Back to high school, Peking University is beckoning me

Chapter 139 Is it colder in the south or the north?

When Lu Youning returned to the dormitory, the three people in the dormitory had drawn the curtains and were taking a nap.

She closed the door gently, went to the water dispenser to get half a cup of warm water, and took the cold medicine with it.

Then he climbed onto the bed, drew the curtains, and got under the quilt to send a message to Ruan Fuxi.

[Lu Youning]: "Boyfriend, have you arrived at the dormitory?"

Ruan Fuxi quickly replied, "Almost there. Has Ningning taken her medicine and come out?"

[Lu Youning]: "Yes, I've eaten and am already in bed. Go back to the dormitory and get some hot water to drink, so you don't catch a cold."

[Lu Youning]: "Also, don't train too hard, it will hurt me."

[Ruan Fuxi]: "I know, my little housekeeper."

[Lu Youning]: "Who is your little housekeeper? I am a little fairy/tsundere little expression."

[Ruan Fuxi]: "Slip of the tongue, it's my little fairy."

When Lu Youning saw this, her face immediately turned red with shame and she thought: Who is your family?

Fortunately, Chen Muyan and the others didn’t see it, otherwise they would have teased her again for blushing.

So I replied: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to sleep. Bye."

……

After waking up from his nap, Lu Youning's cold had worsened. His throat started to hurt and his nose was blocked.

There was a cry from downstairs, and Chen Muyan ran to the balcony to see what was happening. She turned to them and said, "What a fuss! I thought something was wrong, but it turned out to be snowing, the first snow of the year."

Lu Youning chuckled and said, "You're from the north, don't you know that it hardly ever snows in southern cities? Even if it does, it's just a light snow that melts quickly."

Lin Jiajia was also very excited, "Yes, everyone in the south looks forward to snow."

Xiao Yun heard Lu Youning's voice become even hoarse, and said, "Youning, let me go buy medicine with you. You have a serious cold."

Lu Youning said in a hoarse voice: "No, I have medicine. Ruan Fuxi brought it to me."

Chen Muyan gossiped, "The one in your family braved the cold wind and snow to send you medicine. That's really thoughtful of you."

After a pause, he continued, "Do you still need to go to class? Why don't you just rest in the dormitory? If the teacher calls your name, I'll call you. Anyway, the class later is a literature appreciation class, so it's not very important."

Lin Jiajia also agreed, "That's right, Youning, the three of us will cover for you."

Lu Youning looked at them gratefully, shook her head slightly and said, "Thank you. I'd better go. I'm quite interested in this class."

Xiao Yun frowned. "You can't just hold on like this. What if you get really uncomfortable in class?"

Lu Youning coughed twice and forced a smile, "It's okay, if I really feel uncomfortable, I will come back." After that, she packed her textbooks into her schoolbag and prepared to go to class with them.

The four of them walked out of the dormitory together. The snow was still falling. A layer of snow had accumulated on the ground, and everything was white.

A cold wind blew and Lu Youning couldn't help but sneeze.

Lin Jiajia quickly tilted the umbrella towards Lu Youning, "Youning, you have to be careful and don't let your condition get worse."

Lu Youning nodded and wrapped her clothes tightly around her.

On the way, the students were excitedly discussing the snow.

Chen Muyan couldn't help but say, "This year's first snow is quite heavy. By tomorrow, it will have accumulated into a thick layer."

Lin Jiajia said cheerfully, "That's great. We can build snowmen and have snowball fights. It will definitely be fun."

Chen Muyan agreed, "Sure, there will definitely be a lot of people playing by then."

Xiao Yun glanced at Lu Youning and said, "Youning has a cold, so she can't play with you guys."

Lu Youning raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "It's okay, as long as you guys have fun, it's not bad for me to watch from the side."

As they talked, they walked towards the teaching building.

Lu Youning looked at his classmates walking on the street. Some of them were holding umbrellas, while others were not.

I once heard netizens say that people who carry umbrellas are from the south, and those who don’t are from the north. I don’t know if this is true.

When Lu Youning and her friends arrived at the classroom, there were only a few scattered classmates inside.

They found a seat near the back and sat down. Lu Youning took out a thermos from her bag and sipped the hot water.

Lin Jiajia, Chen Muyan and Xiao Yun, two northerners, were chatting about which place was colder in the north or the south in winter.

Lin Jiajia spoke first, "Although the outdoor temperature in the north is extremely low in winter, the heating inside makes it feel as warm as spring. It's different in the south. It's cold both inside and outside, and the damp chill can penetrate your bones."

Chen Muyan laughed and retorted, "The cold in the south is only a few degrees above zero. You can withstand it by wearing more clothes. It's nothing compared to the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero in the north."

Xiao Yun said, "I can't imagine how cold it is in the south."

Lin Jiajia argued unconvincedly, "But there's no heating in the south, and it's hard to dry clothes in the winter. Everything gets wet. You can't understand how uncomfortable that is, but it's really cold."

Lu Youning drank the hot water slowly, listening to them arguing without saying a word.

Soon, more and more students filled the classroom. Lu Youning said, "What's there to argue about? I think it's all cold. It's just that the way it's cold is different. The cold in the north is dry and biting, while the cold in the south is wet and chilling, penetrating into the flesh and bones."

Chen Muyan laughed and joked, "Youning, you're trying to smooth things over, but it's not wrong."

At this time, the teacher walked into the classroom and the classroom became quiet instantly.

After roll call, the class began. Since the literature appreciation class is an elective course, most people come to earn credits, so it is easier to slack off.

Normally, Lu Youning didn't think it was a big deal because she was quite interested in literature. But maybe because of the cold and stuffy nose, she felt a little dazed while listening to the teacher's class today.

Halfway through the class, Lu Youning's phone screen suddenly lit up.

She quietly lowered her head to check. It was a message from Ruan Fuxi: "Ningning, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

Lu Youning pursed her lips and replied, "I'm still not feeling well, but I'm attending classes." After sending the message, she took a deep breath and turned her attention back to the class.

Ruan Fuxi: "If you really feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself, okay?"

Ruan Fuxi: "I'll come find you after class. Where do you have class?"

There was no response for a long time after the message was sent, so Ruan Fuxi had to focus on the class again.

The class ended quickly and Lu Youning was packing up her textbooks to go home.

Fortunately, there is only one class this afternoon, otherwise she really couldn't hold on.

She checked the message on her phone and quickly replied: "No need to come over, my roommate and I will go back."

Just after sending the message, Ruan Fuxi called.

"Hey~" Lu Youning coughed lightly and said softly.

"Well, Ningning, why is your voice even hoarse?"

"It will take a few days for the cold to heal. I've taken medicine, so don't worry. Don't come over if you still have classes. I'll go back to the dormitory to rest." Lu Youning said.

"Alright then! Go back to the dorm and get some rest."
