Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 224 - 102: Oppa, Merry Christmas Eve_3
The dormitory supervisor aunt was like a saint, completely forgetting her nickname, the Old Witch.
In the female dormitory, Qin Shiqing hurriedly ran inside.
Xiao Yue and others, who were discussing tonight's Christmas party, were surprised.
"Shiqing, you're back! Why haven't you taken off your makeup and changed clothes yet?"
"Hurry up and get changed, you'll catch a cold wearing so little!"
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you something. Before the party started, we saw someone wearing a baseball cap who looked a lot like Su Zelin. If we didn't know that Su Zelin wasn't coming, we'd have thought it was him."
"..."
"Haha, I have to go out for a bit, let's chat when I get back!"
Qin Shiqing grabbed the bag on the bed and ran out again, leaving Shen Jia and the others looking at each other in confusion.
"What's up with Shiqing, running around like that?"
"Did you guys notice? She seemed to be in a good mood!"
"Yeah, yeah, she was all smiles when she came in!"
"..."
At this moment, Yan Qiuwen, who was on the upper bunk reading a psychology book, spoke up: "He came, she noticed, chased after him, and found him."
The others were completely confused by this.
What was Qiuwen talking about? They didn't understand at all.
Back at the foot of the dormitory building, the supervisor aunt was still chatting with Su Zelin.
Qin Shiqing stuffed the bag into Su Zelin's hands: "Here, take this!"
"What's this?"
Su Zelin frowned.
Qin Shiqing smiled and said, "Thanks for bringing the down jacket that our mom bought us last time, and for showing up tonight. This is a thank you gift!"
Our mom's down jacket...
That sounded a bit strange.
"Haha, I always knew you two siblings actually get along well. Even if you bicker, you still care about each other, just like me and my brother back in the day."
The dormitory supervisor aunt felt gratified.
No, auntie, we're not the same.
Qin Shiqing corrected this in her heart.
"Alright then, oppa, Merry Christmas Eve!"
Having delivered the gift, Qin Shiqing didn't linger and scampered back up the stairs. At the turn of the staircase, she turned back to give Su Zelin a bright smile.
"Big sis, I'm heading out now, goodbye!"
Su Zelin also said his goodbyes.
"Okay, young man, goodbye!"
The aunt smiled and bid him farewell.
The boys downstairs who were reluctantly saying goodbye to their girlfriends felt a weight lifted.
It seemed the Old Witch was in an exceptionally good mood today, or maybe her menopause symptoms had eased. No worries, they could cling to their girlfriends a bit longer.
The Old Witch turned back, saw the pairs of lovebirds, and her smile vanished instantly, as she said with a fierce look: "What are you all doing hugging and holding on to each other in front of everyone? Simply shameless! Stop disturbing others and get lost right now!"
Oh crap, the Old Witch flipped her lid.
What they saw just now was an illusion!
The startled pairs of lovebirds scattered like birds and beasts, and the area under the girl's dormitory was instantly deserted.
Seeing the now empty entrance, the dormitory supervisor aunt felt satisfied as she went back inside.
It's much more peaceful this way.
Oh right, I still need to deliver that medicated wine to that girl.
I forgot to ask which dorm she lives in just now.
...
By this time, Su Zelin had already left the female dormitory far behind. He opened the bag and found a scarf inside.
It was different from those on the market, having no brand label.
It was handmade.
Su Zelin quickly realized something.
He knew Qin Shiqing was good with her hands.
This scarf must have taken quite a while to knit, stitch by stitch.
"This woman, she really has too much time on her hands, she could have just bought one."
Though complaining, Su Zelin took out the scarf, thought for a moment, and hung it around his neck.
Hmm, it's quite warm.
...
Arriving at the school gate, it was almost eleven o'clock, and there were no buses anymore.
After waiting by the roadside for a bit, he grabbed a cab back to the dormitory.
Except for Zeng Kaiping, everyone else was back.
Although Cai Wensheng and Popcorn were practically a couple, the youngest in both dorms were still quite innocent and unlikely to have booked a room tonight.
They just had dinner and watched a movie, then took a bus back to school.
As for Hu Xu, he just went to his future wife's dormitory building and gave her an apple.
The way Lao Wu was beaming with joy suggested that the girl probably accepted the apple.
But that didn't mean she had accepted Hu Xu.
As far as Su Zelin knew, Lao Si's future wife was quite traditional and conservative and unlikely to start dating as a freshman.
This was mostly a matter of courtesy.
Of course, she probably had some good feelings toward Lao Wu.
Lao Wu has to wait a few more years to win his beauty, until near graduation, and needs to be patient in the meantime.
"Third Brother, you're back! Did the party your sister hosted live up to expectations?"
Cai Wensheng casually asked when he saw him coming in.
"It was pretty nice, kind of twists and turns."
Su Zelin casually replied.
"Twists and turns?"
Cai Wensheng was puzzled.
It was just an artistic party, after all, not a drama, how could it be twists and turns?
Feng Zhongliang glanced at the new scarf around Su Zelin's neck, deep in thought.
When he left, the Third Brother didn't have that scarf. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
It seemed the Second Brother was right that he hadn't gone to see his sister host the party.
It was likely it involved that mysterious girl then.
Why was the Third Brother sneaking around with her, like they were in an underground romance, it really was curious.
Su Zelin's odd thinking patterns always followed unconventional paths, making it hard for most to guess his thoughts, but Old Feng didn't dwell on it too much despite being mystified.
It was late enough for bedtime, so Su Zelin removed the scarf and his coat, put on his pajamas, and just as he was about to lie in bed, an idea popped into his mind.
He turned on his computer, logged into QQ, found Sunny Day's ID, pulled up the chatbox, and typed a line.
"Merry Christmas and best wishes for the New Year!"
Logged off, shut down, and snuggled into the warm quilt.
Hmm, absolutely won't do this again!
...
