    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    The senior sister sighed. Ji Mingxia was stunned and did not answer and she instantly understood. She smiled at him and said: “Oh I forgot, you are a boy so you aren’t interested in male gods. Do you want to inquire about Ye Tian?”

     

    “Let me tell you, I just met her and she is in our department. She has just reported, but she must be hiding since there are so many people around.”

     

    She then winked at Ji Mingxia with a “you understand” expression. 

     

    However, Ji Mingxia did not understand a word of what she said.

     

    One moment, he’s hearing about the god of learning, a moment later, male gods, and now Ye Tian ……

     

    During the summer vacation, Yu Ning was always being talked about on the internet. After all, in a small county like Funan, all the students knew each other, not to mention a provincial champion who grew up in an orphanage.

     

    Ji Mingxia would open the QQ group, and there was a discussion about Yu Ning. He would open WeChat, it was also about Yu Ning, opening the web page, the local newsfeed was also on news of the provincial top student ……

     

    The world was full of Yu Ning and it was making it difficult for Ji Mingxia to forget about him.

     

    In order to prevent himself from falling into a certain mood, Ji Mingxia focused on farming and although he’d go onto the Internet occasionally, he’d not look at those entertainment gossip news.

     

    He originally thought that H University would be the same as in his previous life, but unexpectedly, there were still some subtle changes.

     

    Look at this situation, H University had welcomed two famous people this year. According to the senior sister, one was a male god with a superb academic performance, the other was a celebrity goddess mixed in the entertainment industry.

     

    Two big Buddhas had suddenly appeared in the small temple of H University. No wonder the school was crowded like this..

     

    But these had nothing to do with Ji Mingxia. He was a recluse in school in his last life. He’d go to the classroom and then dormitory and he wanted this life to continue in the same way.

     

    With this thought, he took the freshman schedule and other materials from the senior sister, and declined to show him the way. He dragged his suitcase and walked towards the boys’ dormitory.

     

    It was noon, and the September sun was even more scorching than the summer sun. Ji Mingxia walked for a few moments, and a little sweat seeped out of his forehead.

     

    After the summer exercise in Banana Leaf Village, he was no longer afraid of the sun, but the countryside was vast. He had not walked in such a crowded area for a long time.

     

    It was hard to weave through the corridor and there was still a large distance from the boys’ dormitory.  The people in front were not any less but were actually increasing.

     

    Some photographers stood in the crowd with their cameras, waiting for the stars and gods. Since they had nothing better to do, they started to take pictures of the college students around them.

     

    Ji Mingxia stood in the crowd and was quite conspicuous. Some photographers saw him walking over with his suitcase; he was tall, and straight and the photographer immediately picked up the camera and focused in Ji Mingxia’s direction.

     

    Ji Mingxia had never seen this kind of battle before and he had no interest in taking pictures like this, so he quickly dragged his suitcase to a path with fewer people on the right, and decided to find a place to rest as he waited for the crowd to thin out.

     

    The right side of the avenue led to the library. It was the beginning of the new school year and everyone was busy with the procedures and moving luggage. There was no time to read books so the library was deserted. 

     

    As soon as he walked in, a cold air came over him and instantly dispelled the dry heat of early autumn.

     

    The library had five floors, and one was free to enter and exit the doors at will. However, one had to have a campus card to enter the book section.

     

    Ji Mingxia was a freshman who had just entered the school. He had not yet settled in the dormitory so naturally, he didn’t have a campus card and couldn’t enter the library area. He decided to go towards the leisure area on the first floor.

     

    The library of the H University had won awards for its design, and the most distinctive feature was the circular hallway in the library. It was not only beautiful, but also convenient for students to go up and down the stairs. Ji Mingxia had a suitcase so he did not take the stairs, but walked towards the elevator in the corner.

     

    At this time of day, the library was basically empty and the air conditioning was turned on. Standing in the lobby made him feel cool but as he walked to the corner with the elevator, a chill hit his back and ran down his spine.

     

    Ji Mingxia felt that something was wrong as he walked. He raised his head and saw two elevators before him. One was a passenger elevator, which was currently parked on the fifth floor.

     

    The other was a freight elevator which was on the ground floor. The elevator doors kept opening and closing, which looked very strange.

     

    When Ji Mingxia came over, the elevator door had just closed most of the way, leaving only a gap so he could not see the situation inside.

     

    But the next moment, the elevator doors slowly opened and Ji Mingxia’s scalp tingled when he saw the scene in the freight elevator. He even wanted to turn around, drag his suitcase and run out of the library.

     

    There was a group of “people” standing in the freight elevator at the moment.

     

    They wore uniform work clothes, their faces were blue-gray and their lips were purple. They didn’t look like living people, but more like a dozen of corpses next to each other.

     

    Due to the number of people, the elevator was overloaded, so it couldn’t close.

     

    And among these dozen “people” was a young girl with a double ponytail.

     

    Her hair was disheveled and she was drenched in sweat. She was caught in the middle of the “people” and was struggling. She tried to run out of the elevator several times but was unsuccessful.  She kept spinning in place and was so anxious that her eyes were swollen with tears.

     

    When she saw someone outside the elevator, the girl’s eyes went wide and she looked at Ji Mingxia happily and cried for help: “Classmate …… I do not know what is going on. I can’t get out, can you help me …… “

     

    The girl’s voice fell, and the “people” in the elevator turned their heads and stared at Ji Mingxia.

     

    Ji Mingxia was stared at by a dozen of ghosts and the whole person felt a little bad.

     

    He had read about this kind of elevator urban legend but seeing it with his own eyes made his scalp numb.

     

    More than a dozen ghosts stared at him, as if promising to tear him apart the moment he entered the elevator to save the girl.

     

    But the girl was trapped by the ghosts and Ji Mingxia couldn’t just sit back and watch.

     

    The girl’s hair was messy, the makeup on her face was a mess and she looked pitiful. Ji Mingxia hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

     

    He tried his best to ignore the dozen or so ghosts, pretended that he had no yin and yang eyes at all, and said to the young girl with some surprise, “Can’t you walk out by yourself?”

     

    “No, it’s too crowded in the elevator, I’m blocked …… the elevator doors close whenever I move to the edge of the elevator so I can’t get out alone ……” the young girl said while crying.

     

    She was dressed very youthful, and the makeup on her face was quite thick. As she cried, her face became all black and red with running makeup and she did not look much better than the ghosts around her.

     

    But compared to the stiff bodies of the ghosts, she looked very dynamic, and was a real live person.

     

    After listening to the young girl’s words, Ji Mingxia thought about it and took two steps forward to the entrance of the elevator.

     

    As soon as the ghosts saw Ji Mingxia approaching, they looked at Ji Mingxia and their gaze instantly became resentful.

     

    Ji Mingxia was stared at by several ghosts and he felt his scalp tingle.  Fortunately he has always been good at hiding emotions. His was wailing in his heart but his face was calm.

     

    He imitated Yu Ning’s calm appearance and said to the young girl, “In that case, I’ll hold the elevator door for you and you can come out.”

     

    With that, Ji Mingxia pressed on the elevator button on the wall.

     

    Once the switch was pressed, the elevator doors immediately remained open.

     

    The young girl saw this and her eyes lit up. She then used all her strength to squeeze out from the “crowd”.

     

    Although the ghosts tried to prevent the girl from escaping, they were just ordinary ghosts and didn’t have much power. With Ji Mingxia’s help, the girl finally jumped out of the elevator with a fierce leap.

     

    Once she came out, Ji Mingxia quickly let go and the elevator doors closed immediately.

     

    Without the girl, the elevator was no longer overloaded, and the ghosts went with the elevator to the basement.

     

    Ji Mingxia looked at the number -2 on the screen and his eyes narrowed slightly.

     

    If he remembered correctly, the library only had one basement level, not two.

     

    Would these ghosts come back up?

     

    The freight elevator stayed at -2 for a moment, and soon returned to the ground floor but it didn’t open again.

     

    After the freight elevator returned to normal, the passenger elevator, which had been stuck on the fifth floor, could also finally be used.

     

    Ji Mingxia originally wanted to go into the library to rest, how could he know that he’d meet a group of ghosts.

     

    He recalled their resentful gazes and suddenly felt that the hot sun outdoors was a lot better.

     

    After confirming that the girl was out of danger, Ji Mingxia dragged his suitcase and left the library.

     

    After Ji Mingxia left, the young girl stood in place for a long time to catch her breath before gradually coming back to her senses.

     

    Her body regained its strength and she straightened up to thank Ji Mingxia. However, when she looked up, she found that the surroundings were empty and she was the only one standing in place.

     

    The young girl was stunned and couldn’t help but pat her face to make sure that what had just happened was not an illusion on her part.

     

    At that moment, the passenger elevator came down from the 5th floor and the elevator door opened when it reached the ground floor.

     

    Several students filed out of the elevator holding their books.

     

    On seeing the young girl standing outside the elevator, one of the students hesitated and whispered, “Ye Tian?”

     

    The young girl heard someone call her name and she instantly reacted.  Without waiting for the student to take a picture with her camera, she turned around and immediately ran away.Shortly after Ji Mingxia walked out of the library, he happened to pass a a group of media reporters with cameras.

     

    “Ye Tian is in the library!”

     

    “Some students saw her, but unfortunately, they only saw her back and didn’t get to take any pictures.”

     

    The journalists and media were walking and talking as they all flocked to the library.

     

    Without media reporters blocking passersby to take pictures, Ji Mingxia suddenly relaxed. He went through the crowd and quickly arrived at the boys’ dormitory.

     

    Ji Mingxia’s new dormitory was room 502, and he had three roommates. He dragged his suitcase to the door of the dormitory and found two people already unpacking their luggage.

     

    One of these two people was taller, with a Chinese face a burly stuture and a calm temperament; the other was slightly shorter with a typical southerners’ body shape. He was dark and thin, but his eyes were big and very bright.

     

     Ji Mingxia saw these two people and he froze for a moment. He couldn’t help but say with surprise, “You two are also in this dormitory?”

     

    The two students turned their heads and saw Ji Mingxia looking at them happily. They were confused and said with uncertainty, “Yes, you are also in this dormitory?”

     

    Ji Mingxia looked at the familiar faces of his two roommates and couldn’t help but smile. “Well, hello guys, my name is Ji Mingxia.”

     

    In his original world, Ji Mingxia was a major in this university but his dormitory was room 303. Because the number of male students in his class an odd number, his dormitory happened to have a vacant bed so the four-person dormitory had a total of three people including Ji Mingxia.

     

    The freshman dormitory was randomly assigned by the school computer so Ji Mingxia was placed in 502 in this life. He thought that he’d be separated from his original roommates, but unexpectedly, they met again.

     

    The tall one with the Chinese face was called Lin Cheng, and he had a stable character; the shorter one with darker skin was called Luo Zixuan, he was very witty and enthusiastic.

     

    Although these two people come from the north and the south and had different personalities, they got along very well and were as warm and lovely as Zhao Zhuoye and the others.

     

    Ji Mingxia was in a good mood. He had returned to the familiar school and met familiar roommates. He dragged his suitcase into the room and saw Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan standing in front of the two beds on the left, so he casually put his backpack on the bed that was on the right side by the balcony.

     

    In next moment, the two roommates cried out in unison, “Wait!”

     

    Ji Mingxia was almost putting his backpack on the bed when he heard his roommates’ cry and he turned his head in a strange manner: “What’s wrong?”

     

    “That bed is for the god of learning, you can change to another bed.” Luo Zixuan said.

     

    “The God of Learning?” Ji Mingxia froze for a moment. He never expected to hear about the god of learning within the three-person dormitory.

     

    “Yeah, the god of learning is in the same dormitory as us. Lin Cheng and I discussed it and decided to give the best bed to the god of learning.” Luo Zixuan said. Ji Mingxia was staring at him blankly, so he explained because so that Ji Mingxia wouldn’t get angry.  “We arrived earlier than you and according to the rules, we can choose two beds first. We only choose one so you can choose among the remaining three.”

     

    “I ……” Ji Mingxia looked at Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan in shock and confusion.

     

    According to the memory of his previous world, he, Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan had similar petsonalities even though they came from different parts of the province and spoke with different accents.

     

    They were very Buddhist, lazy, didn’t follow the wind, and didn’t like going out.

     

    Ji Mingxia had already heard about the god of learning from the school sister, but he never thought that he'd be sharing a dormitory with him.

     

    And what was even more frightening was that Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan…… actually helped the God of Learning choose the best bed in advance and then waited for him to arrive?

     

    This was not their usual style ah!

     

    Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia took a look at the dormitory and suddenly realized that something was not right.

     

    They were new students and the freshman dormitory hadn’t been occupied for at least two months so it should have been piled with dust.

     

    The girls, who love cleanliness, usually cleaned the dormitory before moving in, but it wasn’t the usual case for the male students. They could even sleep on a mat without complaints.

     

    In his original world, Ji Mingxia was the last to arrival. Luo Zixuan and Lin Cheng had never done housework, and just unpacking their luggage made them exhausted, let alone cleaning.

     

    In the end, Ji Mingxia who could not stand the dirty environment mobilized them into cleaning the dormitory together, and only then was the whole dormitory clean and bright.

     

    But at this moment, Ji Mingxia suddenly found that the whole dormitory was clean and bright. Every detail was wiped. The two lazy roommates had taken the initiative to clean without Ji Mingxia persuasion? 

     

    When did these two young masters become so diligent?!

     

    Ji Mingxia was amazed. Luo Zixuan was still waiting for his answer so he had to first answer: “I’m okay with any ……”

     

    Ji Mingxia really didn’t care where he slept, he is more concerned about his two roommates’ abnormality.

     

    Ji Mingxia couldn’t help but ask a question that felt terrifying: “You two…are you fans of the god of Learning?” 

     

    It was even more frightening when Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan nodded their heads together!

     

    Ji Mingxia stared at them like he’d seen a ghost and Luo Zixuan suddenly became upset: “The god of learning is the provincial top student ah! Qingbei tried to snatch him but he chose our school. The whole country is shocked, okay? Haven’t you seen his online information?”

     

    Ji Mingxia forgot to shake his head because he was too shocked.

     

    Luo Zixuan also did not intend to wait for Ji Mingxia’s answer, he tacitly thought that Ji Mingxia must have read it.

     

    Luo Zixuan continued, “That’s why Lin Cheng and I decided to take good care of the god of learning. We want him to feel the warmth of home amd hope that he can spend the next four years happily. He should have good memories in the university!”

     

    Ji Mingxia looked at Luo Zixuan’s loving expression and goosebumps rose all over his body. He thought he was having an absurd dream. 

     

    His two good brothers, with whom he lazed around at ate melons, had become strangers overnight, and were now chasing after their classmate like groupies?

     

    “Provincial top students are not so rare……” Ji Mingxia would never say this if it were anyone else but these two people were so different from what he remembered. He couldn’t bear it and said, “Why don’t we treat him like an ordinary classmate, there’s no need to make him feel so special, right?”

     

    Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan looked at each other, and gave an “mmm” before turning around to continue unpacking their luggage.

     

    Although they did not refute Ji Mingxia, they also did not continue to talk to him.

     

    Ji Mingxia looked at the two silent roommates, and felt as if he was being ostracized.

     

    What was the origin of this provincial champion? Girls like him, and boys like him as well?!

     

    For Ji Mingxia, Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan were people he knew very well, but at the moment, they were extraordinarily silent as they did their own thing and the whole dormitory was quiet.

     

    This was not the college life that Ji Mingxia wanted. Before the conflict deepened, Ji Mingxia took the initiative to explain: “I spent the summer vacation farming in my hometown. I didn’t surf the internet much and I came to school after getting the acceptance letter ….so I don’t know much about what has been happening. “

     

    At his words, Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan looked at Ji Mingxia in surprise.

     

    Ji Mingxia said: “You guys talk about the god of learning and although I’m not quite sure what’s going on, my best friend was also a provincial top student, so I just thought its nothing special.”

     

    Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan listened to Ji Mingxia’s explanation, and suddenly felt that their reaction was a bit over the top.

     

    Luo Zixuan hurriedly said: “So it’s like that ……the god of learning used to be very miserable. He was isolated since childhood, bullied at school, teachers and classmates did not like him but even so, he still got such good grades and came to our school…Me and Lin Chen joined the freshman group so we have known each other for a long time. Every one sighs whenever the god of learning is brought up in the group, so we all want to take care of him a bit more.”

     

    “If you want to understand, we can pull you into the freshman group. Many people in our department have joined because the god of learning was a sensation so he has many fans. Most of the people in our school admire him so it will be easier if you know more about the situation.” Lin Cheng hinted to Ji Mingxia.

     

    Ji Mingxia smiled and immediately understood what Lin Cheng meant.

     

    The god of learning was now in the limelight, so Ji Mingxia had to be cautious with his words.

     

    He looked at Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan in front of him, then thought about the scene on campus, and was speechless for a moment.

     

    He seemed to have underestimated the charm of the god of learning.

     

    Where did this all-encompassing god of learning come from, he simply came a charm and loving attribute, it was too terrifying!!!

     

    Lin Cheng felt that their behavior was inappropriate earlier, so he took the initiative to ask Ji Mingxia: “So your best friend was also a provincial top student?! How powerful, which province are you from ah?”

     

    Ji Mingxia reported the name of the province.

     

    Luo Zixuan and Lin Cheng planned to hear Ji Mingxia’s answer, and then they would also announce themselves, so that they could chat more and become familiar with each other.

     

    As a result, they froze after hearing Ji Mingxia’s province: “Really? ……”

     

    “Yes!” Ji Mingxia didn’t understand, what was so surprising so he added, “Yu Ning was first in our province. Qingbei university tried to snatch him too! It also made news but you may not have heard about it. He is very good and handsome. I don’t know which school he finally chose…”

     

    Ji Mingxia said, and unconsciously looked down at his hands.

     

    His hand was still on the suitcase. The black suitcase set off his white hands a d the blood red ring looked particularly striking.

     

    “Yu…Yu Ning ……?” Luo Zixuan stammered.

     

    “Well, yeah.” Ji Mingxia nodded his head.

     

    The next moment, he felt that Luo Zixuan’s voice was a bit strange so he looked up. 

     

    He found that Luo Zixuan was not looking at him at all and his heart skipped a beat. As if sensing something, he jerked his head back and saw a figure standing by the dormitory door.

     

    Ji Mingxia was now more than 1.8 meters tall. Even in the north, he was not short. This person was a little taller than Ji Mingxia and he was dressed in a simple white T shirt. The sun came in from behind, and the backlight outlined him perfectly.

     

    The black hair fell over his forehead in fine lines, and unlike the previous delicate but ghostly face two months ago, his facial lines seemed to be sharper, giving him an aura of a cold and mature man.

     

    A pair of dark eyes fell on Ji Mingxia, and the indifferent expression was suddenly tinged with a layer of warmth.

     

    The corners of Yu Ning’s lips curled slightly, and he whispered his name in a low, gentle voice: “Mingxia.”
