Murong Zheng, on the other hand, was a little surprised as he looked at Nan Qiao, who was engrossed in eating without saying a word. His originally calm eyes rippled.
Everyone who had eaten with Murong Zheng before had seen this side of Murong Zheng. They only felt that they could not stand his inhuman eating style because Murong Zheng even asked them to eat like him. Therefore, in the end, they either argued or left the table.
As time pa.s.sed, after everyone found out about Murong Zheng’s way of eating, no one was willing to interact with him anymore.
Compared to those people’s disdainful and surprised gazes, Nan Qiao made Murong Zheng feel very comfortable.
Looking at Nan Qiao eating happily, Murong Zheng felt like he had met someone who was on the same side as him.
Unfortunately, Nan Qiao didn’t sense Murong Zheng’s thoughts at all. Otherwise, she would definitely shake her head crazily to show that she wasn’t that kind of person.
What a joke. She just didn’t want to talk and wanted to leave early after eating.
The two of them seemed to follow the good habit of not speaking during meals and finished the meal in silence.
Nan Qiao took this opportunity to bid farewell to Murong Zheng and asked the chauffeur to pick her up.
Unknowingly, time pa.s.sed quietly. There were only a few days left before school started.
Nan Qiao sat on the bed and dialed the number after thinking for a while.
“Qiaoqiao?” A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone. It was Murong Chen.
Nan Qiao responded. After hesitating for a moment, she revealed her intentions.
“I’d like to change my surname,” she said, then felt the silence on the other side.
When Murong Chen heard Nan Qiao’s words, he subconsciously felt happy.
But then he frowned slightly, not wanting to burden Nan Qiao with anything.
“As long as it’s a name you like.” Murong Chen told the truth. He only hoped that Nan Qiao could grow up happily. As for the name, Murong Chen didn’t want her to feel any psychological pressure or anything.
Hearing Murong Chen’s words, Nan Qiao’s eyes curved, and a little joy suddenly emerged in her heart.
“I want to change it,” she volunteered.
Nan Qiao had thought about this matter. Since the past was in the past, Nan Qiao did not want to harp on it.
Moreover, she had already been in the Murong family for so long and felt everyone’s love for her. This made Nan Qiao want to change her name more.
“Okay.” Seeing Nan Qiao’s persistence, Murong Chen felt very gratified and did not say anything else.
On this day, Nan Qiao was officially renamed Murong Qiao.
After calculating the time, Murong Qiao packed her luggage and arrived at school a day early.
The application she filled in was for Hui University’s economic management major. The dormitory was a.s.signed to the third floor of the student dormitory, Room 316.
Murong Qiao dragged her suitcase and pushed open the door to Room 316.
The conditions in the dormitory were very good. The first thing she saw was a warm color that made her eyes light up. After entering the door, she could see a separate kitchen inside filled with all kinds of electrical appliances. The size of the room was huge enough for four beds to have their own s.p.a.ce. The spot by the window was even equipped with an independent bathroom.
However, Murong Qiao did not expect someone to arrive at the dormitory before her.
“h.e.l.lo! My name is Yang Xin.” Yang Xin, who was sitting at her table, heard the sound of the door being pushed open and turned around to greet her.
She looked curiously at Murong Qiao, who was standing at the door, and sized her up.
“h.e.l.lo.” Murong Qiao nodded in response. “Murong Qiao.”
Murong Qiao looked at the remaining three empty beds and chose the spot far from the door to take out her luggage to pack.
“You’re also studying management?” Yang Xin looked at Murong Qiao curiously.
As soon as she saw Murong Qiao, she felt that she looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen her before. Hence, she could only suppress her doubts. However, this didn’t stop her from wanting to get close to Murong Qiao.
Murong Qiao didn’t turn around but she took the time to agree. “Yes.”
As a newcomer, Murong Qiao subconsciously suppressed some of her emotions when she saw the unfamiliar surroundings. Hence, her answer was a little cold.
However, Yang Xin did not seem to be discouraged by this lack of enthusiasm. After receiving Murong Qiao’s response, she smiled happily. Seeing that she was busy, she shut her mouth and did not say anything else.
The two of them then spent the day tidying their spots and settling down.
The next morning, Yang Xin was woken up by the sunlight shining through the gap of the curtains. She opened her eyes in a daze and found that the person she had just met yesterday was already sitting in front of the table and starting to eat breakfast.
“You, you’re up so early?” She looked at Murong Qiao in surprise.
Yang Xin glanced at her cell phone. It was only seven o’clock!
Was this the routine of a normal university student?
“I’m used to my bed at home.” Murong Qiao narrowed her eyes and didn’t say that she had insomnia last night.
Having gotten used to the Murong Family, she now finally had the chance to experience insomnia after coming to the dormitory. The sense of security that usually surrounded her was no longer there. This unfamiliar and novel sense of independence made Murong Qiao feel a little at a loss.
Murong Qiao, who had insomnia until early in the morning last night, really couldn’t fall asleep. Thus, she simply got up and turned on her computer to write her university plans.
She planned to start a company and run her own business, but the details had not been decided.
This life was a chance for her to make things right so she didn’t want to waste a single second.
In the end, it was already morning when she finished writing. When Murong Qiao came back to her senses, the sky outside had already turned bright.
“I brought you breakfast and placed it on your table.” Murong Qiao waved her hand, indicating for Yang Xin to eat by herself.
After being reminded, Yang Xin realized that her stomach had started to protest as she woke up.
She touched her rumbling stomach and quickly got out of bed in two moves to eat the breakfast Murong Qiao had brought for her.
“Thank you. I’ve already transferred the money to you.” Yang Xin took a bite of the bun, her voice m.u.f.fled.
She did not expect Murong Qiao to bring her breakfast. For a moment, her impression of her soared like a rocket.
Today was the day before school started, and it was also the most lively time.
Yang Xin could already hear the sounds of people walking outside while they ate. There would probably be more sounds by noon.
Fortunately, the door was of good quality so the soundproofing was not bad. The noise outside was isolated and not loud enough to be a disturbance.
However, it was a different matter when the door was pushed open.
“May I ask if this is 316?” There was a hint of coldness in the gentle voice.
Murong Qiao also looked over and saw that two people had completely occupied the entrance.
The person on the left had black hair and bangs. She even had a pair of gla.s.ses resting on the bridge of her nose. She looked a little cold and made people feel that she was not easy to get close to. However, at a glance, she looked like the kind of person who read a lot.
As for the person on the right… Murong Qiao’s gaze landed on the other party’s fair face, and a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes.
She was the one who had b.u.mped into Nan Kang that day.
Murong Qiao’s memory was good when it came to remembering people, so she immediately recognized her.
However, her gaze seemed to be a little direct, making Zheng Yue nervous. She pursed her lips and felt a little uncomfortable.
“Excuse me, is there something on my face?” Zheng Yue asked her, but her voice was so soft that it was almost impossible to hear what she was saying.
Her unfamiliar reaction made Murong Qiao come back to her senses. She quickly revealed a friendly smile and instantly diluted the atmosphere.
“Nothing.”
This way, all four spots of the dormitory room were taken. Everyone then introduced their names to each other.
The one wearing gla.s.ses was Jiang Weiwei, and the one Murong Qiao was staring at was Zheng Yue..
