“What if fate doesn’t let the two of you meet for the rest of your life?”
“Scram! Don’t curse me…”
Returning to Room 501.
Leaning casually on his seat, Lin Jiage took out his phone and began to order some food for delivery.
Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai also stopped their bickering at this point.
They glanced at Lin Jiage for a moment before trading gazes.
“It feels like something’s wrong with our boss?”
“Yeah, I felt it too…” Xia Shangzhou said. He backtracked to the door, pushed it open with one hand—an imitation of Lin Jiage’s usual habit—and walked into the dormitory room again. As he walked past the bathroom, he suddenly realized what was wrong with Lin Jiage. He quickly shot a glance at the bathroom.
Noticing Xia Shangzhou’s actions, Lu Benlai also turned to look at the bathroom. They stared at the bathroom for two whole seconds before speaking together with uncanny harmony, “I got it, our boss didn’t wash his hands!”
“Our boss is a clean freak, and he hates being touched by other people. Even if he shook hands with someone out of politeness, he would have gone to the bathroom to wash his hands. He touched that girl’s face with his hand, but he didn’t wash it after returning to the dorm room!”
“Something’s not right…”
“Our boss isn’t interested in my goddess, is he?”
My goddess… My…
After ordering the delivery, Lin Jiage was just about to make payment when his finger suddenly stopped. He turned around to look at Xia Shangzhou and said, “You’re picking up the delivery downstairs later.”
“Why? Boss, I’m the one who picked it up yesterday. Didn’t we agree that Little Lailai and I would take turns each day? This isn’t fair to me. I obj—”
Before Xia Shangzhou could finish his sentence, Lin Jiage shook his phone and said calmly, “Since that’s the case, I guess I’ll just have to cancel your share…”
Saying this, Lin Jiage began to tap on the screen once more.
“Alright, alright! I’ll pick it up later. I’ll go tomorrow and the day after tomorrow too. No matter how many days you want me to do it, I’ll do it without a word of complaint!” Xia Shangzhou hurriedly changed his attitude.
Hearing those words, Lin Jiage stopped in the middle of canceling Xia Shangzhou’s share and started paying the bill instead. At the same time, he remarked with a troubled voice, “It doesn’t seem right to make you pick up the deliveries every time…”
Fearing that he might be deprived of his portion in the future, Xia Shangzhou was preparing to reply with a determined ‘ It’s fine, I love picking up deliveries more than anything in the world ‘. But then after completing the payment, Lin Jiage tossed his phone to the side of the table and relaxed against the back of his chair, saying, “…but since you seem to like picking up deliveries so much, I guess I’ll be troubling you for this semester’s deliveries then!”
After saying those words, Lin Jiage automatically ignored Lu Benlai’s gleeful laughter and Xia Shangzhou’s cries of agony. He closed his eyes and lazily took a brief nap.
Since there were lessons the following morning, Lin Jiage didn’t head to the hospital that night.
After having dinner, Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai were called by their professor to do some menial labor once again.
Lin Jiage went to the running track to run two rounds alone in order to aid his digestion. After which, he returned back to his dormitory room, and just as he was about to take a shower, his phone suddenly rang— ding dong .
