Chapter 61 Rescue
"Fan Yunxiang, please stand a little to the side. Ke Wei, hold the banner a little higher. Okay, everyone, don't move."
"One, two, three, another one, smile brighter, someone just closed their eyes, okay, no problem."
“OK!”
A dozen young men and women lined up in a row, holding a large banner in their hands - "There is no end to the climb, struggle in life - build the national spirit together", with a line of small words below: Publicity Department of the Student Union of the School of Economics of the National University.
The photographer made an OK gesture, and Chen Shuyao still had a smile on her face.
"Shuyao, I think we can discuss the reward plan for this morning's mountain climbing competition again?" A boy in sportswear and black-framed glasses walked up to Shen Shuyao and discussed in a low voice.
Chen Shuyao had her hair tied up in a ponytail. She had just finished climbing a mountain and had done quite a bit of exercise. Her face was flushed, which contrasted with the white of her pink sportswear, making her look even more rosy.
Chen Shuyao smiled sweetly: "Senior Weining, the rankings are already out, it's not easy to change them."
Ruan Weining was the deputy director of the Propaganda Department last year, and he is still the deputy director now that he is a junior.
Ruan Weining thinks he is not Chen Shuyao's bootlicker because he has a girlfriend.
He just felt that Shen Shuyao had just become a minister and lacked experience, so she needed his help.
Bah! Are you trying to help me? You're just coveting her body! How despicable!
His girlfriend went back to her hometown to celebrate the festival, and Ruan Weining, as the deputy director of the Propaganda Department, happened to help Shen Shuyao organize this event.
Shu Yao is still too young and doesn't think things through carefully. I have to help her fill in the gaps.
Besides, how could Lu Yuan have gotten first place? He's just a freshman, and he dares to sneer at me. It seems he hasn't experienced the harshness of society.
See how I educate you.
Huh? Shu Yao's face is so red, is she shy?
Hearing that Shen Shuyao's tone of refusal was not too firm, Ruan Weining continued to press forward: "Shuyao, the reward plan we decided on before, only the top three will get rewards, right? The first place will get a 1000 meal card, the second place will get 500, and the third place will get 300."
"But look, not counting the three officials from our Propaganda Department, there are a total of thirty-three students participating in this event, including quite a few freshmen. Isn't the reward for the top three too high? My idea is to increase the reward to 500 for first place, 300 for second place, and 100 for third place. And we can give each of the remaining thirty students an encouragement award."
Chen Shuyao interrupted Ruan Weining with a smile, "Senior Weining, we set such high rewards for the top three just to motivate everyone. Besides, everyone was very motivated just now, right?"
Ruan Weining said earnestly, "Shu Yao, the problem isn't the lack of benefits, but the inequality. With this plan, only the top three students will benefit. If we really implement it this way, we'll offend the remaining thirty students. Then they'll say something unpleasant on the BBS, which won't have a good impact either. Why bother?"
Chen Shuyao smiled slightly, her voice was gentle, but her tone was firm: "Deputy Minister Ruan, your consideration may indeed make sense. But I still insist on my allocation plan. In addition, although we are off campus now, this is also a collective activity organized by the school. During collective activities, let's still address each other by their positions, okay?"
Ruan Weining was stunned. This was the first time he saw Chen Shuyao's strong side. He said a few polite words like "I'm doing this for your own good" and then turned and left.
"Just ignore him! This Ruan guy is really no good." Meimei looked at Ruan Weining angrily as he left. "What a rotten idea! We've already got a place, and you're still changing the plan. Isn't this clearly trying to make you offend people?"
"You should have told him just now that since you think there should be an encouragement award, then you should pay for it. What a crap. Yaoyao, you are too kind and too easy to be bullied." Meimei said indignantly.
"However, he does have a point, Yaoyao. We should have considered everyone's feelings before announcing the plan. Everyone's physical condition is different, and in the end, only the most physically fit people will get the bonus. It's really a bit unfair."
Chen Shuyao smiled softly and took Meimei's arm: "Okay, at first I also wanted to set up more awards, but isn't this due to insufficient funds?"
Although Shen Shuyao said this, a hint of disapproval flashed in her eyes.
Even if there is funding, I will not set up any encouragement awards.
In this world, the strong should own everything. What right do the weak have to bark like dogs?
After entering society, will anyone treat you preferentially just because you have a lower IQ, slower reaction, or worse ability than others?
How naive.
It is said that it is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down, but in fact, it took these students two and a half hours to go up the mountain, and less than 40 minutes to go down the mountain before they reached the gathering place.
After getting on the bus, Shen Shuyao counted the number of people and clapped her hands.
"None of the 33 of us was late. Thank you very much for your cooperation, classmates. You are all great." Chen Shuyao made a heart shape with her hands.
"We left school at five o'clock today, and after climbing the mountain for so long, I know everyone is tired and hungry. I won't say any clichés, so let's go straight to lunch. Yuyang has the word 'fish' in its name, and besides Wuzhong Mountain, there's also Huaqiao Reservoir. The fish heads at Huaqiao Reservoir are said to be especially delicious. Oh, just thinking about it makes my stomach growl. Let's go to the reservoir to eat fish, okay?"
"Okay!" They were all young people, and although most of them didn't know each other very well, after a morning of exercise, they had already developed a basic understanding with each other.
What's more, this is Shen Shuyao, one of the two goddesses of the Academy.
More than half of the boys who registered came for Chen Shuyao.
Must support.
The bus driver was a local. When going down the mountain, he drove the bus like a roller coaster, scaring dozens of students.
Chen Shuyao was also screaming along with everyone else, but if you looked closely, you would find that she was not screaming out of fear.
But excitement.
The bus rushed all the way and finally stopped at the gate of a yard. Almost all the students looked pale when they got off the bus. Two girls even vomited as soon as they got off the bus.
"The scenery here is really quite nice." A boy who was at least 1.8 meters tall and had a strong physique casually chatted with Shen Shuyao, "These people have very poor physical fitness, but it's no wonder, they used to be a bunch of nerds. Senior sister, I think we can organize this kind of activity on a small scale in the future. If the levels are not on the same level, it will be boring to play."
"Everyone has their own strengths. Lu Yuan, congratulations on being the first to reach the summit today." Chen Shuyao took off her sun hat and the leather string of her ponytail, letting her long honey-brown hair flow smoothly down. "Sorry, it's a bit hot."
Lu Yuan was stunned and stared at Chen Shuyao for several seconds. Only when he saw Chen Shuyao's half-smile did he look away embarrassedly.
"Cough cough, it's quite hot." Lu Yuan coughed twice and looked around unnaturally.
"Look, there are people camping and fishing over there. It seems that the fish here are quite big. I think the fishing rod is about to break. Ah, as expected, he let go." Lu Yuan quickly changed the subject.
Chen Shuyao followed Lu Yuan's gaze and saw an open space across the road with two cars parked there and a tent. It looked like a family was out playing with their children.
Huh? Seeing a figure by the water, Shen Shuyao was a little surprised. She didn't expect to meet Fang Yu here.
Do you want to go over and say hello?
Chen Shuyao was hesitating, but out of the corner of her eye she saw the fishing man's discarded fishing rod being picked up by the little girl next to him who was only a little over one meter tall.
Danger!
Chen Shuyao quickly ran to the open space, but was too late to stop her and watched helplessly as the little girl was dragged into the reservoir by the fishing rod.
Chen Shuyao jumped into the reservoir without thinking.
The moment she jumped down, Shen Shuyao saw Fang Yu, who was wearing a black T-shirt, jump down first.
After Yi Yi fell into the water, although he had let go of the fishing rod, he did not do so immediately.
People who can't swim will subconsciously hold on to anything around them when they are in the water. Yi Yi was not strong enough, but she was still dragged by the big fish for at least ten meters until the big fish struggled hard and she couldn't hold on any longer, so she let go.
Fang Yu didn't see clearly who jumped down, he just felt that the other person was swimming very fast.
I was clearly the one who jumped down first, but in just one or two seconds, the other person was already a body length ahead of me.
The distance of more than ten meters was just a matter of two flaps for Chen Shuyao, and she quickly caught Yi Yi who was sinking.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, sister is here, don't grab sister's arm, relax. Um~" Chen Shuyao had just grabbed Yi Yi when the little girl who kept choking on water hugged her arm.
Fortunately, nothing serious happened, but it's only a few meters away, and I can still swim with only one arm left.
No, why does it feel so heavy?
It was sportswear! I went into the water wearing sportswear!
Shen Shuyao reacted immediately.
The pure cotton pink sports hoodie suddenly became much heavier after absorbing water. Moreover, because the hoodie is relatively wide, the resistance of each stroke increased several times after it was filled with water.
What’s even worse is that under Yi Yi’s octopus-like embrace, Shen Shuyao felt like she was sinking!
At this moment, Chen Shuyao suddenly felt a pair of strong arms lifting herself and Yi Yi out of the water.
It’s Fang Yu!
Chen Shuyao reacted immediately, turned sideways, and motioned Fang Yu to take Yi Yi away first.
Fang Yu didn't hesitate to pull Yi Yi under his armpit, and with his other hand, he suddenly pulled Shen Shuyao and pulled the hoodie off her head.
Black? Nice shape.
Fang Yu just took a glance, paddled a few times quickly, rushed to the shore, picked up Yi Yi, and handed the little girl to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi hurried to check on Yi Yi's condition, but seeing that Yi Yi was crying so hard, it seemed that nothing serious was wrong.
"Are you okay?" Fang Yu wiped the water off his face and turned around to ask Chen Shuyao.
Chen Shuyao nodded. Without the hoodie as a hindrance, the pink pants alone had no effect on her.
"Splash!" Fang Yu pushed himself up with both hands and jumped onto the shore. He quickly picked up a windbreaker from the ground and handed it to Chen Shuyao who had just come ashore.
"Wear this to cover yourself up first."
This is the only chapter for today. I wrote it in the hospital and I will probably have to stay there for three days. I will try my best to update twice a day during these three days. If I can't update twice, I will update three times after I am discharged from the hospital.
I'm in a bad state today.
