In half an hour, we would arrive at the Final Station. I quickly packed my luggage and called my grandfather. I intended to tell him about Wang Yi and Li Daqiu, but the words caught in my throat, and I swallowed them back down. Instead, I found a casual excuse, saying that I had just had a small argument with Wang Yi and that he shouldn't worry.
After hanging up, I lay on my bed for a moment, then checked my luggage again. Once I confirmed that nothing was missing, I finally felt at ease.
Half an hour later, the train arrived at the station. I hurriedly got off and chose to walk through crowded areas, fearful of being spotted by Wang Yi and Li Daqiu. By the time I reached the exit, ten minutes had already passed.
I found a police officer and informed him that a human trafficker was about to exit the station. However, without any evidence, he had no choice but to send me back to school.
By the time I arrived at school, it was already five in the afternoon. Soon after, my roommates began to arrive one after another. At six o'clock, Wang Yi finally showed up, dragging her suitcase as she walked in and collapsing onto her bed.
"Wang Yi, why did you come so late today?" asked my roommate Lin Qing curiously as she approached Wang Yi.
"Oh, nothing much; I just stayed home a few extra days," Wang Yi replied nonchalantly.
"Wang Yi, did you send out red envelopes in the Freshman Group today?" Lin Qing asked again.
"Yeah, just some small amounts; it's nothing to mention," Wang Yi waved her hand dismissively.
"Wang Yi, how did you suddenly become so wealthy?"
Lin Qing looked at Wang Yi with envy.
"It's all thanks to Sister Qiu. When I have time, I'll take you all to meet her. Her company is quite large, and if you want to work there, I can help you get in."
Wang Yi sat up, looking at our group of roommates with a proud expression.
"Wow, Wang Yi, you're amazing!"
"Wang Yi, you're the best! You have such a great job; you have to take me with you!"
"Wang Yi, we’ll be relying on you from now on."
...
Several roommates gathered around Wang Yi, filled with admiration.
Wang Yi was flattered by the compliments and turned to me.
"Zhou Xinran, Sister Qiu said she wants me to take you to meet her tomorrow. Are you going?"
I shook my head. "I'm not going."
Wang Yi scoffed, "If you're not going, then forget it."
"Xinran, if you're not going, that's fine. Wang Yi, I'll go with you tomorrow," Lin Qing chimed in.
Lin Qing had just moved in last semester, but surprisingly, in just two months, she had become quite close to Wang Yi despite not having much interaction before.
Life is full of surprises!
Wang Yi was quick; within an hour, she organized a gathering.
The gathering was set at a hot pot restaurant near the school.
At the dinner table, Wang Yi and Li Daqiu sat together, chatting and laughing while enjoying Western cuisine that they usually couldn't afford.
Wang Yi took a photo and posted it on her social media.
In the picture, they were seated at several tables adorned with steak, salad, bread, and more.
Before long, the other two roommates returned to the dormitory.
Liu Hong glanced around the dorm and noticed that Wang Yi and Lin Qing were missing.
"Are they not here?" Liu Hong asked.
I nodded.
"Oh, I see. Sister Qiu arranged the work, and it hasn't come to us yet. Wang Yi and Lin Qing's family conditions aren't good, so they got a chance before us," Liu Hong explained.
I glanced at Liu Hong, surprised by her open-mindedness.
"Liu Hong, don't you find it strange?" I asked tentatively.
"What's so strange about it?" Liu Hong retorted.
"Wang Yi and Lin Qing have both been assigned work, but we're still waiting. Don't you think there's something off about that?" I pressed again.
"What could be the problem? Maybe we’ll get some benefits from this," Liu Hong said nonchalantly.
I sighed helplessly, unsure of what to say next.
