Hua Miaomiao was a homosexual, whom people would normally call "gay". The man he liked happened to be involved with Chu Qing.
Chu Qing knew about this and the two of them had often quarreled because of that man.
However, the quarrel would always end with Hua Miaomiao getting defeated, and because of that, Hua Miaomiao would always crib to Gu Youli.
But it was just a complaint. After that, Hua Miaomiao would always say that he did not lose. The problem was that the man didn't like men.
Luckily, the woman that man liked was Chu Qing, that tomboy, so it wasn't someone else who had gotten lucky.
Childhood friends are like that.

All the freshmen would be in camo uniform, waking up at 6 am every day to train in the school field.
