The next day, everyone overslept.
Having finally gotten up, Qiu Xi rubbed her head, still feeling a little dizzy. "Mm, my head still hurts a bit."
After sitting for a while, she got out of bed to wash up.
After washing, she felt much more awake. Seeing that her roommates hadn't gotten up yet, Qiu Xi tidied up the trash from last night, planning to dispose of it on her way to the canteen.
After getting herself ready and seeing no one else was up, Qiu Xi left on her own.
She browsed the canteen for a bit, realizing that for those who wanted to eat breakfast late, there wasn't much choice in the canteen. After looking around, she could only grab something casual.
After eating, thinking her roommates should be up by now, Qiu Xi packed three more portions and headed back to the dormitory.
As soon as she entered the dorm, she saw that the three of them were indeed awake, but they were still sitting on their beds, eyes half-closed.
With no other option, Qiu Xi had to act as an alarm clock. "Alright, if you're awake, hurry and wash up. I brought you breakfast."
"Ah, breakfast! I'm coming!" Song Daiyao reacted purely based on her foodie instincts.
After waiting a moment and seeing everyone was up, Qiu Xi got busy with her own tasks.
The gifts were packed, and she found a vase to put the flowers in, placing them on the table.
Then, she began preparing to study. She was too tired last night to complete her system learning, so she had to catch up today.
"Xiao Xi, are you going to the library this afternoon?" Liang Yunfei asked while eating at her seat.
Qiu Xi asked in return, "Are you guys going?"
"Yes, we need to look up some materials for the speech competition."
Qiu Xi thought for a moment and replied, "Then I'll go with you. I've finished organizing the materials Teacher Yan gave me, so I can go to the library to fill in any gaps."
"Okay, you study first then."
"Alright." She turned back and buried her head in her work.
"Beep! Junior Speech Training Course assessment passed, course completed."
"Xiao Hua, continue arranging the advanced speech course training."
"Okay, added to the planned schedule."
After studying for half the morning, Qiu Xi spent the afternoon in the library with her roommates. That night, it was time for speaking practice.
"After practicing for a while, there's finally some improvement. If I don't see any results, I'll start doubting myself," Song Daiyao complained as soon as training ended.
"Don't say that, Daiyao, you're just a late bloomer." Shen Yan's words sounded fine, but only if you ignored the barely concealed smile on her face.
"..."
"Yanyan, you're laughing at me!"
"Hahaha~ I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."
"I have a club interview tomorrow!" The two were still playfully bickering when Liang Yunfei's words interrupted them.
"Oh, really? Then I'll go check mine."
"I'll check mine too."
The two picked up their phones from the table and started checking.
"I just sent it, saying it's tomorrow morning."
"When I clicked on it, I saw mine was sent this afternoon, I didn't see it..."
"Daiyao, is yours tomorrow too?"
"Yes, but mine is in the afternoon."
"So, it's Yanyan and me in the morning, and you're alone in the afternoon."
"Mm."
"That's good too. We can finish in the morning and then go support you in the afternoon."
"Exactly!" Song Daiyao immediately felt that this arrangement was quite good.
"Then you should hurry and prepare yourselves." After listening, Qiu Xi felt that the girls should have time to prepare things like self-introductions and talent segments.
"Mm, it seems so."
"Hurry up and prepare, there's still time. I'll be your audience."
"Okay, you can also give us some suggestions."
"Agreed."
The three, who had just finished their speaking practice, became busy again.
Finally, after another hour or so, all tasks were completed, and they prepared to rest.
