In Wei Wujiang's room.

Mei Shengke sat in a chair, eating the grapes that Wei Wujiang had brought for Deng Yin.

Wei Wujiang snatched the grapes and put them back on the plate.

"What are you thinking? What if you join the army too?"

Mei Shengke picked up another bunch of grapes and took a bite.

"Just do what needs to be done. There's no war going on right now, so it doesn't matter whether we're here or not. Before I came here, I handed over all the military affairs to Shen Yuan. She's been handling everything while you were away, and she's been doing a great job."

Wei Wujiang gritted her teeth and said, "Shouldn't you be handling military affairs while I'm away, Vice General!"

"It doesn't matter who does it. Professional matters should be left to professionals. Even if the two of us combine our efforts, we still can't match how well they handle things."

"How can that be the same?!" Wei Wujiang slammed his fist on the table.

Mei Shengke threw the grapes into the plate and angrily said, "Who are you banging on the table with?"

Wei Wujiang's arrogance vanished instantly. "I... there were bugs on the table just now, I was swatting them."

Mei Shengke rolled her eyes, picked up the bunch of grapes again, and said while eating, "Shen Yuan is someone my father has supported all the way up; he's a trustworthy person. Besides, didn't you hear Deng Yin say just now? I have to stay here for you to stay."

Wei Wujiang didn't dare to speak too loudly because Mei Shengke had just been angry. "If you ask me, why not just tie him up? I've seen it written like that in storybooks, it's forced love."

Just then, Mei Shengke ate a grape that had seeds in it, and like a pea shooter, she sprayed them all over Wei Wujiang.

"Have you ever had your brain slammed in a door? If you keep reading those storybooks, I'll tear them all up. People read storybooks for fun, but you really want to act out the stories?"

Wei Wujiang muttered, "I was just joking, I didn't mean to actually do it."

Mei Shengke got even angrier, picked up a grape and was about to throw it at him, but then pulled it back.

There aren't many grapes; it would be a waste to throw them away.

Feeling angry, Mei Shengke grabbed a handful of melon seeds and threw them at Wei Wujiang.

Wei Wujiang knew that Mei Shengke was angry. If he didn't catch this handful of melon seeds, he didn't know what she would throw next.

“You can’t even joke about it. Is this something you can joke about? If Deng Yin hears about it, he’ll pack us up and throw us out right there tonight.”

Outside the door, Deng Yin held a bunch of grapes in his hand, eating them while listening to the conversation inside.

Houses without soundproofing are great; you can hear everything clearly from far away.

Mei Shengke was indeed just as she remembered him—a very nice person.

As for Wei Wujiang, we need to find an opportunity to kill him...

The person the male lead likes isn't necessarily the female lead; she could also be the female supporting character who is his "white moonlight."

The fate of this kind of beloved female supporting character is as tragic as it gets; she's practically the epitome of misfortune.

She either becomes a villainous second female lead, fueling the romance between the male and female leads, or she leaves a mark on the male lead's heart by dying, so that the plot can be achieved where she tries to escape, he chases, and neither of them can escape.

Now that this dog of a male protagonist actually wants to force love, then she might as well teach him what force really is!

There are only four rooms in total. Gao Ruizhe and Feifei share one room, Deng Yin shares one room, Qiu Qingyu shares one room, and the last room is reserved for Mei Shengke.

Wei Wujiang paused for a few seconds, then asked, "What about me?"

"Oh right, and you too." Deng Yin seemed to have just remembered him. "Then you can stay in Gao Ruizhe's room."

"no!"

"no!"

Gao Ruizhe and Wei Wujiang's voices rang out simultaneously.

Gao Ruizhe glared at Wei Wujiang; he knew that meeting this person was bound to end badly.

“Our room is small and can only fit two people. How about Qiu Qingyu and Mei Shengke stay together, and Wei Wujiang stays in the other room?”

Wei Wujiang nodded quickly. "I think so too."

Qiu Qingyu glared at Gao Ruizhe, "Why? Don't you understand the principle of first come, first served? Wei Wujiang was only able to stay because of Mei Shengke, so she should be placed after her. If you ask me, she should stay according to her sister's arrangement."

Qiu Qingyu walked up to Gao Ruizhe and their eyes met. "If there's no room in the bed, there's still the floor, right? Give the bed to Feifei and Wei Wujiang, and you can stay on the floor. Then you'll have enough room."

Gao Ruizhe was so angry he exploded, "Why? You two each have a room, but we have to share one room with three people. That doesn't make sense."

"Reason?" Qiu Qingyu scoffed. "Reason is determined by the strong. How about we have a fight, and whoever wins gets to decide?"

Gao Ruizhe stammered in fright. "No...no, it's a four-person matter, why should only the two of us fight? Wei Wujiang and Mei Shengke have to fight too."

Wei Wujiang is a general. When the time comes, let him fight two against one, and I will stay behind him and cheer him on.

Qiu Qingyu knew Gao Ruizhe too well; she could tell what he meant the moment he opened his mouth.

"Don't think I don't know you're just trying to hide behind Wei Wujiang and reap the benefits. Don't forget that Mei Shengke was brought by Wei Wujiang, so she must know kung fu too. We'll beat you out first, then deal with Wei Wujiang together. Who knows who will win or lose?"

Apart from Wei Wujiang saying "I agree," the entire debate was between Gao Ruizhe and Qiu Qingyu.

Deng Yin had listened for a while, and since it was time to make dinner, he interrupted the debate.

"Alright, alright, what you both said makes sense. In that case, Wei Wujiang, you can sleep on the floor in Gao Ruizhe's room for now. I'll find someone to build another house, and you can move in once the new house is finished."

Gao Ruizhe and Wei Wujiang were not satisfied with the result, but since Deng Yin had already spoken, they had no choice but to agree.

Qiu Qingyu curled the corners of her lips and gave Gao Ruizhe a provocative look.

She didn't care that Mei Shengke was sharing a room with her; her insistence on this was purely because Gao Ruizhe didn't want to live with Wei Wujiang.

Qiu Qingyu was willing to do anything that would make Gao Ruizhe unhappy.
