Soon, the morning classes came to an end. Liu Guanfeng quickly packed up his books and brought Platinum Wen to the classroom door of Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao. In fact, the two classrooms were not far apart, as both Liu Guanfeng and Li Xiaohan were in the smallest division of Rainfront Academy, the Special Academy.
Standing at the door, Liu Guanfeng saw that only Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao were in the classroom. Since Liu Guanfeng wanted to treat Li Xiaohan to a meal, Wang Jiao would definitely tag along for free food, especially since Bao Rui was Liu Guanfeng's attendant. The four of them quickly made their way to the school's Cafeteria, where three welcoming attendants were waiting at the entrance: Bao Rui, Copper Bull, and Iron Bull.
Upon seeing Bao Rui, Wang Jiao immediately rushed over like a little bird. Due to the crowd at the restaurant entrance, she didn't give Bao Rui a hug; if it had just been the two of them, who knows what inappropriate things might have happened.
Before long, Liu Guanfeng and the other Six People went straight to the second floor of the restaurant. As for ordering food, that task was left to Bao Rui, who was happy to help alongside Wang Jiao. So Bao Rui took Wang Jiao's hand and went to place their order. Seeing Bao Rui leave, Platinum Wen immediately stood up and said to Liu Guanfeng, "I'll go help them get the food; you all can sit here." After saying that, Platinum Wen followed them.
Copper Bull glanced back at Liu Guanfeng and Li Xiaohan, who was sitting across from him with her head down. He nudged Iron Bull with his elbow and said, "Little brother, I doubt they can carry that much food by themselves. Let's go help them."
Iron Bull didn't quite understand what was going on. "Big brother, they can't possibly need help with just that little bit of food. I'm already tired and want to rest a bit longer. Besides, I'm so hungry I can hardly move."
Hearing Iron Bull's response, Copper Bull immediately took on a big brother's tone: "Kid, are you saying your brother can't handle it?" After saying that, he pulled Iron Bull along with him. "Hurry up and come with me."
With that, he dragged Iron Bull along despite his reluctance and mumbling.
Now only Liu Guanfeng and Li Xiaohan remained at the table; Li Xiaohan still had her head down. Liu Guanfeng couldn't find any topic to discuss either. They sat there silently looking at each other.
The group in the distance initially intended to create an opportunity for the two to be alone together but seeing them just staring at each other without speaking made them return with their food.
When they returned and placed the food on the table, everyone began eating in silence. Surprisingly, no one spoke during the meal. Wang Jiao wanted to ease the atmosphere but was pulled back by Bao Rui sitting next to her; realizing this little schemer was watching her closely made her abandon her original idea.
Thus, a hearty lunch was consumed in silence. After finishing their meal, everyone prepared to return to their dorms for a nap. Since Liu Guanfeng, Platinum Wen, Li Xiaohan, and Wang Jiao were all in Special Class, they headed back together.
Just as they were about to part ways, Bao Rui pulled Wang Jiao aside and said, "Wang Jiao, let's go for a walk."
Wang Jiao immediately jumped next to Bao Rui and said to Li Xiaohan, "Xiaohan, Bao Rui and I are going out for a walk. You can head back first." After saying that, she grabbed Bao Rui and ran off like the wind.
At this moment, Platinum Wen also approached Liu Guanfeng and said, "Liu Guanfeng, you should head back first. I want to see if there are any supplies we need outside." Without waiting for Liu Guanfeng's response, she turned and left.
Liu Guanfeng looked up at the Copper Bull brothers in front of him. At this time, Copper Bull seemed not to notice Liu Guanfeng and patted Iron Bull on the head, saying, "Second Brother, since you're full, you should go back and sleep. Isn't that your favorite thing to do?"
Iron Bull touched his head with a wronged expression and replied, "You're one to talk; don't you have the same hobby?" He then glanced back at Liu Guanfeng and said, "Third Brother, I'm heading back to sleep now. I'm exhausted." With that, Iron Bull and Copper Bull left. Now only Liu Guanfeng and Li Xiaohan remained.
Liu Guanfeng looked at Li Xiaohan, who had her head down, and said, "Then let me walk you back to your dorm."
Li Xiaohan did not respond and slowly turned to walk toward the dormitory. Although Liu Guanfeng had not had a successful relationship in his previous life, he had dated a few girls. Seeing Li Xiaohan's expression indicated that she had tacitly agreed. So Liu Guanfeng quickened his pace to catch up with Li Xiaohan, and the two walked side by side toward the dormitory.
On the way back to the dormitory, they still did not say a word. However, their walking speed was quite impressive; if they used a speed booster, they could probably compete with Turtle. Nevertheless, they had to finish their journey, and soon they arrived at the base of Li Xiaohan's Dormitory Building.
At this point, Li Xiaohan finally spoke: "Thank you for walking me back. I'll head in now." Without waiting for Liu Guanfeng's reaction, she turned and walked away.
By the time Liu Guanfeng realized what was happening, Li Xiaohan had already reached the entrance of the building. He took a couple of steps forward and called out, "Li Xiaohan."
Li Xiaohan turned around to look at Liu Guanfeng and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Liu Guanfeng scratched his head, his face turning red as he finally managed to say, "Next time I'll treat you to dinner."
Li Xiaohan smiled lightly and nodded before entering the Dormitory Building.
Liu Guanfeng returned to his dorm alone and rested until it was almost time for class. He then got up and headed to the classroom. As he entered the classroom, the instructor also came in: "Classmates, we have received notice that there will be a Celebration Party this Saturday at 1 PM in our school's main playground. Make sure not to be late."
A student stood up and asked, "Teacher, what is this Celebration Party about? Why is it so grand?"
Instructor Chang smiled and looked at Liu Guanfeng, "What else could this Celebration Party be for? It's of course to celebrate our success in the Academy Competition. The reason we are starting now is to wait for Liu Guanfeng, who is the star of today's Celebration Party. Shouldn't everyone give him a round of applause?" After saying this, Chang Hong, the Instructor, led the applause for Liu Guanfeng.
Days passed quickly, and soon it was Saturday. After lunch, everyone consciously gathered on the playground. Normally, Liu Guanfeng would take a break before arriving, but today was different; he couldn't be late since he was the main character of the Celebration Party.
When Liu Guanfeng arrived at the playground with Bao Rui and a few others, some students were already waiting there, and the stage had been set up. At that moment, Director Jin was standing on stage, surveying the decorations around him. Upon seeing Liu Guanfeng and his group arrive, he waved them over.
Liu Guanfeng and his companions bowed slightly in front of Director Jin and said, "Hello, Director."
"You all made it. Please wait down here for a moment; I'll call you up when it's your turn."
"Understood, Director."
Soon, all the teachers and students from Rainfront Academy had arrived at the playground and lined up. At this time, all the participating colleges in the Campus Competition were already standing below the stage. When the time came, Director Jin walked to the front of the stage:
"I believe everyone already knows that our Rainfront Academy has won first place in this Academy Competition. This is also the first time our academy has achieved such a feat since its establishment. We are holding this Celebration Party today to honor those students who performed exceptionally well in the Campus Competition. Please give a round of applause for these outstanding students." A wave of applause erupted from below the stage.
Director Jin cleared his throat again: "Next, we invite our participating colleges to come on stage."
After Director Jin finished speaking, everyone took turns coming on stage to stand before their respective college leaders.
"Next, our college deans will personally present awards to all participating students."
Soon, both deans approached the participating team members and handed out red envelopes to each one. The weight of each envelope varied, with Liu Guanfeng's being the heaviest.
After everyone received their rewards, the Dean came to the front of the Arena to give a motivational speech to the students below. All the participating team members returned to their seats, and as they were leaving the stage, Director Jin approached Liu Guanfeng and said, "After you get off stage, please wait for a moment with Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao."
Liu Guanfeng glanced back at Director Jin, nodded, and then walked down from the Arena. He stood with Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao beside him. Wang Jiao kept asking Liu Guanfeng why they had to stay behind. Liu Guanfeng looked at Wang Jiao and replied, "I don't know; it's just that Director Jin asked the three of us to stay."
After a while, the Dean's motivational speech concluded, and Director Jin stood up again. "I have another good piece of news to share. Our students Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao have had their works selected by Your Majesty as part of the cultural education content for various colleges in the calligraphy competition. Now, I invite Li Xiaohan and Wang Jiao to come up on stage."
The two girls shyly made their way to the podium, where the Dean and Vice Dean presented them with red envelopes. Liu Guanfeng watched as the two girls happily left the Arena.
At this moment, Director Jin came to the front again. "Next, we will present an award to one more student from our college. The reason our college won the championship in this Campus Competition is because of this student, who achieved four individual championships and two collective championships during the competition. This student is Liu Guanfeng from our second-year Special Class. Please give a warm round of applause for Liu Guanfeng as he comes up on stage."
Amidst the applause, Liu Guanfeng confidently walked up to the podium. Having been an athlete before, he was accustomed to such award ceremonies. Upon reaching the podium, both Deans handed him a large red envelope, which nearly slipped from his grasp.
Director Jin's voice rang out again: "In recognition of Liu Guanfeng's outstanding performance in the Campus Competition, our college has decided to reward him with five hundred gold coins."
Upon hearing the amount of the reward, a collective "wow" erupted from the audience. Even Liu Guanfeng was taken aback: five hundred gold coins was indeed a significant sum; he hadn't expected such generosity from the college.
"Now let's invite Liu Guanfeng to say a few words." With that, Director Jin stepped aside to give Liu Guanfeng space.
Liu Guanfeng thought to himself: No one had informed me that I would need to prepare a speech. However, as an experienced athlete and teacher over these past few years, he managed to say a few words on stage:
"First of all, I want to thank the college leadership for their support, my teachers for their guidance, my classmates for their concern, and my parents for their love..." As he spoke on stage, Liu Guanfeng felt goosebumps rising on his skin. Soon enough, he finished his speech and returned to his class.
"Now we will proceed with the final item. To celebrate everyone's achievements, our college has decided that tonight's dinner will be completely free. You can dine at your respective cafeterias or on the first floor of the Cafeteria." Upon hearing this good news, sustained applause erupted from below the podium.
