After lunch, the four returned to their dormitory, where Yang Jian eagerly brought out his desktop computer.
âGuys, after a good meal, letâs play some games, how about StarCraft online?â Yang Jian exclaimed excitedly.
âYou guys go ahead, Iâve got some work to do,â Yi Feng said, pulling out a laptop from his backpack.
Ke Yizhou, the chubby roommate, was stunned, âHoly crap, Brother Feng, you have an IBM ThinkPad T20! Thatâs really expensive! How much did you pay for it?â
âIt cost over thirteen thousand yuan. This type of business laptop is suited for work, not for gaming,â Yi Feng explained with a smile.
This laptop was considered a pioneering model in the T series, featuring a titanium alloy body and weighing only 2.2 kg. Despite having only 512 MB of RAM and a 12 GB hard drive, it was quite outstanding among the mainstream machines of its time.
âWow, Brother Feng, your family must be pretty well-off!â Ke Yizhou said enviously.
Yang Jian also looked on with envy, âThatâs a nice laptop. Itâs a pity my dad wouldnât buy me one since I already had a desktop.â
Yi Feng glanced at him and chuckled, âBrother Yang, couldnât you just take a bit from your monthly allowance to buy one?â
Yang Jian pulled a face, helplessly saying, âYou think my dad is that generous? Dream on. He said beyond the fixed monthly allowance, he wonât give me any more money. If I want to spend more, I have to earn it myself.â
Ke Yizhou curiously asked, âMy dad only gives me five hundred yuan a month. How much does your dad give you?â
âNot much, just seven thousand yuan,â Yang Jian said, trying to impress.
Ke Yizhou: ââ¦â¦â
Sun Tugang: ââ¦â¦â
âLetâs play Fight the Landlord!â Ke Yizhou suddenly shouted, embracing the moment loudly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAlright, letâs play!â Yi Feng joined the game.
Sun Tugang clapped and cheered them on from the side.
Finally, under the benevolent gazes of his roommates, Yang Jian decided that tomorrowâs breakfast treat would be beef noodles, the kind with an extra serving of meat.
Ke Yizhou also had a computer. He set it up, connected to the power and the internet, and started browsing various chat rooms and the school forum.
âMy goodness! Incredible!â he suddenly exclaimed.
Yang Jian, playing games at another table, jumped, âHoly crap, Fatty, what are you screaming about? You scared me!â
âCome and see, come and see, big news at school! The forum is blowing up!â Ke Yizhou shouted excitedly.
âBrother Feng, come take a look!â
Yi Feng, who was replying to emails for work, kept typing, âIâm busy right now, maybe later.â
Yang Jian didnât pay him any mind, casually saying, âWhat big news could it be? Probably just someone winning a big prize at some event.â
âNo, no, itâs a beauty! Our school has a new campus beauty!â
âHoly crap! Sheâs gorgeous! This beauty, truly divine!â Ke Yizhou stared at the screen, utterly captivated.
Hearing about a beauty, Yang Jian abandoned his game and dashed over, peering at the screen, instantly mesmerized by the photo displayed.
The screen showed a beautiful woman in a blue dress, with long hair fluttering, standing gracefully by the roadside.
Especially her fair skin and stunningly beautiful face were particularly eye-catching.
âMy God! A top-tier beauty indeed, deserving of the title of the new campus beauty!â Yang Jian also exclaimed.
Ke Yizhou, with a lovestruck expression, said, âSheâs the most beautiful girl Iâve ever seen!â
Yang Jian nodded in agreement, âRight, Iâve seen countless women, and compared to them, she definitely ranks first!â
âHoly cow, the entire school forumâs pages are filled with her photos and discussion threads!â
âIndeed, beauties have influence. The beasts of our school forum are way too excited!â
âBrother Feng, come take a look!â Ke Yizhou kept waving him over.
After sending the email, Yi Feng finally stood up and walked over, taking a glance.
Huh, isnât that little Xixi?
Didnât expect such a big fuss, her name as the new campus beauty seems set to spread across the school.
âHow about it, Brother Feng, isnât this beauty stunning?â Ke Yizhou smirked.
âMy girlfriend is indeed very beautiful,â Yi Feng nodded and smiled.
Yang Jian and Ke Yizhou immediately turned to give him a disdainful look.
âCut it out, sheâs your girlfriend? Brother Feng, youâre shameless!â Ke Yizhou expressed his disdain.
Yang Jian snorted and laughed, âIf sheâs your girlfriend, then my girlfriend is Sister Ziyi!â
âThen my girlfriend is Vivi!â Ke Yizhou chimed in.
Yang Jian patted Yi Feng on the shoulder, speaking in a mock-serious tone, âBrother Feng, itâs normal for young men to fantasize, I understand. But you canât just say sheâs your girlfriend after seeing a photo.â
âThatâs not right, itâs inappropriate. This isnât fantasizing, itâs delusional.â
Yi Feng said earnestly, âShe really is my girlfriend.â
âPfft! Believe you, my foot!â
Yang Jian and Ke Yizhou shouted in unison.
Ke Yizhou asked with contempt, âBrother Feng, do you think weâre idiots? That easy to fool?â
Yi Feng, unable to help but laugh, shrugged, âIf you donât believe it, thatâs fine. Iâm too lazy to explain.â
Yang Jian snickered, âHey, Brother Feng, Iâll send you the photo later. You can dream more realistically tonight!â
