Chapter 54
Song Yixu really wanted to ask, ‘Why do you two like each other’s hands so much?’
But he didn’t dare ask.
‘Straight’ man Song, who sells rot to the girls all year round, was a bit afraid …
When He Shen and Qiao Shao returned to 516, they found that the room was quite bright.
Although there was a power outage, Wei Jiayu’s table had a small night light on it. The orange light made the room look quite warm. It didn’t just look warm, it was warm…
Qiao Shao said, “Why don’t you open the windows?”
Without electricity, there was no air conditioning. And so, the room was a little stuffy.
Chen Su had gotten back to the room just a step ahead of him and said, “It’s already open.”
Wei Jiayu also said, “The school’s afraid that we’d jump off the building and so the windows can only be half opened.”
Qiao Shao remembered that he would occasionally open a window to ventilate the room, and indeed the windows could only be opened halfway from the top and couldn’t be fully opened.
They normally had the air-conditioning turned on. They never thought there could be times like this when there was a power outage and they really would hate these messed up windows.
At this moment, He Shen said, “Wei Jiayu, I remember you have a small fan?”
Wei Jiayu was in the middle of rummaging through his stuff. “Can’t you see I’m looking for it!”
He was felt hot to the point of vexation and hadn’t looked up. He didn’t think there was anyone else. After speaking, he realized that this voice wasn’t quite right.
As soon as he looked up …
Of, f*ck! Qiao Shao had led back an immortal by the hand!
Wei Jiayu’s tone changed immediately. “Cough, Shen Ge, cough, I’m looking for it now!”
He Shen said, “Look through that red box.”
Wei Jiayu hadn’t even thought about it. He quickly opened the box and found the small fan in the corner. He gave He Shen the same fan as though he was offering it up as a sacrifice.
This was the portable fan Wei Jiayu had bought the last time he went for a vacation to Japan. It was larger than the ordinary handheld fan, and looked like a small mirror. It’s advantage over other fans was that it could be used for a longer time than other fans when fully charged.
He Shen turned on the fan to let it blow on Qiao Shao. Qiao Shao felt the wind blowing on his face and felt a lot more comfortable, “How did you know where the fan was?”
He Shen said, “I saw it when Wei Jiayu’s housekeeper put his things away for him.”
And then you remembered that all this time? Ah, fine. You have a highly retentive memory. How amazing of you.
Qiao Shao had climbed all the way up to the fifth floor and he did feel unbearably hot. He pulled off his necktie and opened wide his collar.
He Shen directed the fan downwards, letting it blow against his neck.
Qiao Shao was perfectly satisfied. “That’s nice and cool.”
He Shen, though, was feeling a little hot.
Qiao Shao saw that he was the only one using the fan, and said, “I’m not hot anymore. You guys should use it.”
He Shen looked at Wei Jiayu, “Are you going to use it?”
Can you make this hint any clearer, Shen Ge! Wei Jiayu said, “No, I’m don’t feel hot!”
Qiao Shao wondered, “Then why were you rummaging through your things to look for the fan?”
Wei Jiayu immediately passed the buck. “I was looking for it for Chen Su.”
Qiao Shao hurriedly said, “Here, Chen Su.”
“I don’t need it,” Chen Su really didn’t feel hot. He was already used to it at home. “A calm heart keeps you cool.”
Hearing what he said, Qiao Shao felt deep veneration for Chen Su.
He Shen, on the other hand, said, “I feel hot too.”
Qiao Shao looked at him and said, “Well, then use it on yourself.”
He Shen said, “We can use it together.”
Although the fan was small, if two people were close together, and the fan was a bit farther away, it really could be used by two people.
Qiao Shao thought it made sense. “OK!”
Seeing that the two were about to be so close, they could bump heads, Wei Jiayu could only look away …
Xiao Ge, thank God, you’re not here. Otherwise, it would be like your heart getting stabbed.
No sooner than Wei Jiayu thought about it that there came the faint smell of tobacco.
To aid in air circulation, the dormitory door was left wide open, and now, the expressionless school tyrant stood underneath it with his hands in his pockets.
Wei Jiayu: “!!!”
How? Speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao appears?
He Shen also saw him, “Why are you back?”
Wei Jiayu gasped.
Lou Xiao stepped in and raised an eyebrow. “Why aren’t you home?” If he knew this guy was here, he wouldn’t have come back.
As soon as the two spoke, the smell of gunpowder was so heavy, the poorly informed Blue Hair couldn’t help shrinking back.
The content of the following dialogue is correct, but the tone and expression are all from Blue hair’s perspective —
He Shen: “There is a power outage in my house. I’ll sleep here tonight.”
Lou Xiao sneered. “There’s no electricity in the Internet cafes. I didn’t have any other place to go.”
He Shen stabbed him sharply. “Then, we can all sleep here. I’ll squeeze in with Qiao Shao.”
The school tyrant wouldn’t yield. “It’s so hot today. How would you sleep if you squeeze in together?”
He Shen countered this move. “The blackout probably won’t be for long. By the time we sleep, the power will be back.”
Lou Xiao was not to be outdone. “Then you should go home once the power get back.” It would be best if you both went together so that you won’t act all lovey-dovey in the dorm.
He Shen said, “Why don’t you go back to the internet cafe?”
Lou Xiao: “I’m too lazy to run back and forth.”
He Shen: “Same here.”
Wei Jiayu couldn’t stand to listen anymore. They’ll end up fighting if this goes on!
This little poor ghost can keep so calm in the face of all this! He really isn’t just some ordinary person.
As expected of the person chosen by the king of East High!
Wei Jiayu summoned the courage to interject. “I think … We can do it this way!”
He Shen and Lou Xiao both turned to look at him.
Wei Jiayu, felt a little panicked at being watched so closely. But for world peace, he persevered. “I can give up my bed.”
Lou Xiao looked at him: “Then, where would you sleep?”
Wei Jiayu said conflicted, “I’ll crowd in with Chen Su!”
There! Isn’t this good enough! Each of you three will get your own bed! It would be very fair!
Blue hair wanted to pat himself on the back. This spirit of sacrificing his lowly self for the greater good was truly admirable!
Who would have thought that it would be Chen Su who would cut him down in one second flat. “No.”
Wei Jiayu turned to stare at him: “What?”
Chen Su said, “You’re not getting into my bed. I won’t share with you.”
This statement almost made Wei Jiayu pass out from anger. Who wants to go to bed with you?
This poor ghost couldn’t even read the situation!
“I won’t let you suffer any losses.” Wei Jiayu said, “I’ll compensate you! Three hundred for a night!”
Chen Su: “…”
Tyrant President Wei went online. “Is it not enough? Then, six hundred.”
Chen Su looked at him like he was an idiot.
Unfortunately, the lighting wasn’t good and Wei Jiayu didn’t see it as he continued to throw away money. “One thousand!”
To one side, Qiao Shao wanted to help Chen Su broker the deal. Who knew that Chen Su would say, “No.”
Wei Jiayu blew his top. “Two thousand!”
Chen Su calmly said, “I’m sorry, I only sell my skills, not my body.”
Wei Jiayu: “……………………”
Qiao Shao laughed out loud completely without restraint. He was even rocking with laughter.
He Shen also raised his lips slightly.
Lou Xiao looked at Wei Jiayu. “What has gotten into you?”
Blue Hair felt so wronged, he could almost cry!
Lou Xiao patted his shoulder and said, “Okay, clear your head. If you have to use force to break a melon off the vine, it won’t taste sweet.”
Wei Jiayu: “………”
Fortunately, someone came to lend a helping hand and fished Blue Hair out from his abyss of suffering.
“Chen Su, Qiao Shao, let’s play truth or dare …” Song Yixu’s words came before he himself did. Once he saw this roomful of people, he suddenly shut up. “Oh, Shen Ge’s also here, haha. ”
Their visitors were Song Yixu and Jie Kai. Their dorm room was telling ghost stories and Song Yixu was scared to the point of almost wetting himself. And so, he dragged along Jie Kai to take refuge.
They would never have gone to the fifth floor before. But now that they had a good relationship with Chen Su and Qiao Shao, they dared to climb up.
Besides, most of the people in the international class hadn’t returned to the dorm. So, Song Yixu thought that there would only be Chen Su and Qiao Shao in their big room. He felt sorry for them and so he decided to look for them to play.
Who knew that …
There would be so many people!
And what’s more……
Song Yixu saw the “evil and ferocious” school tyrant, Lou Xiao!”
Jie Kai pulled Poop-faced song to a stop and said, “We went the wrong way! Excuse us!”
Saying so, they were about to run.
Wei Jiayu reacted very quickly. He pulled in Song Yixu and said, “Didn’t you come to find Chen Su and Qiao Shao?”
What ‘run’? Quickly help Laozi calm down this heavy atmosphere!
Song Yixu had also heard rumors about this rich second generation. It was said that he was very particular about social hierarchy. He regarded all students who had allowances of less than 10,000 yuan as poor ghosts. He would wantonly beat them down and maliciously poke fun at them.
Song Yixu said cautiously, “We thought they were all alone here and wanted to keep them company. Since there are so many of you here then we won’t bother you, hahaha.”
Chen Su, Qiao Shao, it’s not that you brothers don’t care about you, but we really can’t afford to provoke these bigshots from the international class!
Wei Jiayu absolutely couldn’t let them go!
With outsiders here, Xiao Ge and Shen Ge would probably show restraint. And who knows, maybe by the time the power comes back on, things would have calmed down.
Wei Jiayu thought about it like this and said, “There’s not a lot of us here, so you should stay and play.”
Song Yixu and Jie Kai: No, there really is a lot of you here! In particular, there are two people here who are the equal of ten people. This room is already jam-packed, alright!
Wei Jiayu added, “You guys said you wanted to play truth or dare? Okay, we’ll all play together. The more the merrier.”
Song Yixu forced out a laugh. Jie Kai laughed along with him.
Wei Jiayu knew who the lynchpin of this entire operation was. He directly asked Qiao Shao, “Would you like to play truth or dare?”
So long as Qiao Shao nodded, this thing will happen!
Qiao Shao blinked. “Truth or dare?” He’s heard of it, but never played.
Wei Jiayu said, “It’s very fun. It’s still early so let’s play together to kill time.”
Qiao Shao was very interested. He looked to He Shen, “Are you playing?”
He Shen said, “If you play, I’ll play.”
Qiao Shao said, “Okay! Let’s play!”
Wei Jiayu looked at Lou Xiao with eyes filled with distress, “Xiao Ge?”
Lou Xiao was actually indifferent. He liked things to be lively, but everyone stayed far away from him. The atmosphere wouldn’t turn lively even if he wanted it to.
Lou Xiao: “OK.”
To play truth or dare, seven people would use the method where they drew cards.
Song Yixu came prepared. He made use of his flash cards for English class to make the game pieces.
He explained the rules.
There were a total of seven cards, one of which was the ace and the other was a joker.
The one who got the joker would have to either tell answer a question truthfully or do a dare.
If truth was chosen, the person who drew the ace would ask the question; if it was a dare, the person who drew the ace would also be the one to issue the dare.
The remaining five were empty cards, and they would serve as onlookers for the fun.
Song Yixu said, “The rules are very simple, you can understand it in just one round.”
The seven of them got together and sat in a circle.
He Shen was next to Qiao Shao and Song Yixu was to Qiao Shao’s right. After Song Yixu was Jie Kai. Opposite was Lou Xiao, Chen Su and Wei Jiayu.
In the first round, Song Yixu, luckily gave himself the joker card.
Jie Kai got the ace. He laughed and asked Song Yixu, “Which will you choose?”
Song Yixu: “A dare!”
Xie Kai had been prepared: “Come on, shout in front of everyone, ‘I am Poop-faced Song!'”
Song Yixu: “…”
The other five people looked at him. Faced with the school tyrant, rich second generation and the god of learning, Song Yixu didn’t dare go back on his word. He could only throw Jie Kai a vicious look, saying, “Lao Jie, you just wait!”
He then closed his eyes and shouted, “Hello everyone, I am Poop-faced Song.”
Qiao Shao was enjoying himself immensely.
That was so funny! This could make them laugh to death!
At the beginning of the second round, Song Yixu began to mutter to himself, “Ace, Ace, Ace, I want to dig a pit for Bie Sun Jie!”
However, he only drew an empty card.
Fortunately, Jie Kai’s card was also empty.
Qiao Shao was looking forward to getting the ace, but a single glance revealed that it was empty.
Then He Shen and Lou Xiao’s came out, both were empty.
The last two left were Chen Su and Wei Jiayu.
The corner of Wei Jiayu’s mouth twitched. Turning over his joker card, he said arrogantly, “I choose dare!”
Truth was out of the question. He was hiding so many secrets in his stomach, how could he dare to choose truth!
Chen Su put down his trump card, looked at Wei Jiayu, and released the task. “Later, you are not allowed to climb into my bed.”
Wei Jiayu: “………”
Song Yixu and Jie Kai: “?????”
Qiao Shao had just stopped laughing when he was provoked into uncontrollable laughter. “Chen Su, you’re still holding a grudge about that. What a messed up dare, hahaha!”
He was laughing so much, he almost fell off the bed. He Shen gently blocked his path, and he half-fell against him instead.
Wei Jiayu was shamed into anger, “Who the f*ck would want to climb into your bed!”
Song Yixu and Jie Kai turned to look at him, face completely horrified: Why does this statement feel so ambiguous!!
Chen Su replied, “Well, if you’re not, then that’s good.”
Wei Jiayu was angered half to death. He wanted to lift the table and throw it when he caught sight of the frosty mannered Lou Xiao beside him. Suddenly …
“No!” Great plans can be ruined by just a touch of impatience. Wei Jiayu said, “The dare must be an on the spot task. Your task doesn’t count!”
He looked at Song Yixu and Jie Kai for confirmation, “Right?”
Song Yixu was still muddled. “Yes, yes …” Whatever you say goes.
Chen Su raised his eyebrow and said, “This is the only thing I can think of making you do.”
Wei Jiayu: “You’re not making me ‘do’ something. You’re making me ‘not do’ something.”
Chen Su, “Oh, then the only thing I want to make you do is to not do this thing.”
Wei Jiayu: “………”
Wei Jiayu, who had been taken for a bit of a spin, insisted, “That’s the rule, you have to change your dare!”
Song Yixu turned to confer quietly with Jie Kai. “Isn’t Chen Su’s task good enough? He obviously wants to let off Wei Jiayu.”
Jie Kai whispered back to him: “Maybe Wei Jiayu doesn’t want to be let off.”
Song Yixu: “………”
Now that the rules were so, Chen Su perfunctorily gave a task. “Sing a song for us.”
Wei Jiayu scoffed.
What surprised Qiao Shao was that Wei Jiayu could sing very well. He sang a song casually, his voice was crisp and sweet, and his melody was spot on.
When the song ended, Qiao Shao was surprised. “You sing really well.”
Wei Jiayu cleared his throat and said uncomfortably, “It’s passable.”
Qiao Shao still wanted to praise him but Wei Jiayu himself was embarrassed. “Keep going! Chen Su, hurry up and deal the cards!”
Whoever drew the ace card was the one who would deal for the next round.
Chen Su earnestly carried out his task, and he dealt the cards one by one meticulously. Qiao Shao got his own card and when he took a look —
The huge joker character came into view.
Great, he’d drawn the joker card!
