Chapter 1401: Litian Becomes a Hot Commodity

"Move aside, move aside! Trying to poach people on my turf? Do you still care about the code of the martial arts world?"

The person pushing the tall guy was a teacher wearing a referee's uniform.

He didn't just push the tall guy; he also glared at him fiercely.

The tall guy wore a fawning smile and spoke in a humble tone, but the words he said didn't give an inch: "Teacher Li, you have to be reasonable. It's fair competition, and if we're talking about first come, first served, I saw these people when they first entered the main gate. This brother looks like my long-lost brother..."

"Stop trying to get close to me. Who doesn't know you? As long as it's a good seedling, they're all your relatives." He gave a look to the students, and the students understood the teacher's intention, surrounding the tall guy in a circle to keep him from getting near Litian.

All three of them were stunned.

What was going on?

The reversal was too fast, so fast it was dizzying.

The three had just recovered from their shock when Teacher Li had already started introducing himself with flattery: "Hello, student. I am Teacher Li from the Physical Education University long-distance running team. Welcome to apply to our school. Our major..."

Shi Ran interjected: "How can you be sure he is a student?"

"This temperament, this appearance, this height... he's definitely my student, no doubt about it!"

Litian really couldn't run away; both of his hands were being held by the teacher, who wanted him to go to his office for a chat.

Today, he had to get things clear no matter what; he had to become his student. He shouldn't fear any difficulties, as the teacher would help him solve them...

Right now, this was definitely one of the few highlight moments in Litian's eighteen years of life!

The feeling of being treated like the center of attention... it felt very unreal, like a dream.

He had never seen his father since he was little and grew up with his mother's hot-and-cold attitude. Although those childhood memories were very blurry, they had cultivated Litian's sensitive nerves.

He longed for others to be good to him, and even the smallest kindness moved him deeply.

Usually at home, everyone in the family was outstanding. He lived under everyone's halo and had never felt that he also had a dazzling side.

Now that the halo was upon him, it left him at a loss.

He followed Teacher Li to the office in a daze.

The tall guy behind them was still clamoring, but it was useless; he was alone and weak, and couldn't snatch anyone from the long-distance running team.

"Bang!"

The door closed and was locked from the inside.

Teacher Li poured a glass of water for Litian and handed it to him: "Student, now you can tell me properly: where did you pop up from?"

This couldn't be blamed on him for not being able to figure it out.

As the top institution in the sports world, although it didn't directly train Olympic champions, most of the excellent athletic seedlings each year were provided by various sports schools.

If there were such an excellent talent in a sports school, it would be impossible for him not to know.

Although he had stopped running when he was a hundred meters ahead just now, if he had finished the run, the championship would undoubtedly have been his!

Litian said: "I am a student at First High School. I just finished the College Entrance Examination, and my ideal is Physical Education University..."

"Good!"

Teacher Li slapped his thigh hard and shouted in approval.

Litian was not timid by nature, but he was still startled by this sudden shout.

The words he had originally prepared to say were also scared away.

"Why did you stop talking?" Teacher Li suddenly realized something and slapped his own forehead hard: "I know, you're worried that your academic score isn't high enough, right?"

"Just go ahead and apply with peace of mind. I have a special recruitment quota in my hands—I'll give it to you!"

Litian shook his head: "No, my score is enough. I want to apply for a major related to water."

From childhood to adulthood, he had a heartfelt love for water, especially the ocean. Litian always had a feeling that he should live in the sea, and that the ocean was his true home.

"Oh, you can just play with water in your spare time. What score can you get on your academic exams?"

"During the fourth mock exam, six hundred points."

"How much?"

Teacher Li jumped up from his chair, eyes wide, in disbelief.

"Six, six hundred and ten points." That's right, this was his true score; he had understated it by ten points just now.

"Heavens! I didn't expect you to be a top student. Six hundred and ten points is enough, more than enough..."

The academic scores of students at Physical Education University were generally abysmal. He hadn't expected that in finding a good seedling, the student would also be so amazing in his academic studies.

Teacher Li had found a treasure, something that happened once in a century, so naturally, he wouldn't let go easily.

He used every beautiful word he had ever known in his life on Litian, insisting that he must come to Physical Education University and get into his department.

Litian agreed in a daze.

Although he didn't even understand why he had agreed, he was quite happy. The feeling of being held in the palm of someone's hand was really good!

The three siblings returned from their trip.

Zichen and Litian were both very excited, but Litian was even more excited.

He kept telling Zirui and Zihan about what he had seen and heard at Physical Education University, talking about how great Physical Education University was.

He was so excited and so engrossed that he didn't even hear his phone ringing.

Zichen reminded him quickly: "Hey, your phone is ringing."

"Ignore it, let's keep talking."

Zihan said: "Second brother, you should answer it. Let's take a break."

They did need a break. Hearing it once was novel, and hearing it a second time was still interesting... but the same things had been told seven or eight times; no matter how good the story was, it was no longer interesting.

Zirui and Zihan were well-bred; they knew their second brother was usually quiet and didn't talk much, so now that he had a rare opportunity to express himself, they listened patiently, even though they had long since stopped wanting to listen.

Reminded by his younger brother, Litian also realized he had been too excited.

He scratched his head in embarrassment, took out his phone, glanced at the screen, and his eyes widened instantly!

He stood up with a start, his little heart thumping wildly.

The call was from Lu Feifei; Lu Feifei had called him?

This couldn't be a dream, could it?

He just stood there stunned, not answering.

It was Zihan who reminded him: "Second Brother, what are you grinning like a fool for? Why don't you answer it?"

Prompted, he hurriedly grabbed the phone and ran!

He ran outside; he couldn't let anyone else hear.

By the time he ran outside the door, the ringing had stopped.

Litian was so annoyed he wanted to slap himself twice.

Too stupid, why hadn't he answered it first and then run out?

He looked up inadvertently, and his face full of disappointment instantly turned into surprise!

Lu Feifei was standing right outside the courtyard gate, clutching her lapels with both hands, head bowed, kicking small stones on the ground.

This time he didn't hesitate; he ran over and stood in front of her: "Lu Feifei, classmate, did you come to find me?"

"Mm, I'm looking for you."

Lu Feifei acted much more poised than Litian; she had been full of hesitation just a moment ago, but the instant she saw Litian, she became composed and graceful.

She said clearly: "I'm asking if what you said about liking me still counts? If it counts, I'm willing to be your girlfriend."

"What did you say? Can, can you, can you say that again?"

Happiness had come too suddenly, so suddenly that Litian dared not believe it was real.

So Lu Feifei repeated it again: "I said, I'm willing to be your girlfriend, are you willing?"

"Willing, willing, I'm willing." Litian nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.

More than willing, there was no need to doubt it at all.

Happiness had come too suddenly, knocking him dizzy all at once.

Litian grinned foolishly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
