Happy times are always short. After having breakfast with Furina and Xiao Xiao and chatting for a while, Huo Yuhao returned to the dormitory building alone.
The midday sun filtered through the lush leaves on both sides of the road, casting dappled light and shadows on him. Recalling the heartwarming scene just now, a smile unconsciously tugged at the corners of his mouth. Before Furina appeared, he had never imagined that he could possess such a peaceful and wonderful campus life.
Just as he was immersed in this warmth, he arrived at the dormitory door. To his surprise, the dormitory door was left slightly ajar. Huo Yuhao was startled at first, then realized that his roommate, whom he had never met, had finally arrived.
He gently pushed the door open, and just at that moment, a young man walked out of the room. The two met eyes and couldn't help but freeze for a moment.
This young man was extremely handsome, with skin so fair it was almost translucent. Most eye-catching were his pale pink-blue eyes, like the reflection of early spring cherry blossoms on a lake, clear yet with a touch of dreaminess. His short hair of the same color was neatly combed back, accentuating his refined features. Even having seen a handsome youth like Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao had to admit that the appearance of this peer before him was indeed even more outstanding.
If Furina were here, she would definitely recognize at a glance that this "young man" was actually Wang Dong dressed as a boy.
"Who are you?" Huo Yuhao asked instinctively.
Wang Dong frowned slightly, his eyes carrying a hint of impatience and arrogance: "Move aside." His voice was crisp, yet it carried an unquestionable tone of command.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, but still stepped aside to clear the way. Wang Dong walked past him, bringing with him a faint, refreshing fragrance. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned back to look at Huo Yuhao: "You are also in this dormitory, right?" Without waiting for Huo Yuhao to answer, he continued on his own: "Seeing that you have cleaned the dormitory very well, I will allow you to stay with me for the time being."
Wang Dong raised his slender fingers, and one rule after another came out: "But I have a few rules you must remember: First, you are not allowed to bring people into the dormitory casually; Second, you are not allowed to walk around the dormitory naked and annoy people; Third, you are not allowed to snore when sleeping at night; Fourth, do not disturb me; Fifth, from now on, you are responsible for cleaning the dormitory, but do not touch my bed." He raised his chin slightly, "Did you hear clearly?"
Looking at Wang Dong's high-and-mighty appearance, a nameless anger suddenly surged in Huo Yuhao's heart. The memories of being bullied all those years at the Dukes Mansion instantly flooded his mind; he detested this kind of self-righteous attitude the most.
Since joining the Axis Cult, most of the people he had encountered were gentle and polite, and he hadn't met such an arrogant person in a long time. Wang Dong's posture couldn't help but remind him of the detestable face of Dai Huabin.
Although Furina had repeatedly instructed him to get along well with his roommate, facing such an attitude, Huo Yuhao felt there was no need to blindly tolerate it.
"Why should I listen to you?" Huo Yuhao asked coldly in return, "Who do you think you are?"
Wang Dong snorted, a flash of disdain in his pink-blue eyes: "If you don't listen to me, I will beat you out. If you don't believe me, just try."
This sentence completely ignited the anger in Huo Yuhao's heart. He straightened his body, which had been leaning slightly forward, and met Wang Dong's gaze firmly: "Let's try then, let's go outside."
Seeing Huo Yuhao not backing down at all, Wang Dong laughed instead. His smile was very beautiful, the corners of his lips slightly upturned, revealing a row of neat, pearly white teeth. However, the disdain and contempt contained in that smile only made the fire of anger in Huo Yuhao's heart burn even more fiercely.
"I still don't know your name." Wang Dong asked contemptuously, his tone carrying a hint of condescension.
Huo Yuhao responded in a deep voice: "Before asking for someone else's name, shouldn't you report your own first?"
"Wang Dong." He shrugged indifferently, as if the name itself represented some kind of privilege.
