After visiting the Mecha Museum, Sheng Jiayu didn't seem as excited as when he first entered.
Fu Mingcheng asked him what was wrong, "Don't you like this gift?"

Sheng Jiayu was startled for a moment, but soon returned to her usual self, even with her eyes brighter than usual, "No, I like it very much."

After shopping, Fu Mingcheng booked a restaurant here.
The Fu family is considered to be well-known in the Allenville Star City, and the restaurant they booked is also very popular in the Star City. It would be difficult to make a reservation without booking in advance.

However, they arrived earlier than expected, so we need to wait a little longer.
Fu Mingcheng and Tang Zhi asked him to stay in the waiting area first, "Don't run around, let's go buy some drinks, his family only has delicious food."

Young masters should never pay the IQ tax.
It was a good idea to ask Sheng Jiayu to wait here, so that they wouldn't have to wait in line over there for too long and miss their turn.

The restaurant was on a busy commercial street, so Sheng Jiayu wandered around.
I didn't walk far because I was afraid of getting lost and I was also afraid that I wouldn't hear the waiter calling my number.

As March came to an end, there was still no noticeable change in the weather in the city of Allenville.
After a slight warming for half a day, another cold wave will follow.

Of course, they didn't wear school uniforms when they found an excuse to sneak out. Sheng Jiayu put on a thin cotton long coat on the outside, with the collar pulled high to cover a little bit of the chin. When she lowered her head, she could hide half of her face in the collar. With her hands in her pockets, she wandered aimlessly in front of the door.

It's cloudy today, with no rain or snow. The wind blowing in from the east coast is ruffling the ends of my hair that are hanging outside.

"Why are you here?" A cool voice sounded behind him, with the chill of a late spring cold and the warmth of concern.

Sheng Jiayu turned around and saw a tall man.

I compared the gap between the two of them, hmm... I've seen him before, who was he?

Lu Zhe looked at him with a confused look and a desperate look of recollection, "Don't you remember me?"

"Uh..." Sheng Jiayu was a little embarrassed. He couldn't say that I still remember that we had met before. This would be a qualitative leap for others.

But it's even more embarrassing to say this, because no one would think that this kind of priority is something to be proud of.
As long as he doesn't speak, the person on the other side will be embarrassed.

He could smell the strong smell of blood on the other party - it was not that he had actually killed anyone, but it was just an intuition of the herbivore towards the powerful beast, or an instinctive judgment.

The man in front of him was very fierce. He had seen him before, so he must be from the military academy... He should not be a classmate. He had no contact with people from the next class. So according to the process of elimination...

Before Lu Zhe was ready to speak, Sheng Jiayu said first: "Hello, senior!"

Lu Zhe, who was about to laugh at himself and say "It turns out I was just being sentimental", hesitated for a moment after hearing his words and swallowed back what he was about to say, "So you remember me."

"Sorry, senior, I'm a little face-blind..."

That doesn't quite seem like a little bit.
He had the same feeling the last time on the playground. When they looked into each other's eyes, the other person didn't recognize him at all.
I guess the “Hello, senior” I just said was a gamble to some extent.

"It's okay. Are you waiting for your number here? Do you need any help?" Lu Zhe knew this restaurant. It was very famous and expensive. Most importantly, it was very difficult to get in line. "The last time you gave me a return gift, you opened something very expensive. I can return the favor."

His imperial city!
He said that the one that came out of the box of chocolates must be the Imperial City!

Damn it, he was too embarrassed to ask for it.

I was thinking about the Imperial City, but I still had to put on a show. "It's okay. My friends have reserved a table. They just came a little early, so they went to buy some drinks."

But in the end, I couldn't control the sourness.

After all, he is still a young man of just eighteen years old. What he likes and dislikes are all shown on his face, and he doesn't have that many worries.

Lu Zhe originally intended to give the thing to him, but seeing that the little rabbit was so obsessed with it, he felt like teasing him a little.

Students from non-combat academies are not so strictly required to enter and leave the military academy, but even the noble children of Allenwell Star City would not be so idle as to come here to eat. "Is today an important day?"

But after asking, he felt a little regretful.
After all, the two of them had only met once and did not have much of a relationship. Wasn't it a bit abrupt to ask such a question?

"Hmm?" Sheng Jiayu thought about the Imperial City and answered without much concern, "It's my birthday, where's the senior?"

This surprised Lu Zhe a little. "Tomorrow is my grandfather's birthday party. My family is having a big party. I took a special leave to buy a gift for my grandfather."

This is a commercial street, and it’s the high-end kind, which is normal.
Sheng Jiayu didn't know what the family background of the senior in front of him was like. He had heard of Lu Zhe's name a few times, but he was not interested in these things and didn't remember it clearly.

From what he said, the person who could easily get a seat in this restaurant must be either rich or noble.
As expected... everyone starts from a different starting point.

Sheng Jiayu recalled some of the pain from his previous life, but he didn't come from a poor family, just a comfortable and well-off one. In this life, his family background could even be said to be wealthy, so it didn't matter too much.

"Then I wish Grandpa a happy birthday and a worry-free life."

"Happy birthday to you too," Lu Zhe replied.

He received a phone call, so he said something to Sheng Jiayu, and the two said goodbye. He answered the phone and walked away.

Sheng Jiayu didn't go to listen. When a waiter called him, he went in.

He had just taken two steps when Lu Zhe called him back, "Stretch out your hand."

Sheng Jiayu was a little confused, but still reached out his hand.
A mecha model fell into his palm.

Painted in silver, with heavy firepower cannons mounted on the shoulders and arms.
The mecha "Morning Star". This mecha is also quite popular, but because its performance is not as good as the Imperial City, it is not included in the joint models. It is a separate gashapon series released by the manufacturer and is also a hidden model. It is not easier to get than the Imperial City.

He looked at Lu Zhe, somewhat puzzled.

The latter smiled at him and said, "It's just a gift. My cousin asked me to go to the gashapon machine to spin it for him. It's a bit shabby, but I'll make it up to you when I have the chance."

“...Ah, no thanks, I like it very much, thank you.” Perhaps because he had just seen this mecha in the museum and heard its story, he did not ask for anything.

Lu Zhe was probably busy with something, and as the calls came in one after another, he waved goodbye.

The waiter was urging her, so Sheng Jiayu went upstairs with the waiter holding the "Morning Star".
As Lu Zhe walked away, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask for his communication account.

He looked back, but the boy had disappeared.
I had no choice but to continue walking with a sense of emptiness.

Anyway, there is a long way to go.

In the private room, Sheng Jiayu placed "Morning Star" on the table.
The glass tabletop reflects the shadow of the "Morning Star".

Fu Mingcheng and Tang Zhi pushed the door open and saw him staring at the little thing from a distance.

The monitor's facial muscles twitched and he asked, "Where did you come from?"

"I met my senior by chance. I heard that it was my birthday and he gave it to me." Sheng Jiayu fiddled with the "Morning Star" mecha.

The miniature figures are very delicately made, with movable joints. Pulling the Morning Star to make it fall sideways triggers the mechanism and switches the weapons depot.

Sheng Jiayu put it straight again.

"Luckily it's Morning Star, otherwise my surprise would be ruined." Fu Mingcheng said.

He promised Sheng Jiayu that he would get him to the imperial city before his birthday, so he would naturally not break his promise.

The one who went to buy drinks with Tang Zhi just now was Qi Zi, and the other one was that he had made an appointment with someone to meet there to pick up something.

I have been in school all the time, and even though I got some things, it is not convenient to trade them.
I paid a deposit in advance and made an appointment today to meet and pick up the goods.

Although this miniature figure is nominally a chocolate giveaway, its market price is not low because the entire series is exquisitely crafted.
The price is not inferior to that of a genuine 10:1 figure.

However, the miniature figures were a bit small after all, so Fu Mingcheng bought him a 10:1 regular figure before school started, which was just the right size to give to him as a gift.

The price of the two together is not low, so Tang Zhi also paid for one, which can be considered a gift for two people.

When Sheng Jiayu saw Huang Cheng, her eyes lit up. She hugged Fu Mingcheng and Tang Zhi tightly, not knowing how to thank them.

The three of them separated only after the waiter came to serve the food.

After having a delicious meal, Meimei went shopping in a few places in the afternoon and returned to school in the evening.

Sheng Jiayu hardly trained all day today. Fearing that his health would deteriorate, he finished his self-training according to the amount he normally did during class before the dormitory door was closed.

After her birthday, Sheng Jiayu became a legally recognized adult citizen.
Fu Mingcheng reminded him again that he must not get into conflict with others. With Jiang Hui gone, there might not be no Zhang Hui or Ma Hui left. "As long as you don't fight back, there will be no problem with our class's score!"

That being said, there are still many people who want to compete with Sheng Jiayu, and if one is rejected, there is always another.

The reason is simple. Ever since Jiang Hui admitted defeat to him in the last private competition, he has become like a different person and always comes to find him.
Look for it during normal training and also during independent training.

During the daytime class, he took the initiative to form a group with him, which led to him being laughed at by other students: "What's wrong, Brother Hui, are you eyeing our little rabbit and planning to lead him to win without any effort?"

Jiang Hui just became polite to him, and remained the same to others.
His ability would definitely rank him among the top five in the class. Most people wouldn't dare to mess with him and would just make jokes like the one above.

Jiang Hui would immediately retort: ​​"Get lost."
But he would turn around and comfort himself: "Don't pay attention to them, they have never seen how powerful you are."
"I don't care. There's nothing to worry about."

However, the voices of the two of them were neither too loud nor too soft, and they were accompanied by his two younger brothers, Fu Mingcheng, Tangzhi and Zeng Guang, so everyone could hear them, including those around him who were making fun of him.

It's nothing more than looking her up and down, followed by a sneer and a sarcastic remark: "She's just a little rabbit, that's why people like her."

But just a few days later, the mock exam came before the midterm.

It's just a small test within the class to test the level and then prepare for the joint training match in the middle of the term.

Because the students who had not awakened last semester had to take a make-up exam for theory courses on April 21st, and the mid-term joint training match was on April 30th, the class quiz was scheduled for April 10th, under the pretext of giving them ten days after the exam to review the theory courses and concentrate on making up for the weaknesses exposed in the quiz.

The time arrangement was relatively reasonable, but on the eve of the exam, he was still blocked at the door of the public water room in the dormitory building.
The man looked at him leisurely and said sarcastically, "You have been very arrogant recently. Let's see how long you can keep laughing tomorrow."

Sheng Jiayu, who was carrying a kettle, glanced at him and replied in confusion but with a smile: "Sorry, you may have recognized the wrong person. I need to go in and get some water."
