Chapter 78: After three and a half years 4
“He’s nowhere near as good as our class leader, full of freckles on his face.”
“He’s not as tall as you, Feng Yicong.”
“His grades definitely aren’t as impressive as hers.”
Are boys the real gossips?
The confessor couldn’t believe it and turned to look at Zhao Zhaowei and the others speaking.
“Where are you from?” Zhao Zhaowei stepped forward and asked him.
“We’re in the same class as her.”
“I see.” The boy laughed, “I know, you don’t dare to chase her because you can’t compete with her, right?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhaowei and the others got furious and surrounded the boy. “You think you can chase her with your looks, with your level? Let’s make it clear, if you want to chase her, at least beat the forty-nine of us first!”
“Why should I accept your terms? I just need her to agree, it’s none of your business!”
“How is it unrelated? Aren’t you a man? As a man, can you be worse than your girl?”
“What are you, effeminate?”
“What did you score on calculus? Are you as good as her?”
“Do some pull-ups. She just did twenty. Hurry up and do twenty-one, and we’ll consider you won!”
Twenty-one pull-ups? The boy looked at the horizontal bar, cold as a Nanji popsicle in the chill wind, struggling to do even one!
The boy felt faint, his steps weakening.
“Twenty-one, we’ll count for you!”
Zhao Zhaowei and his group started pushing the boy towards the horizontal bar.
But when the boy reached the bar, he suddenly turned and ran as if his life depended on it, sprinting out of the playground and disappearing in no time.
“What a useless guy. With that look, he dares to chase the princess of our class?”
“Instructor Ren said from the start that she’s our class princess, and nobody’s allowed to bully her.”
At that moment, all forty-nine boys remembered that someone was the princess of the class.
Without having said a word, Xie Wanying saw the matter had already ended. She didn’t feel much about it; after all, she would never accept the invitation. She had never considered dating during her studies. Studying medicine, the most demanding subject in the world, where was the time for romance?
After exercising, she bought breakfast and returned to the dorm.
The two senior sisters who were on night shifts at the hospital had come back, seemingly having witnessed the incident at the playground, and they kept giggling at her.
“No wonder, I always found it strange that our lovely junior sister received no suitors.” He Xiangyu whispered with a laugh to her senior sister Lau Jingyun.
Lau Jingyun nodded in agreement while laughing elegantly.
Turns out there was a wall of forty-nine guys blocking the pursuit squad. Nothing could be said.
After hearing this, Xie Wanying winked at the seniors: What about you two, isn’t it the same? Both of you are also the princesses of your class, the only girls there.
“Our class supervisors aren’t Instructor Ren,” clarified He Xiangyu. “Instructor Ren only ever called you ‘princess’ ha.”
“When I heard him calling someone ‘princess’, I had mixed feelings,” Xie Wanying candidly shared her feelings back then.
Realizing the implication in her words, both senior sisters fell silent for a moment.
Lau Jingyun directly sat on the bench without a word. Being the only girl in the class was worthless. Whether in the hospital or the university, retention was based solely on one’s abilities.
The anesthesiology department was already full, and keeping anyone was challenging. The eight-year class had its advantages, but they weren’t absolute. With her graduation only six months away, the decision to retain her at Guoxie’s anesthesiology department was still undecided.
