Chapter 56 Encounter, Plan
Tang Lang tremblingly delivered the list to the office. Su Ranran was complaining to several subject teachers. When she saw Tang Lang knocking on the door, there was silence from inside.
Tang Lang nervously handed the list to Su Ranran, his forehead covered with cold sweat, and said carefully: "Teacher, this is the list of everyone who has re-registered. Can you see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted?"
Su Ranran sipped the water comfortably, flipped through the book carefully, nodded after a while, and said with satisfaction: "That's it. By the way, pass out these papers, and take this list of homework assigned by the teachers back to the classroom and copy it on the blackboard, and then you can leave."
Tang Lang felt relieved and smiled. He returned to the classroom with a pile of papers in his arms. As soon as he entered the classroom, he cheered, "Classmates, the teacher said that we can leave school after we hand out these papers and copy this homework list on the blackboard."
Everyone perked up when they heard that, but after looking at the homework list that Tang Lang brought back, they started wailing again.
"What the hell is this? Can't we have a good school sports meet?" Cai Long complained crazily, lying on the table listlessly, as if his soul had run away from home.
Zhang Wanwan counted on her fingers and muttered, "Today is Wednesday. The school sports meet will be on Saturday, and we have a day off on Sunday. That means we have five nights and one day. It's still okay to divide it up."
Leng Ziyue next to him suddenly asked, "Do you still want to go to the library to study?"
"What?" Zhang Wanwan looked at him warily. She had not forgotten how this guy had copied her homework crazily before.
Seeing that Zhang Wanwan had no intention of going to the library, Leng Ziyue simply stopped talking and continued to sleep on his stomach, which made her confused.
After school, because she didn't have to go to class the next day, Zhang Wanwan went to Century Square for a walk and bought herself a pair of sports shoes. Since she had agreed to participate in the school sports meet, she naturally had to show her attitude. Now that the weather was cold, she still needed a pair of shoes.
The pedestrian street wasn't really busy on Wednesday evening yet. The constant stream of people were mostly people who had just got off work or were rushing to work the night shift. There weren't many people really shopping.
Zhang Wanwan had never bought clothes or shoes in this place, so she just found a shoe store with ordinary decoration and went in. Sneakers are more expensive than sandals and canvas shoes. She only had 200 yuan on her, so she would not buy anything more than that.
Fortunately, the store she chose was not expensive, and she spent only $120 to get a pair of pretty good women's sneakers.
When Zhang Wanwan was carrying her things out of the shoe store and was about to go to Zhang's father and mother's place to help, she happened to bump into Yan Zeyu who was passing by on a bicycle.
Zhang Wanwan hasn't spoken to Yan Zeyu for a long time since they left without saying goodbye last time and the Huang Liting incident happened. He didn't take the initiative to find her in Class 1. The two of them seemed like strangers. She heard most of the news about Yan Zeyu from the chatterbox Tian Sen. It was a bit awkward to meet him now. However, Yan Zeyu took the initiative to stop in front of Zhang Wanwan as if nothing had happened.
"What? Are you here to buy something?" Yan Zeyu took a look at the shoe store and knew what Zhang Wanwan bought.
Zhang Wanwan smiled and said, "Buy a pair of shoes."
"You signed up for the school sports meet."
The tone of these words was affirmative, which surprised Zhang Wanwan. "How did you know?"
Yan Zeyu grinned, "I saw your class's list of participants in the office before school was over. Good luck tomorrow!"
"Yeah." Zhang Wanwan smiled and nodded, then waved to Yan Zeyu and said, "It's getting late. I have to go to my parents' place to help. I'm leaving now. Bye."
Yan Zeyu rarely met Zhang Wanwan here, so he simply said, "I heard that your grilled oysters are delicious. My brothers have been there several times to support you, but I have never eaten them. I don't have classes tomorrow, so why not go over and try them now."
Zhang Wanwan was helpless, "Then let's go together."
The Zhang family's stall was in an alley on the pedestrian street, and it took less than two minutes to get there by bike. There weren't many customers when they arrived, so Zhang's father had time to greet them. When they saw Yan Zeyu coming, Zhang's father and mother immediately became incredibly enthusiastic and said they would treat Yan Zeyu to barbecue.
That enthusiasm even gave Zhang Wanwan a headache, but Yan Zeyu was very patient and was always able to respond to whatever Zhang's father and mother said. The three of them were so harmonious that Zhang Wanwan felt like an outsider.
Thanks to Yan Zeyu, Zhang Wanwan’s dinner is milk tea and barbecue.
After sending Yan Zeyu away, who had enjoyed his meal, Zhang Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. Are they reconciled now? But it seemed that something was wrong again, but she didn't understand it, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
The next day, Zhang Wanwan went to school fifteen minutes earlier than usual. She thought there wouldn't be many people in the school so early, but everyone was as excited as ever, especially the students who had competitions that morning. They were all ready to go in their class base early in the morning.
Their class's base camp was close to the tree-lined avenue. They all said it was nice to sit back against a big tree and enjoy the shade. With the tents set up, it was indeed very cool. There were only a few classmates sitting inside chatting. It was still a little cold in the autumn morning, so most people put on long sleeves outside. The others had gone to visit other classes.
When Zhang Wanwan entered, Luo Jingyun immediately pulled her over and chattered non-stop, "Wanwan, the event schedule is out. The men's competition is in the morning, and the women's 800m and 50m relay are in the afternoon. The 1500m race is scheduled for tomorrow. Because the number of girls' competitions is half that of boys, it can be done in about half a day. Our competition is in the afternoon, come on!"
"Yeah, yeah, friendship comes first, competition comes second, just do your best." Zhang Wanwan doesn't have a strong desire to win or lose when it comes to sports. She signed up for two events this time to see if there are any changes in her body that has been transformed by the spiritual spring water. She usually focuses on studying and doesn't care about these things at all. She only went to the park with Zhang Baiyan for a run last time. She was quite a runner that time and ran around the park in one breath, but she attributed that to a stress reaction due to long-term lack of exercise.
"I don't think so! You don't know, Huang Liting from Class 3 has also signed up, and she's registered the same events as you, the 800-meter and 50-meter relay. How could it be such a coincidence? They are Class 3, and we are Class 1. We signed up for the same events to compete with each other. Ever since we made a big fuss about Class 3 last time, a rift has developed between the two classes. They can't beat us in terms of grades, and they must be thinking of severely crushing our spirits in the school sports meet, especially the two of you. You don't think Huang Liting is the kind of person who is magnanimous, do you? How can she not bear a grudge after what happened last time?" Luo Jingyun sneered, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Zhang Wanwan seemed to be saying, how could you be so naive and easy to bully!
