Chapter 140: Circe Toasts to Odysseus.



Chapter 140

Seeing the upperclassmen returning to the dorms with fruit and snacks, fully fed, Su Xiaoqi was famished with hunger pangs.

Even Gu Yunshu started missing the aroma of rice, and she usually didn\'t care for staple foods.

Looking at her interface, Chen Mier didn\'t expect the instructor\'s training volume to be so high. She had almost completed 30,000 steps today.

With training this intense, no matter how handsome the instructor was, the girls had lost all interest. He was simply a devil.

Fortunately, the devil finally said they were dismissed.

The entire ground was filled with the soft moans and groans.

As they walked, they leaned on each other for support, unexpectedly developing comradeship.

Chen Mier was also leaning on Su Xiaoqi. Chen Mier had a good figure, plump and curvy, protruding in the front and back. She felt a bit heavy, like Su Xiaoqi\'s fitness coach, but Su Xiaoqi was strong and had no problem supporting her.

Gu Yunshu was also very tired, but was too embarrassed to rely on her deskmate like Chen Mier did, just holding onto Wei Cheng\'s arm.

The group first went to the cafeteria. When they reached the cafeteria entrance, Chen Mier suddenly came to life, rushing in first to grab a seat.

In the end, they didn\'t get a seat by the window. There were just too many people. But Chen Mier still fought hard, finding them a seat against the wall.

Su Xiaoqi and the others first went to get food.

Dinner offerings that night had some variations, like seaweed pork rib soup, tea mushroom old duck soup, fried chicken legs, okra, braised egg and pork, and so on, with a rich variety of ten dishes.

Su Xiaoqi quite liked the school cafeteria. Each dish was served in its own little bowl, self-serve style. She could take what she wanted. For a few dorm mates, it was like one big shared table.

Of course, Su Xiaoqi still had a huge appetite. She took three main dishes, two vegetable and one meat, plus a soup. Her plates were all filled up. When she went to pay, others thought she was helping her roommates carry their portions too. In fact, this was just her own meal. With 30,000 steps of exercise a day, Su Xiaoqi needed a lot of calories.

That night, Gu Yunshu finally took some proper main dishes. She seemed to not eat much during the day, and was really hungry now.

Su Xiaoqi sat down without immediately eating, waiting for everyone to come before starting.

Sitting against the wall, she looked up and noticed huge oil paintings hanging up.

Glancing around the cafeteria, although crowded with people, it didn\'t feel congested or uncomfortable. Perhaps because the ceilings were high, two stories like a normal house, with bright floor-to-ceiling windows and fancy European-style antique chandeliers, giving a very expansive atmosphere.

The oil paintings on the walls also made it feel very upper class.

The painting before her depicted a woman in flimsy gauze, holding a wine glass in one hand and a sword in the other, sitting on a chair with a mirror behind her, and the mirror reflected a bearded man bowing to her.

The name on the bottom corner of this painting was: “Circe Offering Wine to Odysseus” by John William Waterhouse.

Su Xiaoqi\'s first impression was that this woman seemed to be completely nude, with nothing on under the gauze, able to make out the fullness of her breasts, the slight roundness of her belly, legs, feet, arms.

The thin gauze covered yet revealed everything.

The woman had a somewhat stern expression on her face.

Flanking the chair she sat on were two fierce looking stone animal statues.

Su Xiaoqi wanted to know what it would feel like as her art appreciation skills improved, so she studied the painting very carefully. She just felt this painting had a rather stiff quality.

She felt the woman\'s body could be softer and more graceful, not like plaster.

The facial expression could also be more pure and gentle.

After looking for a while, she didn\'t gain special insights and felt she could find some related books in the library later to read more.

Just then, Chen Mier also returned with food. Her plates held many desserts. She seemed to really like sweets.

Wei Cheng as usual chose simple, practical options.

Su Xiaoqi placed the dishes on the table, and everyone else also put out their food, turning it into one big shared table.

With no rushed military training that night, they could take their time eating.

But Su Xiaoqi always ate quickly. She finished while Gu Yunshu was still pecking at her rice like a chicken, not even halfway through that bowl.

Chen Mier had also wasted a bunch of pastries again.

Wei Cheng ate slowly and steadily, seeming embarrassed to finish too fast.

After Su Xiaoqi ate her fill, she took out those 30 Japanese vocabulary words to review again.

After reciting them once, she felt confident. She took out a pen and notebook, wrote them out from memory, then checked them over. Almost all correct.

"Su Xiaoqi, you\'re actually learning Japanese?" Chen Mier leaned over curiously.

Her family\'s factory also worked with some contracts for Japanese clients. Japanese were super nitpicky, but paid high prices, so it was a love-hate relationship. Their hired translators were always troublesome. Her dad had wanted her to study Japanese, nagging her a few times about it, but she ignored him. She didn\'t expect her dormmate to be studying it.

"Is it easy to learn? I want to study too."

Seeing Su Xiaoqi learning it, Chen Mier immediately thought if she knew it too, she could show off when she returned home for the holidays to those male chauvinists in the family.

"It\'s pretty easy, simpler than English. But I\'m also a beginner. I plan to see if the school has any specialized training programs and sign up for one."

After the group finished eating, they slowly walked back to the dorms.

Everyone felt like their whole body had been steamrolled. Back in the dorm, Gu Yunshu didn\'t rush to use the bathroom to shower. Chen Mier went first. Gu Yunshu called home for a while.

Seeing there was only one bathroom and they had to take turns anyway, Su Xiaoqi didn\'t disturb Wei Cheng who was reading intently, just took her change of clothes and went to shower first.

When Su Xiaoqi came out after her shower, she saw someone sitting in her chair, probably the classmate that Chen Mier had mistaken for Gu Yunshu\'s hometown friend yesterday, but was actually just someone who had come with Gu Yunshu to sign up, Rong Jiaojiao from Class 3 of the Business Administration Department. Gu Yunshu had a faint expression while Rong Jiaojiao was all smiles and very chummy.

Seeing Su Xiaoqi come out, Rong Jiaojiao belatedly realized she had sat in someone else\'s seat. She stood up awkwardly.

Yesterday when she came to sit here, she just habitually sat in the same spot today.

"It\'s fine, you can sit," Su Xiaoqi said. Having just showered, she didn\'t plan on sitting down to study. Today\'s moves taught by Instructor Li hadn\'t been practiced yet, and the instructor said not to keep sitting unless necessary.

"By the way, do you guys want to buy desk lamps or emergency lights? They sell them at the student market. Lights out isn\'t until 11pm the first week in the dorms, but once classes start, lights will be turned off for evening self-study." Rong Jiaojiao asked.

Gu Yunshu shook her head. "My mom said she\'ll have someone deliver them to me."

Chen Mier also shook her head. "I saw them yesterday. The ones at the student market aren\'t good. I want to buy them downtown. Let\'s go downtown after military training, Xiaoqi."

Wei Cheng went to take a shower.

Xiaoqi really wanted to buy a desk lamp, but after all it would be used for at least four years, so she also wanted to go downtown and take a look around, and nodded in agreement with her deskmate.

At this time, Rong Jiaojiao suddenly said in surprise while holding her phone: "Our military training is on TikTok!"

She had just seen Su Xiaoqi come out and felt a little uncomfortable, she didn\'t know why. She sat next to Gu Yunshu and always felt that this girl seemed to see through her thoughts at a glance, while Gu Yunshu remained indifferent. She took out her phone and casually scrolled through TikTok, but did not expect to actually scroll upon their military training.

Inside was a girl with waist-length hair, sharp chin and high nose bridge, briskly marching and turning left and right on the blue sky and white clouds drill ground. The comments were all like:

Such a beautiful girl...

The girl is so pretty...

I can\'t believe private aristocratic schools also have military training...

Stanning, stanning...

The girl is an English major, pretty and good grades, I love it...

The TikTok title was just "Military Training at a Private Aristocratic School".
