Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation-Chapter 325 - 254: The Picnic Ends, Classmates Gather_3

"Okay, you handle it," Ma Shicheng said while playing with his phone horizontally.

"Since you guys have decided to join in, Brother Nan and I definitely can’t be left behind, especially since it’s a four-person relay."

Dan Kaiquan slapped Guo Kunnan on the back, "Brother Nan, Brother Nan, stop fiddling with that broken phone. Are we doing the relay or not?"

Guo Kunnan put down his phone and, at the same time, he also let go of his online friend Ah Cha, as if he were letting go of the entire world.

"Let’s do it," Guo Kunnan said briefly.

After all, whenever Dan Kaiquan ran, he always dragged him along; participating wasn’t a problem.

Dan Kaiquan felt immensely relieved. He thought of Wang Longlong and Ma Shicheng’s "Dragon and Horse Duo," and instantly, a spark of inspiration hit him, and he came up with a name:

"Brother Nan, how about we call ourselves ’Nan Quan Group’ in the race?"

"It even includes both our names," Dan Kaiquan said excitedly; the combination sounded more and more appealing!

"Whatever, it all works."

Guo Kunnan was preoccupied with thinking about Ah Cha, who he really pitied. He wanted to buy some tea to support Ah Cha’s business.

He wanted to contribute his little bit to save Ah Cha.

At this moment, his inner resolve became even more impenetrable; he felt fulfilled.

Seeing that Brother Nan agreed, Dan Kaiquan slapped the table and shouted spiritedly:

"Let’s shine at the sports meet as ’Long Ma and Nan Quan’!"

The monthly test results were to be posted soon, and the sports meet was about to take place. The upcoming month would be Dan Kaiquan’s most glorious.

The moment the sports meet ended would be his moment to confess his feelings.

It would surely be the peak of his life.

Second-to-last row.

Yu Wen came over to Lu Qiqi:

"Qiqi, the day before yesterday was your birthday."

"Did your boyfriend give you a present?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiqi rummaged through her desk and threw a box onto it:

"Seriously, what a jinx, what he gave me made me so mad, mad enough to ignore him for a whole day!"

Her voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of the boys in the row behind, a topic that indeed drew interest.

When Yu Wen first saw the box, it looked quite exquisite. Whatever was inside seemed to be of good quality, probably jewelry, and she felt envious.

Compared to the other simpler girls, Yu Wen and a few others were more mature and more vain.

"What’s inside?" she asked.

"Just open it and see for yourself," Lu Qiqi said with a displeased look.

Yu Wen opened the box, only to find that it contained a button. She examined it closely:

"It’s just a regular button, not worth a dime."

Lu Qiqi became even more irritated as she mentioned it:

"Do you know what nonsense he said? He said this button, the one closest to his heart, he’s giving it to the person dear to his heart."

Yu Wen: "He just didn’t want to spend money."

Wang Longlong enjoyed reading literary classics, he could imagine the romantic gesture and said:

"Actually, the gift is quite nice."

Dan Kaiquan also said, "I think it’s good, thoughtful."

Yu Wen caught Dan Kaiquan off-guard with a retort: "Thoughtful my ass! What if it were your birthday, and I folded a little boat and told you it’s the boat in my heart, sailing to your soul’s harbor?"

After Yu Wen said this, even she was taken aback, "Wow, I’m quite the talent, literally a genius."

"Not willing to give an expensive gift, so you pick some cheap junk and say it took effort, hilarious," Yu Wen continued her tirade.

Dan Kaiquan had initially thought the gift was okay, but after Yu Wen’s remarks, he was immediately convinced and didn’t know how to argue.

Guo Kunnan saw his good friend Kaiquan being criticized and felt uncomfortable as they were part of the newly formed ’Nan Quan Group’.

How could he just look out for himself?

"Yu Wen, let me say something fair. Giving a gift isn’t about the gift itself, but about the intention behind it. Since Lu Qiqi’s boyfriend gave it, no matter what the gift was, she should be thankful rather than disdainful."

Guo Kunnan sounded almost like an elder.

Yu Wen, with a look of disdain, retorted:

"You sound so reasonable, seem to know so much, then how come you still got someone to post about you in the forum last time?"

Guo Kunnan’s face darkened, damn, did someone still remember that!

He too, fell silent.

Lu Qiqi saw her critics silenced by her good friend Yu Wen and felt even more justified in her stance.

"I’ll ignore him tomorrow, he must apologize and make it up with a proper gift. It was too perfunctory!"

Yu Wen instigated from the sidelines, "Make him double the compensation, don’t let him off easily."

Lu Qiqi stated, "I’ve decided, I want that perfume. If he doesn’t give it to me tomorrow, then consider this relationship over."

Yu Wen, "That perfume costs over three hundred yuan, smells really nice, quite fitting for you."

Wang Longlong commented, "Over three hundred? That’s too expensive, how long do you have to save up?"

His family was okay financially, but his weekly allowance was just under one hundred yuan.

Yu Wen: "No pressure, no drive."

Ma Shicheng looked up at her and asked, "What about the pressure on you guys?"

Yu Wen was stunned but soon recognized Ma Shicheng, remembering past grievances, old and new resentments surged up.

If there was anyone in class eight she hated the most, the first would undoubtedly be Yang Sheng, who severely trampled on her dignity and body, and the second would definitely be Ma Shicheng, who had targeted her multiple times.

"He’s under pressure, he’s willing, and he likes Lu Qiqi, what’s it to you?"

She looked down on Ma Shicheng with contempt and said sarcastically:

"Not like you, always clutching a phone playing games."

"What future is there in playing games? Lu Qiqi’s boyfriend, he never plays games."

Yu Wen shot her words like a Gatling gun:

"Moreover, he’s in the senior grade two experimental class, he might get into a first-tier college, what about you?"

"Ma Shicheng, why aren’t you talking?" frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Feeling inferior, ha ha ha."

Yu Wen covered her mouth, laughing so hard she shook.

She had won, and won big.

After a brief silence.

Finally, Ma Shicheng spoke, not even looking up:

"The game’s started."
