The Daily Life of Being the Campus Idol's Fake BoyfriendCh22.1 - Internal Digestion (1)

After the weekend passed, the new semester was in full swing.

There were relatively few freshmen majors in the Department of Journalism. There are only three subjects in the Department of Journalism, which are Chinese journalism history, media accomplishment news, and news interviews. kh1Lou

But four years of college will not be easy since these students are attending a prestigious school and wished to accomplish great things in the future.

Not only did they need to learn how to become a journalism expert, but they also needed to learn how to speak with eloquence, connect emotionally with the readers, be organized, and have various knowledge on different topics. They needed to be an all-rounder.

Their new journey had begun the moment they entered the school gate.

On the first day of class, two similar classes consisting of over 400 students from all four grades gathered. cfDGb9

However, what was interesting was not the content of the class or the professor giving the lecture. What was interesting was the girls who lined up outside the classroom to give Qi Feng a love letter.

They did not wait in the lobby of the dormitory because there were hundreds of people living in a dormitory. They wouldn’t be able to spot Qi Feng when he goes to the lobby because there are just too many people. So instead of standing idly by, they thought it was best to be forward with their feelings.

Some people may ask, why weren’t there any people giving Ling Ke love letters?

The truth was that there are many girls giving Ling Ke love letters, but the amount he received was almost negligible compared to the number of love letters Qi Feng received.

This was because of the gap between the titles the two guys had. Qing Ke was the campus idol, so he had admirers from the entire school. On the other hand, Ling Ke was the idol of his department. So, many of his admirers came from the journalism department.

After the news spread around for a few days, some of the girls who were brainwashed by romance novels became restless. Gossips about Qi Feng emerged one after another in the school forums. There was even a forum that concluded that based on the way Qi Feng dressed, he was rich and handsome. This made the materialistic woman among the group of admirers even more impatient.

Some of his admirers firmly believed that “love needed to be actively sought after”, so they checked the schedule on the Department of Journalism’s website and waited for Qi Feng To appear. They wanted to have a “chance encounter” with Qi Feng once his class ended. lpmL9Y

However, they didn’t expect so many other people to have the same ideas, and soon this “chance encounter” became a group confession. As such, this was the scene outside the Journalism Department’s classroom on the first day.

Qi Feng returned to the dormitory with a pile of love letters.

Even if he was “experienced” he had never experienced such direct confessions from so many girls at once. He felt like he was surrounded by a swarm of bees…

As a result, he didn’t dare to sit in the front row in class anymore. He sat at the seat closest to the entrance to the classroom. Once the class ended, he quickly tidied his things up and escaped the mob. He was afraid that he would implicate Ling Ke, so he escaped alone. BaRhMt

However, even if Qi Feng didn’t run back to the dormitory by himself, Ling Ke would’ve kept some distance between him anyway.

After the two returned from watching the movie last weekend, they seemed to have a mutual understanding of the interaction they had in the movie theater bathroom.

This was especially true for Ling Ke. He felt like he was possessed by demons when he patted Qi Feng on the butt impulsively.

He felt very excited when he patted him, but after the initial burst of excitement was over, he felt more embarrassed and confused than Qi Feng. rXUkMt

Because he cared too much about his own feelings, Ling Ke overlooked Qi Feng’s reaction.

Although this was not as excessive compared to the time, he and Gao Junfei were slapping each other’s naked butt in the bathroom. After all, when he patted Qi Feng, they had both their clothes and pants on. But when he recalled the scene in the bathroom again, he realized that Qi Feng’s actions and expressions afterward seemed to be somewhat unnatural.

In order to ease the awkward moment, Ling Ke made the decision to temporarily avoid Qi Feng.

Of course, there was another impartial reason why the two went their separate ways after class——they joined different clubs. 2ey7uH

As Qi Qiurui predicted, various clubs and organizations flocked to Qi Feng and Ling Ke to recruit them at the end of September. The two hadn’t even had the chance to explore the clubs when the people in charge of these clubs contacted them through their personal connections.

In addition to the most common student union club and the youth league committee, there were also cosplay clubs, DV photography clubs, the basketball team, handsome guys association (don’t know what it was for), BL club…and most unexpectedly, there was a gay club!

Ling Ke and Qi Feng were both frightened when they received an invitation letter from the president of the gay club. They both thought that their sexuality had been exposed!

Later, they learned that this club sent out invitation letters to all the handsome guys in the school. The former campus idol had received the invitation four years in a row. The club had sent him an invitation even during his senior year at the college. 3Bexay

The club not only accept gay men, but they also accept straight men who are curious about the club. But this does not include fujoshi. The fujoshi can only join the BL club.

It didn’t matter that they accept both gay and straight men, because both Ling Ke and Qi Feng rejected the invitation.

In the end, Ling Ke joined the school’s editorial department, the badminton club, and the piano club.

Qi Feng joined the school’s network department, the basketball team…and the musical composition research society. X7tgyE

“…huh? You know how to compose songs?” Ling Ke looked surprised at the last invitation letter that Qi Feng selected.

“Not at all.” Qi Feng shook his head and smiled. “But when I used to play the piano, I liked to blindly play around with the notes. When I did that, it still sounded nice. It was a pity that I didn’t record it at the time. Now, I’m taking advantage of this opportunity to study it.”

“What’s the use of studying it?” Ling Ke was a realist who only did things he was good at or if it was useful to himself. For example, he joined the badminton and piano club because he was good at playing badminton and piano. He was also used to playing both. That was why he subconsciously asked Qi Feng what the purpose was for him to join the club.

Qi Feng unexpectedly said, “It seems quite interesting, so I’m going to learn.” MjWJXZ

Ling Ke, “…”

Xie Qibao appeared more miserable compared to Qi Feng and Ling Ke.

It was the club recruitment week. He took the initiative to explore the clubs around campus. However, every time he introduced himself as a student living in the dormitory number 412, people immediately lost all interest in him. Instead, they looked at him with excitement when they found out that he lived in the same building as the campus idol. They inquired about his habits and asked him to invite Qi Feng and Ling Ke to their clubs.

A handsome or beautiful face was considered to be a gift given by God. The more handsome/beautiful you are, the more invincible you are. ha2pGq

Xie Qibao was helpless. He knew there was nothing he could do because everyone liked handsome guys and beautiful women. Even he felt Ling Ke and Qi Feng were pleasing to the eyes and that he was blessed to be living in the same dormitory as them.

The two men weren’t just handsome. The former was the freshman representative and the latter had a wide range of knowledge. One time during a late-night talk, Qi Feng talked about some of the sports he learned and how he knew how to speak several languages. Xie Qibao was dumbfounded by how talented Qi Feng was.

  1. thanks for the update, im glad our internally-panicking Distinguished GayTM protagonist is going back to his usual tsundere ways. now his lifelong crush can step up his game and try to get him to interact with him again!

  2. » Qing Ke was the campus idol, so he had admirers from the entire school.« Should be Qi Feng I guess? :’D (Forgot the name of the former campus idol lol)

    Thx for the ch (≧▽≦)/

  3. Thank you for the chapter🥰🥰 and I can’t wait for the update

  4. A little sour that the gay club doesn’t accept females lol and how fujoshis are… there a lot of things wrong with that, which I’m just too tired to explain… o_o I’m not entirely sure how I feel about this segregation lol But I guess this is the current generalization, so can’t really complain

    • I’m pretty happy about that actually. Fushojis are a lot different than actual gay guys. And this club is obviously for guys so why would girls obsessed with gay guys be there? It’s weird af. (And just to mention I’m not a fushoji, I just read interesting stories and don’t care if they’re straight or gay or lesbian or whatever)

  5. i dont quite like how 70% of the content are just about how amazing and handsome they both are or Qi feng. it’s gives the feeling of i get it already!! it’s feels repetitive to read it again and again. if they focus more on the actual storyline than emphasising on their appearance, this story would have my whole heart. honestly no idea if this is the norms in china (i think it is?) fan girls and such but for me personally it feels a bit too unrealistic and shameless. also since im already commenting, is it weird that i feel like there are quite a few sexist and homophobic lines in here as well? i love the story but the author definitely have some prejudices
