Chapter 1213 Dormitory

Lin Mo and his friends were the most excited about the news that Lao Zhao was coming back. The class monitor and He Xiaoyue, on the other hand, were indifferent because for the past three years, they had only been classmates with Lin Mo and his four roommates.

In other words, the class monitor often paid attention to Director Wang, so he knew a bit about their dormitory. He Xiaoyue, being a girl, had no interest in them, so naturally she didn't pay much attention to them, and their relationship was just so-so.

The reason they are able to stay together now is entirely because the class monitor and Wang Chu are together, and they have become the link. In addition, Miss Yuan is also there to keep things in order, and that's how the group was formed.

As for Miss Yuan, she was quite curious about Old Zhao, and even had some expectations. There was no way around it; just by looking at these three abstract figures, she knew that Old Zhao was definitely not simple.

Lin Mo, Chuan Mei, and Wang Chu are a trio: one has won over Liu Ruyan, one has transformed herself into a woman, and one has gotten together with the class monitor. They are practically the studio's most formidable trio.

Looking at the groups, Lin Mo, her, and Zhang Wei are the Eternal Trident, while Wang Chu and Chuan Mei are the Library Twins. Each of them has a brilliant record, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are the shining stars of humanity.

It's said that where there's a Crouching Dragon, there's bound to be a Young Phoenix. Since the three of them are like this, it's obvious that Old Zhao has something special about him.

As the saying goes, "When a lowly mountain and stinky water meet a kindred spirit, and when a poor mountain and bad water meet twin stars," Miss Yuan was naturally very curious.

On June 1st, Chuanmei and her friends received their salaries at the studio, went to the kindergarten and embarrassed themselves, then confirmed what they needed to do the next day, and everyone immediately relaxed.

Despite having so many happy events happening at once, no one planned to go out and have fun today, mainly because they had expended too much energy at kindergarten this morning.

In the afternoon, after staying at the studio until 5 p.m., Miss Yuan suggested finding a place to have a barbecue to celebrate. Everyone naturally agreed, and Chuanmei was treating. Don't ask why; it's because Li Shiya's income had increased dramatically this month.

After dinner, Miss Yuan suggested going to her place to play some games, but everyone declined the offer.

"Why? What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Miss Yuan asked, looking puzzled.

It's summer now, and the sun has just set at seven o'clock in the evening; it's not completely dark yet.

"Hey, some of my classmates have come back, so a few of us are planning to go back to school to visit. It's not too hot right now, so we'll take a walk and see our classmates while we're at it," Lin Mo said with a smile.

He hadn't thought much about this before, and his relationship with most of his classmates was just so-so, neither good nor bad. But after hearing what his senior, Shen Qingnan, said during the day, his thoughts changed.

Among his university classmates, although he was only so-so with most of them, there were no particularly bad relationships or people who looked down on each other. Since the actual graduation date was only a few days away, he didn't want his graduation to be so hasty. He wanted to take one more look at each other if he could.

Even if not everyone comes back today, it's okay. Going back to the dorm is just a way to relax.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement, clearly sharing the same sentiment. This was especially true for the class monitor and He Xiaoyue, who had some close classmates who wanted to visit them.

"Alright, I'll head back now. See you tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Miss Yuan didn't press the matter. Although she was usually quite abstract, she was, after all, someone who had attended university and gone through the experience of graduating from university.

I might not usually pay attention to it, but whenever I think back to the time when I graduated from university, I always have a strange feeling, as if I miss it a little.

Since that's the case, she won't go with them today.

With that, Miss Yuan waved her hand and then skipped and hopped towards the residential area. Once she disappeared from sight, everyone exchanged glances and then smiled at each other.

Lin Mo: "Let's go, let's go back to school for a stroll!"

Sichuan girl: "You know what, you really do want to go back, haha!"

Director Wang: "It's been a long time since I've taken a walk on campus at night!"

Class monitor: "Seven girls came back from the girls' dormitory today, and nine boys came back from the boys' dormitory. It's not many, but it's not bad. They should all be back by tomorrow night!"

Indeed, for the defense on the 3rd, most people would return on the 2nd, stay in their dorm overnight, and then participate in the defense over the next two days. Only a minority would return on the 1st.

Among them, Chuanmei was the first to move out; she really hadn't come back to stay at night for a long time.

Lin Mo was next, followed by the three class leaders, who had only moved out of the dormitory after the New Year, and several months had passed in the blink of an eye.

Soon, the group of five entered the school through the back gate. The school was not quiet at this time of night. The playground was full of male and female students taking walks and exercising, and the basketball court was also full. The atmosphere was very lively.

In fact, because some of the senior students returned today, there were more people on campus.

"It's still the same as before," Lin Mo said with a smile as he looked at the scene before him.

The class monitor nodded: "That's normal. The earth won't stop spinning just because someone is gone, and the school won't close just because there's one less student."

People come and people go, it's just that this time it's our turn to leave.

Before their senior year, they watched their seniors attend various job fairs, then leave their dorms with their luggage, then squeeze in time to come back for their thesis defense, and then rush to attend the graduation ceremony, leaving quietly with their diplomas.

It's as if they never existed in college. If nothing unexpected happens, those senior students they've known since freshman year who have already graduated must have become outstanding adults in society by now.

The group chatted as they walked. Although they hadn't officially graduated, they now viewed the younger students from a different perspective. It was strange; before, they hadn't felt anything special about these younger students, but now they felt as if they were innocent children.

The girl from Sichuan kept her head down, occasionally interjecting furtively, afraid of being recognized by passing students. After all, the garlic sprout controversy had just subsided, and she really didn't want to be surrounded.

Soon, the group of five crossed the bustling playground and walked along the school's main road. The ginkgo trees on both sides of the road were lush and green, and the cool breeze blowing in the evening was refreshing. Occasionally, they could even spot couples cuddling and whispering sweet nothings in some secluded corner.

They exude youthful energy, just like they did in their freshman and sophomore years of college, seemingly unchanged.

When the group arrived at the fork in the road between the male and female dormitories, they all paused for a moment.

It felt like it had been a long time since they had last returned together at night and then parted ways here, so long that it made them feel a little dazed.

"Well... it seems we should all go back to our own homes!" the Sichuan girl said with a smile.

Wang: "Squad leader, no~ Squad leader, don't go~"

Seeing this, Lin Mo kicked him and said, "Get lost! What kind of life-or-death situation are you making me do? We're just going back to our respective dorms, not going to be separated forever. Besides, you two have moved all your dorm belongings, so you'll definitely have to go back to the apartment complex tonight. Stop acting crazy here, are you out of your mind?!"

Wang Chu:

The class monitor and He Xiaoyue laughed non-stop.

"Alright, alright, let's go then. We'll go back and take a look too. You guys should go back early as well!" the squad leader waved his hand and said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo and Chuan Mei gave each other an OK sign, and then each of them grabbed one of Wang Chu's arms and headed straight for the boys' dormitory.

"Look at this, it's different when someone has a partner who cares about you. They even miss you when they go back to the dorm."

Seeing the three of them walk away, He Xiaoyue couldn't help but speak sourly from the side.

The class monitor rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm happy to. What, are you jealous? Envious that you're finding a partner too!"

"Then forget it. I'd rather trade ten years of being single for this kind of high monthly income, hehe!" He Xiaoyue laughed.

This month's income truly made her incredibly happy, almost unreal. If she could maintain this level of earning power, she could buy a car and a house in just a few years. Men would only hinder her earning speed.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo and his two companions quickly arrived at the dormitory building. Director Wang had also returned to normal, and the entire dormitory building was no longer pitch black as before, with scattered lights now present.

When the three of them came in, they saw the dormitory supervisor on duty, just like before. In fact, the three of them felt as if they had never gone out for an internship.

Once they reached the second floor, they found themselves in their major's dormitory area. All three classes were located on the second floor, but before they even arrived at their own class's dormitory area, they were recognized by students from the other two classes.

"Holy crap, Li Shiya!"

"Damn, Li Chuan, you're awesome! Millions of followers, a big internet celebrity, come on, let's take a picture together!"

"Hey bro, you smell amazing!"

"Brother Shou is here too!"

"What 'Brother Hand'? Isn't this Old Lin?"

With a gasp, the students who had returned quickly poured out of the dormitory and surrounded the three of them.

Although not many people came back today, there were still students from three classes and even other majors who came to see what was going on, which made the main dormitory building quite lively.

The appearance of the Sichuan girl, in particular, filled the dormitory with howls and shouts, with everyone arguing and yelling about how delicious the food was.

All nine members of their class came out, and everyone was very happy to see their old classmates.

"Gangzi, Dawei, how have you been lately?"

"Old Yang, long time no see! Where are you working now?"

The three were surrounded by classmates who greeted them warmly and naturally.

When university started last year, Li Shiya wasn't very famous yet. In addition, he kept his identity a secret until all his classmates left. Only then did his classmates realize that their school had produced a big internet celebrity.

On the other hand, the class monitor and He Xiaoyue received similar treatment, since many people already knew that they were now employees of Li Shiya's studio.

The reunion of classmates made them feel as if they had returned to the past.
