Chapter 115 Roommate's Outdoors

Li Zhenzhen's exams went smoothly. Her grades were already the best among Wen Le and the other four, and she studied a relevant major. After graduation, she also spent several months working in the family business, earning high scores in both theory and practical tests. Finally, she went to the Imperial Capital Star for an interview, and she was basically done.

Wen Le's exam performance, however, was unexpected. He did very well on the theory test, which only accounted for half a third of the total score. The rest was entirely based on practical application. This was a real test of practical application. Fortunately, Xu Dongdong was quite practical, and after a long internship at Yunhua with professional teachers providing hands-on instruction, he performed well on the final exam.

After coming out, Xu Dongdong looked relieved: "What a close call! I thought I would fail this exam. I didn't expect it to be based on practical operation. This way, even if I got all the theory wrong, I can still pass."

However, Xu Dongdong's comments were only after the fact. The test results came out at that time. If he had not done well, he would not be so relaxed.

Next, students who passed the written exam went to the Imperial Capital Star for an interview. Since Lili and Xu Dongdong were taking the exam at different locations, they couldn't go together this time. Li Zhenzhen was on the Abandoned Star, which was not only far from the Imperial Capital Star but also had inconvenient transportation, so she left on the same day the exam ended.

Xu Dongdong arrived a day later than Li Zhenzhen, and before leaving, he didn't forget to treat Yunhua's teachers and colleagues to a meal. However, when the bill finally came, it was the teacher who paid. Xu Dongdong originally insisted on giving him the money, but the teacher stopped him: "It's worth the meal anyway. You are my student, so I should treat you to a farewell meal before you leave. We'll meet in the capital someday, and it won't be too late to treat you back then."

He gave Xu Dongdong a meaningful look as he spoke, feeling deeply: This student's future interpersonal experiences will be completely different. Unlike the other interns, who only saw the small things in front of them and nearly fought over a chance to become a full-time employee, this kid actually got directly accepted to the Imperial Capital Star. As long as he's not too bad, headquarters will be eager to hire him after graduation. Not only could he become a full-time employee, but even giving him a studio to build mechas on his own is possible.

"Study hard when you get to the Imperial Capital Star. Don't waste such great resources."

Xu Dongdong nodded quickly: "I will."

…

Xu Dongdong passed the first round of exams, and when he was leaving, his father, Xiong, came to see him off, a rare sight that flattered Fatty. Although Xiong's father's words were still unpleasant to hear, this kind of farewell was always reserved for his sister Xiong, and it was the first time it had happened to him. If he wasn't afraid of ruining the atmosphere, he would have wanted to ask Xiong's father if he had really been transported, and how much kindness he had topped up to give him such a treat.

He even complained about it to his friends again: "Honestly, it's only in the last few months that I've felt like I was born into a family. Before that, I felt like I was picked up from a garbage dump."

All my friends laughed at this and said that it was better to have the baby as my biological child for the past few months than to always treat him as an adopted child. At least I was a biological child for once.

Xu Dongdong: “…”

A bunch of bad friends, he told these people that this was simply a mistake!

…

The day Li Zhenzhen and Xu Dongdong arrived at the Imperial Capital Planet, Wen Le and Li Li were on holiday, so they asked their instructor for a note to go out and pick them up. When Li Zhenzhen and Xu Dongdong emerged and saw the two, they almost didn't recognize them. Xu Dongdong even blurted out, "Hey, buddy, you're in trouble! How come you've become so dark in just a few months? Did you go to the Mining Planet to dig coal?" Then they looked at Li Li standing next to them, her face looking even more horrible. This girl wasn't much whiter than Wen Le; they were truly a pair of troubled sisters.

When these two people stood together, they immediately attracted attention with their dark skin which was several shades darker than those around them. Fortunately, they were both wearing casual clothes, otherwise they would have become a beautiful "scenery" at the dock.

Wen Le snorted his head: "Do you think my brother is particularly handsome and manly now?"

Xu Dongdong mercilessly pointed out: "Come on, a little brat who hasn't even grown all his hair yet dares to call himself a man. Have you ever seen what a real man looks like?"

"You talk as if your hair has grown out completely." Wen Le glanced at him, "Have you ever seen a real man?" He looked the fat man up and down with a meaningful look in his eyes.

Passengers who heard them immediately glanced over with ambiguous glances. One elderly man even couldn't help shaking his head. "What a degenerate world! Kids these days are all being corrupted. Back then, when they were this age, they didn't understand anything like this. They've been corrupted by all that crap on the internet."

Two boys were trying to imitate others in their electric scooters, but were immediately knocked down by Lily with a single punch each. "That's enough, you two! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Boys are creatures that you really can't show a good face to. If they are not punished for three days, they will go crazy. They even go out and learn to drive fast from others. They are simply looking for death.

After being beaten up by Lily, Wen Le and Xu Dongdong immediately became obedient and followed the two little fairies out of the dock in an orderly manner.

Leaving the dock, Li Zhenzhen was immediately struck by the bustling crowds. She couldn't help but mutter, "There are so many people here!" The suspension lanes were jammed with hovercars, a dark mass stretching to the horizon. The sidewalks were also bustling with people, so many they were practically shoulder-to-shoulder. I'd heard before that Imperial Capital was densely populated, but I hadn't expected it to be this dense.

Fortunately, she didn't come here during her trip, otherwise she would have been crushed to death. Although the Imperial Star is known as a shopping paradise and is the capital, she really doesn't want to stay in such a densely populated place if she can help it. But it's too late to regret it now. Everyone in her family knows that she has been admitted to the Imperial Capital Business School and will be studying here. If she suddenly fails to tell, it will be really embarrassing.

Besides, her friends were all here, and she was reluctant to leave. So, there were more people, and she would get used to it after staying for a while.

Wen Le and Lili only had one day off, so they couldn't do much, so they took Li Zhenzhen and Xu Dongdong to their upcoming school to familiarize themselves with the environment and prepare for the interview. After all, the interview was crucial to their chances of acceptance, and being late was a big no-no. Getting familiar with the campus early meant they wouldn't be too rushed on the day of the interview, and they could also rest and recuperate in a hotel near the school.

Because the Business School and the Mecha College were not in the same district, they made two special trips, and by the time they finished visiting both schools, the day was almost used up.

So the four of them had a quick dinner at a small street restaurant and then parted ways. Lily and Wen Le hurried back to school, nearly missing their schedule due to traffic. By the time they rushed back to the dorm, it was already 7:50, with ten minutes left before class.

This is the only downside, it's not flexible at all, and students are required to attend classes in the dorms, otherwise they'll be considered absent. If this rule didn't exist, they wouldn't have to rush to the dorms every day just to be on time for class.

As soon as he got back to the dormitory, Wen Le didn't even have time to wipe the sweat off his face before he took a cup and filled it with water. He drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he feel alive again: "I'm dying of thirst!"

"What did you eat tonight that makes you so thirsty?" Du Yu came over and asked curiously, "Hey, Wen Xiaole, have your two classmates arrived yet? Did you pick them up?"

He'd heard there was a girl coming this time, rumored to be applying to business school. Just hearing the name of the school told him she must be a top student. And if she was pretty, she'd definitely be a beautiful, wealthy woman. He could ask Wen Le to introduce them. Wouldn't that give them the advantage of being close to home? Maybe they could find a way out of their single life this year and get married next year?

Although marriage is the grave of love, without this grave, there will be no place to be buried after death, how sad!

After logging into the classroom, Haiyang also came over and said, "I heard there's a beautiful girl here this time. Wen Xiaole, you must introduce her to me. I'm counting on you to find my single life."

Wen Le was speechless. "Who told you there was a beautiful woman coming over this time?" While Li Zhenzhen was undoubtedly a lovely little fairy in his eyes, he couldn't honestly call her a beauty. Especially in front of his roommates, he didn't dare lie. What if they felt he'd cheated on them and took their anger out on him, refusing to wake him up in the mornings anymore?

But he couldn't show Li Zhenzhen's photo to his roommate without her consent, so he could only vaguely say, "Anyway, according to the public's aesthetic standards, she can't be called a beauty, but she is indeed a cute little princess with a good personality and is very considerate."

It’s just that his appearance is… ahem, a bit unrestrained.

"Hey, she's so nice, but she's still a beauty. You're being so disrespectful, Wen Xiaole." Du Yu bumped Wen Le with his shoulder and said with an ambiguous smile, "Ask the girl out someday so I can meet her. If it works out, I'll wash your socks and brush your shoes for a month. How about that?"

"Tsk, you're not the only one who can wash socks, I can do it too." Haiyang pushed Du Yu aside and came closer to Wen Le and said, "Wen Xiaole, I, your brother Haiyang, am leaving my lifelong happiness in your hands~"

Even the usually steady Qi Hao looked at Wen Le expectantly. Wen Le was in a dilemma and had no choice but to say, "How about this, I'll text her after class to ask her. If she agrees, I'll show you her photos first. If you think she's a good match, you can make an appointment to meet. If she's not your ideal type, forget about the meeting."

He couldn't bear to see the little girl being picked over like carrots by these animals. Rather than being embarrassed when they meet in the future, it would be better to make it clear now: "Also, if she doesn't want to see you, then I can't do anything about it. Don't force me."

I have to say something unpleasant upfront, social gatherings are about mutual consent, and he won't sell out his friends just to please his roommate.
