When they finished eating, they noticed that there were significantly fewer people on the streets. Han Li and Qi Ran didn't delay and returned to the hotel directly. After all, if you are new to life, you are not familiar with the place, so it is still safe.

But even when they arrived at the hotel, the two of them didn't feel sleepy because of the time difference. Qi Ran hugged his notebook and began to get busy with some things, while he was lying on the bed watching TV.

Finally, when it was almost dawn, the two finally fell asleep.

It's just that they didn't sleep for long, and at nine o'clock in the morning, the two were woken up by the alarm clock set by Qi Ran.

Although Han Li still wants to fall asleep again, who will let there be something to do today. And Qi Ran also had to get jet lag, so he could only climb up with difficulty.

After washing up and having breakfast at the restaurant on the second floor of the hotel, the two of them went to Stanford University.

Unlike domestic universities, foreign university campuses are more open and can be said to be more like a park with lush vegetation. It's the same at Stanford, Han Li didn't even see the campus courtyard wall here, but he felt that he had entered a community with better greenery.

After entering the campus, Qi Ran immediately went to report and go through various procedures. And Han Li naturally followed, but many times he sat in the shade to rest like many old American parents who sent their children here.

Fortunately, the reporting procedures were not complicated, and soon Qi Ran walked up to Han Li with a few lists and a smile on his face: "Let's go." ”

"Are you alright?" Han Li handed the water to Qi Ran, and then asked with a smile.

"Alright, now go to the dormitory to check in." Qi Ran said with a smile. It can be seen that her interest is very high, probably because she has come to a new environment.

Through Qi Ran's explanation, Han Li can also be regarded as understanding some of the accommodation systems of Laomei University, or the regulations.

Generally speaking, the school gives students a lot of freedom of choice in terms of accommodation, which can be summarized in three ways.

The first is to live on campus as in China, that is, to live in student apartments on campus. Of course, unlike domestic schools, the on-campus student apartments in Laomei are in very good condition. Generally speaking, it is better than off-campus, and of course the cost is much higher than off-campus accommodation.

In addition to the good internal conditions of the dormitory, the whole apartment also has a very complete infrastructure for students to use. Such as laundry room, lounge, recreation room, piano room and other indoor and outdoor public facilities.

The second way is actually what many students in China are eager for, that is, renting a house off campus. There are no rules in this school, and it is generally chosen by the students themselves. You can choose to live in a house by yourself, or you can choose to share a house with like-minded classmates.

Moreover, compared with on-campus student apartments, this way of renting a house is more flexible and cheaper, so it is also the first choice of many American college students.

As for the third type, it is called OME STAY, which is to go to a foreigner's house to borrow, in fact, it is also to find a local guardian family for yourself. This method is generally used by middle school students, and college students do not seem to want to live in such a family unless necessary.

After all, they, like domestic college students, are eager to have their own independent space.

For Qi Ran, money is not an issue. Therefore, the environment and safety are the focus of consideration for her, as well as Han Li, and even Han's father and Han's mother. In fact, an important task assigned by Han Li's father and mother to Han's father this time is to help Qi Ran check in.

In fact, as early as more than a month ago, Qi Ran had already applied for an on-campus apartment on the Internet. Because on-campus housing resources are limited, Stanford University requires graduate and doctoral students to live off-campus.

But there are exceptions, that is, Qi Ran, these international students, in order to give them an environment to adapt to, so Stanford University specially allows them to apply for on-campus apartments.

Stanford's management is relatively loose, and the faculties are relatively independent. For example, Qi Ran's business school has its own teaching buildings and student apartments.

And relatively speaking, business school is one of the richest schools in the entire Stanford University. This is also thanks to the donations of many distinguished alumni, so the conditions of the business school are naturally better, and the student apartments are also like this.

Although the business school provides single, double and quadruple rooms for graduate students to choose flexibly according to their own situation, Qi Ran chose a quadruple room with relatively average conditions.

In her words, it's not about money, the main reason why I chose a four-person room is to meet a few more friends and integrate into it as soon as possible.

And this also made Qi's father and mother a little worried, worried about whether Qi Ran and these roommates from a country could get along.

In fact, before this, Qi Ran already knew the basic information of the other three roommates. And this is also the place where the college is humane, allowing students to freely choose like-minded roommates to live together, so as to avoid differences in culture, customs and even life.

Generally speaking, Lao Mei's own classmates live together, and international students live together. However, there are exceptions, such as international students who are willing to live with American students and want to get to know and have in-depth exchanges, and there are also local students from the United States who want to strengthen exchanges with students from other countries.

This was the case with the dormitory she applied for, with two homegrown roommates, one from Texas and the other from Montana, both white. The other one, like Qi Ran, is also an international student from Thailand.

Han Li met this Thai girl in Qi Ran's dormitory, as well as the old beautiful girl from Texas. As for the girl from Montana, she hasn't reported it yet, so Han Li didn't see it.

But just these two girls, Han Li thinks it's not bad, at least they are more cheerful. The Thai girl's name is Pu Zhana, Shen Chi is slightly chubby and short, less than 1.6 meters, her skin is brown with Southeast Asian characteristics, and her teeth are very white.

Seeing Qi Ran coming, she was very enthusiastic, and quickly talked to Qi Ran with that very distinctive pronunciation, and soon gave Qi Ran a small gift with the characteristics of her hometown.

And the white Texas girl, named Jessie, belongs to the typical Western woman. is relatively tall, about the same as Han Li, and has a good figure, so it can be seen that he should usually have fitness.

Compared to Puzana's liveliness, Jessie seemed a little slow to heat, but he soon began to talk.

The two girls were very curious about Han Li's arrival, and when they learned that he was Qi Ran's boyfriend, the two girls called it too romantic. In their words, there is nothing more romantic than a boyfriend sending his girlfriend to a foreign country to study.

At this time, Han Li naturally stood up, first made a simple self-introduction, and then invited the two girls to eat together very gentlemanly, and very tactfully expressed his hope that he would take more care of Qi Ran in his future life.

And the two girls were also very cheerful, and quickly agreed to Han Li's invitation.
