On the second floor of the north Tower, Wu Jin waved his paw and said goodbye to Red.

The door to the dormitory bedroom slammed shut.

In order to encourage sleep, the twin towers were heated after 9PM. The window blinds opened and closed slightly with the late-summer early-autumn breeze, bringing with it the light fragrance of lilies as it swirled through the room and was caught in damp moisture of the air.

The small curls hadn’t dried yet and were wet and scattered while Wu Jin chattered on. They grew even more chaotic with the breeze.

The youth’s small round face was flushed from his shower, and he followed behind Wei Shi wherever he went, his two feet pitter pattering and skillfully stepping into slippers, like an electric rabbit toy that was set to follow a predetermined program.

Wei Shi bowed his head, his gaze sweeping from top to bottom, illusory, faint flames seeming to flicker within.

“!!” Wu Jin shrunk back instinctively, his head becoming even more of a mess.

He’d already washed himself clean before coming... and purposely put on a pair of autumn pants! Because the big boss had once told him that he had to have pants on... Brother Rabbit was still young, and he couldn’t lead the rabbit astray!

The electric rabbit toy Wu Jin was very nervous, secretly checking over his mechanical springs and clutching nervously at his autumn pants. His heart pounded and thumped chaotically.

Calm down! Tonight he’d come over to build up goodwill––he couldn’t let the big boss hate him because of the CP hype!

When he’d been in front of the door, Wu Jin had made it a point to look at the votes for the team activity and gained a little peace of mind.

White Moonlight double assault had been making rapid progress with 6 million new votes, pushing past the Scarf CP. This helped show that he wasn’t a calculating little follower who had tied himself to big brother just for the sake of traffic!

Although he didn’t know why he felt lost for some reason––Wu Jin shook his head quickly, countless rabbit balls in his heart clutching at the cuffs of his autumn pants and trying to pull Wu Jin back on track.

He was here to build goodwill! He was here to build goodwill!!

Wu Jin took a look around.

The big boss’s bedroom wasn’t the same as usual. The training equipment in the cabinets had been emptied out and packed into cartons on the ground, stacked up in twos or threes. There was a note stuck on them––‘South Tower 303’.

Wu Jin’s expression suddenly became happier.

Big boss had been promoted to B rank and was going to move to South Tower!

Crosson trainees did as they liked and would usually enjoy some ‘social time’ after curfew and lights out, chatting and whiling time away in the dark. The twin towers weren’t connected after the curfew, but once the big boss moved into the South Tower––he could build up goodwill every day! During the day! At night! Using snacks from the canteen! By bringing the rabbit! Building up goodwill until the meter filled up and overflowed!

Wu Jin didn’t hesitate to roll up his sleeves, happy and delighted as he went over to help carry a box, “Big brother, let me do it!”

The box wasn’t heavy, and Wu Jin’s movements were as fast as lightning. His eyes shone as though he’d seen task items in a strategy game. Very soon, his entire person was plopped down on top of the box.

The soft small curls that still carried a trace of dampness were very close to Wei Shi, Wu Jin’s elbows were white and tender in this non-combative state, and he hugged the box and was unwilling to let go. He was wearing trousers that were pulled out from who knew where, showing a small waist beneath the elastic. Above it was a shallow curve, eye-catching as it moved.
