Chapter 101 The Harder You Try, the More Unfortunate You Are

The past few days have been quite peaceful. The student union is organizing the freshman convention and the freshmen are preparing to start military training.

At the beginning of his junior year, Shen Zhi started working on a finance project with an old professor. The old professor's project was applied for by the state. As an undergraduate student, Shen Zhi was not exposed to too much core work. Usually, he was just collecting and organizing data, writing reviews and checking papers.

Shen Zhi didn't have to achieve any achievements as an undergraduate student. The key point was that he wanted to establish a good relationship with the old professor in advance to facilitate his future career.

This doesn't take much time. Another important competition is the innovation and entrepreneurship competition held by a small scientific team led by Shen Zhi, who is also taking information and computing science as a minor.

Therefore, Shen Zhi spent more time in the dormitory except for classes, and there was no other reason. Apart from anything else, Chu Shi, who didn't like to talk, was really a good roommate.

At least when Shen Zhi was busy all day long, the dormitory was quiet as if Chu Shi was not there, as if the dormitory was Shen Zhi's exclusive office.

"You're back?" Shen Zhi rubbed his sore eyes, and tears soon welled up in an attempt to relieve his tired eyes. His amber eyes were covered with a thin red background and were filled with mist.

Against the light, it appears a little fragile and soft.

Not to mention Shen Zhi's warm smile and soft voice made people think of his young wife waiting for her husband to come home.

Chu Shi paused as he was about to enter the dormitory, trying to stop his wild and divergent thoughts.

Even though he didn't have solid evidence, Shen Zhi was definitely not as simple as he appeared.

Seeing that Chu Shi didn't say anything, Shen Zhi thought that he didn't want to pay attention to him, so Shen Zhi didn't get annoyed.

Shen Zhi stood up from the chair slowly. The chair legs rubbed against the floor, making a harsh and sharp sound that gave people goosebumps.

Shen Zhi walked towards Chu Shi, the smile on his face becoming brighter and kinder. As they walked, Chu Shi could almost smell the cool, sweet fragrance from Shen Zhi.

It's funny to say that the president of the student union, who is famous for his gentleness and humility, has a freezing fragrance. It should be said that he is a hypocrite and even his body betrays him.

"I'm sorry, Chu Shi." Shen Zhi looked guilty and slowly spread out his palm. On it was a meal card. "When I went to eat today, I took the wrong meal card and accidentally dropped it into the water."

A lot of Tian Chushi's things, big and small, were damaged, and without exception, they were all caused by Shen Zhigan.

Every time Shen Zhi apologizes, he is very sincere and it is hard to blame him, like this time.

"I will compensate you at the original price," Shen Zhicheng said sincerely.

The corners of Shen Zhi's eyes drooped innocently, and Chu Shi could see the red in Shen Zhi's eyes and the moisture covering his eyeballs by slightly lowering his head.

It really looks like the look of someone who is extremely regretful for having done something wrong.

Chu Shi looked away, reached out to take his meal card from Shen Zhi's hand, and refused, "No thanks."

Regardless of whether Shen Zhi did it on purpose or not, Chu Shi didn't want to get entangled with Shen Zhi.

Chu Shi passed by, packed his toiletries and went to the bathroom, leaving Shen Zhi alone.

Shen Zhi clenched his empty palms, and his smile faded away completely.

When he came back from the infirmary that day, he saw a gift box on the table in the dormitory.

Inside was a watch that was exactly the same as the one that had broken before, except that the one that was sent was real, while his was a fake.

Not only that, there was also a note saying, "Baby, I didn't lose the receipt and the appraisal certificate for this watch. I knew you would need them."

Someone was watching him and knew his secret. Shen Zhi felt a chill behind him and his body became so stiff that he couldn't move.

He has to find out who is hiding in the dark, otherwise his pretended good life will be cruelly destroyed.

The first person Shen Zhi suspected was Chu Shi. Only the two of them had the key to the dormitory, so there was basically no possibility for anyone else to come in.

After testing, Shen Zhi did not find any clues about Chu Shi. If he had to say, Chu Shi's temper was surprisingly good.

If someone keeps doing small things, Shen Zhi has to give him a taste of his own medicine. However, Chu Shi, who suffered losses, always refuses Shen Zhi's compensation measures.

It seemed as if he didn't want to have anything to do with Shen Zhi.

During this period, Shen Zhi received almost no harassing text messages.

Shen Zhi, who had always been successful, suddenly fell into confusion.

Could it be Chu Shi? In the moonlight at night, Shen Zhi tilted his head and stared at Chu Shi, who was sleeping peacefully across from him.

He and Chu Shi have lived in the same dormitory for two years. If it was Chu Shi, why did he only send those dark and maggot-like text messages recently?

Otherwise, who can enter and leave the dormitory freely?

Will the students from Yuchuan, or more precisely, the freshmen of Yuchuan?

After all, Shen Zhi had lived a very stable life in college for the previous two years, and he first received text messages during the summer vacation.

Later, it became more and more excessive. In addition to explicit words, they later sent him photos of him. Now it has developed to sending him gifts, and they are authentic.

Shen Zhi could not have imagined that in his ordinary life, there would be someone who would stare at him like a pervert.

Maybe there really is someone...

Shen Zhi shuddered at the thought, and then firmly denied himself, it was impossible, absolutely impossible.

Shen Zhi subconsciously wrapped his body tightly in the quilt, and his curled eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a flying butterfly.

Shen Zhi suddenly felt himself being captured by a cold gaze. He looked up subconsciously. Chu Shi, who seemed to have woken up at some point, was staring at him steadily, without a trace of emotion.

"What's wrong?" Shen Zhi was startled by Chu Shi's sudden awakening. To be more precise, he was startled by Chu Shi's insightful eyes. In front of those eyes, no one could calmly hide their shameful little secrets.

Especially Shen Zhi.

Shen Zhi immediately recovered and looked at Chu Shi calmly, then smiled apologetically, "I was also awakened by the cold, so I wanted to raise the temperature."

It was like explaining to Chu Shi why he was looking at him, because the air conditioner remote control was with Chu Shi.

Chu Shi looked at Shen Zhi for a while, not knowing what he was thinking. Perhaps he was confirming the truthfulness of Shen Zhi's words.

After a while, he reached for the air conditioner remote and turned the temperature up two degrees.

"Chu Shi, thank you." The dormitory curtains were not very light-blocking, and a layer of hazy and light moonlight was able to shine in through the thick cloth.

Shen Zhi had a gentle and beautiful face to begin with, and with the bright silver light coming in through the window, his exposed profile was as white as jade and extremely beautiful.

The voice of thanks was particularly gentle in the night, like honey, sticky and sweet. The amber eyes with soft light suddenly bumped into people's eyes and penetrated into people's hearts.

If Shen Zhihe uses this face to deceive people, no one will fail to be fooled.

Even though the other party knew that he was not sincere, he was still willing to be deceived so that Shen Zhi could soften his tone and coax him.

Chu Shi frowned and looked at Shen Zhi showing weakness, then he turned up the temperature and turned his back to Shen Zhi.

These days, he sees Shen Zhi almost every time he returns to the dormitory. It seems that this man has rarely left the dormitory, and no one knows what he is doing. Chu Shi doesn't care what Shen Zhi does, as long as it doesn't involve him.

Shen Zhi glanced at the 28-degree air conditioning, pulled the quilt to cover his lower abdomen, and closed his eyes.

The next day, Chu Shi had disappeared. Shen Zhi did not stay in the dormitory today, but followed the student union to deliver water to the freshmen who were undergoing military training.

The Finance Department is located in the main campus. There are not too many majors in the main campus, so the Student Union pulled five large carts, which is enough to give each person a bottle.

When Shen Zhi left, it was not yet time for a break in the military training.

It was noon and the sun was scorching hot. The freshmen were standing under the scorching sun, sweating profusely. Their skin looked like it had been pickled in soy sauce, and each one was darker than the other.

It's only been three days, but it's clear that this military training is quite intense.

Compared with them, Song Hengyang is particularly outstanding and different.

It is as white as the cream ice cream in the refrigerator, and feels cool and refreshing. Just looking at it makes this hot summer seem less unbearable.

Not only that, the place where Song Hengyang stood in military posture was under the shade of a tree. Although he was tired, he felt much more comfortable than others.

The onlookers looked at Song Hengyang and thought that this little schoolmate was handsome and cold, while the freshmen in the military training felt their teeth itching with hatred.

There's nothing we can do about it. Who told Song Hengyang to be allergic to ultraviolet rays?

Originally, he didn't need to do the military training, but he stood at attention and became a typical example for the instructor to demonstrate.

"Hoo——" A loud whistle sounded through the sky. Following the sound, the freshmen who were standing in military posture were finally able to move their numb limbs and stretch their muscles.

"Young students, the student union has prepared iced drinks today. Come and get some if you need them," said Shen Zhi, holding a loudspeaker. His clear voice, like a stream of water, spread throughout the playground.

The crowd gradually became agitated.

The thirsty freshmen swarmed over and surrounded the few people Shen Zhi had brought with him to deliver water.

"Senior, you are so handsome. I vote for you as the school hunk this year." The little school girl in camouflage uniform, drinking an iced drink with starry eyes, expressed her position to Shen Zhi, "You will definitely crush the first place guy named Yang."

She can't remember people's names, but she really drinks the water.

Shen Zhi had a gentle smile on his face and silently gave her another bottle. "Drink slowly. If it's not enough, there's more."

Ruan Zhu also came today and joked with the little school girl, "We have been the president for two years and don't care about these empty titles. Why are you bribing our president with votes?"

The little school girl smiled embarrassedly.

Shen Zhiyu glanced at Song Hengyang and Fang Hao sitting under the shade of a tree, picked up two bottles of drinks and walked over.

He actually cares a lot, he wants all titles, even the useless title of school hunk.

"Why don't you take it?" Shen Zhi handed the drinks in his hand to them, "Is it because there are too many people and you can't squeeze in?"

Fang Hao's face turned even redder after being exposed to the sun, and he took the drink from Shen Zhichen with great trepidation.

What qualifications does he have to have the senior personally bring him water? It's too embarrassing.

"No, drinking iced drinks after high-intensity exercise can easily cause pharyngitis and stomach spasms," Song Hengyang's eyes were clear and pure, and he calmly explained simple medical knowledge to Shen Zhi.

Fang Hao, who had just poured ice water into his mouth, immediately spat out the water in his mouth when he heard this. He turned his head and saw Song Hengyang's profile, which was so cold and pale that it was shining.

Somehow, Fang Hao sensed from Song Hengyang's cold and indifferent gaze that he was obediently waiting for praise.

"Hengyang, you know all this, that's amazing!" Fang Hao immediately started to flatter, looking sincere and convinced.

Song Hengyang opened his long, dark eyelashes, revealing his pure black pupils as if immersed in a cold spring, icy and chilling. He then raised his head slightly and looked at Shen Zhi who was standing in front of him.

Shen Zhi didn't understand what was going on and thought it was a provocation.

The natural warmth in the amber eyes disappeared, the curve of the corners of the mouth dropped a little, and he agreed: "Junior brother is indeed amazing."

"It's just common sense." When Song Hengyang said these four short words, it felt like it should be that way.
