Chapter 4: How About Just One Chapter Today?
After saying goodbye to Senior Sister, Jiang Miao walked towards Dormitory Building 31 at the side.
There were two aisles between the two dormitory buildings, with two rows of charging stations for electric scooters in between.
In addition, there was neatly arranged greenery, which should have been well-tended during the summer break. Those with OCD should feel very comfortable to look at the plants.
Jiang Miao entered the dormitory building and went to Room 412 on the fourth floor. He took out his key to open the door. Just as he was about to push the door open and enter, he heard a shout come from inside.
“Wait!”
Upon hearing the voice, Jiang Miao immediately stopped and pushed open the door to look inside.
A refined young man with fair skin and round glasses was standing in the middle of the dorm room with a mop in his hand, appearing to be cleaning.
Seeing Jiang Miao unlock the door, the young man promptly put down the mop, picked up a pair of slippers that had clearly been washed, and hurried over to Jiang Miao.
Jiang Miao watched as the young man knelt down on one knee and offered the slippers to him in all seriousness. Then he looked up and said earnestly, “I just finished mopping the floor by the door. Please change into these slippers.”
“… Thank you.” Jiang Miao was a little uncomfortable facing such a gesture, but he still followed the young man’s instructions and changed into slippers at the door.Then he noticed that the young man had already picked up his just-removed sneakers and placed them neatly on the shoe cabinet at the side.
He even adjusted the angle of the two pairs of shoes to align them perfectly with each other and parallel to the edge of the shoe cabinet while ensuring equal spacing both in front and behind.
It was a very comfortable sight to look at.
“Let me help,” Jiang Miao saw his roommate cleaning the dorm room, so he walked inside and reached for the mop.
“Wait!” The bespectacled young man immediately stopped him and took the mop. With a serious look, he said, “Please let me handle the cleaning.”
Jiang Miao: “…”
Since when did people compete to clean?
However, Jiang Miao looked around and found that there didn’t seem to be anything left to clean anyway.
The floor of the room had clearly been swept and mopped, reflecting a clean and glossy sheen under the sunlight, devoid of any stains.
Not only the floor, but even Jiang Miao’s desk and bookshelf seemed to have been thoroughly cleaned, looking as pristine as if they were new.
He glanced at the other three beds and desks. They had also been cleaned. Compared to when he first arrived, it looked like a completely different room.
He vaguely remembered that when he first entered the room, there was visible dust on the desks and floor, as well as trash bags and beverage bottles left behind by his predecessors. There was even a suspicious dark liquid on the balcony.
Jiang Miao had initially planned to clean it after returning.
But now, all those things were gone.
“Thanks. I appreciate you cleaning my desk too.”
“No problem, as long as you don’t mind me touching your desk.” The bespectacled young man adjusted his glasses.
“It’s fine. I should have cleaned it myself. Thanks for your help.” Jiang Miao waved his hand. Then he looked at the name tag on the young man’s bed and leaned closer to read the student’s name. “Hmm… you’re Wang Zi?”
“It’s Wang Xin,” the bespectacled young man corrected calmly.
“Oh, sorry, I misread it.” Jiang Miao took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case.
He had missed the radical at the end.
“You’re Jiang Miao, right?” Wang Xin confirmed.
Jiang Miao’s suitcase was beside the wardrobe of bed number 3 by the window. Wang Xin had clearly checked the name tag on this bed beforehand.
“That’s right.” Jiang Miao smiled happily and took out his phone. “Let’s add each other on WeChat.”
Wang Xin nodded. After adding Jiang Miao on WeChat, he walked to the bathroom with the mop. “I still need to clean the bathroom. Feel free to do your own things.”
“Need any help?”
“No thanks. Please let me clean alone,” Wang Xin said earnestly and then turned around and entered the bathroom.
He even locked the door.
It seemed he was afraid Jiang Miao might be too enthusiastic and go in to help.
Jiang Miao: “…”
Why is he competing to clean?
This roommate…
Very interesting!
Jiang Miao’s eyes brightened, and he felt inspiration gushing out like a tide.
He immediately grabbed his phone, opened the notes app, recorded Wang Xin’s personal characteristics, and saved the file in his character profiles.
Hmm… There’s also Senior Sister… She looks gentle and generous on the surface, but she’s actually a pure girl who loves to read romance novels.
Okay!
After enriching his character pool, Jiang Miao felt very satisfied. He put away his phone and began unpacking his luggage.
He put the clothes into the wardrobe, placed his laptop, mechanical keyboard, charger, and so on on the desk, and then made his bed with the school-provided bedsheets.
After finishing everything, Jiang Miao sat down at his desk. His eyes gradually becoming serious, he touched the delicate body of his keyboard with both hands. With light presses, crisp and pleasant sounds echoed.
Next, it was time to write.
From 4 to 5 p.m., Jiang Miao’s fingers moved like lightning in complete focus, pouring all his inspiration and passion onto the keyboard.
It wasn’t until he heard the sound of the bathroom door opening that he immediately moved his mouse and changed the font size to the smallest size six font available in the word processing software.
The next second, the text on the screen shrank to the size of an ant. Even though Jiang Miao was sitting at the desk, he had to squint to barely make out the words. Like this, he wouldn’t have to worry about Wang Xin seeing the specific content.
Then Jiang Miao looked at the word counter below. It was 1,106 words.
1,100 words in an hour… Not bad, not bad. I’ve improved again today. As expected of me.
With a bit more effort later, he would finish writing the chapter in no time.
Today was his first day of settling into school. With unpacking, cleaning, and touring the campus, it was normal not to have much time.
So, just one chapter today? Jiang Miao crossed his arms, nodded with a clear conscience, and gave himself a mental pat on the back.
“The bathroom’s clean.” Wang Xin pushed his glasses up with his index finger. His forehead glistened with sweat, but his eyes under the round glasses were very satisfied. His fair face looked slightly exhausted yet content.
Those who didn’t know might think he had been up to something in the bathroom…
“Thanks for your hard work.” After sitting for so long, Jiang Miao felt the urge to urinate, so he got up and walked to the bathroom while expressing gratitude to his dear roommate.
With such a model roommate who cleaned so willingly, how could he not be appreciated?
Jiang Miao entered the bathroom and was immediately dazzled by the gleaming reflection on the polished white tiles.
He stood at the bathroom entrance for a while before turning to look at the room to confirm that he had not entered an alternate dimension.
This degree of cleanliness was no longer cleaning but seemed more like renovating, right?
No wonder it took over an hour.
Jiang Miao sighed inwardly. He was even a little cautious while standing to relieve himself.
Looking at the immaculate and pristine toilet, he even felt embarrassed to offer his holy water.
It was clearly yellowish before.
But it was pure white now.
After solving his physiological needs in the bathroom, Jiang Miao came out after washing his hands and called out to Wang Xin. “It’s already so late. The other two shouldn’t be coming until tomorrow. How about we go eat?”
Wang Xin nodded. “Sure.”
The two of them tidied up and went out together.
When they went down the stairs, Jiang Miao checked his phone and received a reminder from a beloved reader urging him to release.
[Congee Boss]: Why isn’t there a release yet?!
