Tan Mo must be the fresher with the least amount of luggage.

Qiao Lan also carried a small case, while Tan Mo had only a mobile phone on his person.

The man is afraid of trouble and everything, including clothes, is ready to be bought all over again after he has signed up today.

The orientation was very lively.

Small colourful flags stretched from the entrance of the school to the registration office, and there were seniors in all colours of t-shirts everywhere, asking which college they were from when one came in.

Mathematics is one of the top majors at Peking University, and it is also a key major for top students, so even the registration area is a little more prominent than other majors.

Tan Mo glanced over there and saw that it was full of people. Tan Mo subconsciously didn't want to go there, he didn't like the environment already, not to mention the suffocating registration office.

Tan Mo is now so good at hiding her true feelings that even her eyes can conceal them from Qiao Lan.

"You really don't need me to go with you," Qiao Lan asks.

"No," Tan Mo said, handing the small suitcase back to Qiao Lan, "call me when you find the dormitory."

"Good," Qiao Lan said, as she and Tan Mo agreed to go shopping after registration, and Tan Mo was missing so many things.

Qiao Lan was not sure, but Tan Mo had always been taken care of. While looking for a place in the psychology program, Qiao Lan looked back at Tan Mo, carrying a suitcase in his hand, and looking back three times, as if he had never seen anything before.

Qiao Lan was definitely the calmest one today, after all she had already been through it once, and then she also went to orientation in her sophomore year, so she was quite familiar with the general process.

Qiao Lan walked around and finally saw a banner under the shade of a tree that read Psychology.

Peking University's psychology is one of the top majors in China, but it is not a popular major, and the number of students enrolled is very small.

Qiao Lan thought that the place would be quite quiet, and that it would be easy to pick up a total of 70 students in two days. But when we arrived, we found that there were quite a lot of people packed together, and it looked much busier than the next few majors.

When Qiao Lan walked past, the schoolmistress sitting at the front of the statistics heard the sound of a rolling suitcase and hurriedly yelled to the back, "Keep your voice down, there are new students arriving, give me the notice..."

She looked at Qiao Lan and froze, then looked down at Qiao Lan's acceptance letter and her voice softened for a moment, "It's so hot, go inside, sit down first and fill this out."

When they got a better look at Qiao Lan's face, their eyes lit up and they pushed their way over to her.

As soon as a few people dispersed, Qiao Lan understood why there were so many people here.

Qiao Lan saw him, and the words "neighbour" popped up in her head, because she couldn't tell how tall he was sitting.

How else could there be so many people here alone, after all there are handsome men sitting in the room.

But even though he is a handsome man, he is far worse than Tan Mo and is roughly on the same level as Chen Yaoyang Hao Ying.

Qiao Lan has a filter on Tan Mo, and no one looks better with Tan Mo closed.

Qiao Lan took a look and withdrew her eyes, took the pen handed to her by her sister and filled in her major name on the form, while the other two boys who had crowded over asked Qiao Lan questions.

"Nice word for a schoolgirl."

"Thank you".

"Where's the schoolgirl."

"S Province."

"Alas my house is in the next province", said the senior, looking behind Qiao Lan to see that there was no one else there.

"Did the schoolgirl come alone?"

"No," Qiao Lan said as she handed the pen back to her sister after filling out the form and smiled at the senior, "I'm here with my boyfriend."

The excited senior was instantly stuck, and the few sisters behind her were immediately amused, and the one who had asked Qiao Lan to fill out the list at the beginning took over and continued to gossip, "What about your boyfriend, he didn't come to accompany you to register?"

"He's over there, we signed up separately," Qiao Lan said, pointing to a few majors in the distance, "Thank you, Sister."

"No thanks, I'll walk you to the dormitory", the senior stood up, and it wasn't until Qiao Lan was gone that a few seniors began to exclaim, "Damn, double academics! It turns out that such a thing as a couple getting into a top school together really exists.

But what hit the seniors hard was that the psychology program was already low on enrollment, and it was so hard to get such a pretty girl, but it turned out that she was already booked.

Why are students so ignorant these days? They're not even here yet, and they're stealing from the seniors, so tell me if it's too much!

The two sisters who had gone out to pick up people came back and said that the maths department was particularly busy and asked why.

"I heard there was a student with an unbelievable face, and a bunch of people ran over to see what was going on."

"You went too?"

"That's for sure", she said with pride and excitement when she was done, "He's over 185 at a visual estimate, really handsome!"

"Are all the new students this year so good-looking?"

"Who else?"

"There's also a girl in our major who's got a great face and long legs, but she's already got a boyfriend."

"It's none of your business if they don't have a boyfriend..."

"Shit," the crowd erupted in laughter as the white-shirted boy who had been sitting at the back of the room casually picked up the sign-up sheet he had just been given and read the name on it.

Qiao Lan.

Qiao Lan was the first to arrive and there was no one else in the dormitory.

Qiao Lan found her bunk, put her suitcase in the locker and went downstairs with her mobile phone ID to find Tan Mo.

I had just chatted with the girl who dropped her off and found out the location of the Maths dormitory, which wasn't very close, but Qiao Lan was good at remembering her way around and it took her about ten minutes to get to Tan Mo's dormitory building.

Find a shade and call Tan Mo.

The boys always get to know each other quickly over a small, congenial topic.

Tan Mo is enrolled in Peking University's ace major, a major that is already full of bullying students, Peking University admits ten or so top students every year, two of them are majoring in mathematics this year, and the rest have scored over 650 points on average. The four students in Tan Mo's dormitory are the best of the best, all with scores of 700 or above.

The biggest of them all is Tan Mo.

After introducing herself, Xie Hongyi covered her face and sighed, "I can't keep my 221st face."

Tan Mo had never experienced such a direct conversation with a stranger before, and he was a little unsure of what to say or do, looking at the white, self-effacing boy in front of him, and subconsciously his mind popped back into the various emotion interpretations and mimicry responses he had learned earlier.

When he truly didn't know what to do, translating it into borrowing someone else's thinking, everything seemed much easier, and he smiled and even managed to joke, "Keep it and let it go."

"Xie Hongyi subconsciously tries to reach out and tap Tan Mo on the shoulder, but Tan Mo dodges him without a trace.

Xie Hongyi didn't notice, but when he reached out and found Tan Mo was more than half a head taller than he was, he thought he shouldn't make an ass of himself and withdrew his hand, chanting, "There's already a buddy here, his parents came with him, and he's going around with them now. I didn't let my mum come with me. Are you here alone too? Are you from the area? You didn't even bring your luggage..."

Tan Mo didn't know which of these questions to answer, and finally picked the one he was most willing to answer, "Not alone, I have a girlfriend."

"Ha," Xie Hongyi said, dumbfounded, before turning around and thinking before suddenly saying, "Which two words are your name, brother?"

Why does it feel so familiar.

Tan Mo handed his notice to Xie Hongyi, who slapped his thigh and shouted, "I told you it sounded familiar! You're the top science student in the national paper, aren't you? I've seen your news before!"

Tan Mo found it very easy to meet a house mate who was familiar and talkative, and Xie Hongyi could answer her own questions without having to answer them.

"Damn you look like this how come there is no picture of you ah", Xie Hongyi excitedly said, "I tell you, before the Internet that the most handsome college entrance examination topper is simply to laugh, not as handsome as me yet the most handsome, see you look like this he may be ashamed to death believe it or not ..."

Tan Mo frowned, how to take this, it's always unethical to talk about people behind their backs or something.

No sooner had Tan Mo opened his mouth than the sound of a box being pushed at the door was heard.

"You're fucking making fun of me again, aren't you?" came a voice from the doorway, and a tall, thin boy pushing a big box stood in the doorway staring at Xie Hongyi, "You're just one point taller than you, and you've been keeping track for two fucking months... "

Xie Hongyi jumped up instantly, "Laozi can remember it for the rest of his life!"

Usually he was always the one who did well in the exams, but it turned out that this last time this person was actually higher than him, and even if he was higher, he ended up being one point higher and took the title of the top student in the province.

Tan Mo sensed something was wrong, "Did you know each other before?"

"Ah", the tall skinny boy pushing the box at the door walked in, "I know him, bunked on the front and back tables in high school, hi I'm Kong Sha."

"Tan Mo ."

"Come on, pack your stuff", Xie Hongyi said as he helped Kong Sha drag his suitcase in and continued to chat with Tan Mo, "I really read the news about you, I didn't know your surname at first so I was impressed, and then I read the comments under the news. Some students from your school told me that you never go to class and you're still openly dating someone, but you still come first in every exam.

Tan Mo: "...... thanks."

"Thanks for nothing, Xie Hongyi," he waved his hand, "Oh yes, you just said you came with your girlfriend, which school is your girlfriend from? Which school is your girlfriend from? I remember that the university also starts in these two days."

"No, it's also Peking University."

Xie Hongyi was shocked, "How many points did your subject get in the entrance exam?"

"721."

Tan Mo's whole facial line softens when he looks down after saying that his phone is ringing.

Xie Hongyi tugged at Kong Sha and whispered, "It must be his date, believe it or not."

Kong Sha gave Xie Hongyi a blank stare, what is there to believe in such an obvious question.

Looking at the smile on Tan Mo's face and listening to the laughter in his voice, the two of them watched Tan Mo leave the door after the phone hung up, Kong Sha looked at Xie Hongyi and whispered, "Envious?"

"You don't know that at the time of registration several students were sending Tan Mo over, all of them were very pretty and definitely prettier than his girlfriend. "

College students can dress up, and due to the personal experience of this class, Xie Hongyi really doesn't think there are any particularly good looking girls in science classes.

Xie Hongyi's eyes lit up, "Look, I told you there are high value girls everywhere, this is too pretty, she could make a career..."

Before the words were out of his mouth, he saw his new roommate, who had just gone out, approaching the girl. The pretty girl smiled when she saw Tan Mo, and her smile became even more beautiful.

The girl was then swept up in Tan Mo's arms, got close enough to say something, and finally left together, arm in arm.

Xie Hongyi: "......"

Kong Sha had a smile brewing in his eyes, "What's wrong?"

Xie Hongyi ��� ...... Why didn't he have such a pretty girl in his class in high school? Why doesn't he have such a pretty girlfriend even now?

Fuck not envy.

What he just said doesn't count, he's old and envious now.
