The clangour of Xia Mengrui's early morning routine woke up the rest of the dormitory. Xia Lihua and Bo Yanyan both looked visibly annoyed as they were jolted awake.
With a face full of resentment, Xia Lihua sat up on her bunk bed and couldn't hold back her frustration. "Xia Mengrui, why are you making so much noise so early in the morning? Are you trying to get on our nerves? You were never a lark."
Bo Yanyan, still feeling groggy, sulked at the unexpected disruption to her sleep. "Yeah, can't you be a little considerate of others?"
Ignoring their discontent, Xia Mengrui continued brushing her hair and then applied mascara on her eyelashes, seemingly unfazed by their complaints.
Tang Susu, who had also been awakened by the noise, took Xia Mengrui's side and defended her.
