Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 292 Live in the Moment
Haisan Island, Elementary School.

Shi Xia organized 102 children, the youngest of whom was still wearing open-crotch pants.

A group of children were divided into two groups, separated by strips of cloth.

Yellow Army and Blue Army.

Each side selected a captain, vice-captain, strategist, logistics officer, combat squad, and squad leader for each team.

All the choices are crude and simple: arm wrestling.

On the elementary school playground, two groups of people are arm wrestling, while the children on the sidelines cheer them on.

Cheng Qingmin shouted no softer than the child, his voice hoarse and his head covered in sweat.

Shi Xia was speechless.

Aren't you getting a holiday?

"unimportant!"

"come on!"

Cheng Qingmin didn't even turn his head, completely absorbed in the moment. Shi Xia shook her head as she watched: Sure enough, a man is a boy until the very end.

Which boy wouldn't want to join a large-scale battle?

And so, after the teams split up, both sides took their flags and returned to their respective territories.

Each side had its own territory and command post.

One hour was allotted for planning the battle. An hour later, as Shi Xia sounded the horn, the battle began.

Both sides attack each other, and whoever's flag is taken down first loses the game.

Shi Xia is the referee.

Each child has a fatal wound to the heart, neck, and head; one such wound can take down an opponent in one strike.

If the injury is to the hands or feet, a knot can be tied on a handkerchief as a count; after three knots, life ends.

Shi Xia, along with Little Eagle, Little Gold, and Big White as referees, led a well-organized aerial and mobile system.

And so the large-scale children's exercise began.

Cheng Qingmin, itching to get closer, moved closer.

What can I do?

What do you want to do?

Shi Xia asked, and Cheng Qingmin didn't know either, but just wanted to do something.

"You really are born to be a workaholic. We gave you a break, and you still came back."

Cheng Qingmin laughed helplessly.

"I don't want to either, but there's nothing to do when I go back!"

He simply sat there and watched the children run around.

The place where Shi Xia was located was the central square of the village, and there was a very tall ladder on the hill in the square, which was made to look like a watchtower.

It was originally intended to be a slide for children, but it was later made a little taller.

Sitting here, with a commanding view, you can see everything below.

The two sat there, and Teacher Qu joined them. It was mainly because Shi Xia was playing too much, and the parents were all eager to join in, especially the male parents.

Some even tried to bribe their children with snacks just to get a spot to participate, but unfortunately, they were all rejected.

"Boss Shi Xia said that anyone over 18 is prohibited from participating!"

The "fierce" battle continued, and the joyful childhood memories were deeply etched in our minds.

Teacher Qu was deeply moved by what she saw; peace is truly wonderful.

Children can laugh and play to their heart's content.

The three of them sat on the watchtower, watching and chatting. As they talked, they started talking about Cheng Qingmin's ex-fiancée, Li Yafang.

Are you still in contact?

"Not really, but Li Yafang wrote to me a few days ago."

Shi Xia and Teacher Qu exchanged glances, leaned closer, and she gave him a look that said, "Tell me more."

Cheng Qingmin remained silent, but he did not hide anything.

"She said she still likes me, wants to come back to me, isn't afraid of living a hard life with me, and says I'm the one she truly loves. That's about it."

Shi Xia raised an eyebrow.

"You believe it?" If Cheng Qingmin said he believed it, Shi Xia was already prepared to give him a "wake-up call."

“How could I believe that? She must be having a hard time back home, so I called back to ask her.”

Shi Xia gave him a look that said, "You're not so bad, kid. You didn't embarrass me." Teacher Qu also breathed a sigh of relief.

He quite admired Cheng Qingmin; the young man was kind-hearted and a good young man.

"Go on."

“I asked, and Li Yafang’s father did arrange a job for her after she went back, but it wasn’t given to her easily. He said she had to marry a man in his fifties.”

“Li Yafang was definitely unwilling, so she made a scene at home. She probably didn’t win the argument, and she secretly sent that letter, telling me to go back and pick her up.”

After hearing this, Shi Xia asked, "The letter said she liked you and asked you to pick her up, but it didn't mention the old man's matter."

Cheng Qingmin nodded.

Teacher Qu added insult to injury with a sneer.

"They treat you like someone who's always there to prepare the ingredients."

Cheng Qingmin naturally understood this and also felt that Li Yafang was not thinking straight.

"I don't know where she got the confidence to think that I absolutely can't live without her and that I'm not going back."

He likes it here!
I love the three islands!
"Principal Shi Xia, may I stay here indefinitely?"

"What do you mean?"

"I want to become a permanent resident of the three islands."

Cheng Qingmin had wanted to do this for a long time. He had no parents and the world was vast, so he could go anywhere, but the three islands in the sea gave him a different feeling.

"Well, you should talk to Uncle Cao about it. I think he'd be very willing."

It basically requires investigation.

After all, once he becomes a resident of the three islands, he will receive a share of the profits.

The relationship between those who have lived here for generations and those who suddenly arrived is naturally different.

Cheng Qingmin understood how united this place was, but he wasn't afraid. He believed that sincerity would eventually prevail.

The three continued chatting, and Aunt Qu brought them some snacks and melon seeds.

This kind of life is worth more than money!

The children's battle ended after two hours and thirteen minutes; the yellow flag was pulled down, and the children with the blue flag cheered and celebrated their victory.

Many of the yellow-clad children secretly shed tears, while others tried their best to hold them back.

Shi Xia stood up.

"Kids, are you upset about losing?"

"I know it's painful even if you don't say it. Who doesn't want to win?"

"I just want to win! I want to keep winning!"

"So when I lost, I was angry, I wanted to cry, but I was even more indignant. I wanted to find out why I lost and what I could do to win."

Shi Xia began her speech, and the children below were immediately drawn to her, with some raising their hands.

"Boss Shi Xia, can you lose too?"

"Of course, no one wins all the time, but remember, no one loses all the time!"

"As long as you want to change, as long as you think of a way, you will always find a way to win!"

"So, let's go back and analyze our experience, and then we'll have another round tomorrow!"

Shi Xia raised her fist and shouted, and the yellow-clad soldiers were full of vigor, determined to get back at him!
The blue team was even more excited. If we can win today, we can win tomorrow too!

The children dispersed after their competition, and Teacher Qu stood up.

"The children you train will be an extraordinary group of people when they leave the three islands."

Shi Xia smiled easily.

"Who knows? I just want them to have fun and enjoy themselves!"

"We'll talk about it later!"

She dislikes planning because plans can never keep up with changes.

She wanted to live a peaceful life in the modern world until she died, but then the apocalypse started. She was supposed to die early on because of her water-based superpower, but she managed to get through to the end. No one can predict tomorrow, so living in the present is the most carefree thing to do.
