A CERTAIN SOMEONE ( THE ON1Y ONE )

Chapter 040 - Address

“What Did You Call Me?”

Fuzhong's dorms have sufficient space; Shi Yu and Qiu Wenbin’s beds were at the same side, Sheng Wang and Jiang Tian’s bed as well as a line of closets were on the other. In the middle was a long table enough for six people to use, as if it came straight from the library.

The moment Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou left, Shi Yu tumbled out from the upper bunk, sprawled over the table and asked: “You two are related?”
Sheng Wang nodded. “Mn.”

“Real brothers?” Shi Yu was dying of curiosity.
“What kind of real are you talking about?” Sheng Wang said.
“Biological brothers?”
“Nope.” Sheng Wang shook his head.
“I knew it, you two totally don’t look alike. Are you cousins or?”
“Nope.” Sheng Wang shot a glance at Jiang Tian, and upon seeing that he wouldn’t particularly mind, he said: “We both came from single parent families, got it now?”

Since they would be staying in the same dorm, they would have to know sooner or later. Besides, with how Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou already came around just now, there wasn’t any particular need to hide it.
With Sheng Wang’s explanation, Shi Yu instantly understood.

He had a decent EQ and knew when to stop talking, so he stopped this conversation topic. He said: “When I saw the name list at the door today, I was like, damn, goddess of fortune must be smiling down on me. I’m Shi Yu from Class B, last-last week our classes even played a basketball match together for PE, remember?”

“I do, I know who you are.”
Though Sheng Wang was bad with faces, he really did have a deep impression of who this new dormmate was. He was the tannest person out of the entire basketball court, his style of playing was too wild, when he played he charged everywhere like a bull. Sheng Wang asked Gao Tianyang who the hell was that person right there and then, and remembered his name.

“You seriously know me?” Astonishment was written all over Shi Yu’s face. “I thought I’m quite lowkey in Class B.”
“I wouldn’t know if you’re lowkey in Class B, either ways you are pretty highkey on the court. I’ve played half a match, and you’ve stepped on me six times in total.” Sheng Wang lifted up his right leg and slapped it. “All on this foot, I can’t forget about you even if I tried. Couldn’t you at least switch to a different foot to step on?”
Shi Yu: “......”

Jiang Tian witnessed how terrible Sheng Wang was with faces before, hearing that he knew who Shi Yu was came as a little surprise to him. Now that he knew the reason, he looked aside.
Sheng Wang instantly turned towards him. “You’re laughing?”
Shi Yu closely followed Sheng Wang’s gaze and looked over too. Sheng Wang must have grown an extra pair of eyes, how else would he manage to tell that Jiang Tian was laughing from the back of his head alone?

“When I wore my shoes the next day, my right shoe felt tighter. Visually, it was no different, but it felt like I’d grown pig trotters.” Sheng Wang continued.
Now, even Shi Yu could tell that Jiang Tian was laughing from the side view from the back, His Adam’s apple bobbed twice.

“Damn? You can actually laugh?” Shi Yu was sincerely, wholeheartedly, shocked.
Upon hearing that, Jiang Tian’s head whipped back, his brows furrowed. The look on his face said “What kind of bullshit are you sprouting”.
Shi Yu sheepishly shut his mouth. Sheng Wang, however, burst into laughter.

He had always found joy in teasing Jiang Tian until his expression changed, but it appeared that other people did not agree.

While he was still laughing, Shi Yu immediately cupped his fist in an apology: “Soz for accidentally stepping on you six times, I’ll be careful the next time we play together.”

Sheng Wang replied: “It’s alright, we’re in the same dorm after all. I can leave the court and repay it all back.”
Shi Yu cracked up.

The atmosphere in the dorm warmed up quite a bit with that, Qiu Wenbin finally found a point to cut in. “Um, I’m Qiu Wenbin, from Class 11.”
As compared to Shi Yu, he was much more bashful and inarticulate. When he was listening to his few dormmates chat, he laughed along too, but was too awkward to join in.
