After the first day of military training ended, everyone returned to their dormitories feeling sore backs, aching legs, and cramps. However, Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu started gossiping about Xu Xiu as soon as they got back to the dormitory.
"I read Lao Xu's posts on the forum. I didn't expect you to be such a romantic."
"But such a beautiful girl, no one could help but like her. You're such a traitor, you've got a good deal."
Looking at their gloating expressions, as the saying goes, it's not only that I fear my brother's hardship, but I also fear his driving a Land Rover.
Wen Zhicai also came over, but he didn't care about Xu Xiu's past with the school beauty. What he was curious about was why Xu Xiu's tutoring ability was so strong.
At today's mobilization meeting, his high school classmate said that he wouldn't have been able to get into Hangzhou University without his help.
Helping others learn is harder than learning yourself.
He originally thought Xu Xiu was just a top student, but he didn't expect him to have such teaching ability. Now he doesn't need to worry about the problems he doesn't understand in his subjects anymore.
Xu Xiu looked at the three people surrounding him and climbed onto the bunk bed to sleep. Actually, the school had arranged a single room for Xu Xiu, but he declined.
He felt that he had nothing special about him and that living with his roommates was what made college life complete.
......
Liu Qianxue did not live on campus because her family bought her an apartment not far from the school and also arranged for a nanny to help her.
Wang Mengqi was browsing the school forum out of boredom one evening when she discovered that Xiao Ruoyan's photo had been posted there by someone at some point.
The students who left comments below all compared her to Liu Qianxue, and then they all said that she was Xu Xiu's classmate. Is there something going on between the three of them?
Wang Mengqi immediately picked up her phone and dialed Ning Bufan's number, then launched into a tirade of abuse.
Ning Bufan was completely bewildered by the scolding, and before he could respond, Wang Mengqi hung up the phone.
Just after hanging up the phone, Xu Xiu called, and all I heard was Xu Xiu say, "Xiao Fan, you're really something, you've really tricked me."
"I've cooked for you so many times for nothing. Everyone else is like brothers, supporting each other, but you're the one who keeps handing knives to others."
Ning Bufan was completely bewildered, wondering what was going on, when his roommate had already seen the forum post.
Then he handed the phone to Ning Bufan. After seeing the content of the post, Ning Bufan couldn't help but curse, "Damn, how disgusting are these people?"
Now he understood why Xu Xiu and Wang Mengqi had called to scold him. At the mobilization meeting today, he had revealed that Liu Qianxue and Xiao Ruyan were classmates of Xu Xiu.
I really want to slap myself; I've really brought trouble upon myself with my words.
However, Xu Xiu didn't really blame Ning Bufan. Everyone would find out about this sooner or later, and Wang Mengqi was just angry for a moment and forgot about it as soon as she turned her head.
After all, the four of them were partners. The tacit understanding and friendship they had built up in the months leading up to the college entrance exam were not so easily overturned.
Xiao Ruoyan was surrounded by her roommates in the dormitory, who were very curious about her relationship with Xu Xiu. Xiao Ruoyan did not hide anything and honestly told them everything from beginning to end.
Everything seemed normal to everyone else, but in the months leading up to the college entrance exam, their relationship became incomprehensible to the other girls, who felt something was off.
The military training that followed for the next two weeks was incredibly tough on everyone; they all felt like they were getting sunburned and their skin was peeling.
Girls apply sunscreen like it's free and use all sorts of face masks and skincare products at night, while guys don't seem to care. But some people seem to be blessed by God.
Xu Xiu didn't get tanned much at all after a week of military training, while his three roommates were already in terrible condition.
Xiao Ruoyan was in the same situation and didn't get much of a tan. In fact, she didn't apply any sunscreen, and she didn't even have the most basic face wash.
Washing your face with water and taking a bath with soap every day was originally the standard practice for boys, using a bar of soap to wash their whole body.
Although military training is tiring every day, Xu Xiu still makes time to meet with Xiao Ruoyan, Wang Mengqi, and Ning Bufan. Ruoxiu Fanmeng's fan base has been growing rapidly recently.
My mom has been calling a lot lately to complain that she's too busy with business and has to work overtime every day. She also said that the customer service representative in charge of the factory's account said that many fans are urging her to update her posts.
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Xiu asked his mother to pack up the latest models and send them to him. He had already brought his photography equipment with him when school started.
During this period of school opening, Liu Qianxue had already found out Xu Xiu's whereabouts and would go to see him whenever she had the chance.
The more arrogant they were back then, the more humble they are now. Xu Xiu either ignores them or simply leaves.
In short, he had one principle: he didn't want to stay anywhere Liu Qianxue was. He used to find everything about her pleasing to the eye, but now... he was like a ghost, trying to hide from her as fast as he could.
The long military training finally came to an end, and on the last day, Pang Wenjun suggested that everyone go out for a celebratory meal.
Xiao Xu raised both hands in agreement.
Wen Zhicai ignored it and did not respond.
"Where should we celebrate? Should we split the bill, or is it your treat, Pang Wenjun?"
Upon hearing Xu Xiu's words, the three of them turned to look at him.
"Of course it's...AA!"
Pang Wenjun's voice clearly lacked strength.
Xu Xiu then said, "If it's going to be split the bill, then I won't go..."
Seeing the strange looks from the others, he continued, "It's my treat today. It's been almost a month since school started, and I haven't treated everyone to a meal yet."
I'll decide on the location and let you know when it's finalized.
Xiao Xu quickly praised Xu Xiu, saying, "Mr. Xu is indeed very generous. Since Mr. Xu has extended such a warm invitation, I, Xiao, will gladly accept."
Xu Xiu looked at Xiao Xu with a strange expression, "If you don't want to go, you don't have to force yourself. I didn't say I had to invite you."
Upon hearing Xu Xiu's words, Xiao Xu immediately wilted, while Pang Wenjun stood by, laughing gleefully.
When Wen Zhicai heard that Xu Xiu was treating him to a meal, he agreed to go along.
That evening, the four of them went to the barbecue restaurant they had eaten at before, ordered a private room upstairs, and got a case of beer.
It just so happened that Xiao Ruoyan and her roommate also came here for barbecue. Originally, she didn't want to come, but Du Yuanyuan deliberately complained, saying that if she didn't come to the first gathering, did she not want to be good friends with them?
Although Xiao Ruoyan had more than 30,000 yuan in her card, she had always been frugal since childhood, and her living expenses and tuition fees for four years of university all had to be paid from this money.
This money wasn't enough for her; the tuition for four years would cost more than 40,000.
When they went out to eat, Du Yuanyuan suggested that everyone split the bill, and that they should do it this way from now on. An Yi and Ai Wenxiu agreed, saying that they also thought it would be better to split the bill for future meals.
Xiao Ruoyan wondered what she would do if she had to eat out frequently and the expenses skyrocketed.
As for Ruoxiu Fanmeng's job, Xu Xiu had already given each of them 50,000, which Xiao Ruoyan thought was a buyout price.
The four girls happened to have booked the private room next to Xu Xiu's.
Hearing several boys chatting animatedly in the next private room, Xiao Ruoyan peeked through the crack in the door and saw Xu Xiu sitting with his back to her.
While hesitating whether to go in and say hello, he received a text message on his phone. Because the volume was turned up, Xu Xiu could already hear the voice of Vx outside the door.
I stood up and opened the door to find a group of girls squatting at the entrance. The private room was quite large and could seat ten people.
Du Yuanyuan wasn't shy at all. She greeted Xu Xiu directly and then asked if everyone could sit down and eat together.
An Yi and Ai Wenxiu also looked on expectantly. Xu Xiu asked with a smile, "Is someone treating you today?"
"No, we all split the bill for our first get-together."
Du Yuanyuan responded with a smile.
Xu Xiu glanced at Xiao Ruoyan, who had her head down, and then ushered them into the private room. He then smiled and said, "This meal is on me today."
