Chapter 459: Helping Brothers
Lu Yiming and Shi Qingxue took their luggage and went to the new student registration office to report.
Originally, He Zeming wanted to send someone to help them with their luggage, but Lu Yiming felt that doing so would make their classmates mistakenly think that they were brought here by their parents, which would put them at a disadvantage in terms of seniority, so he refused.
Although studying on the second day is a very happy thing for many people, Shi Qingxue is not very happy. She just held Lu Yiming's hand, pouted her lips, and looked listless: "Then will we not be able to attend classes together in the future?"
Of course, Lu Yiming entered the Computer Science Department, but Shi Qingxue was assigned to the School of Arts.
In a place like the College of Arts, if you study hard you can go into research, continue your studies after graduation, and then go into politics or join a research institute, but your personal employment prospects will be very average.
It can be used to kill time. As long as you don't fail too badly, it won't be difficult to get a diploma.
Although the employment prospects were unclear, Shi Qingxue didn't care about it. After all, with her family background and status, she didn't have to think about employment at all.
What she cared about was that she couldn't attend classes with Lu Yiming and couldn't be with Lu Yiming all the time.
Lu Yiming had no way to deal with this.
"It's okay. The courses in college are pretty easy, so don't worry that we won't be able to meet because the workload is too heavy."
Normally , Shi Qingxue had great difficulty solving math problems. If she were asked to learn programming, she would probably never get a diploma and degree from Fu Ri University in her lifetime.
As for letting Lu Yiming transfer to the School of Arts, Long Qiquan was the first one to disagree.
"All right."
Although she was a little dissatisfied, Shi Qingxue was not an unreasonable person. Thinking that Lu Yiming would be there whenever she called, she calmed down.
"Let's go. I'll help you complete the enrollment procedures and move your things into the dormitory. The school has a rule that freshmen cannot rent a house outside, so you can only live in the school for one year."
The two people carried their things and walked towards the registration point.
At the school gate, there are many seniors welcoming the new students.
It is said that university is a small society. The senior students who have worked hard in the school for several years can be regarded as old hands in the world. They can tell whether a student is a freshman or not at a glance.
Soon, the eyes of many seniors were focused on Shi Qingxue.
"This is definitely a freshman. This rawness and freshness... he has a good temperament."
"She's tall, especially her waist, which is so slender that I can hold it in my hand. She's my type."
"Don't make any random plans. Didn't you see the boy next to her? She has a partner, right? She's probably her childhood sweetheart."
"What are you afraid of? Even if a beautiful flower has a master, you can still loosen the soil. As long as you use the hoe well, there is no corner that cannot be dug down. This kind of high school love is the most unreliable. After seeing the colorful world of college, it will be over in no time."
"This woman's family must be quite wealthy. Looking at the way she dresses, she has good taste in clothes."
"Let's go up and ask which department the girl is from."
Several people came up to Lu Yiming and the others, all their eyes fell on Shi Qingxue.
The leader put on what he thought was a bright and sunny smile, stretched out his right hand, and said, "Hello, beautiful lady. I see you look unfamiliar. Are you a freshman this year? I'm Xiao Longbo, vice president of the Student Union. Nice to meet you."
Lu Yiming immediately grabbed Xiao Longbo's hand and stood in front of him, while smiling brightly and saying, "Hello, senior."
Xiao Longbo was stunned for a moment, then impatiently shook off Lu Yiming's hand, even showing a bit of anger on his face: "Who are you?"
Lu Yiming pretended not to see it, and instead pestered Xiao Longbo, introducing himself with a smile: "My name is Lu Yiming, a freshman in the Computer Science Department. Senior, I have heard since I was a child that everyone in the Student Union is talented and speaks well. After seeing you, I realized that they were wrong, because I found that everyone in the Student Union is handsome!"
Xiao Longbo originally wanted to get angry, but as the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Since Lu Yiming had praised the Student Union so shamelessly, if he got angry again, it would seem that he, as the vice president of the Student Union, was particularly short-sighted.
Helplessly, he took a deep breath and said something expressionless: "Welcome to Fu Ri University."
But before Xiao Longbo could continue speaking, Lu Yiming stretched his neck to look behind Xiao Longbo, and continued to block in front of him: "Is that the registration point? We are going to register, could you please make way for us, senior?"
Xiao Longbo made way for Lu Yiming, then looked at his back. His eyes narrowed slightly and he said to himself, "There's something about this Lu Yiming."
As they walked, Shi Qingxue suddenly remembered something and laughed.
Lu Yiming asked: "What are you laughing at?"
Shi Qingxue gave Lu Yiming a gentle look and said with a smile, "You are so mean. I am the vice president of the student union after all, and you don't even give me face."
Lu Yiming said disdainfully: "What kind of cow is the student union president? He's just a deputy. He dared to set his sights on you. I didn't give him a kick that would kill him off his family line. That was considered polite of me. Why should I give him face?"
Although Lu Yiming sounded ferocious, between the lines he revealed his possessiveness towards Shi Qingxue, which made Shi Qingxue secretly happy.
"You're so rude."
Lu Yiming said confidently: "Entering university is actually no different from entering society. University is a small society. Since we are all in society, we should follow the rules of society."
Shi Qingxue nodded slightly, because she had discovered along the way that the atmosphere in university was indeed completely different from that in middle school.
For example, the recruitment of new members for various clubs of all sizes and the announcement of various activities on the huge playground clearly show that there is more to university than just studying.
The registration point on the playground was crowded with people, just like the payment counter in a hospital.
This is not to say that Fu Ri recruits a huge number of students every year, but because it is not easy to get into university these days, and young people rarely travel far away, so many of them are accompanied by their parents.
Many parents came along, and even more exaggeratedly, there were quite a few where three generations of a family came as well.
Therefore, as time went by, more and more people naturally came.
Fortunately, Lu Yiming and Shi Qingxue didn't have to squeeze with them.
Soon, the two of them registered the dormitory information and each got the key to the dormitory door.
Lu Yiming stretched out his hand to salute, and volunteered: "Let's go, I'll help you get it done first."
The two arrived at the girls' dormitory building.
The beginning of the school year is the only time boys are allowed to enter the girls’ dormitory.
Lu Yiming helped Shi Qingxue carry the suitcase and came to dormitory 501.
The dormitory door was open, and three girls were busy inside.
I have to say that Fu Ri University is worthy of being a famous university. The dormitories are all four-person rooms, spacious and bright, with complete facilities. Not only are there direct drinking water, but there are also water heaters and air conditioners.
Although the door was open, Lu Yiming began to knock on the door and said, "Hello."
Several people looked towards the door at the same time.
Seeing Shi Qingxue's beautiful face, several girls were slightly shocked.
The embroidered silk dress that Shi Qingxue was wearing looked very expensive, so the three girls behaved quite kindly.
With Lu Yiming by her side, Shi Qingxue introduced herself generously: "Hello, I'm Shi Qingxue, I'm from Guangdong Province."
"Hello, classmate Shi Qingxue, I'm Liu Huijun, from Hunan Province."
"I'm Sun Xiaoxia, from Fujian Province."
"I'm Wu Mengmeng, a local. Shi Qingxue, you're so beautiful."
Wu Mengmeng has an oval face and some baby fat, which makes her look cute. When she smiles, you can see her two little canine teeth.
Wu Mengmeng looked at Lu Yiming behind Shi Qingxue curiously and asked, "Shi Qingxue, is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome."
This was also something that the other two roommates were curious about, because many people were sent by their parents, but Shi Qingxue was sent by a boy. Moreover, the two of them did not look alike at all, which directly ruled out the possibility of siblings.
Shi Qingxue said generously: "Yes, he is my boyfriend Lu Yiming."
Lu Yiming smiled slightly and said calmly: "Hello, classmates. I am also a freshman this year."
Sun Xiaoxia joked: "Oh, what a pity, we finally got a handsome guy, but he's already taken."
Liu Huijun also smiled, with two beautiful dimples on her cheeks: "That's right, hi."
The few people seemed to be getting along well. Lu Yiming felt relieved and said, "Okay, Xiaoxue, you should get ready first. I'll go to the boys' dormitory. I'll call you later."
"good."
Lu Yiming came to the boys' dormitory and found dormitory 212.
There are also three people in the dormitory. It seems that when arranging the dormitories just now, they just chose the dormitory that was short of people and arranged people to that dormitory.
The bed closest to the dormitory door is bed number three, which is already occupied by a student.
Lu Yiming could tell at a glance that his family was well-off because he brought a Toshiba laptop, which cost tens of thousands of yuan and was unaffordable for an ordinary working-class family.
"Hello everyone, I'm Lu Yiming, from Guangdong Province."
Lu Yiming first introduced himself, and then he set his sights on the only bed in the dormitory that had no bedding. Obviously, that was his.
The man sitting in front of the computer looked back at Lu Yiming, then continued to sit in his chair and type on the keyboard. He was obviously not a talkative person.
Lu Yiming had no objection to this. He took the initiative to step forward, say hello, introduce himself, and extend his hand.
"Hello, what's your name?"
The man didn't expect Lu Yiming to come and shake hands. He looked up at Lu Yiming in surprise and said in a muffled voice, "Chen Chusheng."
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Please take care of me."
Chen Chusheng hummed, still not saying much.
However, Lu Yiming could see that Chen Chusheng was not the kind of person who was difficult to get along with, and his dislike for talking was not a big problem.
The layout of the dormitory was a bed on top and a desk below. The boy opposite Chen Chusheng was lying on the bed reading a comic. He took the initiative to stick his head out, looked down, smiled, and said, "Hello, I'm Ni Cong. Hey, you beast, you're a new classmate after all, don't be so arrogant."
He talked more than Chen Chusheng, which seemed quite normal. Lu Yiming didn't expect that he had already given his roommate a nickname, so he immediately joked, "It seems like you two are quite familiar with each other."
Ni Cong said: "He was my high school classmate. He was a top student and was directly admitted."
Lu Yiming was surprised to meet the legendary recommended student. "I see. You live in the same dormitory, so it's not bad that he recommended you."
Ni Cong sighed, waved his hand and said, "Not even close. I'm only slightly better at math and have won a few gold medals in math Olympiads. My college entrance exam score actually didn't meet the passing line, so I was specially recruited. Because I like tinkering with computers, I applied to the computer department."
Lu Yiming was slightly surprised again after hearing this, and then he smiled and said, "This is really a coincidence, I was also specially recruited."
Ni Cong stroked the few sparsely growing beards on his chin, a look of surprise emerged on his face: "This is interesting. Our dormitory 303 has only four beds in total. Now one is recommended and two are specially recruited. Why do I feel that the college deliberately arranged us in the same dormitory?"
Lu Yiming said casually: "This is also normal, after all, it is a strong alliance."
Ni Cong laughed and said, "This 'strong alliance' is a good use!"
Just at this moment, a tall and thin boy walked in. With his physique, he would be blown away if the wind was a little stronger.
"Hey, another friend is here? Does this mean that our dormitory 303 has successfully formed a group?"
Ni Cong said to Lu Yiming: "This guy is called Wang Dazhuang, from Nantong ."
Lu Yiming looked at Wang Dazhuang's thin figure and fell into deep thought: "Brother, do you weigh 100 kilograms?"
Wang Dazhuang laughed and said, "Almost. What do you call me brother?"
Lu Yiming stretched out his right hand and said, "Lu Yiming, nice to meet you."
Wang Dazhuang shook hands with Lu Yiming and said, "Since all the four great masters of our dormitory are here, let's go to a restaurant for a meal later. I'll treat you."
Ni Cong gave a thumbs up and said, "The boss is very generous!"
Someone invited him to dinner, so Lu Yiming naturally wouldn't be polite. He nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."
Only Chen Chusheng, who was not very talkative, remained taciturn, but he still responded with a "hmm".
Lu Yiming then asked, "Boss Wang, can we bring family members?"
Wang Dazhuang was stunned: "What do you mean by bringing family members?"
Ni Cong said: "Are your parents here?"
Lu Yiming explained: "That's not the case. My girlfriend is also at Fu Ri University. She enrolled with me today."
Ni Cong and Wang Dazhuang were shocked after hearing this, and then their faces were filled with envy.
Wang Dazhuang said, "Hey, you have a girlfriend? And you went to school together? Come on, ask your sister-in-law to come along."
Lu Yiming immediately took out his cell phone and called Shi Qingxue: "Hello, Xiaoxue, a few of my roommates are planning to go out for dinner later, come with us."
Shi Qingxue said distressedly: "Ah, why didn't you tell me earlier? I just agreed to go out for dinner with them."
Lu Yiming thought that Shi Qingxue was probably in the same situation as himself, so he said, "That's even better. Make good friends with your roommates. Go back to school right after dinner and don't stay outside. If anything happens, call me and I'll pick you up."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming said regretfully: "They also have an appointment in the dormitory tonight."
Wang Dazhuang came forward, put his arm around Lu Yiming's neck, and said with a malicious smile, "Brother, let me discuss something with you."
"What's up?"
Wang Dazhuang said, "I didn't expect you to be so brave. You fell in love in high school and got married together. That's awesome. You see, we are all still single. Can you talk to your sister-in-law and have a dormitory party or something? Now that you have settled your lifelong affairs, you should help your brothers."
When Lu Yiming heard this, he was immediately delighted and said, "It's no problem for me to lend a hand."
Wang Dazhuang was immediately happy and said, "Good brother! From today on, you are my half-brother! Hurry up and make the bed, and then let's go out for dinner together. Just because you are so straightforward, I have to blow a few bottles of wine with you."
Lu Yiming made the bed, and Wang Dazhuang couldn't wait to say to Chen Chusheng who was still playing on the computer: "Hey, Lao Chen, stop playing and eat first."
Chen Chusheng reluctantly turned off the computer and stuffed the laptop into the bottom layer of the suitcase.
Several people left the school and began looking for a place to eat.
Wang Dazhuang looked at the female students coming and going around him and said with emotion: "There are so many beautiful girls in Fu Ri University. The girls here are all radiant and fashionable. They are indeed much better than the school I attended before."
He was born in a small county town under Nantong. In order to pass the imperial examination, he buried himself in studying all day long and had hardly left the county town before graduating from high school. Now he is in a big city, with so many people and beauties that he is dazzled and overwhelmed.
Lu Yiming lowered his voice and revealed to the others mysteriously: "This is normal. Social resources are concentrated in big cities first. The same is true for beauties. In fact, there are not many beauties here. The most beautiful girls are in medical schools and normal schools."
When Ni Cong heard what Lu Yiming said, he smiled so much that his eyes narrowed: "Brother, you know so much about it? It seems that you are also a person who cherishes flowers."
Lu Yiming couldn't help but complain: "Why do you make me feel like a flower thief when you say this? It's very ambiguous."
Wang Dazhuang laughed and then talked about another topic: "By the way, how many points did you get in the college entrance examination?"
He worked hard to become the city's top scorer in the college entrance examination. Now he mentioned this just to show off in front of his roommates.
Although its value is not as high as that of the provincial top scholar, it is still a top scholar.
Ni Cong laughed when he heard this, and deliberately said to him, "I don't know. It seems that you are the only one in our dormitory who got in through the exam."
He pointed at Chen Chusheng and said, "The top student in our school has never missed a big award since he was a child, and has never won second place in any competition."
Then, he pointed at himself and said, "I was specially recruited because I won the gold medal in Mathematical Olympiad."
Finally, he pointed at Lu Yiming and said, "He was also specially recruited. I just heard him say that he won the individual and team championships in the ACM International Collegiate Programming Competition."
Wang Dazhuang was completely dumbfounded. There were four people in the dormitory, and he was the only one who got in through exams?
I am the top scorer!
Is the top scholar so worthless now?
