Chapter 139 Things I Don’t Know
The brother and sister turned their heads together and glared at the two eavesdroppers.
"Sorry, I didn't realize you were brother and sister!" Samuel said with a smile, and did not forget to make amends:
"But since her brother is 'Little Superman', her sister will surely be no worse."
Oroi was not so smooth, he just looked at Zhang Wei and the others with a bit of apology:
"I'm sorry, we didn't mean to do that."
"Although it's indeed impolite of you to do this, I just forgot who you were and why you followed me, so I won't mind it."
After Namir finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei didn't care that much. She had felt that their laughter was inappropriate, which made her feel a little embarrassed when she boasted.
"It's okay, we are telling the truth!" Zhang Wei waved his hand and said indifferently.
Oroi wanted to laugh again, but seeing the threatening look in Zhang Wei's eyes, the corners of his mouth lowered again.
"Yes, our Vera is not only an outstanding person, but also the best at climbing. She's no worse than you!"
Namir said, his eyes sweeping over the badges on Oroi and Samuel's chests.
Zhang Wei knew that Namier was still concerned about not receiving the King's Scholarship before, so she puffed out her chest and was happy to save his face.
Samuel looked at the two siblings. Although they didn't look alike, their expressions were exactly the same, like two victorious roosters. He immediately agreed:
"Well, yes, Vera is great, and you're amazing too. There's no student in the first grade who's more athletically talented than you!"
Zhang Wei didn't know why she had to accompany Namier in such a childish way, but when she was about to fall, a relative suddenly appeared and supported her, which made her feel really warm in her heart.
Looking at Namir with his mouth curled up, she seemed to see the childish and stubborn little boy in her childhood who had never grown up.
At this time, there was another cry of surprise from the finish line. Zhang Wei looked and saw that the seven monkeys were almost at the finish line, followed closely by Alia and several other girls whose names he could not remember.
Perhaps because they were so impressed by the scene of being overtaken by Zhang Wei, the boys who were struggling to climb up had only one thing to say:
Never let anyone laugh at you again!
At the moment when they were about to be overtaken, they suddenly sped up and climbed forward as if their little universe had exploded. Finally, all seven of them successfully reached their destination before Alia and the others.
At the same time, cheers of victory rang out from the boys, but they stopped laughing immediately.
Only then did they realize that the boys were taking the wild cat path, while Alia and the others were taking the swan path.
Once the girls were down the ropes, the mountainside suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
"Great!" Zhang Wei walked over and supported the trembling Alia.
Although she looked very tired, her eyes were bright: "Although you are still more powerful, I think I am not bad either!"
"Yes, you are very good!" Zhang Wei agreed with a smile.
"I'm sorry!" Alia suddenly said to her, "I think I was wrong before. Only strength can always give you confidence. I apologize for my previous behavior!"
Zhang Wei shook her head. She had done nothing wrong and she had not been hurt.
It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. Alia is in a foreign country just like her. Everyone has the right to choose what they want to do and what they don't want to do.
They weren't very familiar with each other, so she accepted the apology, but it was impossible for her to treat her roommates as friends as before.
From this incident, she also understood that no matter how simple the environment is, as long as there are people, there will be conflicts of interest.
But what Alia said is so true: "Strength is the eternal confidence"
That's why she doesn't bother with Professor Townsley for the time being. If you want to fight for your rights, you must have the strength and confidence to match them.
After Alia and the others came up, Namir went to the boys' side with Oroi and the others and told her to go to him if she encountered any trouble.
The last boy, Art, was finally approaching the destination as all the boys expected, although another group of girls arrived before him.
The boys sighed at him, feeling disappointed, even though Art wasn't the only one responsible. Afterwards, they couldn't help but point fingers at Zhang Wei and the others who had arrived first.
However, when he learned that the first place was Namier's "superman" sister, he did not dare to say anything excessive.
Because in a corner of the boys' school that Zhang Wei didn't know about, Namier had started three fights since the beginning of the school year, and won all of them, including one against a senior in the third year of junior high school. This made Namier very popular among the freshmen.
The tradition of upper grades bullying lower grades is long-standing, and even a gentlemanly and aristocratic school like Devon is not immune to it. Namier's victory helped everyone vent their anger, and the status of the boys' world was established in such a simple and unpretentious way.
To be honest, if Zhang Wei knew about this, she would also want to use this straightforward method, such as isolation and framing. It would be better to just slap them a few times and see who dares to mess with her again.
Just like Butch, she wanted to beat her up when she eavesdropped in the laboratory building, but girls are not like boys, once they start fighting, things will get out of hand.
The boys waited until the last person arrived, then went down the mountain together in shame to have lunch.
Even the leading teacher over there was ridiculing them. They were too embarrassed to stay on the mountain for long and just wanted to leave quickly.
"Huh..." Alia breathed out in relief, and so did the other girls. It was obvious that the boys' ambiguous glances put some pressure on them.
Then we started chatting casually:
"Do you think the people behind them really have to walk another ten kilometers?"
"Maybe. We'll know after we see how many more people come up."
Everyone waited together for about half an hour, and less than a hundred people came up in total, but it was already more people than when they set out before.
The team leader announced that the activity was completed and asked them to go down the mountain to have lunch first. The next activity tasks would be assigned to them based on their performance this time.
It’s good to have a difference. The people who arrive first from the Canghu path are the happiest at this time, which means their work is not in vain.
Although the old saying goes that it is easier to go up a mountain than to go down, this was not just an ordinary climb. The way down the mountain was very easy to walk on. Everyone took advantage of the momentum of the downhill and jogged all the way. They reached the foot of the mountain in less than three minutes.
At this point, everyone can't help but wonder if they really only climbed this far? Why did it feel like they had climbed a huge distance?
When they arrived at the place where they had been resting before, Zhang Wei looked for her bag and saw that it was still there.
She originally wanted to go over and check her backpack, but Alia had already pulled her over to get lunch. She was also very hungry at this time, so she went to get lunch first.
