After chatting for a few minutes about what had happened in the past few days, Luo Qiaoqiao told Xu Bo about her academic pressure over the phone.

Her grades were good enough to get her into top universities in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, but what she implied was that she wanted to come to Hangzhou University.

Xu Bo naturally knew what she was thinking, but now that He Yimei was already in Hangzhou University, Xu Bo knew the principle that two tigers cannot share one mountain.

"Your grades are a bit of a disadvantage for Hangzhou University," Xu Bo said softly, lighting a lonely cigarette.

"Hangzhou University is great, it's right next to West Lake, you know, I grew up watching Bai Suzhen."

The Legend of the White Snake aired in 1992, so I've watched it since I was a child.

The two agreed that Luo Qiaoqiao would call at 10:30 every night before hanging up.

As soon as she hung up the landline, Luo's mother gently knocked on the door and came in. She had been listening outside the door for a while. Although Luo Qiaoqiao's voice was very low, Luo's mother was not stupid.

"Go to bed early, honey. Mom'll buy you some steamed buns from the shop downstairs tomorrow morning, okay?"

Luo Qiaoqiao disliked the smell of the food in the shop. Every time she went there, she would smell of oil from the breakfast on her clothes, so she never ate there. Her mother or father would buy her breakfast instead.

"Mom, I'm going to get a haircut tomorrow night," Luo Qiaoqiao suddenly said.

Li Molin was a little surprised. Just a few days ago, the girl said she didn't want to cut her hair yet, and that she would let it grow long after the college entrance examination so that it would be convenient to style it however she wanted.

Why do I have to keep my current short hair?

The only possibility is that Xu Bo, that brat, has bewitched his own girl.

Li Moling took a deep look at her daughter, sighed, stroked her daughter's soft hair, said nothing, and closed the door.

Back in the bedroom, looking at her husband snoring softly beside her, Luo's mother figured she wouldn't get a good night's sleep.

Xu Bo hung up the phone, took the last breath of the nicotine into his lungs, and tiptoed to his bed with the last bit of nicotine in his lungs.

Just as Wang Yan finished charging his phone and was about to go to sleep, he suddenly patted Xu Bo's foot lightly.

"Xiao Bo, I believe you have a girlfriend." The voice rang out like a ghost in the silent night.

Xu Bo was startled, then shrieked, "Are you crazy? I have plenty of girlfriends, I'm sleeping with them."

Xu Bo was tired after traveling all day and didn't want to start a discussion late at night.

And just like that, the first day of school passed.

Wang Yan, a sensitive and thoughtful person, was left pondering something.

......

......

Early in the morning, before nine o'clock, Du Qinglong's low groans could be heard coming from the dormitory.

He groggily opened his eyes and saw Du Qinglong punching the ground below.

"You're up so early?" Yu Haoqi sat up, his hair messy, and squinted his eyes as he groggily said.

"I have to practice the boxing I was taught at home every morning."

With a soft exhale, Du Qinglong spoke in a low voice.

"Holy crap! You can box too!"

This immediately piqued everyone's interest; no one had expected that there was someone in the dormitory who knew kung fu.

"Of course, we've been fighting since we were kids." Du Qinglong said calmly, rubbing his fists together, but then he slumped down.

"I also have a cousin who is even more of a feminist."

Xu Bo was taken aback at first, then chuckled to himself, thinking that feminism was indeed formidable.

The sleepiness of the group was instantly dispelled. They quickly got out of bed, washed up, and tidied up. At nine o'clock, they went out to find breakfast.

The food in the cafeteria was just enough to fill their stomachs; it wasn't particularly delicious. The four of them stood in front of the cafeteria window and couldn't help but miss the aroma of the food that Xu Bo had brought back the night before.

"You guys go ahead and buy it, I have something to do."

The cafeteria wasn't crowded, since it was already past nine o'clock and most students, except for freshmen, had gone to class.

"Hey, where are you going?" Yu Haoqi asked, puzzled.

Xu Bo did not respond, but walked directly out of the group and went behind a window not far away.

"Xu Bo couldn't have gone to pick up girls, could he?"

Du Qinglong noticed several girls behind Xu Bo's line, one of whom, a chubby girl, was shaking her head and looking at the food signs in front of her.

"Hey, we're both freshmen, but Xu Bo has already taken the initiative." Wang Yan may seem like a socially awkward person, but he's actually quite a closet flirt.

At the back of the other line, Liu Xiaojuan was shaking her head, looking at the sign in front of her, while Qin Fang was wearing black-rimmed glasses and looked a little dazed, clearly not fully awake.

Qian Liyue and Bai Feifei were arm in arm discussing something.

"Hi, classmate, I forgot my meal card, could I borrow it for a moment?"

No one noticed that Xu Bo had quietly arrived behind them.

"Senior...?" Bai Feifei recognized the senior who was always involved in illegal activities first, and asked softly with a furrowed brow.

"Senior, don't you have classes today?"

Xu Bo grinned: "No, I skipped class to come out because I was hungry."

Qin Fang stared at Xu Bo for a long time but still couldn't figure out the relationship between him and Bai Feifei, so she didn't say anything and turned to look at the line in front of her.

Liu Xiaojuan and Qian Liyue were left looking at Xu Bo with curiosity.

"I was in a rush today and didn't bring my meal card. Can I borrow it for a moment?" Xu Bo asked again.

Perhaps thinking of the Longjing shrimp from last night, Bai Feifei nodded reluctantly.

The Longjing shrimp was indeed delicious, but Liu Xiaojuan, a foodie, exclaimed in surprise as soon as she saw the name on the bag.

"This restaurant is not cheap; one dish here costs as much as our weekly living expenses."

Although I didn't ask for it, it was still delivered after all.

"He spent so much money on just one meal. I really need to keep my distance from him from now on."

Bai Feifei nodded in agreement, but in her heart she already regarded Xu Bo as a villain who made money by deceiving girls and then lived a life of debauchery.

Soon it was their turn. Liu Xiaojuan originally wanted to talk to Xu Bo and ask him about the situation at school, but the next second she was attracted by the food behind the counter.

"Give me a serving of xiaolongbao, a tea egg, and a bowl of plain congee."

Apart from Bai Feifei, the other girls ordered pretty much the same things.

After swiping his card, it was Xu Bo's turn very quickly.

"Give me two baskets of xiaolongbao, a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and two tea eggs." Boys always have a big appetite, especially since Xu Bo was eating this as lunch.

The cafeteria lady quickly brought out the food and placed the card reader in front of Xu Bo, indicating that he should swipe his card. However, Xu Bo pointed to Bai Feifei, indicating that she should pay the bill.

Seeing this, the aunt had no choice but to urge, "Come on, next one."

Bai Feifei stood in front of the counter, looking at the row of breakfasts and said calmly.

"Give me a bowl of plain congee and a vegetarian steamed bun, that will be enough."

After saying that, he looked at the meal card in his hand, made up his mind, and put the card on the plate.

The "beep" sound indicates that the card swipe was successful.
