Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 602 School Sports Meet
Because it rained last night, and there was still water on the lawn and playground, the morning exercises were temporarily canceled during the break between the second and third periods this morning.

During this longer break between classes, Lu Mingfei went to the admissions office, which was quite far from the first-year high school building, mainly to ask the teacher in charge of the admissions process if Erii's enrollment process was complete.

The reply I received was that the process was basically complete, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I could bring my documents in the afternoon to complete the registration procedures and also visit the classroom to experience the new environment.

Not knowing whether Su Xiaoqiang was still awake, Lu Mingfei took out his phone from his pocket and sent a text message to Xiaotiannv.

"Are you awake?"

With a ringing sound, Lu Mingfei walked from the teaching building where the admissions office was located all the way to the first-year high school teaching building, but Xiao Tiannv still hadn't sent him a reply. He guessed last night had really worn her out.

"Is Erii awake yet?" Lu Mingfei thought for a moment and then sent Erii another text message.

Erii replied instantly: "I'm up. I brushed my teeth, had instant noodles I bought last night for breakfast, and am now playing Sakura's Wii in the living room. Sakura has a friend named Maruko who traded Dialga for a Shiny Pikachu with me."

Dialga is one of the legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. In the Pokémon universe, it is a legendary Pokémon that controls the power of time. It is extremely rare and is the strongest Pokémon obtainable in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. There is only one Dialga in the entire game.

The version Lu Mingfei bought was Pokémon Pearl, which corresponds to Palkia, Dialga's rival, so Dialga couldn't be caught normally. Although Lu Mingfei spent a long time catching that shiny Pikachu, its rarity naturally couldn't compare to that of a limited legendary Pokémon.

Lu Mingfei remembered this friend named "Wanzi." He had added her by chance after the Three Gorges Incident, when he was playing Pokémon on the Moniahe. At the time, the other person traded a shiny Onix for a regular Onix.

Lu Mingfei didn't think too much about it, only that his friend was quite generous. He texted Erii, "Eri will be able to come to school this afternoon. If the little fairy hasn't gotten up by noon, please give me a call. I'll come home to pick you up."

"it is good."

By the time Lu Mingfei returned to the classroom door, it was almost time for class to start, but the classroom didn't quiet down easily during break. Some students were still chatting, and others were still eating snacks. After all, it was still the first year of high school, and the learning atmosphere wasn't that tense yet.

Liu Miaomiao sat in his seat, chatting with Chen Wenwen. However, to Lu Mingfei's surprise, Lin Huihui was also in the classroom of Class Two, and the three of them were talking about something.

However, upon seeing Lu Mingfei walk in from outside the classroom, Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen seemed to have been activated by radar, their gazes immediately shifting to Lu Mingfei. They waved and smiled sweetly, "Mingfei, you're back! Have you finished all the procedures?"

"Yes, they're almost done."

Lu Mingfei had just nodded when Lin Huihui turned around, blinked at him, and looked somewhat surprised: "Oh, class monitor, you're back from America?"

"I just got back last week."

Lu Mingfei replied, half-jokingly, "Why are you visiting our class again? Anyone who didn't know better would think you transferred to our class."

"They don't visit every day, they only come occasionally! You can ask Miaomiao and the others if you don't believe me."

Lin Huihui pouted, and only then did Lu Mingfei notice that she was holding a bunch of colorful flyers in her arms.

Lin Huihui pulled out one of the flyers and handed it to him. Lu Mingfei took it and saw that it was a promotional flyer for the Shilan Middle School Sports Meet.

"Isn't the school's sports meet next month?"

Lin Huihui began, "The student council needs to mobilize students from each class to help organize the school sports meet. I'm in charge of the first-year students. Your class doesn't have a sports representative, and I assumed you hadn't returned to China yet. Last year, Wenwen was the one who coordinated with the student council for your class's anniversary celebration, so I was wondering if Wenwen would be willing to help this year. Since you're back, class monitor, why don't we leave this to you?"

The statement "mobilizing students from each class to participate in the organization of the school sports meet" sounds very official, but in essence, it boils down to three words: the student council is "conscripting." After all, no student wants to sacrifice their rest time to do odd jobs for the student council.

Lu Mingfei hadn't expected to get work done on his first day back at school. However, he knew that Lin Huihui had already joined the student council of Shilan Middle School and was now working under Chu Zihang. She could now speak fluent Mandarin fluently; it seemed the student council was truly a place that molded people—even a dog could learn to toast if it went in.

However, considering that if he didn't agree, this matter would most likely fall to Chen Wenwen, who was the entertainment committee member, he felt that he was actually doing something for his girlfriend.

Besides, Lu Mingfei had done organizing work for school sports meets before. There wasn't much to do; it was just helping to manage and inventory sports equipment and hang banners.

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei nodded: "Okay."

"Huh, the class monitor is actually so agreeable?"

Holding the flyer, Lin Huihui looked surprised: "When I go to other classes, the class monitors there always drag their feet for ages."

"Wouldn't it be better to just be straightforward? Or should I tug at it a little more?"

"Yes, yes, of course it's good!"

Lin Huihui quickly let go of the hand holding the flyer, grabbed Lu Mingfei's sleeve, pouted, and made a tearful expression.

"Class monitor, you have no idea how miserable I am. I've been busy with this all morning. I've worn my lips out trying to convince two classes! The student council wants me to get all the first-year classes sorted out today. At this rate, I might not be able to finish the task this week."

Liu Miaomiao coughed lightly.

Noticing the two gazes fixed on his back, Lu Mingfei quickly and discreetly pulled his sleeve away from Lin Huihui's hand and said, "Alright, alright, seeing how miserable you are, I'll be lenient."

"Hehe, the class monitor is the best!"

Lin Huihui fluttered her long eyelashes: "Then it's settled. After school this afternoon, class monitor, come to the student council office to find us?"

Out of the corner of his eye, Lu Mingfei glanced at the expressions on Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen's faces and thought to himself that Lin Huihui was indeed a bit too familiar at times, almost causing a family tragedy.

Just as he was about to agree to Lin Huihui's request, the bell rang. It wasn't actually the school bell, but rather the bell signaling the end of morning exercises. In most schools, the break between the second period and morning exercises coincided, and Shilan Middle School was no exception.

However, there was only a five-minute interval between the morning exercise bell and the class bell. After hearing the bell, many students who were playing in the corridor or wandering outside the teaching building immediately rushed back to the classroom.

"Class is about to start, I have to get back to the classroom right away!"

Lin Huihui waved her hand and said, "Then, class monitor, I'll be going now. We can talk about the details this afternoon."

Lu Mingfei waved his hand and said, "Okay."

Lin Huihui left with cute little steps.

Once I got back to school, all sorts of things came my way. But then I thought, isn't that what being a class monitor is all about? Every little thing in the class has to go through your hands.

It seems being a class monitor isn't so easy after all. Lu Mingfei scratched his head, thinking to himself.

At noon, Xiaotiannv didn't come to school either. Therefore, during lunch break, Lu Mingfei, as usual, ate with Liu Miaomiao, Chen Wenwen, and Xia Mi. Beside him, Liu Miaomiao, Xia Mi, and Chen Wenwen chatted happily, while the gazes from behind them were like sharp swords...

For some reason, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little pleased. Indeed, there's no harm without comparison; only after experiencing the dangerous mixed-race incident could one truly appreciate how precious it is to have a girlfriend by one's side.

Even the gazes from behind seemed less jarring and unpleasant, and even somewhat touching.

Lu Mingfei thought to himself with a smug grin, "See? See? No matter how much I resent it, I'm the only one who can kiss, hug, and cuddle with the school beauties of Shilan Middle School."

After returning to his simple daily life from the terrible mixed-race incident, Lu Shenren, who was at the top of the list of those who deserve to be killed, became a little smug.

However, after finishing his meal, Lu Mingfei did not immediately return to the classroom with Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen. Instead, he went to the school gate to pick up Xiaotiannv and Erii.

While eating in the cafeteria, Lu Mingfei received a call from Su Xiaoqiang, who said she had woken up and was getting ready to go out with Erii. Lu Mingfei didn't need to go back to pick Erii up.

Actually, Lu Mingfei thought Su Xiaoqiang could have easily stayed home and rested today, but the little fairy insisted on coming. Knowing his girlfriend's personality well, Lu Mingfei couldn't say much. His girlfriends were all quite stubborn; once they made up their minds, it was very difficult to persuade them to change their minds.

He sat down in the security room and chatted idly with the elderly security guard, casually grabbing a couple of handfuls of sunflower seeds. Lu Mingfei had long since developed the ability to talk to anyone, however casually. Not long after, he received a call from Su Xiaoqiang saying they had arrived.

Lu Mingfei walked out of the security room and saw the taxi that Xiaotiannv and the others were in next to the school gate. Erii just stepped out of the taxi.

Erii stood on tiptoe and waved to Lu Mingfei, who also greeted her.

"You are here."

Lu Mingfei said, looking at the little girl sitting inside the taxi, "I've brought all the documents Erii needs for her enrollment."

"I brought it. It's in my backpack. Do you think I'm that careless?" Su Xiaoqiang said, somewhat annoyed.

For some reason, Lu Mingfei felt that Xiaotiannv seemed to be in a rather fiery temper today, somewhat reminiscent of the wild girlfriend she was when they first met.

Could it be that the ice cream season has ended early and my period has started?
Lu Mingfei thought with some surprise. But something's not right; there should still be a long time to go, especially since he and Xiaotiannv had ice cream last night...

Su Xiaoqiang bit her lip and reached out to Lu Mingfei: "What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and lend me a hand."

Lu Mingfei glanced at Xiaotiannv's legs and then at her hand on her waist. He suddenly realized why Xiaotiannv was in a bad mood today, and quickly reached out to help his girlfriend out of the taxi.

"Didn't I already tell you that you can rest at home today?" Lu Mingfei said, looking at his girlfriend's legs, which were so weak she could barely stand.

"No need. I just sat for too long and my legs are a little numb."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei released his hand from Su Xiaoqiang's support, and the girl immediately collapsed into Lu Mingfei's arms as if her legs had lost all strength.

"ah……!"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "Isn't this a sign that you can't even stand still in battle?"

Su Xiaoqiang buried her face in Lu Mingfei's chest, gritting her teeth fiercely: "You, you definitely did it on purpose..."

Fortunately, it was lunch break time, and there were no people passing by the school gate. No one saw her fall into Lu Mingfei's arms, otherwise there would definitely be gossip flying everywhere tomorrow.

"Shall I take you back to your classroom first?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"……Fine."

Su Xiaoqiang pouted and nodded.

……

After escorting Su Xiaoqiang back to her classroom, Lu Mingfei left the classroom and walked towards Erii, who had been waiting for him in the stairwell.

Erii was looking out the glass window of the corridor. For this yakuza princess, who had long been confined to a small room under the Sheki-Hachi family, everything in the school seemed new and exciting. Besides, Shiran Middle School was, after all, a private aristocratic school, and the campus was indeed quite impressive.

“There are so many people in the classroom who are our age.” Erii picked up her notebook and wrote: “More than I thought.”

"Does Erii think she can adapt to life at school?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I don't know, but I will try my best."

The two walked through the corridor connecting the teaching buildings and headed towards the building where the admissions office was located. It was fortunate that it was lunch break, and most people were in their classes taking a nap, so the empty campus wasn't crowded. This reduced a lot of unnecessary trouble, since Erii's striking red hair and beautiful face were indeed likely to attract attention.

Because I had informed the teacher in advance, there was a teacher on duty in the admissions office. However, after I took out the necessary documents and completed the procedures, the bell rang to signal the end of lunch break.

"She needs to dye her red hair back."

The teacher on duty was an older woman. She glanced at Erii's hair indifferently and said, "The school rules stipulate that we can't dye our hair."

Lu Mingfei said, "She didn't dye it; her hair is naturally red."

The teacher on duty frowned: "Born that way?"

"Yes, she is of mixed race," Lu Mingfei said with certainty.

The teacher on duty hesitated for a moment, looking at the Japanese name "Uesugi Erii" on the enrollment information. After all, she was a foreign student, and she got in through President Su's connections... Erii's image as a well-behaved girl was also very convincing. Besides, disciplinary matters weren't her responsibility, so it was better to avoid trouble.

She nodded: "Okay. Let's leave it at that for now. But it will take some time to process the student ID and take fingerprints. Class is about to start, Lu Mingfei, you should go back to the classroom first. After the new student's fingerprints are taken, I will tell your homeroom teacher to pick him up."
