This Curse Is Just Awesome

After the Chief Examiner announced that he was disbanding, Chen Yu and the other examinees left the ring and walked to their respective waiting areas.

The principal of No. 7 High School carried Chen Yu’s temporary luggage and waited for a long time. “Let’s go back to the room. First, send your clothes to the dormitory. After that, we principals will have a meeting. You can walk around and wait for me to come back. I will bring you to eat.”

“There’s no need for you to eat. The Chief Examiner said that you can call your family over to cook.”

“What?” The principal was surprised. “You can actually bring in family members?!”

“Yeah. Didn’t you know?”

“My students from No. 7 High School have never entered the official competition. How would I know?”

“…You’re quite reasonable.”

“I understand now.” The principal of No. 7 High School carried his luggage. “Then you can contact your family later. I’ll find a place and eat by myself.”

Chen Yu nodded. “Alright.”

“…” The principal of No. 7 High School was silent for a moment. “I always feel lonely eating by myself.”

Chen Yu spread his hands. “That’s right. But there’s nothing I can do about it.”

The principal said, “If my student was willing to invite me to eat with his family, I would definitely be very happy.”

Chen Yu said, “Obviously, you don’t have such a student.”

The principal: “…I remember that I do.”

Chen Yu: “You remembered wrongly.”

The principal: “…”

…

They walked into the main entrance of the hall. Before they could enter the elevator, a staff member stopped them.

“Excuse me, are you called Chen Yu?”

Chen Yu looked at them up and down before nodding. “Yes, I am.”

The staff member took out a cell phone and handed it over. “Then Student Chen Yu, this is your cell phone, right?”

Chen Yu took it and checked it. “It’s mine. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. This is what we should do. If you have any problems, just go to the service room and call me.”

“If you don’t say ‘right’ after every sentence, I’m very willing to look for you.”

“Uh… Alright!”

“Hurry up and leave. I can’t control my kylin arm anymore…”

After watching the staff member leave, Chen Yu and the principal got into the elevator and headed to the sixth floor where the dormitory was located.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Yu turned on his cell phone and called Chen Siwen.

Du–

“Hello!” The ring tone was not even half a second before Chen Siwen picked up the call. “Xiao Yu!”

“It’s me. Where are you guys?”

“We’re on the way home.” On the other side of the receiver, Chen Siwen appeared very excited. “Chen Yu! You’re amazing! You actually made it to the official competition. Today, I feel like I’m dreaming. I’m really… Ah… I’m so happy…”

“I’ll tell you something even happier right now.” Chen Yu took a step back and gave way to the new passenger. He said, “You guys can come and find me at the competition venue tonight. You can cook for me and we can even live together.”

“…Really?!” Chen Siwen’s voice was a little hoarse.

“Really.” Chen Yu moved the phone away and clapped his ears. “You guys can come now. Bring your ID cards and household register.”

“I’ll go back and get my household register right away! Mom! We can go and look for Xiao Yu today! Wait here, I’ll go home and get my household register…”

Du–

Amidst the chattering, the other party hung up the phone.

The corner of Chen Yu’s mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile.

“The title of the Golden Roll is one of the greatest joys in life.” The principal of No. 7 High School patted Chen Yu’s shoulder. “Congratulations.”

“The title of the Golden Roll will have to wait until tomorrow.” Chen Yu also patted the principal on the shoulder. “Riding a high horse is also one of the greatest joys in life. Congratulations.”

The principal of No. 7 High School touched his round belly. “Riding a high horse will also have to wait until next month.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They actually had a faint feeling of mutual appreciation and collusion…

…

On the sixth floor, Chen Yu did not need the principal’s instructions to find his room.

Because the door was engraved with a big ’21’ number.

“Then I’ll go to the meeting first. It should be about your College Entrance Exam tomorrow.” The principal of No. 7 high school handed the luggage to Chen Yu. “When your family comes, give me a call. I’ll go and say hello.”

“OK.”

After taking the luggage, Chen Yu pushed open the room and found that it was very spacious.

There were two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living room, and a large balcony.

Furniture, appliances, bedding, and pillowcases were all there.

It was not like a dormitory, but more like a high-end suite in a hotel.

“As expected of a top student in the College Entrance Exam. This treatment… Tsk tsk, from now on, I’ll be the ‘top’ class, right?”

Sitting on the sofa, Chen Yu poured a glass of red wine, drank it, shook it in his mouth, and swallowed it.

Gulp.

“…Top class.”

Knock! Knock!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door from outside the living room.

Chen Yu was stunned. “They came so quickly?”

He put down the wine glass, stood up, and opened the door.

It was not his mother and sister outside the door.

Instead, there were two male students.

One was stronger, and the other was thinner.

“You are…”

“Hello, Student Chen Yu.” The stronger male student extended his hand and shook Chen Yu’s hand. “I am your opponent for Tomorrow’s official competition, Number 01.”

“Oh! You are Wang Baoqiang.” Chen Yu came to a sudden realization. Then, he looked at the person beside him. “This is your younger brother, Wang Baofei (scrapped), right?”

“En…” Wang Baoqiang was slightly embarrassed. “It’s… It’s Wang Baofei (flying fei), Wang Baofei.”

“Hai, the Internet is calling him Wang Baofei. I thought it was really called this ghost name.” Chen Yu also shook hands with Wang Baofei. “Hello, hello.”

Wang Baofei was expressionless. “Chen Yu, you’re very lucky.”

“What do you mean?”

“If you take the College Entrance Exam next year, you’ll be in the same batch as me. You’ll be beaten to shit by me.”

“Haha.” Chen Yu laughed foolishly. “This child is like a child who has lost his intelligence since young. He’s quite cute.”

Wang Baoqiang: “…”

Wang Baofei: “…”

“Why are you standing outside like a fool? Come, let’s talk inside.”

“Okay.” Wang Baoqiang nodded. Just as he was about to step into the house, he realized that the door was firmly blocked by Chen Yu. He had no intention of letting them in at all.

He took two steps back awkwardly. “Forget it. We’re just saying hello to you. You performed very well today. You’re very strong. If you have the chance, add me on WeChat and make friends.”

“No problem.”

“Then… See you later.”

“Okay, see you later.”

After watching the two Wang brothers leave, Chen Yu closed the door and was about to turn around when another person came.

This time, it was a girl.

She had black shoulder-length hair and wore a green hat. There were some freckles on her pretty face.

“Hello, Chen Yu.” The girl with the green hat shook Chen Yu’s hand. “My name is Ma Li. You can call me…”

“Lili?” Chen Yu followed up.

“You can call me Ma Ma.”

Chen Yu: “???”

“I’m a seeded contestant with Number 13.” Ma Li pointed at the number on her chest. “It’s also an odd number. Maybe we’ll meet tomorrow.”

Chen Yu: “Yes, yes.”

Ma Li: “…I’m asking you to look at the number, not my chest.”
