Senior Sister, Shut Up!

Chapter 75: I’ll Have to Spend the Night at Your Place

At 10 p.m., the atmosphere in Jiang Miao’s dorm room was no different from usual.

Wang Xin was in the bathroom, taking his usual half-hour shower. His roommates had long grown used to it.

So Jiang Miao wasn’t worried about Wang Xin coming out early.

The real issue now was when Xun Liang would visit another room.

“Brother Jiang, the basketball semifinals have been rescheduled to Tuesday afternoon,” Xun Liang said while taking out two bags of chips from his snack stash and tossing one to Jiang Miao. “If you’re going home during National Day, make sure you don’t leave on Tuesday.”

“I probably won’t go back for National Day.” Jiang Miao shook his head. He caught the bag of chips and opened it to avoid raising any suspicions.

“I definitely have to go home for National Day.” Xun Liang sighed, his face full of frustration. “It’s so annoying. I don’t want to go home.”

Hearing this, Jiang Miao remembered that Xun Liang seemed to have some sort of social anxiety when it came to his family.

After living with him for a month, Jiang Miao was almost confused by this guy’s lively and outgoing personality and had almost forgotten how quiet and withdrawn he had been when he first moved into the dormitory.

“Aren’t your parents pretty good to you?” Jiang Miao asked, puzzled. “They even sent you to school together.”

“Brother Jiang, you don’t understand.” Xun Liang looked helpless. “My elder sister is the beloved apple in their eyes. Every time I go home, I lose all my standing in the family.”

“You have a sister? Biological sister?” Jiang Miao found it strange.

In their generation, especially in cities, only children were more common for certain reasons.

“… Sort of.” Xun Liang clearly didn’t want to talk about this. After chatting for a while, he picked up a bag of chicken claws, stood up, and headed for the door. “I’m going out to visit the other rooms.”

Seeing Xun Liang about to leave, Jiang Miao immediately stopped making small talk and anxiously watched him go.

Meanwhile, on Jiang Miao’s bed, Su Huaizhou was lying there with her face buried in his pillow, with only her eyes visible as she listened to him chatting with his roommate.

Despite the air conditioner running in the room, she felt hot and sweaty.

Under her was Junior Brother’s bed, under her head was his pillow, and beside her was his blanket. Her nose could smell his scent…

She felt as if he were enveloping her, and her head was spinning.

It wasn’t until she heard the door closing that she snapped back to reality.

“Senior Sister, hurry, hurry!” Jiang Miao’s urging voice came from below the bed.

Not daring to linger on his bed any longer, Su Huaizhou quickly turned over, sat up, and moved towards the ladder.

But this time, just as she stretched her leg halfway out, the sound of the room door’s keyhole turning rang out again.

Jiang Miao: “???”

What the hell? Are you kidding me?!

Su Huaizhou: “…”

This time, without needing his reminder, she quietly retracted her leg.

For some reason, deep down, she even felt a little… happy.

Meanwhile, Jiang Miao’s throat went dry as he watched Chen Haoshang walk in with an exhausted expression. He was at a complete loss for what to do…

Wang Xin always took long showers, and Xun Liang would often go out to visit other doom rooms when he had nothing to do.

But Chen Haoshang? As soon as he returned, he would immediately turn on his computer and play games. His bed was between Jiang Miao’s and the door, so there was no possibility of sneaking past him.

With Chen Haoshang back, it was nearly impossible for Senior Sister to leave without revealing she had come to Jiang Miao’s room.

Sure enough, when Chen Haoshang saw Jiang Miao standing strangely in the middle of the room without doing anything, he didn’t bother to ask. He merely nodded at him before sitting in his chair and turning on his computer.

This attitude was a big improvement from before.

At least now, Chen Haoshang acknowledged Jiang Miao. Previously, when neither of them knew the other’s secret, Chen Haoshang had never greeted him.

Jiang Miao roughly guessed that Chen Haoshang’s family might not be well-off, but asking him directly wouldn’t yield any answers.

He had tried casually asking Ding Ning during a debate team meeting before, but the petite girl refused to say a word.

But now wasn’t the time to get tangled up in this!

Jiang Miao looked at Chen Haoshang, who had already sat down, with a headache. Countless thoughts turned in his mind as he wondered if there was any way to get him to leave for a short while.

In the end, he decided to lay his cards on the table with Chen Haoshang!

Anyway, he already knew about him ‘dating’ Senior Sister, so it didn’t matter if he knew more.

Besides, unlike Xun Liang, Chen Haoshang was very tight-lipped. Ever since they discovered each other’s secret, he hadn’t gossiped to anyone.

After making up his mind, Jiang Miao took a deep breath, prepared to reveal the special situation in the room to Chen Haoshang.

But suddenly, Xun Liang burst back into the room, scaring Jiang Miao so much that he jumped up and quickly sat back in his chair.

“Huh?” Xun Liang looked at Jiang Miao, who was still at his desk, in surprise. “Brother Jiang, what’s up with you today? Aren’t you usually in bed watching… stuff by now?”

“Who’s watching stuff?!” Jiang Miao was anxious.

Senior Sister is still on my bed.

How can this idiot Dog slander me like this?

“Come on, don’t be like that.” Xun Liang sat down in his chair with a grin. “Good stuff is meant to be shared, you know? I won’t tell Senior Sister.”

Jiang Miao: “…”

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: You have that kind of hobby, huh?

Su Huaizhou lay back down on Jiang Miao’s bed, listening to him and Xun Liang talking nonsense, and was actually in the mood to tease him.

Jiang Miao looked at his phone, speechless.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: I get in bed every day to write! Senior Sister, please focus. We still have a serious matter to deal with.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: But I don’t think I can escape now.

Su Huaizhou bit her lip as a rather bold idea popped into her mind. Her heart, which had just started to calm down, suddenly raced again.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: I’ll think of something else…

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Is there really a way?

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: … Seems like no.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Why don’t we wait until they’re all asleep, then you can sneak out?

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Are you silly? At that time, the dormitory doors will be locked.

Jiang Miao suddenly became worried again.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: How did you get here in the first place?

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: I’m a class assistant, so I just told the auntie downstairs.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: But if you don’t go back down, won’t she be suspicious?

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: She isn’t watching the door all the time. If I leave, I won’t specially say goodbye to her. She might assume I’ve already left.

Seeing this message, Jiang Miao breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he saw the next message from Senior Sister, his entire body instantly stiffened.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: From the looks of it, I’ll have to spend the night at your place…

Jiang Miao stared at this message, not knowing how to respond. He subconsciously gulped hard.

Senior Sister…

Tonight…

Is going to spend the night at my place?

What kind of magical development is this?

Is this the tragedy caused by an egg pancake?

He hadn’t even succeeded in pursuing Senior Sister yet, but now they were suddenly fast-forwarding to sharing a bed?

Jiang Miao looked conflicted. At this moment, the bathroom door opened.

After showering, Wang Xin came out and sat back in his seat.

Jiang Miao looked around. At this moment, all four roommates were present in the room.

But apart from Jiang Miao, none of the other three had any clue that there was another person in the room.

But before the excitement, nervousness, and anticipation could settle in his chest, a new message came from Senior Sister, leaving him stunned on the spot.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Um… Junior Brother…

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: I-I… need to go to the bathroom…
