Reborn in 2015, I became a male god starting in high school.

Chapter 58 Arrived at the Dormitory
Zhou Ziyang stayed at the hotel with his father for one night.

That evening, Zhou Guowei also had a rare opportunity to talk with his son.

Logically speaking, Zhou Guowei is a veteran bureaucrat, so he shouldn't be so impatient.

However, Zhou Guowei ultimately couldn't hold back in front of his son.

He asked Zhou Ziyang, "Do you still harbor resentment towards me?"

"No," Zhou Ziyang denied.

Zhou Guowei stared at Zhou Ziyang for a long time before finally saying, "I know you're blaming me."

"It's my fault for not caring about you all these years."

"But all I want to say is that this isn't just my fault."

“Your mother is just too stubborn. No matter what, you are still my son. How could I possibly ignore you?”

This sentence sounds familiar, but it was said in two different contexts.

In his past life, Zhou Guowei looked down from a high position, seemingly sighing, but actually feeling triumphant.

In this life, Zhou Guowei's eyes held a hint of regret.

Zhou Ziyang said, "It's getting late, Dad. We have to report for duty tomorrow."

After saying that, Zhou Ziyang turned his head and went to sleep.

Zhou Guowei was left with a sigh.

They didn't get up until 2 p.m. the next day to go to school.

Zhou Ziyang told his father that he had already reported for duty yesterday, so he could go directly to the dormitory today and wouldn't follow them.

Zhou Guowei originally wanted to take his son to the counselor to ask for more care for his son, but it was obvious that Zhou Ziyang refused. Before Zhou Guowei could speak, Zhou Ziyang waved his hand and left them first.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed in front of Xu Qing and Xia Wei, Zhou Guowei couldn't help but say, "This child is getting more and more disobedient."

Xu Qing quite liked their way of getting along, and said with a smile, "The child is all grown up now. You've never taken care of him since he was little, so if you have to take care of him now, he'll definitely not be used to it."

Zhou Guowei also knew this was the reason.

Since Zhou Ziyang doesn't need to be picked up or dropped off, he can only take Xia Wei to report for duty.

Seeing how carefree Zhou Ziyang was, Xia Wei originally thought that she would just go and report herself.

However, Xu Qing rejected him as soon as he said it.

Xu Qing said, "Oh, your uncle and I finally made this trip, and you're just going to leave us hanging outside the gate like this? Is this how I raised you?"

Xia Wei had nothing to say.

But then she saw Xu Qing squinting at her.

Zhou Guowei sighed and said, "Let's go."

The plane trees on both sides of the main road of Jinling University still provide ample shade.

Today is the official start of the school year, and there are just as many students as yesterday.

The freshmen, a diverse group, were sometimes accompanied by their parents, dragging their suitcases and wandering around the school like headless flies, sometimes even having to ask volunteers for directions to the specific registration area.

Some were dressed in a youthful and beautiful style. At eighteen years old, they had already learned to do makeup and had their hair meticulously styled. They dragged their suitcases and greeted the senior students who took the initiative to greet them and help them with their luggage. They also smiled and thanked the senior students.

The scenes before my eyes seemed strangely familiar.

Zhou Ziyang followed the path and quickly found dormitory A9, located in the southeast corner of the school.

The dormitory lobby was a mess, with a group of boys waiting there with their suitcases.

The dormitory staff, in conjunction with the school's property management office, set up a small table in the lobby and distributed keys according to each person's identity.

Zhou Ziyang also joined the queue for a while.

I readily paid 20 yuan and received my own key.

As I went upstairs, I heard the dormitory manager calling from behind.

Tell Zhou Ziyang to keep the deposit slip safe.

"You can get your deposit back after graduation by showing this receipt!"

This sentence sounds familiar.

It feels like I've heard it once before.

But it also feels like it happened more than once.
Dormitory A9 is an old dormitory area with no elevator; it's a five-story building.

The staircase leads to a place steeped in history.

Zhou Ziyang walked through the corridor.

Most of the freshmen were cleaning their rooms.

The dormitory door was open.

Laughter and cheerful chatter from the boys could be heard from inside.

It was their first time leaving their hometown, and they were speaking broken Mandarin.

They talk about everything—their hometowns, games, and current events.

The sun was just right at two o'clock in the afternoon.

The shrubs growing outside the window provided just enough shade for the second floor.

A lot happened in the summer of 2015.

That year, Ma Di didn't think "Nanshan Nan" was easy to write, and he was still feeling uneasy on the stage of The Voice of China.

A year ago.

Most people don't actually know the brand 'Uniqlo'.

However, after August of that year, everyone saw the video.

Zhou Ziyang walked through one open dormitory door after another.

Listening to them talk about one topic after another.

"I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

"Feng Timo is so cute!"

"That woman has high emotional intelligence." "The Uniqlo actress is just so-so."

"The most beautiful AV actress is Takizawa Laura, her legs are really long!"

"I'm evenly matched with Faker."

These idle words and whispers passed by Zhou Ziyang's ears.

In a daze, Zhou Ziyang suddenly realized.

It turns out that ten years have passed since then.

And without realizing it.

I've returned to this year again.

at last,

Zhou Ziyang arrived at the door of his dormitory.

A light gray dormitory door.

Zhou Ziyang opened the door.

Sunlight streamed in through the window.

The dormitory looked empty.

There were two people in the dormitory at that time.

A stylish-looking guy, tall and big, wearing a black vest, white shorts, and a pair of AJ sneakers.

The other one was also about 1.8 meters tall, looked strong and powerful, and was wearing dirty clothes.

The stylish-looking boy was playing on the computer, but when someone came in, he would turn around and look at Zhou Ziyang.

They looked each other up and down.

"Zhou Ziyang?" the stylish-looking boy asked uncertainly.

"Yes, you are Qi Tao?"

The boy stood up with a smile; he was a typical city boy.

"Damn, you're way more handsome than I thought!" Qi Tao couldn't help but punch Zhou Ziyang and said with a laugh.

Zhou Ziyang laughed and said, "You and I think exactly the same thing."

Compared to Zhang Dapeng's indifferent attitude while packing his things, Qi Tao was clearly more friendly towards Zhou Ziyang, and immediately put his arm around Zhou Ziyang's shoulder.

It wasn't that Qi Tao was judging people based on their appearance, but Zhou Ziyang just looked cleaner than Zhang Dapeng.

The three of them had been chatting online, so they didn't seem awkward with each other.

Qi Tao seemed more approachable, while Zhang Dapeng appeared rather unassuming, tidying up his things as Zhou Ziyang entered.

After his identity was confirmed, Zhang Dapeng came over and greeted him with a chuckle.

"These are some pickled vegetables I brought from home! Hehe!" Zhang Dapeng also prepared a gift for Zhou Ziyang.

Upon hearing this, Qi Tao's lips curled up slightly, as he wanted to see how Zhou Ziyang would react.

After all, he had just received a jar of pickled vegetables as well.

"Thank you," Zhou Ziyang said with a smile as he accepted the gift.

"You're too kind! We're brothers now, shouldn't we? The pickled vegetables are a bit spicy, so eat them slowly! When I was working at the factory, Xu Huai had some pancakes that were pretty good, especially when rolled with pickled vegetables!" Zhang Dapeng grinned and chatted with them.

Zhou Ziyang chuckled and nodded, then asked Qi Tao, "Isn't it four people to a dorm? Where's the other one?"

"That one hasn't arrived yet, and I don't know what it's like. I was thinking of pulling one over from the group chat, but they all already have dorms." Qi Tao said, taking out his blue cigarette case.

Zhang Dapeng's eyes lit up: "Wow, Xuanhemen! Qi Tao, you're rich!"

Qi Tao quickly and modestly said no, no.

"I just smoke them for fun."

He then offered a cigarette to Zhou Ziyang.

Zhou Ziyang politely declined, stating that he did not smoke.

Qi Tao then casually handed the cigarette to Zhang Dapeng.

Zhang Dapeng naturally accepted all offers.

Qi Tao and Zhang Dapeng have already chosen their beds.

There were two left, and Qi Tao urged Zhou Ziyang to choose one quickly.

"First come, first served."

Zhou Ziyang thought for a moment and chose a seat on the right.

Zhou Ziyang had just chosen his spot.

There was another sound coming from outside the door.

"Okay, I understand."

The door didn't open.

A boy wearing a black short-sleeved shirt and shorts walked in. His shirt had a logo of a soaring eagle on it, and his shorts were a matching London Boy style.

She was somewhat thin, but very delicate.

He was wearing a pair of Gucci canvas shoes.

He was holding the latest iPhone 6s.

Around her neck were Sennheiser's large, round wireless earbuds.

The suitcase in her hand is a Louis Vuitton.

He entered the dormitory as if no one else was there.

"This is my dad's arrangement, what can I do?"

"Don't worry, you're the only one in my heart."

"Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm at my dorm. I'll hang up now."
