SFS Chapter 130: Are all my roommates from my past life still here?
Chapter 130: Are all my roommates from my past life still here?
The creaking sound of the door opening silenced the three of them instantly, their eyes fixed on their roommate who had arrived late.
The boy on the lower bunk closest to the door, with dark skin and a muscular build like a calf, reacted the fastest. He jumped off the bed in a flash and strode over to Ye Fan in a few steps.
With a warm, overly familiar smile, he snatched Ye Fan's backpack without a word: "Brother! You've finally arrived! On the last day of registration, we thought there were only three of us in 208! The journey must have been tiring!"
Ye Fan's gaze fell on the enthusiastic, dark-skinned face with a slight Sichuan accent. His pupils suddenly contracted, and he blurted out, "Holy crap! Old Li? What are you doing here?"
He then instinctively glanced quickly at the other two—the tall, composed boy on the upper bunk by the window, and the well-dressed boy on the lower bunk inside, with a trendy urban vibe... Ki Yu-ho? Seok Kai?
Ye Fan was completely dumbfounded!
My mind went completely blank!
A tremendous sense of absurdity and temporal disorientation swept over me.
How could it be them?
These are his three roommates from his university days in his previous life! But in this life, he clearly applied to Nanjing University, while they should have met at another university in their previous life!
Could it be that the butterfly effect brought about by my rebirth has so strangely entangled the threads of fate together once again?
Li Yifeng was startled by Ye Fan's reaction. He scratched the back of his head, looking bewildered and shocked: "Ah! Bro...brother? You know me? You even know my surname is Li? And...why can't I be here?"
He was completely confused.
Ye Fan snapped back to reality, realizing his lapse in composure. He quickly suppressed the turmoil in his heart, replaced it with a natural smile, and laughed it off, saying, "Haha, just kidding! There's a list of dorm members posted by the dorm supervisor at the entrance! Li Yifeng, Ji Yuhao, Shi Kai, I saw them all! I just wanted to liven things up a bit since we just arrived!"
Li Yifeng suddenly realized, slapping his thigh: "Hey! You scared me! I thought I'd run into my long-lost brother!"
He laughed heartily and formally introduced himself: "Let's get to know each other again! My name is Li Yifeng, from Sichuan Province. You've heard of the Shu Road Mountains, right? Climbing hills and crossing slopes is a piece of cake for me!"
He patted his chest.
Then, pointing to the tall boy in the upper bunk by the window: "This is Shi Kai, a true Northeasterner! From the black soil of Northeast China!"
Shi Kai chuckled, leaning halfway out of bed and waving in a hearty Northeastern accent, "Brother, welcome to 208! We're family now, so let me know if you need anything! Please take care of me!"
Before Li Yifeng could introduce the last person, the stylishly dressed boy on the lower bunk inside had already nimbly flipped over and jumped off the bed.
He was about 175 cm tall, with fair skin, dressed in trendy clothes, wearing a bright Casio watch on his wrist, and his hair was permed with a delicate texture, giving him the sophisticated look of an urban boy.
He walked up to Ye Fan, looked him up and down, then exaggeratedly clutched his chest, feigning heartbreak: "It's all over! I thought my handsome looks were my for the crown of the most handsome guy in room 208! But then you showed up, and your looks are off the charts! I can only tearfully settle for second place!"
He extended his hand, a genuine smile on his face: "Hello! My name is Ji Yuhao, a native of Nanjing!"
Ye Fan reached out and shook his hand, jokingly saying, "Hello, Brother Chicken!"
"Chicken Bro?" Ji Yuhao was taken aback, then burst into laughter: "Haha, that's an interesting nickname! Okay, I accept it!"
Ye Fan introduced himself casually: "Hello, my name is Ye Fan, and I come from Fujian Province."
Ye Fan raised an eyebrow and smiled broadly. He had met his three roommates from his previous life once again in this life.
And so, the wonderful university life officially began!
Meanwhile, inside the girls' dormitory building.
Pei Yi'an quietly tidied her desk, her movements unhurried and with a unique, cool rhythm.
Her roommate, Zhao Peilan, was sitting cross-legged on the bed, resting her chin on her hand, looking at Pei Yi'an's perfect profile and aloof temperament with an almost artistic appreciation.
"Yi'an, you're so beautiful! Let me tell you, once classes officially start, all those boys in the classroom will be swarming around you like flies... cough cough, like bees to a flower! But don't worry! From today onwards, I, Zhao Peilan, am your chief protector and spokesperson! I'll shield you from those unwanted suitors!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Yi'an simply stopped what he was doing, turned his head to Zhao Peilan and gave her a faint, polite smile, without replying.
This distant politeness only added to its aloofness, making it seem unapproachable.
Just as Zhao Peilan finished speaking, her phone chimed with a notification of a new Weibo message.
She immediately picked it up and saw that someone had refuted her point of view in a social news article she had just commented on.
Zhao Peilan instantly switched into battle mode, her eyebrows furrowing: "Hey! You dare to challenge me!"
Her fingers flew across the screen like lightning, almost leaving afterimages. The rapid typing was incessant, her words sharp and her logic meticulous (in her own view), instantly refuting the other party completely.
He was clearly one of the first generation of Weibo "keyboard warriors," a fighter who would not yield an inch in the online debate arena!
"KO!" Zhao Peilan triumphantly tossed her hair, as if she had won a tough battle.
Not yet satisfied, she opened the Nanjing University campus forum app and started browsing it with great interest.
"Let me see what's happening at school today...wait, why is the whole screen filled with the same person?"
On the forum's homepage, eight out of ten featured posts and pinned hot posts all bore the same name in their titles—"Ye Fan"! The content was invariably:
"Shocking! National top scorer Ye Fan has appeared in person! He's devastatingly handsome!"
"[Pictures don't lie!] We spotted the top-scoring student arriving in an Audi A4! Two beautiful freshmen appeared to be in the back seat!"
"Which building is Building 208 of the Business Administration Department located in? I need help urgently!"
"Rational discussion: With his looks, intelligence, and family background, is Ye Fan the next generation's ceiling at Nanjing University?"
Zhao Peilan scoffed, "Tch~ That's all hype! The highest-scoring student in history, and outrageously handsome? These people on the forum just stir up trouble all day long, they've definitely exaggerated! He's probably just a bookworm with glasses, someone the student council has been praising for recruitment purposes!"
Another roommate, Gu Ruolin, peeked down. She was wearing a face mask and her voice was a little muffled: "It should be true. The sophomore who posted the message is a student council member in charge of freshman registration! She must have seen Ye Fan in person! She has very high standards; for her to post three updates exclaiming 'handsome,' he must really be handsome!"
