Although they were extremely resistant, the initial impression of fear that remained in their hearts, which was born from instinct and melted their spirits, seemed to be washed away from their memories. They only remembered the nervousness they felt when they first met.

Zeng Bai gave a rather forced smile and introduced himself and Tang Yuan to the new roommate. Jie Zhouyan didn't respond, but he certainly didn't mind, he just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible. So he packed up his personal belongings and said he and Tang Yuan would try out the public bathroom in the dormitory first, and then they left.

Only Yuan Yuxue and Jie Zhouyan were left in the dormitory.

The newly received textbook was placed on the table. Yuan Yuxue opened it and flipped through it, scanning the information inside - while Jie Zhouyan was watching him beside him.

Yuan Yuxue raised her head and met Jie Zhouyan's gaze.

Jie Zhouyan didn't seem to realize that this kind of undisguised and long stare was somewhat offensive and would make anyone feel uncomfortable.

But fortunately, Yuan Yuxue didn't know the social common sense of humans. For example, under normal circumstances, humans would not stare at someone so directly and attentively, except in interrogation situations. So he turned his head slightly, his fine eyelashes trembled slightly, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes met Jie Zhouyan's.

"Do you want to read a book, too?" Yuan Yuxue said politely, "I can share it with you."

He noticed that Jie Zhouyan seemed to have brought no personal belongings to the dormitory except for his presence, and of course he did not receive the distributed textbooks.

Jie Zhouyan's expression seemed to have changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "No, I'll sit next to you, together."

Read together.

Yuan Yuxue didn't think there was anything wrong. He moved closer to the desk, leaving enough space for another adult male. "Yeah."

Jie Zhouyan's back was straight, and he was standing a finger's distance away from Yuan Yuxue. His eyes were reluctantly but obediently fixed on the book.

Two people sitting together and reading a book together should be a very common scene among roommates...

Except that Yuan Yuxue turns a page every two seconds.

However, Jie Zhouyan had no doubts at all, as if this was a normal reading process. After they had "flipped" through all the textbooks, Zeng Bai and Tang Yuan also came back.

The school uniforms had been changed out, and they were wearing a set of tight pajamas, with bath towels draped over their shoulders, and hot white steam coming out of their heads.

Now Zeng Bai and Tang Yuan looked at Jie Zhouyan and had forgotten why they were so afraid of him.

They even frowned blankly, confused by the vigilance that suddenly rose from the bottom of their hearts. It was just a strange new roommate. Whether it was an NPC or a player, could he kill them all at once

Thinking of this, Zeng Bai even sat back in his seat with a normal expression, wiped his short hair casually with the towel on his shoulder, and teased the two people sitting together with a smile, "You two are familiar with each other, right? You have a good relationship."

Yuan Yuxue didn't react much, but Jie Zhouyan looked at Zeng Bai and gave him an "approving" look.

Zeng Baike did not realize that it was praise, he only felt that the gaze was extremely cold, with a sharp chill, which was completely different from Yuan Yuxue's "coldness". It carried a certain evil ferocity and was extremely aggressive.
