This cat is too smart. Zhou Heyu opened the tablet with some skepticism and entered the password.
Then I saw the blue-eyed kitten open the notes app, create a new page, and even change the keyboard from 26 keys to 9 keys, and then start typing in Pinyin.
Zhou Heyu: "..."
Has this world finally become fantastical?
The cat's paws in the Xie Ji are too big, and I always press the wrong keys, making typing very difficult. I can only try to keep it as short as possible.
"Cat, Xie Ji, transformation."
Zhou Heyu gave it a strange look, and after a long while, he managed to say with difficulty, " Xie Ji?"
Xie Little Cat: "Meow!"
It's me, Little Zhou!
Zhou Heyu quickly picked up the cat. "Are you really Xie Ji? Who turned you into this? How can I help you?"
Xie Ji struggled to get down and sat in front of the tablet to continue typing, "Don't worry, I'll be back."
After Zhou Heyu realized the kitten was Xie Ji, he turned his gaze to the Big Orange that was munching away, and paused for a moment in an odd silence. "Is it Lu Xunji?"
Xie Ji: "?"
Little Zhou, are you trying to ruin this world-renowned academic genius from Lu University?
Zhou Heyu: "Okay, it shouldn't be."
Xie Ji tapped the tablet repeatedly and typed a few words: "Command Department, Competition?"
Zhou Heyu thought for a moment, then sat down and stroked Xie Ji's fur. "Why are you asking this? Didn't Lu Xunji tell you?"
Xie Ji shook his head and meowed.
"The Command Department does indeed have a national-level competition recently, and many prestigious families will be participating. I heard that the first-place winner will be received by the Imperial Family," Zhou Heyu said. "However, the competition is only open to third-year students, but Lu Xunji passed the final exams for third-year students in the Command Department and was made an exception to participate... I thought he would tell you about it."
Xie Ji couldn't understand, so he typed a word on the tablet. "For?"
Why would Lu Xunji, a student majoring in individual combat, participate in a competition for command personnel?
Zhou Heyu gave him a strange look. "You're with him all the time, how come you didn't know? He didn't even take the first-year courses in the individual combat department. I heard he already completed them through self-study. He's mostly taking second-year, or even third- or fourth-year, mecha practical courses now... He's really too outstanding."
It was so dazzling that it shocked everyone.
Zhou Heyu pinched Xie Little Ji's ear.
He seems to have come to accept that Xie Ji prefers Lu Xunji; after all, if it were him, he definitely couldn't have done what Lu Xunji did.
This isn't human, this is a god!
Xie Ji nodded, finally relieved to know what Lu Xunji had been doing. He had thought Lu Xunji had done something drastic to cause his exhaustion.
He had even considered the possibility that Lu Xunji was secretly harming himself behind his back, but he dismissed the idea after not seeing any new injuries on Lu Xunji's wrist.
However, it seems that being a top student isn't easy; look how exhausted Lu Xunji is.
" Ji Shi said you went to special training, so you turned into a kitten." Zhou Heyu squeezed his paw. " Lu Xunji should know, right? Are you hungry? I have lots of snacks here."
He paused, then chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Never mind, Lu Xunji probably can't let you go hungry. I was just being nosy. You came all this way so late just to ask me about Lu Xunji, right?"
Xie Ji nodded, and the kitten sighed.
He and Lu Xunji were clearly the closest people, but Lu Xunji wouldn't tell him anything, and he had to ask others to find out what he'd been busy with lately.
Zhou Heyu didn't say anything, just hugged and petted the kitten.
Big Orange was still frantically eating when Xie Ji kicked him in exasperation.
"I'm going back." Xie Ji meowed, greeted Zhou Heyu, and nimbly jumped out of the window.
"Meow meow!" The Big Orange meowed anxiously twice, then, unwilling to give up the delicious food, ate a couple more bites before leaving with Xie Ji.
Xie Ji returned to the bedroom, shook off the grass leaves from his clothes, nudged Lu Xunji's nose with the tip of his nose, and snuggled up next to him.
The next day, Xie Ji felt as if he had been licked awake.
My lips were moistened by the intrusion, and the familiar, cool fragrance of plum blossoms wafted into my nose.
Xie Ji opened his eyes groggily, and the first thing he saw was Lu Xunji's stunningly beautiful, aloof face.
"..."
Warm breath escaped and was then pressed between their intertwined lips. Lu Xunji never liked to close his eyes when kissing; his dark purple eyes swirled with passion, half-closed, staring intently at him, a deep, sensual heat rising within them.
Seeing that Xie Ji was awake, he kissed him even more unrestrainedly, as if he wanted to brand Xie Ji with his own mark.
After being kissed firmly for several minutes, Xie Ji suddenly realized what was happening and pushed him away.
"Hmm... Ha! Lu Xunji!"
Lu Xunji obediently let the push go, narrowed his eyes at Xie Ji, and remained silent.
"Holy crap, I'm back to normal!" Xie Ji quickly touched himself up and down, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his soft fur had turned into smooth skin, and he wasn't wearing any clothes.
Xie Ji pulled the blanket next to him over himself and bent down to look for his clothes in the closet, but Lu Xunji suddenly grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him back to the bed.
"... Lu... Lu Xunji?" Xie Ji saw Lu Xunji's eyes and instinctively got goosebumps. "What are you doing?"
Lu Xunji didn't speak, but stretched out his long arm, pulled Xie Ji's hand to the headboard, and leaned down to kiss him again.
Their breaths mingled, Xie Ji grumbled that he hadn't brushed his teeth yet.
But Lu Xunji clearly didn't care.
"My darling..." Lu Xunji pulled out his trump card again, his fingertips sliding up Xie Ji's leg to his chest, letting out a sexy groan. "Help me."
Xie Ji: "..."
So on the first day after Xie Ji celebrated returning to human form, he was pinned down on the bed by Lu Xunji and roughly "helped each other out".
After finishing, Lu Xunji was not satisfied, but he did not continue, as Xie Ji could not bear it for the time being.
He got out of bed, his chest covered in sweat, and headed to the bathroom, bathed in the soft sunlight. He grabbed his clothes.
Xie Ji lay on the bed panting, and it took him a while to calm down. With a complicated expression, he got up, put on his clothes, and then took off his four-piece bedding set and threw it into the washing machine.
I read it once a day, that wretched Nantong.
Lu Xunji came out of the shower, his hair still wet, and picked up his backpack from the sofa. "I'm leaving."
Xie Ji: "..."
Fine, I'll leave then. Do I have to set off firecrackers for you?
Lu Xunji stood at the door, scanned the smart lock, and it beeped softly. "I'll be back early, around five in the afternoon."
Xie Ji straightened his back. "I have to go to class too, you don't need to tell me."
Lu Xunji lowered his raven-black eyelashes. "Mmm, come here, kiss me."
Xie Ji suddenly turned around. "No way, brother, we were kissing for over half an hour! Still kissing?"
"It's different." Lu Xunji stood still. "Kiss me."
He seemed determined not to leave until he personally attended the Xie Ji.
Xie Ji naturally knew what Lu Xunji was going to do today. According to what the girl said yesterday, Lu Xunji was going to participate in a very important assessment today.
Lu Xunji devoted a great deal of energy to this, and has been extremely exhausted these past few days.
Xie Ji stood up, walked to the door, tiptoed and gave Lu Xunji a quick kiss on the lips, muttering, "All you ever do is kiss, buddy, are your lips magnets?"
Lu Xunji her head and returned his gentle kiss. "I love you very much."
Then he looked at Xie Ji with hopeful eyes.
"..."
A dating style that makes straight men feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Okay, okay, I love you too, alright?"
Lu Xunji didn't mind Xie Ji's perfunctory attitude, and a smile appeared on his lips, "Okay, wait for me to come back."
Xie Ji saw Lu Xunji off, and after returning and sitting on the sofa for a while, there was a knock on the dormitory door.
He went to open the door, Jin Li was standing at the door, paused for a moment when she saw Xie Ji.
"What are you doing?"
Jin Li burst into tears and threw herself into Xie Ji's arms. "Waaaaah, Xie Ji! You've finally agreed to see me! These past few days, I've been knocking on your door, and it was always Lu Xunji who answered. You know, the Top Scorer Bro's face is really terrifying, it scared me to death, waaaaaah!!"
Xie Ji was both amused and exasperated. "You're so scary, yet you still knock!"
"Then I want to see you!" Jin Li rubbed against his clothes and said, "I thought you were angry with me and wouldn't play with me anymore. I was so worried these past few days. What have you been doing?"
Xie Ji thought for a moment and then said, "This is hard for me to explain to you. It's like this: a group of hairy alien creatures captured me. They insisted that I was handsome and wanted me to be their emperor. I said no, no, you're ruining my life! But they wouldn't listen. So I had no choice but to endure the humiliation and become emperor. Seven days later, I finally found a chance to escape, abandoning fame, fortune, and glory to come back to find you."
"..." Jin Li wiped away her tears. "You're teasing me again."
Xie Ji chuckled and ruffled Jin Li's curly hair, "Oh, not bad, now you can tell I was teasing you."
"Are you going to class today?" Jin Li asked softly. " Lu Xunji asked for a week off for you, but are you really sure you're okay missing a week of classes?"
Xie Ji packed his bag and followed Jin Li out. "We'll finish it later, let's go."
Jin Li followed beside him. "By the way, did you know about Lu Xunji taking the exam in a different department? Everyone at school has been talking about it lately! That Top Scorer Bro is really amazing. Not only did he switch departments, but the Command Department is so difficult, and he's only been in school for a few days, yet he passed the third-year exam for the Command Department through self-study, and with excellent grades!"
Xie Ji walked along the roadside, looked down and smiled, "Yes, I know."
He has always been outstanding.
"He's incredible," Jin Li exclaimed. "He surpassed everyone so easily."
Xie Ji remained silent.
Whether it was done lightly or not, others might not know, but Xie Ji knew.
Lu Xunji's efforts were never easy. To obtain something, he had to put in an equal amount of hard work and energy. He slept only four hours every night and studied as soon as he opened his eyes. Such strong perseverance and self-discipline are almost rare.
Although Xie Ji used to spend all day with Lu Xunji, he didn't know much about Lu Xunji's study habits. His biggest impression of Lu Xunji was that he would often make outrageous remarks and always loved his family.
But now, he saw another side of Lu Xunji. He was not the humble, love-seeking patient covered in dust; he was strong, self-disciplined, and unparalleled.
He certainly has the right to look down on everyone.
No wonder they usually look at people like dogs.
Damn, he's so handsome.
Xie Ji muttered to himself, recalling the way Lu Xunji had pinned him down on the bed and kissed him that morning, and his mouth went dry.
Indeed, power and influence are the best filter for a man.
Xie Ji sat down in the classroom. Everyone was holding a personal terminal and looking down at something. Xie Ji was a little curious and asked Jin Li, "What are they looking at?"
"Look where your roommate is," Jin Li whispered. "Today is the National Mecha Command and Single-Soldier Competition, a two-person team competition between command and individual combat majors. Everyone's paying close attention."
Xie Ji also turned on his personal terminal. "Can I see it too?"
Jin Li showed him the live broadcast of the match.
Xie Ji stared intently for two minutes, then turned to Jin Li and asked, "Where's Lu Xunji? I haven't seen him."
"Here," Jin Li pointed to the box next to her, "The number is 003. The live stream will show what Lu Xunji can see; his face won't be shown to protect the students' privacy and safety."
"Aww!" Xie Ji quickly grabbed his personal terminal and stared intently at the frame.
The viewpoint within that frame rotated rapidly, with instructions scrolling through the boxes below, all in English, Xie Ji couldn't understand.
Although I couldn't understand it, I was still happy to watch. By carefully listening to the small gasps of surprise around me, I could roughly figure out what the event was about.
"Damn, as expected of him! The speed at which he switches perspectives is already difficult for ordinary people, but he can actually memorize the terrain from every angle while switching perspectives every 0.3 seconds!"
"Seriously, not a single one of his commands was wasted; he toyed with the other side like they were monkeys."
"Isn't the senior student from the individual combat department who partners with him also very capable?"
"I know Shen Ting, a third-year student. She's pretty and has excellent individual performance. This is her first time participating in this competition, and she seems to be doing quite well."
"They work so well together, could they be a couple?"
"Who knows? I heard the top student has been spending all his time with that Shen Ting these past few days. She's so pretty, anyone would have some thoughts about being inseparable from her."
"Damn, this is a tonic! Shen Ting is my goddess!"
"Holy crap!!! Look at Academic God Lu! He anticipated the enemy's movements again and cut off the nuclear power plant in advance. In such complex terrain, the route he directed was almost a straight line, without taking an extra step!"
Xie Ji didn't understand it, but that didn't stop him from getting excited.
Everyone is talking about Lu Xunji.
A sense of pride welled up inside me.
Lu Xunji, you're famous now. I forgot the beginning and the end, but anyway, you're awesome!
The moment the game ended, everyone was still immersed in the exhilarating scene. Less than half an hour later, two names appeared side by side on the homepage of the campus network, highlighted in red and bold, with countless cheers.
