Chapter 251: Memorabilia

Mu Youyu looked toward the front row where Song Zeyi was adjusting the camera.

The champion team organized by Song Zeyi from each school, with the combined ranking of the two schools displayed behind.

Everyone will know that the true first place this time is the first team.

Mu Xi stepped forward and, with ease, placed the two gold medals in her hand around her sister's neck, then turned to look at her younger brother, her tone tinged with emotion: "Our Xinbao has really grown up, able to act as judge and present us awards."

Mu Xin had a blank expression, merely glancing briefly at the crowd below holding up their phones and continuously taking photos, saying, "There are people down there; just take a group photo and step down."

Mu Xi let out a light laugh, not taking those words to heart at all, turned her head and reached out to Ye Zeli and Lin Yu beside her, saying, "Give them here."

Ye Zeli lifted his eyes lazily, then straightforwardly handed over the gold medal.

Lin Yu originally had no interest in the medal, and upon hearing that, directly shoved it into his hand.

Before Mu Youyu could react, Mu Xi had already hung the two gold medals around her neck again.

Mu Youyu wore eight gold medals alone, with Jiang Liangjin and Mu Xin standing to her left and right, her face bearing a bright smile.

Gu Xingnan and Yu Ci in the back were especially in sync, both making a big "yeah" gesture.

Yu Ci even deliberately tiptoed, looking full of pride, as if the glory of the championship belonged entirely to him.

The four people nearby also gathered their expressions, showing expressions and poses that matched their own personas.

Though their postures varied, they all tacitly yielded the center position to Mu Youyu.

Around her neck hung eight gold medals in dense array, the red silk complementing them, making her bright, pretty little face dazzling, like a little winner cherished by the whole world.

The shutter clicked, freezing this warm moment; the cheers and applause in the hall rang out again, lingering for a long time.

After watching the top three awards, Mu Xin returned to the company, while Mu Xi and Song Lujing successively returned to Nan Feng.

Mu Youyu didn't linger and returned to the classroom together with Jiang Liangjin.

The medals around her neck had already been taken by Jiang Liangjin.

As the two just reached the doorway, they heard a noisy commotion inside; upon listening, everyone was reenacting the recent defense scene.

"As soon as Elder Sister Yu spoke, the judges all nodded and gave her full marks directly!"

"When Brother Jin reported the revenue, the audience was dead silent—seventeen million! That's my yearly pocket money!"

"And Brother Xi's team deliberately kept their numbers lower than theirs!"

"Our Class A is incredibly handsome!"

"Too much praise, too much praise." Mu Youyu curled the corners of her mouth slightly, calmly returning to her seat.

Jiang Liangjin gently placed the gold medal on the table and suggested, "Should we frame it at home?"

Mu Youyu was replying to a message; hearing that, she laughed and said, "Sure."

Bai Yun heard, turned to look at the gold medals on her desk, and said, "Both teams are mostly our own people; don't they want the other six gold medals?"

The two belong to Mu Youyu and Jiang Liangjin.

Saying that, she looked toward Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan in the back row.

Yu Ci noticed the gaze and said, "I don't want it; give it to Youbao."

"He received the award, his father had designated a reward for him—what's a gold medal?"

Gu Xingnan said casually, "No thanks, it's useless; if I put it at home it'll just gather dust."

Bai Yun couldn't help but exclaim, then asked again, "What about the ones next door belonging to Ye Zeli and Lin Yu? Did you also give those to her?"

Mu Youyu put down her phone and said, "They're all Second Brother's, and Ningning also said they wanted to give them to me."

The second place also received a gold medal, only its weight was relatively a bit less.

Xia Chaoyi turned his head, gave her a thumbs-up, genuinely admiring, saying, "In terms of strength, you won."

After school, the four of them discussed where to eat.

Leng Anzhi came over and said they had ordered a cake to celebrate.

Mu Youyu agreed.

The group walked toward the outside of the campus; the shop wasn't far from the school, and none of them thought of taking a vehicle.

Passing by an accessories shop, Mu Youyu stopped in her tracks, staring at the pair of silver star-shaped bracelets in the window for two seconds.

Looking at them like that, they're a bit flashy.

Jiang Liangjin followed her gaze, and without a word pulled her into the shop, telling the clerk, "Wrap that pair up."

Mu Youyu had already withdrawn her gaze, tugged at his sleeve, and asked, "A Jin, why are you buying this?"

The clerk, who often went online and knew the figures in the circle, had long recognized the two of them; her heart raced with excitement.

She hurried forward, skillfully operating the card machine while smiling and introducing, "You two have great taste! This pair of bracelets is the only one in all of C Shi..."

Jiang Liangjin didn't wait for her to finish the introduction, swiped the card, placed one bracelet on her wrist, and put the other on his own.

Their wrists touched, the star pendants lightly tapped together, making a soft sound.

"A championship keepsake." He said in a flat tone, "That way others will know we're a team."

Mu Youyu looked at the bracelet on her wrist, then at the matching one on his, and couldn't help but laugh.

She shook her wrist, the bracelet swayed with the motion, silver light flashing, especially beautiful.

The two were openly affectionate, paying no heed to others; the three following behind didn't know what to say.

Leng Anzhi clicked her tongue twice, then deliberately covered her eyes to tease, "Well, I'm just here as a literal lightbulb; if I'd known, I wouldn't have come with you two, and I got shoved to the back—this treatment is terrible."

Then she understood why, in middle school, Lin Ning and those few would always pull her along when they went out.

Mu Youyu had no reservations at all, instead shifting closer to Jiang Liangjin, nudging his forearm with her elbow, saying, "What's there to fear? It's not the first time we've been like this."

"Fine, fine, I'm convinced by you two."

Leng Anzhi looked toward Yu Ci beside her and whispered, "What's with them..."

She hesitated, held back for a few seconds, then indirectly asked, "Putting it bluntly, what is this?"

"They're still a pair."

What souvenir is that? She thought it was practically a love token.

Yu Ci was chewing on the candied haws he just bought; hearing that, he waved his hand and said, "I don't know?"

Mu Youyu was just joking; she didn't really neglect the girls.

After leaving the accessory shop, she reached out and pulled Leng Anzhi to her other side, smiling and saying, "Let's go, let's go—my brother said he'll cover all the expenses today."

Leng Anzhi was pulled to the front, she smiled and lifted her foot to keep up, saying, "That's very generous."

The five of them stood side by side, blocking the path; Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan had no intention of giving chase, they just leisurely followed behind the three.
