I'm in Senior Year, and the System Says I'm Going on a Blind Date with My Childhood Sweetheart

"Fucking school, go to hell! To the fucking school administration, I’m hunting your horse tonight!"

As soon as Zhou Shaojie entered the classroom, he offered his most sincere greetings to the school administration.

"Excellent. It’s the Horse Hunter. We’re saved."

Shen Yuan clapped his hands, then asked Zhou Shaojie, "Have you ever considered that the school administrators might not have horses?"

Zhou Shaojie’s brow furrowed.

"Ssst—"

Evidently, Shen Yuan’s question had touched upon a blind spot in the Horse Hunter’s knowledge.

Zhou Shaojie looked at Shen Yuan and asked doubtfully, "Then how do you know the school administrators don’t have horses?"

"’Because I’m his dad.’"

"’Authoritative.’"

Zhou Shaojie expressed his agreement and headed for his seat.

Unlike Shen Yuan, Zhou Shaojie’s clothes were soaked in many places.

"Fuck, Yuan, you’re not wet at all?"

"Disposable raincoat, umbrella, rain boots. Guaranteed to stay dry."

Zhou Shaojie glanced down and saw the "matching couple’s" rain boots on Shen Yuan’s and Li Zhi’s feet.

"You absolute bastard!"

As time passed, more and more students filled the classroom.

Every person who came in complained about the school.

After all, the feeling of being soaked to the bone was truly awful.

What was even worse than being soaked was having to go to school in such a downpour.

Yang Yishui felt the same way.

Of all the luck, a typhoon day. And of all the luck, one of her morning reading sessions.

Yang Yishui felt she shouldn’t have chosen English. Otherwise, she could still be cozied up in her warm bed.

The moment she entered the classroom, Yang Yishui felt a wave of resentment, and she quickly blended right into it.

But when Yang Yishui walked to her seat between Shen Yuan and Li Zhi, she broke into a grin.

The Eldest Female Cousin knocked on Shen Yuan’s and Li Zhi’s desks. As the two childhood friends looked on curiously, she stuck out her long leg.

Shen Yuan took one look and chuckled.

All three of them were wearing black rain boots.

It was just that under the fluorescent lights, the yellow non-slip soles of Shen Yuan’s boots looked a little out of place.

Once the morning study session ended, the students were forced to think about their stomachs.

They could either choose to starve or brave the downpour to forage for food.

As the crowd hesitated before the curtain of rain, Li Haotian stood up.

"Anyone need me to grab them food? I can only get simple stuff."

The words had barely left his mouth when several boarding students spoke up.

"Godfather! I do, I do!"

"Father! Me too!"

"Get some for me, I want some too!"

Seeing the endless stream of "sons" emerging in the classroom, Li Haotian nodded.

"One at a time. Write what you want on a sticky note, stick it on your meal card, and give it to me."

The boys, squawking with hunger, scrambled back to their seats to grab sticky notes.

At that moment, Li Haotian took the raincoat Shen Yuan had given him out of a plastic bag and carefully put it on.

"Haotian! Let me go with you! You won’t be able to carry it all by yourself!" The speaker was Yao Junhao.

A smile appeared on Li Haotian’s face when he saw Yao Junhao stand up.

As Class 15’s two resident fitness gurus, Li Haotian and Yao Junhao’s daily routine involved competing to see who could do push-ups for a longer time in their dorm room.

They didn’t even bother with reps anymore; they just competed on time.

It was purely a hobby; they weren’t student athletes.

Li Haotian pulled another raincoat from the plastic bag and gave it to Yao Junhao. "Take this. The rain’s heavy today."

Yao Junhao took the raincoat and nodded.

After collecting the meal cards for everyone in class who needed breakfast, Li Haotian asked one more time before turning and leaving the classroom with Yao Junhao. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Shen Yuan stood in the hallway, watching Brother Haojie’s back disappear into the curtain of rain. He clapped Zhou Shaojie on the shoulder.

"Jie, no wonder he’s ’Brother Haojie,’ and you’re just... Ah Jie."

"Dude, come on, have you seen Brother Haojie’s physique?"

Ah Jie flexed his own scrawny biceps. "But don’t be fooled by how skinny I am. Me and Brother Haojie, it’s a 30-70 split. He throws three punches, and they’ll be holding my funeral on the seventh day."

Shen Yuan’s mouth twitched.

Just then, Sun Xiansheng, the newly-minted president of the Wild History Association, sauntered over, looking clearly disturbed.

"What’s wrong, Teacher Hou?" Shen Yuan asked.

"Looks like he’s been logging too many flight hours."

Sun Xiansheng waved his hand and said listlessly, "I want to change dorm rooms."

"Huh?" Shen Yuan and Ah Jie quickly leaned in, sensing that something was afoot.

After all, for a guy, wanting to switch dorm rooms was not something one would normally do.

"What’s the situation? Spill it."

Sun Xiansheng looked at their curious gazes, swallowed hard, his expression filled with terror.

"I... I was so stupid, really."

’A classic Xianglin’s Wife opening.’

"It was already lights out when it started raining yesterday."

"It was raining so hard, and I remembered my clothes were still hanging outside, so I went to get them. But who would have known that when I sat up..."

Sun Xiansheng paused, covering his mouth as he looked at Shen Yuan and Zhou Shaojie with a mournful expression.

He held up two fingers. "I saw... Ah Shuai and Old Zhang... facing me and..."

Sun Xiansheng made a loose fist with his right hand and pumped it a couple of times.

"SOB SOB SOB! Brother Jie! Lao Yuan! It was terrifying!!"

"I only knew that in the dorm next door, Haotian and the PE rep work out every night, getting their whole dorm to train with them. I thought *they* were the beefy bros, that *they* were gay. I was scared!"

"But I never expected we had them in our dorm too! And doing it in secret!"

"Jie! Yuan! I trusted them! I thought of them as my brothers! I confidently entrusted my back to my brothers, but I never imagined my brothers would be ’sweating’ at my back!"

Shen Yuan and Ah Jie pictured the scene, and a chill ran down both their spines.

’Damn it, if you woke up in the middle of the night to a scene like that, how could you ever get a good night’s sleep again?’

Shen Yuan couldn’t help but shiver.

The very next second, two boys charged over to Sun Xiansheng’s side and hauled him up by the arms.

Yang Shuai roared, "You motherfucker, we were comparing sizes, what the hell are you getting worked up about! You just happened to be across from us!"

Sun Xiansheng struggled, protesting, "Then why weren’t you facing each other! Why did you have to be facing me!"

"A gay person thinks everyone is gay!"

Shen Yuan and Ah Jie watched Sun Xiansheng get dragged away, then glanced at each other.

Ah Jie said seriously, "Yuan, I’m kinda thinking I want to live in the dorms now."

"I don’t want to at all."

’What a joke. It’s not like Shen Yuan was brain-dead. Why would he want to live in the dorms?’

’Was he after the comfortable school beds? Or the stray cats on campus?’

Ah Jie glanced at Shen Yuan, hesitated for a moment, then said, "In that case, I don’t want to either."

Shen Yuan immediately took a large step back. "You damn gay."

Ten minutes later, the fitness duo of Class 15 returned to the classroom.

Water was still dripping from their blue raincoats as Li Haotian and Yao Junhao each carried a large plastic bag in one hand.

Though the bags weren’t filled with some priceless treasure, the word "Father" seemed to glow brightly above their heads.

How to describe that feeling?

The word "cool" simply didn’t do it justice!

During this small respite from the downpour, Shen Yuan received news from the Holy Grail War.

Ah Jie stood at the podium, his expression grave. "Based on the results of the second phase of the Holy Grail War, I regret to announce that the Sugar Tyrant, Assam, has lost this Holy Grail War by a margin of two points."

"The penalty for the loser is the same as last time."

"Next, we will enter the third phase of the Holy Grail War! You have one month to prepare! The winner will be decided by the average scores on the second monthly exam!"

Ah Jie extended his arm, holding up two fingers.

"Two factions will be eliminated! Let’s wait and see who they are!!"
