During only one class period, Su Chen had completed his understanding of the whole Advanced Mathematics textbook.

He enjoyed it.

Professor Zhang announced that the class was over. Li Yan stood up quickly and was the first to leave the classroom.

He couldn’t eat a book, of course. The strange looks from the other students triggered his anxiety.

Professor Zhang glared at Su Chen, who wanted to sneak away. “Su Chen, don’t leave. I want to talk with you.”

“Haha!” gloated Pan Xiaojie and Guo Lei.

Zheng Bin’s eyes shone with envy. Although hardworking and studious, he didn’t have enough talent for Professor Zhang to notice him.

Su Chen walked toward Professor Zhang with his head down.

The girls giggled and chattered as they left the classroom. Soon, it was only Su Chen and Professor Zhang left in the classroom.

Professor Zhang spoke eloquently, urging Su Chen to change his mind and transfer to the Mathematics Department.

Su Chen did not agree, even after they talked for an hour. He had no interest in studying mathematics.

“Never mind. If you think of changing, feel free to come and see me anytime.” Professor Zhang was depressed, exasperated that Su Chen wouldn’t listen to his advice.

How many people had sharpened their minds to be his apprentice? He used all his words to persuade Su Chen. The boy was not interested in signing on, and it frustrated him.

“Thanks for appreciating me, professor.”

Su Chen bowed slightly to thank him and then fled.

Professor Zhang, sighing and shaking his head, watched him leave.

***

The freshmen were in their military training. Juniors with military uniforms were in every corner of the campus. They were suffering under the scorching sun.

Su Chen felt bad for them.

Thinking back, the military training that lasted for more than half a month gave him a tough time as an energy-saving socialite. He almost turned from a fair, chubby, good-looking young man into a dark-skinned athletic type.

“Iʼll go and see her.”

Lin Yumeng’s lovely smile emerged in Su Chenʼs mind. The edge of his lips curled up a little.

There were reasons the ancients said one day apart seemed like three years.

They had just confirmed their relationship status and were in the hot stages of their love affair. He hadn’t seen her for half a day, and he missed her.

He went to the supermarket to buy a few bottles of water then went to find the phalanx Lin Yumeng was in.

But they were all wearing the same uniform. It was hard to pick her out of the crowd.

Twenty minutes later, Su Chen finally found them in the field. Lin Yumeng and Qian Manman stood together. The class phalanx was doing march-front-and-turn-to-the-side training.

At the front of the phalanx was a young instructor who looked no older than they were. He shouted the commands with a stern face and both his hands behind his back.

Su Chen sat down on the steps and watched them train with a happy smile.

Qian Manman noticed Su Chen, who was sitting on the staircase. She quietly elbowed Lin Yumeng as she said in a low voice, “Mengmeng, look. Your boyfriend is here.”

Lin Yumeng was surprised when she heard this. She glanced in the direction of Su Chen. Her pretty face suddenly blushed, and her heart was disturbed. She turned in the wrong direction accidentally and quickly adjusted back to her position.

Su Chen was amused by her lovely appearance.

Lin Yumeng blushed again when she saw him smiling with the corner of her eyes. Again, she made a mistake.

“That girl over there, what’s the matter with you? Step out of line,” scolded the young instructor sternly as he pointed at Lin Yumeng.

Lin Yumeng’s small face turned pale as she stepped out of the line uneasily.

“After all this training, you made a wrong turn again. I’m going to give you instructions now. Listen.”

The strict instructor shouted the instructions. “Stand at attention, at ease, turn right, turn back…”

Lin Yumeng was already confused. Her heart was even more panicked when she had to train alone in front of her classmates, and she continued to make mistakes.

“What’s the matter with you? Can you do it? Run five laps to calm yourself down,” said the exasperated instructor.

Su Chen, who was sitting on the steps, frowned. A circle of track and field is 400 meters, and five laps would be 2,000 meters. Lin Yumeng would not be able to bear this in the hot weather.

He regretted showing up and disturbing her.

“Instructor, this is my fault. I will run!” shouted Su Chen as he raised his hand.

Everyone heard his voice and turned around to look at Su Chen.

Meng Lu, who was in the line, was a little surprised when she saw Su Chen. Her eyes narrowed.

“Who are you?” shouted the instructor, frowning.

“I am her boyfriend. She lost her concentration for a while because she saw me just now. That is why she kept making mistakes. Punish me if you want to,” said Su Chen while walking over.

They were all shocked except Qian Manman and the two who knew about this.

The boys were envious, jealous, and hateful!

Lin Yumeng was innocent and cute with a good figure. Many boys in their class were watching her but couldn’t catch her eye.

That son of a b*tch moved in on her too fast!

The girls were also envious. They expected a perfect school romance once they entered the university.

Su Chen’s appearance and temperament were impeccable. He even bought water for his girlfriend in such hot weather. Who would not want such a boyfriend?

Lin Yumeng’s pretty face blushed when she noticed her classmates’ eyes. She felt shy and happy at the same time.

The young instructor was as jealous as the students. He too was single.

Showing love in front of him! It was unbearable.

“You want to run for her? Okay, double the laps. Ten laps,” said the young instructor sternly.

“No problem.”

Su Chen grinned and blinked at Lin Yumeng. He then lifted his feet and started running.

Ten laps were only four kilometers, which was a piece of cake for him. He was used to running 10,000 meters per day.

The young instructor was startled. He did not expect Su Chen would agree so readily. He had made his decision, however, so he said to Lin Yumeng helplessly, “Get in line. Don’t make any more mistakes.”

“Okay,” Lin Yumeng answered. She blushed and went back in line, aware of everyone’s strange looks.

“That’s nice!” jested Qian Manman with envy.

“Stop that now,” groaned Lin Yumeng. She did not want to make any more mistakes.

It was only four kilometers. It was not worth it for Su Chen to put his fast pace on; he would need 12 hours to cool down. It would be better for him to save it for a rainy day if it was nothing urgent.

He ran very fast, and his speed only went up.

“Rest in your positions,” announced the young instructor.

The students breathed a sigh of relief. Many of them sat down despite the hot ground. Some ran to the side to get water.

“Hey! Hey, Mengmeng, your boyfriend is handsome. Is he one of our seniors?” asked the girls in a gossipy manner.

Lin Yumeng blushed and nodded.

“He runs very fast. He seems to be very strong.”

“This is nice; give me a dozen such boyfriends. No, give me a whole bunch of them.”

“Silly girl, could you bear it if you had a whole bunch of them?”

“Haha…”

A few very open-minded girls laughed and joked.

“This fella. He is something,” the young instructor murmured in surprise. This expert could judge Su Chen’s ability because running was a part of his daily training, and he could see how talented he was.
