Chapter 5 - Decorations

Ying Xuan's side of the room, on the other hand, was completely opposite. She had no posters, Xuan had only put up a framed handmade potrait of the cover of a very famous Chinese drama. The drama was released around sixteen years ago and it was actually their mother in the cover. On her bed stand was a picture of their family. A handsome Chinese man and an European beauty were holding identical twins with ash skins in their hands. It was a happy picture.

On her study table, were her brushes, pencils, paints and other stuff along with her sketch books. She also had not bought books yet like Xi.

The two sisters were almost done when three girls entered their room. They exclaimed upon seeing the room, to which Ying Xuan turned around, "Oh me gosh!!! Your room is so pretty. I think this is the best room in all of the hostel. I mean, look at the size of this room."

Ying Xuan was perplexed as she looked about. It was not really much, her room back home was bigger than this one. Not to mention it was her private room, and she had to share this one with Ying Xi.

Ying Xi immediately responded, "Yeah, I know. And we kind of deserve it."

The girls saw that they were both twins. And again they went, exclaiming at the top of their voice, "You guys are twins!!!! That is soooo cool!!! And matching outfits? You both look so pretty!!!"

Ying Xi flipped her hair and said, "Of course I do. And it has got nothing to do with what I'm wearing, it's natural."

Ying Xuan rolled her eyes and thought, "Yeah, five pounds of make-up natural."

The girl in the middle introduced herself and the other two. She said, "I'm Ting Mumu, she's Qiao Yishei and this is Mo Feng'er."

Qiao Yishei waved her hand in acknowledgement and Mo Feng'er gave a soft smile.

Ying Xi also introduced herself, "I'm Ying Xi. And that is Ying Xuan." She added after seeing the girls looking at Xuan curiously.

Ying Xuan smiled as a gesture of acknowledgement.

The girls immediately began to check out the room. All the things if Xi and Xuan were top-notch, so their eyes began to brighten and they spoke about how they loved this brand and how they had the same thing.

Ying Xuan could instantly tell that these girls noticed that she and her sister were rich and were trying to suck up to them.

So, Xuan did not show much enthusiasm when the girls admired her side of the room, but she also did not stop them, as it would seem rude.

After they were done, Mumu, Yishei and Feng'er offered to show their rooms. Ying Xi immediately agreed and went with them. Mo Feng'er turned to see Ying Xuan had not moved, so she motioned for her to join them.

Ying Xuan scratched her head and went. Though she was anti-social, the one called Feng'er had specifically gestured to her.

The five girls first went to see Mo Feng'er's room, as it was just across the hall. As Ying Xuan entered, her eyes were blinded by the bright pink decorations in half of the room.
