Hmm...hmm? First time?

Chen Nuanxin suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

"You booked a horse riding lesson with the president? I've never heard of that before?" Zhou Qianwen covered her mouth, looking shocked.

Chen Nuanxin, who had been all smiles, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "Really? Qianwen, you didn't know about this...?"

Her brain raced, and Chen Nuanxin instinctively felt that this was already common information, but now, recalling it, it seemed that wasn't the case!

"Hmm..." Zhou Qianwen responded, then sat down in the seat in front. After a couple of seconds, she asked, "Is Guang and the president on good terms?"

"Well, I'm not quite sure..." Chen Nuanxin awkwardly scratched her cheek. Hearing this topic, especially since Chen Nuanxin knew what Qianwen thought about the boss, what would she think if she knew that another girl was also interested in the boss, and even the president! Recently, because she had been busy with her Douyin shop, she had even forgotten about such a simple matter concerning her friend. Chen Nuanxin also put aside her original intention to explain.

"I'm sorry..." Girls are very sensitive, and Chen Nuanxin was afraid that she would see Qianwen looking sad the next second, and if that happened...

Chen Nuanxin was too afraid to look up, and Qianwen remained silent.

Zhou Qianwen looked at Nuanxin's obviously remorseful expression. She wasn't in a hurry to ask any more questions she wanted to explore further. She wasn't a child anymore and needed to make more mature decisions. Zhou Qianwen took a deep breath and gently patted her cheeks with both hands: "It's okay, Nuanxin. You just need to answer one question for me."

Hearing this, Chen Nuanxin finally looked up, only to see Qianwen's face, which had hardened. This caused a strong shock within her, and she asked haltingly, "What's the problem..."

Zhou Qianwen looked at her very seriously and said slowly in a deep voice, "Is Guang still the same Guang as before?"

"Of course," Chen Nuanxin replied without hesitation.

"Then there's no problem. I trust him and I trust what he said. Even if the president is a little curious about Guang, I believe that the president and I are definitely on the same starting point. There's no problem!" Zhou Qianwen's last sentence, "There's no problem," seemed to be comforting Chen Nuanxin, comforting someone who was worried about her instead. This is enough to show how strong Zhou Qianwen's psychological core is.

Chen Nuanxin was stunned. So that meant Qianwen wanted to compete for the position of president... How amazing...

“Qianwen…” Chen Nuanxin pursed her lips. After hearing Qianwen’s words, she gradually began to favor Qianwen. The subservience of superiors to subordinates has always been an unavoidable element in many works!

Then Chen Nuanxin calmly told Zhou Qianwen everything she knew, and the two discussed the current situation. Upon hearing that Guang was still the same as before, Zhou Qianwen still chose to trust him.

……

what……

Guangchang let out a long sigh, his pace slowing as he walked toward the student council classroom. A light drizzle was still falling outside the teaching building, but the weather forecast predicted a bright and sunny day tomorrow. However, weather forecasts can be wrong sometimes!

As he stepped down the corridor, a figure suddenly approached and blocked Guang Changchen's path. The figure's hair was still wet, and it seemed that it had been waiting there all along.

Guang Chen spotted Han Junche immediately; even his uniform was soaked by the rain.

When Han Junche saw him, his chest heaved violently. He pointed at him and shouted, "Why didn't you come last week! Did you even take this bet between men seriously? You coward!"

Guangchang stared at him, then suddenly realized and said, "Oh, so you went last week too! I actually went too, but I think I went to the wrong playground, the North Playground. My mistake. Let's have another race! Let's set it at the 100-meter starting point on the West Playground! See you there!"

Han Junche looked surprised, and his anger subsided somewhat. He frowned and brushed past Guang Changchen, saying, "Fine, you've got guts. I'll wait for you. See you there."

Before leaving, Han Junche pointed at Guangchang, then walked straight towards the west playground in the rain.

Guangchang simply glanced at him again, his goal unchanged, and continued walking towards the student council classroom, still struggling with his inner turmoil.

I hope it rains again tomorrow...

40. The president's invitation to ride the horse!

……

"Then I'll set off."

"Take care on your journey." Chen Nuanxin saluted Guang Guangchen. The atmosphere was somewhat serious. Guang Guangchen walked out of the back door of the classroom, and the sunlight streaming into the corridor was almost blindingly bright. Wow...

There's no way to avoid it; he has to take special courses to earn credits. To graduate from this school, he must pass all three special courses. He has absolutely no equestrian skills, so he can only attend the beginner class with a group of first-year high school students.

Equestrian training is quite expensive, so it's usually chosen by students from well-off families. The fact that my predecessor chose this course clearly shows that he wanted to meet some high-society girls, which, in another sense, can be considered a kind of ambition.

"No need to see me off." Guangchang raised his hand to say goodbye to Chen Nuanxin and Zhou Qianwen, then turned right and disappeared into the corridor.

Chen Nuanxin stared blankly in the direction her boss had left. When she came to her senses, she took Qianwen's wrist, smiled and said with narrowed eyes, "Alright, let's hurry up and review."

Yes, you heard right. Chen Nuanxin, who has never liked studying, actually volunteered to review. Before, during the one hour of review time she stayed at school after school every day, Chen Nuanxin would really try to slack off whenever possible, but now...

"Warmhearted, you're really working hard these days," Zhou Qianwen said with a faint smile, a little different from the warmhearted image she remembered.

Chen Nuanxin lowered her gaze slightly and muttered, "Of course, if you don't work hard, you'll be eliminated by society. That's what the boss told me."

At that moment, Chen Nuanxin's mind flashed back to the day she walked home with her older brother after school. To get into the same university as him, she had to muster some determination! Okay…! Come on, Chen Nuanxin!

Chen Nuanxin felt a surge of fighting spirit, and she made time to tutor Qianwen, keeping it a secret from her boss. She hoped to surprise her boss during the next monthly exam, and Chen Nuanxin was absolutely certain that her boss would be happy for her.

Zhou Qianwen also sensed that Nuanxin was being stubborner than usual, it seems Nuanxin has grown up too...

“That course is incredibly boring!” Zhou Qianwen said, clenching her fist.

"No problem at all! Bring it on!" This is when you need to show some spirit!

……

The horse farm is located at the westernmost part of the school. Students like Guang Guangchen even have to take the school bus to get there. After getting off the bus, everyone needs to change into some professional equipment, such as riding breeches, riding boots, and equestrian helmets. After Guang Guangchen changed into his gear, he looked around and saw that all the first-year high school students looked like they were there to attend the banquet. They were gathered in small groups chatting. Occasionally, someone would recognize Guang Guangchen and come over to say hello, but Guang Guangchen would just smile and not pay much attention to them.

Just kidding, right now he only has one thing on his mind: when will the student council president come out and chat and laugh with him in front of everyone without any distance between them, making his name known throughout the entire school? As for the consequences of doing so... Yan Xingmeng didn't even think about the consequences! She's just that kind of person who puts her own amusement first!

Guangchang's eyes darted left and right, wondering how the other party would suddenly appear. Following the typical plot of classic TV dramas, shouldn't it be like the sound of hooves coming from afar, with the president riding in with unparalleled elegance, causing the new first-year high school students to cheer and scream for her? That's the typical scenario.

Just as he was imagining how the president would make his entrance, the equestrian instructor led Yan Xingmeng in from outside the riding arena.

An extremely ordinary entrance!

This was something Guang Chen hadn't expected.

Yan Xingmeng's appearance immediately caused a sensation in the entire junior class. Yan Xingmeng, the student council president! The leader of the F6 members! Her father is a vice-national level cadre in the central government, and she herself is also extremely outstanding. Her looks are so stunning that you can be mesmerized just by looking at her from afar.

"Let me introduce you all. Today, Yan Xingmeng will be our special equestrian instructor for this beginner class. Let's give her a round of applause!" The equestrian instructor was also a little excited and took the lead in clapping. The students who had gathered around also clapped and cheered.

The president actually came to the beginner class as an equestrian instructor? Wow! Even if it's just for one lesson, it's an immense honor!

"Study hard, everyone, and please take care of me." Yan Xingmeng's lips curled up slightly as she said this, and the whole room erupted in cheers. That's the kind of super popularity the F6 members have.

As for Guangchang, after hearing what she said, his doubts turned into relief. That's great! It wasn't a sudden appearance, and the special guidance was only for him. At least his appearance wouldn't feel abrupt to everyone. Really... this is scary.

Guang Guangchen glanced at Yan Xingmeng in front of him. At the same time, Yan Xingmeng seemed to sense that gaze, then accurately caught Guang Guangchen, tilted her head slightly in his direction, and smiled with narrowed eyes.

Many students on that side were so happy they even fainted – yes, it was that exaggerated.

Then the equestrian lesson began.

Initially, it's all about knowledge, including the horse's personality, habits, and care. Finally, it's time to get on a horse for the first time. An instructor will lead the horse forward, letting you experience what it's like to be on horseback. There will be six equestrian instructors in the class, taking turns in a row.

Yan Xingmeng, as an equestrian instructor, was quite enthusiastic. She chatted with a group of girls, carefully explained things to them, and even said she would randomly select people to teach them how to mount the horse. The girls who were selected really felt like they were dreaming. After the girls were helped to mount the horse, Yan Xingmeng followed and sat behind them, holding the reins and moving forward little by little.

That's quite a skill...

Time passed slowly, and after most of the time had gone by, when another girl reluctantly dismounted, Yan Xingmeng swept her gaze across the entire scene. In an instant, she felt as if she had thrown fish food into a pond, and a group of koi carp were scrambling to grab the food.

“Then this time, I’ll choose a boy.” Yan Xingmeng walked through the crowd and finally stood in front of Guang Changchen, smiling as she pointed at him and said, “It’s you then.”

When it came to choosing a boy for the first time, Guang Guangchen still became the target of everyone's criticism, but... this was much, much better than Guang Guangchen had originally expected.

Guang Guangchen nodded in agreement, and the two proceeded with the same process as before: Yan Xingmeng led the horse while Guang Guangchen sat on its back to experience it. It looked a little strange from the scene...

Once they were some distance from the crowd, Yan Xingmeng spoke up, "How was it? Wasn't this entrance quite simple? It didn't make you a public enemy, did it?"

"You really thought of everything. You just wanted to see how troubled I was by this, right?" Guangchang Chen shrugged and said.

"Don't think so badly of me. I've never thought of anything bad. Look, I even applied for the beginner equestrian instruction class just to save face for you. I've instructed so many new students, and I'm exhausted now."

Well... that makes sense. In order to conceal their rather special relationship, this approach is actually correct. Otherwise, just as Guang Chen thought, his name would be all over the school by the next day.

Yan Xingmeng can be this thoughtful sometimes.

"Okay, thank you," Guangchang said, his day was still very fruitful.

"That's more like it. Oh, by the way, I heard Han Junche got sick and went home again, you know..."

"I have absolutely no idea what happened." Guangchang Chen answered instantly with his eyes closed. He didn't know, he had absolutely no idea.

Suddenly he felt the horse stop. He thought they had arrived, but when he opened his eyes, he found that there was still half a circle to go. He turned his head and saw Yan Xingmeng standing beside the horse, staring straight at him. Then she made a strange gesture and stretched out her hand to him.

"What are you doing?" Guangchang asked, puzzled.

"What else can we do but pull me onto the horse? I already told you, it's the same as before." Yan Xingmeng gently shook her right hand, the faint smile on her lips never fading.

41. How about another lap?

Pull her onto the horse? Just like before? Guangchang recalled that when Yan Xingmeng was instructing those students, he was sitting behind them, pulling the reins and moving forward little by little. And most importantly, all the students who were selected were girls! Guangchang was the first boy to be selected, no... or rather, he wasn't even selected at all, but rather he was precisely chosen by the president long ago.

If the president were to actually mount the horse, the girls in front of him were generally short. The president could sit behind and control the reins if they were around 1.65 meters tall, but Guangchang himself was a full 1.77 meters tall, so it was obviously impossible for him. If he really mounted the horse, he would have to sit in front of him, which would look rather strange...

"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up," Yan Xingmeng urged.

Guangchang Chen came to his senses and replied, "No need for that. If you're tired, you can mount your horse and I'll dismount and follow you."

"No, if you don't let me ride the horse and teach you, I won't leave." Yan Xingmeng suddenly became a little willful, in front of everyone?

Yan Xingmeng pointed to the dusty ground and said, "I'm tired and don't want to walk anymore. If you won't let me mount the horse, I'll just lie down on the ground."

"?"

Between mounting the horse and not being allowed to mount it, is there really an option like "I can just lie down on the spot"? What on earth is the president thinking in his little head?

Guangchang looked at her with an ambiguous gaze, then sighed and said softly, "President, you know my personality. I really can say something like, 'Then you should lie down.'"

“Hmm…” Yan Xingmeng nodded gently and continued, “Of course I believe you might say that to others, but aren’t we friends? Would Guangchang turn a blind eye to a friend’s suffering?”

"How can you bring up suffering..."

Yan Xingmeng stared at him, as if to say, "If you don't do this, I'm really going to sit down on the spot." Guang Guangchen himself was completely unmoved by threats. Even if you said you would sleep here and falsely accuse me of touching you inappropriately, Guang Guangchen would not agree to it. But Yan Xingmeng was right about one thing. At this moment, in Guang Guangchen's heart, although Yan Xingmeng was very strange, after spending some time together, the two of them had really become friends.

Even without Shan Yimo's special request, Guangchang Chen felt he would get along well with the president.

Noticing Yan Xingmeng's slightly out of breath, Guangchang Chen realized that she was exhausted after instructing six girls in a row. He had never imagined that the words "This is for your own good" could be so hurtful.

"I'm truly impressed by you." As soon as Guang Guangchen said this, Yan Xingmeng knew that things had succeeded. She then reached out her hand again, and Guang Guangchen extended his left hand, pulling Yan Xingmeng onto the horse and making her sit in front of him.

"Look! Isn't the president sitting on the horse with that boy?!" The students who saw this from the other half of the field immediately erupted in excitement.

"Is the president really close to that guy? They even got to ride together, I'm so envious..."

"How is that possible! This clearly shows that the president treats boys and girls equally! The president is just too amazing!"

Most students support the latter view, since they can't believe that the leader of the core F6 members is so close to a boy they've never met.

This was what Guang Chen had been most worried about these past few days, fearing that Yan Xingmeng would act recklessly and disrupt his life rhythm. But he never expected that she would appear in a very reasonable capacity and use a sufficient reason to guide him. Although he would still be noticed by many people, the angle was obviously different. He was simply being taught horseback riding by the president to a beginner student.

Yan Xingmeng avoided suspicion for the sake of her future student life, which is why Guang Guangchen had a sudden urge to let her get on the horse. Otherwise, even if she slept here tonight, Guang Guangchen wouldn't care. For details, refer to Han Junche who was sick and recuperating at home.

On horseback, Guangchang Chen was a little stiff. The safe distance had been broken. It would have been fine if the wind hadn't blown, but when it did, the president's hair would hit his face, along with the faint fragrance. Guangchang Chen could see Yan Xingmeng's nape if he looked down slightly. He was like a sandbag, sitting motionless on the back of the horse.

"Guang Chen's hands are so big..."

"Please don't say such vulgar things, thank you."

Yan Xingmeng was secretly amused after hearing this. Was it really fun to toy with the heart of a pure and innocent young man?

For the next half lap, the two remained relatively quiet. After reaching the starting point, it was expected that someone else would be picked, but unexpectedly, the president showed no intention of stopping and continued on. The two on horseback asked each other questions, and Guang Chen also voiced all his doubts about equestrianism. Yan Xingmeng really knew everything. This continued until another lap was completed.

"Alright, Yan Xingmeng is tired, let's call it a day!" the equestrian instructor said loudly.

The students who weren't chosen could only groan in despair, while simultaneously envying those who were. Yan Xingmeng left first, and Guangchang Chen staggered towards the school bus. After this introductory class, Guangchang Chen had only one thought in his mind: Ugh... my butt hurts so much...

……

"No, no need to spend so much, it's a bit embarrassing." Chen Nuanxin said as she twisted open the head of the lobster. She had never seen one before, but she decided to take a bite first. When she first saw the Dong'ao rock lobster at 360 yuan per catty on the menu, she was shocked by the price and very curious about what it would taste like.

Of course, this meal wasn't something Guang Chen and Chen Nuanxin came here specifically for. Such a luxurious meal wouldn't suit Chen Nuanxin's stomach, who was eating chicken leg rice in Shaxian County earlier this year. The main reason was that someone else was treating them today.

"Do you like to eat lobster?" Shan Yimo asked casually when she saw her like this.

"Well... sort of." Chen Nuanxin had never eaten it before, but she still loved crayfish, so it should be pretty much the same for her.

"Hmm... then besides grilling, let's have South Australian rock lobster for sashimi and rose lobster steamed." Shan Yimo ordered two more.

Chen Nuanxin froze, holding the grilled lobster meat in both hands. She then turned to look at the boss sitting on her left and said blankly, "Boss, did your heart tremble violently when you heard that?"

"No, you should really put away your greedy little mindset." Guang Chen gently patted Nuan Xin's head, and Nuan Xin shrank back and continued eating.

"Please eat as much as you like. This is mainly to thank you all. Ever since Han Junche fell ill, he hasn't bothered me anymore. I heard from the president that Guangchang Chen, you made all of this," Shan Yimo said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Nuanxin, who was holding a lobster and eating it, turned to the side with a surprised look, creating a somewhat comical scene.

"I don't know, I have absolutely no idea." Guangchang closed his eyes and just kept shaking his head.
