Chapter 87 Eighteen-Year-Old Coming-of-Age Ceremony
In a blink of an eye, more than a year has passed.
Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan's campus life has reached its fifteenth year.
That is the third year of high school.
Over the past year or so.
Lin Zichen's biological level has successfully evolved to the ordinary sixth level, and all his physical data have been greatly improved.
The 100-meter sprint takes only 2.87 seconds.
The vertical jump in place can reach 8.32 meters.
Able to lift 2450kg with one hand.
During the summer vacation of his second year in high school, he once again brought a championship trophy to Shanhai Middle School, completing an unprecedented second consecutive championship, breaking the school's history and becoming the first person in Shanhai Middle School to do so.
Shen Qinghan is not as outstanding as him, but in the past year or so, he has also gained a lot and his studies have been improving.
After working hard day after day, her martial arts performance in the class successfully broke through the bottom 10 and came to the 12th from the bottom.
Counting correctly, she is ranked 34th in the class, among the top ten girls in the class.
Being able to achieve such a relatively good result, no one would use this to attack her even if she was a person with connections.
Thanks to this, her personality became more cheerful and outgoing day by day. She felt like she had returned to her childhood before going to school and loved to laugh every day.
As for the research on super powers, there has been no progress in the past year or so.
…
This day is October 14th.
Shen Qinghan celebrated her 18th birthday.
Lin Zichen is only one day older than her and just celebrated his birthday yesterday.
So, the two families got together in the evening and set up a simple celebration at home to hold an 18th birthday ceremony for the childhood sweethearts who grew up together.
"Okay, now that the candles are blown out, it's time to exchange gifts."
"You two handsome boys and beautiful girls, quickly take out the gifts you carefully prepared and give them to each other. I'll take a picture of you as a souvenir."
"I'll be in charge of the video."
Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin, a married couple, the former was responsible for recording videos with his mobile phone, while the latter was responsible for taking photos with his camera.
The couple Shen Jianye and Xu Meng, on the other hand, were more quiet. They just sat there with smiles on their faces, witnessing the moment when their two children gave each other adult gifts.
"Xiaochen, this is a gift from me to you."
Shen Qinghan picked up a photo frame covered with a cloth from behind her, carefully placed it upright on the table, and said to Lin Zichen with a sweet smile.
The photo frame is very large, and its length and width appear to be close to one meter.
I don’t know what kind of painting is inside that requires such a large frame.
"Hurry up and lift the cloth. You will be surprised when you see the painting inside."
Shen Qinghan said with a confident smile.
Zhang Wanxin, who was taking photos in the front, couldn't help but jokingly said, "Hanhan, what you said sounds like a bride urging the groom to take off the red veil."
Lin Yansheng echoed, "Haha, indeed. I don't know when my son will be able to unveil his red veil."
Shen Qinghan's face turned red due to the teasing. She shyly turned her gaze away from Lin Zichen, feeling embarrassed to look him in the eye.
Lin Zichen was calm, with a slight smile on his face. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed a corner of the cloth, and lifted it up with some anticipation.
The next moment, a colorful portrait came into his sight.
It's a watercolor painting.
Draw three people standing together.
One is him, the other is him, and the remaining one is still him.
However, these three have different forms.
The one at the back on the left is a genetic fusionist with wings on his back, and there is wildness in his eyes.
He is in the front middle, in normal human form wearing a school uniform, and looks harmless.
The one at the back on the right is a cyborg with most of his body covered in alloy, exuding a cold and ruthless aura.
When the three forms stand together, it feels like an angel and a devil are always accompanying an ordinary person. It is full of contrasts and very artistic.
As soon as this painting was unveiled, before Lin Zichen could even begin to express his feelings, Zhang Wanxin in front of him exclaimed:
"Hanhan, you are amazing! This is such a beautiful painting! Aunt Xin is really shocked by you!"
"This watercolor painting took Hanhan a whole year to create, and she finally finished it the day before yesterday. The waste paper before it was completed could fill up an entire school bag."
Xu Meng said with a smile.
She had witnessed all the hard work Shen Qinghan had put into this painting over the past year.
As a mother, she must fully convey her daughter's feelings to Lin Zichen to further deepen their relationship.
Looking at the three of himself in the painting and listening to the conversation between the two mothers, Lin Zichen looked up at Shen Qinghan in front of him, stared into her eyes, and said with true feelings:
"This is the best gift I have ever received and I will treasure it forever."
"That's a must."
Shen Qinghan's eyes curved into crescents, and her pretty face was filled with smiles.
After hearing Lin Zichen's answer, she felt that all the effort she had put into this watercolor painting over the past year had paid off.
Lin Zichen put away the watercolor painting on the table and carefully placed it on the sofa beside him.
Then he picked up a bag from the sofa and handed it to Shen Qinghan, saying in a gentle voice:
"This is a gift from me to you. I made it all by myself. I hope you like it after seeing it."
"I'm sure you'll like it."
Shen Qinghan took the bag with anticipation on her face and smiled softly.
Then he couldn't wait to open the bag and found that the gift inside was also a photo frame.
The only difference is that this photo frame is a bit smaller, and its length and width look about the same as a student certificate.
But it is very thick, as thick as a dictionary.
What is inside the frame is not a painting, but specimens of up to 20 kinds of small flowers.
There are baby's breath, morning glory, plum blossom, orchid and so on.
Among them, the small flower in the middle of the photo frame is her favorite dandelion.
At this moment, these small flower specimens are fixed in the interlayer of the photo frame with special soft glue filling materials. They look lifelike and very beautiful.
"Xiaochen, I love this gift so much!"
Looking at the flowers in the specimen photo frame, Shen Qinghan's eyes were full of joy, and she couldn't let go of this birthday gift from Lin Zichen.
Seeing that both of their gifts were photo frames, Zhang Wanxin couldn't help but ask curiously, "The gifts are both photo frames. Did you two agree in advance to give each other these?"
Shen Qinghan replied: "We didn't agree on it, it was just a coincidence."
Zhang Wanxin smiled and said, "As expected of childhood sweethearts, they even thought of the same gift for each other. I'm afraid they've developed a spiritual bond."
After that, she continued, "Come, take your gifts and sit together. I'll take a picture of you as a souvenir."
Hearing this, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan took the gifts they received and sat down on the sofa nearby.
The two of them sat very close to each other, their legs touching and their shoulders touching, looking very intimate.
