The atmosphere in the dormitory became strange since that brief kiss, like a dragonfly skimming over water. Early in the morning, Lin Yu got up and sat cross-legged on a chair. The screen of the phone facing him had turned black long ago, but he hadn't noticed at all.

Su Yi and Jiang Yu sat together, gently nibbling on each other's ears, as if intentionally avoiding Lin Yu. Every time Lin Yu turned his head, Su Yi would flash him a cheesy smile, causing Lin Yu to involuntarily get goosebumps all over his body.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A sudden and urgent knocking interrupted the conversation between Su Yi and Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu turned her head displeasedly and asked, "Who is it?"

"Ah...are you Senior? Hello, I'm looking for Lin Yu... There are only a few minutes left before the military training assembly, so I had to come up here to call him. I apologize for the disturbance." Although Gao Yuan stood outside the door, he couldn't help but feel nervous. After all, there were two quite influential individuals living in this dormitory. If he offended them right at the beginning of the school year, it would be disastrous.

"Ahh? Yes!" Lin Yu quickly stood up, narrowly avoiding hitting his head on the bed frame. The pain in his calves was almost completely gone. He put on his shoes and, trying to dodge Su Yi's gaze, rushed out as if escaping.

"Hurry, let's go!" Lin Yu immediately grabbed Gao Yuan's arm upon seeing him. However, Gao Yuan remained serious and greeted the two people through the crack in the door.

"Gao Yuan, right?" Su Yi smiled through the crack in the door and said, "Take good care of Lin Yu."

"You can rest assured, Senior, with me here, there won't be any problems!" Gao Yuan patted his chest confidently. On the side, Lin Yu was anxiously sweating, her heart pounding nervously, afraid that Su Yi would say or do something in front of their classmates again.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Since you like them so much, why don't I switch dormitories with you instead!" Lin Yu half dragged and half pulled Gao Yuan, slowly making their way downstairs.

"Hey, Lin Yu, didn't you say the seniors are pretty good? Why do you look so scared when I just greeted you?" Under the scorching sun, Gao Yuan was already as wilted as an eggplant, and his footsteps grew increasingly sluggish.

"This... wasn't it you who said we were going to be late? Why are you walking so slowly? Are you hoping we'll both be punished? Hurry up!" Lin Yu cast him a disdainful glance and ran anxiously towards the playground ahead.

"Dear students, it's an honor for us to become a temporary collective. In this week's time, I hope that each and every one of you will have the same iron will as Pavel Korchagin, just like a soldier!"

Lin Yu lifted his eyelids and tried to keep his chin up, making the small brim of his hat shield his eyes from the direct sunlight. He watched the spirited instructors ahead with a feeling of being on edge...

"Attention! Stand at ease!" The instructor's brows immediately knitted into a furrowed "川" character. Regardless of gender, every soldier in this formation stood with military bearing, not daring to move at all.

But among the children in this grade, how many are like Lin Yu, who grew up enduring hardships since childhood? In just a moment, several of them collapsed and were taken to the infirmary. The rest also started to stagger, cursing themselves for having a better constitution and not collapsing yet.

Lin Yu stood straight, motionless. Half an hour later, the tall figure next to him, Gao Yuan, who was also quite tall, couldn't bear the sweltering weather any longer and opened his mouth to pant for air.

"Our male classmates in Class 5 are all impressive, they are real men!" The instructor walked up to Lin Yu and nodded approvingly. Then, he clapped his hands and benevolently shouted, "Everyone! Sit down! Take a break for fifteen minutes!"

"Ah..." In the open-air tennis court at the south corner of the playground, Lin Yu's row of people began to wail. One after another, they fell onto each other, just like a row of dominoes.

Lin Yu, I have to say, you're really something... Have you practiced before?" Gao Yuan, taking advantage of his long legs, leaned against the trunk of a big tree to cool off, admiringly scrutinizing Lin Yu, who appeared thin and weak.

"Used to it since childhood, this bit of heat is nothing." Lin Yu chuckled and took a deep breath.

Two straight-forward guys leaned against each other, either comparing muscles or talking about girls. Gao Yuan and Lin Yu were discussing a few girls from their platoon who looked pretty good, attracting a few glances from the girls across from them.

"Lin Yu, do you know that the president of your dormitory, Su Yi, is a homosexual?" Gao Yuan suddenly changed the topic.

"Ah?" Lin Yu's body stiffened, pretending to remain calm as she asked, "How did you know?"

Aside from the teacher, most of the students in school seem to know about this matter. It seems that a senior schoolmate had a crush on him, but he said it himself.

"Eh... Hehe..." Lin Yu squinted his eyes.

"Hey, do you know that you're living with him?" Gao Yuan nudged Lin Yu's arm and said.

"I... I wouldn't gossip about other people's personal matters." Lin Yu's gaze flickered as she turned her head.

In the corner of his vision, there was a figure slowly approaching him. Lin Yu instinctively looked up, and that arrogant face suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Damn it! This is during military training... What is Su Yi doing here?

With a slight glance, Lin Yu pretended not to see and turned her head back, saying, "Hey, Gao Yuan, which girl do you think looks the best among us?"

"Instructor, hello, I'm Su Yi, the president of the Student Union of this school. Can I bother you for a few minutes of training time?" Su Yi's lips curved into a handsome smile as he handed the instructor a bottle of water.

"No problem," the instructor showed a rare smile.

Wow... It's Chairman Su... He's really handsome...

"Even though everyone says he is gay, I still can't help but feel attracted to him..."

"Yeah, yeah..."

Listening to the girls whisper excitedly and lower their heads, Lin Yu turned her back to them and prayed in her heart, "Amitabha... Please, don't come over, please..."

Under the gaze of the crowd, Su Yi slowly walked to the front of Lin Yu. Deep inside, Lin Yu wailed, "What more do I have to do? How much more!"

Even Gao Yuan was looking at himself with a bewildered expression. Lin Yu felt even more like he had wandered into a wolf's den, and escaping seemed even more difficult!

Su Yi elegantly squatted down and unhesitatingly lifted Lin Yu's foot.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Lin Yu lowered her voice, as if she could feel the scorching hot gazes around her that were hotter than the blazing sun.

"I'm worried about your leg, come and have a look." Su Yi lifted her head, her warm smile directed towards Lin Yu, attracting a few envy-filled stares.

But only Lin Yu could see it, how sinister and cunning his smile was.

"My leg is fine! Don't stay here... hurry, go back!" Lin Yu curled up her legs, her pleading gaze turned to Gao Yuan, but he was completely ignoring her while earnestly admiring the white clouds.

"Don't move!" Su Yi lowered her head and quickly rolled up Lin Yu's trousers. She put the plaster that she had brought onto the half of his calf, which was both bluish and purplish.

Lin Yu didn't beat around the bush and lowered her voice angrily, saying, "After you finish, you can just leave, right?"
