After saying this, Su Yang thought to himself, 'Well, I mean... it's not like it wouldn't work. But if we split it that way, would I get a wink of sleep tonight?'
The others froze for a second upon hearing Su Yang's remark.
"...Oh right. How did I forget about you? If you stay in the same room as them... uh, wouldn't that be a bit inconvenient?" Meng Wenzhou felt this arrangement wasn't quite appropriate.
Although the girls didn't say anything, having a guy in the room really wasn't suitable.
Su Yang ultimately dismissed the thought; it was enough just to imagine it.
He looked at Meng Wenzhou and the others. "Yeah, not a good idea. How about I just squeeze in with you guys?"
"Squeeze in with us? Three people in one bed? Isn't that getting a little too cozy?" Zhang Ziming laughed.
Just then, Pan Ning, who hadn't spoken yet, said calmly, "Wait a second. Are you guys stupid?"
"What?"
"Why don't you six guys just take the triple rooms?"
"Oh, right!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized. It was such a simple solution, yet no one had thought of it in the moment.
"But if we do that, won't we be separating Old Chu and Yueyue?" Liu Bo said, looking at Chu Qiunan.
Chu Qiunan shook his head nonchalantly. "I'm not that unreasonable. Let's do what works best for the group."
Gao Yue nodded as well. "Yeah, it's not like we have to stay together. Just arrange whatever works for everyone."
Su Yang nodded with a smile. "Exactly. We were locked into that precondition, thinking those two couldn't be separated. So that settles it. We six guys take the triple rooms, and the six girls take the remaining double and single rooms. That works perfectly."
"Yeah, yeah, exactly. That makes the most sense," Meng Wenzhou agreed.
Naturally, the others had no objections. Ji Bo and the other guys, in particular, breathed a sigh of relief.
If they had really split it the other way, it wouldn't just be Su Yang losing sleep tonight; they probably wouldn't sleep either... definitely not, out of sheer envy.
After the guys were sorted, Meng Qianyu looked at the girls and asked, "So how do we split up? Which two take the single rooms?"
"The single rooms don't come with hot springs, you know."
"Wait a minute!" Su Yang thought for a moment and raised his hand.
"What now?"
"You're being silly again. You six girls should take the triple rooms! Then you can all use the hot springs. We guys don't care, and this homestay seems to have a large public hot spring anyway, just not a private one in the room."
"Oh, right?"
Sometimes, the brain really does just short-circuit.
In the end, the six girls took the triple rooms, while Su Yang, Meng Wenzhou, Liu Bo, and Zhang Ziming took the double room.
Chu Qiunan's situation didn't change; he was still in a single room, except the beauty Gao Yue by his side was replaced by the burly Little Ji Bo...
After assigning the rooms, everyone took their key cards and went to drop off their luggage.
Chu Qiunan and Ji Bo didn't need to go outside; their rooms were on the third floor of the main building. The other ten people headed toward the lawn behind the homestay.
Following a small stone path, they quickly arrived in front of a row of wooden cabins—the "Wilderness Tent Rooms."
Checking the room numbers on the signs by the doors, they walked all the way to the right to the last two units.
The boys' and girls' rooms happened to be the two right at the edge.
"Drop your stuff and rest a bit. Same as always—let's figure out what to eat tonight before we head out."
"Okay!"
Everyone agreed and went into their respective rooms.
The four guys entered the beautiful wooden cabin. It was quite spacious, constructed entirely of wood and glass, with floor-to-ceiling windows on the east, west, and south sides.
Only the innermost side facing the main door was a solid wooden wall. The ceiling was also made of wood and glass.
There was a large skylight with a retractable black shade underneath.
At night, you could lie in bed, open the shade, and admire the beautiful starry sky. This kind of cabin was indeed very nice, and naturally, the price wasn't cheap.
At the very back of the cabin was a door. Pushing it open revealed a private hot spring pool capable of accommodating three to four people at once.
The pool was surrounded by wood, with only a small skylight overhead—similar to the one in the room—allowing guests to gaze at the stars while soaking.
After looking around, the guys nodded in satisfaction.
Meng Wenzhou walked over to the door to study the switches on the wall. After he pressed a few, the curtains on the floor-to-ceiling window facing the girls' room next door slowly opened.
At that exact moment, the girls next door also opened their curtains. The guys and girls immediately waved to each other, though the soundproofing was quite good.
Next door, Meng Qianyu appeared to be shouting something, but the guys could barely hear a thing.
Su Yang waved and smiled at the group next door, then walked over to the sofa by the window and sat down.
Liu Bo ran over, sat next to Su Yang, took out a cigarette, and grinned. "Heh heh, Brother Yang, how about it? Feeling regretful?"
"Regretful about what?"
"What do you think? You were supposed to be in that room next door."
Su Yang lit his cigarette and laughed. "To be honest, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tempted. But even if I stayed over there, what could I do? I'd just have to lie there behaving myself. Going over there would just cause a lot of problems."
"What problems?"
"Setting everything else aside, do you think you could sleep at night surrounded by five beauties of that caliber?"
"Nope, couldn't sleep."
"Exactly."
"But I'd still want to try it, even just lying there. A chance like that comes once in a lifetime," Liu Bo grinned mischievously.
"Insomnia is torture. I'd rather room with you guys. It's free, and I can smoke."
Meng Wenzhou walked over, took a cigarette from the pack, and nodded with a smile. "That's right. It's great that we're rooming together. We can talk about whatever we want."
"Even though the girls didn't say anything, Pan Pan and Qianyu are there. If those two weren't around, I wouldn't say much, but since they are, staying in the same room really wouldn't be appropriate."
"True, true. We haven't roomed together in ages. Chatting, soaking in the hot spring, watching the stars tonight—it's gonna be awesome." Zhang Ziming took a sip of water and laughed.
"Yeah. Anyway, enough about that. What are we eating later?"
"Does Kangding have any local specialties? I've never been here, so I don't know."
"Look it up. There's tons of info online."
Meng Wenzhou took out his phone. "I'll look into it. You guys don't need to worry about it."
"Cool, we trust your arrangements."
As they chatted idly, they occasionally turned to look at the other room, which was only about three meters away.
They could see the girls rummaging through their bags, taking out clothes, cosmetics, and everything else.
"Their room is definitely a bit bigger, huh."
"For sure, it's a triple-bed room."
"Hey, take a guess. How will they split up?"
"Split up what?"
"Who sleeps in the same bed with whom."
"That's easy. Pan Pan will definitely be with Qianyu, Little Su with Little Tang, and Xiao Qing with Gao Yue."
Su Yang blurted out his predicted arrangement without a second thought.
"Not necessarily. Qianyu has been staying with Little Tang for the past few days. Maybe they've bonded," Meng Wenzhou laughed.
Meanwhile, the girls had finished unpacking and were just about to pick out their beds.
However, before they could sort out the sleeping arrangements, Su Qingci was the first to notice what the guys next door were up to.
She immediately covered her mouth, letting out a giggle. "Hey, look next door, quick!"
Hearing this, the other girls turned their heads to look.
There were the four guys, lying on their stomachs on the sofa with only their heads poking up. They were grinning, staring unblinkingly right at the girls.
"Oh my god, that's so creepy! What are they doing?" Meng Qianyu was startled by the sight.
"Close the curtains! What a bunch of perverts."

his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall? Cashback: +$2,880】 【Dropped $14,396 on in-game skins? Special reward unlocked: A brand-new Porsche Panamera!】 Luxury cars, penthouses, corporate shares, financial empires… College life was all about living freely and doing whatever he pleased! … When the adorably naive academic genius faced family medical bills and financial struggles, Su Bai waved his hand dismissively: "Your future is on me." "Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”

Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
