Mo Lianqing is a poor kid who came from the mountains to attend college in the city, but all three of his roommates are top-tier trust fund kids. He despises these silver-spoon brats from the bottom of his heart for living off their ancestors' wealth without lifting a finger, yet envies them for basking in all that glory.
With a twisted heart, he wants to drag them down into the gutter. After all, they never stop flaunting their wealth in front of him.
Knowing their weaknesses, Mo Lianqing devises a meticulous plan.
Trust Fund Kid No. 1: an aloof, antisocial academic ace.
Mo Lianqing uses his village grandma's ID to register a fake account, dresses as a girl, and pretends to be a tea seller while dating him online. He plans to distract the guy from his studies, then dump him out of the blue the night before finals, ruining his GPA and costing him his scholarship and recommendation for graduate school.
Trust Fund Kid No. 2: a dumb jock with a sex addiction.
Mo Lianqing pretends to help him when his addiction flares up, all in the name of brotherhood. In reality, he secretly slips medication that affects sexual function into the guy's water and studies PUA courses online, planning to gradually destroy his self-esteem and break his personality.
Trust Fund Kid No. 3: a handsome upperclassman who has already taken over the family business and become more valuable thanks to his upcoming marriage to a wealthy heiress.
Mo Lianqing gets close to him as a friend to gather information, while spreading online rumors that he's keeping a mistress and got her pregnant, then refused to take responsibility. He plans to ruin the engagement and send the company's stock price plummeting.
Everything goes wonderfully. Academic Ace No. 1 is so distracted by him that he can't eat or sleep and even misses a final. Jock No. 2 can now only manage his condition with Mo Lianqing's help, and without him, he can't perform. Handsome Upperclassman No. 3 is caught up in a scandal, and not only is his engagement called off, but his stock market chart is bleeding red.
This is so satisfying!

With a scholarship for the highest GPA and a huge pile of cash from selling the luxury goods the academic ace gave him, Mo Lianqing happily packs his little bag, ready to find a resort island and enjoy a rich person's lavish lifestyle over winter break.
The day before his flight, the academic ace sends him two pictures. One shows a field of giant white radishes back in his hometown. The other is a childhood photo of him in split-crotch pants.
[Baby, is this the tea your family grows?]
[Also, Baby, aren't you a girl? How come you have a little mushroom growing on you?]
At the same time, Handsome Upperclassman No. 3 calls him. The man's voice is low and amused. "The tech team cracked the IP address on the anonymous forum. The post spreading those rumors came from someone in our dorm. Lianqing, who do you think it was?"
Mo Lianqing fumbles through an excuse and hangs up, so scared he can't even wait for his flight. He plans to flee that very night, only to find the tall, broad-shouldered jock blocking the doorway.
The man's expression is dark. "My blood test found traces of a drug that can cause sexual dysfunction. As my good buddy, do you have any idea what might be going on?"
Mo Lianqing: [Danger!]
#Do you guys think I can make it out of the dorm alive?#
[An introverted little mushroom who's poisonous at first, then gets cooked and loses its toxicity]
[Cold-faced academic ace, a sinister male ghost]
[Black-skinned, handsome, rough-edged jock, a big dog]
[Gentlemanly on the surface, scheming and black-hearted underneath]
Reader's guide:
1. The male leads are pure in body and mind. The third male lead's engagement is a rumor.
2. The receiver cross-dresses.
3. The receiver is frail and skinny due to childhood malnutrition. There are differences in body type and skin tone, and some mild coercion later on.
4. At first, the receiver is a dark little mushroom and can be a bit bad (though I think poisonous mushrooms taste better when cooked, slurp~). Later, the male leads raise him into a sunny mushroom.
