“Having a rival or two is perfectly normal, right? Worst case, just compete fairly!” He Ming spoke up.

Qii Shuhang’s expression darkened, “Let’s forget it…”

Upon hearing this, He Ming immediately became furious, his face full of frustration, “Damn! Forget what? You’re surrendering without even fighting! What kind of man are you!”

Qii Shuhang glanced at his indignant best friend and said listlessly, “I just love peace…”

He Ming, speechless, exclaimed, “Come on! You coward! Loving peace, what a ridiculous excuse! Don’t say you know me when you go out!

Not to criticize you, but what are you afraid of? With your height! Your looks! Your learning! Can your rival match up?

...

Right, isn’t Qi Yue interested in Quantum Mechanics? You’re the top student in our physics department, always the first in our age group, can your rival do that?

With your qualifications, there aren’t many in the whole of A University who can compete with you, right?”

Qii Shuhang felt as though each of He Ming’s words was a stab to his heart, making his face grow even darker, “Can you stop talking?”

He Ming lit a cigarette, unconvinced, “What’s up with me? Did I say something wrong?”

Qii Shuhang took a deep breath, “I’m sorry! He really can! Everything you mentioned… he’s better at all of it.”

He Ming was stunned upon hearing this, then disbelief covered his face, “How is that possible? Who the hell is this rival of yours? Is he from our school? Even just the last point can’t be true, who else can surpass you in Quantum Mechanics?”

Qii Shuhang looked at He Ming and emotionlessly said a name, “Gu Huai.”

He Ming, with a belly full of grievances yet to express, choked up and fell silent for a full three seconds before he dumbly asked, “What? Who did you just say?”

Qii Shuhang: “Hugh God, Gu Huai… Gu the boss…”

He Ming, recovering from a long stupor, burned his hand with cigarette ash and hissed before reacting, “Wait! Your rival is Gu Huai? Gu Huai likes Qi Yue? Are you kidding? Where did you hear these rumors?”

Qii Shuhang: “He said it himself.”

He Ming: “…”

Qii Shuhang continued, “I said I want to pursue Qi Yue, and he said he’d compete with me fairly.”

“No way, how can that be? Those two don’t seem like they’d have anything to do with each other!” He Ming could hardly believe that Qii Shuhang’s rival was this person; he was flabbergasted.

“You ask me, but who do I ask? I only know that they’ve apparently known each other for a long time; I didn’t dare to ask more…” Every time Qii Shuhang thought about how he had previously asked Gu Huai if Qi Yue liked anyone or what type of guys she preferred, he felt like dying.

It took He Ming a long time to regain his composure; he swallowed, the corner of his mouth twitching, “He said he wanted to tell you about competing fairly? Haha, fair… fair competition… damn fair competition…”

Qii Shuhang: “…”

It was quite fair; it’s just that he was getting KO’d in every aspect…

And so, the two sat in the dorm room, staring at each other, both falling into silence.

Who knows how long passed before He Ming lit another cigarette, took a deep, melancholic drag, and then patted Qii Shuhang on the shoulder, “Buddy, here’s the thing, I owe you an apology. I was wrong earlier, it was my narrow-mindedness. I think, loving peace is pretty good too…”

Qii Shuhang: “…”
