Horror Chapter
The first day of military training ended amidst the collective wails of the students.
Once back in the dormitory, Jiang Liu and Lin Lang collapsed onto their beds, utterly exhausted from the intense workout. Lin Lang's condition was even worse; he lay on the bed groaning, which made Jiang Liu's head throb.
"Lin, can you not be so dramatic? Your moaning is giving me a headache!"
"I can't help it! I haven't done such strenuous exercise in ages. I feel completely drained; if I don't let out a few sounds, I'll feel even worse!" Lin Lang complained.
"Alright, alright. I give up. Moan all you want!" Jiang Liu said, too tired to continue the conversation. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep.
Before he could drift off, the door swung open, and a familiar voice rang out: "Hey, you two are being a bit overdramatic! You sound like you're dying!"
"Not everyone is like you, Wang Fei. You're so muscular that I'm surprised your clothes don't rip," Lin Lang retorted weakly, though a hint of jealousy seeped through his tone.
The muscular guy talking to Lin Lang was named Wang Fei, who shared the same dormitory with them. He used to be overweight and faced ridicule because of it. Determined to change, he committed to eight years of rigorous training and transformed into a muscular figure adored by many girls.
Lin Lang had always wanted a physique like Wang Fei's but was one of those people who just couldn't build muscle no matter how hard he tried. Eventually, he had to give up on that dream. So every time he saw Wang Fei's impressive build, jealousy bubbled within him, feeling like it marred his own self-image.
"I'm going to take a shower; I'm drenched in sweat," Wang Fei said as he stripped off his military uniform. He turned to the two lying on their beds and added, "Are we going out for skewers tonight? I've invited a few girls from our class!"
"What! There are girls?" Upon hearing this, Lin Lang sprang back to life, eagerly asking Wang Fei if any of them were pretty.
"Of course! And they're all single! Since there are three of us in the dorm who are still bachelors, don’t expect me to do all the work for you. I've set it up; whether you can win them over is up to you!" Wang Fei called from the bathroom as he stepped inside. "Meet at the girls' dorm at eight. It's already past seven; hurry up!"
"Hey, Lin Lang," he said, taking off his clothes, looking like a starving ghost, which made Jiang Liu despise him even more.
"Hey! Fourth, hurry up! Didn't you hear the boss introduce some girls for us to meet?" Lin Lang saw Jiang Liu still lying on the bed like a corpse and kicked him a few times in frustration.
"Let me lie down a bit longer!" Jiang Liu, who had been kicked, didn't even want to dodge. He weakly replied, "Didn't you just take a liking to Wang Xue at noon? Why are you changing targets so quickly?"
"Who said I'm changing targets!" Lin Lang scolded Jiang Liu in an exasperated tone. "Haven't you heard this saying? You can't hang yourself on one tree; you need to try a few more and then choose the most comfortable one in the end."
"Aren't you afraid of being caught two-timing?"
"What two-timing!" Lin Lang kicked him again. "Having someone on the side while dating your girlfriend is called two-timing! I don't have anyone right now, so how can it be two-timing? It's just market analysis!"
Jiang Liu finally recognized Lin Lang's ability to talk nonsense and helplessly got up to take a shower and change clothes.
Once everything was ready, Lin Lang asked Wang Fei, "Boss, where's the second one? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
"Oh, he's out having dinner with his girlfriend. He sent me a text."
"That guy who forgets his friends for love! I'll make sure he treats us to a meal next time!" Lin Lang held a grudge against the only one in their dorm with a girlfriend.
"Stop with the useless talk. If you had a girlfriend, you'd probably be worse!" Boss Wang Fei had just finished showering and came out. Hearing Lin Lang badmouthing the second brother, he shot back at him. He saw through Lin Lang and knew what kind of person he was.
"Hehe," Lin Lang didn't really argue back but watched as the boss finished drying off and walked into the bathroom.
After everyone finished washing up, more than twenty minutes had passed, and the three hurried towards the door.
On the way, Lin Lang suddenly asked Wang Fei, "Boss, how did you manage to charm so many girls?"
"Oh, due to the heat today, many girls in our class suffered from heatstroke. I took it upon myself to carry them one by one to the medical room. To show their gratitude, they wanted to treat me to a meal. Since I have two roommates, they decided to invite us all!"
"Only you could be the recognized boss of our dormitory 01 and think of us for such good fortune!"
"Don't celebrate too early!" Jiang Liu interjected. "They probably don't look that great; otherwise, the task of going to the medical room wouldn't have fallen on you!"
Lin Lang paused for a moment, then looked at Wang Fei with some concern and asked, "Boss, it can't really be like Jiang Liu said, right?"
"How could that be!" Wang Fei quickly waved his hand. "They're very pretty! The classmates asked me to take them to the medical room because they saw how strong I am!"
"Then I can rest easy!" Lin Lang said with a hum as he walked ahead.
Jiang Liu quickened his pace to catch up with Wang Fei. Looking at Lin Lang's excited figure ahead, he remarked, "My boss, your lying skills are really poor!"
"Shh!" Wang Fei hurriedly covered Jiang Liu's mouth and whispered back, "Sound Point! I really had no choice. I have a younger sister who is in the same year as me. She insisted on seeing my roommates today; I couldn't refuse."
"But you didn't need to lie about it," Jiang Liu replied, somewhat confused. There was no need for deception; even if they knew she was his sister, they wouldn't dare disrespect the boss.
"My sister specifically instructed me," Wang Fei said with a pained expression. "She doesn't want you guys to know that one of them is my sister! She just wants to see if any of my roommates are handsome!"
Jiang Liu looked helplessly at Wang Fei and teased, "You really listen to your sister."
"Hehe, what can I say? I've always doted on my sister!" Wang Fei said with a hint of pride. Jiang Liu, who had no sister, couldn't understand his feelings and could only remain silent.
"Just don't tell Third Brother. I knew I couldn't fool you, so I just hope to trick that guy!"
"Is that really necessary?" Jiang Liu thought that even if Lin Lang found out about it, given his personality, he would definitely participate; he might just tone it down a bit.
"You have no idea how terrible my sister's personality is. So among the three of us, one of us has to be sacrificed tonight," Wang Fei pointed at Lin Lang ahead and continued, "You, I can't fool you, so it looks like Third Brother has to be the one to go!"
"You really have a deep understanding of the saying that brothers are meant to be betrayed!" Jiang Liu said with a face full of exasperation.
"Hehe."
"Hey! Why are you two walking so slowly? Hurry up!"
"Got it, we're coming!"
And so the three of them walked toward the school gate while joking around.
