After seeing the emotion color, they all turned pink.

Class 8 of Grade 11 finally had a physical education class this afternoon, but Xu Chuan woke up from a nap in the classroom to find that he had accumulated a lot of things to deal with.

They were all sent to him by Xu Wanxing.

Little Star finished the question bank that Xu Chuan sent her in one afternoon.

Then she sent over the answers, along with her analysis and understanding of each question, in great detail.

It's safe to say that she truly lives up to her reputation as a top student from No. 3 Middle School; she's incredibly skilled at handling computer-based exams in the preliminary rounds.

Because there was so little time between classes, Xu Chuan could only absorb the nutrients during physical education class.

Sorry kids, I've already reserved Jiahao's spot for this PE class.

The public high schools in Yiyue City have strict requirements for physical education classes, the most important of which is that students cannot skip class. Therefore, Xu Chuan went to the playground with his mobile phone and a large question bank book.

When you have free time, find a shady spot, strike a melancholy pose, and start absorbing the energy.

"What are you doing?"

Before they lined up for morning exercises, Li You stared in shock as Xu Chuan bent down, pulled out a document, and placed it on the green field. "W-what are you doing? Don't scare me..."

"I have no choice, bro, I'm going to go all out today."

Morning exercises begin.

In Class 8, physical education classes usually involve walking around the playground twice before students can be dismissed. Moreover, students cannot return to the classroom before the bell rings, and they are forced to sunbathe even if they do nothing.

"You better be really rich, and whatever you do, don't actually learn it!" Li You said, turning his head as he ran, giving him a thousand and one instructions, and sewing his clothes tightly before he left.

"Brother Bao, just be a little extravagant and try to attract Princess Xixi's attention," Xu Chuan joked with him.

"Are you serious? Forget it, going with Niu Jiayu's Jiahao sequence is not a good idea. I suggest switching to the 'simp' sequence, the chances are slightly better..."

"That makes sense. After I finish shopping, I plan to give Princess Xixi a drink. Could you buy it for me beforehand and give it to me before get out of class ends?"

Xu Chuan handed Li You three coins and carefully instructed him, "Princess Xixi loves to order tropical-flavored iced tea, preferably chilled. Buy this one, don't forget..."

Li Youle happily agreed, afraid that Xu Chuan wouldn't go, and didn't forget to encourage him again before leaving. What could be more fun than watching his brother make a fool of himself?

"Xu Chuan, you're awesome, you're a warrior..."

I'm still a Laker!

After the morning exercise,

Xu Chuan picked up the materials from the green grass with a refreshing air, walked to the podium, and, taking advantage of the shade of the ceiling, sat down on the steps, opened his phone, and started flipping through the question bank materials.

I'm also looking forward to having my filial son, Yuzi, bring him a bottle of chilled tropical-flavored iced tea to quench his thirst when he gets tired of studying.

Ignoring the stares of the students playing freely on the playground, Xu Chuan activated his "Focus Blue" ability and rapidly absorbed the notes Xu Wanxing had sent him.

"Rustling..."

Someone passed by Xu Chuan and stood not far from his row of steps.

It was Niu Jiayu. He was also holding that large book of question bank materials. He glanced at Xu Chuan first, then snorted and sat down, starting to memorize the questions.

While reciting, Niu Jiayu stole glances at Xu Chuan.

Hmph, I didn't expect him to use this move too. These are all my moves.

Isn't it just to attract Princess Xixi's attention?

You have no innovation whatsoever, you just imitate me, but can your grades be better than mine?

Thinking of this, Niu Jiayu instantly felt relieved. "That's right, my grades are much better than Xu Chuan's! Next week's big monthly exam, I'll show Princess Xixi how my total score crushes yours, hmph!"

A sense of superiority welled up within him, and he had already regarded Xu Chuan as a formidable rival.

Meanwhile, diagonally opposite the podium,

On the volleyball court, the students of Class 8 were standing scattered around, looking around.

"Xiaoxuan, let's find another one, then we'll have a total of twelve people."

Standing on the other side of the net, Yang Siqi tiptoed towards Gao Xuan, who was holding a volleyball, and suggested, "Let's see who's free. Those sitting on the grass over there, how about they play?"

Gao Xuan followed Yang Siqi's gaze and saw Li Jiaxin and Ren Shuer sitting on the green grass, chatting.

She wasn't very familiar with them, and besides, there were two of them, but they only needed one. It wouldn't be right to forcibly separate their daughters, and the girls wouldn't want to either.

"Hmm...it doesn't seem like it will work..."

Gao Xuan scanned the entire playground but didn't find a single lone girl. "There aren't any girls left..."

"Then let's find a guy."

Yang Siqi suggested, then smiled and looked at Lin Xixi on the other side, "Let Princess Xixi go find a boy, she'll definitely be able to do it!"

"Haha, sure!" Lin Xixi readily agreed. She had been looking forward to PE class for half a week and was eager to get some exercise.

"Boys..." Gao Xuan frowned and looked around the playground again.

Actually, there were relatively few boys left alone; most of them went to play basketball.

Then there's billiards, a sport that's very flexible. It doesn't require a fixed number of people, even or odd. A table can be set up as long as there are two or more people.

"Hey, Niu Jiayu."

Yang Siqi actually saw Xu Chuan below the steps of the podium first, but she called out Niu Jiayu first.

She was quite shrewd; she didn't want to call the boys herself, but she knew that Niu Jiayu was sitting close to Lin Xixi and Gao Xuan.

Compared to Xu Chuan, they couldn't refuse to call Niu Jiayu on the grounds of "not being familiar with her".

Gao Xuan didn't want to call Niu Jiayu, and she also saw Xu Chuan. Of course, she didn't want to call Xu Chuan either!

"And Xu Chuan, he didn't go to play basketball today, let him come and play with us."

Another girl, Zhang Jiayi, noticed Xu Chuan and suggested that she didn't want to play with Niu Jiayu.

"'Didn't go play basketball this time,' tsk..."

Yang Siqi repeated Zhang Jiayi's words, her eyes crinkling with a smile, "Jiayi~ how do you know what he does in PE class every day? You're so interested~"

"No, don't all boys like playing basketball? He's often with Li You..."

Zhang Jiayi shrugged and tried to explain, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by another girl's teasing voice.

"Wow~ Jiayi, do you even know who he's good friends with? We didn't know at all~"

"Wow, you guys shouldn't say things like that, it'll be bad if it gets back to them..."

Zhang Jiayi suddenly panicked and said, "He probably has someone he likes..."

"Huh? Who does he like? Who does he like?"

This kind of pink-themed gossip is like a bombshell among girls.

Everyone moved closer, and the girl who had been standing far away even put her arm on the net and perked up her ears.

"No, why are you all like this...?"

Zhang Jiayi was startled by the commotion, scratching her face. "I'm not sure either, I just heard it from someone else..."

"Who is it? Who does he like? Princess Xixi, you know..."

Yang Siqi was so excited that she spoke without restraint, even forgetting that Princess Xixi was standing on the other side of the net.

"Is it Xixi? Is it Xixi?" Several more girls asked with smiles.

Lin Xixi suddenly felt a little flustered, unsure of what to do.

Should we stop it?

Stop them from gossiping about male classmates behind their backs in public.

Gao Xuan was also nearby. She didn't say anything either, just blinked, holding a volleyball, and curiously leaned forward to listen.

Xiao Xuan... what exactly is going on between her and Xu Chuan... Lin Xixi really wasn't sure, and couldn't figure it out...

But... deep down, Lin Xixi actually really wanted to hear it too.

Why? Because this is bad, it's wrong...

She was a little confused. Was she curious about the pink gossip about "liking" someone, or about "Xu Chuan"?

Give them two seconds. If Jiayi doesn't speak within two seconds, then she will go up and stop them. She is the class monitor of Class 8.

Two seconds, fine, just two seconds...

No, that's not it.

Zhang Jiayi glanced at Lin Xixi, shook her head slightly, and replied.

She glanced around at everyone again, then opened her mouth, hunched her head, and lowered her voice.

"Let's not talk about this here, Jiayi."

Lin Xixi interrupted Zhang Jiayi's almost-spoken words.

She smiled, her eyes gentle and clear as she looked at Zhang Jiayi, her long eyelashes curving into a lovely arc.

The chattering girls immediately fell silent and turned to look at Lin Xixi.

The afternoon sun cast a soft glow on the volleyball court, making Lin Xixi's delicate face appear smooth and fair.

The slight sweat from her exercise dampened the baby hairs at her temples, which playfully curled around her sides and clung to her cheeks.

Princess Xixi raised her arms and waved gently, her voice filled with a soft smile.

"This... isn't good for Xu Chuan..."
