"Kang Wei, you're just a piece of foxtail grass."
"You!"
Kang Wei's eyes were bloodshot with anger.
But he couldn't utter a single word in retort.
"Pfft."
A sound came from the corner, not loud, but extremely insulting.
"Jiang Yi!"
Kang Wei shot him a dagger-like glare.
His fierce expression seemed like he was about to devour someone.

The tender, puppy-like boy scurried into the restroom.
The smile on his lips never faded.
What kind of person is he?
Putting on a different face when you're present versus when you're not.
He actually took the perfunctory praise from his parents as genuine.
Idiot!

At the cafe.
As the gathering was winding down, Wen Tingxue walked in from outside.
She handed a large bag of snacks and drinks to Song You.
"Thank you so much for your help today, Senior Song. Just a small token of my appreciation, please don't mind."
She had actually intended to pay the bill.
But the waiter informed her that Song You had already settled it.
Not wanting to owe him any more favors, she went to the supermarket and bought some snacks that boys might like.
Song You, sensing her intentions, said, "Then I won't be polite."
As he took the bag, he casually asked, "Imperial Capital University starts the day after tomorrow, right?"
"Yes."
"I have a car, I can give you all a ride then."
"Okay."
Wen Tingxue hadn't expected him to suggest this, and answered without thinking.

By the time she realized it, it was too late to change her mind.
Song You smiled, "Then I'll see you the day after tomorrow."
He left with the bag.
Wen Tingxue: "..."
She felt like she had walked into a trap.
"Yiyi, the day after tomorrow, isn't Boss Yu also coming? What are you up to?"
Xu Kexin leaned in to Wen Tingxue's ear, watching the show.
Wen Tingxue: "..."
"He's so busy, he definitely won't remember," Wen Tingxue reassured herself.
Xu Kexin chuckled, "Alright, you better pray he's busy, otherwise, someone's jealousy might flare up again."
Wen Tingxue: "..."
Great.
The fact that Yu Wenli was a master of jealousy couldn't be hidden any longer.
Also, God bless, may Senior Song be so busy he can't even touch the ground that day.

The art academy's cafeteria was indeed impressive. Not only was the food first-rate, but the prices were also incredibly cheap.
Ten yuan for a meal with meat and vegetables, and it looked good too.
The three of them ate their fill and returned to the dorm.
Jiao Yutong had already finished her hygiene routine and was in bed, reading under her study lamp.

Lu Youran asked curiously, "Didn't you go eat?"
Jiao Yutong flipped a page and said coolly, "I ordered takeout."
"Oh."
Lu Youran nodded.
"Takeout isn't as good as dining in. How about you join us at the North Canteen tomorrow?
"It's a bit far, but the taste is good. Let me tell you..."
She went to Jiao Yutong's bedside and chattered on.
Jiao Yutong continued reading, listening patiently.
She would occasionally respond.
Wen Tingxue and Xu Kexin exchanged glances.
ID - 563743675
They truly envied Lu Youran's personality.
Based on their conversation style, it would probably only extend to 'Oh.'
And then nothing more.
When Meng Xiyao returned, Wen Tingxue and Xu Kexin had already showered and were in bed.
They weren't asleep yet, both were texting their boyfriends.
The only sounds in the dorm were Lu Youran's voice and Jiao Yutong's occasional replies.
"Oh my god – you actually have the nerve to chat?!"
Meng Xiyao leaned against the closed door, looking at Lu Youran with shock and disbelief.
"?"
Lu Youran turned around, confused, "Why wouldn't I have the nerve to chat?"
"Who did you offend, don't you know?"
"...You mean Fu Ran?"
After much thought, he was the only possibility.
Meng Xiyao rolled her eyes, "Oh my god, you know it and you can still sit still?! Aren't you going to apologize?"
"Hey," Lu Youran said, unoffended, "What's with your expression? I didn't offend you!"
"You call this not offending me?!"
Meng Xiyao widened her eyes, "He's the student council president! With one word from him, we'll lose a lot of benefits!
"You're a hero, a good person, you don't care about those quotas and benefits, but we do!"
"..."
Lu Youran blinked, feeling guilty, "He... shouldn't be that petty, right?"
"Whether he's petty or not, I don't know. But I've heard from senior students.
"The girls who dated him in their freshman year, after they broke up, all the girls in their dorms were expelled!"
Meng Xiyao said, both angry and indignant, as she threw her bag down and sat.
Wen Tingxue and Xu Kexin immediately sat up.
"Is this true?"
Meng Xiyao looked at Wen Tingxue as she spoke, her tone softening slightly.
"It should be true, many senior students from various departments say so."
"Damn, is he that petty!"
Lu Youran's temper flared up again.
"Don't worry, I'll tell him when I see him tomorrow.
"If you have a problem, come at me, I definitely won't implicate you."
...
Meng Xiyao's temper was quick to come and go.
After showering, she had already forgotten her argument with Lu Youran and asked in a sweet voice:
"Ranran, can I use your hand cream? I think the scent is really nice."
Lu Youran wasn't one to hold grudges.
She nodded upon hearing this, "Sure, it's on the table, the purple tube, help yourself."
"Okay."
Meng Xiyao said as she applied it, "This scent is really addictive. Where did you buy it?"
"Right? My boyfriend also says it smells good. I bought it online. Do you want the link? I'll send it to you."

Lu Youran sat up.
Meng Xiyao got into bed, applying body lotion as she said,
"The link is too much trouble, just buy it for me directly."
"Sure, is it this scent?"
"Yes."
"It's thirty-seven yuan and eighty cents, you can give me thirty-seven."
Lu Youran showed Meng Xiyao the successful payment screen.
They were in adjacent beds, so they could see clearly by just reaching out.
"Okay, I'll transfer it after I finish applying."
Meng Xiyao glanced at it and then asked, "You just said your boyfriend, you have a boyfriend?"
ID - 563743675
"Yes, we're on a video call right now." Lu Youran smiled sweetly.
Meng Xiyao made a soft "ah" sound, feigning innocence.
"No way, did he hear everything I said?"
This tone...
Wen Tingxue immediately recalled her tone when facing Song You.
"Xing Jiahe has time now, I'm going out to meet him."
Xu Kexin suddenly stood up.
Meng Xiyao immediately looked over, "You have a boyfriend too?"
"Mhm," Xu Kexin nodded perfunctorily.
Meng Xiyao asked with a coquettish tone, "Where does your boyfriend go to school?

"You're at Imperial Capital University, he should be pretty good too, right?"
Xu Kexin was busy getting dressed to go out and said casually, "He doesn't go to school."
"Doesn't go to school? Is he much older than you?"
"Same age."
"Ah~"
Meng Xiyao drew out the word, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.
Isn't that a good-for-nothing?
"Which university is your boyfriend at?" Meng Xiyao continued to talk to Lu Youran.
"A University."
"That's quite impressive. When can we have you all over for a meal?"
First publication >: Tower Read Novel
Meng Xiyao intentionally called out in a sweet voice:
"According to the rules, boyfriends have to treat us to meals~"
Lu Youran's boyfriend indeed heard this, and chuckled, "I will, I'll treat you tomorrow."
A University wasn't far from the art academy.
Just two streets away.
Meng Xiyao cheered, "Yay! We can have a big meal tomorrow!"
Yu Wenli also heard this.
"Boyfriends have to treat?"
He raised his eyelids to look at her, his deep, captivating peach blossom eyes holding a hint of a smile.
"Yiyi, when do you want me to come over and treat?"

His voice, striking her ears, was like aged wine, mellow and captivating.
The little girl stared at the incredibly handsome person on the screen and typed angrily –
[Don't want to talk to you.]
[I'm taking Xinxin downstairs.]
Perhaps she was being petty.
She somehow felt that Meng Xiyao's attitude towards boys and girls was different.
It was strange.
-
After seeing Xu Kexin off in a taxi, Wen Tingxue returned to the dorm.
Meng Xiyao was still chatting with Lu Youran.
ID - 563743675
More accurately, she was chatting with Lu Youran's boyfriend.
Jiao Yutong had already put on her earplugs and gone to sleep, but it was unclear if she was actually asleep.
Regardless, Wen Tingxue couldn't sleep.
She was worried about Xu Kexin.
Imperial Capital was so big, and she was unfamiliar with the place. She should have gone with her at that moment.
The video call hadn't ended, and Yu Wenli was comforting her from the other side.
Wen Tingxue frowned, unable to be soothed.
Only when Xu Kexin sent a message saying she was safe did she finally relax.
"Good girl, can you go to sleep peacefully now?"
Yu Wenli had just finished his work and was on his way back to his dorm.

His voice, already pleasant, was even more alluring in the night.
The dorm fell silent for a moment.
Wen Tingxue, only then realizing, had accidentally dislodged her earphone wire when she turned over.
That last sentence – it had been broadcasted out loud!!!
Awkward.
"Um..."
Wen Tingxue felt she should say something.
However, the moment she opened her mouth, Meng Xiyao suddenly asked in a sweet, doll-like voice:
"Who is that? Your boyfriend?"
"Mhm."
Originally from Tower Read Novel~
Wen Tingxue quickly admitted it.
The next second, an extremely charming low laugh echoed through the dorm.
Meng Xiyao felt her body go soft.
Wen Tingxue quickly lowered the volume.
No, she should put in her earphones.
And then glare at the certain demon who could be alluring even with his voice.
A look of determination flashed in Meng Xiyao's eyes.
However, her voice was sweet and soft.
"Your boyfriend's voice is so nice~ When can we all go out for a meal?"
There might not be many college scenes (possibly, not certain).
