Finally reaching the bottom of the girls' dormitory building, Xie Tianyu was about to collapse, his vision turning black, feeling on the verge of a stroke.

But this didn't mean his suffering was over; there was still a big challenge ahead.

The suitcases could still be dragged on flat ground just now, but now they had to go upstairs!

To make matters worse, Qin Shiqing's dormitory was on the fifth floor!

In his current state, carrying two large suitcases and a big bag to the fifth floor might require calling in the trumpeters.

So Xie Tianyu set down the suitcases and bags at the stairs and looked at Su Zelin, hoping he would sensibly help carry some of it.

But the loafer acted as if he didn't see his gaze, with his hands in his pockets, cheerfully singing.

Qin Shiqing, however, felt a bit embarrassed, wanting to take back her suitcase and backpack, but her hand was held down by Su Zelin.

The "brother" was angry: "Sis, how can you carry your own luggage? You're the little princess of the family, such rough work should be done by a big guy like me, come on, let's go check out the dormitory first!"

Without allowing any objections, he dragged Qin Shiqing up the stairs.

Xie Tianyu was dumbfounded by his brazen move.

Damn it, you say the rough work should be done by us big guys, I don't object, but at least carry it yourself!

Just then a male volunteer with an armband happened to pass by, and Xie Tianyu quickly grabbed his arm: "Classmate, I'm the vice president of the Student Union in the Department of Public Management, Xie Tianyu, responsible for the new student reception volunteers, I'm now recruiting you to help me carry these new students' luggage to the fifth floor!"

The boy glanced at him: "I'm not from the Department of Public Management!"

"So what if you're not from the Department of Public Management, we're all volunteers, is it so hard to help others?"

Xie Tianyu was indignant.

"It's not hard, but I'd rather help the little juniors from my department, bye!"

The boy ignored him; now that he was a sophomore, he was not so easily fooled.

If it were a junior girl, maybe, but you're a grown man asking me to carry luggage; I'm not stupid!

"Wait a moment!"

Xie Tianyu called after him and, gritting his teeth, dug out twenty bucks from his pocket: "Just to the fifth floor, this is your payment!"

"Deal!"

The boy was straightforward; he wouldn't work for free, but money changed the situation.

This boy was quite burly, broad-shouldered, heaving with a northeast accent, and worked with gusto, forming a stark contrast with the smaller-framed Xie Tianyu.

He hefted the two suitcases and the backpack up to the fifth floor in one go, without even pausing for breath.

"Alright, you can go now!"

Xie Tianyu waved him off.

The guy was no longer useful, it was time for Xie Tianyu to shine, and he couldn't have him getting in the way.

With money in hand, the boy didn't linger, quickly running down the stairs.

Xie Tianyu then continued dragging the large and small bags, finding the girls' dorm where Qin Shiqing was.

By this time, the "Qin siblings" were already in the dormitory.

The living conditions at Zhejiang University were quite decent, a six-person dormitory, relatively new, with clean walls that perhaps previous girls had taken good care of to leave for the next occupants.

Besides Qin Shiqing, four people had already arrived, all pretty good-looking.

Su Zelin was already chatting up a pretty girl who was going to sleep on the bunk above Qing Mei; he extended his hand with a cheeky smile, "Hi, girl sleeping above my sister, fate has brought us together, hello, I'm Qin Zelin, Qin Shiqing's brother, I'm 17, unmarried, from Jianglan, Zhejiang Province, please take care of my sister from now on!"

Xie Tianyu was speechless upon hearing this; he thought this guy was honest, but didn't expect him to be quite cheeky.

Su Zelin had an appealing look, a convincing performance, a smile of "innocence and charm," plus a facade of being a loving brother which perfectly disguised him, and his lethal charm was naturally greater.

Moreover, this girl was someone Su Zelin knew from a past life, open-minded enough that he knew she wouldn't mind a little flirting.

Perhaps because he was her roommate's brother or because she saw Su Zelin was handsome, the girl didn't find him frivolous, covering her mouth with a giggle, extending her hand for a brief shake, and introducing herself simply, "Hi, I'm Xiao Yue, from Linhai!"

Linhai is also a city in Zhejiang Province, so she didn't need to be more specific; everyone knew.

Su Zelin exclaimed in surprise, "So we're fellow provincials, what a coincidence!"

Xie Tianyu thought to himself, coincidence my ass, of course there are more people from within the province at Zhejiang University, it's not surprising to run into them, but you still manage to say it's fate.

Learning experience!

This brother has some skills!

Unfortunately, Xie Tianyu isn't local, so this move was of no use to him.

"Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue... this name sounds familiar, I feel like I've heard it somewhere!"

Su Zelin mumbled several times, falling into contemplation.

A trace of disdain flashed across Xie Tianyu's face.

Using the old "your name sounds familiar" pick-up line, so shallow!

Though he often used it himself, seeing other guys use such a strategy, especially ones better-looking than himself, he looked down on them a bit.

Not to mention just an unexceptional finance student, if it weren't for Qin Shiqing, he'd be too lazy to deal with it.

"Oh, do you know a girl with this name too?"

Although it was the most common routine, Xiao Yue still subconsciously asked.

"Not another girl!"

Su Zelin mused briefly: "Ah, I remember now!"

He slapped his thigh: "'The breeze gently brushes the grass, opening the door to see the moonlight filling the lake,' aren't those lines from Su Shi's 'Awoken on a Boat at Night'? No wonder it sounds familiar, Su Shi's verses were practically tailor-made for you!"
