Chapter 1: Are you sick?

  Li Qiang congratulated Tang Chong after finishing, then turned his gaze to everyone and said with a smile: "You should already know that the first month of freshmen entering university is military training month. This is a task, no one can escape. Moreover, if there are no special circumstances, my personal suggestion is that I hope you can persevere - whether you are male or female. If you can persevere, this month may bring you great gains."

  "So, try not to ask for sick leave to avoid military training. Moreover, my approval is very strict and without sufficient reason, I will not approve it. Military training starts tomorrow, the instructors from the troops have already arrived. Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, gather at the playground. You must wear your military training uniform and don't be late."

  "Alright. Now, let's have ten boys follow me to the logistics management department to get our military uniforms back." Li Qiang took a look and said: "Let the boys in the last row follow me. You're sitting so far away, my nearsighted eyes can't see clearly, and on the way, we can also get close to each other."

  The meeting ended with the roar of laughter from everyone and the wailing of the boys in the last row.

  Tang Chong and Li Yu walked ahead, while Hua Wuxie panted and chased after them.

  "How can you run so fast?" said Hua Ming.

  "I thought you'd bring a rabbit along." Tang Chong said with a smile.

  "Hmph. I've already found out that most of the freshmen in our department are guys, and the few girls aren't particularly pretty either - not worth wasting my energy on." Hua Wuyi said shamelessly.

  "Really?" Tang Chong thought for a moment and realized that he hadn't even noticed if there were any pretty girls in the class.

  "Heh heh, I definitely won't get this wrong." Hua Wuque said with a pleased expression. "I just checked one by one earlier, and considering we're classmates, the best one can only score 75 points ----- the beauty is still in the College of Literature and the Department of Business Administration. Our department and the Department of Architecture are both 'difficult households'."

  "You have a rabbit in your hand, so you don't need to worry about girlfriend issues," said Tang Chong. "It's more that Li Yu and I are in danger."

  "Hey, we're in this together, can't I just let you die?!" Hua Wuque patted Tang Zhong's shoulder and said: "Worst comes to worst, my rabbit will lend you some time."

  "Never mind. I'm afraid I won't be able to resist chopping two carrots and stewing it." Tang Zhong hastily refused. Letting him take the rabbit out was harder for him than admitting he was 'Tang Xin'.

  "That's enough." Hua Wuyi hastily shut her mouth. "My lower body's happiness all depends on this rabbit. If you stew it, I'll have to raise another one... Ah, do you know what Liang Tao is up to?"

  "I don't know." Tang Zhong shook his head.

  "I knew it." Hua Wu said with a pleased smile. "Do you think I really wanted to go out drinking with this LV display rack? It's just that I wanted to help you get a few words out of him. No wonder this kid is so rich, his dad is the mayor of Huaihua City - he doesn't even need to spend his own money on clothes, they're all gifts from others. Do you know how much we spent on lunch today?"

  He stretched out a big hand and said, "Xiao Wucheng. A bottle of Maotai costs over 2,000 yuan. Although I knew it was fake after the first sip, but the money spent is real."

  "He's quite generous." Tang Chong said with a smile.

  "That's also for a reason." Hua Wu said in a low voice. "Although he didn't say it so clearly, but I know, he wants to isolate you. If I'm not wrong, he must have invited Li Yu to dinner too?"

  "Please go ahead." Li Yu said in a low voice. "I'm full. I didn't go."

  "That's it. There are only four of us in the dormitory. He has won me and Li Yu over, leaving you isolated. Three people don't get along with you, how can one person live on?"

  "Your performance must have disappointed him greatly." Tang Zhong said.

  "Hey, it's no wonder this kid is so stupid. College isn't high school - back in high school, you could just treat your classmates to a meal of 'Kaifeng dishes' and they'd be bought off. Now that we're in college, he's still playing the same tricks, isn't he asking for trouble? He'll only end up isolating himself." Huā Wú Quē said disdainfully.

  "Kaifeng dish?"

  "KFC, you don't know?" Hua Wuque said with disdain. "However, since the principal took you in as a student today, I reckon he'll be more honest in front of you from now on. Can't help but say, you're really lucky. Didn't you see how many people's eyes turned red with envy? That's admiration! I'm even envious myself. The wine at noon doesn't count, you have to treat us to dinner tonight - consider it our first roommate gathering in 307."

  "No problem." Tang Zhong replied readily. "However, I don't have money to treat you guys to Maotai."

  "Hey, we're all poor students, who cares about that? If the conversation doesn't go well, even delicacies are hard to swallow. But if the chat goes well, beer with peanuts can be delicious too-----I saw a campus restaurant at the school gate when I went out today. Let's just set it at the campus restaurant," said Hua Wuyi.

  "Alright, then let's go to the school cafeteria." Tang nodded heavily.

  When I returned to the dormitory, Liang Tao had already come back earlier.

  What's even more surprising is that he actually took the initiative to greet Tang Chong, smiling and saying: "Tang Chong, congratulations. As a student of the president, you'll have a bright future from now on ----- in the future, we classmates and roommates will still have to rely on you for support."

  "It's just a bit of good luck," said Tang Chong. Indeed, it was because of this reason.

  He came to Nanda alone, with no one accompanying him. So, his mind was all on the local conditions and customs around him. When he walked to the school motto stone at the school gate, he stood there and recited it twice before being able to answer President Jiao Yuheng's question.

  If he also had parents accompanying him at that time, he would definitely only be concerned about talking to the people around him and wouldn't have the mind to pay attention to these things.

  What surprised Tang Chong even more was that the admission letter also had a school motto. How could no one remember it? Were they all staring at the front of the notice, looking at the school's image ambassador wearing a white shirt with a full chest?

  "Luck is also a kind of ability." Liang Tao said with flattery. "Today is a great day. Firstly, because we met among the tens of thousands of students at Nan Da. And we have the fate to live in the same dormitory and will be roommates for four years. Secondly, Tang Chong was named by the dean as his disciple - no matter what, we must celebrate. Tonight I'll treat you guys, let's go out and celebrate!"

  "Haha, you're too late," Hua Wuque said with a smile. "Just now on the way back, Tang Chong and I were discussing going to the campus restaurant for dinner."

  "Alright, let's go to the school cafeteria." Liang Tao said. "Tonight, we four brothers will have a good drink together. By the way, I heard that the older brothers from other dorms have all come out. Who is the oldest in our dorm?"

  Everyone reported their age, and Hua Ming was the oldest among the four because he had been held back in elementary school and middle school. Tang Chong started school relatively late, so he ranked second and became the "old second" of the dormitory. The third was Liang Tao, and Li Yu was the youngest, surprisingly not yet eighteen years old.

  The first day of school is busy and leisurely.

  There is nothing specific to do, all the hustle and bustle is just a waste of time.

  After a while, Li Qiang brought the students to deliver the boy's military uniform.

  Tang Zhong's head was very high, so he could only wear large military uniforms. However, his body was too thin, and the oversized clothes hung loosely on him, making him look like a sack on an electric pole.

  Hua Ming's head is high and his body is large, the oversized military uniform is still filled to the brim. Just like a muscle man. Obviously, those who designed the military uniforms did not expect that there would be such a large student among the freshmen.

  Li Yu was another extreme of Tang Chong. He chose the smallest clothes, but wearing them still looked like a child wearing an adult's clothes. On the other hand, Liang Tao's choice of a medium-sized military uniform fit him perfectly, giving off a sense of elegance and grandeur.

  Several men in the dormitory kept admiring themselves in front of a broken mirror left behind by their predecessor, until it was time for dinner.

  There were already many boys and girls wearing military training uniforms walking around downstairs, so Tang Chong and the others naturally wouldn't wear their uniforms out at this time. Instead, they changed into their own clothes and headed to the campus cafeteria.

  When they arrived at the school cafeteria, they discovered a serious problem.

  Today is the first day of school, and there are quite a few people who come to eat "dormitory exchange dinner" with this idea. When they arrived, it was already crowded.

  "Let's go eat at that hotel over there," said Liang Tao frowning. "There are too many people here."

  He wasn't used to eating at such a small restaurant. But since Tang Chong and the others were coming, in order to ease their relationship with him, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and come over. Unexpectedly, business on this side was booming.

  "Wait a minute." Tang Chong said with a smile. "There's a table over there that needs to be settled."

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, a couple of students who looked like they were dating finished their meal and were about to pay the bill.

  "I'll go grab a seat first." Hua Wuyi swung her large buttocks and ran over.

  After the man finished paying the bill, Hua Wuyi plopped down in a chair and then turned around to greet Tang Chong and the others.

  Unfortunately, his line of sight was blocked by a wall of people.

  "Hey, classmate, how about letting us have this table?" The tall and imposing wall of people smiled slyly at Hua Wuque.

  "No way." Huā Wú Quē very domineeringly refused.

  "But this table was occupied by us first." The smile on the face of the human wall deepened even more. He didn't expect that there would actually be someone who dared to refuse their request.

  "Now the chair is under my butt." Hua Wu Xie said. He wasn't someone who would back down after being intimidated. "Did you sit here first? If you sat here first, why is the chair under my butt instead of yours?"

  "Classmate, you're quite arrogant."

  "Each other."

  "Really?"

  He kicked one foot against the leg of the chair, and the plastic chair leg could not withstand this force and broke.

  A crisp sound accompanied by a muffled one, Hua Wuque's body heavily crashed onto the ground.
