I'm pretending to be a fairy in kindergarten

Chapter 386 Atmosphere
Shen Xia laughed upon hearing this: "Now that you mention it, I'm even more convinced that you're love-struck."

Jiang Qian doesn't care about other people's opinions; as long as she feels that what she's doing is worthwhile, that's enough.

After changing her clothes, Shen Xia crossed her arms and scrutinized Jiang Qian for what seemed like the umpteenth time.

Unexpectedly, he even apologized: "I'm sorry I made things difficult for you a bit these past few days, but I originally just wanted to discourage you. Who would have thought you would be so capable? I really admire you."

Jiang Qian also changed into her usual clothes, looked back at Shen Xia, and didn't care about the hardships she had endured during this period:
"Since you say I won, when are you going to give me the chairman's seat?"

Shen Xia looked at Jiang Qian's hands, which appeared slightly injured from labor, and said frankly:

"Tomorrow, I'll gather the student council members and tell them that I'm temporarily handing over the presidency to you. I've seen that you've gotten to know them all by now, so I don't think anyone will be surprised. Besides, quite a few boys in the student council seem to like you. I heard that someone is even planning to confess to you."

Jiang Qian replied matter-of-factly, "Really?"

Shen Xia grinned, her smile forced. "Let me ask you something. Do you think that boy you like is capable of being the student council president of our school? Didn't you say you planned to promote him next year? In other words, how does he compare to you?"

Jiang Qian spoke frankly and sincerely: "He's much stronger than me. I'm probably less than half as strong as him, no, a third, no, maybe a quarter, no."

Shen Xia, embarrassed, raised her hand to interrupt:
"Alright, alright, it's true you're love-struck! I guess I can't ask you about this kind of thing; I'll have to observe it myself. But then again, I am the current president, so I have to keep an eye on the future student council leader."
I have to tell you, the student union is essentially supposed to serve the students, you understand what I mean? Whether it's you or the boy you like, if either of you gets the student union members to do bad things, I'll come back to China and settle the score with you.

She said seriously, "Although my background is not as strong as yours, it's about the same. The main thing is that I have developed feelings for the student council over the past few years, so I don't like anyone causing trouble for me."

Jiang Qian hummed in agreement.

Shen Xia and Jiang Qian looked at each other for a long time before finally nodding in satisfaction.

And before leaving, she told Jiang Qian a secret:
"In the past few days, a new teacher named Jiang at our school spoke with me privately, asking if I would give up my position if someone wanted to replace me this year."
I told her no, I would only hand over the position to someone truly capable of being president. It was a little clever of me, but I hope you won't let me down and will manage the student council well after I leave.

Jiang Qian thought to herself that her sister had indeed come.

"Don't worry, I've told you several times."

Shen Xia winked mischievously and asked, "One last question, isn't that Teacher Jiang your sister? You two really look alike, and judging from the questions she asked me, the boy you like... could it be that your sister likes him too? Otherwise, her wariness is a bit strange."

Jiang Qian paused for a moment but did not answer directly. Shen Xia, however, was a smart woman. She chuckled, waved, and left.

"You two sisters are really interesting. It's nice to have met you as a friend. Goodbye."

This is all that Jiang Qian has done in the past month or so.

Now, more than a month has passed, and Shen Xia, an outsider, is observing Jiang Qian and the boy she likes competing in the crowd.

I heard Fang Meng declare Lin Zhengran the victor in the intellectual battle once again.

Shen Xia was surprised by the boy's strength. She knew very well how strong Jiang Qian was in all aspects during the past month. She had even sparred with Jiang Qian a few times in private, but lost every time.

But even now, Jiang Qian, who is terrifying to her, still can't beat this boy.

"Jiang Qian has great taste. She's so amazing that even I'm impressed."

Her phone rang; it was a call from her family, telling her to leave school immediately.

After answering the phone call, Shen Xia shouted at the top of her lungs in the crowd, "Chairman Jiang, keep it up!" and then quietly left.

Disappeared in the noisy crowd.

However, Jiang Qian, Jiang Jingshi, and others in the competition area still heard that somewhat familiar voice.

Jiang Qian, in particular, turned her head slightly to look at the figure that had already disappeared.

She knew who had called out, but silently replied "Goodbye" without showing any expression on her face, continuing her competition with Lin Zhengran. The next two matches were physical fitness and art, respectively.

Jiang Qian lost every single time by a narrow margin. To the audience, it seemed like Chairman Jiang could defeat Lin Zhengran every time, but each time she was just one step away from truly defeating him.

The last match was music.

Music is Jiang Qian's forte, but this time she did not choose to play the piano.

Instead, they wanted to sing in the air.

As stated at the start of the match, Jiang Qian knew that she probably couldn't defeat Lin Zhengran even if she tried her best.

So after seriously competing in the first four rounds, she didn't plan to compete in the last one.

Instead, they intended to express their feelings and end things in the simplest way possible.

Fang Meng had the two contestants draw lots, and Jiang Qian was the first one to draw.

She picked up the microphone and sat by the lotus pond.

The second young lady's figure was beautiful; the breeze made her long hair dance, her eyelashes tremble, and even the ripples on the lake surface spread out.

As her skirt swayed, her long, slender legs were beautiful and alluring, and her cool eyes remained fixed on Lin Zhengran.

Before she even spoke, the students watching were all amazed by Chairman Jiang's appearance and aura, which were very different from ordinary girls.

Jiang Qian opened her mouth in a cold voice, but her singing was not as professional as Jiang Xueli's.

But that unique and melodious voice still moved those around her, and the emotional tone of her voice resonated with them even more.

Jiang Xueli felt that the way she sang this song was particularly unique in its emotional expression.

The students watching widened their eyes in disbelief.

They occasionally made eye contact, and occasionally spoke in hushed tones.

This time, everyone seems to have a bit of an understanding.

"Hey, is Chairman Chiang singing a love song? It sounds so good! But I've never heard it before."

"I haven't heard of him either, but judging from this... does Chairman Chiang like this boy named Lin Zhengran?"

"I sensed it too. It wasn't obvious during the competition, but now that he's spoken, I can tell that Chairman Jiang seems to have a different kind of feeling towards this Lin Clan leader."

One of the freshmen in the crowd chimed in, "Didn't you guys know? Back during military training, this Chairman Jiang gave Lin Zhengran water."

"Huh? I was wondering! But isn't the rumor at school that Lin Zhengran, the leader of the Lin Clan, is a womanizer?"

"That's why Chairman Jiang didn't confess his feelings, but instead expressed his emotions in this way, showing his affection while indicating that he had no other thoughts. He was trying to awaken the true goodness and beauty in the heart of the Lin Clan leader through his singing. It was truly touching."

"So this is what a tragic love story looks like. These two have known each other for a long time, so there must be a rather dramatic love entanglement between them."

The three little ones in the audience area and Jiang Jingshi listened to the discussions.

Jiang Xueli realized something was seriously wrong: "Hey! I feel like the atmosphere around us is a bit off?! Don't you guys think so?"
