Chapter 165 Building the Floor
Chapter 165 Building the Floor
Finally, through Xiao Mufan's efforts, Su Qingning finally agreed to go to the Imperial College with them.
When Ning Chuyue learned that she could travel with Su Qingning, she was excited and thrilled, but she kept a calm face and pretended that she didn't care.
Moreover, she waved her hand and drove back the more than 20 warriors sent by the family to protect her and Xiao Mufan.
A few hours later, the five of them finally arrived outside Tianyun City. Outside the city gate, besides Su Qingning and the other three, there were many other people queuing up. At a glance, there were also quite a few young men and women of similar age, who were obviously there for the Imperial Academy's enrollment.
It was almost dusk when Su Qingning and the other four followed the team into Tianyun City.
"It's getting late. Let's find a place to rest for the night and then go to the Imperial College to register tomorrow!" Xiao Mufan suggested.
"Yes, sure." Su Qingning responded, and no one else had any objection.
So, the five of them went to find an inn to stay the night in. However, because it was the Imperial College's new student recruitment period, Tianyun City was very busy and almost every inn was full.
Su Qingning and her four companions searched several inns and finally found one with two rooms left. They booked it without hesitation.
Because there were only two rooms, they didn't have to worry about allocation. They could just put two boys in one room and three girls in one room.
However, compared to the harmonious atmosphere between Su Muzhe and Xiao Mufan, the atmosphere between the three girls was obviously much more tense.
It is said that three women make a play. Although Su Qingning is cold and quiet, Su Muxin and Ning Chuyue alone can make the stage sing.
Because of the incident at the Black Cloud Mountains, and Ning Chuyue's brazen claim that she wanted Su Qingning to be her personal maid, Su Muxin now feels unhappy with Ning Chuyue.
As soon as she entered the room, Su Muxin walked directly to the bed and sat down. She looked at Su Qingning with a shy smile and whispered, "Third sister, let's sleep in the same bed tonight!"
Su Qingning had no objection and was about to nod in agreement, but Ning Chuyue beside her became unhappy. She asked unhappily, "Hey, you two sleep on the bed, so where should I sleep?"
"You?" Su Muxin glanced at Ning Chuyue calmly and said as a matter of course, "Of course I sleep on the floor!"
"What?!" Ning Chuyue's eyes widened in disbelief. "You actually let me sleep on the floor?! Do you know who I am?"
Su Muxin rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I don't care who you are. Even if you are a princess of the empire, you can only sleep on the floor tonight."
Ning Chuyue was naturally not an imperial princess, because the royal family of the Longteng Empire was surnamed Mo. Moreover, as the daughter of the Su family, one of the five major families, Su Muxin naturally knew several princesses of the royal family. She said that just to deliberately mock Ning Chuyue. After all, no matter how high the other party's status was, it could not be compared with the five major families.
"You!" Ning Chuyue was choked. Her face flushed with anger and she shouted, "I am the eldest daughter of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce!"
Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in the Mowu Continent, with industries spread across various cities. As the eldest daughter of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Ning Chuyue can be said to have been born with a silver spoon in her mouth. To describe her in the words of the 22nd century, she is a local tycoon and a rich second-generation.
"Oh~" Su Muxin raised her hand and scratched her ear with her little finger, saying indifferently, "Is the eldest daughter of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce so great? Then we are also the eldest daughter of the Su family, one of the five major families!"
In terms of power and status, the five major families are stronger than the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. Since Ning Chuyue wants to discuss status with them, Su Muxin should have a good discussion with her!
"You...you are from the five major families?!"
Ning Chuyue's expression was awkward for a moment. It was not until then that she remembered that one of the five major families did seem to have the surname Su.
Damn! How could she have forgotten such important information?! What had she done?! She actually let the daughters of the five major families give her personal maids. She must have been out of her mind at the time.
Ning Chuyue thought in frustration, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Seeing that Ning Chuyue was speechless, Su Muxin ignored her.
"Third sister, you must be tired after traveling for so many days! Come over and rest!" Su Muxin excitedly and shyly called Su Qingning to the bed to rest.
"Yeah." Su Qingning nodded lightly and walked over.
"Third sister, do you sleep outside or inside?" Su Muxin asked.
Su Qingning didn't care which side she slept on, so she replied, "It's all right."
"Then I'll sleep inside, and you sleep outside, Third Sister!"
Su Muxin took off her shoes and swiftly moved to the bed. She then picked up a quilt and threw it to Ning Chuyue. She imitated her and said in a proud tone, "Here, I'll make this quilt for you to sleep on the floor. Don't say that I'm bullying you!"
Ning Chuyue: "..." I endured it.
Watching Su Muxin bullying Ning Chuyue, Su Qingning didn't say much. After all, people are biased, and she would naturally favor her sister. Besides, Ning Chuyue's spoiled personality really needed to be tamed.
Looking at Su Qingning and Su Muxin lying comfortably on the bed, Ning Chuyue's eyes turned red with grievance, but driven by her self-esteem, she forced herself not to cry.
In the end, Ning Chuyue spread the quilt in her hand on the ground and lay down with a wronged look on her face.
At night, when Su Qingning opened her eyes, she saw Ning Chuyue curled up on the ground pitifully. Because the temperature dropped at night, she was shivering with cold.
Su Qingning sighed helplessly in her heart, stood up, carried Ning Chuyue to the bed, then picked up the quilt on the ground and covered her and Su Muxin with it.
Perhaps because it was too cold, when Ning Chuyue felt the heat source, she subconsciously leaned over, and stretched out her arms and legs to hug the other person like an octopus, completely unaware that the person she was hugging was Su Muxin.
Seeing this scene, Su Qingning raised her eyebrows, as if she had already seen the chaotic scene the next morning.
However, despite having anticipated the chaotic scene tomorrow morning, Su Qingning did not step forward to separate the two. There was even a hint of a malicious smile in her eyes, as well as anticipation for a good show.
Without continuing to watch the two people sleeping on the bed, Su Qingning walked to a chair by the window, sat cross-legged, then closed her eyes and began to practice.
The next morning, two screams, one after the other, echoed throughout the inn.
"what!"
"what!"
Su Muxin and Ning Chuyue stared at each other with fear in their eyes. It was obvious that they woke up early in the morning and saw each other's faces up close, and were frightened.
