Volume 1: Youth Chapter 6: The Soccer Field's Teddy Bear

  Qingyang is one of the best aristocratic middle schools in ZJ, every year there are countless students eager to get in, not only do they need to have a strong background or connections, but also pay a hefty school selection fee - a Chinese specialty.

  Of course, Zhan Yu Yu is not a girl who is so vain and wasteful. The main reason she insisted on attending this school with a thick face was to pursue Xia Zhi Xia Li Zhu, but what made her worry-free was her identity as a sports special student - exempt from tuition fees and selection fees.

  It's not that the war family can't afford this money, but the war has always adhered to the virtues of a good wife and mother who is frugal and thrifty, thinking that this money is not worth it - learning mainly relies on oneself, and there are still many self-taught successful people. What if you don't learn well and the silver goes down the drain? It's better to save it in the bank for retirement.

  Moreover, Zhan Zhan discovered for the first time that his father's teachings since childhood were still useful, and the title of three-time consecutive national junior martial arts champion was worth several tens of thousands of silver coins! It was worth it!

  At 7:30 in the morning, students were reading during class break, while Zhan Li rode her hoverboard straight to the gymnasium.

  Last night, I spent a lot of brain cells and finally made up my mind. A big man can yield and compromise, why can't a girl like her show off her gentle and weak side? In order to stay with Xia Zhi Gege, it's worth temporarily compromising and asking for help from that Xia Bu Leng! For Xia Zhi Gege, I'd be willing to go through fire and water!

  This little grievance of looking at people's faces will be repaid when she becomes his sister-in-law, and just thinking about him calling her "sister" makes up for everything.

  "Whoa!" Just as he was lost in thought, a shadow suddenly appeared before his eyes. He slammed on the brakes and swerved to avoid it, but his shoulder still took a hit. The impact sent him and his bike tumbling sideways.

  "Are you okay after the big fight?" A loud, duck-like male voice came from beside him, and Zhan Zhu Zhu immediately knew who it was by the tone of his leg.

  "Die, fatty! You're so annoying, aren't you? How dare you ambush me!" Zhang Doudou grunted in pain, "NND, my butt is split in two! I'm not training today, I'm seriously injured, go explain to the coach yourself!"

  "None of my business," Wang Qi hastily waved his chubby hands, a practitioner of soft-style martial arts couldn't beat one who practiced hard-style martial arts. A 180-pound boy couldn't defeat a 90-pound girl. The 170-pound big guy became the underling of the 150-pound one - it was too embarrassing to say out loud.

  Huh? Warlord Lao definitely wouldn't lie to his own face, so he started searching for the culprit - first, it was the basketball that was still rolling on the ground, then, it was the figure that was walking towards him from the basketball court.

  Generally speaking, the people who appear here at this time are usually their sports special students - this is a unique group in Qingyang because those who can endure hardship and practice sports are mostly children from ordinary families, and they have no common language with those who can afford to pay huge tuition fees and choose schools. But the one walking over there was clearly not one of them.

  Zhan Zhan rolled her eyes, no wonder Da Bao came running over to investigate the situation first - after all, his idol was none other than the perfect war god An Ran, who possessed qualities that were not inferior to those of professional athletes. Occasionally, he would make a guest appearance as an athlete representing the school in competitions, but he always occupied the number one spot in academic rankings for the second year of high school - it was said that he had maintained this position since his first year of junior high, becoming another legendary figure spanning both the junior and senior high school departments of Qingyang.

  Zhan Zhan was puzzled again, is heaven a bit unfair? Why don't smart people need to study? Look at An Gongzi, Xia Zhige and Xia Buliang, they don't attend morning and evening self-study sessions or extracurricular activities, yet their grades are still so good.

  An Ran is not a sports student, and his family conditions are also very good. He is handsome and has a charming personality, known as one of the top ten handsome guys in Qingyang. I don't know how many girls he has captivated - even more than the Xia brothers. Who let him have the nickname "fart bug" that scared away a bunch of girls who were pursuing Xia Zhi, directly affecting his market value? Xia Fei Han's cold personality and bad temper also automatically filtered out a large number of pursuers.

  "Hey, you're a bear?" Zhan Daoda sat on the ground with a thud, rubbed his slightly bruised foot, then crossed his arms and raised his chin at An Ran in a very impolite manner.

  Kidding me, bumped into someone and still this attitude, not even an apology. If she wasn't quick on her feet, someone else would have been knocked flat! Hmph, thinking that just because Xia Zhi Gege and Xia Bu Leng graduated, he's the top of Qing Yang now?

  "Sorry." An Ran looked down at the little girl sitting on the ground. He knew her, Xia Zhi's shadow, the president of the student council. The whole school knew that she had announced that she would marry Xia Zhi, and he really didn't know where she got her confidence from - no looks, no talent, no family background... and probably not even good grades in physical education. This had once made her a laughing stock for the entire school when she first entered high school in her freshman year, of course, nobody dared to say it to her face unless they wanted to die.

  "Hey, not bad attitude. Zhan Zhan looked up at this supposedly arrogant guy with a slightly puzzled expression, pretty good talker, indeed knows how to seize the moment. "Hmm, alright, I'm in a good mood today, won't bother with you."

  An Ran's face flashed a hint of annoyance, the ball had bounced off the rim and out, it wasn't his intention to smash it: "You should also take some responsibility, right? First, you rode your bike onto the basketball court, second, you didn't even wear goggles." If he hadn't caught a glimpse from afar of her spaced-out expression with a silly grin on her face, how would he have had such a shaky shot?

  "That An Ran... the Big War just talks like that out of habit..." Wang Qi hastily tried to mediate, appearing to help explain for Da Zhan, but in reality wanting to protect An Ran - did he not know how Da Zhan got his nickname? He single-handedly swept through the entire sports department's male students! After countless rounds, he finally earned this nickname, mastering all eighteen martial arts."

  "Hey, should I consider myself unlucky to have run into a numbskull like you without checking the almanac before going out?" Zhan Daoda was originally planning to pat his butt and leave, after all, his body had been tempered through many tumbles, but this attitude was really not likable.

  "What did you say?" Just now he said he was a bear, and now he's calling him Blind Bear? When has he ever been treated like this?

  "Hey, you're not only blind but also deaf? Well, in that case, I shouldn't argue with you anymore. We should care for the disabled."

  Zhan Zhan crawled up, stood in front of An Ran with a smile, rummaged through his pocket, and pulled out a coin. He pried open An Ran's hand, placed the coin in his palm: "Look, Big Fatty! This classmate is great, a model of perseverance despite physical disability, we should learn from him. I'll write a proposal to broadcast on the school radio station right away. And, uh, Bear... An An, sorry about earlier, it was my fault for not being careful while riding my bike. Sorry! Do you want me to ride you back? I'm a good youth in society."

  What does she mean? An Ran had never met a girl like this before, and his good upbringing made him want to explode but couldn't, so angry that his hands were shaking. Is... is she scolding her for being disabled and treating her like a beggar? And, Xiong Anan?

  Digression

  It's so cold and quiet, is anyone there? Just a bubble... The enthusiasm of you girls is the driving force for typing with a fan!
