To be honest, Lin Qi was indeed a little surprised. He had actually understood Anna's thoughts a long time ago.

For a person who has actually lived for a long time, holds many secrets that people don't know, and is used to seeing the joys and sorrows of the world, Lin Qi knew what she was going to do as soon as she stuck her butt out.

But it is still a bit surprising that she can do this. At the same time, it is also very emotional. In fact, everyone's life is not easy.

Just to prove that she can surpass Sai Weiruila in some aspects, she has even arranged for home delivery. Of course, this does reflect the pressure she has been under before this.

Whenever people mention these promising and motivated girls in the circle, she will be compared with Sai Weiruila, and then suffer a disastrous failure.

Under such circumstances, her desire to defeat her old enemy is so strong that it seems easy to understand.

Lin Qi also smiled and stretched out his hand to shake her, "Hello, I am your new roommate, Lin Qi."

He said and suddenly couldn't help laughing.

Ugly people tend to shrink when they smile, but Lin Qi, such a sunny and handsome young man, smiles like those beautiful girls, which is pleasing to the eye.

"Is there anything funny?" Anna looked at the clothes on her body. She thought it was her fault, and even asked the other two girls if there was anything wrong with her body, face or head.

Lin Qi waved his hands and told the reason why he was laughing, "Because roommate, you know, this word often appears in prison..."

Federal's prison, including the prison in another world, is composed of many prison cells. The so-called prison cells are actually rooms used to hold criminals.

Each place has some different names to show their relationship with each other and also to reflect their class.

However, in the place where Lin Qi lived at that time, people were very gentle. This may be because people of too low class could not enter that place.

People don't call other people by their names, but they uniformly call each other "roommate

This is Yaren's joy in suffering, and no matter what, they are indeed friends, and they are called best friends.

Anna The roommate he suddenly mentioned and the sentence he repeated reminded him of so many interesting things in the past that he couldn't stop laughing.

Those bastards must not have thought that not only did he leave that place alive, but he also started a new life.

His temperament and demeanor seemed to have undergone another change and sublimation in a short period of time, becoming more and more dazzling in the eyes of the girls.

Even the brown-haired girl who talked little secretly took a few more glances at Lin Qi by pushing up her glasses.

"I've never heard of this joke..." Anna frowned and thought for a moment, "And it's not funny either."

The poor use of international vocabulary means that one word often has many meanings, or one meaning can be described with many words. The word "friend in prison" does not look like a funny joke, and she can't laugh.

And what she meant was "friends who live in the same house." If some foreshadowing is added, the word will even evolve into "people who live together."

"Okay, don't think about these things, just take me to my room." Lin Qi didn't bring any salutes. He would leave early tomorrow morning, and staying in school today was just a ceremonial process.

It's like the groom and the bride have known each other since they were children, and they have been fighting each other for many years before finally getting married. Although they are obviously more familiar with each other's bodies than each other, they still have the ritual process of the wedding night.

The result is not important, but the process is. This is also the spiritual pursuit of Federal people.

Lin Qi's room is on the second floor, the second door on the left. The area of 25 square meters is actually not too small, but most people living here think the room is too small and the house is too small.

There is a bed in the room with the headboard next to the window and against the wall. There is a desk in front of the window. There is a simple bookshelf next to the desk. There is a wardrobe at the foot of the bed, next to the door. There is also a square table under the wall next to the door, which can be used to put something.

The room was very clean, and there was a fragrance that could only be emitted by girls, and there were more than one. It seemed that they were all involved in the cleaning activities.

"Are you satisfied?" Anna walked into the room and touched it casually. It could be seen from the small movements of rubbing her fingers that she actually did not clean. She may have acted as a supervisor and the other two girls cleaned. Her doing so was just a subconscious behavior.

It was probably like the subconscious instinct of randomly checking everywhere after issuing a general cleaning order. If she had also cleaned this room, she would not do that because she was very aware of the hygiene issues here.

"You can borrow some books from the library and put them here, as long as they are returned before Spring Break, summer vacation and winter vacation."

"The school does not equip the dormitories with TVs, but they have provided signal cables. If you want to watch TV, I can have someone bring one over for you..." She said, turning around and looking at Lin Qi, "Would you like to get a TV?"

Lin Qi shook his head, "No need."

This may also be a very obvious difference. In some more ordinary universities, students are proud to have their own TV, but here, no one has time to watch TV.

Including those Recommended Students, they are either socializing or in the laboratory or library.

Studying and socializing are much more important than watching TV, to the extent that it can give students a living environment that is already difficult to evaluate, but it cannot give them a TV - people here generally think that watching TV now is a waste of time.

Some of the content they need on TV can be obtained from newspapers. For some content that is not in newspapers, their servants will record it for them and wait for them to watch it again when they go back on the weekend.

Having a TV in a regular school dormitory is a sign of "successful people," but here, that's just mediocrity.

No social circle, no ambition.

"I will leave early tomorrow morning, and I don't know when I will come back, so there is no need to prepare anything for me." Lin Qi walked to the bed and sat down. He patted the bed and said, "If you can, help me change to a plank bed."

He stood up as he said that. He was not used to sleeping on spring beds and soft beds, but Federal people loved these mattresses. This may have something to do with the habits of the entire country and nation.

Many years ago, they used horse hair or palm tree hair to weave soft mattresses. Later, people invented spring beds and rubber mattresses. Even the president would lie comfortably on a soft mattress at night with a satisfied smile, but Lin Qi just couldn't stand it.

He had slept on a hard bed for decades, and sleeping on this would only cause pain in his back.

"No problem, I'll have someone come over and help you get this done!" Anna agreed without any hesitation. As the president of Student Union, she has the power to replace a small mattress. "Are there any other requirements?"

Lin Qi shook his head. In fact, even if he comes back from Nagaril, he won't stay here for too long. There are not many teachers here who can teach him the knowledge he needs. Except for occasionally staying here when he takes a break, he is unlikely to stay for a long time, so he has no more requirements.

The girl left quickly. She would be very busy today. It would be a leisure time for her to take time to send Lin Qi back.

Before leaving, she told Lin Qi that she had reserved a seat at the restaurant and that everyone would go to celebrate together in the evening.

Anna is a very smart girl. If it weren't for Sai Weiruila's unreasonable biological father, she would most likely be on par with Sai Weiruila, or even surpass her by a bit.

She did not say that she invited Lin Qi to have dinner alone, which seemed to have too many ambiguous elements. Instead, she used the excuse of the entire dormitory to celebrate the new roommate and invited Lin Qi to have dinner, so that would be much better.

No matter it was her, he, or they, they couldn't find many faults, and Lin Qi wasn't that easy to refuse.

Without much hesitation, Lin Qi agreed, just for a meal.

After Anna left, he walked around the school and left the school before lunch. As soon as he left the school gate, Lyme was already waiting for him on the roadside.

The first time he saw Lin Qi approaching, he took off the cigarette in his mouth and threw it on the ground. He quickly walked up to him, and when he approached the car, he opened the door for Lin Qi.

Sitting in the car, there was no scorching sunshine, which made Lin Qi feel much better. He asked casually, "How much investment have you attracted?"

Lyme, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked a little embarrassed, "It's not a lot, less than two million, to be precise, it's 1.89 million."

There was a big gap between this number and what he imagined. He originally thought that there would be a zero added to the end of this number!

But the reality was that the speeding train aimed at his waist and gave him a slap, making him realize the bloody reality.

People are willing to hand over financial accounts with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to him, but they will never hand over cash to him so easily.

Because no matter how the money in the financial account changes, it belongs to the owner of the account. If Lyme wants to get more commissions and commissions, he must ensure that these accounts are in a profitable state.

But once the cash is delivered to Lyme, no one can tell whether the money in Lyme's pocket is their money. There is no guarantee at all.

For people who can make it to this level without going bankrupt, it is already a very simple matter to bankrupt a company and make themselves rich at the same time, so Lyme has little to gain.

Except for a few people who are willing to invest a small amount for the sake of Lin Qi, most people still hold a wait-and-see attitude.

Lin Qi has known this result for a long time, but this is a necessary process. He must let Lyme understand a crucial point.

He, Lyme, is a small person who has no value to this world. What is valuable is Lin Qi, so Lyme must adjust his mentality as soon as possible and stop having his heart set on money that does not belong to him.

This is what practitioners in high-end finance must face. They may earn astronomical amounts of wealth for their employers from a certain case, but their own commissions are not much. They must get used to it and accept this, otherwise they will not stay in this industry for long.

Lin Qi nodded noncommittally, "It doesn't matter, we still have a chance."
