After the crowd dispersed, dormitory 222 was a mess. This was all because Huang Xiaochuan had recruited them, and he had even provided them with sunflower seeds, peanuts, candy, and soda. Since he was the one who recruited them, he naturally had to clean up the mess.

Huang Xiaochuan miserably swept up the trash with a broom, muttering, "Damn, why are these sunflower seeds so easy to crack? Especially Old Jiang, that son of a bitch ate at least a quarter of the sunflower seeds he sold me. He's making money off me while eating the sunflower seeds he sells me, I'd be happy to do that!"

Ding Yi, standing to the side, gloated, "You deserve it! Who told you to be so foolishly generous?"

"Get out of here, you're not helping and you're just making fun of me." Huang Xiaochuan chased Ding Yi onto the bed and carefully swept the spot where he had just been standing.

Fortunately, Chen Zhe, Wu Duo, and Zhang Gaolei helped him, which made the process much faster.

Wu Duo asked, "Xiao Chuan, where do you get all these ideas from?"

What kind of question is that? I'm a reborn person!

Huang Xiaochuan, leaning on a broom in one hand and stretching the other into the distance, said sentimentally, "As Mr. Lu Xun once said, 'A person's thoughts can only go as far as they can walk!'"

Wu Duo frowned, pondering for a long time, "When did Mr. Lu Xun say this? How come I don't know?"

Huang Xiaochuan gave him a disdainful look: "Tch! Mr. Lu Xun said so much, of course you wouldn't know it all."

This sentence kept the rest of 222 racking their brains all night. What the hell did Mr. Lu Xun say? Why did that bastard Huang Xiaochuan say he knew it, but we didn't?

Tuesday, March 12th, is Arbor Day.

On this day, the school organized an event where first- and second-year students participated in a tree-planting activity, organized by class.

Huang Xiaochuan's class was tasked with planting five ginkgo trees. For the boys, this was no big deal; it was just a game of digging holes and burying trees!

Wu Duo and the deputy class monitor Zhai Xi agreed that the girls would be responsible for carrying water and the boys would be responsible for digging holes and planting trees.

Just as everyone was working enthusiastically, Ding Yi suddenly asked, "Where's Hao Zhidu?"

The students in dormitory 222 looked up and searched around. Sure enough, where was everyone?

Ding Yi, who was helping the female classmates carry water, asked loudly, "Class monitor, where's Hao Zhidu?"

Wu Duo heard this and shouted back from afar, "He asked the counselor for leave, saying he had diarrhea."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi muttered under his breath, "What nonsense about diarrhea! He must have run off somewhere to slack off. That son of a bitch, he seems like a completely different person since he came back after the New Year."

However, Ding Yi didn't misunderstand Hao Zhidu. It wasn't that Hao Zhidu was being lazy and didn't participate in group activities; it was mainly because he had lost all interest in going to school.

The price of Japanese porn has dropped from 39 before the Lunar New Year to 22. This has caused Hao Zhi to lose 6800. Before the Lunar New Year, he had 15,600 in assets, but now it has almost shrunk by half.

He was extremely conflicted; he couldn't bear to sell, but he was afraid the price would drop even further if he didn't.

After much deliberation, I lost 6800 and sold all the Japanese pornographic films I had, getting 8800 in cash. It was a total rip-off.

Seeing the booming market for bronze chariots and horses, he exchanged his 8800 for 550 miniature sheets of bronze chariots and horses. His cost price was 16 yuan per sheet, and he hoped to make up for some of his losses from the bronze chariots and horses.

Huang Xiaochuan and the others knew the current situation, since they went to Lu Gong's place every week. However, with Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi's reassurance, the other students in room 222 did not panic. On the contrary, Hao Zhi, who had left dormitory 222, lost the support of the others and started to fight alone instead of in a team.

After the second class on the afternoon of Arbor Day, Huang Xiaochuan went to see Wang Deyi for the fourth time.

"Hello, Professor Wang!"

The old man casually remarked, "If you don't bother me, I'll be fine!"

Huang Xiaochuan was speechless again. This old man's sharp tongue was just as sharp as his own! He could only watch helplessly as the old man left.

"Damn it, let's call it a day and fight again tomorrow. I don't believe it!" Huang Xiaochuan's stubborn temper was fully unleashed.

No sooner had I seen the old man off than my pager on my waist started vibrating at an inopportune moment.

Huang Xiaochuan found a place to return the call; it turned out to be Yu Wei.

"Hey! You surnamed Huang, when are you going to deliver on your promise of a full set of Adidas clothes?"

Damn, does he think he can just call someone "brother-in-law" and expect to get something in return? What a pipe dream!

"I'll give you one chance to correct it, otherwise forget Adidas, you won't get a single thing."

"Damn it, you're really getting cocky, huh? I haven't even settled accounts with you yet! I treated you like a friend, but you've been eyeing me as your brother-in-law all this time. Are you even human?"

"Hey, hey, hey! You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Your sister and I are in love and perfectly matched. You're just a byproduct of our relationship. Who told you to be my girlfriend's brother!" Huang Xiaochuan retorted without any politeness.

"Then why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"Why would I tell you I'm dating my sister? Besides, we agreed before that you had to promise me something, and now that the mystery is out, it's this thing, so you can't go back on your word!"

"What did I promise you?"

"Let me remind you, what did we say last summer when you asked me to cook lobster for you? I told you to promise me anything, right? As long as it's not illegal or against the law, it's fine, right?"

"Damn, you already had your eye on my sister back then? You've been hiding your feelings pretty well!"

"Alright! We've come this far, calling me brother-in-law, would it kill you?"

"No way. As long as you don't marry my sister, I won't call you brother-in-law." Yu Wei was still holding on to his last bit of stubbornness.

Huang Xiaochuan was amused and annoyed: "Hey! How dare you say that? I'll go find your Tang Yuan later and see if he calls me brother-in-law!"

Huang Xiaochuan's move was tantamount to a fatal blow. Yu Wei stubbornly refused to call him "brother-in-law," but Tang Yuan would definitely be willing. Huang Xiaochuan had helped Tang Yuan a great deal back then, and now that they were even closer, Tang Yuan would certainly be willing to call Huang Xiaochuan "brother-in-law."

Moreover, Tang Yuan is definitely on the phone with Yu Wei right now. The two of them are inseparable, and Huang Xiaochuan could guess that even with his toes.

Sure enough, Tang Yuan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother-in-law!"

Tang Yuan pressed her ear against Yu Wei's to listen to their phone call. When she heard Huang Xiaochuan mention her, she couldn't help but lend a hand!

"Hey!" Huang Xiaochuan laughed so hard his eyes were almost closed.

Yu Wei, on the other end of the phone, felt utterly humiliated and so angry that he didn't even bother to strike with the bamboo pole. He angrily shouted, "I'm hanging up! I'm hanging up!" and then hung up the phone. He wanted to have a serious discussion with Tang Yuan about this issue, as it concerned his reputation.

A few days later, on Saturday afternoon, it was Wang Deyi's class again, and Huang Xiaochuan came again. The old man was helpless against this persistent pest.

He's a promising talent, but he's really shameless. However, that kind of persistence is necessary for academic pursuits.

However, the old man spoke up today: "Young man surnamed Huang, you are only allowed to listen in my class today, but you are not allowed to ask any questions, or I will kick you out."

Huang Xiaochuan: "???"

The classroom erupted in laughter. It was a rare sight to see Huang Xiaochuan get the short end of the stick, so now was the perfect time to tease him.
