Chapter 73: Perversion (asking for monthly ticket!)

September in Yuhang City, although nominally autumn, is still as hot as summer.

Most of the students heading to the cafeteria on Houde Road were still wearing only their school uniform short-sleeved shirts.

The youthful face reflected in Li Luo's eyes made him feel the vitality that he had not experienced for a long time.

If he were asked to walk with three unknown beauties, even with a 35-year-old soul, Li Luo would probably still feel a little uncomfortable.

But if it was Ying Chanxi, Yan Zhusheng and Xu Youyu, whom he had known from his previous life, he would feel quite at ease.

The Affiliated No. 1 Middle School was absolutely unfamiliar to Li Luo.

He had never been here in his previous life.

I know nothing about this institution of higher learning.

It was only when I occasionally chatted with Zhao Rongjun that I got a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg.

And now that he was deeply involved in it, he naturally saw a side that was completely different from what he had imagined.

For example, community activities.

In his memory, there was absolutely no such thing in his high school in his previous life.

But in the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School, although the main clubs are still competition clubs, many students who are good at certain subjects will try to sign up for a subject club to see if they can try the competition route.

But apart from those competition clubs, there are indeed many interest-based clubs.

This was something that Li Luo had never imagined before.

In his mind, the academic pressure in high school when he was there was already extremely high. The teachers encouraged the students all day long and always told them that if they couldn't get into a good university, they would only be able to work in a factory as screwdrivers in the future.

As the number one player in Yinjiang District, the study pressure at the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School would probably be incredibly huge.

So Li Luo could comfort himself in his heart that failing to get into the No. 1 Affiliated High School might not be a bad thing, at least there would not be more pressure in high school.

But now that he has truly experienced the campus life of the No. 1 Middle School, Li Luo suddenly realized something.

Schools with truly high teaching levels may not all be the product of a high-pressure environment.

"Senior." Li Luo turned around and asked curiously on the way to the cafeteria, "I feel that our school is not very strict, there are many clubs, and the courses are not very tight. Will this affect academic performance?"

Xu Youyu didn't expect Li Luo to suddenly ask such a question. He was stunned for a moment, then said, "Maybe it's the atmosphere."

"The students of Affiliated No. 1 Middle School are the best students in Yinjiang District. They all understand the importance of learning."

"If you find that everyone is studying hard, you will naturally feel a sense of urgency and subconsciously follow this atmosphere to study."

"Besides, what's wrong with having a rich club activity?"

"According to our principal, if you participate in more sports and try more hobbies, and enrich your body and mind, you will learn more efficiently."

Principal Wang of the No. 1 Affiliated Middle School is a retired soldier and has a strong military spirit at heart, so it is not surprising that he holds such views.

The group went to the cafeteria to have lunch.

Because of the student union, Xu Youyu had to continue patrolling on site later, so he ate quickly.

But she also said: "Once you join the student union, I can relax and order you around."

"I'm not going in." Li Luo shook his head repeatedly.

He clearly remembered that after he entered college in his previous life, a lot of shit happened in the student union.

But Xu Youyu looked at him strangely and reminded him, "Our school is called a student union, but it's not the same as the student union in universities. It's actually made up of class monitors and league secretaries. So if you become a class monitor, you're automatically a member of the student union."

"???" Li Luo was confused, but then he remembered the class committee election on Saturday and heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good, I don't plan to be a class committee member forever anyway."

"You don't want to be the squad leader anymore?" Ying Chanxi frowned. "You finally got the position, why do you want to resign?"

"The squad leader is so tired, I still like to take it easy."

Anyway, Li Luo has made up his mind not to run for class monitor. Whoever wants to be the monitor can do so.

After hurriedly finishing his lunch, Xu Youyu was the first to say goodbye.

Li Luo waited for Ying Chanxi and the others to finish their meal leisurely, and then they went for a stroll on Houde Road together.

Yan Zhusheng went to the rock club, showed off his skills, and passed the interview smoothly.

Li Luo was free, so he played guitar, but he declined the invitation from the rock club because he hadn't decided whether to join. Then he accompanied Ying Chanxi to visit the literature club, and ran into Hua Xiuxiu and Lin Yuan who were also there.

"Didn't you say you couldn't come?" Hua Xiuxiu asked curiously when she saw Li Luo, "Are you still planning to join us?"

"If she wants to come, I'll just accompany her." Li Luo pointed at Ying Chanxi, and then glanced at the requirements for joining the literature club.

Except for those who have won awards and scored full marks in the high school entrance examination composition, the rest of the students need to pass a simple test before they can officially join the company.

The test questions were indeed simple, just some multiple-choice questions about famous works, such as whether "Dawn Blossoms Plucked at Dusk" is an essay or a novel.

Ying Chanxi had to do a question because he did not participate in the Chinese composition competition or the high school entrance examination in junior high school.

But it's not difficult for her.

After visiting the literature club, Li Luo accompanied her to visit several other competition clubs.

In the end, Ying Chanxi chose the Mathematics Club, responding to the expectations of their class teacher, Mr. Sun.

After walking around, Li Luo finally went to the basketball club and joined with Zhu Yufei and others. He planned to listen to Principal Wang's teachings, participate more in sports, and exercise.

But just as today's club recruitment came to an end and evening self-study began, at the end of the first evening self-study session, someone suddenly came to the door looking for Li Luo.

"Li Luo, someone is looking for you." Hua Xiuxiu, who was near the door, called out to Li Luo, "It's the vice president of the literature club."

Li Luo, who was sitting in the corner by the window, stood up, walked to the front door of the classroom, and met Qin Yawei, who claimed to be the vice president.

"Hello, Li Luo." Qin Yawei smiled and introduced herself, "I'm Qin Yawei, the vice president of the Literature Club. Nice to meet you."

"Uh..." Li Luo was doing his homework at the moment. He planned to finish it in the first two evening self-study sessions so that he wouldn't have to make up homework when he got home and could just write directly. "If it's about joining a club, I would have rejected it directly. Sorry."

"Ah?" Qin Yawei herself didn't expect that the other party would directly and decisively reject her before she even said anything. Her face suddenly changed, "Why don't you join? All the people in our school who got full marks in the essay writing in the high school entrance examination, except you, have already joined the literature club."

"Then I won't be a big problem, right?" Li Luo asked with a strange look on his face. "Anyway, thank you for your kindness. I'll go back first."

"Wait a minute!" Qin Yawei quickly grabbed his arm. "The literature club is usually very relaxed. You just need to submit a manuscript every month. There are almost no other requirements. The weekly pen pal meeting is also voluntary. If you join other clubs, it will not prevent you from joining the literature club."

Under normal circumstances, Qin Yawei would not have been so persistent even if she had scored full marks on the composition in the high school entrance examination.

It’s purely because after the National Day in the second year of high school, the literature club will hold a new election for the president.

According to regulations, students in their third year of high school are required to withdraw from all clubs and focus on their final year preparing for the college entrance examination.

The president of the club will postpone his term until around the National Day of the first semester, when he will hand over his work and elect a new president, and then he will completely withdraw from the club.

Qin Yawei’s current competitor is Xu Youyu.

Although it is just a small recruitment at the moment, it is still a task after all.

Qin Yawei thinks she is not as good-looking as Xu Youyu, and the boys in the club all prefer Xu Youyu. She can only work harder on such small things to have more weight in the competition.

But she never expected that Li Luo would be so disrespectful.

Will I die if I add more?

But Li Luo was a little speechless, thinking, will he die if he doesn't join the literary society?

He pulled his arm out of Qin Yawei's hand, sighed and said, "Senior Qin, I really have no interest in the literature club. You'd better not waste your time here."

Just at this moment, the bell rang and the second evening study session began.

Li Luo waved his hand and returned to his seat. Qin Yawei at the door had a gloomy look on her face. Finally, she could only stomp her feet and go back to her classroom.

……

At 8:30 in the evening, after the second evening self-study get out of class, Ying Chanxi came to find Li Luo to go home.

"Aren't you going to wait for senior sister to go back together?" Li Luo asked when he went downstairs.

"I asked my senior before, and she said she has to deal with the recruitment of new members for the literature club after class and has to go to a meeting. But she reminded you to remember to make a midnight snack when you get home, because she wants to eat fried noodles." Ying Chanxi said, and added, "I want some too."

"...You two are really not afraid of getting fat."

"I'm very thin, okay? You might as well tell your senior sister about this."

"Yeah... indeed."

"Where are you looking at? Pervert!"
