No, your test is not yet complete

It is as follows. The Special Management Office of the Star Palace is conducting random interviews with new students who are not from the main Star Palace. Please proceed to the Special Management Office as soon as possible to cooperate with the work. Here is the address, take it well.

A morning filled with the songs of birds and the fragrance of flowers

Haha, what Earl Rose Pastry Society, it simply does not exist!

If you do not respond immediately, the speed will increase by one level

The three girls stared at me in surprise with wide eyes, waiting for me to continue speaking

The newcomer is a stranger, a boy dressed in the uniform of a grade higher than mine, with an appearance so ordinary that he would vanish into a crowd.

Hehe, I didn't expect you to remember everything from last night

His hands pressed heavily against the door panels on either side of my head, completely enclosing me within the circle formed by his arms

You have truly had enough

This starry night has too many similarities with the dark golden masked man I encountered last night, "Liu".

Under the starry night, Liu Chang's long leg stepped forward, blocking my way, as her eyes fixed on me without blinking

I looked at the address on the note with suspicion and silently read it aloud

The sound of footsteps stopped beside my ear, and I looked up along those feet—ah, it was as if I were gazing up at Mount Everest!

The brain emitted a dangerous alarm sound when operating at high speed

After the treadmill Q&A session, I was half coaxed and half coerced by this girl to do one hundred sit-ups and one hundred frog jumps... Until she declared, "Physical fitness test passed," I collapsed, panting heavily, onto the blue exercise mat on the floor

Nana smiled as she took out her phone, and on the screen was a glaring photo of my unattractive sleeping posture

Viya, you are truly easy to deceive! Where is there a Midnight Pastry Society? That is a third-rate legend that is popular in every college!

Are you the first-year student Wei Ya from Xinggong? Come, let's start with a few tests over here

Thump!

Room 403, Building 1, Xinggong Academy Girls' Dormitory

The magical glass villa, the masked handsome youth, the desserts ... . ... all vividly emerge in my mind as if they were scenes from a movie

Star ... ... Starry Night Liuli ! ''

Beep beep beep

Upon exiting the girls' dormitory, I opened my phone, logged into my email, and after reviewing the class schedule sent by the homeroom teacher, I planned to head directly to the teaching building for class

I stared blankly at his gradually enlarging handsome face, as he drew closer to me, making me so nervous that I hardly dared to breathe, when the ice in his blue eyes seemed to melt in an instant, igniting an orange flame.

I feel completely confused. Wasn't it said that there would be random interviews? Why are there fitness equipment in this office?

To reach here, one must travel along a main road and turn around two corners before finding the office of the Special Management Office in a small high-rise building marked "Student Office Building".

I pretended to speak nonchalantly and immediately turned to bypass Xingye Liu, who was blocking the way, and rushed towards the door. However, just as my hand was about to touch the doorknob, a force struck me from behind

I jumped up from the mat as if struck by an electric current, looking at the newcomer in panic

Hahaha! I can no longer cooperate!

"Tsk tsk, your sleeping posture clearly does not meet the standards of a lady from the Star Palace..." The dormitory head, Hu Xiaoli, observed me while stroking her chin

Suddenly, I felt a chill run down my back

Drooling, grinding teeth, and even talking in one's sleep

What strange dream did you have? You even shouted, 'Accept the punishment of dessert.'

What else do I need to do next

No, the Earl Rose Pastry Shop does indeed exist. I closed the wardrobe door, fastened the bow tie on my school uniform, and turned to speak to them

After the boy finished explaining, he hurriedly stuffed a note into my hand and left

Xingye Liu's eyes瞬间narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of coldness

However, what?

Bang

Wait a moment

I widened my eyes, took two steps back, and observed his face more carefully

No, no, I remember nothing! I saw nothing last night, encountered nothing... I shook my head desperately in denial

Wait, how could I have such a thought

I involuntarily shouted out due to the shock

We are your good roommates, how could we possibly reject the lovely you just because of a Night Star fan club

I was supposed to get up, but the previous test drained too much of my energy, leaving me sprawled on the ground like a pile of mashed potatoes

Wait, I, I am not ready yet—ah ah ah!

After she finished speaking, she gently tapped the button, and my feet had no choice but to quicken their pace

Ah, got you, fool

No, Wei Ya, no! Stop the wild thoughts! Stop!

The questioning now officially begins, please state your place of origin, blood type, height, weight, hobbies ... ...

I kindly advised them

Is it fun to lie on the ground pretending to be a bug? Get up!

Alright, alright, I will cooperate! I come from New Delhi...

I raised my head and looked towards the starry night.

Ah, I too long to swim in those ocean-like blue eyes under the starry night, just like those little penguins

In an instant, it seemed as if I witnessed the glaciers of a thousand years melting, with a group of joyful little penguins lining up, singing songs as they jumped into the sea from the ice blocks

Oh my God

Chestnut-colored hair, a cold tone... If one does not look at the upper half of his face, one might imagine the beautiful youth across from him being masked, revealing only the lower half of his face...

Nonsense! It is clearly almond apple pie! The sweetness is of course --

I clumsily realized that I had let something slip and hurriedly covered my mouth

You rushed out before we finished speaking... We became too tired waiting, so we fell asleep first

I held the note and used my phone's map to locate the address of the special management office written on it

There is a fellow wearing a dark golden mask, resembling a cold, mobile ice pillar, with a dark heart and a bad temper; one should keep as far away from him as possible.

I helplessly watched my noisy roommate, lifted the blanket, and got out of bed to prepare for washing up

Whenever I feel nervous, I tend to blurt out all my questions at once

Ah, why are you all watching me sleep

What you said sounds just like the truth, hahaha! A beautiful young man wearing a mask... Wei Ya, do you really enjoy reading comics?

Are you Lin Wei Ya, a first-year student at Xinggong?

Ah! I apologize, I suddenly remembered that I have something very important to attend to...

Huh? This sound...

How was the taste of the caramel apple pie last night? Would it be better if it were a bit sweeter?

It is surrounded by a beautiful garden, where the rose buds glow. There are three handsome young men wearing exquisite masks, dressed in formal attire to welcome guests. They will also prepare delicious desserts for you, but...

I almost thought that these guys really believed me

I know, Wei Ya, you must be trying to recover the loss from being teased by us last night, so you are trying to trick us in return, right? Hahaha, you are too adorable...

I asked him with a苦脸, and while he was not paying attention, I quietly moved a little towards the door

Did you really see that pastry society

I was pulled back by a hand, spinning 180° like a dancer in a twirl, and my back slammed heavily against the door panel

He was dressed in a deep blue uniform, his figure tall and straight like bamboo, all the golden buttons fastened. His chestnut hair glistened as if coated in honey, and his fair skin, with features as perfect as a sculpture... Yet, within the depths of his deep blue eyes, there seemed to be a piece of ice that had not melted for a thousand years.

Xing Ye Liu's lips curled up once again, revealing a faint smile

They were stunned for a moment, and Ai Maomao was the first to lose her composure, bursting into laughter.

I am one of the heads of the Special Management Office, Xingye Liu, and this is classmate Lin Wei Ya. He looked down at me from a height of 1.88 meters, exuding a cold aura that made me feel like a person from a land of little people.

I really do not want to be with this iceberg who keeps everyone at arm's length. Clearly, he has such a good-looking face, yet his expression is so unpleasant as if the whole world owes him a million.

A flash of lightning seemed to pass through my mind

Do you know what it feels like to open your eyes and be met with three pairs of shining eyes

The three of them were all stunned

As soon as I entered, a particularly enthusiastic girl came up to me and led me to several items that appeared to be fitness equipment.

No, there is no discomfort! Except for meeting a strange guy with a bad temper and an icy expression like yours last night...

My heart immediately raced

The girl smiled gently, skillfully avoiding the questions like practicing Tai Chi, and guided me onto the treadmill

Ai Miao Miao perfectly mimicked my accent, striking a quirky pose

The physical fitness survey is also one of the items! Please cooperate with the test first, and stand on this platform...

When I declined the Dream God Zhou Gongzi's invitation for another date, and poked my head out from the warm quilt, the moment I opened my eyes and saw the bright eyes of Hu Xiaoli, Nana, and Ai Maomao, I was so frightened that I immediately grabbed the quilt and hid in the corner

Isn't the person just the "Black Diamond Ice Cream" handsome guy I met in the small garden on my first day of school? Why is he here?

But just as I stepped out of the apartment door, a person hurriedly approached me and stood still in front of me

"Did you call me here? What do you want to do? I just completed the physical fitness test, can I leave now?"

What is the Special Management Office? Why is there no mention of this in the new student handbook?

When I finally matched the face of the dark-gold masked man I encountered last night at the Earl Rose Pastry Shop with that of the indifferent boy in front of me, every hair on my body stood on end

I looked at the girl who was smiling at me with one hand on the treadmill control button and the other holding a voice recorder in shock

I was completely unprepared when suddenly my feet slipped— that girl had turned on the treadmill, and I had no choice but to start running.

It is you

May I ask what exactly I need to cooperate with you on

After the girl finished the physical fitness test and left, a steady and powerful sound of footsteps approached from a distance.

I looked speechlessly at my roommates who were laughing uncontrollably, sighed, and walked out the door

Last night I returned very late, and when I got back to the dormitory, those guys were already asleep, and no one was waiting for me to reveal any so-called legendary secrets. It was only when I found their notes by the pillow that I realized their proposal for the "Exploring the Secrets of the West Point Society" challenge was merely a little joke.

I am. Do you have something to discuss? I replied politely

... ...

In the brief moments while I was washing up and changing clothes, those three individuals continued to chatter incessantly. When I heard them mention that name, the scenes from last night unfolded in my mind.

From last night until this morning, have you experienced any discomfort in your body or mind
