Sharing the Dorm with the Enemy from Previous Life

Treat You Breakfast (1)

At this moment, Qin Yuan’s face was approaching.

It was unclear if he wanted to retaliate by rubbing Ruan Qingmu’s head a few times, or if he only looked down and approached to get a clearer look at the seemingly familiar youth’s face under him.

Ruan Qingmu didn’t move and only tilted his head back to meet his gaze.

The moonlight outside the window passed through the sparse tree outside and the patterns of the window lattice shone on Ruan Qingmu’s face, revealing his porcelain white skin and delicate look.

Experimental No. 3’s dormitory conditions were good and the school only needed to shut down the lighting circuit at night. The air conditioner was a four-square wire circuit one and would always be on even at night. Under this quietness, they could hear the extremely low sound from the silent air conditioner.

The indoor temperature was comfortable, but there was still a bit of sweat on Qin Yuan’s forehead and his breathing was a little heavy.

After who knew how much longer, Ruan Qingmu, whose hand was being held down by Qin Yuan’s hand, lightly licked his lips.

In the darkness of the night, the color of his usually light red lips couldn’t be seen clearly. But at this moment, a spring breeze seemed to sweep past the tranquil boys’ dormitory and stirred the clear water of the spring pond.

“Hurry up, if you want to stroke it back. If not, I’m going to go to sleep,” Ruan Qingmu lazily said and slightly squinted his eyes.

Qin Yuan released his hand.

Almost as if he was embarrassed, he rudely grabbed Ruan Qingmu’s wrist, sent it back through the bedside rail, and swiftly placed the mosquito net back to where it was.

In the dimly lit night, Ruan Qingmu seemed to let out a shallow laugh.

After a long time, he softly asked. “Hey, are you asleep?”

Qin Yuan violently turned over and let out a snort.

“I’m tired of eating breakfast in the cafeteria. I’m bored with the food there.” Ruan Qingmu seemed to be talking to himself. “How about we go get breakfast outside tomorrow?”

Qin Yuan didn’t reply but instead, let out a light cough.

“It’ll be my treat to thank you for the notebook.” Ruan Qingmu wasn’t discouraged and reached out to take out his phone. “I’ll set the alarm at six in the morning and wait for you for ten minutes. If you don’t get up, I’ll go by myself.”

Qin Yuan still didn’t utter anything. After a moment, his cell phone screen also lit up.

Ruan Qingmu looked at the glimmer of light reflected on the wall and silently laughed.

In the early August morning, the sky had brightened to greet the new day.

The cell phone’s alarm clock rang and Ruan Qingmu fumbled for his phone in a daze. He just wanted to turn it off as usual, but a soft bowstring suddenly rang in his head*.

*T/N:  Saying he suddenly has a realization.

He suddenly opened his eyes. Looking at his phone, it was precisely six o’clock!

He climbed up in a single movement, feeling slightly dazed. The opposite bed was already empty without anyone in it.

As he raised his head, the bathroom door was opened. Qin Yuan walked out of there. His face was fresh and clean, carrying bright and vibrant feelings. He had also finished changing into the school uniform.

Ruan Qingmu dazedly stretched forward his body from the bedside. “What time did you set the alarm?”

Could it be that he woke up at five o’clock? That early?

Qin Yuan’s phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and he said indifferently, “Wait for you for ten minutes. No more than that.”

Ruan Qingmu stared at him and suddenly laughed. “Okay, okay, okay. Wait for me.”

Last night, he said he would wait for him for ten minutes and Qin Yuan threw his former words back at him now. He was truly a cheapskate.

He quickly climbed down from the bed, hurried to wash his face quickly, hastily put on the school uniform, and picked up his school bag.

“Our class’ Bai Xiaosheng told me there is a ‘Li Ji Steamed Dumpling Soup’ in the alley on the east side of the school that’s incredibly delicious. It’s still early right now and we don’t need to line up if we go now.”

Qin Yuan stood in front of him and looked at him without moving.

Ruan Qingmu grabbed his crutches and excitedly headed out. Seeing Qin Yuan still not moving, he turned his head. “Ah? You’re not going?”

Could it be that it was him that was overthinking? Didn’t people get up early in the morning to study?

Qin Yuan coldly glanced at him, his gaze fell on his chest.

Two buttons weren’t buttoned and the collar was also crooked, revealing a small piece of his astonishingly white chest so that even his collarbone was peeking out from under his shirt.

“Are you sure you want to go out like this?”

Ruan Qingmu looked down in bafflement. What was wrong with the way he dressed?

Qin Yuan reached out with a cold face and fastened all his buttons. “Article No. 17 of the school rules and regulations: dress properly, button tightly fastened, must not change the uniform style arbitrarily, and forbidden to dye hair with an obvious color. Looking like this, you’ll be investigated when you reenter the school gates.”

Ruan Qingmu curled his lips. “You’re lying. I used to enter the school gates like this before and nobody said anything.”

Qin Yuan slightly lifted his eyes and his pair of narrow and sharp eyes gleamed with a flash. “I am the vice minister of the Disciplinary Department. If I say you will be caught, you will be caught.”

Ruan Qingmu: “…”

Was it really good for a shaoxia from a righteous sect to arbitrarily tamper with the rules like this?

There were many day students in the school. Various small restaurants and breakfast stalls in the nearby small alley were very popular.

After all, the alley was a little far from the school gate and it took some time to make a trip to the dumpling restaurant. The boarding students who loved to sleep in didn’t like to come here and they would prefer to run to the cafeteria once they woke up in the morning.

The new junior students haven’t registered yet. Only the sophomore and senior year students had extra classes in the summer break and not many of them were especially keen on running outside to eat breakfast.

When they walked into the alley, the breakfast stalls were open. There were some frequently

visiting students inside each shop; more girls could clearly be seen than boys.

Ruan Qingmu attended his junior year as a day student. He always had his breakfast at home and had never stepped in here before. He looked around. “Li Ji Dumpling… Where is it?”

Qin Yuan also looked a little at a loss. “Don’t know.”

Ruan Qingmu sighed. “Aren’t you boarding at the school? Haven’t you ever come out to eat delicious food before?”

“There’s nothing wrong with cafeteria food.”

“Do you have any idea how boring you are?” Ruan Qingmu lazily put his crutches away. “Is it really the same to eat at the cafeteria and the restaurant? One is to feed the stomach and the other is for recreation.”

Qin Yuan turned and looked at him. Indeed, this person’s crutches were only a decoration as they arrived outside the school and he could perfectly walk around without any hindrance.

“Aren’t you bothered that you have to pretend to be a disabled person every day?”

Ruan Qingmu picked up his crutches and waved them in the air. “I must walk around on crutches for a month. If not, Old Jian will make me go up to the podium and read the self-review letter.”

Qin Yuan said with an indifferent look on his face, “Not because it’s too hot in the physical education class and you want to cool off under the tree shade?”

“Don’t be like this. Don’t you know that an overly smart person will make people stay away from them?”
