Chapter 187

Fujiwara Kui saw that everyone said so, so she didn't insist anymore.

She bowed to the three of them with an apology.

"Then I won't be polite! I'll come back immediately after I finish the basic training!"

After Fujiwara Kui left in a hurry, only Natsume Chikage, Xuecun Lingyin, and Xiyuanji Qilai remained in the large club room.

A period of time passed.

The club room was finally cleaned up.

Xiyuanji Qilai wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand, put her hands on her hips, and looked around the brand-new room with satisfaction.

From now on, this is their Collection Club!

Xuecun Lingyin was more concerned about the empty bookshelf, calculating what books to put on it in the future.

Natsume Chikage's gaze fell on the sofa that looked quite comfortable, feeling that taking a nap here in the future might be a good choice.

They hadn't finished cleaning for long.

The door of the club room was knocked gently.

The three of them looked at the door at the same time.

The cold and beautiful teacher Jiu Jing Ziyuan was standing there.

Xiyuanji Qilai was a bit surprised.

"Teacher Jiu Jing, why are you here?"

"No matter what, I am your advisor teacher, so I have to come and see the situation." Jiu Jing Ziyuan said, stepped into the club room, looked around, and nodded, "It's cleaned very cleanly, keep it up in the future."

Xiyuanji Qilai responded happily:

"Mm!"

Jiu Jing Ziyuan cut to the point.

"When do you plan to start formal club activities?"

"Have you considered the specific division of labor?"

Xiyuanji Qilai answered seriously:

"Currently... haven't thought about it yet!"

Jiu Jing Ziyuan said faintly:

"Remember to decide as soon as possible."

She turned and asked.

"Regarding the application for club fees, the student council has already notified you, right?"

Xuecun Lingyin nodded.

"Mm."

"We will clean today, and take time to handle the application for club fees tomorrow."

Jiu Jing Ziyuan nodded slightly, expressing approval.

Natsume Chikage raised a question at the right time.

"Teacher, I see other club rooms have refrigerators and heaters."

"Do these also need special application?"

Xiyuanji Qilai was surprised and happy, not expecting Natsume Chikage to ask the teacher directly, the teacher must know the situation as well as the student council.

"Teacher Jiu Jing, I am also very curious!"

Xuecun Lingyin's gaze also turned to the teacher, neither cold nor hot:

"Of course, I am not particularly concerned about this matter."

"But if other club rooms have it, and we don't, it is differential treatment."

"I am very unhappy with this kind of behavior."

Jiu Jing Ziyuan didn't expect the three of them to ask this, and explained:

"It can indeed be applied for."

Xiyuanji Qilai's eyes lit up.

"Does this need to use our department funding?"

Jiu Jing Ziyuan shook her head.

"That's not necessary."

"But applying for these requires your department to have a certain degree of 'feedback' to the school."

"It can be understood as 'performance'."

"Departments with high performance, such as the baseball club, student council, shogi club, track and field club, which can win off-campus honors for the school, as long as they apply, the school will basically approve."

"But for the 'homecoming club', or some clubs that are not very meaningful to the school, even if they apply, the school will not allocate them."

Natsume Chikage understood.

"So that's how it is."

Xuecun Lingyin fell into thought.

"In other words, we need to obtain certain awards or honors?"

Jiu Jing Ziyuan nodded.

"Exactly."

"For example, Student Xuecun, if you were still in the Literature Club, with the 'Literature World Group Portrait Newcomer Award' you won before, it would be easy to be approved if you made such a request to the school."

"But you are now in the Collection Club. The school doesn't understand the positioning of this club, and your award has little relevance to this department."

"Naturally, the school will not approve it."

Natsume Chikage pondered for a moment and came up with an idea.

"But if Student Xuecun wins literary awards again in the future and associates this honor with the Collection Club? Is this feasible?"

A hint of approval appeared in Jiu Jing Ziyuan's eyes.

"Very smart."

"This is possible."

"The school is not short of this equipment money, what it needs is just a reasonable 'excuse'. As long as you have 'performance', no matter what it is, the school is willing to turn a blind eye and increase funding or equipment for you."

"So, if you want to improve the conditions of the club room, carry out club activities well and strive for opportunities to achieve results."

Xuecun Lingyin supported her chin with her hand and fell into thought.

"If this also works..."

Xiyuanji Qilai clenched her fists, full of drive.

"So that's how it is, I understand, Teacher!"

"We will definitely work hard!"

Jiu Jing Ziyuan nodded slightly.

She knew very well that Xiyuanji Qilai and Xuecun Lingyin were extremely excellent students, and if they said they would work hard, they would definitely take action.

As for Natsume Chikage, she didn't have much expectation.

As long as he could study steadily and not make mistakes, she would be very satisfied.

After all, there is indeed a big gap between his grades and talents compared to Xiyuanji and Xuecun, and it is difficult to have expectations.

"Then you work hard, Teacher is leaving first."

"Mm-hmm, goodbye Teacher!"

Not long after Jiu Jing Ziyuan left.

Fujiwara Kui arrived late.

While wiping sweat, she asked energetically:

"Everyone—I'm back!"

"Is there anything else I need to help with?"

Xiyuanji Qilai smiled and shook her head.

"No need, we have already finished cleaning everything."

"Fujiwara-san, you have a lot of sweat, rest well first."

"I'll pour you a glass of water."

Natsume Chikage heard this and also turned to look at Fujiwara Kui.

She was wearing the loose sportswear of the track and field club, and the sweat-soaked fabric vaguely outlined her body curves. ===== CHAPTER 188 =====
