Chapter 32: Was This Plan Risky?
Zhao Rui and the others were very surprised. They didn't expect Qian Jiang to agree so quickly. The plan was already halfway to success.
At this moment, looking at Qian Jiang in high spirits, one wouldn't expect that he was in such a state as before.
"I'm going to the toilet first." Qian Jiang ran out as he spoke.
"Class Monitor Zhao, you're really something! Just like that?" Bai Xiaofei looked at Zhao Rui with admiration.
As the team leader, he felt very happy. At least his plan had worked, but he also reminded himself not to be happy too early.
"It's time for lunch break. Let's rest for a while. We still have training in the afternoon," Chi Heng said as he rearranged his sleeping position.
After a few days of high-intensity training, today's training was relatively easy. Everyone was looking forward to the song competition with the female soldiers, but it was canceled because of the last minute meeting of the instructors.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for learning.
After that, Zhao Rui and the others returned to their dorms and finished washing up. Taking advantage of Qian Jiang's absence, they did not change their usual habits and prepared to start the night talk.
"Everyone, we are only starting the first step. We still have things to do next."
"Think about it. What if Qian Jiang fails in his pursuit?" Everyone was stunned.
Needless to say, if he failed in his pursuit and Lan Qing didn't agree, Qian Jiang would definitely quit school and leave this place.
"This..." everyone was speechless.
Zhao Rui laughed out loud, "What? You don't have confidence in him anymore?"
Zhang Cheng frowned and said with a bit of hesitation, "It's not that it's impossible. It's just that I think it's too risky."
However, Chi Heng was still supportive. "It's indeed a bit risky, but can it be worse than this? Qian Jiang has already decided to leave, so we have no other choice but to delay it day by day."
Zhao Rui was very happy. Although Chi Heng's physical strength always lagged behind, he was still quite determined in this matter.
Therefore, Zhao Rui said, "Chi Heng is right. He has already decided to leave. The worst outcome is that he will eventually drop out of school. Why don't we take a gamble? The most important thing is to think of a way to get him to win over Lan Qing."
The few of them began to discuss some details.
Zhao Rui suddenly thought of something and said, "Don't you feel that something is missing?"
They were stunned and looked at Zhao Rui. "What's missing?"
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "The last internal affairs evaluation was also a competition. Why were we so motivated?"
Bai Xiaofei said, "Of course it's for the honor. For the... Oh? I understand."
The others also suddenly understood.
"But, what can we use as an award?" Zhang Cheng was hesitant.
Zhao Rui was the smart one. He said, "The loser will have to wash socks for a year."
"What? A year?"
"Class Monitor Zhao, you must be joking!" Zhang Cheng seemed to have thought of something and said, "Class Monitor, you're betting on two things. Hahaha."
Bai Xiaofei and Chi Heng still didn't understand what Zhang Cheng meant. Zhao Rui and Zhang Cheng looked at each other and smiled.
Zhao Rui said, "Think about it. If Qian Jiang doesn't pursue Lan Qing, what will happen?"
Bai Xiaofei rubbed his chin and said, "Didn't we say it during our discussion? He will be even more disheartened and drop out of school."
Zhao Rui reminded, "If Qian Jiang drops out of school, who will help me wash my socks this year?"
"Oh?" Bai Xiaofei suddenly realized.
Although Qian Jiang loved to cry and didn't have a good physical condition. There were many good aspects to his character. He would definitely keep his word! As long as he promised Zhao Rui, he would definitely keep his promise.
At this moment, Qian Jiang came back excitedly. Zhao Rui immediately told him his thoughts.
"Wash socks for a year?" Qian Jiang raised his voice and asked.
Zhao Rui said, "That's right, wash socks for a year! It's like the banner in the internal affairs evaluation. This time, the winner doesn't have to wash socks for a year. The loser will."
From the beginning, Qian Jiang had always loved Lan Qing. He had been innocent since he was young, and he had never courted girls. Although he had promised Zhao Rui, he didn't know where to start. He was a little excited and a little flustered.
Qian Jiang's mind was muddled. Since she had already agreed to Zhao Rui's bet, he had to accept it.
"Alright, I promise you. But if you lose, then just help me wash the socks for half a year. Take it as compensation for the help you've given me all this time."
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "Deal!"
Bai Xiaofei and the others secretly laughed at the side. This Qian Jiang was really a little childish.
Before they knew it, the lights-off signal sounded. The tired and happy day had come to an end.
Zhao Rui turned his body sideways and closed his eyes as he entered the King of Soldiers' training space to train. After going through the contents of the training for the past few days, with the help of the system, he felt that the current training was not challenging at all. He needed to break through again.
In the next few days, as long as Qian Jiang was not with them, Zhao Rui would start to get a few people to discuss the next plan.
"Ask him to wash my socks for a year is not an ideal plan."
"It's best if he can beat me. Even if I wash his socks for half a year, I'll be happy."
Zhao Rui knew that if Qian Jiang lost this match, he would be very unhappy for a year, even if he promised to wash Zhao Rui's socks for a year.
However, if he could win Lan Qing's heart, it would be different. His life might have a new light.
Zhao Rui thought for a moment and said, "Chi Heng, you and Bai Xiaofei go and find out what kind of girl Lan Qing is. Her interests, hobbies, and so on. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."
After all, with Qian Jiang's character and ability, it was easy to mess up even if he took the initiative to talk to Lan Qing.
"As for me, I really don't have a girl that I like for the time being. Just put on a show. There's no hurry," Zhao Rui said indifferently.
Unexpectedly, these people looked disappointed. They had wanted to see who the class monitor had taken a fancy to.
"He needs help from his brothers even when chasing a girl. I don't have a girlfriend yet, but I have to help someone else get a girlfriend first," Bai Xiaofei said with a self-deprecating smile.
"Sigh, it's not like Lan Qing doesn't have roommates. Maybe we can have a social gathering. Our dormitory will be matched with the four of them," Chi Heng said excitedly, as if he had forgotten his purpose of coming to Odin Academy.
In the evening, when it was almost time for dinner, Chi Heng and Bai Xiaofei finally came back.
"We found out that Lan Qing doesn't have a partner. This is good news."
Zhao Rui nodded and said, "It is indeed good news. And then?"
Bai Xiaofei gulped down a mouthful of water and said, "I'm so thirsty. Listen, listen to me. This girl is not from our province."
Zhao Rui said, "Is there any more?"
The two shook their heads. It was just that.
