Chapter 42 (1/2)

Zhao Yuan, Zheng Kai, Wang Xiang and their new friends kept playing basketball until the evening. They really enjoyed hanging out together and decided to go singing at a karaokea together tonight. They invited their friends to join them, thus all the girls of Dorm No. 213 and all the guys from Dorm No. 216 came to the karaokea, except Lin Wenxi. Shu Xiaoman was surprised that Lin Wenxi did not come and asked, “Where is Lin Wenxi?”

“Now, he’s a sleeping beauty in his bed,” Zhao Yuan teased smilingly while thinking, “Lin Wenxi has really crossed the line this time. I’ll continue ignoring him until I return to the dorm tonight to tell him everything.”

The guys and the girls had a good time singing, drinking and playing games at the karaokea. When the guys tipsily returned to their dorm late at night, they could not find Lin Wenxi anywhere or get through to him on the phone. Neither did they find any note left by him. Zheng Kai did not consider this a big deal, but Zhao Yuan was worried to death when he noticed that Lin Wenxi had not touched the lunch food on the table at all. He was so frightened that he immediately sobered up and urged Zheng Kai and Wang Xiang to look for Lin Wenxi together with him. As such, the guys hurriedly walked out of their dorm again.

They searched all the places on the university campus, which were frequented by Lin Wenxi, such as the bridge, the library and the piano room, and even went out of the university to look for him. Nevertheless, they still failed to find him. When they returned to their dorm again, Zhao Yuan looked worried and dejected and said, “We need to call the police.” Zheng Kai thought that Zhao Yuan was making a fuss about a trifle and said, “Come on, he’s an adult now. He knows that he has to be responsible for himself, and he doesn’t have to tell you everything about himself. Don’t be so worried!”

“I agree with Brother Kai,” Wang Xiang echoed.

“He didn’t have lunch or receive any of our calls. As his roommates, we need to care about his safety. Do you think that everyone is like you, who will probably survive after being thrown downward from the 11th floor of a building?” Zhao Yuan retorted impatiently.

“Well, brother Yuan has a point too,” echoed Wang Xiang. Zheng Kai raised his fist upon hearing that and immediately scared Wang Xiang away.

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan slammed his head heavily and shouted, “No, this is no good!” With these words, he ran out of the dorm again.

“What? Are you serious?” Zheng Kai felt helpless and tired out, but he still ran after Zheng Kai. So did Wang Xiang. The next moment, the three boys were stunned and stopped at the door. They saw an exceptionally pretty boy walking toward them with sleepy eyes.

The boy they saw was Gu Xi.

“Why did you come here?” Zheng Kai could not help but frown.

“Why can’t I come here if you can come?” Gu Xi could not help but smile sweatly at Zheng Kai. “It’s been a while.”

“I’m busy now. Let’s talk later,” Zheng Kai said, ready to leave.

“You guys are really noisy. Now everyone knows that someone in your dorm is missing. Acctually, he’s lying on my bed now. He’s just too embarrassed to return to your dorm,” Gu Yan said smiling and pointed toward his dorm.

Zheng Kai was rendered speechless. After a while, he could not help but curse, “F*ck!”

Gu Xi said with a smile, “Don’t just say that. If I give you a chance, are you willing to sleep with me?”

“Whew, you’re talking like this again. I have nothing to say to you!” Zheng Kai said and then rushed back to his dorm.

Gu Xi kept smiling and looked at Wang Xiang. Wang Xiang rubbed his hands together and said, “You know brother Kai just can’t understand your humor. Don’t mind it.”

After that, Gu Xi watched Wang Xiang go back to his dorm and whispered to himself, “I got used to it a long time ago. If you don’t want me to say it, I won’t say it anymore.”

Zhao Yuan strutted into Gu Xi’s dorm and dragged Lin Wenxi out. Lin Wenxi kept his head down and remained silent. When Zhao Yuan was about to flare up, he saw students of the other dorms come out and watch them. He suppressed his anger and dragged Lin Wenxi to a staircase. He asked grumpily, “Where did you hide?”

Lin Wenxi, who had looked so embarrassed a moment ago, suddenly became confident and said, “Did I hide? I just found the toilet in our dorm somewhat stinky and went to sleep with Gu Xi. Did I have to ask for your permission to do that?”

Zhao Yuan was stuck for words and then he raised another question. “Why didn’t you eat your lunch?”

“I just couldn’t eat it!”

“You really overdo your acting!”

“Anyhow, that’s none of your business!”
