Sun Qi was even more confused, "Homosexual?" 　　Chen Mo couldn't help but rub his forehead. 　　He now believes what Lao Gou said: that this matter would eventually spread throughout the school without any doubt. 　　Seeing that the two were simply confused and nothing more, Chen Mo explained, "It's not about moving out, it's just about changing dorm rooms. There are empty beds in the experimental class dorms right now." 　　"Ah," Sun Qi said dejectedly, "Do we really have to move?" 　　Chen Mo also wanted to ask if they really had to move. 　　The suspicion deepened, especially when she saw the scattered things on her desk, the two pairs of shoes that weren't completely dry on the windowsill, and the clothes on the bed that she hadn't had time to wash before leaving yesterday. 　　I took out my phone, took two pictures, found the profile picture I had just added, and clicked send. 　　Silence is not golden, it's your grandfather: [Image] 　　Silence is not golden, it's your grandfather: [Image] 　　Silence is not golden, it's your grandpa: [Do you know what's the cruelest thing for someone who really dislikes tidying up? It's moving dorm rooms.] 　　The other party seemed busy with something and didn't reply for about five minutes. 　　XSY: [Don't tell me you haven't even started yet?] 　　XSY: [Image] 　　XSY: [What's that in the corner of your picture?] 　　Chen Mo replied instantly. 　　"Silence is not golden, you're nothing": [You have poor eyesight, you're nothing.] 　　XSY: [No smoking on 413.] 　　XSY: [You better not let me see this even once.] 　　Chen Mo hissed, but didn't reply. 　　Chen Mo's smoking habit dates back to when he was fourteen. 　　His first cigarette was a ten-yuan Hongtashan, which was also the first time he beat Chen Jianli so badly he couldn't get up. 　　When he picked up the pack of red cigarettes that Chen Jianli had dropped on the ground, poured one out with his weak hand, put it in his mouth, and lit it, the pungent smell made him cough. But from that moment on, he felt as if he was beginning to take control of his own life. 　　That feeling is addictive. 　　In the years that followed, he smoked countless expensive brand-name cigarettes, but he remained fascinated by the taste of cheap cigarettes. 　　Things are different now. 　　Chen Mo consciously controlled himself, and what Xi Siyan noticed on the table was still the pack he had bought at the internet cafe, almost half empty. This was almost impossible for Chen Mo, who later became a heavy smoker. 　　But there was nothing we could do. 　　With a stomach that's in such bad shape, I can't afford to overindulge; quitting completely is only a matter of time. 　　Chen Mo spent nearly an hour organizing everything. 　　I went to 413 before noon. 　　Upon opening the door and entering, one sees a half-naked person. 　　"Sorry." Chen Mo subconsciously stepped back to close the door. 　　"Wait, come in." Qi Lin's shorts barely covered his hips as he roughly rubbed his hair and said, "Old Xi said this morning that you were going to move down, so bring your things in." 　　Chen Mo then recognized him and walked in. "Are you alone?" 　　"Yes, they're not here." 　　Chen Mo looked around the dormitory room and found that the overall environment was much better than he had imagined. There were six beds, but only four of them had anything on them. The boys' personal belongings were relatively simple, and there was quite a lot of empty space. 　　Chen Mo looked at the two beds that were close together and asked, "Which one should I sleep in?" 　　"Either is fine," Qi Lin said indifferently. "These two beds originally belonged to Lao Xi and Yang Shule, but neither of them has ever lived in a dormitory. Lao Xi would occasionally bring his clothes back to shower after playing basketball. Yang Shule..." Qi Lin paused here, then continued, "Anyway, he won't be moving in anymore, so you can just choose either one. Also, Lao Xi will probably be here a little later; he still needs to go home to get some things." 　　Chen Mo chose the one closest to the balcony. He had assumed that Xi Siyan wouldn't be staying there that night, but upon hearing the last sentence, he paused in his action of putting down the suitcase. "He's staying here too?" 　　"Otherwise what?" Qi Lin laughed: "Do you really think that just by living in this so-called top student dormitory, your grades will improve by leaps and bounds? Since Lao Xi has promised Director Lai, you should be mentally prepared." 　　"for example?" 　　"His teaching methods might be... well... abnormal?" 　　Chen Mo didn't take those words to heart. 　　Whether he'll become abnormal or not, he's the one who's learning it, and as for how he'll become, Chen Mo can't guarantee anyone. 　　Chen Mo spent some more time organizing the things. 　　It was past noon when we finished, and I made plans with Qi Lin to have lunch at the cafeteria. 　　As they were leaving, they ran into two other tall boys who were returning, Jiang Xu and Bai Cheng. They had met before; they were from the same group that Xi Siyan and his friends often played basketball with. 　　After exchanging greetings, Qi Lin and Chen Mo left first. 　　"They're all easy to get along with," Qi Lin said to Chen Mo as they walked down the stairs. "It's that one you haven't met yet, Xue Ping. Do you remember him?" 　　Chen Mo thought for a moment: "The one in the fifth row from the right?" 　　"Wow, you have a good memory." 　　Chen Mo didn't think that sentence was a compliment. 　　The reason he didn't know many people before, and couldn't even remember many faces after graduation, was because he hadn't paid any attention to it. Now that so much time has passed, if he still can't recognize them all, he might have some kind of intellectual problem. 　　Qi Lin said, "Xue Ping isn't really that bad. You know, in any school, there's always someone who's perpetually second to someone with Xi Siyan's inhuman intelligence. Unfortunately, that's him. And I feel like he's a bit obsessed with studying. He doesn't talk to anyone all day, just muttering to himself, single-mindedly trying to surpass Xi Siyan. He's practically invisible now that he's second in the grade, and you still notice him." 　　Chen Mo thought that in his previous life, he was probably similar to Xue Ping in the eyes of these people. 　　They are even inferior to others. 　　At least he didn't rank second in his grade, and the most talked-about thing about him is his relationship with Yang Shule, who was "swapped" at birth. He is extremely absorbed in himself and doesn't care about anyone or anything around him.
