The next day at noon—
"Awesome! I'm convinced! Did you slam at least ten baskets in that game?"
Wang from the next dorm, holding a basketball, walked shoulder to shoulder with Gu Yu, his face unabashed with admiration.
During the just-finished basketball game, Gu Yu totally dominated the court!
No one could guard him at all!
Dunking like drinking water, he showed off a smooth Tomahawk spin to get past his opponents, making the girls in the audience scream repeatedly!
"Hey, no big deal! Too bad the basketball coach was watching the whole time, didn't give me a chance to show off my backboard dunks..."
Gu Yu chuckled. He had always been good at basketball, and now with his enhanced physique, playing basketball with his amateur buddies was no pressure at all.
In terms of stamina, speed, and strength, it was a complete blowout!
"Look behind you, there are several of your little fan girls! Their admiring gazes are so intense as if they want to devour you!"
"I also saw the school beauty from the air hostess class, aren't you going to take the chance to ask for her WeChat? It would be easy as pie!"
Wang gave a thumbs-up and then glanced back, elbowing Gu Yu with the arm that was holding the basketball, his face wearing an envious smile.
The morning basketball game really did let Gu Yu show off.
Even the belle of the air hostess class was hooked by Gu Yu!
Gu Yu laughed and shook his head: "No, I have a girlfriend."
Wang's expression froze for a moment, then he revealed a sly smile:
"No wonder you didn't add the young lady's WeChat, and why you weren't around yesterday afternoon for a round of League. Who is it? Which class's beauty is it?"
Most of the time, aside from coming out to play ball, he was gaming in the dorm and hadn't known that Gu Yu already had a girlfriend!
Just as Gu Yu was about to reply, he saw Lin Xinyue approaching from the back-left.
He gestured to Wang: "There, my girlfriend is coming?"
"Who? Let me have a look!"
Wang turned his head with a smile, and then he saw Lin Xinyue!
Lin Xinyue was wearing a flowing white silk dress today, like a Greek goddess who had stepped out of a painting!
Wang's eyes were glued to her!

Normally, Lin Xinyue's attire was either casual and sporty or smart and elegant, but today she unexpectedly changed into a gorgeous girl look!
This direct hit to his straight male heart was utterly overwhelming!
Getting closer and closer!
She was actually walking this way!
Should he greet her or not?
While Wang was conflicted, a discordant voice sounded beside him.
Gu Yu stretched out a hand, his face beaming with a smile: "Hi~ beautiful~ want to have lunch together?"
Wang's mouth twitched, thinking to himself that Gu Yu was really bold!
Could just calling her beautiful really get him a lunch date with the school beauty?
Impossible!
But the next second, his worldview was overturned.
When Lin Xiaohua heard Gu Yu's words, she blossomed like the spring flowers, smiling sweetly: "Sure~"
As she spoke, she also took Gu Yu's outstretched hand, leaning close to his side.
"Wang, let me introduce her, this is my girlfriend! Xinyue, say hello, this is Wang Dun, a friend from the dorm next door!"
"Ah, Wang, nice to meet you!"
Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue stood close together, looking very intimate.
"This, this, this..."
Wang was petrified on the spot, feeling as if he was dreaming!
Lin Xiaohua! The Haidong Goddess! When had she become Gu Yu's girlfriend?
This was more outrageous than if tomorrow's League headlines were: 'Da Sima heads to the pro league, performing the Ma Triangle Kill in front of Faker!'
"Wang, we're going to eat now!"
Gu Yu was already hungry, so after a quick word, he walked off to the cafeteria with Lin Xinyue.
"Damn it! What's there to eat! I'm full of dog food already!"
Watching Gu Yu and Lin Xiaohua head into the cafeteria together, Wang felt inexplicably choked up.
He went straight back to his dorm to eat instant noodles.
…
Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue queued up at the cafeteria window.
"Look! Are those guys your roommates?"
Lin Xinyue suddenly pointed at Yu Shutong and Qin Shan, who were approaching from the side.
The two of them were with their girlfriends, looking very close and intimate as they joked and laughed together.
"Yu, Qin! Over here, there's no one lining up behind me!"
Gu Yu waved at the two couples, who immediately changed direction and walked over.
"Heh heh! Lin Xiaohua looks really beautiful today! Laosi is truly blessed!"
Qin Shan, lining up behind Gu Yu, couldn't help but praise Lin Xinyue's outfit for the day.
The next second, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist.
He looked down to find his girlfriend's hand pinching his flesh through his clothes and slowly twisting...
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Let go! I was wrong, my goddess!"
Qin Shan quickly begged for mercy, causing everyone around them to barely contain their laughter.
Gu Yu was speechless, Laosan really is a typical straight guy!
Praising another girl's beauty in front of his own girlfriend...
His will to live got a score of zero, right?
Qin Shan's girlfriend turned away, pouting and ignoring him.
Yu Shutong, on the other hand, silently stepped back, trying to stay as far away from Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue as possible, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
Unlike Laosan, he had maxed out his survival instinct!
The three couples slowly queued up, and finally, it was Gu Yu's turn.
"The next person gets an extra scoop of braised pork! Use my meal card! Auntie, don't let your hand shake!"
The cafeteria auntie rolled her eyes at him as she pressed the amount.
After paying, Gu Yu found a large table, and the six of them sat down together for a meal.
He had just taken the first bite.
Suddenly, Gu Yu saw Boss Pu, Pu Tongren, walking into the cafeteria from the entrance, with messy hair and sleepy eyes, obviously having just woken up.
"Boss!"
Gu Yu called out.
Hearing the familiar voice, Pu Tongren rubbed his eyes vigorously and jogged to Gu Yu's location.
"You guys are eating already, huh?"
Enviously looking at his three roommates in pairs, he dug into his pocket, then his expression turned to one of awkwardness.
"Laosi, lend me your meal card, I forgot to bring mine when I left..."
"Get whatever you want!"
Gu Yu handed over his meal card casually.
"Awesome! I'm going for the spicy hot pot!"
Taking the card, Boss Pu scurried off to line up at the counter.
"Why does he look like he's just woken up? Didn't he go to class this morning?"
Lin Xinyue curiously asked after noticing that one of Pu Tongren's slippers was rubber and the other cotton.
He must have been really groggy!
"The Boss never attends PE class," replied Gu Yu as he ate. "Ning Chang, an ounce of flesh for a mile less run."
As he explained, Gu Yu glanced towards the queue and spotted Boss Pu wearing the mismatched slippers!
"Damn! Those are my cotton slippers!"
He was at a loss for words!
Really, there was nothing to be said!
All he could do was let it slide since he was the Boss, alas!
They chatted as they ate their meal.
"You're cutting my queue!"
"No, I'm not! I'm queuing for this window!"
"Drop dead!"
"Crap! Calm down, will you!"
As Gu Yu took Lin Xinyue's unwanted braised pork, he suddenly heard a commotion near the counter, followed by a loud bang. Then, to his shock, he heard Boss Pu's scream!
"Boom!"
"Ahh!!!"
Gu Yu quickly turned his head towards the noise and saw the selection freezer for the spicy hot pot toppled over, shattered glass all over the floor, and blood seeping out from under the freezer!
A girl was furiously smashing a food tray onto the freezer, yelling venomous words like "Drop dead! You deserve it!" as she continued her tirade, uncontainable even by the two janitresses.
Piecing together the familiar scream and the absence of their Boss, and then seeing the mismatched slippers poking out from under the freezer...
Gu Yu, Yu Shutong, and Qin Shan all stood up abruptly, their heads ringing with the sudden realization!
"Boss!"
