Luo Yang chatted with Yang Mi all the way until the train arrived at Tian Du.

After getting off the train, Liu Qin waved to Luo Yang and said, "Goodbye, contact me if you have the chance."

"Goodbye." Luo Yang smiled and waved back; the two had already exchanged contact information on the train.

Yang Mi's personality was very generous and talkative, which was no wonder... After all, in this world, Yang Mi was a broadcaster, and being articulate was the most basic requirement.

After leaving the station, Luo Yang took a taxi to Tian Du University.

At the entrance of Tian Du University stood a huge statue, carved in the shape of a dragon coiled on the ground.

This was the most classic symbol of Tian Du University, symbolizing that the students of this college were all coiled dragons, ready to soar into the sky once they graduated.

Above the entrance, a large banner read "Welcome Freshmen."

As Luo Yang approached the entrance, a girl wearing a student council badge stepped forward and asked, "Classmate, are you a freshman this year?"

Several girls nearby were looking at Luo Yang with stars in their eyes, whispering, "This freshman is so handsome!"

In any school, it was always the case that freshmen girls were the most reserved, sophomores the most outgoing, and juniors were notoriously fierce.

Pretending not to hear the girls' comments, Luo Yang smiled calmly and said, "Yes, senior, I am a freshman in the Fine Arts Department."

Unlike other freshmen who were nervous and uneasy, Luo Yang remained very calm.

As a man who had graduated from university several years ago in his previous life, his mental age was naturally older than these students still in the ivory tower, and he displayed a just-right maturity.

"The Fine Arts Department is close by, so you don't need to take a bus. Follow the central avenue of the campus all the way to the Science Building to pay your tuition. If you want to live on campus, someone will help you choose a dorm room. The campus is large, so if you get lost, you can ask for directions. There are student council members everywhere to help freshmen," the senior girl instructed.

"Thank you."

Luo Yang thanked her and walked into the campus according to her directions.

Tian Du University was the largest university in the entire Long Country. There were many school buses on campus, but according to the senior girl, the Fine Arts Department didn't require a bus.

Ten minutes later, Luo Yang finally found the Science Building the senior girl had mentioned, and after queuing up, he finally paid his tuition.

"Your dormitory for the Fine Arts Department is over there, follow me." This was a senior with glasses, very enthusiastic, introducing the culture of Tian Du University while leading the way.

The campus of Tian Du University was very beautiful.

After being away for many years, Luo Yang felt an indescribable sense of wonder at returning to campus.

"Perhaps, the university life in this lifetime will be very beautiful," Luo Yang smiled.

After arriving at the dormitory, Luo Yang thanked the senior.

Indeed, university was a wonderful place, free from the many intrigues of the outside world. Everyone would work hard and seriously for the tasks assigned by the school, even without any reward.

Once they entered society, these students would realize that the kindness taught in university was often abandoned by most people in society.

The environment of Tian Du University was excellent, and the dormitory conditions were also very good. Luo Yang's dormitory number was 212.

There were four independent bedrooms, a small living room, and a bathroom, much better than the shared rooms of his previous life.

Luo Yang arrived at the dormitory and chose the innermost room. The bedding and pillows were all provided by the school, so he didn't need to buy them.

In the living room, Luo Yang lit a cigarette and started smoking by the window.

"Hello, I'm Zhu Changhong, a local from Tian Du." Another roommate appeared, a chubby boy with an innocent smile.

"I'm Luo Yang, from Su Province." Luo Yang stubbed out his cigarette and offered one to Zhu Changhong.

"I don't smoke, thanks." Zhu Changhong quickly waved his hands.

"Bang..."

At that moment, a sound came from the door. A boy with glasses, carrying a large bag, stopped at the dormitory door, drenched in sweat.

Luo Yang and Zhu Changhong quickly went to help.

"You must be our roommate too, right? Come, let us help you." Zhu Changhong said.

"Oh, thank you, thank you..." The boy with glasses thanked them repeatedly, "Hello, I'm Ren Changjiang, from Ji Province."

"We'll be more than just classmates, we'll be roommates, so no need for thanks," Zhu Changhong said with a smile.

Half an hour later, the last roommate finally arrived.

This was a somewhat handsome boy who, upon entering, immediately became very friendly, "Hello, I'm Wang Yu, from Fu Province."

Luo Yang and the others also introduced themselves, and the four of them got to know each other.

"Everyone is here."

Saying this, Ren Changjiang took out a pile of snacks from his luggage and placed them on the table, "Don't be shy, everyone, have some. These are specialties from Ji Province."

"Wow, these are red sausages, right? They look delicious." Wang Yu laughed first, picking up a red sausage and eating it.

Luo Yang and Zhu Changhong also picked up the snacks they were interested in, "Your province's specialties are really good, very fragrant!"

After eating, the four of them all gave Ren Changjiang a thumbs up.

"Let's go out for drinks tonight, my treat. I'll also show you around as a local. If you want to go out to play or date in the future, I can guide you," Zhu Changhong suggested.

Drinking was undoubtedly the best way to foster friendship.

Luo Yang and the others had no objections.

That night, the four roommates appeared at a mid-range restaurant in Tian Du, ordered two bottles of white wine, and filled their glasses, toasting each other.

Drinking was no big deal, but once they started, the three of them discovered that Luo Yang had a very high alcohol tolerance. He drank for a long time without showing any signs of intoxication.

On the contrary, the three of them were already slightly red-faced and a bit dizzy.

"Luo Yang, how can you drink so much? You've had three or four glasses, and I haven't seen any reaction from you!" Zhu Changhong said with admiration.

Wang Yu, who had the best alcohol tolerance after Luo Yang, also gave a thumbs up, "Luo Yang, your alcohol tolerance is definitely well-trained!"

Luo Yang smiled bitterly.

The reason for his high alcohol tolerance could be attributed to Liu Qin.

In his previous life, he and his brothers often went out for barbecues and hotpot, which naturally involved drinking. None of them would back down, so they would keep pouring drinks for each other.

Thus, Luo Yang's current alcohol tolerance was the result of countless nights of heavy drinking.

"I can't let you off so easily, brothers, let's keep drinking!" Ren Changjiang, with a red face and a thick neck, clearly a bit drunk, said.

The others cheered, filled their glasses with white wine, and took turns drinking with Luo Yang.

"Let's finish this glass!" Zhu Changhong slurred.

"It's my turn."

"I'll do it!"

Luo Yang didn't refuse the drinking game, and he drank each glass in one go. As a result, Wang Yu, Ren Changjiang, and Zhu Changhong were soon knocked out, lying on the table snoring.

Looking at the three people lying on the table, Luo Yang shook his head, "Why go through this?"

Alcohol was either something you trained for, like himself, or you had a natural talent for it. Otherwise, don't be so stubborn.

However, there were benefits...

Through this drinking session, the relationship among the four roommates in dorm 212 clearly became much closer.
