After finishing his meal, Chen Ke returned to his dormitory, only to realize upon reaching the door that he had forgotten his key.

He knocked on the door; there was a lot of music and talking inside, but no one answered.

He increased the force.

The banging on the door annoyed Jin Chuan. He pulled down his headphones and yelled at Liang Xiang, who was standing near the door, "Damn it, Liang Xiang, I heard you even with my headphones on! Are you deaf?"

"Yes, I'm deaf. If that young master has the guts, why don't he just walk through the wall and come in?"

"What's wrong?" Yue Xingyu asked as he came in, drying his hair.

Jin Chuan: "It's probably Chen Ke who's back outside. He's been knocking on the door, but Liang won't open it."

Yue Xingyu slapped Jin Chuan, "If he won't drive it, can't you go and drive it for a bit?"

Jin Chuan cried out in annoyance, saying, "Can't you see I'm chatting with a girl right now? I don't have time for that."

Yue Xingyu shook his head helplessly, walked over and opened the door.

Chen Ke was about to go to the dormitory supervisor to get the key when the door opened.

"Sorry, the music was too loud and they didn't hear me. I just finished showering."

Chen Ke nodded and said, "It's okay, thank you."

Yue Xingyu had initially thought Chen Ke was going to explode, but Chen Ke acted as if nothing had happened and even thanked him.

He noticed from noon today that Chen Ke seemed different from before.

Watching Chen Ke take his clothes and head straight for the restroom, Yue Xingyu had a strange feeling.

The feeling was that if you only saw his back, he would never mistake him for Chen Ke if he were out in public!

His demeanor! Chen Ke's demeanor has completely changed!

"What are you thinking about standing here?" Liang Xiang got up to pour water, only to see Yue Xingyu standing foolishly at the door.

"Have you noticed that Chen Ke seems like a different person?"

"Ha? No matter how much he changes, he's still that penniless wretch who's putting on a brave face!"

"Liang Xiang, can you please stop being so sharp-tongued?"

"There's nothing I can do, I just can't stand him. You know, he came from such a remote mountain village, and instead of studying hard to change his fate, he's always pretending. Fine, it doesn't matter to me if he wants to pretend, but he can do stupid things like using my name to pick up girls. Can you believe how disgusting that is?"

"The key thing is that he looks down on people! I barely made it into the university, and he was always telling his classmates that he envied my good luck. After saying that, he would glance at me. You have no idea how angry I was. Anyway, I could never get along with him."

Chen Ke came out as soon as Jin Chuan finished speaking.

"Does anyone else need to use the restroom? I don't need to do the laundry anymore."

The three were surprised for a moment. Wasn't this person the type who thought he was rich and insisted on going to the laundromat?

Liang Xiang even mocked the original owner to her face, saying that the washing machine in the laundry room washes all sorts of things and has so many bacteria, while those who are truly rich hire nannies to come to the school and hand-wash things.

Liang Xiang was a genuinely wealthy man, so the original owner, blinded by vanity, naturally believed him without a doubt. It wasn't until he saw Liang Xiang casually hand-wash his dirty clothes after his shower that he realized he had been tricked.

The feud between the two deepened, and they couldn't stand each other.

Chen Ke also disliked the original owner, and he disliked him even more because he had to bear the consequences of the original owner's sins.

After a moment of surprise, Yue Xingyu replied, "Go ahead and use it. The three of us have already taken a shower."

Jin Chuan and Liang Xiang rolled their eyes and went about their own business, but in their hearts they were thinking, "Why are you pretending to be polite now? Everyone knows what you really are!"

After washing up, Chen Ke went to bed. He had been busy since he opened his eyes this morning, so much so that he fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.

The other three were completely baffled by his actions.

Liang Xiang chuckled softly, "Looks like the young master's sycophantic behavior tonight is canceled."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ke's phone rang.

"Tsk~ Speak of the devil and he appears." After saying that, Liang Xiang turned the music up a bit more.

Chen Ke answered the phone in a daze.

A woman's voice came through the phone, launching into a barrage of questions: "Chen Ke, where are you right now! What time is it and you're still not here!"

Chen Ke squinted at the call screen: A Yao

Screw Ayao! He wants to sleep!

Chen Ke hung up the phone and turned it off in one smooth motion!

At that moment, in a booth at a bar, Liu Yao stared in shock at the phone that had just been hung up.

"He hung up? He actually dared to hang up on me?!"

"Haha, really? Liu Yao, you're not good enough either. Even your backup boyfriend dared to hang up on you." The people next to her laughed.

Liu Yao was furious and gritted her teeth, saying, "You just wait, Chen Ke!"

"Then you'll be paying the bill tonight."

"Yeah, you organized this event, you're not going to renege on your promise, are you?"

······

Liu Yao was so angry that she felt dizzy and disoriented.

She could only comfort herself, thinking, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll have Chen Ke give it to her tomorrow."

Chen Ke had no idea that someone was still thinking about his pitiful thousand-odd yuan in the middle of the night. He slept soundly and when he opened his eyes, the dormitory was empty.

This subtle sense of exclusion might be suffocating to others, as even the original owner who caused this situation found it hard to bear, but it was insignificant to Chen Ke.

He slowly finished washing up, then put on his backpack and went out for breakfast.

It was still the third canteen, the exact same spot, but this time the person sitting opposite Chen Ke wasn't Lu Xiao, but Liu Yao.
