After returning to the dorm, Li Haoyang wrapped himself in his blanket and said nothing.
People's sorrows did not resonate with one another. Dorm 515 was not large, but the ugliness of human nature had already been displayed to the fullest.
Although Li Haoyang was heartbroken, Wang Dachui was overjoyed.
He wore a smug, sleazy expression as he stood by Li Haoyang's bed, twisting his hips and muttering to himself, "Another single woman off the market. Wang Dachui's harem plus one."
"Hahahahaha!"
"I'm happy. Time to sing."
"Brothers, let's get hyped!"
Wang Dachui's joy stood in stark contrast to Li Haoyang's misery.
Luo Ye and Shen Qiao watched the scene with speechless expressions.
Suddenly, Luo Ye's phone chimed with a message notification.
Fairy Senior Sister: Chicken?
Seeing this, Luo Ye hurriedly replied: Play.
This was the code he used with Senior Qin to play games. As for why the message had come from Su Baizhou now... perhaps because they were roommates, and Senior Qin had told Fairy Senior Sister about it.
After a full day of work, Su Baizhou had invited Luo Ye to play a game.
They were both incredibly skilled. Not only had Luo Ye ranked Number One on the List for eliminations across multiple seasons, but Su Baizhou was also a female battle goddess, one of the very best female close-combat gunfighters.
Though neither of them was a streamer, much less a professional player, and they were not particularly famous in Battle Royale, they were both top-tier solo queue kings.
Even when matched against pros or skilled streamers, they could trade blows evenly. Who would win or lose remained uncertain.
And since they did not like matching with random teammates, they played duo squads almost every time.
After entering the matchmaking screen, Luo Ye put on his headphones.
Ever since he had grown closer to Fairy Senior Sister, she had been willing to turn on her mic and communicate while gaming.
But for some reason, Senior Qin had seemed to vanish lately and had not spoken to Luo Ye at all.
Could she be angry?
It made sense. Ever since he had met Fairy Senior Sister, he had not contacted Senior Qin even once, as though he had treated her merely as a tool for getting to know Fairy Senior Sister.
One day, he had to find Senior Qin Yuwen and thank her in person.
"Start," Su Baizhou said flatly.
"Okay."
The game began, and they entered the parachuting phase.
The two of them jumped straight into the most crowded area on the map and began slaughtering everyone in sight.
"Wild Child, you've been secretly playing games behind our backs?"
Wang Dachui leaned over the side of Luo Ye's bed. When he saw the latter's phone screen, his eyes widened in surprise. "And you're even carrying a girl?"
Su Baizhou was using Qin Yuwen's account. After all, she had claimed her own account belonged to Qin Yuwen, so she could only use Qin Yuwen's gaming account as a stand-in for her current identity.
Qin Yuwen used the same name for her Battle Royale and Honor of Kings accounts.
[I'm Big Bear, You Do As You Please].
Wang Dachui immediately grew excited and said, "Bring me along too. I want to carry a girl as well."
Because he was using Qin Yuwen's account, Su Baizhou looked terribly bad at the game in Luo Ye's eyes.
Her account stats were no different from those of a bot. She might not even have been as good as an elementary school student.
If Luo Ye scattered a handful of rice across his phone screen, even chickens would play better than she did.
With that premise, adding another bot king like Wang Dachui would only make Luo Ye feel immense pressure, so he decisively rejected Wang Dachui's request.
But after entering the game, Luo Ye realized that was not the case at all.
Fairy Senior Sister was not only beautiful, but also extremely skilled at gaming, just as skilled as Senior Qin.
Thinking about it, Senior Qin and Fairy Senior Sister lived in the same dorm, so they surely played games together often. It was only natural that their skills were similar.
But why were this account's past data and match records so ridiculously bad?
While Luo Ye was distracted, a grenade landed at his feet and exploded immediately.
By the time he came back to his senses, his character was already down on the ground, waiting to be rescued.
Luo Ye's mouth twitched.
Damn it, I embarrassed myself in front of the goddess.
This was his "first" time playing Battle Royale with Fairy Senior Sister. Before this, they had only played Honor of Kings a few times.
And Luo Ye was far better at Battle Royale than he was at Honor of Kings.
He had not expected to stumble in his specialty.
Not long after, Su Baizhou fought her way over and rescued Luo Ye.
Then, eager to prove himself, Luo Ye hurriedly said, "Senior Sister, I'll carry this round."
As he spoke, Luo Ye became incomparably fierce. Like an executioner, he drove Su Baizhou around the entire island map, killing everyone wherever they went.
Qin Yuwen's account rank was very low, only Platinum, so to Luo Ye, this rank was practically the lowest of low-tier lobbies.
After the match ended, Wang Dachui finally had a chance to speak. He asked in confusion, "Wild Child, is this the senior sister you've been thinking about nonstop lately?"
Hearing that, Luo Ye nodded and answered instinctively, "Yeah."
The moment the words left his mouth, Luo Ye suddenly realized something and panicked as he turned off the in-game microphone.
Oh no, oh no. Senior Sister heard that.
Meanwhile, in the Teacher's Apartment, Su Baizhou paused slightly when she heard the words "thinking about nonstop."
Then she smiled and typed, "Another one?"
"Let's go!"
No matter what, Luo Ye would never refuse to play games with Fairy Senior Sister.
Elsewhere.
The girls' dorm.
Tang Enqi logged into the game. When she saw that Luo Ye was online, her gaze shifted.
She knew Luo Ye was very good at this game. Back in high school, she had played with him herself.
She also knew he had a gaming partner called Loves Hot Pot, but that had only been an online friend whose gender was not even clear.
But now, after opening Luo Ye's team information, Tang Enqi suddenly discovered that the person currently playing with Luo Ye had the ID [I'm Big Bear, You Do As You Please].
That was obviously a girl's name, and... it was the name of a girl very confident in her figure.
With that thought, Tang Enqi tapped Luo Ye's reservation message.
[Want to play together next round?]
[The other party has rejected your reservation request.]
Tang Enqi froze slightly.
Rejected...
Since she had known Luo Ye, this was the first time she had seen the word "rejected."
Had he rejected her for the girl currently duo-queuing with him?
Tang Enqi's brows furrowed faintly.
Luo Ye could choose not to like her. She could accept that.
But she could not accept Luo Ye liking someone else.
What belonged to her, she could choose not to keep, but no one else could pick it up either. Especially since she still had feelings for Luo Ye and had not given up on him; she was merely still considering things.
She wanted to see exactly who could make Luo Ye fall for her.
Her phone continued receiving messages from Gao Yuming.
This Gao Yuming, relying on the little money his family had, acted as if he were floating on air. Tang Enqi did not like him.
Moreover, he kept harassing her. Compared to him, aside from Luo Ye's family background being inferior, Luo Ye was better than that guy in countless other ways.
Liu Bingxin was not in the dorm.
After they had gone out to eat with Gao Yuming, Liu Bingxin had gone for a walk with another senior student.
He was a third-year senior named Shuai Kun. He had pursued Tang Enqi before, but after realizing it was hopeless, he had turned to pursuing Liu Bingxin instead.
University might be wonderful, but when the forest was large enough, there would always be scum like this.
