Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

As soon as the words fell, all eyes in the dormitory turned to focus on Ye Lengan.

Just moments ago, they had been discussing the matter of Murong Yumeng, and Ye Lengan had remained silent. But now, hearing that Murong Yumeng was looking for her, they all wondered when they had met.

They were all certain that the Senior Sister Murong the girl referred to must be Murong Yumeng. In Capital University, only Murong Yumeng could command such respect as Senior Sister Murong from so many.

Facing the collective gaze, Ye Lengan seemed oblivious, her focus still on the girl. She frowned slightly. Are you referring to Murong Yumeng?

How could she forget any interaction with Murong Yumeng? Back in the small town, their encounters were anything but pleasant. So, Murong Yumeng seeking her out now raised suspicion.

Yes, its her! The girl nodded vigorously. You better hurry down! Senior Sister Murong is waiting!

She couldnt afford to let Ye Lengan continue dragging this out, otherwise, Senior Sister Murong might think she was unreliable! She finally had a chance to impress Senior Sister Murong, she couldnt mess it up.

Senior Sister Murong was a member of the Murong family. If she could leave a good impression on Senior Sister Murong, it would be greatly beneficial for her future.

The urgency in the girls voice prompted Ye Lengan to respond. I understand. Ill go down shortly.

Though she wasnt sure of Murong Yumengs intentions, it seemed necessary to make the trip. Lingering here would attract undue attention.

What? You still want to delay? The girls incredulity was palpable. Didnt I say it? Senior Sister Murong is downstairs. Why keep her waiting? Are you going to make her wait?

Hey, whats with the att.i.tude? Zhu Bixuan interjected before Ye Lengan could respond. Its Senior Sister Murong whos come to find her! Its not like Lengans begging for her. Cant she wait a bit longer?

Do you even know who Senior Sister Murong is? The girl retorted. Shes not only from the Murong family but also the president of our schools student council! What right do you have to make her wait?

The girls words ignited Zhu Bixuans anger, but before she could retort, Ye Lengan intervened.

In that case, tell her not to wait. Ye Lengans tone was icy. You can inform her that if its not convenient, she should leave. And if youre trying to impress Murong Yumeng, thats your business. But dont a.s.sume everyone is like you. Tell Murong Yumeng Ill be down shortly. If she can wait, she can. If not, she can leave.

You The girls face flushed with frustration. Youre being unreasonable. Youre just a freshman, whats there to be arrogant about?

With that, she stormed off.

Lengan, when did you meet Murong Yumeng? With the girl gone, Zhu Bixuans curiosity got the better of her. Why didnt we hear about this before?

Zhou Cuian and Ling Weiwei, silent until now, were listening intently, clearly curious too.

Not really. Ye Lengan shook her head. Just a chance encounter while traveling in a small town. And it wasnt pleasant.

With nothing to hide, she laid it all out.

Just like that? Zhu Bixuan was incredulous. Then why did she come to you?

Who knows whats on her mind? Ye Lengan shrugged indifferently. Then, she began packing her things, appearing unrushed.

Uh Zhou Cuian hesitated. Lengan, should you go down to meet Senior Sister Murong first? After all, shes our senior. Isnt it impolite to keep her waiting?

She found Ye Lengan overly nonchalant. This was Murong Yumeng, a member of the Murong family. If Murong Yumeng sought her out, shed drop everything to meet her immediately.

Though Ye Lengan had her reasons, Zhou Cuian doubted every word. If there was no connection with Murong Yumeng, why would she come to the dormitory?

Whats wrong with that? Ye Lengan replied calmly. I didnt ask her to come find me, nor did she inform me beforehand. Should I drop everything just to accommodate her?

Exactly. Zhu Bixuan slammed the table in agreement. Who does she think she is? A princess? Just one command, and everyone has to obey.

But, Senior Sister Murong Zhou Cuian hesitated.

She has nothing to do with me, Ye Lengan stated flatly. Im not expecting any favors from her. So why should I bend over backward for her?

Zhou Cuians expression soured; she felt mocked by Ye Lengans words.

Even Ling Weiwei, though silent, wore a mocking expression when looking at Zhou Cuian.

And Zhu Bixuan, usually carefree, sensed something amiss.

For a moment, the dormitorys atmosphere turned peculiar.

Ignoring Zhou Cuian, Ye Lengan finished packing and, after about fifteen minutes, descended the stairs slowly.

She wasnt sure if Murong Yumeng was still there, but having agreed, she proceeded nonetheless.
