Chapter 28: Staying in the Dormitory

Over at the girls' dormitory.

When it comes to the skill of staying in bed, boys have to admit they are inferior to girls; of the six people in the room, five are lying in bed playing on their phones.

Only Wu Yue'er is sitting in front of the computer, wearing a white spaghetti-strap tank top and a pair of black shorts, pink-framed glasses perched on the bridge of her nose, her long legs spread apart, slowly opening League of Legends while chewing on a potato chip, looking to be in quite a good mood.

However, after seeing this line of text, she completely blew up, becoming exasperated.

"What the hell!"

Am I really that unlikable? Or did I badmouth Shen Yan in front of that girl, and now Shen Yan is angry? I didn't notice it at the time.

A roar drew the attention of the other five girls; Luo Qiqi raised her head and asked, "Yue'er, what happened?"

Wu Yue'er rattled off a long string of complaints about Shen Yan's jerk behavior.

"How can there be such a weirdo? I just asked if he was there, I didn't even provoke him, and he actually replied: 'Don't ask if I'm there, just state your business, and I'll consider whether I'm there or not.'"

"What is that supposed to mean!"

Upon hearing this, the girls all laughed until they were doubled over, and Chen Shanni was laughing so hard she couldn't catch her breath.

"Hahaha!"

"Pfft!"

"Giggle!"

Such a unique yet insulting reply—no wonder Wu Yue'er was jumping mad.

It's a good thing it wasn't her being retorted like that.

This guy's ability to be taciturn and infuriating has reached a new level; after finally stopping her laughter, Yu Youwei explained, "Yue'er, actually yours is considered pretty good. In the past, if any girl looked for Shen Yan, he wouldn't even bother with them. Being able to reply to you at all is already not bad; there's progress."

"So I should be thanking him then!"

Wu Yue'er was so angry she gritted her teeth; such a straight-up nerd! He'll definitely never find a girlfriend in his whole life.

Yu Youwei advised, you can try looking at it from another angle; Shen Yan isn't targeting you, he just doesn't like nonsense. If there's something to say, get straight to the point to avoid wasting each other's time.

Thinking about it that way really did make one feel a bit better; taking a deep breath, Wu Yue'er typed again: "Are you up? I heard from Lin Yang that you're really good at League of Legends, let's the three of us play together."

Shen Yan glanced at Lin Yang, who was already sitting at the computer, ready to go, and asked, "Lao Lin, you're ready to start without even eating?"

Lin Yang said it's raining so hard he's too lazy to go out, and by the way, Old Shen, share a cup of instant noodles with me, just make do with that.

"Give me one too!"

"I want one too!"

Tang Song, Zhu Baoping, Zheng Chuan, and Liu Haijun all spoke up in unison.

It was a good thing Shen Yan had considered the whole dormitory when he bought them, otherwise, there might not have been enough.

After distributing the noodles, Shen Yan took a cup of braised beef noodles to the laundry room in the dormitory building lobby, where there was a dedicated hot water dispenser; once the meal card was inserted, steaming boiling water flowed down from the faucet.

Returning to the room, Lin Yang had already taken the initiative to help download the YY voice chat; how sensible! He is a teachable student!

"Slurp! Slurp!"

Listening to the sound of delicious noodle-eating in her headphones, Wu Yue'er looked at the potato chips in her hand and suddenly felt they weren't tasty anymore.

"Shen Yan, do you have any more instant noodles there? Sell me two cups."

Shen Yan said there are six of you in the room, why not just send a representative out to buy food? It's nutritious and filling, what's so good about instant noodles?

That was actually a good idea; soon the girls' dormitory started playing rock-paper-scissors, and after a round of competition, Xiao Chuchu unfortunately lost and disappeared into the vast rain with an umbrella.

It had a sense of the desolation of a warrior who goes forth never to return.

After thinking about it, Shen Yan sent a message to Yu Youwei: "Do you have enough snacks there? I have spiced tofu, bread, cookies, egg yolk pastries, and milk here; should I bring you some?"

"Yes please! Taciturn, you're the best (heart emoji)"

"Then come down, and call me when you get to the entrance."

Ten minutes later, Yu Youwei returned to the room carrying a small bag of snacks; the girls had all gotten up and washed, and Luo Qiqi was combing her hair in front of the mirror, wearing an oversized long T-shirt with the hem covering her shorts, creating the visual effect of missing pants; seeing the bag of snacks, she couldn't help but tease: "Youwei, this childhood sweetheart of yours is really good to you; could it be that he likes you?"

Remembering the scene of the confession that afternoon, Yu Youwei's face turned slightly red, and she retorted, "How is that possible? Shen Yan and I grew up together; we're best friends. Isn't it normal for him to bring me snacks?"

At this moment, Yu Youwei's feelings were very subtle; she was both worried that Shen Yan hadn't let go yet, and afraid that Shen Yan had completely let go and would turn to be with other girls.

It was contradictory!

She didn't know why she was like this either.

However, judging by his behavior during this period, Shen Yan probably didn't like her anymore.

Yuan Mingqing was wearing a blue spaghetti-strap nightgown and walked out of the bathroom, looking slightly envious as she said, "If only there were a boy who could take care of me like that."

"That Tang Song seems to be interested in you; I heard he plays the guitar quite well, you could consider it." Wu Yue'er said with a face full of mockery.

While speaking, she felt her sitting posture was uncomfortable, so she put her left leg down and tilted to the left, crossed her right leg over it, straightened her leg, sucked in her abdomen, and sat up straight, as if she had undergone professional training.

Cultivate the outer form for elegance, cultivate the inner knowledge for humility.

In this way, it not only made her legs look longer but also made her look more elegant and refined.

"Hey! You're on voice chat, don't talk nonsense; it's so embarrassing if people hear you."

Looking at Yuan Mingqing's flushed face, Wu Yue'er stuck out her tongue cutely and said no more.

Open the data panel.

Looking at the data for each hero on the screen, Wu Yue'er's mouth fell open.

The hero Shen Yan was using, Twitch, had 10 kills and 0 deaths.

That's insane, isn't it!

Looking at Lin Yang's Tryndamere in the top lane, 3 kills and 2 deaths, and her own Tryndamere with 3 kills and 3 deaths, she was speechless.

At this moment, Shen Yan's voice came through the headphones: "I'm coming over, Tryndamere go up and bait them, Tryndamere, use your W only when the opponent is ready to run."

"Got it!"

Noticing the Twitch wrapping around from the brush, Lin Yang felt a surge of energy, raised his big sword, and charged up.

The script was set, and the plot developed without any surprises; after all, it was a low-tier match, and the opposing Rammus and Blitzcrank didn't even need to think when they saw someone coming to fight—they just went for it.

Then the mouse went for a mindless damage output, clicking 'A' to attack and moving, occasionally landing a critical hit, directly performing a disappearing health bar trick; seeing the situation turn sour, the Rammus and Blitzcrank were just about to run, but Tryndamere used a 'W', and they exploded on the spot.

"Double kill!"

"Legendary!"

Two more kills were collected by Shen Yan.

Although Wu Yue'er was feeling thrilled inside, she said, "Damn! You kill-stealing dog, don't you know how to let me have some gold?"

"Next time! Next time!"

"Why are you, a Tryndamere, building a Giant's Belt? Build critical strike items, Statikk Shiv plus Infinity Edge."

"Oh, oh, oh!"

"Triple kill!"

"Quadra kill!"

"Penta kill!"

After one match, as newbies, Wu Yue'er and Lin Yang were frantically absorbing knowledge while Shen Yan was frantically slaughtering over there; in the end, Wu Yue'er didn't even know how Shen Yan played, sneaking behind all five opponents while invisible, bombarding them with skills, then auto-attacking, auto-attacking, and auto-attacking again, with the damage exploding instantly.

Ace!

The 25-minute match ended.
