Chapter 209 – Spring Outing Plan

It wasn’t not me who died, but the character I was controlling on the game screen. The excruciating pain seems to come in waves. Okay!   At the beginning of the new semester, the pace of the classes was a bit slower as everyone gradually got back into the routine of high school life. Lin Youxi ran ahead and then pulled down her eyelids, making a funny face at Mei Fang. Auntie doesn’t need your help, understood?    

While Mei Fang and Lin were conversing, Yue suddenly stood up, covering her mouth, and made a face as if she was about to vomit.       In Class 3, the seating arrangement was shuffled again. This time, the homeroom teacher, Dong Zhongying, brought a lottery box for everyone to draw numbers and choose seats in order. After selecting seats, students could adjust based on their heights, and the seating would shift one spot to the right each month. Support the translator by reading @ gemnovels . com

Drawn to the unexpected sight, Yukino entered further into the room. Curious about their conversation, I stopped and looked toward them.  Mei Fang was lucky this time and drew the number 3, allowing him to be the third person to choose a seat. Aisha is being targeted by a faction led by her father’s younger brother, her uncle. I let out a sigh and let go of the controller.    

Never defy them. Just bow your head and endure whatever was told to you, like waiting for a storm to pass. Yes, please do as you wish.  He didn’t have many preferences when choosing his seat—listening to lectures was about the same anywhere. As long as it was convenient for him to socialize with girls from other classes, for example, those from Class 5, that was good enough. The meat they bought was chicken, with a clean, fresh pink color. While traveling along a mountain, they were caught up in a landslide.

It was a few days ago when he heard that a new lord would be coming to the neglected lord’s mansion. N-No, it’s… not a problem at all.  He chose a seat at the back near the window—the “main character’s seat.” However, it was impossible to keep a rebellion involving over two hundred gladiators completely secret. The enemy is attacking!      

It’s the name of mankind’s last fortress city, a mixture of metal and stone. The amount of money required for the this was enormous.     It was the outer window seat, which wasn’t very popular since it was a prime spot for the homeroom teacher to monitor. Any mischief during class would be easily spotted. Drawn to the unexpected sight, Yukino entered further into the room. Curious about their conversation, I stopped and looked toward them.

Before long, the three hundred soldiers shouted and rushed towards the farm 100 meters away. He saw the situation and calmed down.     Not everyone had friends in other classes like Mei Fang, so this seat wasn’t desirable to many. Although I had no intention of getting deeply involved and was about to leave her behind, I couldn’t say that. Should I challenge there?

Although I had no intention of getting deeply involved and was about to leave her behind, I couldn’t say that. Should I challenge there?  After filling out his seat choice on the blackboard and sitting on his new seat, Mei Fang noticed a group of girls whispering among themselves. It wasn’t not me who died, but the character I was controlling on the game screen. The excruciating pain seems to come in waves. Okay! 

Although I had no intention of getting deeply involved and was about to leave her behind, I couldn’t say that. Should I challenge there?  When it was their turn to choose seats, he observed that they either chose spots in front or behind him in Group 1 or in the wall-adjacent Group 4 seats. This meant that in the following months, they could be in the same row as Mei Fang or even sit next to him. The situation was urgent, and Maximus couldn’t spare a moment to look. Furius stopped asking questions and turned to the messenger.  

In this world, paper books were extremely valuable and considered treasures. Yes, the leftover parts after harvesting the barley ears.  Unlike his experience at Baimei No. 1 High School in his previous life, academic performance wasn’t a major factor in a boy’s popularity at Jiangcheng NOHS. His parents got married at a young age, and now they were only in their late twenties, not much older than Mei Fang when he died.    

They could all be played, but the only downside was that both Resident Evil and Anacondas had Chinese dubs. That'd be quite a favor.   This was because everyone was quite capable academically, with no drastic differences in academic prowess. Moreover, many local students in the parallel class were either preparing to study abroad or to lie flat^[1] in the local 985/211 universities and weren’t overly focused on the college entrance exam. Alexis however, trampled brutally on Milfina’s wishes and prayers. Thank you. Please consult with me again if anything else comes up. 

Aisha is being targeted by a faction led by her father’s younger brother, her uncle. I let out a sigh and let go of the controller.      Mei Fang’s musical talent (not just playing guitar but also composing his own songs) set him apart, making him exceptionally popular. He experienced firsthand what it was like to be a well-liked boy in the class. In the game, Cedric was the Knight Commander of the Royal Knights as well as the head of the Count house. Rod, Rod! Are you okay?     

Bathed in the white moonlight, she looked at me with a faint glow. This platform seems to be a special tool used to measure that level.  Although girls didn’t outwardly gush over him, their eagerness to talk to him was evident. Wang Jiayu, who sat in front, often teased Mei Fang by bringing up conversations he and his female friends had about him. Despite feigning annoyance, Mei Fang felt a small sense of achievement.

After seeing Liang Meijuan and Lin Youxi off, Xia Yuan finally relaxed her previously tense mood. I’m not forcing Them. Tha is good!   Many girls preferred to sit near Mei Fang, but perhaps out of consideration for his two childhood sweethearts, no one chose the seat directly next to him. The soldiers were filled with renewed spirit, but some remained puzzled. Furius, bewildered, was swept away by the fleeing soldiers. 

In order to prevent this child from having any regrets about her childhood, Mei Fang naturally wanted to fulfill Xia Yuan’s wishes.    As for the boys, Mei Fang’s few close friends were all assigned seats towards the back, while the others, not being close to him and likely tired of seeing him always being in the limelight, didn’t opt to sit next to him either.

Yukino seemed to have a favorable impression of her. Perhaps, with her words, she is implying that she doesn’t need any further probing.  However, during the seat selection process, one bold girl finally chose the seat next to Mei Fang. However, it was impossible to keep a rebellion involving over two hundred gladiators completely secret. The enemy is attacking!      

The names Crixus mentioned were all Gaulish gladiators and close friends of his. The entire army formation began to move forward.      It was Xiang Bingbing. A sister being born and father being promoted, the twists and turns of life are truly unpredictable. Xiang Xiaoxia sighed helplessly.

Lin Youxi ran ahead and then pulled down her eyelids, making a funny face at Mei Fang. Auntie doesn’t need your help, understood?      When Xiang Bingbing was choosing her seat, she naturally found Mei Fang’s name first and wrote her own name next to it with the chalk.

After seeing Liang Meijuan and Lin Youxi off, Xia Yuan finally relaxed her previously tense mood. I’m not forcing Them. Tha is good!   Under the various gazes of her classmates, she walked down and proudly showed off to Mei Fang’s former deskmate, Wan Chaoxiong, before sitting on her new seat and poking Mei Fang. She smiled brightly at him:
“We’re deskmates again!” However, it was impossible to keep a rebellion involving over two hundred gladiators completely secret. The enemy is attacking!      

His thick beard made him look old, but from the tone of his voice, he seemed to be still in his prime. And then an accident occurred.   Before Mei Fang could respond, Wan Chaoxiong gave Xiang Bingbing a m*ddle f*nger. As the Roman soldiers marched out of the camp, the rebel army also began to move. Good Lord, how can there be so many people?!       

However, it was impossible to keep a rebellion involving over two hundred gladiators completely secret. The enemy is attacking!        “You’re doomed, Xiang Bingbing. Don’t you see how tightly Boss Mei’s two childhood sweethearts keep an eye on him? And you still dare to sit next to him.” Aisha, Natsumi, and Roy should be somewhere in this line. Yukino shyly bowed to the staff member who praised their achievements today. 

The decorative book in front of me had a thick cover with a metal clasp and a lock. At some point, we'd need to come to an agreement.   “What’s the big deal? Mei Fang and I were deskmates during the summer training camp.” Support the translator by reading @ gem novels,com

Vorenus entered the room and saw Maximus sitting at the edge of the bed. Frontinus, do you see anything else that needs attention?     Xiang Bingbing smiled and replied, “Besides, I’m good friends with Yuan Yuan and Youxi. They don’t mind, right, Ah Fang?” With Melfina as an example, the marriageable age in this world was quite early. Hello, I’m Melfina. Can you tell me your name? Rod!   

After a while, the Roman legion completed its formation but remained stationary. m… when I left, it was about three kilometers.        “?” A sister being born and father being promoted, the twists and turns of life are truly unpredictable. Xiang Xiaoxia sighed helplessly.

Xia Yuan enjoyed breathing in the fresh air on the road. When passing by Lin Youxi’s house, she looked around. She must be happy.      Mei Fang quickly reminded Xiang Bingbing, “Don’t call me that. I told you last time.” His parents got married at a young age, and now they were only in their late twenties, not much older than Mei Fang when he died.    

In this world, paper books were extremely valuable and considered treasures. Yes, the leftover parts after harvesting the barley ears.  “Haha… I got used to it because I always hear them calling you that.” In fact, they had already reached a unanimous agreement earlier, so the vote now was just a formality. These cunning Romans!         

Now, back to Aisha’s expression. The reason for this change was undoubtedly Yukiho’s presence. The destination I aim for lies ahead.     Xiang Bingbing scratched her head and smiled, “By the way, did you guys hear? My roommate told me that our school is organizing a spring outing at the end of the month!” Although this happened when Lin Youxi was only three or four years old, she might have recalled this familiar scene. Wait a minute.  

It’s the name of mankind’s last fortress city, a mixture of metal and stone. The amount of money required for the this was enormous.     “What’s so surprising about a spring outing? We have it every year, spring and autumn,” said Wan Chaoxiong nonchalantly. “It’s just hiking and mountain climbing. Boring.” It seemed that Yukino had grown closer to Aisha. As I watched with interest, numbers in light blue appeared on the back of her hand.   

Next came the more complicated task of contacting everyone. Mei Fang asked about everyone’s availability in the Ximilu group chat.     “But we didn’t have an autumn outing last year!” Xiang Bingbing pouted. “I’ve never been on a spring or autumn outing.” The decorative book in front of me had a thick cover with a metal clasp and a lock. At some point, we'd need to come to an agreement. 

Xia Yuan enjoyed breathing in the fresh air on the road. When passing by Lin Youxi’s house, she looked around. She must be happy.      “Last year? Didn’t we go target shooting together last year? That social practice trip should count as the autumn outing.” Aisha, Natsumi, and Roy should be somewhere in this line. Yukino shyly bowed to the staff member who praised their achievements today. 

After reserving a computer at the computer store, the family of three went to the lottery shop together to confirm the exciting.       “That was no fun, I’ve done it many times in Shennongjia before. Back then my grandpa…” Support the translator by reading @ gemnovels,com

It’s the name of mankind’s last fortress city, a mixture of metal and stone. The amount of money required for the this was enormous.     Xiang Bingbing was chatting away animatedly, while Mei Fang listened with interest from the side. “Do you know if the spring outing is organized by the class or by the whole grade?” However, Spartacus couldn’t immediately abandon the troops and leave. In the afternoon, the troops arrived outside the city of Capua.

After the three left, Maximus fell into deep thought. After drinking water and washing his face, Cossinius found a spot and lay down.  Xiang Bingbing giggled, “You want to go with Yuan Yuan and Youxi, don’t you?” Support the translator by reading @ gemnovels ,com

Yukino seemed to have a favorable impression of her. Perhaps, with her words, she is implying that she doesn’t need any further probing.  “That’s right.”
Mei Fang didn’t deny it. “We’ve never had a spring outing back home. If we could experience it together, that would be great.” Baimei County was a small county, and the senior officer immediately recognized some of the people as local officials. Why'd you say?

In this world, paper books were extremely valuable and considered treasures. Yes, the leftover parts after harvesting the barley ears.  Wan Chaoxiong shook his head, “In Jiangcheng, only elementary schools organize collective spring outings. Besides, our high school has too many students in each grade. Unless it’s a practical activity, there usually aren’t collective outings. However, if the destinations are the same, there have been cases where classes join together, but that requires coordination between the class committees and homeroom teachers.” After a while, the Roman legion completed its formation but remained stationary. m… when I left, it was about three kilometers.      

After reserving a computer at the computer store, the family of three went to the lottery shop together to confirm the exciting.       “I see.” In order to prevent this child from having any regrets about her childhood, Mei Fang naturally wanted to fulfill Xia Yuan’s wishes.  

As the Roman soldiers marched out of the camp, the rebel army also began to move. Good Lord, how can there be so many people?!         Mei Fang often had chances to be intimate with Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi at school, but mostly during breaks and meal times. Being in different classes meant they didn’t see each other often. Participating in organized activities together would be great. Yukino and Aisha, who were sitting across from each other, ordered iced tea. After quickly examining Yukino, the woman called me over. 

After the three left, Maximus fell into deep thought. With this mindset, he galloped alongside the marching column, shouting loudly.   The homeroom teacher Dong Zhongying mentioned the spring outing during the evening self-study session. As per tradition, it would be decided by a majority vote. He provided a few options—the usual spring outing destinations for Jiangcheng NOHS students: Luoyan Island, Ma’an Mountain Forest Park, and Mulan Heaven Lake. They could all be played, but the only downside was that both Resident Evil and Anacondas had Chinese dubs. That'd be quite a favor. 

Aisha then lowered her gaze, looking somewhat worried. Her back and voice trembled. And the sound of sniffing could be heard from her.   Luoyan Island is adjacent to East Lake and is a nice wetland park. Ma’an Mountain is great for hiking and breathing fresh air, with the added option of outdoor barbecues. Mulan Heaven Lake offers mountain climbing and scenic water views. However, because it’s farther from the city, it also provides opportunities for camping and watching the sunrise. His parents got married at a young age, and now they were only in their late twenties, not much older than Mei Fang when he died.    

Because platforms can directly receive user payments in real-time, they can first receive the money earned and then distribute it.     Compared to the first two spring outing destinations, students from outlying counties who haven’t explored much of Jiangcheng were particularly excited about camping. Mulan Heaven Lake was the most talked about location, and Mei Fang was very keen on it. In his previous life, his college roommates went camping there, but he couldn’t join them due to financial constraints. After that, during his four years of university and even after graduation, he never had the chance to go. Support the translator by reading @ gemnovels .com

As if indicating that she had finished speaking, Marie fell silent again. But I absolutely refuse to serve a god in this kind of world.  Dong Zhongying delegated the organization of the spring outing entirely to the class monitor, He Luoyun, and the class committee. As the sports committee member for Class 3, Xiang Bingbing also had some say in the matter. Aisha then lowered her gaze, looking somewhat worried. Her back and voice trembled. And the sound of sniffing could be heard from her. 

The results of today’s written exam will be announced one week later. From this elevated position, I swiftly swung my sword mid-air.     “Mei Fang, after school today, ask Yuan Yuan and Youxi where they want to go. Since Youxi was the class monitor of Class 5, if we choose the same place, it will be easier for us to organize a joint spring outing,” Xiang Bingbing suggested. However, Spartacus couldn’t immediately abandon the troops and leave. In the afternoon, the troops arrived outside the city of Capua.

It wasn’t not me who died, but the character I was controlling on the game screen. The excruciating pain seems to come in waves. Okay!   “Sure thing.” Although this happened when Lin Youxi was only three or four years old, she might have recalled this familiar scene. Wait a minute.  

The names Crixus mentioned were all Gaulish gladiators and close friends of his. The entire army formation began to move forward.      During a break in the evening self-study session, Mei Fang discussed the spring outing plans with Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi. Both were eager to go on the trip with him. As for the destination, Xia Yuan’s response was immediate: Support the translator by reading @ gemnovels dot com

However, Spartacus couldn’t immediately abandon the troops and leave. In the afternoon, the troops arrived outside the city of Capua.  “Let’s go to Mulan Heaven Lake! We can camp there! I heard there are hot springs too. I’ve never been to a hot spring!” Lin Youxi didn’t complain on helping the homeroom teacher. After making a list, she poked Mei Fang with a pen. Bro! We’re leaving!   

Lin Youxi didn’t complain on helping the homeroom teacher. After making a list, she poked Mei Fang with a pen. Bro! We’re leaving!     Mei Fang frowned, “Who told you there are hot springs? Mulan Heaven Lake doesn’t have any hot springs. The whole of Jiangcheng doesn’t have hot springs. You’d have to go to Xianning for that.” His parents got married at a young age, and now they were only in their late twenties, not much older than Mei Fang when he died.    

They could all be played, but the only downside was that both Resident Evil and Anacondas had Chinese dubs. That'd be quite a favor.   It turns out the urban legend about hot springs at Mulan Heaven Lake started circulating around 2012. Mei Fang had often heard this during his university days in Jiangcheng, although no one knew who started the rumor. Although Lin Youxi’s dad is busy, whenever he has time, he always invites Mei Fang to their house and cooks for him. It's okay.      

In this world, paper books were extremely valuable and considered treasures. Yes, the leftover parts after harvesting the barley ears.  “What? How could that be?!” Aisha then lowered her gaze, looking somewhat worried. Her back and voice trembled. And the sound of sniffing could be heard from her. 

Xiang Xiaoxia poked her head out of the kitchen and asked Mei Fang, who was playing video games with her sister. She must be happy.    Xia Yuan was disappointed, but she quickly perked up. “Camping together still sounds fun! Camping is interesting.” When I sat down at the table, everyone had uncomfortable looks and didn’t move to sit. The reason was not explained within the game.  

Xia Yuan showed a bewildered expression, exchanged a few words with her mom, and then hung up the phone. Mei Fang sighed helplessly.   Lin Youxi was not as optimistic as the other two, “The main issue is the cost. The school doesn’t cover expenses. With tickets and camping fees, even with student discounts, it will cost around 200 yuan. While spring outings are voluntary, if too many people choose not to go, it’ll be seen as the class committee’s failure to organize the activity well. People won’t vote for Mulan Heaven Lake in that case.” Now, back to Aisha’s expression. The reason for this change was undoubtedly Yukiho’s presence. The destination I aim for lies ahead.   

After the three left, Maximus fell into deep thought. After drinking water and washing his face, Cossinius found a spot and lay down.  “Phew… I thought it was a bigger problem. If it’s just about money, that’s not a problem!” Mei Fang patted his chest and smiled. “Just tell your classmates that you have relatives at Mulan Heaven Lake who can rent us tents and sleeping bags cheaply.” It seemed that Yukino had grown closer to Aisha. As I watched with interest, numbers in light blue appeared on the back of her hand.   

It wasn’t not me who died, but the character I was controlling on the game screen. The excruciating pain seems to come in waves. Okay!   “Youxi doesn’t have any relatives renting out tents there——” Hearing that the farm had a considerable number of guards, Maximus was not surprised. Vorenus, can we harvest everything in one day? 

Before long, the three hundred soldiers shouted and rushed towards the farm 100 meters away. He saw the situation and calmed down.     “Tsk…” His parents got married at a young age, and now they were only in their late twenties, not much older than Mei Fang when he died.    

When I sat down at the table, everyone had uncomfortable looks and didn’t move to sit. The reason was not explained within the game.    Xia Yuan, realizing what Mei Fang meant, immediately pinched his cheeks and asked, “Are you planning to spend money again? Tell the truth!” The results of today’s written exam will be announced one week later. From this elevated position, I swiftly swung my sword mid-air.   

It was a few days ago when he heard that a new lord would be coming to the neglected lord’s mansion. N-No, it’s… not a problem at all.  “Spending money to create beautiful memories of youth isn’t wasting money at all!” Mei Fang defended with a smile. Although it might be suffocating at times, it was not a big deal to me whether or not Alexis was breathing down my neck. I am Lutz.
