"You, You are really..." Shu Xiaoman was stuck for words upon seeing the three boys hurriedly getting ready to set off again. She suddenly felt so sad that she gritted her teeth and stormed out of the room.
She happened to run into Zhang An'an at the door, and Zhang An'an touched her forehead and asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"An'an, Wenxi, Wenxi, he wants to join the compet.i.tion again!" Shu Xiaoman said while sobbing.
Zhang An'an immediately understood why Shu Xiaoman suddenly decided to give up the compet.i.tion and became so sad. She looked at w.a.n.g Xiang while thinking, "I should feel lucky since w.a.n.g Xiang is such an obedient guy." She sighed and said, "Don't worry. Better days are yet to come. Will you feel better by thinking that he joined the compet.i.tion because of Zhao Yuan?"
"I don't know. I just feel sad," Shu Xiaoman replied with a somber face. The two girls went out to talk privately, leaving w.a.n.g Xiang at the door. Upon seeing that, w.a.n.g Xiang shook his head and spread his hands in shrug. When he walked into the room, the other three boys were ready to get their supplies.
He patted Lin Wenxi's shoulder and said, "Hey, buddy, if you can't hold on, just give up. Your parents must be worried about your health." Lin Wenxi paused for a moment, but then continued to walk out without hesitation.
"Xiaoman, do you regret quitting the compet.i.tion so easily?" asked Zhang An'an.
"Yes. It turns out that I really have no idea what a kind of person he is," said Shu Xiaoman.
Zhang Anan couldn't help but sigh. "You always think that he's as weak as a piece of paper but never know that he's such a tough, gutsy guy."
When Lin Wenxi, Zhao Yuan, Chen Wanxin and Zheng Kai set off, they had a little trouble. Lin Wenxi asked Zhao Yuan to go first but Zhao Yuan refused and kept following him. Chen Wanxin wanted Zheng Kai to go first but Zheng Kai refused and followed her.
Upon seeing that, w.a.n.g Xiang sat cross-legged on a stool, and chanted sarcastically, "The pole is long, and the bench is wide. The bench wants the pole to be attached to itself, but the pole doesn't want to be attached to the bench..." To his surprised, the next moment, he saw that Zheng Kai was rus.h.i.+ng back while shaking his fists grumpily. "Oh, no!" w.a.n.g Xiang cried out and ran away. When he was about to run past Zhang An'an, Zhang An'an shot out her foot to trip him up. He fell to the ground face down and collapsed on the ground for a moment. After that, he went to Zhang An'an, asking for a hug.
Lin Wenxi chose Zhang Dong as his military instructor.
While being followed and watched by their military instructors, Zhao Yuan, Lin Wenxi, Zheng Kai and Chen Yuxin felt quite nervous. Zhao Yuan tried to hold Lin Wenxi to help him walk more easily but got rejected. He thought back to what w.a.n.g Xiang had just chanted and decided to just walk beside Lin Wenxi slowly.
Suddenly, Chen Wanxin stopped and pushed Zheng Kai forward while saying, "You go first, Zheng Kai."
"I can't. You know that I've just recovered from a severe illness," Zheng Kai scratched his head and replied smilingly.
"I warn you to hurry up and win the first prize, Zheng Kai! Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore!" Chen Wanxin shouted while pointing to the front.
Zheng Kai was confused and thought, "I remember that it was Chen Wanxin who took care of back in the clinic when I pa.s.sed out. She wiped my arms clean, tied a bandage around my foot and then tucked me in my bed. I was conscious back then, but I pretended to be unconscious to enjoy the moment until she was asked to leave and pack up her things. That is probably the happiest moment in my life so far. I'm willing to remain uncouscious for my whole life if she'll continue to take care of him. Well, that's not quite possible. But doesn't she begin to like me? If she really likes me, why does she want to send me away? Does she want me to prove that I'm well-matched to her by winning the first prize?"
Zheng Kai felt dejected and then felt excited. He wondered with s.h.i.+ny eyes, "Why do I suddenly become so emotional? This is incredible."
"What if I really win the first prize?" Zheng Kai asked cheerfully.
"I'll beroth w.a.n.g Xiang to you," Chen Wanxin turned her face to the side to avoid looking at him and said.
"I'll always remember your promise. If w.a.n.g Xiang refuses to marry me, you will be held accountable." With these words, Zheng Kai grinned to Lin Wenxi and Zhao Yuan and shouted, "I'll wait for you guys at the destination. Don't let me down!" He started running forward while carrying his backpack, and his military instructor chased after him while panting heavily. The military instructor complained, "F*ck, can you give me a break to catch my breath? How can you run so fast? I'll not be able to catch up with you brat, if I get a little bit older."
Chen Wanxin watched Zheng Kai running away and felt relaxed. She turned to look at Lin Wenxi and Zhao Yuan, who were still embroiled with each other. Lin Wenxi repeatedly persuaded Zhao Yuan to go first, but Zhao Yuan insisted on traveling together with him. Chen Wanxin thought that now they looked like two old friends who were declining each other's kind offers out of modesty. She smiled and caught up with them. The three of them began to travel together.
Soon enough, they arrived at a junction of three roads. According to the map, they should walk down the road in the middle. Nevertheless, Lin Wenxi chose the road on the left, and Chen Wanxin, the one on the right. Both of them tactfully pretended to have read the map wrong.
"Hey, you two, we should walk down the road in the middle," Zhao Yuan stopped, looked to the left for a moment, and then looked to the right. Suddenly, he shouted, "Lin Wenxi, Chen Wanxin, attention!"
Upon hearing the command, Lin Wenxi and Chen Wanxin habitually stopped and stood up straight.
Upon seeing that, Zhao Yuan smiled with satisfaction and continued, "Lin Wenxi, face right! Chen Wanxin, face left!"
The next moment, Zhao Yuan was rendered helpless. Chen Wanxin continued to strut forward on the right road. Lin Wenxi trotted briskly to the left and quickly disappeared. Zhang Dong chased after him. Lin Wenxi's movements seemed perfect, except for his somewhat feeble steps. He almost did not look like a patient.
Zhao Yuan touched his head confusedly as he thought, "Chen Wanxin and Lin Wenxi seldom talk to each other. Why did they simultaneously set on different paths? The acted as if they had made up this plan together a long time ago." Knowing that he could not travel together with them, Zhao Yuan decided to focus on the compet.i.tion. He was determined to be ranked among the top three, and this thought quickly occupied his mind. He started to run as fast as he could.
When he went far away, Lin Wenxi and Chen Wanxin walked back to the junction of the three roads.
"Pretty good, my little brother Wenxi. You really understood me well," Chen Wanxin said cordially and stretched out her hand to touch Lin Wenxi's head. Lin Wenxi, who was just several centimeters taller than Chen Wanxin, moved his head away to avoid her hand and asked, "Your little brother?" He remembered this slender hand very clearly."When I was on Zhao Yuan's back, she often put her hand under my nose to feel my breath or pinched me to check whether I was pretending to be sick and sleepy. I remained silent about that, but then she even slandered me in front of Zhang An'an and Shu Xiaoman. Well, it's not a big deal, but I still feel hurt," thought Lin Wenxi.
"As you're such an obedient and well-behaved little brother, I'll accompany you for a while," Chen Wanxin said and walked together with Lin Wenxi. She was pleased since her plan worked. She had whispered to Lin Wenxi to give him a hint that they could pretend to read the map wrong and set on different paths at the junction of the three roads ahead. She thought,"I was a little surprised and worried when Zhao Yuan shouted, 'Attention." Fortunately, Lin Wenxi cooperatated with me very well.
"And Zhao Yuan didn't choose to chase after Lin Wenxi." With this in mind, she smiled with satisfaction.
When they were walking together, Chen Yuxin asked Lin Wenxi about his family. Lin Wenxi told her that he was the only child of an ordinary family, his father was an ordinary government employee and his mother was a freelance writer. According to him, none of his relatives were wealthy or powerful. Throughout the conversation, Lin Wenxi refused to tell Chen Wanxin his father's name.
Upon hearing that, Chen Yuxin began to wonder.
"When I first came to this university and saw Lin Wenxi, he was dressed in ordinary clothes but looked outstanding. I somehow found him very special. I asked him to kiss me during the military training before. I just wanted to tease him and play a prank on him. To my surprise, he turned down my request. What he said today is his real background?
"That's impossible! Such an elegant and refined young man does not look like a child of an ordinary family at all. If he was really brought up in an ordinary family, he would never be able to get recruited by this university. w.a.n.g Xiang said that the reason Lin Wenxi looks so cold and detached is that he has seen through the vanity of life, but I don't think so. He just likes to observe what's going on around him before he decides what to do next.
"He's like a vigilant animal in a dark jungle, always calm and observant.
"Wait, do I just think too much? Do I overestimate him?"
