Chapter 1: Are you sick?

  Tang turned his head back and saw a woman in a black professional suit walking quickly towards him.

  The woman's appearance is delicate and looks quite elegant. Her figure is tall and slender, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.

  But this woman made Tang Chong feel inexplicably tense.

  She had a large blue fruit in her left hand and a box of pastries in her right, yet she was able to walk with swift and steady steps, as if there were endless strength within her slender body.

  Tang Chong stared at her with a vigilant expression and said, "I don't know you."

  The woman smiled and said: "Mr. Tang, someone asked me to bring you a gift."

  "Who?" Tang Zhong asked.

  "Just a fruit basket and a box of mooncakes ----- " The woman handed over the gift in her hand, saying: "Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. A small gift, please accept it."

  "You haven't told me who sent the gift yet." Tang Zhong didn't take it. "If I'm not familiar with her, you'd better take this gift back."

  "Mr. Tang, please don't make things difficult for me, okay?" The woman pleaded. A beautiful woman speaking softly makes it hard for one to turn a deaf ear.

  Unfortunately, Tang Chong didn't give her any face at all.

  "It was you who made things difficult for me." Tang Chong said with a smile. "Send it back, I don't need it. The school will also give out mooncakes, the taste should be pretty good."

  The woman helplessly said: "My mission is that I must hand it over to you."

  She stepped forward, and Tang Chong retreated one step back.

  Then she put down the fruit basket and biscuit box on the ground and turned around to flee quickly.

  Watching the woman wearing high heels and still running so fast made Tang Chong quite headache.

  He walked back, bent down and picked up the fruit basket and cake box from the ground.

  A street sweeper pushing a trash cart walked by, picked up the fruit and pastry box and ran after him, stuffed them into the arms of the auntie pulling the cart, saying: "Auntie, take it. Happy holidays."

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked back.

  "Oh dear, young fellow... how can I possibly accept such a valuable gift?"

  "Hey young man, are you... aren't you our Qianqian's boyfriend Xiaogang? Now that you're here, come on in and take a seat!"

  Tang Chong did not respond to the aunt's call, nor did he accept her invitation to sit at home, but quickly walked into the campus.

  After Tang Chong walked far away, the delicate woman came back from the corner of the bend.

  She looked at the sanitation worker who was holding a fruit basket and a pastry box, laughing with her mouth wide open, with an odd expression.

  Walking to Xueyuan Road, which is just one street away from Heda Road, a black Audi was parked in front of a small shop.

  She opened the passenger door and got in, saying apologetically: "Sorry, I didn't complete the task."

  *sigh*

  A sigh that made one's bones tremble echoed from the back seat of the car.

  Tang Chong pushed open the bedroom door and saw that the room was in a mess, with Hua Ming, whose face was painted with black lines, running around everywhere. Liang Tao and Master Wang Aiguo were surrounding him from front and back. Li Yu sat on a chair shuffling cards, smiling as he watched the scene.

  Seeing Tang Chong coming back, Hua Ming hurried over and grabbed his arm, shouting: "Second brother, you must help me out. I clearly said no to blasting, but they insisted on taking down my double king - what kind of card game is this?"

  "Don't you have any shame? You shouted that you were going to explode, but when you saw Wang Aiguo had a bomb in his hand, you picked up your own two kings again. Isn't this called losing? Hurry up and stick out your face so we can draw two turtles on it. Otherwise, we're not done with you yet."

  "That's right. A real man admits defeat." Wang Aiguo chimed in, "What's the big deal? It's just two turtles. You've got such a big face, and you can't even handle two more..."

  "I didn't explode."

  "Your cards have all been played out, why haven't you exploded yet?"

  "That was an accident."

  "That's still being naughty." Liang Tao and Wang Aiguo supported him on either side, while Li Yu quickly came over with a paintbrush and painted two turtle eggs on Hua Ming's face, which was struggling desperately. Because he struggled too hard, she could only paint two circles.

  "How did you end up playing cards together?" Tang Chong looked at Wang Aiguo and asked. He didn't recall Wang Aiguo having a particularly good relationship with Hua Ming and Liang Tao.

  "I've come to talk to you about something." Wang Aiguo said with a smile, his face also had several small turtles. "You're not here. They said three people were playing cards and one was missing. So I joined them for a few rounds."

  "What's up?" Tang Chong asked.

  "Let's talk over here. It's a big deal for the department, can't let those guys hear it." Wang Aiguo walked to the balcony, Tang Chong followed him over.

  Master Wang Aiguo looked at Tang Chong with a serious face and praised: "Really didn't think of it. Really didn't think of it."

  "What didn't you think of?" Tang Zhong asked.

  "Do you still remember what I said when we first met?" Wang Aiguo asked.

  "I remember," said Tang Chong. 'I could tell at a glance that you're a loser', I reckon it will take several years or even decades for Tang Chong to forget, right?

  "Back then I said you were a dragon and phoenix among people, an extraordinary person-----"

  "You didn't say it that way, did you?" Tang Zhong corrected. He wondered if Wang Aiguo had given the same treatment to every new student who came to report, and now he had mistaken the object, these words were originally said to someone else. "You slapped your palm on the table at the time and said - I can tell at a glance that you are a loser."

  "Really?" Wang Aiguo's mouth opened in surprise. "Did I say that?"

  "Yes." Tang Zhong nodded affirmatively.

  Wang Aiguo's face turned red with embarrassment, and he said awkwardly: "What I mean is that you're not just an ordinary loser, but a super loser, a king of losers, a loser who can defy the heavens. You are the representative of millions and millions of losers... Think about it, as soon as you entered school, you were taken in as a disciple by our Dean Jiao. This honor alone is enough to make hundreds of people in our department jealous to the point of madness. And then there was that time when your class elected a class leader, I was also present at the scene. My god, I didn't expect your vote count to be so high. When I was standing on the stage writing down votes, every time they announced your name, I felt my body tremble... Usually, the class leader is someone who has been temporary class leader before, because he's familiar and has a foundation among the crowd, everyone wants to give him their vote. Who would have thought you'd be so powerful and directly crush him?"

  "You're coming to me now is admitting you were wrong in the first place?" Tang Zhong said with a smirk.

  "Hey, how could I have missed it?" Wang Aiguo's face turned red as he denied it. "Go ask around, there are so many new students this year, who else did I read their fortune for? It was because I saw at a glance that you're not an ordinary person, that's why I calculated your fortune... and it really came true."

  "Alright." Tang Zhong also stopped poking at the master's wound. Smiling, he said: "You said you wanted to discuss something with me?"

  "Yes." Wang Aiguo said. "I'll ask you one thing first. Are you willing to join the student union?"

  "Will you join the student union?" Tang Chong shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it."

  "How could you not have thought of it? Many students want to go in."

  "What's the benefit of going in?"

  "No."

  "Why go in?"

  "This... gives myself a chance to exercise." Wang Aiguo said with a lack of confidence.

  "Never mind, I won't join in," said Tang Chong. "I'll have a lot on my plate this year and won't have time to participate in any clubs."

  "But you can't not join, okay?" Wang Aiguo said. "Each class monitor must join the student union. Moreover, your positions won't be bad. Generally, they will arrange you in either the Life Department or the Discipline Inspection Department, which are two departments that stand out and are easier to achieve results."

  "Never mind." Tang Chong shook his head. "What I'm most afraid of right now is drawing attention to myself."

  "It is." Wang Aiguo chuckled. "You are now the most prominent among our department's freshmen, and also the most well-known among Nan Da's freshmen. I heard that people from other departments are not convinced and want to compete with you."

  Tang Chong couldn't help but think, is this considered being burdened by a false reputation?

  "I won't join the student union," said Tang Chong. "Tell me something else instead."

  "Welcome party." Wang Aiguo looked at Tang Chong with a look of surprise and said, "Haven't you heard about it?"

  "I've heard of it," Tang Chong said. "What does this have to do with me?"

  Wang Aiguo looked at Tang Chong with a speechless expression and said, "You're not just a freshman, are you? You're not only a freshman, but also the class leader of the freshmen. So, this matter has something to do with you. And it's got a lot to do with you."

  "You're not going to make me sing on stage, are you?" Tang Zhong said.

  "That's not necessary." Wang Aiguo waved his hand and said, "I can tell at a glance that you can't sing. The department has rules, each class must submit a program to the school - you are the class leader of Class 1, so it's up to you to take charge of the program for Class 1. Singing, dancing, cross-talk, or sketch - anything goes. Anyway, when we report to the school, another batch will be cut off."

  "I'll give it a try," said Tang Chong. Jiao Nanxin was the class's art committee member, so this matter should be left to her to handle.

  "Don't try," said Wang Aiguo. "After the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, be sure to report the list to me."

  "Alright." Tang Zhong could only agree.

  Wang Aiguo patted Tang Chong's shoulder and chuckled: "I'm rooting for you."

  Wang Aiguo had just left when Hua Ming sneaked over and whispered, "Second Brother, the department wants our class to perform a program for the freshmen's welcome party?"

  "Do you have a recommended candidate?"

  "Not bad." Hua Ming nodded with a sly expression. "When recommending someone from outside, one should avoid enemies; when recommending someone from within, one does not avoid relatives. I recommend myself."

  "What can you do?" Tang Zhong asked.

  Family reunion and moon appreciation have only two chapters updated so far. Tonight, everyone also puts love on their family members. Tomorrow, let's love Lao Liu again.
