Morning: The Classroom Game
The lecture hall was filled with students, some engaged in discussions, others half-asleep. Wang Yang leaned back in his chair, lazily tapping his pen on the desk while Li Ming scrolled through his phone under the table.
"Gentlemen, care to pay attention?" The professor raised an eyebrow at them.
Li Ming smirked, slipping his phone into his pocket. "Of course, Professor. I was just looking up inspiration for the photography contest."
A few girls giggled. They all knew Li Ming wasn't looking up photography references—unless they counted certain "artistic" pictures as inspiration.
A whisper from the side caught their attention.
"Wang Yang, are you participating in the sports event?" A girl named Yanyan leaned in, her voice sweet as honey. She was a cheerleader, tall and graceful.
Wang Yang smirked, tilting his head. "Depends. Will you be there cheering for me?"
Yanyan giggled, brushing her hair back. "I might. But only if you promise to take me out after."
Li Ming chuckled, nudging Wang Yang. "Looks like you've got a date."
Wang Yang turned back to Yanyan, his smirk widening. "Then I better win, huh?"
Afternoon: The Photography Competition
The event courtyard was packed with students setting up cameras and models. The theme: "Beauty in Chaos."
Li Ming adjusted the settings on his camera while a group of girls gathered around, eager to be his subject.
"Li Ming, do you think I'd look better with the sunset in the background?" A girl named Meiyu pouted, adjusting her dress.
Li Ming gave her a slow once-over before flashing his signature smirk. "You'd look beautiful anywhere."
She blushed. "Then take a picture of me?"
"Only if you promise to be my model for a private session later," Li Ming teased.
Meiyu gasped playfully. "Flirt."
Nearby, Wang Yang was leaning against a table, watching a group of girls argue over who would pose for his shot. One particularly bold girl, Xiaoxue, approached him with a smirk.
"Why don't you just pick me?" she suggested, twirling a strand of hair around her finger. "I promise I won't disappoint."
Wang Yang chuckled, lifting his camera. "Then impress me."
The girls around them fumed as Xiaoxue posed confidently. Wang Yang snapped a few shots, nodding in approval. "Not bad. But let's see if you can handle the real challenge."
He leaned in slightly, his voice dropping to a whisper. "A night shoot. Just you and me."
Xiaoxue's breath hitched, but she quickly recovered with a sly smile. "I never back down from a challenge."
Evening: The Basketball Match
The sports complex was packed as students gathered to watch the inter-department basketball match. Wang Yang and Li Ming, naturally, were part of the team.
The game was intense, sweat dripping from their brows as they dominated the court. Every time Wang Yang scored, the girls in the audience screamed his name. Every time Li Ming made a steal, a new wave of cheers erupted.
During halftime, a few cheerleaders approached them with towels and water bottles.
Yanyan handed Wang Yang a towel, winking. "Still think you can win?"
Wang Yang took it, smirking. "Want to make another bet?"
Meanwhile, Li Ming leaned against the bench, catching his breath. A girl from the literature department, Rui, knelt beside him, offering a water bottle.
"You're amazing out there," she said softly.
Li Ming accepted the bottle, flashing her a grin. "You should see me off the court."
Rui turned pink, but before she could respond, the whistle blew. Second half.
As they ran back onto the court, Wang Yang glanced at Li Ming. "Whoever scores the final point gets to choose the other's date for tomorrow."
Li Ming smirked. "You're on."
The match ended in a blur of sweat, cheers, and tension. The final point? Wang Yang.
Li Ming groaned as Wang Yang slung an arm around his shoulder. "Guess I get to pick your date."
Li Ming rolled his eyes. "Just don't make it someone boring."
Wang Yang's grin was devilish. "Oh, don't worry. You're going to love this one."
As the crowd dispersed, the night had only just begun for Huaxi University's playboys.
