Chapter 206: 204, Storing Perfect Rating Level Rewards (Second Update)_1

This time, at the welcome party, Ren He completed two tasks in one go, one was performing on stage, and the other was receiving the applause of 2000 people.

However, the performance on stage turned into a big deal, and the applause task earned him almost everyone’s claps, both could be said to have been exceeded, so both rewards simultaneously attained a perfect assessment, allowing him to choose the direction of his reward.

What to choose, Ren He was a bit uncertain, it seemed like he didn’t have any needs right now, isn’t it better to use the targeted rewards when encountering difficulties?

Ren He suddenly asked the Divine Punishment System in his mind, "Can I save these two targeted rewards for now and use them when I want to?"

"You can, with no time limit," the Divine Punishment System replied.

What the heck, so you wouldn’t mention it if I didn’t ask? Ren He had always thought that such rewards had to be used on the spot, but now he knew they were indefinite, meaning he could save up a few rewards for emergencies.

Who doesn’t run into a few tough spots in their life? With the backing of the Divine Punishment System’s rewards, Ren He felt more assured.

No sooner had he arrived home than he received a call from Yang Xi, "Hey, I’m almost home so I can only chat with you for a while."

"Heh heh, surprised?" Ren He said cheerfully, "Don’t blame me for keeping it a secret, if I told you earlier, there wouldn’t be this element of surprise, right?"

"I won’t blame you now, but I’ll remember this, you owe me one. When I saw you on stage today, I almost rushed down," Yang Xi laughed, she had really been tempted to rush down and throw herself into Ren He’s arms at that moment, her independent personality wouldn’t care about the opinions of others, if she felt like pouncing, she would pounce no matter how long the two of them had been apart.

"If you had really pounced on me, I would’ve really become famous," laughed Ren He, knowing Yang Xi was indeed capable of such an act, the two of them had cooperated well today, and nobody could tell they had known each other before.

"How did you get into No.4 Middle School?" Yang Xi asked out of curiosity.

"Didn’t I write ’Kunlun,’ and together with Elder Zhou, we started the Qinghe Fund for charity? I’m now a formal employee of the Capital Journalism Group, unpaid..." Speaking of which, it really was something. Although Elder Zhou had arranged a position for him, solving his household registration issue, he simply refused to pay Ren He a salary. Although Ren He wasn’t short of money, he found it awkward nonetheless.

As Ren He explained in detail, Yang Xi understood how he had infiltrated the inner workings of No.4 Middle School. It sounded easy, but she knew the process was anything but.

Her heart softened as she said, "You’ve worked hard, get some rest early, I’m home now, let’s meet tomorrow!"

Tomorrow was the day to formally start classes at school, and Yang Xi’s album recording was finished so it was time for her to come back and seriously attend academic classes. Previously, this was a requirement by Su Ruqin, but now it was Yang Xi’s own earnest anticipation.

In the past, Yang Xi was neither against nor resistant to going to school, knowing it was necessary to continue her education as she didn’t want to become an illiterate celebrity in the future.

But now, she was simply eager to return to No.4 Middle School.

The next day, Yang En took Yang Xi to the school to handle her formal enrollment procedures, and the first thing they did was visit the office of the old principal, who welcomed Yang Xi with a smile, "Welcome back to school. However, I must give you a heads-up, if you need to leave for something, you must ask for leave, and you won’t receive any special treatment."

"Got it," Yang Xi nodded obediently.

Yang En and the old principal chatted for a while, and that’s when Yang Xi found out that Yang En too had come from No.4 Middle School, not to mention, her two uncles were also graduates from there. Given that No.4 Middle School was a prestigious school with a century-long history, this fact was not at all surprising considering Yang Xi’s family background.

Back when Yang En and his friends were students here, the old principal was already in charge of No.4 Middle School. Yang En visited him often and would even come to pay his respects during New Year’s if he was in Capital.

"All right, you take Xi to the Academic Affairs Office to get the textbooks for the first year of high school," Elder Zhou said with a smile. "The classes should have been assigned by now, and the teachers there will help you with the arrangements."

However, just as Yang En was about to take his leave, he heard Yang Xi say, "Can I choose my own class? Just this one little request."

...

When Ren He entered the classroom this morning, he was immediately grabbed by Liu Bing and Jiang Haoyang and dragged to the side. "Bro, our No.4 Middle School is truly great, always has been, but you know what’s been a big regret for us?"

Ren He was confused: "What is it?"

"Yang Xi’s from our No.4 Middle School, she’s been here since junior high. You saw how popular she was yesterday, right? Popular, wasn’t she?" Liu Bing whispered.

"Mhmm, mhmm, you’re right," Ren He just waited to hear what he would say next. This guy always had a penchant for teasing, and Ren He wouldn’t chime in until he had finished.

"But there’s this one regret at No.4 Middle School, and that’s why Yang Xi’s boyfriend isn’t one of us. Isn’t that regrettable? I mean, who’s the bastard who had no reverence and actually lured away such an outstanding girl from our school? Isn’t that immoral? What do you think?" Liu Bing said indignantly.

Ren He just calmly watched him, his eyelids twitching...

"Eh? Don’t you agree?" Liu Bing pressed when Ren He remained silent, unaware that the very person he was cursing was right in front of him.

Suddenly, Ren He felt an urge to splash Emetic Water and Tear Potion on Liu Bing’s face, but he held back: "Hehe, no."

"How is it not?" Liu Bing persisted, but for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of danger surrounding him. Liu Bing murmured softly, "I mean, as our chief rascal, you could make a big fuss about it. Surely you’d have the chance to make us guys who like Yang Xi proud!"

To puff up with pride... So he was inciting him to go after Yang Xi? That would be superfluous...

At times like this, Ren He felt a certain thrill from the intellectual superiority. Here he was, standing right in front of them, yet nobody knew he was Yang Xi’s boyfriend.

"Who knows which class Yang Xi will end up in. I heard people saw her at school just now. By rights, she should be at the Academic Affairs Office getting her books, ready to start school. What if she ends up in our class? Your chances would be even better!"

Many people harbored a subtle anticipation at such times, much like how many boys, upon entering a new class, would pretend to be indifferent while scoping out if there were any beauties, simply hoping for the appearance of a pretty girl. It doesn’t necessarily mean wanting to do anything; it’s just a typical male psyche. Doing or not is one thing; having an opportunity or not is another.

And at this moment, many didn’t voice it, but they harbored a quiet thought: What if Yang Xi really did end up in their class?

Just then, the bell rang for class to begin and everyone went back to their seats. There was a small stir as they watched through the classroom window their homeroom teacher, Yang Lan, walk past with Yang Xi, then come into the class.

"Ahem," Yang Lan coughed twice and looked at the excited students below. "Let’s welcome your new classmate, Yang Xi."
