When Lin Nan returned to the dorm, the smile on her face was still hard to suppress.
However, she was still quite curious about what that blue rod really was, since it had made Zheng Qian deliberately dodge the question and change the subject.
Although she admitted that because her psychology hadn't completely transformed to female yet, she always made some silly and strange moves like being completely oblivious when certain people were lusting after her body.
But changing the subject was way too obvious, okay?
If the rental wasn't the important matter at hand, and Zheng Qian clearly didn't want to elaborate, with her personality she would definitely have gotten to the bottom of it.
"You're back?" Chen Yao turned to look at Lin Nan, pursing his lips. "Looks like you had a great time eating out with Advisor Zheng."
"Why do I hear a sour tone?" Lin Nan detected Chen Yao's acidic tone and felt extremely dissatisfied instead. She walked forward a few steps, leaned down slightly, and stared down at Chen Yao sitting in front of the computer, questioning: "You definitely sold out my information, didn't you!"
Chen Yao felt a bit guilty and awkwardly turned his head away, not daring to look Lin Nan in the eyes: "I thought it was just normal student information collection."
"If it was normal information collection, would the advisor know where I work part-time?" Lin Nan was furious, feeling like Chen Yao had betrayed their friendship for personal gain. "He even knows I like eating and money!"
Although she had always been greedy for money, it was fine for their own people to know, but having outsiders know always felt particularly embarrassing.
After all, society generally held a contemptuous attitude toward being materialistic and money-grabbing.
Chen Yao felt even more guilty. He glanced at the indignant Lin Nan and suddenly found her puffed-up appearance rather cute.
"I'm moving out tomorrow!" Lin Nan didn't plan to be too harsh. She straightened up and huffed: "Treat me to lunch tomorrow and this matter is settled."
Chen Yao looked worried. It was only the beginning of the month and he was already too poor to afford meals.
"Huh? Nan Nan is moving out?" Tu Junhui suddenly turned around from his game, his tone carrying some regret: "Why move out? Can't we three big men protect one weak woman in the dorm?"
"Why do you sound so sarcastic right off the bat?" Lin Nan didn't refute this. If it had been a few days ago, she would have confidently argued back, but now she could only explain with some guilt: "I feel like you all aren't very comfortable with me in the dorm, um..."
Her three roommates had never done anything inappropriate to her. In their year-plus of living together, although there were arguments, overall life was quite harmonious and she was even well taken care of. Yet because she had completely become female, she could only think of them in the worst possible way and ultimately chose to move out of the dorm.
Honestly, it felt quite unpleasant.
Perhaps Tu Junhui also noticed Lin Nan's poor mood and didn't make his usual jokes. Instead, he asked quite seriously: "Need help? We can check out the place too, and maybe come party at your place when we have time in the evenings."
"Forget it, I'm afraid the neighbors will complain about me." Lin Nan sat back down at her computer and glanced at her desk, discovering she really had quite a lot of stuff. She quickly changed her mind: "But I think you could be useful as a moving tool."
After living in the dorm for over a year, Lin Nan's personal belongings had accumulated to an astonishing amount.
First, just moving the laptop and monitor would be troublesome enough. She didn't have many clothes—one suitcase would be more than enough—but books, drawing boards, paints and other tools, small decorative items occasionally bought for the bookshelf, plus bed sheets and quilts, would be quite troublesome to organize completely.
Fortunately, she had eaten well in the evening and shaken off the fatigue from part-time work, otherwise seeing so many scattered small items, Lin Nan wouldn't have had the energy to clean up.
Xiong Da came down from his bed without saying much, silently walking over to help.
Lin Nan had always had a good impression of this quiet, cold-faced roommate who rarely spoke. It was just that he seemed too aloof, and their personalities and interests were really quite different, which made their relationship seem distant.
"Meow!"
While putting paint into a bag, Lin Nan heard a cat's meow and remembered she was still raising a cat.
"Should Cola stay in the dorm or... forget it, I'll take him to the rental. This cat has had brain problems lately. Without supervision, he might jump off buildings." Lin Nan crouched down, trying to pet the cat's head.
But for some reason, Cola seemed much more agitated, unceremoniously swiping with his paw, scaring Lin Nan into quickly pulling her hand back.
She was furious, this cat was probably in heat to be so irritable. She had taken such careful care of Cola initially, but now he was attacking without restraint, completely lacking his previous obedience as a kitten.
So she unceremoniously grabbed Cola by the scruff of his neck and lifted him directly up. No matter how much Cola struggled with claws and fangs, she held firm.
"Has this cat become stupid?" Xiong Da asked while helping Lin Nan organize her miscellaneous items. "I used to see him run really fast, but today he seems so much slower."
"He's definitely in heat!" Lin Nan glared viciously at Cola, gritting her teeth: "If you try to scratch me again! I'll take you to the hospital for neutering!"
Cola was shocked. The cat that had been struggling and kicking nonstop instantly became docile, lying motionless like a sea cucumber, though his eyes seemed even more melancholic.
Lin Nan paid no attention. If a cat could get depressed, that would be overestimating its intelligence.
She suspected Cola's previous building jump was because he was in heat and desperate to find a female cat.
So shameless!
"Isn't it too early for that?" Xiong Da, who had cats at home, knew much more than Lin Nan. Normally it takes over a year to go into heat, some earlier, but neutering has to wait until one year old.
"Anyway, treat it all as neutering. I heard temperament improves a lot after it." Lin Nan placed Cola on the chair, but seeing him restlessly trying to leave again, she glared viciously.
This cat actually understood her look and guiltily lay back down.
It seemed cats, like children, indeed needed education. Seeing his obedience, Lin Nan took out a cat can that had been treasured for a long time from the drawer: "Only obedient cats get canned food in the future, otherwise I won't let Lin Yuan feed you anymore."
Cola remained unmoved even seeing his usual favorite.
This cat's appetite hasn't been very good lately. Although he'd only had goat milk and cat food since childhood, in the past two days he'd developed an interest in human food, always meowing for people to feed him human meals.
Lin Nan glanced at the cat food in the corner that hadn't been touched at all and shook her head helplessly, feeling like her cat was going through a rebellious phase even if he wasn't in heat.
She opened the can and placed it in front of Cola, but this cat disdainfully looked at the canned food that cost as much as Lin Nan's lunch and reached out a paw to knock it over.
"Finish eating or get neutered, wasting food is shameful." Lin Nan smiled happily.
Cola ate very quickly.
This woman is a devil! A devil!
