Douluo: AFK to Become a God

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: The Past That Xiao Wu Would Rather Not Remember



At this moment, Xiao Wu, who didn't even have a single copper coin in her pocket, was in deep inner turmoil.

Having grown used to being called "Sister Xiao Wu," she wanted to make Chu Chengzhou call her that, but her stomach was also demanding attention, making her wish for him to treat her to a meal.

Xiao Wu: This is such a dilemma for Sister Xiao Wu!

After some hesitation, Xiao Wu made up her mind and said, "One meal isn't enough!"

Alright, Sister Xiao Wu has become the "Extra Meal Practitioner"!

"How about dinner as well? I'll treat you tonight!" Chu Chengzhou said with a face full of bravado.

"Deal!" Xiao Wu immediately agreed without hesitation.

The vast world, but the stomach is the most important. In the end, Xiao Wu succumbed to her own hunger!

When she was still a rabbit, her food consisted of the abundant Blue Silver Grass in the forest, and occasionally some carrots to improve her diet.

But now that she had become a "human cub," her taste buds had changed, and the Blue Silver Grass found everywhere in the forest was no longer edible.

Although she would have to pay for two meals, Chu Chengzhou didn't mind at all. Compared to calling Xiao Wu "Sister Xiao Wu," even if it were the entire semester's worth of meals, it wouldn't matter.

Besides, today was the first day of school, and with a bit of pocket money, Chu Chengzhou had already planned to treat everyone to a meal.

After settling Xiao Wu, Chu Chengzhou continued laying out his bedding.

"Hey, where did you guys get your bedding from?" Suddenly, Xiao Wu asked a rather "silly" question.

"Where else would bedding come from? You bring it from home!" The other students couldn't help but laugh.

But judging by Xiao Wu's expression, it seemed like she hadn't brought any bedding from home. Was she really that careless?

Seeing the surprised expressions of the other students, Xiao Wu quickly realized she had made a mistake and blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.

However, true to her nature, Xiao Wu quickly shrugged it off, acting as though nothing had happened, and started eyeing the bedding of the other students.

If she didn't have any, it was fine. Her little brothers had some! And what was theirs was hers. As for hers? That was still hers.

Looking around, Xiao Wu noticed that most of the bedding in the dorm was worn and torn, likely due to the students' poor families. The only exception was Chu Chengzhou's bedding.

With no money to buy new bedding, Xiao Wu began plotting how to "borrow" Chu Chengzhou's bedding.

Seeing this, the other students, who had originally thought about offering their bedding to the new dorm leader, quickly changed their minds.

After all, Xiao Wu was not only beautiful but also talented, and their shabby bedding didn't seem worthy of her.

They realized that if anyone was going to offer bedding, it would have to be Chu Chengzhou!

After a while, when Chu Chengzhou had finished laying out his bedding, he noticed Xiao Wu staring at him from behind.

"...What do you want?" Chu Chengzhou felt a little uneasy under her gaze.

"Little Chu~," Xiao Wu said, tapping him on the shoulder in a grand manner, "I didn't bring any bedding. Do you think we could..."

"You're not sleeping with me!" Chu Chengzhou immediately refused with a serious face.

"I'm not 'Little Chu,' and I won't call you 'Sister Xiao Wu.'"

He would never do something inappropriate like that! Not in this world, and certainly not in any world.

"Pfft~! What are you thinking, you little rascal!" Xiao Wu huffed, her face turning red. "I meant, can I borrow your bedding for a few days? I'll return it as soon as I have money to buy my own."

Seeing the misunderstanding, Xiao Wu quickly added, feeling a little awkward.

Chu Chengzhou, however, quickly changed the subject to avoid further awkwardness: "If I lend you my bedding, where will I sleep tonight?"

"Don't they have bedding?" Xiao Wu pointed to Wang Sheng and the others. "You can sleep with them!"

Chu Chengzhou: ...

Why didn't she say "sleep with me"?

Of course, he didn't say that out loud, as he didn't want to be labeled as a pervert.

"Alright, you can borrow my bedding for a few days, but..."

"But what?" Xiao Wu quickly asked.

"If I need you to be my sparring partner in the future, you can't refuse."

Experience in battle was crucial.

Chu Chengzhou didn't want to end up like the character Qian Renxue from the original story, who had incredible strength but lacked practical combat experience, leading to her defeat by Tang San, who was at a lower level.

Given Xiao Wu's strength and talent, she would be a perfect sparring partner.

Of course, he didn't plan on asking her to spar right now, or even in the near future. He intended to continue training his physical abilities first, at least until his body was on par with hers.

As for the bedding? He could either go home to get another one or buy one on the street.

"No problem, this is a done deal!" Xiao Wu said excitedly, slapping her chest.

Sparring was just fighting, and Xiao Wu loved fighting! No, she was great at it!

Plus, she could beat up Chu Chengzhou for free—what a rare opportunity!

"Just hope you won't end up crying when Xiao Wu Sister beats you up!" Xiao Wu gave him a meaningful look.

Afterward, seeing that it was getting late, Chu Chengzhou waved to the others: "It's time for dinner. Let's go to the second floor of the cafeteria, I'm treating!"

Immediately, all the work-study students were beaming with joy.

Coming from poor families, their meals at the academy were very modest, and they rarely got to enjoy anything delicious. As for the "good stuff," that was out of the question. As long as they could fill their stomachs, that was already a luxury.

Every time Chu Chengzhou treated them to a meal, it was at the second floor of the cafeteria, where the "special meals" were considered a rare feast, and they always ended up eating more than usual.

For Xiao Wu, who had no money at all, it was even more of a treat.

Since coming to the human world, you can't imagine how Xiao Wu Sister, with no relatives or friends, managed to survive.

Who among you has ever eaten Blue Silver Grass?

Well, Xiao Wu has! But that was in the past, and she'd rather not remember those days.

With that, the group of eleven, led by the generous Chu Chengzhou, rushed toward the cafeteria.
