Chapter 31 A true man lives between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for lo
The next day was Friday.
The last working day before National Day, there were no classes in the morning.
The three of them, 4, 5, and 6, slept soundly until 11 o'clock, then leisurely made their way to the cafeteria and found a table near the door to sit down.
Another ten minutes or so later, Lin Xiang, who had just returned from training, walked into the cafeteria. While sending messages to ask where they were, he frowned and looked around blankly.
He didn't even glance at what was nearby...
Zhao Hao couldn't stand it any longer, so he got up and pulled him to a seat.
"Hey, isn't this Old Lin? Why aren't you with Senior Shi today?"
Xu Yue, with his legs crossed, smiled broadly when he saw that he was unusually alone.
"Because my senior has class today."
Lin Xiang gave him a strange look. "We're not always together anyway; we're both busy with our own things."
"Hahaha, it seems your skill level is still lacking. Back in my day..."
Xu Yue laughed heartily, feeling as if he had won back a round.
However, just as he was about to launch into a long-winded speech, he saw Lin Xiang silently pull out a box of truffle chocolates, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"Thank you, godfather!"
"My godfather is so generous!"
Zhao Hao and Jin Xin immediately accepted the reward respectfully.
"Do you usually buy such expensive snacks?"
Xu Yue examined the chocolate Lin Xiang handed him, noticing its silky smooth surface and the rich aroma of truffles, and couldn't help but gasp.
This isn't cocoa butter substitute; it's a genuine high-end product!
"I didn't buy it."
Lin Xiang said softly, "My senior gave it to me this morning."
"?"
Xu Yue's smile vanished.
"Didn't you say you had class today?"
"She gave me the snacks before going to class. Sometimes I also bring her fruit before class."
Lin Xiang scratched his head and looked at his social mentor, Zhao Hao.
"A healthy social relationship with give and take should be like this... right?"
"Yes, yes."
Zhao Hao nodded, suppressing a laugh.
Although he was a little envious, his godfather had treated him to such high-end chocolates, so what else could he say?
"Teacher Xu, do you need any further guidance?"
Jin Xin silently added this iconic scene to his inspiration library, then looked at Xu Yue with some anticipation.
"I……"
Xu Yue's expression was twisted beyond recognition. After gritting his teeth, he let out a wolf howl like his tail had been stepped on, then turned his grief and anger into a hunger, and threw Lin Xiang's chocolate into his mouth.
You despicable bastard!
I'll bite you to death, waaaaah!
As a result of moving too fast, he choked hard and bent over coughing like a shrimp.
Lin Xiang looked at his roommate with a worried expression.
Zhao and Jin burst out laughing, slapping the table.
It's a bit unfair, but Xu Yue is just too entertaining. He doesn't even need to try to be funny; just sitting there is enough to make people laugh.
"Senior?"
At this moment, Lin Xiang noticed two familiar, pretty figures entering from outside and waved to them.
Shi Yuqi wore a preppy dark green blazer today, with a neatly pressed pure white pointed-collar shirt underneath, paired with a pleated plaid midi skirt with excellent drape, exuding an elegant and understated charm.
The woman next to her, with big wavy hair, a round face, and small eyes, is Jian Yueying. She's wearing black wide-leg pants with a white cropped tank top, going for a sexy, mature look.
"Hey junior!"
Shi Yuqi smiled and waved to Lin Xiang.
Unlike a polite smile, this is a smile that appears only when one is genuinely happy.
Jian Yueying, on the other hand, pounced on Lin Xiang like a wolf seeing a sheep, her eyes sparkling.
"Great, Brother Lin Xiang! So you've been here all along! I was just about to ask Qiqi to take me to you! Could you do me a small favor?"
"What small favor?"
"Your college's curriculum requires you to join two clubs for social practice, right? How about we choose 'Good Old Age Home' for the second club? We need a badminton expert like you to join us!"
After hearing Jian Yueying's explanation, Lin Xiang understood the reason.
The Good Old Man's Home is responsible for managing the school cats, which involves many tasks. In addition to taking good care of the registered school cats, it also needs to screen and investigate the new unregistered cat population.
We should give warmth to the elderly.
The bad old man wants them to fly.
Of course, only a few cats have such a dignified and majestic appearance as an old cat; most cats can be transformed.
However, their long-term homelessness has made them sensitive and cautious, and they often avoid contact with humans. But leaving them alone is not an option; at least they need to be vaccinated, otherwise it would be troublesome if unfortunate students were to get hurt.
This is definitely a physically demanding job.
However, because the club is related to cats, most of the members of Haomao House are girls, and those who are efficient at their work are extremely rare.
With the cat-catching operation imminent, Jian Yueying couldn't even muster a few usable people; she was practically in a panic.
"Please, Brother Lin Xiang!"
Jian Yueying clenched her fists.
"For the glory of the Haomao family, for the future of Xiangda the cat, for your senior sister Shi's... um!"
Shi Yuqi covered Jian Yueying's mouth.
"Junior, I also think you should consider it~"
But as her best friend who had shared a bed with her, she still gave Jian Yueying a helping hand.
"Our school attaches great importance to the school cat issue. If you join this club, it will be easier to get high marks, and the work content is also clear and straightforward, without too many tedious formalities and tasks."
"Okay, then I'll choose the 'Good Old Age House' club as my second club."
Seeing that Shi Yuqi had already said so, and that his three roommates were also giving him meaningful glances, Lin Xiang nodded.
"Wuhu! Thank you, junior!"
Jian Yueying clenched her fist and cheered.
"Yay!"
Jin Xin and Xu Yue also high-fived in celebration.
Lin Xiang's gang has been dealt with, so even in the worst-case scenario, the remaining three can now get out of trouble!
Only Zhao Hao blinked thoughtfully.
"Okay, then I won't disturb your meal! I still need to meet with a few other students from the School of Social Studies; they also want to join. But since you're already here, I estimate I can only give them three spots."
As Jian Yueying spoke, she picked up her phone and looked around.
"The classmate who contacted me said they were also at the entrance? Are there any other classmates of yours around here?"
"Senior."
Zhao Hao finally couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible that the classmate you contacted is me?"
"Oh, you guys?"
Jian Yueying glanced at her phone, then at her juniors, and after a moment, a suppressed laugh appeared on her lips.
"Hahaha! What a coincidence, I didn't expect they'd all be on our side!"
"That's quite a coincidence."
Zhao Hao smiled and shrugged.
He was the only one in 456 who didn't know Jian Yueying, but he was in charge of the entire process of finding the second club, so no one noticed beforehand...
It sounds a bit outrageous, but it's quite normal in dorm 456; that's how male moms in dorms are.
"What else is there to say? They're all Qiqi's junior brothers, we have to lend a hand."
Jian Yueying waved her hand dismissively, "Then you'll all work for me!"
"Thank you for taking me in, senior!"
"You're so generous, senior!"
Zhao and Jin nodded their thanks.
"So there's no need for an interview or anything like that?"
Xu Yue finally managed to swallow the chocolate stuck in his throat and looked up blankly.
Why would you need to interview someone you know?
Jian Yueying waved her hand with a smile, "Brother Lin Xiang is worth ten of them, his roommates must be just as good~"
"..."
Xu Yue silently lowered his head.
Old Lin was accepted into a prestigious club early, and I was also taken in as a result.
Why can't I feel happy when it's supposed to be double the joy?
He suddenly felt that the chocolate in his throat hadn't been completely cleared; it was lingering there, a little cloyingly sweet and slightly choking...
"Oh right, there's a cat-catching mission tomorrow afternoon."
Jian Yueying forwarded the WeChat post to the four of them, saying, "Although the club hasn't officially started recruiting yet, if you want to join, I can help you calculate your social practice time in advance!"
Then she looked at Lin Xiang eagerly, her eyes filled with a mixture of expectation and pleading.
It's clearly an implied message: Please, expert! You absolutely have to come!
"Then I'll go."
Lin Xiang nodded.
Although he has training tomorrow afternoon, since it's a club matter, changing the schedule is fine. Grandpa Wang's schedule itself allows for some flexibility.
After all, his training ground was the club's warehouse.
"I'm going too!"
As soon as Lin Xiang finished speaking, Xu Yue also raised his claws.
Why is it that only Lao Lin is surrounded by female seniors every day?
A true man lives between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long!
He wants to prove with his actions that he is no ordinary person, being the top of the ten most handsome boys at Fengman No. 1 Middle School!
