Chapter 322: Chapter 322 Officially Starting the New School Year
(Chapter Eight)

Luo Ziling’s injuries were actually quite serious, but he applied a generous amount of medicinal powder and, combined with his robust physique and proper wound care, he slept well throughout the night. By the next day, he was feeling rather spirited upon waking up.

When Luo Ziling had gone to sleep, the other three guys hadn’t returned, but they were the ones who woke him up the next day with their noise.

Due to the impact of his injuries and fatigue, Luo Ziling slept very heavily. Despite the other three guys being so noisy when they came back, they didn’t manage to wake him up.

When he opened his eyes, it was already half-past seven. He immediately struggled to get out of bed, hurriedly washed up, had breakfast with the other three guys in the canteen, and then rushed off to class.

“Boss, what happened to you yesterday? You went to bed so early, we couldn’t even wake you,” Cao Jianhui asked Luo Ziling with a giggle as they headed to the classroom, “Did you overexert yourself during the day?”

While speaking, he reached out to pat Luo Ziling on the shoulder.

Cao Jianhui’s pat landed not far from the wound. Fortunately, Luo Ziling reacted quickly and dodged, otherwise, it would have been troublesome.

“I was indeed quite tired yesterday, so I went to sleep early,” Luo Ziling didn’t elaborate much and instead inquired about that day’s class schedule, “Where are we having class today?”

He had never set foot in a classroom before; this would be his first time, so he was naturally curious.

“The first class today should be a moral education lesson taught by Counselor He Yongping, I guess. She’ll talk about our plans for the new semester, preparations for the upcoming welcome party, and arrangements for the autumn sports festival – emphasizing the importance of diligent study and progress every day. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you don’t listen, but if you want to take part in the welcome party or sports festival, you should pay attention. Boss, you’re definitely joining the sports festival, so you need to listen carefully. And with your good looks, you have to prepare a performance for the welcome party no matter what.” As he said this, Cao Jianhui assumed the air of a class leader, “Miss He already asked me to start organizing the welcome party. Our class needs to present three programs for selection, and at least one has to be approved. Boss, you should plan something and aim for a chance to show your face during the welcome party.”

“Why should I be the one to show my face?” Luo Ziling quickly objected, “I’m not good at anything, you guys can go. As for the sports festival, that’s a possibility – I could sign up for multiple events.”

“Boss, you don’t understand,” Cao Jianhui said with a mysterious look, “If you appear at the welcome party, all the beauties in school will know you. With an impressive talent performance plus your handsome face, you’re guaranteed to top the school’s heartthrob rankings. Then, a queue of beauties and the prettiest girls in school will be crying and rushing to throw themselves into your arms. How could you miss such an opportunity?”

“Exactly, exactly,” Wu Longjiang immediately chimed in, “if that happens, you’ll undoubtedly become the most famous heartthrob in school. If you perform just as impressively at the sports festival, all the beauties will take the initiative to approach you. Then every day in our dorm, we’ll be surrounded by beauties, heh heh, don’t you think that would be our dorm’s most glorious achievement? We’ll be famous across campus!”

“With so many beauties crying and screaming to jump into your arms, you’ll be blissful during your five years in university. Having dated the most beautiful girl on campus and having fun with other beauties, what regrets could you possibly have left in life?” Li Fuming also added lewdly to the conversation.

“Boss, while you’re enjoying yourself, you could take care of us a bit too. With so many beauties coming to you, they’ll also glance at us along the way. If they look our way enough, maybe sparks will fly.” Wu Longjiang continued in a lecherous tone, “You’ll be happy, and you could also spread some joy to us!”

“Yep, think of it as securing benefits for us,” Cao Jianhui also added, “So you definitely need to prepare a performance and show your face to the entire school, letting everyone know about this handsome guy here. You’re bringing honor to our class and pride to the other three good-looking guys in our dorm; it’s a collective honor. You must accept this glorious mission.”

“Screw off!” Luo Ziling was both amused and annoyed by their chatter, and gave each of them a kick in the butt before striding away.

The three guys, undeterred, patted their butts and chased after him, continuing to persuade Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling ignored them, and the other guys didn’t mind.

The first class, indeed, was hosted by Counselor He Yongping. After discussing the semester’s academic plan, she announced various other matters, including the official election of class committee members, the preparation for the welcome party, the selection of athletes for the sports festival, and recruitment for various groups, among other issues.

Counselor He Yongping tasked the temporary class monitor, Cao Jianhui, with the preparations for the welcome party and the selection of participants for the sports day events.

In front of the whole class, Cao Jianhui accepted the task and, patting his chest, promised to personally oversee the preparation of several outstanding programs to submit for consideration, aiming to have multiple entries selected for the welcome party. He also promised to carefully choose the participants for the sports day, assuring everyone that the selected individuals would achieve good results.

While making these guarantees, he even winked at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling pretended not to see it.

Counselor He Yongping’s classes were always quite witty and humorous, which made most of the students grow fond of them.

The following class was on Marxism-Leninism, still taught by Counselor He Yongping.

Impressively, he made a subject that gave most people a headache both entertaining and exciting, managing to keep everyone awake without a single person dozing off.

However, Luo Ziling was distracted; during class, he was secretly exchanging messages and chatting with Yang Qingyin.

Yang Qingyin sent several messages, inquiring about his health and whether he was attending classes or not.

Luo Ziling also updated Yang Qingyin about his situation, saying he was in class and that his body had recovered quite well, and, all in all, it was not interfering with his lessons anymore.

Of course, Yang Qingyin wasn’t reassured and asked Luo Ziling to come to Ye Xiaoli’s place at noon; she wanted to check his wound and mentioned that Ye Xiaoli would prepare lunch.

Favored by a beauty, Luo Ziling would of course not refuse and happily agreed.

After class at noon, Luo Ziling declined the invitation to have lunch with Cao Jianhui and the others, and hurried to Ye Xiaoli’s room instead.

Yang Qingyin was already there, and as soon as she saw Luo Ziling, she ordered him to take off his clothes so she could examine his wound.

“Senior Sister, you’ve turned into a female pervert, demanding that I take off my clothes the moment you see me,” Luo Ziling joked with a laugh.

The joke made Yang Qingyin blush, but she didn’t get angry. Instead, she seriously checked his wounds and found that they had healed much better than she had expected, which relieved her.

When Ye Xiaoli got back, she also shared the results of the police investigation with Luo Ziling.

The two culprits had been hired by someone else, but it was unknown as to who had hired them; therefore, it was still uncertain whether the mastermind behind the case could be found. As Luo Ziling had heard about this possibility from Ye Xiaoli the night before, he was not too surprised.

“Junior Brother, I think the most likely culprits are from our Yang Family or the Ling Family. I feel that the Ling Family is more likely. When you talk to your mom about this, remind her to be cautious.”

Yang Qingyin’s caution surprised Luo Ziling.
