"Second Brother, are you up already? Didn't we agree to return to school today? You aren't still asleep, are you?"
"What ti is it now?" Hearing Zhou Chao's drowsy voice, Li Yang couldn't help but pat his own head.
"It's already 9:30! Get up quickly!"
"I'll get up right away. I took a short nap, and the next thing I knew, it was already this late. I'll take a shower first. Big Bro, where are you right now?" Zhou Chao bounced out of bed, grabbed his phone, and headed for the bathroom.
"I'm in your garage. Hurry up, I won't co up!"
"Alright, wait for for 20 minutes!" Zhou Chao hung up the phone, tossed it aside, and jumped into the shower.
After a quick rinse, Zhou Chao opened his wardrobe and looked at it, choosing a sowhat formal casual outfit. Glancing at the half-filled closet, he couldn't help but sigh, "Those rich second-generation kids have their closets filled with several, and I haven't even filled one completely. What a disappointnt!"
After tidying his hair, he opened the bedroom door and walked downstairs, grabbing the keys to his Koenigsegg One1 on the way out.
As soon as Zhou Chao arrived at the garage, he saw Li Yang sitting in a Ferrari, smoking.
"Big Bro, why so early? Aren't these events usually in the afternoon? Why are we going to school in the morning?" Zhou Chao walked over, leaned on Li Yang's car window, and casually took the cigarette Li Yang offered.
"We're heading over in the morning to visit the school, and et so renowned alumni, it's just regular networking. We'll see if there are any valuable connections or resources we can tap into!"
"Alright, let's go now!" Zhou Chao turned to walk toward his own car.
"Hold on, what car are you planning to drive back today?"
"I'm taking the Koenigsegg One1. What's up?" Zhou Chao looked puzzled at Li Yang.
"Then give the keys to your Lamborghini Veneno. I'll drive your car today and show off a bit. I heard that Wang Hao's grandson is also coming back to school!"
As soon as Li Yang ntioned Wang Hao's na, Zhou Chao understood the situation. After all, the two had clashed back in school. Wang Hao's family was similar to Li Yang's, but their influence was in Jinling.
"Sure, wait a mont. I'll go get the keys." Zhou Chao headed for the elevator. In no ti, he returned with the Lamborghini keys in hand.
"Here you go!" Li Yang took the keys Zhou Chao tossed to him. Both of them then walked toward their respective cars.
Zhou Chao sent a ssage to Lin Wu, saying that he had already arrived at the school and asked Lin Wu to co to find him.
Before long, the two luxury sports cars drove out of The Palms Residence and headed toward MoDu University, located in Yangpu District.
As they reached the school, the change in atmosphere was evident. Countless banners bearing the ssage "Welco back to school!" adorned the entire campus After parking their cars on the campus, the two of them began their stroll towards the school buildings.
"It feels like this is our first ti back at school after graduating, but we didn't expect it to be under these circumstances!" Li Yang looked at the bustling students passing by and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, it's like all the mories from the past suddenly ca rushing back!" Zhou Chao also sighed. After all, he had only recently crossed over to this world, and coming back here was like a new beginning in his life.
Unconsciously, the two arrived at the basketball court, watching the young souls playing with their hearts out. It was as if they saw their own shadows from the past.
"Do you still rember? It was right here on this basketball court where the clash with Wang Hao took place, marking our first college brawl! It's also the place where our brotherhood was witnessed!" Li Yang suddenly recalled that sumr and the events that unfolded on this court.
"How could I forget? If it weren't for the tily arrival of our group, you would have been beaten to a pulp by Wang Hao!" Zhou Chao chuckled as he reminisced.
Li Yang also recollected the situation. It was during their first sester when Li Yang and Wang Hao were on opposing sides in a 5v5 basketball ga. Wang Hao felt a bit resentful after Li Yang blocked his shots multiple tis. He resorted to so dirty tricks, and that's when the two of them got into a heated argunt.
Since Wang Hao was not as physically strong as Li Yang, he called a few friends to confront Li Yang. Fortunately, Zhou Chao, Xiao Feng, and Xu Wenzheng arrived just in ti; otherwise, Li Yang would have suffered a severe beating from Wang Hao. Nonetheless, both groups engaged in a brawl, but campus security quickly intervened, calming the situation.
However, the incident left several of them bruised. Zhou Chao, in particular, was on the verge of collapsing, considering he had recently recovered from a serious injury. Ultimately, the school downplayed the matter and resolved it quietly.
After that incident, the friendship among them rapidly ward, and their bond grew stronger over ti.
"Let's go, it's getting late!" They had unintentionally spent half an hour at the basketball court.
"Yeah." They turned and continued walking along the campus road towards the faculty office building.
In no ti, they arrived at the building, and they made their way to the counselor's office.
As they reached the door of the counselor's office, they saw the counselor engaged in a conversation with a few individuals who looked familiar, likely forr classmates from the sa departnt.
Li Yang pushed open the door and entered, with Zhou Chao following closely behind.
"Li Yang, you're here! Oh, Zhou Chao, you're here too! Your brotherly bond is still going strong; that's nice to see!" The counselor's surprise at seeing Li Yang, followed by his astonishnt upon spotting Zhou Chao, quickly turned into delight within a brief mont.
"Octopus Bro, it's been a few years, and it looks like you've lost a bit of hair!" Li Yang playfully comnted while gesturing with his fingers. Zhou Chao thought Li Yang ant just a bit, but to everyone's amusent, Li Yang's hand gestures indicated a much greater distance, eliciting laughter from those present.
"F*ck you! I can't believe you're still this mischievous even after graduating. You haven't learned to be more mature!"
Octopus Bro, whose real na was Zhang Yu, was in his early thirties and chose to stay at the university after graduating. He was a genuinely interesting person and occasionally joined Li Yang and the others in their dorm to play gas. Over ti, their relationship had grown stronger.
Octopus Bro had a kind and hearty face, the epito of a typical man from the Shandong region. During his years at the university, he found himself a beautiful wife who was the departnt's belle. They got married during their junior year, and Octopus Bro was quite accomplished himself; rumor had it that he had already obtained a Ph.D.!
"Why have you all co to my office instead of going to the auditorium to et so well-known alumni? After all, those are valuable connections. Especially you, Zhou Chao, once you step out of the university, you need to change that lazy ntality of yours!"
"We just wanted to see how you're doing and if you've grown so hair!" Zhou Chao cheekily continued the conversation upon seeing their counselor's remarks.
"How are you doing now? Are you still as lazy?"
"Impossible, at most, I've been a bit lazy at ho."
"You're still quite good! Let's go; I'll take you to the auditorium!"
With that, Octopus Bro led the group out of the office and headed towards the university's auditorium.
