As October arrived, the trees on both sides of the village streets rustled with yellow leaves. The coolness of autumn slowly seeped into the air. On such a night, only the bright moonlight and the dim street lamps silently guarded the quiet village streets.
Satisfied, Cheng Cheng tucked herself into the warm blanket and closed her eyes.
After a busy day of studying, she couldn't fall asleep for the first time. Her mind kept flashing with the recent events and all the changes she had made. She poked her head out of the blanket to get some fresh air, then opened her eyes and stared blankly at the empty ceiling.
She could really team up with him and compete with him. In her previous life, she had watched him go to competitions with others time and time again, happily bringing back the trophy…
Only God knew that ever since she was reborn, she had always wanted to get close to the person she had never dared to get close to in her previous life through her own efforts.
However, the closer she got to him, the more nervous and scared she became.
Cheng Cheng didn't know that Jiang Xiwei was standing by the window in the opposite room. Although it was pitch black outside, his heart was clear. The little girl who had been by his side since he was young had once again illuminated his life.
"Cheng Cheng, in this lifetime, we can finally participate in the competition together. I don't have to be like in my previous life. I went to the competition alone, but I couldn't see your shadow when I turned around. I won the trophy, but I didn't want to share it with anyone.”Jiang Xiwei muttered to himself.
The night before, Cheng Cheng was so nervous that she couldn't sleep well because she thought about the knowledge contest the next day. She woke up naturally early the next morning.
Since she was awake, Cheng Cheng didn't want to stay in bed. She got out of bed and spread out the yoga mat in the room to do a set of yoga.
After exercising, she felt a little calmer. She looked at the clock in the room and saw that it was 7:30 pm. She calmly went to the kitchen to steam two eggs, make two omelettes, and heat up two glasses of milk.
"Knock, knock, knock. Xiwei, wake up. It's time for breakfast!”Cheng Cheng made breakfast and went upstairs to greet Jiang Xiwei.
Ever since Cheng Lin and Jiang Tiantian had gone to the county to study, Jiang Xiwei had moved from the third floor to the second floor, worried that Cheng Cheng would be afraid of living alone on the second floor.
"I'm up! Come in!" said Jiang Xiwei, who was sitting in front of the desk.
"It's breakfast time. What are you doing?" Cheng Cheng walked into Jiang Xiwei's room and asked.
"I woke up early in the morning. If you have nothing to do, stay here and organize the study materials for everyone to review!”Jiang Xiwei said.
"It's so hard. Go and have breakfast first. I made your favorite omelet this morning.”Cheng Cheng said to Jiang Xiwei.
It was only 9:30 pm when the two of them finished packing at home. There was still an hour before the appointment with their classmates. The two of them carried their bags and walked to school unhurriedly.
When the two of them reached the teacher's office on the second floor, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
Yu Jiajun's bright smile greeted them. When he saw Cheng Cheng and Jiang Xiwei, he waved at them and welcomed them into the office." Xiwei, Cheng Cheng, you're here? Come in, we've been waiting for you two.”
"You're all early! I thought you guys weren't here yet!" Jiang Xiwei said as he walked behind Cheng Cheng with his backpack.
"We didn't go home, okay?" Xiao Feng said.
"What? Xiao Feng, you didn't even go home? Then why don't you go to my house?!" Cheng Cheng asked in surprise.
"I was afraid that it would be inconvenient." Xiao Feng teased Cheng Cheng and winked at her.
"You're thinking too much. Why is it inconvenient? Come to my house tonight!”Cheng Cheng invited him warmly.
"Alright, since you've already invited me, it would be impolite of me to refuse!”Xiao Feng said.
"Sigh, since Xiao Feng is going, there won't be any more Chen Hao and I, right?”Yu Jiajun jeered at the side.
"I'm going to Cheng Cheng's house, why are you going?”Xiao Feng asked speechlessly.
"Then Chen Hao and I can go to Xiwei's house!”Yu Jiajun looked at Jiang Xiwei eagerly.
"Then let's go. Since one of us is coming, why don't we all come together?”Jiang Xiwei said,
"Yay! Then we'll all go tonight!" Yu Jiajun said excitedly.
"I can go and play, but I won't stay there. My house is on the street, so it's more convenient.”An introverted boy said. He was the class monitor of Class One, Chen Hao. He had been a good student in his previous life.
After everyone had arrived, the discussion about the knowledge contest officially began.
Jiang Xiwei stood in the middle of the office and flipped through the notice materials on the table with his well-defined hands. He pondered for a moment, then looked up at the team members and said,""Let's roughly divide the work first.”
"Three people are needed to enter the competition. The remaining two are responsible for organizing the information and logistics during the preparation of the competition. In addition, each team has two opportunities to ask for help from the other two people outside the competition.”He briefly described the rules of the competition.
Don't ask Jiang Xiwei why he knew the rules of the competition so well. Firstly, the dean had communicated with him in advance. Secondly, when he was in City B, he often represented the school to participate in competitions, so he had a lot of competition experience.
As soon as Jiang Xiwei finished speaking, Yu Jiajun volunteered to raise his hand and shouted,""Xiwei, I'm in charge of logistics! I'm here to hug your thigh!"
Jiang Xiwei looked at him expressionlessly and said lightly,""Then get lost."
"Don't!" Yu Jiajun pleaded. Aren't I ashamed of my inferiority in front of you! Then…even if I were to go on stage, I wouldn't be able to answer any questions.”
Jiang Xiwei scoffed but did not reply.
Seeing that Jiang Xiwei did not object to letting him be the logistics staff, Yu Jiajun chuckled and looked pleased.
Beside them, Cheng Cheng supported her chin with her hand as she watched the two bicker. She found it very refreshing.
Jiang Xiwei was usually cold to outsiders and unfamiliar people except in front of his family. Although he was not stingy with helping his classmates, he always gave people a warm and distant feeling.
It turned out that he would also bicker with people he was familiar with. To be honest, this was the first time she had seen him so lively.
"If you want to choose three students for the competition…you need to know the main points of the question, right?" Xiao Feng suddenly asked.”
Jiang Xiwei looked at her and said,""Jiajun and I took a look at the questions of the knowledge competition in previous years and found that the questions focused on mathematics, language, and some history in junior high school.”
He added,"I plan to do the math myself." I should be able to handle it."
Yu Jiajun nodded his head vigorously. No one was more qualified than him to be in charge of the math questions.
After solving the math problem, it was time for the other two contestants.
Cheng Cheng was in a daze, her chin resting on her hand. Jiang Xiwei's black eyes suddenly turned to Cheng Cheng. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he asked sincerely,""As for Chinese…Cheng Cheng, can you do it?”
Cheng Cheng looked up in panic, feeling her heart beating fast.
Although she had a premonition that they might want her to participate in the competition after Jiang Xiwei finished talking about the key points of the competition, when Jiang Xiwei's gaze landed on her, she still felt an indescribable nervousness that she had never participated in a competition before.
Cheng Cheng pretended to be thinking hard and steadied her trembling voice as she replied,""…Yes, I can."
Jiang Xiwei received Cheng Cheng's response and smiled.""Cheng Cheng, you can definitely do it!" The other students nodded and looked at Cheng Cheng with certainty. Other than Cheng Cheng, who else in the entire grade could score 140 points in Chinese!
In the end, Jiang Xiwei, Cheng Cheng, and Xiao Feng were chosen for the next match. The other two were their behind-the-scenes team, responsible for logistics and data preparation.
