Chapter 425: 313. Meet Again Once More

My head... My head hurts so much.

The light tore through the darkness before her, and Zhou Sinin couldn’t help but frown, lifting her left hand to rub her eyes.

Overhead was the dormitory’s bed curtain, pull aside a corner and you could see the sunlight and the vast expanse of the ceiling.

What did I do last night?

Oh right.

I went to KTV with my roommates, we had a blast singing until late, and we mixed drinks.

Beer and hard liquor together, who knows how much I drank.

Zhou Sinin pressed one hand to her forehead and used the other to hold onto the ladder, carefully making her way down.

Turns out I’m hungover.

"Ning Bao, you’re awake?"

Inside dorm room 601, some people were up early while others were still sound asleep in their beds.

"It was our idea to go singing last night."

"And we didn’t ask for your opinion in advance, we just ordered that drinks package, so we might as well go Dutch."

"The Dutch money has already been transferred to your Alipay."

Song Wan stood in front of the dormitory’s full-length mirror, smiling at Zhou Sinin as she spoke.

In fact, the atmosphere in Zhou Sinin’s dormitory was quite pleasant.

Even though everyone’s financial status was very different, the other three roommates were not the type to take unfair advantage.

If Zhou Sinin didn’t offer to treat, everyone honestly settled up Dutch style, and nobody tried to duck out of it.

"Huh? That’s so polite of you!"

Zhou Sinin blinked, unlocked her phone, and sure enough, there were three transfers received.

Flooded with returning memories, the events of last night rushed back into her mind.

I’m clearly out of money, aren’t I?

No, that’s not right!

I used Lu Jincheng’s card!

Will he find out?

If he finds out, what will he think?

Blocking his ex-girlfriend, yet shamelessly using his bank card?

I’m doomed.

Fully sober now, Zhou Sinin instinctively covered her face, at a loss for words.

How wonderful it would be if I could turn back time.

But even if time could be reversed, if I hadn’t gotten drunk last night, would I still have used Lu Jincheng’s bank card?

It seems...

I probably would have anyway.

Under everyone’s gaze, there was no other option besides using the card.

Was I supposed to call someone for a loan at 1 or 2 in the morning?

Unscientific.

Ask family for living expenses?

Unreasonable.

Zhou Sinin took a deep breath, shook her dizzy head, and tried to clear the messy thoughts out of her mind.

The money’s already spent.

What’s the point in thinking so much!

Lu Jincheng embezzled so much money from the company, what’s wrong with spending a bit of his!

After all, when he gave me the credit card, it was for me to spend.

It’s just that out of pity for his hard-earned money, I was reluctant to spend it myself.

Now that I’ve started this, I’ll stop worrying about it.

Spend it fiercely!

Why wouldn’t I spend it?

To save money for him to enjoy life with that green tea bitch Guan Yongyi?

Zhou Sinin went from wishing she could crawl into a hole to gradually easing up, to self-justifying logic in less than ten minutes.

"So, my sisters, I have a suggestion!"

Having thought it through, the inner conflict vanished.

Zhou Sinin took a breath, stood up from the chair, and raised her voice.

"What’s up?"

"Zhou Sinin, keep it down..."

"Seriously!"

With her shout, the entire dormitory awoke from their hangover-induced slumber.

"Tomorrow we’re off for the holiday and heading home; I haven’t treated everyone to a meal yet. Let’s go, I’ve arranged a buffet!"

Zhou Sinin smiled and extended her hand, making a ’let’s go’ gesture to her roommates.

"Hurry up, I might not stay in the dorm much next semester. Cherish the opportunity, let’s have a meal together!"

"Okay, okay!"

...

"Table for four, thank you."

The group arrived at a seafood buffet not too far away, conveniently located at the junction between Jiang City’s Finance University and Nanhu University.

The restaurant’s prices were not expensive, just over a hundred per person, quite standard.

With enough familiarity, tired of pinching pennies every day, Zhou Sinin pulled out her ex-boyfriend’s bank card and once again entered the six-digit PIN.

Even the process of thinking had been skipped.

Each person, with plates big and small in hand, found seats in the open area of the dining hall.

"Sining, did you fight with your boyfriend?"

"..."

On the topic of her heartache, Zhou Sinin pursed her lips, remaining silent.

"Which couple doesn’t fight? Actually, we all noticed it last night. You were there singing sad love songs all by yourself, completely adorable."

"Yes, we were afraid to ask because we thought you were upset."

"What’s going on?"

Seeing Zhou Sinin’s mood seemed much improved, Song Wan and Jiang Fengting started a lively back and forth, asking questions almost like a comic dialogue act.

"It wasn’t really a fight... uh, we broke up."

Zhou Sinin thought for a moment before speaking.

"Ah, what, you broke up?"

Song Wan was visibly shocked, her expression one of disbelief.

"How can you break up? Weren’t you two starting a company together? What will happen to the company, are you not going to do it anymore?"

Zhou Sinin and her partner had practically become the model couple of the entire class.

One pair was the aspiring lovebirds, the other the quintessential golden match.

Each with their own strengths.

But in terms of stability, nobody would have thought Zhou Sinin’s couple would suddenly break up.

After all, they had so many ties together, how could it be possible?

"Starting a company isn’t child’s play; we have employees waiting to be fed, we have to keep going."

Zhou Sinin shook her head, indicating it wasn’t like that.

"What is this then, divorced but still living together?"

Jiang Fengting, clutching her teppan beef, suddenly burst out with a clever one-liner.

"Pfft..."

Another roommate couldn’t help but laugh.

"Sorry, I didn’t mean to; I just couldn’t hold it in."

"Forget it, sisters, let’s hold back on the teasing, don’t rile her up, it’s a waste of feelings!"

Song Wan was the first to wave her hand, with an unceasing smile on her face.

"She’ll probably get back together with him in a few days."

"We won’t get back together, it’s impossible with him."

Seeing her roommates all chuckling, Zhou Sinin couldn’t help but exclaim in frustration.

Her tone was firm and decisive.

"When people break up, it’s usually no more contact ever."

Jiang Fengting wisely inserted a comment while eating her fruit.

"You meet up with your exes every so often, how can you not get back together!"

"Don’t jinx it, will you?"

"What’s that? Phoenix rising from the ashes?"

"No way!"

Zhou Sinin persisted.

"We haven’t seen each other for a long time!"

"And we won’t be seeing each other in the future, he’s not involved in the company anymore."

"Really or fak..."

Sitting opposite Zhou Sinin, Song Wan was about to ask with a smile, but the last word got stuck in her throat.

Her eyes widened, mouth sealed in a thin line, showing an ambiguous smile.

It was lunchtime, and the dining hall was getting busier and noisier.

The brunette girl’s voice was neither loud nor soft amidst the crowd.

Yet, a certain passerby was all ears.

He tapped Zhou Sinin on the shoulder and spoke.

"Who says I’m not involved?"
