"The dust has not yet settled, and anyone can be a dark horse. That concludes my speech, thank you everyone!"
Shen Nian muttered through the rest of his script, and the host was already waiting in the back to take over.
Reading a script was actually pretty easy. Even though there were drones flying around recording from above and people carrying cameras filming from below, Shen Nian didn't feel nervous at all.
Calm and composed, unfazed by unexpected events... this could be considered a form of growing stronger.
Shen Nian left the backstage area, and his quest was completed at the same time.
The easiest episode yet, even more relaxing than the quest to find a cat. After all, the 100-day pledge rally was already on his schedule. Even without the quest, he would have had to go on stage.
It was just a convenient coincidence.
It had been a while since he received a title reward. The title was automatically equipped the moment the quest was completed.
Except for the Adventurer series titles, all titles could coexist. [Blazing Vanguard] was listed together with [Glimmer Trial] and [Lucky Star].
If titles were visible, there would definitely be a long string of them above his head.
After the student representative came the parent representative, followed by the mass swearing-in ceremony. The concluding segment also took quite a bit of time.
By the time he returned to the classroom, there wasn't much time left in the first period.
Xia Yanchun had also written the large characters "Only 100 days left until the College Entrance Examination" on the edge of the blackboard.
"Holy crap, I'm fired up!" Ma Mingfan's blood was boiling. "I'm going to finish a four-page physics paper in the next two periods!"
"I can finish a four-page one in a single period," Shen Nian said, resting his face on his hand from behind.
"Damn it, can you not pour cold water on me! I really need to restrain you, Shen Nian."
"Ahem, keep it up. Oh right, I'll send you my treasured study materials another day."
"People change, Shen Nian. Watching porn now is undoubtedly the greatest denial of oneself."
Shen Nian's eyelid twitched. The term 'study materials' had been thoroughly stigmatized.
He really just wanted to share the advanced online courses he had spent a long time looking for. If one worked hard for a month and fully digested these courses, getting an eighty in physics would be a piece of cake, and even a ninety wasn't out of the question.
Even he gained something from watching those online courses, let alone Ma Mingfan.
Whatever, he would just send it to him later. The kid was just foolish, but he was willing to work hard. He hoped Ma Mingfan would keep improving.
Lunch break.
Today, Shen Nian ate late, having lunch together with Xia Yanchun and a few familiar girls.
"Shen Nian, you're amazing... I never expected you to be the best in our class."
"Yeah, yeah, you improved so fast. Did you really not go to a tutoring center in private?!"
"Boohoo, no matter how hard I try, I can only score six hundred. I study to death every day but make no progress. I'm just thankful if I don't regress!"
The girls directed the conversation towards Shen Nian, making him too embarrassed to keep his head down and eat.
Good grief, being this outstanding is truly embarrassing.
He chimed in, "If you're working hard but not improving, your study method must be wrong. I remember your physics score is only around sixty or seventy, right? Don't worry about the other subjects for now. Build a solid foundation in physics first, and you can raise your score by over ten points."
"I want to, but physics is so hard. Just looking at it makes my head spin..."
"Keep a mistake notebook, then find some time to go straight to the teacher and ask all your questions at once. A mistake notebook is very useful."
Xia Yanchun kept her head down and ate, feeling no particular emotion.
She wouldn't get jealous just because Shen Nian chatted a bit more with the girls in class. It wasn't like they were in an intimate relationship; she wouldn't be that controlling.
"Hey, I feel like you and the class monitor have a lot of chemistry. You're always making eyes at each other. Is there something going on?"
Hearing this out of the blue, Xia Yanchun almost spat the rice in her mouth right into Li Shiyan's face.
She felt completely flustered and glared angrily at the girl who spoke. "Xiaoxin! What nonsense are you spouting!"
"But I really get that vibe..." Xiaoxin covered her mouth. Girls loved gossiping about these things the most.
"Nothing's going on, don't talk nonsense."
"I know, I know."
Shen Nian took a bite of rice, feeling a sense of deja vu.
It seemed like...
Back in his sophomore year, the rumor that he liked Lin Xiyuan had also spread slowly like this.
Damn rumor-mongers. Don't they know rumors hurt people? They almost caused my nemesis to develop a complex.
Shen Nian suspected that some girl had suddenly blabbed it out, so he decided to just ask directly.
"You can't just say things like that. Oh right, didn't someone spread a rumor before that I liked Lin Xiyuan? Was it you? Was it you?"
"Huh? No." Huang Xin shook her head. "I just heard it from others..."
Another girl muttered, "Didn't that start from the boys' side?"
"I don't know, but I didn't start it!" Huang Xin shook her head vigorously. She didn't want to be wrongly accused!
Shen Nian rubbed his chin and went back to eating.
Usually, people wouldn't spread rumors right in front of the two main parties involved. He could also tell that Huang Xin just wanted to make a joke. It had been too long, and the chances of tracing it back to the source were extremely low. Since the rumor had already passed, he would just let it go.
"But seriously, do you two really not plan on giving it a try? I feel like you're quite a good match," Huang Xin started again.
"Xiaoxin, did you take money from him? Are you playing matchmaker now?" Xia Yanchun reached out and flicked Huang Xin's finger.
"Hehe, I wish I were. If you two really end up together, you definitely have to give me a matchmaking fee."
"Keep talking and I'll ignore you!"
...
After finishing their meal, Shen Nian visited the convenience store for the first time in a while. He bought a cola and also got an AD Calcium Milk for Xia Yanchun.
"Buying cola again." Xia Yanchun, who was waiting at the entrance of the store, crossed her arms. "Shouldn't you control your sugar intake if you're working out?"
"I'm just working out to stay healthy, not to lose weight."
"Oh, true."
"Let's go." Shen Nian tilted his head back and took a big gulp.
Before they even reached the classroom, the bottle was already empty. Xia Yanchun always felt that Shen Nian had a big appetite. If she cooked for him in the future, she would have to put in a lot more rice.
No, no... She definitely wouldn't be a full-time housewife. They should come home from work together and then cook together...
Xia Yanchun felt she was thinking a bit too far ahead. They hadn't even graduated from high school yet!
Entering the classroom, Shen Nian directly closed the front and back doors and pulled down all the curtains, turning the classroom into a small space isolated from the outside world where not even the wind could blow in.
Shen Nian pulled out Li Shiyan's chair and sat down. "Hehe, how was my performance today? Was I super handsome?"
"Just average."
"I was on TV. What about you?"
"Big deal. When the college entrance exam comes, I'll be the first to walk out of the school gates, win the top scorer title, and accept interviews from ten thousand reporters."
"Peak Chun fantasy," Shen Nian held back a laugh.
Xia Yanchun instantly got annoyed. She glared at Shen Nian, raised her hand, and kept poking his forehead.
She had always been a strong contender for the provincial top scorer, okay? How was it a fantasy?
Shen Nian familiarly grabbed Xia Yanchun's hand, placed it on his lap, and played with it. "Chunbao, everyone says we have a lot of chemistry. What should we do? We won't be able to hide it anymore."
"You look pretty happy about it."
"No, Chunbao and I are on the exact same page, okay? If you don't want to go public, then I'll keep it a secret to the very end."
"Glad you know what's good for you. I'll give you a little hug then."
Saying that, Xia Yanchun wrapped her arms around Shen Nian, pulling him into her embrace.
At this hour, there wouldn't be anyone else around. Even though they were in the classroom, they could boldly hug each other.
"You smell so good."
"And you're stinky."
Shen Nian tilted his head. "What smell?"
"Just stinky, a really bad smell."
"Then you're doomed. I'm going to rub my smell all over you."
With that, Shen Nian hugged her even tighter, resting his chin on Xia Yanchun's shoulder, pressing against her as closely as possible.
Xia Yanchun's small face began to flush. With lowered eyes, she breathed warm air against Shen Nian's ear.
She was going to be tainted into a stinky Chunbao.
She didn't know if it was just her imagination, but Xia Yanchun felt that Shen Nian smelled unusually good today.
She wanted to bury herself in his arms.
Like a little piglet, Xia Yanchun nuzzled into Shen Nian's embrace, humming softly, and secretly licked his neck.

The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
