Chapter 60 Squad Leader Wang's Tears

Chapter 60 Squad Leader Wang's Tears

Let's go back to Shrek Academy three days ago.

It was the start of the new school year again. Early in the morning, a large crowd had already poured into the gates of Shrek Academy. In addition to the senior students of Shrek Academy, there were also students who were registering. Of course, the vast majority of these students were nobles, while commoners only accounted for a very small part.

Whether this is considered tragic or not is unknown, but if this scene were witnessed by Su Yu, he would only feel sorrow, not just disappointment in Shrek Academy, but even more so in the three great empires…

Some senior students were assisting the teachers with the assessment at the entrance. Although they were just students, the fact that they were able to represent Shrek Academy here at least proved that they had sufficient strength.

Next came the entrance exams for new students and the return of returning students; everything proceeded smoothly, like a well-oiled machine.

A figure dashed forward at an astonishing speed from the shore of Poseidon Lake, quickly crossing Shrek Square and arriving at the dormitory building.

"You idiot, I'll definitely get here before you! It's only the 26th day of our vacation, I'll definitely be here before you. I'm not what I used to be, I won't lose to you this time. When you get here, I'll give you a big 'surprise'!"

Wang Dong emphasized the word "surprise" with extra force, suggesting that this was definitely not a surprise at all, but more like a shock.

"Hello, grandpa." Wang Dong rushed straight to the dormitory building without stopping, filled with excitement.

The old gatekeeper, Mu En, showed a meaningful expression, but quickly returned to normal, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he returned to his original half-asleep state.

If Su Yu were here, he could probably guess what Mu En was thinking just by looking at his expression.

Su Yu's guess was probably something like this: Mu En: A woman dressed as a man, interesting...

He was still wearing that familiar first-year school uniform, and his short, light blue hair had grown a little longer. It seemed that even his figure had become a bit more slender after a month apart. His bright, light blue eyes were full of youthful energy, and his eyes were brimming with excitement and pride.

It's been almost a month since we parted ways. If it weren't for not wanting to be left behind by that guy Su Yu, he wouldn't have cultivated so desperately and rushed all the way here.

"I'll definitely get here before you, you bastard, hmph..."

Looking at the layer of dust that had accumulated on the door, Wang Dong took out his key and opened the door.

The dormitory room was quiet, just as it had been when they left, unchanged.

A layer of dust had already accumulated on the ground, on the table, and on the windowsill.

Both his blanket and Su Yu's blanket were covered with a sheet, but when the sheet was lifted, they looked brand new.

But where are the people?

No, this handsome guy arrived even earlier than him, of course, that guy wasn't here.

"Oh well, in the end, it's still this handsome guy who has to clean up, tch..."

Wang Dong started cleaning the dormitory with a disdainful look. If Su Yu were here, he would probably be amused by Wang Dong's clumsy appearance. He really is a young master who never lifts a finger.

After an afternoon of cleaning, our young master Wang Dong finally finished cleaning the dormitory and even helped Su make the bed.

"I'm exhausted! I never knew cleaning was this tiring. Why does Su Yu seem to clean so easily?"

Wang Dong's big eyes were filled with great confusion. They were both cleaning, so why was there such a big difference? It shouldn't be like that.

Calculating the time, Wang Dong arrived a day earlier than agreed, but he knew that with Su Yu's personality, he would either come early or not come at all; it was impossible for him not to come.

However, Wang Dong was unaware that the Su person he longed for was currently in the Sun Moon Empire, sparring with Sword Immortal Ji Juechen and honing his will...

At Su Yu's pace, it would take at least four or five days for him to return.

The days of waiting were indeed long; twenty-seven days of vacation had passed, and there was still no sign of Su Yu...

Sitting on the steps of the dormitory building, Wang Dong hugged his knees and looked in the direction of Shrek Academy's gate in the distance.

Wang Dong was somewhat bewildered. "You promised me you still owe me a wish, how can you renege on your promise?"

He didn't know how long he had been sitting there; the excitement he had shown when he returned was long gone, and everything on his face had become dull.

"Grandpa, have you seen Su Yu? The one who always comes back with you."

Clinging to his last glimmer of hope, Wang Dong asked the old man at the door, Mu En, but the old man just shook his head. Finally, Wang Dong made up his mind, stood up, and ran off in one direction.

Without even knocking, Wang Dong rushed in and asked, "Teacher Zhou, didn't Su Yu say he was going home? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

The first-year students standing in front of Zhou Yi were all startled. Given Zhou Yi's temper, she would definitely teach such unruly students a lesson, but today Zhou Yi was surprisingly not angry.

Zhou Yi stood up, looking at Wang Dong with some confusion, and said, "Su Yu's family said Su Yu has already returned, but hasn't he?"

"What? Come back? But Su Yu hasn't come back!"

Wang Dong's beautiful big eyes were round and full. Then the two of them were stunned for a moment, and then spoke in unison.

"We were all tricked by that kid?"

Snapped!

Zhou Yi slammed her hand on the table, and the poor table shattered with a crack, startling the first-year students so much that their legs trembled, completely bewildered by what had just happened...

"You all go back first, I have some things to take care of!"

Zhou Yi waved her hand, then led Wang Dong to the Soul Guidance Department. There, Zhou Yi angrily found Fan Yu.

"Fanyu, did Su Yu say anything to you when he left?"

Fan Yu put down the soul tool in his hand, looked at Zhou Yi with some confusion, and said, "When Su Yu left, he only said he was going home to rest during the holidays, and didn't say much else to me. Why hasn't that kid come back yet?"

Could this guy have gone hunting for spirit rings again? But his spirit power couldn't possibly increase that quickly, could it?

Afterwards, Zhou Yi pressed Tang Ya and Bei Bei, the young couple, for answers for a long time, but she didn't get any useful information and eventually had to give up.

"Wang Dong, you should go back first. I hope that little rascal Su Yu hasn't gotten into any trouble. Since his family said he's already left, he's probably traveling somewhere. Don't worry, nothing will happen to him."

Zhou Yi was also helpless. Su Yu was the most troublesome kid in the class, but at the same time, he was also the most reliable person. Although she didn't agree with Su Yu as much as she agreed with Huo Yuhao, Su Yu was the person she trusted the most after Huo Yuhao.

At the same time, she suddenly remembered another person, Huo Yuhao!

"Those two little rascals are such a handful!"

After slamming the office door shut, Zhou Yi felt like she was about to be driven mad by these two guys.

Looking at Zhou Yi's angry expression, Wang Dong was also at a loss, because he couldn't be sure what had happened. Based on his understanding of Su Yu, he was definitely not the kind of unreliable person, but why hadn't he come back yet?

Lying on my bed in the dorm, I close my eyes and open them again, and another day has passed...

Why haven't you come back yet? It's been three days already...

Sitting on the dormitory steps, Wang Dong gazed in the direction of Shrek Academy's gate. In his eyes, he seemed to see that confident boy with a smile always on his lips walking towards him.

His mind was always filled with memories of studying together, and the times they would fight in the dormitory at the slightest disagreement.

You promised me you still owe me a wish. I'm back, but what about you?

You can't go back on your word! We agreed to study together...

A tear slid down silently, the sky darkened, and the boy's figure disappeared into the night.

On the shores of Poseidon Lake, in that familiar place, a campfire appeared. But beside the fire, only a lonely figure stood. The fire was burning, but the person who used to be with me was nowhere to be seen. Will you really come back?

It's not that Su isn't coming back, but rather that Su is currently rushing frantically towards Shrek City, and is expected to arrive tomorrow.

This was only after Su Yu forced his father to spend a lot of money to ask a Title Douluo to bring him back from Mingdu; otherwise, Su Yu would still be on his way here on horseback.

As night deepened, the campfire died down, and the figure by the shore of Poseidon Lake disappeared.

Lying in bed, Wang Dong tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Memories kept surfacing in his mind: the times he and Su Yu had played around together, won championships together, cultivated together, Su Yu had devoted his energy to helping him regulate his Xuan Tian Gong, Su Yu had personally cooked for him by the Sea God Lake and promised to grant him a wish.

If I could still make a wish now, I would wish for you to come back...

With each blink of an eye, another long day had passed. Faint tear stains still clung to Wang Dong's eyes as he huddled in his dormitory, clutching his blanket.

Everywhere here is filled with Su Yu's presence; the things are still there, but he is no longer here.

Just as Wang Dong was feeling a bit lost, Su Yu burst into the dormitory and kicked the door open with a bang.

Wang Dong rubbed his eyes in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Then he pinched his face until he actually felt the pain, and only then did he realize that he wasn't dreaming.

"Thank goodness I wasn't late. What's wrong with my dear class monitor? Why is she crying so much after a month apart?"

Looking at Wang Dong, whose eyes still bore traces of tears, Su Yu gave Wang Dong a flippant smile, then gently reached out and wiped away the tears from Wang Dong's eyes.

As he spoke, Su Yu sat down next to Wang Dong and thoughtfully smoothed out Wang Dong's slightly frizzy short hair.

"Su Yu! It really is you!"

Wang Dong stared wide-eyed in disbelief, almost unable to believe what he was seeing. But when he reached out and pinched his own face, feeling the real pain, he finally accepted it.

Su Yu reached out and put his hand on Wang Dong's shoulder, saying irritably, "Squad Leader Wang Dong, are you really hoping your handsome roommate will die? I'm back and you're still cursing me. Don't you have any conscience?"

"You bastard, I'll beat you to death, you bastard, you bastard..."

A strong force came and Su Yu was pushed down onto the bed. Wang Dong sat on him and kept punching him. It looked like a storm, but Su Yu didn't feel much force at all.

Is this Dong'er's way of playfully punching your chest with her little fists?

"You big bad guy, I'll kill you! I'm so angry, you big bad guy, you made me worry for nothing!"

Su Yu covered his face with his hands, thinking that Wang Dong would stop after a couple of hits, but he got more and more excited and eventually started using his soul power.

One punch nearly knocked out Su Yu, who was completely unprepared.

"If you hit me again, I'll hit back."

Although he knew why Wang Dong was angry, if he continued to be beaten like this, he would probably have to go to class with bandages on his back tomorrow.

"Fine, I'll fight back then, humph..."

The force of his fist hadn't lessened at all, but Wang Dong's voice had already turned into a sob.

She cried, and cried again...

With a somersault, Su Yu flung Wang Dong off him and then sat down opposite Wang Dong.

"You want to hit me again? I'm going to fight back!"

Grabbing Wang Dong's hands, Su Yu pressed Wang Dong down onto the bed, and surprisingly, Wang Dong did not resist.

"You bastard, you actually came back after all? I thought you weren't coming back. You, you..."

Tears welled up in his eyes again. He didn't know why he felt so hateful towards the guy in front of him, yet he couldn't let go of him. His suppressed emotions exploded instantly.

He didn't know what kind of power was blooming in his heart. Wang Dong broke free from Su Yu's control, sat on the bed, pulled Su Yu directly over, hugged him tightly, and buried his face in Su Yu's shoulder.

It has to be said that Wang Dong is really strong; Su Yu even felt a little out of breath.

"I didn't say I wasn't coming back, why are you so angry?" Su Yu just wanted Wang Dong to let go; if he kept tightening his grip like that, he really would suffocate.

"You still have the nerve to say that? Your family told you you set off seven or eight days ago, and you actually took seven or eight days to get from the Star Luo Imperial Capital to Shrek City. Do you think I didn't know? You even dared to fool us! You have some nerve!"

Wang Dong angrily punched Su Yu's back, and Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief. "You finally let go, kid. If you had kept tightening your grip like that, I really wouldn't have been able to come back."

Little girl, your voice has changed, haven't you noticed?

Su Yu knew that Wang Dong hadn't yet noticed the change in his voice, so he didn't point it out. Instead, he reached out and wiped away Wang Dong's tears, saying, "Don't cry. You look like a little kitten. Look at you, you don't look like the class monitor of the championship-winning attacking department at all, hahaha..."
