…

Shi Yao had toiled overnight the previous day, so after sending those three messages to Lin Jiage, she barely waited for his response before caving in to her exhaustion.

By the time she woke up the next day, it was already noon.

The room was very quiet. Just like her, He Tiantian and Jiang Yue also rose around the same timing.

In contrast to the three of them, Leng Nuan had woken up early and cleaned the dormitory room and left it spick and span. She also watered the green plants they were cultivating by the windowsill. A slight wind blew in from the opened windows, bringing the fragrance of the blossomed gardenias into the room.

There was only a single lesson for the entire day, and that was a physical education class at three-thirty in the afternoon.

After having their lunch, the four girls went back to their dormitory room and applied many layers of sunscreen before heading towards the school track in one group.

They arrived rather early, so there wasn’t anyone there. The group of four decided to find a sheltered and cool area to gather around and chat.

Not too long later, the other students of their classes began to arrive one after another.

However, several unfamiliar faces had gathered around the school track as well.

“That’s weird. Our class should be the only one using this time slot, so why is there another class here? Was their class transferred into this time slot too?” He Tiantian remarked as she looked at the huge crowd.

At three-thirty, a male teacher walked over and blew on his whistle, a gesture for everyone to gather. “Year 3 students from the Math Faculty, gather on my right. Year 1 students from the English Faculty, gather on my left.”

That’s not our P.E. teacher… The students from Shi Yao’s class complained amongst themselves, but they still chose to get in line obediently.

By the time the two classes were standing in line, the physical education teacher began speaking, “Year 1 students, Miss Wang is pregnant at the moment, so she won’t be able to take you this semester. So, I’ll be replacing her during this period of time. As I have too many classes to handle, I have no choice but to put you together with another class of mine.”

“Alright, let’s cut the talking and begin! I’ll start by taking attendance…” announced the physical education teacher. He raised up the name list in his hand and began calling out the names of the Year 1 students one by one.

“… Everyone is here, good.” After he was done marking the attendance of the Year 1 students, he turned his attention towards the Year 3 students.

By the time he marked the names of twenty students, there were already three students who were absent.

When the physical education teacher called out the twenty-first name, Shi Yao’s classmates couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

That name was truly unique—Xia Shangzhou.

“Xia Shangzhou! His parents should have named him Yuan Mingqing 1instead!” He Tiantian, who was lined up right behind Shi Yao, leaned forward and giggled into Shi Yao’s ears.

No one responded to the name. Thus, the physical education teacher moved on to the next name, “Lu Benlai!”

Another burst of laughter broke out within Shi Yao’s class.

This time, it was Jiang Yue, who stood beside He Tiantian, who spoke up, “Lu Benlai, his mother definitely didn’t think too hard for her own son’s name!”

Before the laughter could scatter, the physical education teacher wrote a cross beside Lu Benlai’s name—a sign of absence—before moving on to the next one, “Lin Jiage!”

The voices that were discussing those two interesting names suddenly went quiet.

No one responded to that name, so the physical education teacher repeated it once more, “Lin Jiage!”

Just as the physical education teacher was just about to draw a cross beside the name, a voice called out from behind, “Here.”

It was a very calm and refreshing voice, reminiscent of a cooling tea on a hot summer day, soothing and pleasant to the ear.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads around.

Dressed in white sportswear, Lin Jiage strolled over leisurely.

There were two other people walking right behind him. One was dressed in flamboyant yellow sportswear whereas the other one was dressed in a set of dark blue sportswear.
