Gong Ruini doesn’t care how tangled Gong Ruwen and the others are, she just thinks it’s her first time going back since starting university. So she must prepare some things.

"Why don’t you make something delicious?" Would the household lack anything that could be bought with money at the market? As long as someone says they like to eat something, there will instantly be filial children rushing out.

Make something delicious? Gong Ruini just doesn’t want to go into the kitchen to cook. It’s her day off, and she wants to rest well; otherwise, she would really be too tired.

Zhao Xuran noticed Gong Ruini looked like she was about to yawn, "What’s the matter?"

"Didn’t you sleep well last night?"

The semester just started, so the workload shouldn’t be that heavy. Even if she were to study hard to maintain her ranking, that would be during final exams.

Gong Ruini nodded, "The person on the upper bunk was too noisy, constantly turning over." Actually, it didn’t seem to affect Gong Ruini too much. After Luo Zijun finally fell asleep, she’d enter her own space to rest.

She slept well, and no one would disturb her again to prevent her from falling asleep.

The person on the upper bunk being too noisy? What does that mean? It was clearly Luo Zijun making a fuss, which pained Zhao Xuran.

Zhao Xuran just wanted to comfort Gong Ruini, but Gong Ruwen jumped in first, "Why don’t we just not stay in the dorm anymore?"

The dorm is so small, not even as big as a girl’s study, which already wrongs her. Now she can’t even sleep well.

"Not staying in the dorm would make me too conspicuous." She’s finally getting along well with her roommates; moving back home suddenly would just be letting Luo Zijun run wild.

That girl is pretty willful, but she hasn’t turned around yet. Once she realizes that university isn’t the same path she used to walk, would she suddenly change her attitude and become all friendly?

Gong Ruini doesn’t want to be the one ultimately isolated by everyone. "Actually, because she makes a fuss, the other two aren’t happy either."

With two bunk beds pushed together, can the others sleep soundly with Luo Zijun making a fuss?

They haven’t lost their temper yet, but if it happens often, wouldn’t they eventually?

"Then why not make a request?" Zhao Xuran didn’t understand since it affects three people.

"Already did, but she said she’s not used to sleeping on the top bunk." Gong Ruini was quite helpless.

"She’s just waiting for one of you to give in and switch places with her." It’s been a week into the semester, yet this person continues fussing over bunk placement; it’s incredible determination.

Gong Ruini guessed she had this idea, not for the sake of the bed position anymore, but to make people in the dorm acknowledge her. Yet, her behavior only made everyone more annoyed with her.

"But she can’t make a fuss for long."

Gong Ruini was confident. Even if Luo Zijun wanted to make a fuss, soon she’d have to behave obediently.

Huh, what does that mean? The two men didn’t understand, wondering if Ni Zi had read something related to mysticism and gained some insight; otherwise, how could she be so certain?

"Because the girl has huge dark circles under her eyes." Of course, Gong Ruini wouldn’t remind her; she’d just watch to see if anyone else kindly pointed it out, but probably no one would.

"So what if she has dark circles under her eyes." Gong Ruwen touched under his own eyes, seemingly having them too from staying up late often, thinking it showed effort.

This comment clearly came from a man, a straightforward one at that, "She’d worry that her future boyfriend might dislike them as unattractive."

Unfortunately, not many women care about such things now; otherwise, Luo Zijun would have reacted sooner.

Hold on, could it be that girl hasn’t noticed this issue at all? The thought shocked Gong Ruini herself.

Looks like she’ll have to stir the pot a little, letting her know that dark circles are bad for appearance. But she’s unsure who should bring it up.

Finding a boyfriend who would be put off, Gong Ruwen laughed unreservedly, "Anyone dating her would be unlucky."

"Finding a wife needs her to be sensible and virtuous." Gong Ruwen held firm on this point.

Sensible and virtuous? Hearing this standard made Gong Ruini feel their expectations were rather high, "Bro, do you have a problem with Chu Ling?"

Gong Ruini didn’t think Chu Ling would be a sensible, virtuous wife who takes care of others. Managing not needing care from Gong Ruwen itself would already be great, so she didn’t expect too much.

"Bro, don’t you think what you said might upset our future sister-in-law greatly?"

"You have to realize that no matter how sensible she is, she won’t like hearing her man having complaints about her." With Zhao Guangran not around, only her older brother could treat her to something nice.

Sigh, after a week of cafeteria food, Gong Ruini could only say her palate desperately needed a treat.

Heavens, stepping into Zhao Guangran’s shoes, of course, Gong Ruwen understood it wasn’t about his words being inappropriate, but his sister having her eye on something, "Go on, tell me what you want."

Hehe, that’s her older brother, always proactive, much better than that kid Zhao Guangran, "I want to go out and eat roast duck."

What, really? To actively suggest eating roast duck is unusual. Although they often eat roast duck outside, it’s never the first choice for her meals, considering how oily she feels it usually is and doesn’t meet her criteria.

"Is the cafeteria food that bad?" Zhao Xuran knew the cafeteria food was bad, but there were many small restaurants near the school with decent food. They had taken Ni Zi to eat there before.

"Not just bad." In high school, Gong Ruini ate cafeteria food but would often eat something nice at home in the evening, so she didn’t mind as much back then.

Now she’s eating three meals a day at the cafeteria, feeling like she’s about to drop below her dietary standards, her stomach already protesting.

As for why she didn’t eat outside, the reason was really simple, "They think it’s too expensive out there."

Gong Ruini couldn’t bring herself to say it wasn’t expensive, "So I just eat with them, but shouldn’t we go for roast duck instead?"

Actually, Gong Ruini was also thinking of stuffing herself with some oily food before going home; otherwise, losing composure at home would make her parents think she came back from Africa.

Watching Gong Ruini gobble up her food at the dinner table, Gong Ruwen and Zhao Xuran were both startled.

They exchanged glances; honestly, even back in the Northeast, they’d never seen Gong Ruini eat so hastily, always with good table manners. What happened today?

If they had to attribute it in one word, it would be hunger; in two words, starved crazy.

Zhao Xuran felt distressed, seeing his silly sister in such a state.

Gong Ruini noticed their glances but couldn’t be bothered.

It wasn’t until she finished half a roast duck that she exhaled in relief, feeling human again.

Making someone who’s used to eating well suddenly eat all kinds of healthy, nutritious food—how could she persevere? Gong Ruini admired her own endurance; it was truly not easy!
