375 Roommates
Drawing lots is a simple game.
It was completely luck-based.
There were two glass boxes on the table in the living room.
The pink one was for the women, and the blue one for the men.
!!
There were a few stacked cards inside with a secret code written on them. Everyone would take turns drawing a card, and if the secret code matched, they would be roommates.
As there were an odd number of men and women, one person would have their own room. However, this was only temporary. When new guests came in later, they would all have a roommate.
The men didn’t really care since they would be staying with another man. If they had a female roommate…things would be different.
The camera was mainly focused on the women.
The draw was about to begin, and Nan Miaomiao came back mysteriously after talking to a staff member.
When Sonya asked her what she was doing, Nan Miaomiao covered the mic and whispered so that only the two of them could hear, “a staff member called Xiao Xia told me just now that there was a way to get the roommate you want…”
Sonya raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
Nan Miaomiao said, “the patterns on the cards with the same secret codes are the same. Although they are folded, if you look carefully, you can still see some of the patterns on the back. We’ll just choose the same one.”
Sonya nodded calmly, not as excited as Nan Miaomiao.
The men were done quickly. Wang Yi was lucky enough to not have a roommate for now. Lu Shang was with Mr. Li Shuguo, while Casar was with Xiao Ken.
Since they both wanted to help Su Ji carry her luggage, there was something more in their eyes when they looked at each other.
At this moment, Casar stretched out his long legs and said, “from now on, you’re not allowed to practice drums in the room.”
Xiao Ken crossed his legs and said nonchalantly, “why can’t I?”
Casar swiped his phone, “I need silence when I work.”
Xiao Ken retorted, “I need passion to create.”
Casar put away his phone and smiled. “I just studied the laws of your country. Noise above 60 decibels is considered a disturbance to the public. I’ll call the police. Do as you see fit.”
Xiao Ken: “…”
[ “Hahahaha, Xiao Ken has lost this round!” ]
[ “The prince got one point!” ]
Then, it was the women’s turn.
Jiang Cuiqin was highly respected, so everyone let her be the first to draw. Nan Miaomiao stared at the glass box on the side, trying to identify the patterns.
She realized that Jiang Cuiqin was very lucky to have taken the single room.
At the moment, only two kinds of patterns were left, one pink and the other yellow.
Nan Miaomiao picked one and opened it to see a yellow duck printed on it.
Ji Xi then picked the pink one, which had cherry blossoms on it.
Sonya was next, and whoever she drew would determine the grouping of the girls.
Su Ji did not care who she was paired with. She crossed her arms and leaned lazily on the sofa. She had a piece of lychee candy in her mouth and was watching Nan Miaomiao’s show.
Out of all the women, she was the one who was the most active and loved to be in a clique. Su Ji was very curious as to whether she would be able to share a room with her good friend as she wished.
Before Sonya stood up, Nan Miaomiao showed her the color of her letter.
Sonya nodded slightly.
Sonya stood next to the glass box and put her hand in. She moved her hand, and the order of the cards was messed up.
Nan Miaomiao became anxious. From the top, she could not see as clearly as from the side. This way, Sonya would not know which card to take.
After Nan Miaomiao looked from the side again, she started to signal to Sonya with her eyes.
She was telling her to take the one on the left.
Sonya knew how to keep everyone in suspense, so she didn’t take her hand out immediately, making everyone nervous.
[ “Ms. Nan can’t wait to see it. Hahaha!” ]
[ “Don’t break up Ms. Nan and Sonya! Let the them stay in the same room!” ]
[ “If they want to stick together, why come on the show? Why don’t they just hang out in private?” ]
[ “Shut up!” ]
In fact, it was not just Nan Miaomiao. Ji Xi was also focusing on her hand. Clearly, she also had a more ideal roommate in mind.
Sonya glanced at Nan Miaomiao, indicating that she had seen her signal.
Nan Miaomiao waited with a peace of mind. In the next second, she saw Sonya’s fair fingers move nimbly and pick up the one on the right.
Opening it, she saw pink cherry blossoms.
[ “Ah, what a pity!” ]
[ “She picked the wrong one!” ]
[ “Hahaha! Sonya looks disappointed, and Ms. Nan is about to cry!” ]
At this point, the roommates were determined.
Nan Miaomiao nudged Sonya, “what? Didn’t I hint at the one on the left?”
“I really thought I was holding the left one. It was hard to tell from the top…”
“Oh my, I…” Nan Miaomiao smacked herself on the head, “you’ve really put me in a bad spot…”
...
Sonya’s mistake was not a big deal, but she would have to bunk with that little vixen, Su Ji!
There were cameras around, so she couldn’t say anything more, but she was cursing internally.
If she had sinned, she would let the law punish her, why did they use such a cruel method?
Sonya patted her head to comfort her and looked apologetic. After she was done coaxing her, she walked over to Ji Xi and greeted her.
Sonya said politely, “I’m very happy to be your roommate. I’m quite close to Miaomiao, so I hoped that we could be placed together at first. Please don’t take that the wrong way.”
Ji Xi shook her head, “not at all.”
Sonya reached out her hand and said calmly, “then we’ll be roommates from now on. If I disturb you in any way, just let me know.”
Ji Xi shook her hand politely and glanced at Su Ji with regret.
It was impossible to find out if Sonya had really grabbed the wrong card by accident.
Anyway, Nan Miaomiao felt that it was a mistake, and the netizens felt the same.
Su Ji, who was sitting on the sofa and watching the show, didn’t think so.
...
She looked at Nan Miaomiao, who was about to become her roommate, and silently mouthed a word.
[ “Hey cutie?” ]
[ “Let’s go? ]
[ “Hi roommate?” ]
The audience guessed what she said, but in fact, what Su Ji said was, “stupid b*tch”.
