Returning to university, starting with confessing to his ex-wife, his counselor.

The male students in the School of Materials Science and Engineering live in Dormitory Building 3 in the East, which faces the female dormitory building 4 in the East.

When Liang Chao escorted Xiao Jiayu to Building No. 4, it was already 10:10 p.m.

This was the peak time for girls to get hot water or go to the Dongyuan Bathhouse. Liang Chao stood next to a bench by the roadside under the streetlights, his tall stature and handsome, rugged face attracting the attention of many scantily clad girls.

Several girls from the north, dressed in their pajamas, had just returned from the bathhouse. Whether intentionally or not, they brushed against him.

Liang Chao carefully dodged, but the surrounding air was filled with the fragrance of shower gel.

The girls playfully teased each other, occasionally stealing glances at him, their youthful faces beaming with smiles, radiating the unique charm of youth.

Master Liang, embodying the virtues of a true gentleman, kept his eyes straight ahead, not even glancing at them.

"Um... I'm leaving now!"

He smiled and waved to Xiao Jiayu, then took a deep breath as he turned around, instantly feeling refreshed.

"etc!"

Liang Chao’s expression changed as his best friend’s voice came from behind him. He thought to himself, “No way, I just secretly checked my lungs, this... this isn’t a capital offense, is it?”

"What's wrong?" He turned around with a smile, his expression calm and without any flaws.

Xiao Jiayu did not notice anything unusual about someone. She glanced at Liang Chao and whispered.

"Aren't you...aren't you going back to your dorm now?"

"Huh? I... I still need to go for a run, I need to go to the track." Liang Chao was taken aback, but answered truthfully.

Recently, he has been exercising in the morning and going for a run every night, without slacking off in the slightest.

This morning, he completed the first week's tasks, and his physique has increased from 6.2 to 6.4. Half of this increase is due to the weekly reward issued by the system, and the other half is due to the natural growth after exercise.

The physical changes after the increase in physique are very obvious. Not only has the strength of punches and kicks increased significantly, but physical endurance and speed have also improved considerably.

This excited Liang Chao, because the system informed him that once his physique reached 8.5, all of his physical attributes would be among the world's top athletes.

It's not a single attribute; it possesses both Bolt's speed and Tyson's punching power and resilience.

Not only does it possess the stamina and flexibility of top-tier Asians, but it also boasts the size and... cough cough, in short, it's top-tier in every aspect.

Your health is your greatest asset as a man!

Liang Chao has changed his mindset, turning night runs and morning exercises from tasks into essential daily routines like eating and sleeping.

He was lost in thought, completely unaware that his best friend's cheeks were flushed.

"Oh, running is good, you should run more often." Xiao Jiayu lowered her head, her heart pounding.

She knew that Liang Chao was consistently exercising every day. Others might not have noticed, but she could sense that Liang Chao... seemed to have lost a little weight.

[I already have pectoral muscles, so next time I'll be able to touch them...]

Just now in the library, she took advantage of a break from hitting someone to secretly touch someone's pectoral muscles.

It was bulging and hard; when she hit it, her fist lost all strength.

[He touched my legs, he touched my teddy bear, and we're almost kissing! He has to be good to me from now on, don't even think about going back on your word!]

[Since he wants to be with me, then his abs...are actually my abs?]

After deciding to extort money, Xiao Jiayu's mind instantly became clear!

I thought to myself, even if it's just for "my" abs, I have to do something!

"You must have come back late from your run. Do you want me to fetch you a bucket of hot water?" The girl's cheeks were flushed, and she asked shyly.

"What?" Liang Chao was dumbfounded.

In college, isn't it usually the guys who get hot water for the girls? Why is it like this when it's me...?

"No, no!"

Liang Chao glanced at his little best friend's petite frame and thought to himself, "With those tiny arms and legs, it's already a struggle for her to help me with... cough cough~ that, let alone fetch hot water! Forget it!"

"I'll just rinse myself with cold water after I finish running!"

"That won't do! Taking a cold shower can easily cause a cold, and it's bad for your skin, affecting the feel... no, it affects the texture of your skin..."

Xiao Jiayu panicked and only noticed the boy's shocked gaze halfway through her sentence, making her extremely embarrassed.

She turned her face to the side, blushing as she explained.

"It wasn't me who went to fight... I... I couldn't fight her, it was Xiaoxue..."

"That won't do! Tang Xue is a girl too, and it's such a big bucket!"

Liang Chao waved his hand, thinking to himself that Xiaoxue was also a person and shouldn't be treated too badly.

"Liang Chao, we can help!"

After speaking, Liang Chao was about to turn and leave when he saw a beautiful face peek out from the small door of the girls' dormitory building—it was Tang Xue.

He was momentarily stunned, and his gaze instinctively shifted downwards.

A light drizzle was still falling over Sichuan University at night, but the temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold. The long-legged girl in front of me was wearing a cool and loose summer nightgown, her collarbone, shoulders, and beautiful legs were all exposed, a white expanse that was as tempting as a ginseng fruit.

He couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"No need!" Liang Chao's smile was somewhat awkward as he looked at Tang Xue who had suddenly appeared.

Tang Xue didn't mind the glances someone was giving her. She exchanged a look with Xiao Jiayu, and after the latter nodded, she slipped on her sandals and jogged over to Liang Chao.

Then, without giving the boy time to react, she grabbed his arm and dragged him into the girls' dormitory.

"Hey, no way! I'm a boy, I can't live in the girls' dormitory!" Liang Chao glared, refusing sternly, but his body followed Tang Xue into the girls' dormitory building through the small door.

Holy crap! Is this what a girls' dormitory is like? Even the air smells amazing!

Liang Chao's face was rosy as he curiously looked around.

Just as he was about to ask the two women what they intended to do, they suddenly surrounded him, glanced furtively at the door, and then lowered their voices.

"I'm going to show you something, but you're not allowed to tell any other guys! Otherwise, the other girls in our dorm will cause trouble!"

Looking for trouble?

Liang Chao paused for a moment, then took the phone from Tang Xue with some suspicion.

It was an anonymous QQ group called "Water Fighter Group 4". There were 20 people in the group, 5 girls and 15 boys.

The group owner's profile picture is a hero from Sheep Village wearing a red cape. The boys' nicknames are all [Professional + Water-Fetcher + Number], while the girls' nicknames are [Goddess + Number].

Tang Xue's nickname is—Goddess 1.

Seeing this, Liang Chao couldn't hold back anymore. What kind of "simp concentration camp" is this? It's too abstract!

"From now on, your hot water will be shared with our dorm!" Tang Xue said, her eyes crinkling with pride.

"How's it going? Are you happy?"

"This...this isn't quite right!" Liang Chao was embarrassed, thinking to himself that even a simp's life is a life, so wouldn't this be too inhumane?

"Oh, what's wrong with it!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xue lightly patted Liang Chao and said in an annoyed tone.

"It's just asking them to fetch one more bucket of water, they'll be happy to!"

"You wouldn't believe it, that senior from the School of Economics and Management upstairs carries five buckets of water a day—two for her own dorm, two for her boyfriend's dorm, and one for the dorm supervisor!"

"We only need two buckets of water a day in our dorm, no one would notice if we added one more!"

Liang Chao was still hesitating when Xiao Jiayu shook his arm, looking at him with concern, "Liang Chao, you run until so late every day, and you still have to fetch your own water? That must be so tiring!"

"Exactly! If Liang Chao really feels bad about it, just treat us to dinner during the National Day holiday!"

Tang Xue, her eyes darting around, seized the opportunity to make a suggestion.

"It's been so long since school started, and our two dorm rooms haven't gotten together yet. This is a perfect opportunity!"

Having said all that, what could Liang Chao do? He thought to himself that he might as well enjoy it for a while.

"Okay, I'll call them and have them bring the water bucket down. Oh, and how much is the water bill again? I'll transfer it to you!"

Liang Chao nodded helplessly, took out his phone to transfer money to Tang Xue, but she pressed his hand down, shook her head with a smile.

"No need, no need! They cover the water bill!"

"What about the bucket?" Liang Chao asked instinctively, startled.

"Water buckets are included! Not only do we give away water buckets, but we also have a lucky draw every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday!"

"lottery?!!"

Xiaoxue nodded and said earnestly.

"But it wasn't us girls who did the lottery, it was them. I think it was the group admin who organized it! They said it was to prevent the boys from trying to show off and disturbing the girls' lives."

"The boys who are selected can spend money to buy snacks for the girls in the group, such as oden, and deliver them to the girls' dormitory."

Liang Chao stared wide-eyed. He recognized every word Tang Xue said, but when put together, it touched on a blind spot in his understanding.

Win a prize and have to spend money?

How is this any different from college students paying to work?

"No, what are they after?"

This time, Xiaoxue pursed her lips and remained silent, as if she was worried about something.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiayu quickly explained on Tang Xue's behalf.

"The group organizes a social event every two weeks, with the guys paying. The girls can bring their boyfriends or best friends. But it's entirely voluntary for the girls; Xiaoxue has never gone! Don't get me wrong!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Chao opened his mouth, but was speechless.

This world is too crazy for him to understand!
