Chapter 04: The thunderous words astonished all present
Ah, the upper bunk, that... Dan Yong is the eldest, I am the second, and Si Mu Xian is the third. Lei Da Peng pointed to the upper bunk of the eldest, which was unoccupied, and emphasized: "Dan Yong is not only the eldest in the dormitory, but he is also my sworn brother. I call his mother 'dry mother' and his father 'dry father', so we are essentially sworn brothers... Although his surname is Dan (SHAN), it is a homophone and can also be pronounced as Dan (DAN), so in the underworld, he is known as Brother Egg, and the brothers all call him Brother Egg Pain."
Oh dear... Simuxian slapped his own face, having once again violated the taboo of not arguing with Brother Lei. His intelligence had to be lowered to Brother Lei's level to even engage in a debate; he simply had no chance of winning. It was no wonder that Director Shi, Director Wang, and the homeroom teacher turned and left. With this thought, he fell silent, lying on the pillow and flipping through a book aimlessly.
Indeed, Director Wang is very insightful; this is merely a matter of appetite, what does it have to do with ideological understanding? The food at our school is truly quite unpalatable
Si Muxian was struck by lightning and did not dare to argue further. The three brothers were not in agreement on this issue, with pure love, indifferent love, and excessive love each holding their own views. Meanwhile, Lei Dapeng continued unabated, having already stood in front of the mirror, admiring himself, touching his jawline while asking: "Xian Di, just now Wang Huating indeed said I am very handsome... Did you hear it clearly? She said it like this, right? I also noticed that it seems I have become a bit more handsome lately... No, no, it's not just a bit, it's a lot. Perhaps many girls in the school have a crush on me but are suffering from not having the opportunity to confess to me!" He continued to ask: "Xian Di, do you think my other half is Wang Huating?"
Before long, Lei Dapeng returned with a wet face, having just wiped it. The bed had been tidied up by Si Muxian, and the four visitors were standing. When their eyes met, Lei Dapeng was startled, feeling guilty, and quickly explained: "Hey, what's going on? Why are you looking at me like that? I haven't posted a notice for girls in the girls' dormitory for a long time. Besides, nowadays, girls are going out to work as hostesses, so isn't it acceptable for me to openly seek a girlfriend?"
The cafeteria, ah...
No, that's not it. What I mean is that... Lei Dapeng pointed to the banner on the boss's table and said: "This matter needs to be explained clearly to everyone. The words were written by Dan Yong. Si Muxian is incorrect; the 'Three Goods' is not referring to the gentleman's 'Three Goods'"
Why is that? There are indeed many girls in the school who have been casually labeled as department flowers, class flowers, and campus flowers, but Wang Huating is the only one who has been designated as the "Party Flower," standing above all others. She joined the Party as a freshman and became the student council president in her sophomore year. What kind of person is she? She is the object of countless lonely nights for boys, a fantasy they indulge in. Throughout our four years, we haven't had a decent girl to show us a good face, yet now the Party Flower blooms for us, how can we not be overwhelmed with excitement?
This was indeed a matter of fishing and catching turtles as agreed upon, as the leader had skipped class for two days in preparation for it. In university, aside from attending classes, everything else seemed more engaging. Even Si Muxian was excited, changing into sports shoes. The two locked the dormitory door and headed straight downstairs, exiting the campus
"This is ridiculous!" The slang popular among students was uttered by Lei Dapeng without any restraint, startling Wang Huating. Not only her, but also the class teacher, department head, and Director Shi were taken aback. "What a mess!" Upon hearing this, Director Wang felt an urge to kick this guy.
The spittle flew everywhere, and even Director Wang couldn't stop it. The rebellious words came out, and Si Muxian became anxious. He stepped down hard, causing Lei Dapeng, who was getting carried away, to exclaim in surprise, finally breaking his train of thought. He forgot to mention the meal and instead shot a sidelong glance at Si Muxian in defiance, admonishing him: "Why are you stepping on me? That's not right. You already said that dish at noon was clearly pork, yet no matter how you eat it, it looks like pig food... Wasn't that what you said? I just can't stand this about you. Will speaking the truth kill you?"
With a smile, she walked away, and Lei Dapeng felt a sudden tightening in his heart, quickly covering his chest in fear that his little heart might leap out.
With a burst of laughter, even the homeroom teacher Ren Qun couldn't help but chuckle, probably half out of anger. Si Muxian looked at his second brother's antics and couldn't help but laugh as well. In fact, who wouldn't feel the same way when encountering our second brother: it's just painful!
What is that? Director Wang instinctively asked.
Wang Huating, the class committee member, couldn't help but chuckle. Only the residents of Dormitory 222 could drive away the intimidating Director Shi. Today, the unfounded suspicion about Class Two had already made Wang Huating anxious. However, after Lei Dapeng's chaotic remarks, she felt a sense of relief and inexplicably a bit of happiness. As she was about to leave, she glanced back at Lei Dapeng, who was standing upright and didn't seem to think he had said anything wrong. Wang Huating smiled and gave him a thumbs up, her eyebrows fluttering as if she were flirting. In a lowered voice, she said, "Tian Lei, I never noticed before, but among the boys in our class, you are the most handsome."
As the two argued, Director Wang's expression must have turned unpleasant. He inquired of Director Shi, whose face looked even worse, "Director Shi, how about we investigate other classes... Please don't take it to heart, Da Peng had a head injury in his childhood, so he speaks rather bluntly; I hope you can be more understanding."
"Hey... hey..." With a few calls of "hey," Si Muxian waved his hand in front of Lei Dapeng's dazed eyes. Seeing that he had no reaction, he simply gave him a few light slaps on the face. After a bit of effort, Lei Dapeng finally woke up and didn't mind at all. With a contented smile, he began to touch his own uneven jawline with his chubby hands, and with a foolish and simple-minded expression, he asked Si Muxian, "What's wrong, brother Xian? Why are you touching me? Do you also think I'm the most handsome in our class?"
There are indeed advantages to Lei Dapeng; if you do not argue with him, he will not dispute with you either. Not only does he refrain from arguing, but he also remains quite at peace. The beautiful group leader YY, after a while, turned around and sat on the bed, flipping through the MP5 hidden under her pillow, wearing headphones to watch something. Si Muxian chuckled to himself, estimating that this fellow was likely going to relieve some pent-up frustration with the saved art films, as a happy life must be resolved with one's own hands
I didn't..." Lei Dapeng turned around and glared, just about to explain that his head was definitely uninjured, as he was quite clever. However, the department head's piercing gaze silenced the rest of Lei Dapeng's words, and under the weight of authority and intimidation, he could only tacitly accept that his head had indeed been injured.
In this case, when looking for the leader of the strike, two individuals who were not involved in the strike were found, which left Director Shi feeling rather disinterested. Ren Qun and Wang Huating breathed a sigh of relief; as long as it was not the students from their own class causing trouble, they could rest easy.
This pretentious young man is not without merit; his responses are quite good, and he even brought up the esteemed old professor. Upon hearing this, Director Shi was momentarily taken aback, while Teacher Ren Qun looked on with approval. Sometimes, she does not quite agree with the Student Affairs Office's nitpicking of students, as over time it suppresses their individuality. Si Muxian is undoubtedly a person of great character. However, this rather sour disposition made Lei Dapeng curl his lips in disdain.

However, this rather sour disposition made Lei Dapeng curl his lips in disdain.
Laughing heartily as if some clever scheme had succeeded, he took out a bowl that had not been washed, demonstrating that the lard had already solidified into a white, gelatinous form. Lei Dapeng, whether intentionally or unintentionally, reached out directly in front of Director Shi, startling him into stepping aside. Si Muxian, fearing that this fellow would cause trouble, quickly stepped forward to block him, explaining that he and the librarian had seen the kitchen being closed at noon and then entered through the back door of the cafeteria to get their meals. As for the instigation, Lei Dapeng was not completely foolish and naturally denied it vehemently. He even turned a blind eye to the fact that he had joined in shouting slogans. As for the dormitory leader, Shan Yong, he was not even at school today; he had gone home and had been back for two days.
This sense of triumph feels akin to the comfort experienced after a satisfying release, accompanied by a contented hum. Si Muxian smiled and asked, "It is indeed handsome, so handsome that it almost makes one wet their underwear. You can't possibly be reaching a climax just by looking at Wang Huating, can you? Is that someone you can fantasize about?"
Lei Dapeng completely disregards himself as part of the masses. As soon as he gets excited, he barges in. Si Muxian tries to stop him, but Lei Dapeng, unable to contain himself, pushes Si Muxian aside and points at the crowd, saying: "You have no idea, our school's food is incredible, it could be used as building materials... Why? The noodles are so soft they could stick to the wall, the rice is so hard it could be used to build a house, and the soup? Its taste directly rivals that of cement slurry... And the steamed buns? They come out of the pot like reinforced concrete; if you don't have good teeth, you simply can't bite into them... Why? The noodles are so soft they could stick to the wall, the rice is so hard it could be used to build a house, and the soup? Its taste directly rivals that of cement slurry... And the steamed buns? They come out of the pot like reinforced concrete; if you don't have good teeth, you simply can't bite into them... I suspect all the chefs at our school come from construction sites... This isn't cooking at all; it's practically forcing everyone to go to Jinggangshan. It's impossible not to rebel."
There was much sarcasm behind the smile, and Si Muxian felt it was jarring for no apparent reason. He straightened his collar and, with a demeanor that boldly defended against authority, declared: "Director Shi, this 'Three Goods' is not the same as that 'Three Goods.' Our 'Three Goods' refer to being generous and kind, being eager to serve the public good, and being diligent and studious. This is the 'Three Goods' of a gentleman, universally applicable from ancient times to the present, and it is also the foundation of character taught by Professor Song in our Chinese Department. This is correct, isn't it?"
Haha... I said to Dapeng, if you don't speak, others might just think you're foolish, but once you open your mouth, they'll consider you brainless. On the bed, Supervisor Mu Xian laughed uncontrollably, pointing at the seriously narcissistic ugly Dapeng and scolding him: "Also, Dapeng, don't speak carelessly in the future, I'm already afraid of your mouth. Can you really talk about being gluttonous and lecherous in front of others?"
What is it? Everyone paused, thinking that Lei Dapeng had objections regarding the unfounded suspicion of his involvement in the strike. Director Wang, fearing that this thoughtless student might say something inappropriate, interjected: "Understood, your opinions have already been heard by Director Shi. As for whether or not there was involvement, we will discuss it after the investigation. You are about to graduate, so do not cause any more trouble for the department."
Director Shi did not smile, furrowing his brows, giving off a somewhat fiery feeling. Not to mention the person named Shan Yong, even the one in front of him was enough to make him feel exasperated. Director Wang could no longer maintain his composure, scolding Lei Dapeng: "If you don't ask, don't speak carelessly. You've studied Chinese for four years, and all you've learned is nonsense! ... Where did you have lunch today? What were you doing during lunch? So much pointless chatter."
However, before he could enjoy a moment of happiness, the phone rang. As Lei Dapeng, restless, answered the call, the excitement on his face made Si Muxian realize it was a call from the leader of their dormitory. After a few words, he hung up the phone. Lei Dapeng, in a hurry and not wanting to bask in his own glory, adjusted his pants and pulled Si Muxian along, saying, "Let’s go, the boss is coming down the mountain soon. We need to wait for him at the intersection. This time, we’re going to have a big adventure. I’ll drive my dad’s car... we’ll bring back a whole load."
"What’s wrong? The boss said that no matter how impressive a woman is, she still has to moan under a man's hips." Lei Dapeng said with a crooked smile, feeling dissatisfied, as he pushed aside his unappreciative colleague, Si Muxian.
At this thought, he began to feel a surge of excitement throughout his body, biting his finger, his eyes glazed over, checking himself in the mirror, and feeling an itch in his heart, unsure of where to place his hands or how to stand his legs. In just a few seconds, Lei Dapeng found himself imagining his thick lips glistening with drool.
Lei Dapeng, counting on his fingers, spoke with a stern and serious demeanor, undeniably honest. One could clearly hear several sounds of "uh" caught in throats, as Director Shi, with a dark expression, turned and walked away in anger. Director Wang pointed at Lei Dapeng, glared at him, but was so infuriated that he couldn't utter a word, and turned to leave. Teacher Ren Qun, caught between laughter and tears, also turned to leave, likely feeling that it was futile to argue with such a student.
Oh, that works too... I will convey your opinion to the school. Director Shi, feeling somewhat displeased, did not express his frustration. Although the student's words were a bit shocking, they were indeed the truth, and he had heard about these matters long ago
Lei Dapeng's bunk was indeed not very clean; there was an imprint of a head on the pillow, and beneath it lay a pair of socks that had not been hidden in time, half of which was exposed. This remark struck a nerve with Lei Dapeng, especially with the pretty girls from the class present. He hurriedly covered his bunk. Director Shi did not delve deeper into the matter; he glanced at Si Muxian and inadvertently noticed that there was actually a banner made of white rice paper hanging from Shan Yong's upper bunk, inscribed with the four large characters "Three Good Home." Director Shi couldn't help but chuckle and said, "With a dormitory like yours, you dare to call it a Three Good Home?"
These two managed to leave Director Shi speechless. As they turned to leave, unexpectedly, Brother Lei recalled something. Seeing them about to go, he hurriedly chased after and stopped Director Wang, saying, "Wait a moment, there is something that needs to be clarified with the library."
This time, Director Wang had something to say, his expression was pleasant as he pointed directly at Lei Dapeng and said: "Director Shi, you are also aware of the situation in the fourth grade; there are only a few boys. If it weren't for them, we certainly wouldn't be leading the Chinese department. I believe we should not complicate matters, and this approach is open to discussion. If the students are protesting, can't we just improve the quality of the meals and optimize the logistics services? There's no need to elevate this to the level of moral education and political significance, is there?"
However, Lei Dapeng still thought he had not explained clearly, and elaborated: "Don't misunderstand, he himself is not in pain; whoever encounters him will be the one in pain."
Lei Dapeng responded with a hint of discouragement, being both the department head and the student affairs director, as well as the homeroom teacher, clearly at a disadvantage. However, upon hearing the question about lunch, a sudden realization struck him. He pointed at the crowd, and even the slowest among them understood their intention. He expressed his surprise with a few exclamations, then inexplicably grinned widely, laughing as he proudly said: "Oh, oh, oh, I understand, you all came to find out about the lunch strike, right? Haha... this time you’ve got it wrong. I was just eating in the cafeteria at noon, and Si Muxian hasn’t finished yet; there’s still half a basin left. If you don’t believe me, I can take you to the kitchen for verification. I even went to the cafeteria to get my meal and told you all that today, only the two of us didn’t participate in the strike, haha. ... If you don’t believe it, just take a look."
Wang Huating chuckled softly, then quickly pressed her lips together. This classmate of hers could always bring down the house with her words, but laughing in such a solemn setting was indeed a bit inappropriate. Director Shi, as the head of the student affairs office, felt a bit embarrassed. He quickly shifted the topic, saying: "Not asking you about that, is Dan Yong also in this dormitory?"
These three virtues are being gluttonous and lazy, seeking comfort and despising hard work, and being lustful and greedy for wealth. These are the three virtues of a man, which everyone desires. Truly, I am not deceiving you, Director Wang. Si Muxian is someone who loves to speak nonsense.
Lei Dapeng, without turning his head, remarked: "Don't be so sour. The boss said, enjoying beauty is good for the eyes, good food is good for the stomach, and leisure is good for the body. What is shameful about a man having these three good things? No wonder you look so much like the old society; you haven't touched a single good thing! You should learn from our boss, indulging in food, drink, and entertainment, each one more refined than the last"
Having taken a step forward, I turned back to survey the dormitory. Aside from Lei Dapeng's bunk, the rest could barely be considered clean. Director Shi, seemingly wanting to regain some face, pointed at Lei Dapeng's bed and admonished, "Pay attention to personal hygiene... Look at how dirty it is; does it still resemble that of a university student?"
