The summer weather was scorching, and school had yet to begin.
Du Ke returned to his alma mater, Anhui University. Although his four years of college had passed in a blur, they had still left behind many unforgettable memories. The six guys in his dorm had gotten along quite well. Even though they had all been out of school for over a year, they still kept in touch often. They simply lived in different cities and rarely had the chance to meet.
