Wang Dachui

Biodata

Background / History

Wang Dachui comes from the province where Jiangcheng University is located, as do his roommates Li Haoyang and Shen Qiao. He moves into the dorm shortly after Luo Ye and arrives alongside Shen Qiao. Luo Ye welcomes him by putting an arm around his shoulders and pulling him inside 2 5.

During freshman military training, Dachui falls asleep standing at attention after the roommates spend the previous night gaming until four in the morning. The instructor adds half an hour to the formation’s punishment and orders Dachui to run ten laps, increasing it to fifteen when he attempts to object 4.

After training ends, the four roommates celebrate with hot pot and beer. Dachui challenges Shen Qiao to finish a bottle, with the loser required to call the winner “Dad.” He concedes after two gulps, loudly accepts the penalty, and then vomits; Shen Qiao records his surrender 5.

Appearance

• Approximately 170 centimeters tall 2.
• Introduced as “sleazy-looking,” with shifty glances and a sly grin that recur in descriptions of his behavior 2 3.
• Described as moving like a monkey when he rushes into the dorm after the holiday 43.

Personality

Dachui is an unabashed extrovert, otaku, and enthusiastic admirer of attractive women. He follows campus beauty rankings, seeks out opportunities to meet girls, and envies the attention Shen Qiao receives. Despite repeatedly calling himself handsome and charming, he struggles to turn his confidence into romantic success 3 20 23.

His teasing often revolves around declaring himself his roommates’ “father,” claiming girls as prospective partners, and protesting whenever a roommate stops being single. He openly defends what Luo Ye calls “simping,” but his own approach leaves him spending money on a shopping trip and receiving little attention from Tang Enqi afterward 12 13 27.

Beneath the crude jokes, Dachui is dependable when his friends need him. Luo Ye explicitly recognizes that he steps up at important moments. Dachui also respects Luo Ye’s refusal to share a senior’s photograph, reminds him to ask for help during the holiday, and chooses his roommates over an opportunity to spend time with two beautiful girls 8 27 45.
