Chapter 96: Xiaolu Squad Leader
In fact, Su Xiaoqiang didn't have too many health problems. It was just because he stayed up late to study for the past two days, and his relatives came early for some unknown reason. In addition, the military training was quite tiring, so he felt a little exhausted due to excessive fatigue.

The reason why she didn't ask for leave right away was because there were too many girls who used this as an excuse to take a break today. And when her relatives came over in the past, her menstrual cramps weren't that severe, so she thought she could just endure it and it would pass.

What I didn’t expect was that the reaction this time would be so serious.

I had originally planned to ask for leave and rest under the shade of the tree after the instructor and Lu Mingfei came back.

Unexpectedly, before the instructor came back, my stomach suddenly started to hurt, I lost my balance and fell to the ground.

Then, Lu Mingfei carried her to the infirmary like a princess in front of everyone.

The more Su Xiaoqiang thought about it, the more he felt like a social failure.

The most important thing is that Lu Mingfei carried himself to the infirmary in front of Liu Miaomiao, whom he considered to be his friend.

And Liu Miaomiao likes Lu Mingfei.

Ahhh, that’s why I hate boys who have no sense of boundaries!

Su Xiaoqiang, feeling mixed emotions, covered his face with a quilt and thought that he might as well skip the military training for the next few days.

……

But in fact, there were not so many minor incidents during the military training. Except for the instructor who fainted due to heatstroke on the first day and Su Xiaoqiang who collapsed and was sent to the infirmary on the second day, there were no special incidents in the following days.

After the incident with Su Xiaoqiang, Instructor Li, who was also in charge of Lu Mingfei's class, became much more relaxed. Basically, as long as the female students looked like they were really feeling unwell, he would allow them to go to the side and rest for a while.

Because of these two things, Lu Mingfei became a celebrity during the military training at Shilan Middle School.

How big is the impact of these two things?

Let’s put it this way, even when Lu Mingfei scored an incredible ten-ring goal in every shot during shooting training, no one paid any attention to it.

What everyone talked about most was the first day when Lu Mingfei made the instructor faint during training, and the second day when Lu Mingfei carried the school beauty Su Xiaoqiang to the infirmary.

Handsome boys and beautiful girls are the most popular couples among girls, especially in the era when Taiwanese domineering CEO dramas were popular and entertainment life was not rich. The only thing that could add color to the boring high school life was the coaxing of a couple in the class.

During military training, it felt like every day was very long and every day was torture, but when you counted it carefully, seven days was just a blink of an eye.

Su Xiaoqiang returned to the team the day before the military training performance. On the day of the performance, the formation of Class 2 () even won a second prize.

As the bus carrying the military training instructors roared away, the military training of the 2006 class of Shilan Middle School was officially declared over.

In fact, the instructor’s departure is actually a more sad thing.

However, the freshmen of Shilan Middle School did not have a chance to feel sad about the departure of their instructors, because they immediately had to rush to the battlefield - the entrance examination three days later.

September 9th, the first day of classes.

In the last few days of the military training, Su Xiaoqiang did not attend the training because he was not feeling well. He stayed in the infirmary to rest. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as he had more time to review his junior high school textbooks.

She had a good foundation and was smart. In just a few days, she caught up with the knowledge she had missed during the summer vacation and even had some spare time to prepare for high school courses.

Lu Mingfei has also been staying up late these days. After moving out of his uncle and aunt's house and living alone, he always plays computer games too much without realizing it.

The little girl was full of confidence for the upcoming entrance exam. She was a little nervous and couldn't sleep in the past two days, but she has been getting more and more calm these days.

This sense of security comes from her confidence in her review progress. Now, she is confident that she can compete with little Lu Mingfei, let alone the legend Chu Zihang from Shilan Middle School, if he comes to take the entrance examination with her.

However, when Su Xiaoqiang came to the classroom and saw Lu Mingfei with dark circles under his eyes and yawning violently while sitting in his seat, her confident mood suddenly began to waver.

Does this guy really want to surpass me in the entrance exam...?
The little angel, whose Taoism heart had shown a glimmer of cracks, suddenly became a little hesitant, wondering whether she should study as hard as before in the next few days, or give Lu Mingfei a little space.

But she was immediately frightened by her own idea. Even if he really wanted to surpass her, he had to show his true strength. What was the point of letting him win? Of course, what surprised her even more was why she had the idea of ​​letting Lu Mingfei win.

So the little angel who had just sat down in her seat, before her butt even got warm, had already taken out the test paper from her schoolbag and started doing it.

Some girls around saw Su Xiaoqiang's hard work and started talking in low voices:

"Su Xiaoqiang works really hard."

"Yes, I remember she was one of the top three in the school. It's really rare for someone so pretty and hardworking."

"And don't you think she's pretty cool sometimes? She looked so heroic when she was arranging the formation during military training..."

Unknowingly, Su Xiaoqiang's situation had improved greatly.

And how could they know that the reason Su Xiaoqiang worked so hard was just because of a drunken joke.

……

Of course, Lu Mingfei also noticed how hard Su Xiaoqiang was studying, but he didn't take it to heart for the moment. He had more important things to do now.

Because of his “heroic deeds” during military training and his willingness to respond to his classmates’ requests, Lu Mingfei has been called upon to become class monitor, especially among the girls.

Lu Mingfei obviously didn't want to be the class monitor, but now, from the public opinion of his classmates to the trust of his teachers, there was a trend that "Lu Mingfei had to be the class monitor."

Lu Mingfei now had a feeling as if he was sitting on the dragon throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and a group of people came up to him at the steps holding dragon robes and put them on him. He could only put on the robes reluctantly, and sighed sadly, "My dear ministers, you have really made me suffer."

Life is so fucked up sometimes, there are some things you want very much, but you can never get them. And there are some things you don't want, but they are always forced on you.

In fact, in terms of the ability to be a class monitor, Su Xiaoqiang is more suitable than Lu Mingfei.

In his previous life, when Lu Mingfei was still studying at Kassel College, he heard that Su Xiaoqiang dropped out of college halfway through, returned to his family business to take over his father's position, and handled the company's affairs very skillfully.

The fame of the 20-year-old female CEO spread throughout the Shilan Middle School Alumni Association. Young and talented people who wanted to go on a blind date with Su Xiaoqiang lined up from Shilan Middle School to the CBD Center, and the blind date list was even longer than Hada.

However, because Su Xiaoqiang was written off for the season a few days after military training, he did not have as much mass base as Lu Mingfei, and Lu Mingfei's record of defeating the instructor was too famous, so Lu Mingfei was forced to be promoted from acting squad leader to squad leader.

Originally, the head teacher wanted to arrange a position of deputy monitor for Su Xiaoqiang, but Su Xiaoqiang's eyes blocked the head teacher Lao Wang's words of consolation.

It’s not that he was really scared by Su Xiaoqiang, but he was afraid of Su Xiaoqiang’s family background.

After Su Xiaoqiang was sent to the infirmary by Lu Mingfei on the second day of military training, Su Xiaoqiang's family came that afternoon, which put a lot of pressure on the school. It was also at that time that the class teacher, Lao Wang, learned about Su Xiaoqiang's family background.

On the first day of class, not much will be covered. The main purpose is to give the teacher and classmates a general understanding.

At lunch time, Lu Mingfei went to the cafeteria with Liu Miaomiao as if it was already a convention, but Su Xiaoqiang still didn't come along. Along the way, they met some female classmates from Class 1 of Senior High School, and they all jokingly called Lu Mingfei "Class Monitor".

What made Lu Mingfei a little depressed was that even Liu Miaomiao no longer called him Mingfei, but instead jokingly called him "Squad Leader Xiao Lu~"

"Why are you joining them in the fun?"

In the cafeteria, Lu Mingfei, who was sitting opposite Liu Miaomiao, curled his lips.

"What does it matter~" Liu Miaomiao stuck out her tongue mischievously, "Isn't the title of Xiaolu squad leader quite good?"

"Then you should just call me squad leader Xiaolu from now on, and don't call me Mingfei anymore."

Lu Mingfei knew how to control Liu Miaomiao, and deliberately put on an angry look on his face.

This trick really worked. Liu Miaomiao immediately became a little flustered. She lowered her head and looked at the boy opposite her from bottom to top:
"I was just joking. Ming Fei, if you don't like it, I won't call you squad leader Xiao Lu anymore. I'll still call you Ming Fei..."

His eyes were filled with aggrieved expression, as if he knew he was wrong.

Lu Mingfei actually just wanted to tease Liu Miaomiao, but he didn't expect Liu Miaomiao to panic all of a sudden. He immediately reached out and touched Liu Miaomiao's head and said:

"I was actually just kidding you, you can call me whatever you want."

After hearing what Lu Mingfei said, Liu Miaomiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said coquettishly:
"You scared me to death, I thought you were really angry..."

Unconsciously, the interaction between the two became more natural, and their tone and behavior became more intimate.

"Actually, I prefer the name Mingfei." Liu Miaomiao suddenly said.

"Why?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Because Mingfei sounds more intimate. Although calling him squad leader Xiaolu sounds cute, it still feels a little strange."

Liu Miaomiao paused, then suddenly lowered her head and buried her face, then continued: "Besides, everyone can call you squad leader, but I am the only one who calls you Mingfei..."

Although she had hidden her pretty face in advance, her red ears still revealed the girl's current poetic mood.

Seeing Liu Miaomiao's cute reaction, Lu Mingfei wanted to tease her again:

"Then if there's another person who calls me Ming Fei, then you won't be the only one, right?"

Liu Miaomiao raised her head suddenly, bit her lip and frowned, baring her teeth and claws like a roaring little dragon: "You, who else do you want to call you Mingfei!"

“For example, my parents always call me Mingfei.” Lu Mingfei thought of the letters his parents wrote to him.

"Of course you can call them uncle or aunt."

"And my uncle and aunt also call me Mingfei."

"Well... if it's your elders or relatives, it's fine to call you Ming Fei, but if it's other people calling you that..."

Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes and brought up the little goddess to tease Liu Miaomiao: "Then if Su Xiaoqiang wants to call me Mingfei one day, will you allow her to do so?"

This question seemed to really hit Liu Miaomiao. She sat there blankly, thinking for a long time before she reluctantly said:
"Gum... If it's Mastiff... that's fine too. After all, Mastiff is a good friend of ours."

If Lu Mingfei had asked this question before, Liu Miaomiao would definitely agree without hesitation.

But during the military training, after witnessing Lu Mingfei carrying Su Xiaoqiang to the infirmary in her arms like a princess, Liu Miaomiao suddenly felt a sense of crisis for some reason.

In fact, Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang didn’t have any very intimate interactions in normal times, but Liu Miaomiao was a little uneasy.

"Oh, it's so annoying! It's your problem whether you allow others to call you Ming Fei or not. Why do you have to ask me if I agree or not? I am not your relative!"

Liu Miaomiao suddenly stood up with her plate in hand and said angrily, "I'm full. I'm going back to the classroom for a nap. You can continue eating here!"

Then he went away with a clatter.

Lu Mingfei looked at Liu Miaomiao's departing back and wondered if this little girl could also be tsundere.

……

However, Liu Miaomiao's arrogance and Su Xiaoqiang's gentleness will both pass in the blink of an eye.

By the afternoon, Liu Miaomiao's anger seemed to have completely disappeared, and she was as clear-headed and calm as usual.

For example, after the second class in the afternoon, Liu Miaomiao came to Lu Mingfei's desk and asked Lu Mingfei which clubs he wanted to join.

Lu Mingfei was stunned: "School club..."

As a high-end private middle school, Shilan Middle School has quite a rich variety of club activities.

Not only do they have school celebrations every year, which are what Japanese comics call school festivals, but they also give many art clubs plenty of opportunities to perform at various parties such as Christmas parties.

Sports clubs can even participate in sports competitions at the provincial level. For example, last year, the basketball team of Shilan Middle School, led by the smart center Chu Zihang, won first place in the provincial high school league.

After all, it is an aristocratic school, so students have less pressure to continue their studies, and their extracurricular life will naturally be much richer.

However, although it is said that Shilan Middle School has a lot of clubs, when it comes to Lu Mingfei's impression of Shilan Middle School's club activities, it is just "a glimpse".

In the activity room of the literature club, Chen Wenwen sat on a chair by the window, holding a copy of Duras's "The Lover" or Zweig's "Letter from an Unknown Woman".

There are white curtains on both sides of the window. When the wind blows in, the curtains are blown up, and even Chen Wenwen's hair on her forehead is lifted up by the wind. The floating curtains rise and fall, half covering Chen Wenwen's face.

Lu Mingfei was sitting in a corner of the activity room, watching her secretly.

It's just like in Shunji Iwai's "Love Letter", where the female Fujii Itsuki peeks at the male Fujii Itsuki reading a book by the window.

Of course, the coincidence and bond between Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen are not as deep as those between the two Fujii Trees.

"Love Letter" tells a story of secret love turned into poetry, and the plot between Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen is just a prologue before a grand story is about to begin.
