72. Met Liang Ziqian again

When Yan Shi arrived, the glasses boy was taking attendance. He quickly came over when he saw Yan Shi.

Before Yan Shi came, the glasses boy had received messages from two students who regretted it and wanted to join the math olympiad instead. Even though the math olympiad was much more competitive than the language contest and its prizes were smaller, students were more willing to join the math olympiad because of pride.

So when Yan Shi arrived on time, the glasses boy was very happy. At least no one else was quitting.

“Yan Shi, I believe you can get a good ranking for the school! It’s a big honor to compete for the school!”

Praise, praise even more! He planned to make the other person feel a sense of honor to increase the possibility of that person staying with them to work for victory.

Yan Shi felt embarrassed after being praised like that. She could only nod with a dry smile, saying that she would do her best.

She wasn’t sure about getting a good ranking but as long as she joined the language contest, she would get a prize. One person would get three hundred dollars. She only came because of that.

After the glasses boy finished the head count, he noticed an extra person. That tall young man standing at the corner seemed to look like the school god, Wen Tianji?

Wen Tianji’s half-lidded eyes opened a little when he heard the glasses boy’s words, revealing his light-colored eyes, “No, I come to join the contest.”

The glasses boy suspected that he heard him wrong, but Wen Tianji really did say that he was here to join the contest just now.

Yan Shi looked at Wen Tianji talking to the glasses boy from a distance away. She lowered her eyes subconsciously, pretending that she did not see Wen Tianji.

“Since Wen Tianji wants to join the language contest too, then kindly fill up this form! It won’t take long to fill it up, no worries.” The glasses boy quickly took out the form and pen.

When Wen Tianji began filling up the form, the glasses boy was excited: “This is great! Mr. Wen comes in first of his grade. With you around, it won’t be a problem for our school to take first place.”

Yan Shi looked at her shoes with her head down, as if there was a flower growing on her shoe.

Suddenly Yan Shi’s body turned stiff. It was because she inhaled a familiar scent. It was a mixed aroma of wood and tea. Although the scent was faint, Yan Shi had smelt it too many times. Her heart would be excited when she sensed it in the past, but now she just wanted to step back and go far away from it.

Yan Shi didn’t want to have any contact with Liang Ziqian but Liang Ziqian was standing directly in front of her.

The glasses boy noticed Liang Ziqian’s arrival and abruptly waved his hand to greet him.

“President! Why are you here? The people joining the language contest are all here. This is the list, please take a look at it.” The glasses boy walked towards Liang Ziqian while holding the name list.

Liang Ziqian nodded and took the name list that was passed to him. He seemed to be reading it seriously.

Yan Shi didn’t raise her head. She slowly took a step back.

Liang Ziqian had a long, slender body with a sturdy build. He had distinctive facial features and a pair of golden frame glasses on his nose. He looked extremely gentleman and reserved.

They were both wearing glasses but the glasses boy only looked like a normal student with near-sightedness, while Liang Ziqian looked like a high IQ pretty guy.

Liang Ziqian was too dazzling. It was hard for most people to not be attracted to him, including Yan Shi right now.

But Yan Shi didn’t like someone who had lied to her before. Even if she knew that Liang Ziqian did have a little liking for her before, what she heard that day outside the student council president’s office would always be a thorn in her heart.

This thorn had never been pulled out, but it was not important anymore because she had people that she fancied now. Cheng Yimian and Nan Fengyi were nice to her. Yan Shi felt her mood becoming slightly better after she thought of both of them.

“It’s rare that we are not lacking people to join the language contest. With more people joining, secretary Chen might become busier. If anyone faces any problems, feel free to ask me.” There was a smile on his face when Liang Ziqian spoke, looking like a dependable senior at one glance.

The glasses boy quickly waved his hand and said: “How can we do that? President is so busy, we can’t use up your time!”

Yan Shi took another step back when the glasses boy was speaking. In the end, she bumped into a human wall. She managed to stand steadily when the person held her shoulders.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Yan Shi turned around while apologizing, and found out that the person she bumped into was actually Wen Tianji.

She didn’t know when Wen Tianji came and stood behind her. She didn’t notice him at all.

“You’re so thin.” Wen Tianji’s hands were still on Yan Shi’s shoulder.

Liang Ziqian moved Wen Tianji’s hand away, placing himself in between Yan Shi and Wen Tianji. He then said: “Now I’ll talk about the time and content of training. Everyone please note down.”

Yan Shi quietly moved away again. She suddenly regretted joining the language contest. Liang Ziqian and Wen Tianji were both around, so this was not a good time to ask if she could quit. Yan Shi decided to ask secretary Chen alone tomorrow.

After he briefed about the content and time, Liang Ziqian announced that they were dismissed. They would formally start training tomorrow night, and the group training would be held on Monday and Wednesday nights as well as Saturday mornings.

Yan Shi prepared to leave after she jotted down the time. She only took two steps when Liang Ziqian called out to her.

“Yan Shi, can we talk?” Liang Ziqian was standing behind her.

Yan Shi didn’t know what to talk about with Liang Ziqian. She pretended that she didn’t hear it and walked forward.

But Liang Ziqian did not give up just like that. He followed behind Yan Shi while keeping a short distance behind her.

Wen Tianji suddenly appeared and put his arm around Yan Shi’s shoulder, “Let’s walk together.”

Yan Shi subconsciously turned around to look at Liang Ziqian. She saw that Liang Ziqian stood at the same spot and did not continue following them.

What kind of expression was on Liang Ziqian’s face right now? His eyes were hidden behind the reflection on his glasses. Only his stiff chin and pursed lips revealed his emotions.
