Mo Ning was surprised as well and he quickly helped him up. She apologized and said, “Sorry, I’m not used to being so close to people. That was a reflex. Are you alright? Should I take you to the hospital?”
The young man ma.s.saged the back of his waist and gave her a grin.
“You’ve got moves, but that’s a funny quirk you have there. We are all men, there’s no need to be shy.”
He stood up straight and smiled warmly. “I’m fine, there is no need for a hospital visit. After all, I am a strong and healthy man.”
Mo Ning coughed. “That’s great.”
Eighteen years of being a woman made it almost impossible for her to switch into “guy” mode.
Just then, another student in the room whistled.
He looked handsome and well-dressed. There was a naive edge about his demeanour, but that did not hurt his appeal at all.
Unlike the other two roommates’ daily dressing, he wore a casual s.h.i.+rt and pants that were clearly expensive.
He must come from a wealthy or aristocratic family.
“Mo Ning, right? You couldn’t be a secret agent from some mercenary organization, would you?”
The others may not realize it, but he did.
Mo Ning’s attack earlier was swift and precise. It was a reflex borne out of professional training.
Mo Ning frowned but he did not get the chance to respond.
“What kind of nonsense is that? Do you think this is a spy movie? He is what we call a well-rounded person!”
The female senior student retorted promptly.
“…”
The two young men scowled in return.
The third occupant was a quiet and solitary young man.
He went about his business silently during the entire exchange with their new roommate.
When the female senior finally left, Mo Ning began to unpack her things.
She worked quickly and was soon done with making up the bed and arranging her things into their respective places.
The happy young man was called Luo Bei and was a chatty one.
It did not take long for her to learn more about the others through him.
The handsome roommate who commented earlier was a genius called Huo Junyu.
He was not even seventeen years old but he had taken two and a half years off from school before enrolling in the university.
The final roommate, the solitary guy, was called Gao Mo.
He was a tall and quiet person who liked to avoid attention and minded his own business.
As a guy, Mo Ning encountered an obvious problem on her first day in university.
The bathroom.
“Ning, do you want to use the washroom?” Lu Bei invited her to come along and even called her by her first name.
“…” Mo Ning went silent for a long while and tried to mask her awkwardness. “Go ahead, I don’t need to use it yet.”
“Okay.”
Mo Ning had thought that disguising as a man was not too difficult, but she realized then that there were many inconveniences.
She would have to use a secluded bathroom and take showers late at night. The latter was also done as fast as she could manage.
Moreover, she had to deal with all the flirty looks from the girls wherever she went and that made her uncomfortable.
Hours pa.s.sed and soon night fell.
Mo Ning sat in front of her study desk and typed rapidly on her keyboard.
Luo Bai woke up from his sleep and approached her. He saw lines of complicated code on the screen and exclaimed in awe, “Mo Ning, you can do coding?”
Mo Ning replied without looking away from the screen, “It’s just a part time stint. I can earn some pocket money by writing simple software.”
As a self-taught programmer, she would surf popular forums and websites to look for coding jobs. Occasionally, she would provide technical a.s.sistance to larger companies.
