Love is as simple as badminton.

Finally, Gian returned to his warm cat cage.

That great man who once lived between heaven and earth now deeply feels that wherever his heart finds peace is his home.

You guys keep saying pet cats are useless, but I, Fat Tiger, will prove to you that there's nothing wrong with being useless!

"Yosh, all done!"

Jian Yueying and Chen Zi watched the replay once and nodded in satisfaction.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Lin!"

"Yes, it's my duty."

Watching the two leave, Shi Yuqi nudged Lin Xiang with her elbow, "The labor subsidy should be in your account by the end of the month, remember to check then. Our scholarships and grants are usually issued around that time too."

"Okay, thank you, senior."

"If you have any social practice quotas in the future, you can ask Yueyue for help! She's very outstanding; she often organizes and participates in various activities and has a wide range of knowledge, unlike me who only knows how to study, hehe~"

Shi Yuqi continued in a joking tone.

"My senior is also very outstanding."

Lin Xiang frowned slightly and corrected him with a serious expression.

Shi Yuqi was stunned for a moment when she saw this, then she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, a few blushes showing between her fingers.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again, and Chen Zi and Jian Yueying returned.

Inside the cat cage, Fat Fox Cat, who had just lain down, shuddered and widened its pupils.

Again?

Brother, I was wrong, please forgive me!

Quick, request a live stream connection! Fat Tiger is requesting a live stream connection!

Fortunately, this time it wasn't aimed at him—Chen Zi carried a camera and came up to Lin Xiang.

"Lin! You're going to participate in the Freshman Cup, right?"

"Yes, is there something you need?"

"We were also responsible for filming the promotional video for the Freshman Cup, and they asked us to interview several players."

But several of my classmates are in military training right now. Since you're here, I can just ask you to take the picture!

Chen Zi pushed up her glasses, looking like she had everything planned out.

"Can."

Lin Xiang then asked, "How do we film it?"

"Let me think... You can start by doing a few entrance moves! You've seen the Sudirman Cup and Thomas Cup, right? They're like that. Then I'll interview you, and you can just say what you want to say."

"it is good."

Lin Xiang pondered for a moment.

Then he tilted his head slightly, one eyebrow down and the other up, revealing a serious and resolute smile, and clenched his fist toward the camera.

Both his posture and expression are strikingly similar to the Sudirman Cup entrance voice of a certain prison player.

"Hahahaha!"

Unable to contain herself any longer, Shi Yuqi slammed her hand on the table and burst into laughter, quickly taking a picture to commemorate the moment.

"Is it funny?"

Lin Xiang frowned, puzzled, feeling that his senior's sense of humor was perhaps a little low.

"It's okay...he's quite handsome!"

Chen Zi, trying her best to remain composed, handed the microphone to Lin Xiang, "So, Lin, is there anything you'd like to say to everyone in front of the camera?"

"..."

Lin Xiang looked at Shi Yuqi.

"Why are you looking at me? Just tell me!"

Shi Yuqi found it a little funny, feeling like she was the parent of a child.

"What should I say?"

Lin Xiang showed an unusually troubled expression.

"Whatever! Since it's an interview, you're free to speak your mind and express your personality."

Shi Yuqi blinked encouragingly, "Just tell me what's on your mind."

"Is it okay to just say what's on my mind?"

"Uh-huh!"

"OK."

Lin Xiang looked at the camera with a serious expression.

"I am Lin Xiang, a freshman in the School of Social Sciences, class of 2025. My hobby is badminton."

I hope I can continuously surpass myself and become stronger; therefore, my current goal is to join the Xiangda University team and contribute my strength to the Badminton High School League.

"I will also aim for gold in this freshman cup competition and give it my all."

"Great! Very energetic!" Chen Zi gave a thumbs up.

Whether you're a boy or a girl, daring to seriously state your goals is a big plus!

"Is there anything else you'd like to say to your friends and classmates?"

Chen Zi held the microphone out to Lin Xiang again.

Normally, it's enough to just say the target, but since it's rare to find an acquaintance as the interviewee, of course, you have to make the most of it.

"some."

Lin Xiang nodded again very seriously.

"A coach once told me that the path to becoming stronger is destined to be lonely."

I don't agree with his point of view, but during practice, I did experience this loneliness and even wondered if I would always be alone.

But many people have come into my life and made me realize that this is not the case.

My parents have always been quietly supporting me, and my classmates and friends have also given me a lot of help.

To accommodate my schedule, my roommates turn off the lights early and keep quiet every day; my class advisor also encourages me to participate in the college league and has been working hard to get me opportunities from the college; my mentor, although a bit lazy, will pinpoint the problems I encounter in training, and I am very grateful to them...

Most importantly, I met Senior Poetry.

When he said this, Lin Xiang's voice was calm and even, as if he were saying that the weather was nice today.

Shi Yuqi, who was watching the melons not far away, was stunned when she heard this, just like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.

How did I end up getting caught up in the gossip myself?

"Shiyu-ki's badminton skills are not outstanding, but in my opinion, her love for badminton is purer than anyone else's."

We will train together, communicate together, and improve together. We will share each other's joys and bear each other's hardships.

In this process, I have gained a lot and become a better version of myself, and I continue to become a better version of myself.

It was Senior Sister Shi Yuqi who made me realize that I am not alone on the road to pursuing greater strength; just as the character "Yu" itself cannot stand alone, but can only stand in pairs.

"Yes, I am very grateful to Senior Shi Yuqi. Meeting her is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me."

After a burst of output, Lin Xiang raised his head in a good mood.

Actually, he has never been very good at handling interviews. When he was a kid, he would just give his opponent a couple of compliments during competitions and then leave. He even came up with a formula: today he would praise his opponent's skills, tomorrow he would praise his opponent's drive, and the day after he would praise his opponent's clear thinking...

This was the first time he had ever conducted an interview without any preparation.

Speaking your mind really works.

Lin Xiang looked at Shi Yuqi thoughtfully, only to find that the girl's face had turned a deep, bright red; perhaps because it was too hot, steam was still escaping from her head.

She was nothing like the composed and easygoing senior she usually was.

"Senior?"

Lin Xiang scratched his head and walked towards Shi Yuqi.

"I...I...I need to go to the restroom!"

The girl flinched as if she'd been electrocuted, quickly lowered her head, and then hurried away, running past Lin Xiang.

When she reached the door, she stopped and wanted to glance back at him, but found that he was still looking at her, his gaze never leaving her. So she quickly quickened her pace and ran away.

"Ouch!"

Staggering footsteps and shouts could be heard outside.

It sounded like he tripped, but he didn't fall and kept running.

"Is Shi Xuejie... alright?" Chen Zi blinked and looked at Jian Yueying.

"Don't worry~ I trust Qiqi~" Jian Yueying smiled like an aunt and looked at Lin Xiang.

"Is something wrong with it?"

Lin Xiang frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

He didn't feel anything was wrong; it was clearly his senior who asked him to speak his mind.

"Meow..."

Not far away, Fat Tiger relaxed in his cat cage.

It's good that it wasn't directed at him.

However, as soon as he lay down, he felt a sense of weightlessness, and when he opened his eyes again, he was being lifted up, cat and cage together.

"Alright, the video's finished, we can send it to the egg farm now!"

Gian: "???"
