Lin Nan was going to leave the dormitory to live off-campus.
Although she could still meet everyone during regular classes and free time in the afternoons, they had lived together for a year after all, and Lin Nan actually felt somewhat reluctant to leave.
When she was in the dormitory, she was always thinking about leaving, but when it came time to actually live alone, she felt particularly anxious.
Lin Nan had already packed most of her belongings. She had sorted out four woven bags worth of items from beside the wardrobe, big bags and small packages.
Some things could honestly be thrown away directly, but she was reluctant to part with them, like the paint and drawing boards left over from last semester's sketching and color classes. She actually wouldn't need them this semester, and it would be fine not to take them, but she just felt sorry for the money spent buying them originally.
On Sunday morning, Tu Junhui had promised to help, so he woke up early. Poking his head up from bed, he discovered that Lin Nan was already crouched on the ground playing with the cat at some point.
In just a few days, he noticed that Lin Nan had unconsciously gained a charm that only women possessed. Her previous affected masculine posture had gradually disappeared. Although her face and figure hadn't changed much recently, at first glance, it was like seeing an unfamiliar strange girl.
The previous Lin Nan had only given him this sense of strangeness during the beginning of the school year. Later, no matter how much her appearance changed, she was still that same Lin Nan.
That Cola really had something wrong with its head. It used to be very obedient, but now under Lin Nan's teasing it acted indifferent, even irritably planning to scratch people. But one sentence from Lin Nan, "Do you want to be neutered?" scared Cola into trembling.
These past two days Lin Nan seemed to always wake up particularly early. He couldn't see Lin Nan going to shower either, but when he saw her in the morning, he would discover she had somehow showered and changed clothes at some point.
"Nan Nan, are you planning to leave this early?"
"At least I should take the things over first. I still have part-time work this afternoon." Lin Nan picked up the cat and placed it on her lap, sitting in front of the computer. With one hand holding down the restless cat, she looked up at Tu Junhui's fat face. "Why did you get up so early?"
"Didn't we agree I'd help you carry things?"
Lin Nan nodded in realization. Last night she and Xiong Da had been busy organizing things for a long time. After finishing, she was so tired she fell asleep immediately, having long forgotten what Tu Junhui had said.
Moreover, this guy's words were unreliable. Lin Nan always treated what he said as jokes first.
The conversation might have woken Chen Yao. He also sat up in bed, yawning and interjecting: "Then I'll also go see where your new home is, so I won't have to ask you to come get me when I want to find you later."
"That works. With one more person, I’ll have to carry less."
The early morning dormitory gradually began to come alive. Lin Nan watched them get out of bed one after another, crowding around the washbasin to brush their teeth, or cursing while waiting for Tu Junhui to use the toilet, then going in and covering their noses to curse some more. The quiet from half an hour ago was nowhere to be seen. The familiar scene somehow made Lin Nan feel a bit heartbroken.
She probably would never see this again. She sighed lifelessly.
While they were washing and tidying up, Lin Nan simply took out her phone to buy some women's products online.
She had wanted to buy a bra for a long time. Although she couldn't really accept wearing such things on herself, the occasional friction between her chest and clothing always made her blush and her heart race. After thinking it over, this seemed to be the only way to solve the problem.
And also panties... Although at night she tried as much as possible not to turn over or move around, and tried to make the sanitary pad fit her skin closely, she still leaked in the morning. The night before last she only needed to wash boxer briefs, but this morning when she woke up, she found the bedsheet was stained red again.
After becoming female, no matter how much she rejected these things, she had to accept them. Otherwise, the troubles in daily life would be much more distressing than the shame of acceptance. But if she had to go to a mall to buy them herself, she couldn't bring herself to do it, so she could only buy them online.
So, what size bra should I buy?
Lin Nan's phone screen stayed on various types of bras, looking completely bewildered.
Since she had just started developing not long ago, should she just buy a bra similar to a camisole?
"What are you buying?"
Lin Nan was startled and quickly stuffed her phone in her pocket. Looking up, she found it was Chen Yao, who already knew her identity.
She relaxed somewhat, but her face still carried a blush. She turned her head away, stammering an explanation: "I should buy them eventually..."
"Huh?"
Chen Yao was standing relatively far away, so he actually hadn't seen what Lin Nan was buying.
"I'll pack up Cola's litter box and bowl. It's coming with me."
Lin Nan immediately stood up to change the subject. Cola meowed in protest.
I don't want to go with you, okay!
After all, they were all rough guys. In less than half an hour, the three roommates had all tidied up their basic appearance. Each person carried one woven bag, the fat guy was discriminated against and carried two, while Lin Nan shouldered the computer bag and hugged the monitor.
As for the cat, she directly shut it in the litter box.
"Why do I have to carry two?"
When they left the dormitory building with their big and small bags, Tu Junhui was still cursing: "I'm going to report you for discrimination!"
Since it wasn't graduation season, Lin Nan's group walking around the school still attracted attention, but there were pitifully few pedestrians in the morning, so Lin Nan could barely accept the few glances.
From the dormitory building to the front door of Lin Nan's rental, it took a full half hour. Calculating slightly, Lin Nan realized that in the future she might have to get up at 7:30 for classes, whereas before in the dormitory, getting up at 8:00 and still arriving on time.
"This place is quite big." Opening the rental's front door, Tu Junhui was the first to walk in. He put the things in his hands down by the door and sat sprawling on the sofa. "But it definitely can't compare to our dormitory."
Although he said it was big, when four people entered the living room, they basically had no room to move around.
"How much does this one-bedroom apartment cost? When can I move out too? The dormitory is too noisy." Xiong Da thought this was a house Lin Nan had rented herself.
Chen Yao's face showed conflict. He had originally thought the advisor had just found Lin Nan an ordinary run-down single room, but unexpectedly this rental not only looked like a one-bedroom apartment, but was also quite new.
At least the walls looked clean and smooth, and the exterior walls of this building were also tiled. It was probably built just a year or two ago.
"Nine hundred yuan a month. I think I'm the second tenant here." Lin Nan excitedly introduced her new home. "The previous tenant was a pretty girl, a friend of the advisor. Yesterday I saw things that girl forgot to take with her!"
"What things?" Tu Junhui immediately became interested.
"I was just about to ask about that..." Lin Nan was quite curious about that thing. She gestured with both hands to describe it: "It's a blue stick, quite beautifully made. It looks a bit like the curling irons I've seen on TikTok. The front half seems to have some beads and a grainy texture."
"Stop right there." Tu Junhui interrupted Lin Nan's words. "You're not talking about that thing, are you?"
"Which thing?"
Tu Junhui shut his mouth, Chen Yao had a sudden realization, while Xiong Da and Lin Nan looked at the two of them with equally innocent confusion.
"Yesterday we agreed I'd treat you to lunch." Chen Yao chose the same approach as Zheng Qian. "Let's go out to eat. How about everyone except Lin Nan goes Dutch?"
"Hey, Advisor Zheng already used that trick."
"???"
Wait, what did you guys do here yesterday?
