‘Congratulations, Host, you have successfully bound the Green Tea Upgrade System. Wishing you smooth completion of tasks and a pleasant life.’
In a state of confusion, Li Ziyan was awakened b...
Adolescent boys consume a lot of energy, especially when they live on campus. Although the food in the high school cafeteria is considered to be conscientious and the dishes are rich, it is still on campus after all, and the meals are basically full meals, without this kind of food to satisfy your cravings.
The other boys in the dormitory looked at each other with uncomfortable expressions, and their eyes looked at Li Ziyan with a different meaning.
Because of the change of hairstyle, Li Ziyan's slightly longer hair has been cut short, revealing his delicate face. His whole spirit has also improved, adding a bit of sunshine. In addition, his eyes are clear and bright, which makes people feel good about him.
Originally, Li Ziyan was not the type to be annoying. If it weren't for his sexual orientation, the relationship in their dormitory would be pretty good, or at least acceptable.
But after what happened this afternoon, they just couldn't bring themselves to do that.
As if he could see their confusion and struggle, Li Ziyan chuckled and placed the fried chicken on the shared table in the dormitory. "I had already eaten before I came back. I brought this especially for you. We're all roommates, so you're welcome."
After saying that, he opened the gate, put everything in place, and went into the dormitory bathroom with his toiletries.
The boys glanced at each other, then subconsciously looked at Han Shuo, "Brother Shuo, do you want to eat?"
"Eat whatever you want. I didn't buy it." Han Shuo glanced at them and said nothing more. He changed into his pajamas and sat on his bed.
"...It would be a waste if I didn't eat it. I'm already hungry anyway."
"Too!"
“Come, come, come!”
"Wow, this smells so good!" There were six people in their dormitory. Apart from Han Shuo and Li Ziyan, the remaining four boys gathered around the table, eating fried chicken from the bag.
Li Ziyan leaned against the bathroom door. When he heard their voices, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. He turned on the faucet to cover up his whispers.
"Host, Han Shuo didn't eat the fried chicken you bought, so his favorability towards you probably won't improve much."
"I didn't buy the fried chicken for him in the first place," Li Ziyan splashed water on his face and wiped it gently, then smiled. "Han Shuo has a cold personality. You think buying him something can improve his favorability? You're really looking down on him."
"Did you buy this fried chicken for someone else? But didn't they just bully you this morning?"
"That's why I have to do this even more. I'm only being bullied because my sexual orientation has been exposed. And how many of them truly hate homosexuals? Maybe they themselves don't even know that they're bullying me because they think I'm different. Or maybe there's someone secretly in the closet among them," Li Ziyan sneered and wiped his face. "If I resist now, I won't necessarily gain their respect. Instead, they'll hate me even more. If I remain silent and let them bully me, they might get tired of it and ignore me, or they might even become even more aggressive. I don't want either of these situations. Instead of just sitting there and waiting for death, I might as well take the initiative."
007 didn't make any more sounds, but there were new measurements and data in the system.
When Li Ziyan came out of the bathroom, the boys had almost finished eating the fried chicken. Li Ziyan smiled at them, said nothing, and quietly collected the garbage on the table and put it at the door. After washing his hands, he quietly went to bed.
The boys were stunned by his attitude, but they couldn't say anything more because they were grateful for the favor. They ran to the bathroom, brushed their teeth, turned off the lights and went to bed.
The next morning, Li Ziyan was awakened by the vibrating alarm clock and sat up from the bed early. Han Shuo, who was in the bed next to him, also woke up with him. The two of them slept with their feet facing each other, and when they sat up, they were facing each other.
Li Ziyan rubbed his eyes gently. His clothes had been slightly tilted from moving around in his sleep, revealing half of his shoulder and his fair, slender neck and collarbone. He looked across at Han Shuo, who had a calm expression on his face, smiled slightly, and said softly, "Good morning."
His voice was already pleasant, full of youthfulness, clear and unctuous. Now, lowering his voice, with a hint of fresh-out-of-bed hoarseness, it possessed a unique charm. His delicate features and slightly bewildered eyes were particularly captivating. Han Shuo's Adam's apple rolled noticeably, his ears tingling. He nodded, saying nothing more, and got out of bed.
Li Ziyan sat on the bed, watching Han Shuo go into the bathroom. His eyes slowly regained clarity, a smile still on his face...
Quite cute.
After they finished washing up, they came out of the bathroom. The other four people in the dormitory were still asleep. Li Ziyan packed up his things and left with his schoolbag, leaving his alarm clock in the dormitory before leaving.
He and Han Shuo arrived at the classroom one after the other and sat in their seats. The distance between them was quite large, Li Ziyan sat in the last row near the corner, while Han Shuo sat in the last row near the door.
The two were obviously roommates, but they didn't talk much. Li Ziyan was not in a hurry. Although his mission was to conquer Han Shuo, everything would eventually turn into the opposite. More haste makes waste. He had to take it slow and grasp the right measure to win in the end.
When the study bell rang, Li Ziyan's other roommates came in late from the door. Perhaps because of the fried chicken last night, they did not take the initiative to provoke Li Ziyan today.
They had just finished their midterm exams. Li Ziyan was studying very seriously. His grades were among the best in the class, and many people would ask him questions.
After that incident, fewer boys came to ask him questions, but the girls remained the same, and their attitude towards him was even more gentle and enthusiastic.
Fortunately, Li Ziyan is also a top student, and happens to be a science student, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself.
"Okay, students, calm down and go back to your seats." Wang Zhaoxia walked to the podium, holding a stack of papers. When the students saw this, they all had sad faces and nervous expressions. "The midterm exam results are out, and I'm handing them out to everyone now."
"The questions this time were quite difficult, and most of the students' scores dropped. However, Han Shuo and Li Ziyan from our class still performed very well."
Upon hearing this, Li Ziyan lowered his head and took a look at the transcript. Sure enough, his and Han Shuo's names were at the top, one above and one below, taking the top two spots. Their school rankings were also excellent, one first and the other fifth.
Li Ziyan had to admire the original owner for this. Compared to him, the original owner was much stronger. After such an incident happened, he was greatly affected emotionally and mentally. He could not concentrate on studying and taking exams. His grades dropped sharply. He did not recover by the time of the college entrance examination. He repeated a year before adjusting his mentality and being admitted to his ideal university.
Wang Zhaoxia spoke a few more words, analyzing the students' loss of points, then changed the subject, "As everyone knows, midterms are over. We will be holding a school sports meet next week, and I hope everyone will sign up."
