No one understands rebirth better than me

Chapter 221 Another New Version of Gu Wancheng

Six o'clock in the morning.

Even before many students arrived at school, the school playground was already being tested with broadcasting and other equipment.

7am.

Students and teachers gradually entered the playground and began preparations.

8am.

"Why aren't you coming down yet?"

"I see that everyone next door has gone downstairs."

The Athletes' March had been playing for almost an hour, and the students in Class 7 of Grade 11 were already getting restless.

Even those students who previously found the sports meet troublesome and showed no interest in it were now glancing down from time to time.

After all, no matter what, participating or watching is more fun than going to class.

"The amount of time you waste now will be extended by the same amount later."

On the podium, Gu Wancheng spoke coldly.

The row of heads by the window then shrank back in.

"Guan Ren, why are you scratching yourself? Are you itchy?"

"Teacher Gu, I...uh...it really is itchy."

Guan Ren felt itchy because it was a hot day, and he was wearing a brand new knee brace, which made the flesh inside his knee very itchy.

Gu Wancheng looked him over again, noticing his strong muscles peeking out from his shorts and tank top, and couldn't help but ask:
"You have a match this afternoon...?"

"Yep."

"Oh, what project?"

"Long-distance running."

Gu Wancheng didn't say anything after hearing this and continued lecturing.

Finally, accompanied by hurried footsteps, Li Min appeared at the door:

"That's enough! Everyone, get down! Take your own chairs with you!"

……

The reason why Class 7 of Grade 11 is only going downstairs now is because of safety concerns. Chairs need to be moved for both the opening and closing ceremonies, so they need to go down in order.

……

The hallway was filled with clanging and banging.

As Gu Youli turned the corner of the stairs, she noticed with curiosity that Guan Ren, who was leading the group and holding up the sign, was not at the front, but right behind her.

Holding the chair high, his arms dangled like a gorilla's, swinging it on either side of Gu Youli, glancing left and right.

Why don't you go to the front?

Gu Youli asked in a low voice.

Guan Ren also answered in a low voice:
"Your skin is too fragile. I'm worried you might get hurt somewhere. I'll keep an eye on you."

"..."

Little Pear Blossom's heart pounded upon hearing this.

Then, glancing at the two pigtails not far ahead, she asked softly:
"Aren't you afraid Luo Xiaobei will bump into something...?"

"she?"

Guan Ren shook his head honestly:
"Didn't you see? Everyone else is avoiding her."

Gu Youli took a look and it was true.

Because Luo Xiaobei was holding up a large sign.

That originally belonged to Guan Renju, but Luo Xiaobei "abused his power for personal gain" and took it to play with for a while.

"And what about her chair?"

"I'm helping her get a chair. I have to hold up a sign and do other projects, so I don't need to."

"..."

Gu Youli turned her face away with a "whoosh".

"Hmm? Sister Gu?"

"Focus on the road and talk less."

……

Gu Youli vaguely felt that she seemed to have become petty.

She wasn't a stingy person at all; she would never refuse to borrow notes or homework from any classmate.

But it seems she's not so generous when it comes to "borrowing" the boy she likes.

--------

Bright sunshine, cicadas chirping, a bustling playground.

A furrowed brow and a sweat-drenched smiling face.

The runway was filled with the unpleasant smell of hot plastic particles.

This is Guan Ren's memory of the opening ceremony of the summer sports meet during his youth.

Of course, the Carmen Overture, the William Tell Overture, and the Radetzky March were also played in turn on the podium.

Or every now and then, I don’t know which teacher switched to Lu Fang’s Life and that song Guan Ren himself didn’t know the title of, “I believe I am who I am, I believe in tomorrow, I believe the earth has no horizon~”.

slap~
"Luo Xiaobei, what are you doing..."

"Hit you~"

Luo Xiaobei put down the sign that had been knocking on him, which read "Class 7, Grade 11".
"Here you go. What were you thinking about just now?" "I was wondering if the Earth has a horizon."

"?"

Another essential part of the opening ceremony is the adjustment of the equipment on the dais.

"Hello, hello, hello..."

After being checked by several people, whether teachers or not, the microphone on the podium finally worked properly, producing a sonic boom before the head of the grade's voice rang out:
"...Hey, which class are you in over there? Class 7 of the second year of high school, why haven't you lined up yet?..."

"...Lift the chair, don't drag it..."

"...Hurry up and take your seats in your designated areas. Where is your homeroom teacher?..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Min came over with a dark face and started urging everyone who was still dawdling by the track to hurry inside.

But Guan Ren was more relaxed.

Anyway, he was the one holding the sign, so no matter how the line was rearranged, he was always the first one standing there.

So he continued to dawdle, even slower than Li Min, just to experience the pleasure of being an "outlaw".

"Guan Ren."

"?"

Suddenly, Guan Ren heard a soft, sweet voice behind him.

Turning my head, I saw a clean and tidy school uniform, a light yellow plastic hair clip, slightly curly hair, and a small, delicate oval face.

She is the Little Lemon Goddess.

"An Ning? Didn't your class come down early?"

"Okay, I'm going to get something for the teacher."

Guan Ren thought about it and realized that she was indeed the class's life committee member and did errands.

"Then I came down, and...and then a little..."

As she spoke, her petite figure stood on tiptoe, her face slightly flushed:
"I can't find my class..."

"That's it."

The tall Guan Ren looked up and gazed into the distance, then pointed:
“Your class is at the very end, so why don’t you just walk from outside the playground and then go down the steps when you get there?”

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

"Oh, by the way, it's a pity you didn't get the chance to be the host, but it's okay. Hosting is hot and tiring for your voice anyway, and you don't get any benefits in the end."

……

An Ning lost the election for host of the sports meet. She told Guan Ren the news yesterday, but Guan Ren was not surprised.

Although she is quite outstanding as a broadcaster, her voice is absolutely beautiful.

However, she lacked a certain energy, which made her less "spirited" and thus not quite in line with the requirements of the sports meet.

……

However, Xiao Ningmeng wasn't too discouraged. She had only gone to participate on the teacher's recommendation, so it wasn't a big problem.

However, watching her run towards the distance step by step, Guan Ren felt a strong urge to pick her up and run after her.

The "chong" in "chongci" (sprint).

Because they thought she ran too slowly.

But it's also quite cute how it runs...

"Hey…"

Guan Ren liked it so much that he couldn't help but grin.

But then a sharp gaze swept over him as he passed by.

"!"

Guan Renjing was startled and followed the gaze to see Gu Wancheng, dressed in sportswear, walking towards the stage while tying her hair in a ponytail.

"Teacher Gu."

Another new version?
Guan Ren's eyes lit up. This woman really doesn't care about clothes! She can even look so good in such a simple sun-protective outfit and cropped pants.

"You're going to compete too?"

"Ah."

Gu Wancheng nodded:

"Faculty and staff also have competitions."

"Oh fine."

Guan Ren turned his head after he finished speaking.

Gu Wancheng paused, her rosy lips parted slightly, and then she called out to him:
"you…"

"?"

"You... do your best and bring honor to the class. Also, be careful not to... be careful not to get injured again."

"Okay, thank you for your concern, Teacher Gu!"

Gu Wancheng ignored Guan Ren's thanks. Just then, another female teacher passed by, and after saying her thanks, she left with her.

……
