Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Your Uncle is Really Good to You
Fanxing Apartment is right at the East Gate of Imperial University, Ye Li jogged all the way until she entered the apartment building, her heart pounding rapidly with no signs of calming down.
She pushed the door open and leaned against it, gasping for breath.
Lu Xiaoxiao poked her head out from the balcony, her face full of surprise as she asked, "Ye Li, what happened to you?"
"Nothing, nothing..."
Touching her burning face, Ye Li shook her head, "Maybe, I ran too fast."
After taking a few deep breaths to stabilize her breath, Ye Li turned around again, her gaze fixed.
The apartment, already bright and clean, radiated warmth now.
It showed no signs of the mess from when they moved in on Friday noon.
On the desk, textbooks, homework, and guidebooks were neatly organized by categories.
The table shimmered bright enough to reflect someone’s face.
In the closet, clothes of various lengths were either hung or folded by color.
Even her socks, Lu Xiaoxiao had organized them in pairs in storage boxes, clearly visible.
A glance was all it took to soothe anyone’s OCD.
Turning back around, on the spacious balcony, a small white round table was flanked by a pair of exceedingly comfortable lazy sofas.
In a basket on the table, red apples, green winter dates, and two plump persimmons stood out.
Strikingly eye-catching.
The chilly apartment she left on Friday had transformed in a blink of an eye into a cozy and adorable girl’s nest.
Ye Li stared in awe, "Xiaoxiao, you are too capable... You make me feel so embarrassed!"
"If that’s the case, I should be the one feeling most embarrassed!"
Lu Xiaoxiao, after hanging up the clothes, reached out to pull Ye Li, "Without you, I’d still be miserably alone at 620. You provide the funds, so I put in the work, that way, I feel a bit better too! So please, super incredibly cute Lizi, accept it with grace and peace of mind, okay?"
"Okay!"
Ye Li nodded and opened her arms for a big hug with Lu Xiaoxiao, "Let’s love and cherish each other well for the coming year and a half."
As she spoke, Ye Li’s stomach growled.
Lu Xiaoxiao, startled, "It’s already eight, haven’t you had dinner yet?"
"Forgot."
Ye Li touched her nose. "Do you have anything to eat here?"
"Absolutely!"
Waving her hand for Ye Li to gather her small suitcase, Lu Xiaoxiao briskly got busy.
She pulled out a small rice cooker from under the table.
From the cabinet, she took out hot pot ingredients and box-packed vegetables from the supermarket.
From the fridge, she took out frozen fatty beef slices.
When the hot pot ingredients and water started boiling, the air filled with a spicy and savory aroma.
As the meat and vegetables cooked in the bubbling pot, it was ready in a moment.
Watching Ye Li, whose eyes were nearly popping out, Lu Xiaoxiao belatedly realized, "Lizi, can you handle spicy food?"
"Absolutely!"
Ye Li nodded vigorously.
Fanxing Apartment is a graduate apartment, with no common dormitory rules like lights out or no cooking allowed.
With one lazy sofa per person, the two sat cross-legged, bowls in hand, eating to their heart’s content.
When Ye Li’s phone started buzzing, knowing it must be Yanci calling, she answered, "What’s up?"
"Ah Li, didn’t you realize we forgot something very important?"
"Dinner, right? I’ve already started eating, my adorable roommate made a spicy mini hot pot."
"I had some food sent over, you guys eat."
"Okay, bye..."
A few minutes after hanging up, there was a knock on the door.
Winking at Lu Xiaoxiao and claiming a surprise feast from the heavens, Ye Li went to open the door.
She then carried in two large bags.
Not only that, the woman who delivered the meal also took the opportunity to fill up the fridge.
Once the door closed, the room quieted down.
Looking at the packed fridge.
Then at the logo on the bags.
Lu Xiaoxiao stared at Ye Li, dazed, "Lizi, this is..."
"My uncle sent it."
Ye Li had a sly smile.
With her gossip instincts instantly dispersed, Lu Xiaoxiao’s face was filled with envy, "Lizi, your uncle is really good to you!"
