Chapter 88 The Simple and Brutal Truth
Cheng Feng, holding his phone, sat in the passenger seat of the taxi: "Did you need something?"

On the other end of the phone, Huang He hesitated before speaking: "Um—you went to the hospital for a checkup, and you're alright, right?"

Cheng Feng frowned: "Did that bastard Andy tell you to ask?"

"No, no, didn't you see it at the bar? Andy and I don't get along, I didn't even go back to the dorm tonight."

After hearing Huang He's explanation, Cheng Feng's expression softened a bit: "What exactly happened between you and Andy?"

"It's a long story. I'm right downstairs in your dorm right now. How about we meet and talk?" Huang He asked tentatively.

"Okay, we'll be at school in half an hour."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here."

After putting down his phone, Cheng Feng turned to Yang Muyi and Liu Qing in the back seat and told them that it was Huang He who had called to ask him to meet.

“He’s a nice guy. I guess he wants to thank you in person,” Yang Muye replied casually.

He also revealed that Huang He had compensated the bar owner for the losses on behalf of Cheng Feng and Andy.

Cheng Feng nodded after listening.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Huang He is as righteous as Yang Muye said. I'm determined to be his friend.

Sitting next to Yang Muye, Liu Qing couldn't help but tease, "Hey, Young Master Cheng, you didn't say that when you were scolding He Yueyue before. Those guys from the International Business School whose college entrance exam scores weren't even good enough for a junior college, what kind of class are they to be friends with you?"

Cheng Feng ignored Liu Qing and looked directly at Yang Muye, asking, "Are you two hiding something from me? I have a feeling she's deliberately stirring things up."

"Be confident, put aside your feelings, she's just stirring things up. Go back and ask around at the business school about her relationship with He Yueyue, and you'll know why she did this," Yang Muye replied calmly.

Cheng Feng's eyes lit up after hearing this.

"Senior, we're in the same boat now. What's the plan? Tell me about it."

Liu Qing pursed her lips: "You've already signed the settlement agreement, so stop trying to get involved in this. Just wait and see what happens."

“Okay, then I’m really looking forward to it!” Cheng Feng replied.

Half an hour later, the taxi stopped at the school gate.

Liu Qing returned to Jiahao New City, while Yang Muyi and Cheng Feng returned to their dormitory.

On the way, the two started chatting, but the topic had nothing to do with what happened that night.

"You're leaving your hotel executive suite empty?"

"My mother is also staying at Fairfield Inn, so I won't go tonight to avoid an awkward encounter."

"She came all the way to see you and even bought you two houses, but it still didn't make you change your mind?"

"Didn't your dad buy you a sports car worth over four million? Have you made up with him?"

"Of course not, I will never forgive him in my life."

"So you'd better pray that he only has one son in his life, and that when you suddenly have a half-brother or half-sister, you'll still be as unruly as you are now!"

Cheng Feng chuckled self-deprecatingly: "That's true. You're still you even without your parents, but if I leave my dad, I'm nothing."

Yang Muye turned to look at Cheng Feng: "Are you really planning to live like this for the rest of your life?"

Cheng Feng patted Yang Muyi on the shoulder: "I know you mean well, but I think things are fine as they are now. We can talk about it again when my dad adds another baby to the family, just like you said."

When it comes to investing and starting a business, Cheng Feng admits that he is not even a fraction as good as Yang Muyi.

But when it comes to the inheritance dispute, Cheng Feng doesn't think he'll lose.

As they spoke, the two arrived at the dormitory building.

Huang He was standing at the entrance of the building when he saw the two of them and immediately came over.

Cheng Feng immediately complained upon meeting me: "Seriously, buddy, were you really just waiting downstairs like an idiot the whole time? You managed to get my phone number from Wu Di, but you didn't even ask which dorm I live in?"

Huang He hurriedly explained that he had already gone up there.

He also carried a large bag of barbecue and a case of beer, which he didn't mention.

"Then you can just wait in room 203, why do you have to wait downstairs? Is it to show that you're more sincere?"

To be honest, Cheng Feng now suspects that Huang He might be deliberately getting close to him with some ulterior motive.

Otherwise, why would you need to do this to make friends normally?
"I don't usually go to other people's dorms. I only went to the door just now, I didn't go in."

Cheng Feng looked at Huang He, puzzled: "Is there any other significance to this?"

“Well—my family in Shanghai runs a full-service funeral service, and many people there are superstitious about it, so I’m quite careful about it,” Huang He explained.

Cheng Feng nodded, understanding.

Andy's family is in the wedding planning business, no wonder they clashed with Huang He.

Cheng Feng was about to scold Andy and help Huang He vent his anger when Yang Muye suddenly spoke up: "Are you two planning to just stand at the door and talk like this?"

Cheng Feng put his arm around Huang He's shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go sit in our dorm for a while. Don't worry, I'm not like that good-for-nothing Andy, who blames others for his own incompetence. Actually, I'm quite interested in your family's business. I just want to make a friend like you, in case I need you someday."

Huang He hurriedly waved his hand, telling Cheng Feng not to talk nonsense.

He would rather not be friends with Cheng Feng than have anything happen to Cheng Feng.

That's not how the funeral business works.

Cheng Feng patted Huang He on the shoulder and praised him for being a man of great taste.

Back in dormitory 203, Wu Di told them that Huang He had just delivered barbecue. There was so much that Wu Di and Shi Xiaomeng couldn't finish it all, so they shared it with the other dormitories in the class. Yang Muyi and Cheng Feng's goodwill towards Huang He increased even more.

Everyone had a bottle of beer in hand, and they chatted while eating barbecue.

During the conversation, Cheng Feng kept cursing Andy and also mentioned his past conflicts with Andy.

Huang He also said that because of what happened tonight, he will no longer live in the dormitory and plans to rent a house off campus.

Cheng Feng couldn't help but complain to Huang He: "You're just too good-tempered. Andy took advantage of that to deliberately cause trouble. And that short guy at the police station with you today, which side is he on?"

"You mean Lao Xie? He's my childhood friend."

Are you from the same place?

"Yes, we're all from Shanghai."

"No, I know the saying that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, but there are two of you and Andy alone. When you had a conflict with Andy, I didn't see your childhood friend siding with you."

"At first, Lao Xie tried to persuade Andy, but Andy wouldn't listen. In the end, I couldn't take it anymore, so I argued with Andy."

Cheng Feng was puzzled: "Are you two afraid of Andy alone? Or is the other person in the dorm also Andy's accomplice?"

Huang He explained somewhat embarrassedly, "There are only three people in our dormitory."

"There's an empty bed?"

"No, someone lives there, but that person hasn't come yet."

"Not from your class?"

"No, it's from the School of Economics."

"Aren't the dormitories for your School of International Business all located in a few buildings? Why are the students from the School of Economics assigned to your dorms?"

Huang He shook his head blankly; he didn't know what was going on either.

On the contrary, Yang Muye, who was standing to the side, had a thoughtful expression on his face.

I couldn't understand why He Yueyue didn't have a college entrance exam score, but now I realize I was thinking the wrong thing.

He Yueyue did have a college entrance exam score; it's just that her score was too low to let others know.

Soon, a way to get into Yanjing Trade with low scores gradually took shape in Yang Muye's mind.

The secrets and mysteries lie within the School of International Business.

Yang Muyi's previous impression of the International Business School was that Cheng Feng said it didn't care about scores and you could get in just by having money. He also thought that the students there were all applying to this third-tier college with the goal of studying abroad.

In retrospect, I had oversimplified things.

The vast majority of students in the School of International Business are indeed aiming to study abroad, but there are a very small minority who are not. For example, He Yueyue, and Huang He's mysterious roommate who never shows up.

These people are first admitted to the School of International Business, and then before the start of the semester, they transfer to majors that are normally extremely competitive and difficult to get into through the national college entrance examination.

Ten years of hard study have made it possible to surpass the efforts of three generations of others; this moment truly brings it to life.

Having lived two lives, Yang Muye was used to such things. However, he never expected that He Yueyue, as the beneficiary of this secret shortcut, would be so oblivious to the need for discretion.

Of course, it's also possible that they've become so emboldened that they believe no one could possibly discover this secret, let alone make it public.

Just then, Yang Muye's phone rang.

It was Liu Qing calling.

After greeting the others, Yang Muye took his phone and went to the balcony.

"I found He Yueyue's high school on the school's intranet."

Yang Muye was stunned when Liu Qing mentioned the name of the high school.

He Yueyue and Cheng Feng actually attended the same high school.

Yang Muye had no intention of involving Cheng Feng in this matter, and he also abandoned the idea of ​​telling Cheng Feng about it.

Over the phone, Yang Muye told Liu Qing about the guess he had just come up with.

After hearing this, Liu Qing was quite shocked.

Although Liu Qing had guessed that He Yueyue got into university through connections, the fact that she changed her major from the School of International Business still shocked her.

The method of a third-tier university student turning around to become a 211 university is simple, brutal, straightforward, and outrageous.

Who would have thought that this could be done?
After processing the news, Liu Qing asked, "Are you planning to have Cheng Feng check He Yueyue's college entrance exam scores?"

"No need, I have someone more suitable than him."

"Xia Qing?"

"No, it's someone you don't know. Wait for my message."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Yang Muye didn't rush back to his dormitory. Instead, he opened his QQ app and added a new friend with the username "You Can Reach the Stars".

"Big star, can you do me a favor?"

After sending the message, Yang Muye turned around and went back to his dormitory, only to find that there was another person inside.

It's Ding Ning.

After they became familiar with each other, Ding Ning would visit dormitory 203 whenever she had the chance.

When Yang Muye came in, Cheng Feng was introducing Huang He to Ding Ning.

Ding Ning was also tempted when she heard that Huang He was going to rent a house off-campus.

He really didn't want to continue sharing a dormitory with Liu Qiang.

"How about we share an apartment? We can negotiate the price with the landlord."

Ding Ning suggested.

The idea was good, but Huang He looked troubled.

"Here's the thing, my childhood friend, Lao Xie, Cheng Feng and I, we've met before, we're in the same dorm, and we agreed to rent a place together. We're currently looking for a two-bedroom apartment, but I'm asking if there are any three-bedroom apartments available, so we'll rent one together."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Wu Di suddenly interrupted.

"If you ask me, you guys shouldn't bother renting a place outside, you should just change dorms."

All eyes in the room were on Wu Di.

How to change?
"Ding Ning, don't you have a senior in room 205? He doesn't live in the dorm anyway, so if we give him a little something, he'll definitely agree to switch dorms. Plus, with Liu Qiang, it's a perfect opportunity for him to switch dorms with Huang He and his childhood friend, isn't it?"

Huang Hechi looked at Ding Ning and asked, "Would you be willing to switch with Liu Qiang from your dorm? Our Andy is not easy to get along with."

Cheng Feng casually cursed, "That bastard Andy just doesn't like you and is deliberately picking a fight. I know his character all too well; he's just a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong."

Ding Ning's gaze immediately hardened.

Andy is a bully who preys on the weak, while Liu Qiang is shameless and persistent—they're a perfect match!

"Liu Qiang is easy to talk to. As long as you give him enough benefits, he'll be willing to move out and sleep on the streets."

Huang He was also somewhat tempted after hearing this.

It's not that I'm trying to save money on renting a place outside, but living in the dormitory is definitely more convenient than living outside.

Unless you're like Yang Muye, who goes straight to stay in a hotel.

After reaching a consensus, Ding Ning immediately returned to room 205 to discuss it with Liu Qiang.

A few minutes later, Ding Ning brought back news that was hard to tell whether it was good or bad.

Liu Qiang agreed to change dormitories, but on the condition that Huang He give him a 5000 yuan bribe.

Wu Di and Shi Xiaomeng both felt that Liu Qiang was asking for an exorbitant price. Wu Di even changed his tune and advised Huang He that if things didn't work out, they should rent a place outside.

"5000 is indeed a bit too much. I don't have that much money on me right now. Can I withdraw it for him tomorrow?"

Huang He asked timidly.

Everyone looked at each other.

Well, another one who's not short of money.

That being said, those who can afford to study at the International Business School are unlikely to be short of money, after all, the tuition is 200,000 yuan a year.

Fearing that Liu Qiang might change his mind, Ding Ning immediately returned to room 205 to finalize the matter.

If it weren't so late, Ding Ning would have wanted Liu Qiang to move out immediately.

Wu Di didn't expect that the dormitory change could actually be negotiated. The current situation is that after Liu Qiang moves out, no one will be using Ding Ning's computer anymore. Wu Di is also planning to return the computer that Ding Ning sold to him for 5000 yuan.

He was immediately met with a stern refusal from Ding Ning as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I've already chosen the laptop model. If you find the desktop computer convenient, you can keep it; if not, I'll sell it to someone else."

Ding Ning's meaning was also very clear: since he was going to sell the desktop computer at a loss anyway, he might as well sell it to Wu Di and consider it as making a friend.

Having said that, Wu Di stopped insisting.

Just then, Qiao Jingjing replied to Yang Muye's message on QQ.

"??"

"I want to inquire about someone from your high school, but it's inconvenient to contact Cheng Feng and Xia Qing, so I have to trouble you."

Yang Muye replied.

The real reason is that Qiao Jingjing is far away in Shanghai. Even if He Yueyue's college entrance examination results are exposed, people wouldn't suspect Qiao Jingjing from that distance.

Qiao Jingjing quickly replied:

"Is it someone I know?"

"You probably don't know each other. When you were in your first year of high school, the other person had already graduated for two years."

"Class of 01?"

"Correct."

"I will help you ask."

"Do you know anyone in her year?"

"My neighbor's older sister was in the class of 01."

"That person's name is He Yueyue. I want to know her college entrance examination score. I don't need to ask for specifics, just a general score range, such as whether she passed the first-tier university admission line."
