He Hongtao knew Shi Yi was coming.

But he didn't know why.

The Fourth High School students had just come to their school to watch the New Year's Eve gala, and they had already caught someone on stage?

This was really, really...

A bit interesting.

He Hongtao took out his phone, unable to stop himself from laughing as he started recording.

The leaders beside him looked on in confusion.

It was normal for the Eleventh High School students not to know Shi Yi. After all, scoring over 600 was considered a high score in this school, and there were very few people who truly reached that level.

Besides, the students were only ever interested in the school beauties and male gods.

But the teachers and leaders couldn't possibly be unfamiliar with this name.

"From Fourth High, and the uniform is from Class One... Could this be that student who scored 720?"

"Also that Xia Hai Mathematics Competition champion, provincial runner-up."

"If this student doesn't mess up, he'll basically be the top scorer in the national college entrance examination the year after next, or even the provincial top scorer. And even if he takes the exam a year early, he won't be far off."

In schools focused on college admissions, leaders highly valued top students, especially if the other party was from a brother school in the same district, making them even more worthy of attention.

Among them, Shi Yi was especially famous.

Being a competition champion wasn't enough to make him widely known. What made all the leaders know his name was the last Four High Joint Exam.

The Four High Joint Exam was a test set by four top high schools. This alliance had a history of about seven or eight years, with dozens of joint exams.

Among them, in the comprehensive exam after all academic work was completed, only one person achieved a raw score of 720.

Even top scorers in the national college entrance examination had raw scores of 720, but the Four High Joint Exam did not.

This was because the questions from these four high schools were inherently more difficult than ordinary college entrance exams, and were basically targeted training, with extremely high question standards.

So when the scores came out, the high school leaders in Xia Hai, and even Hai Dong, knew of a monster who scored 720 on the Four High Joint Exam.

Looking at the top scorers over the years, very few had achieved this score.

In other words, Shi Yi was leading the Hai Dong second-year high school students by a wide margin.

It was like a sports league where the first place had more than ten points ahead of the second place.

But what was this kind of student...

Doing at Eleventh High School?

Could it be, hanging out with friends?

But who could be friends with this kind of person? Even Sun Bai was twenty points behind him...

"Shi Yi, that very impressive Fourth High student, right?" Although Secretary Han didn't manage teaching much, he still knew this person. After all, as long as you understood even a little bit about Fourth High, you couldn't avoid this name, and Zhang Jianjun.

"That's right," He Hongtao said. "Shi Yi, a little boy whose grades are as solid as his name suggests, taking the lead."

"Does Zhang Jianjun know? They're also holding a gala over there," Secretary Han was Zhang Jianjun's teacher, so he was curious about this.

"He probably skipped class to come," He Hongtao joked.

"Skipping class to come to our school, because of whom? Could it be a young romance?"

As a man, Secretary Han could only think of this.

"Haha, I don't know if it counts as a young romance, but the two do have that kind of feeling."

After seeing Shi Yi, He Hongtao suddenly felt that he and Chen Yuan really had the feeling of destined rivals.

The two were similar in height and contrasting in style.

At the same time, they were both very charismatic.

Possessing the charisma of top scorers in the national college entrance exam.

"Oh, Principal He knows?" Secretary Han looked surprised.

Then, He Hongtao gave a cryptic smile, "You also know this student."

………

"Student Shi Yi, please choose a card that you have in mind, don't tell me, just show it to the camera. Everyone, please don't say it out loud."

The magician was numb, but there was no way, he could only grit his teeth and keep acting.

Just as he was so nervous that his face was twitching, Shi Yi leaned over and whispered, "Which one to choose?"

Shi Yi realized that he seemed to have blocked someone just now.

That person was the plant.

So, the magician should already be drenched in sweat.

Although the people of Eleventh High School had made some unfriendly jokes about my name.

But I should still return the joy of the festival to everyone.

I'm not the kind of person who spoils the fun.

"..." The magician was stunned for a moment, then opened the cards, facing the audience, and covering his mouth, whispered, "Spades 4."

Then, Shi Yi chose Spades 4 and showed the card to the camera.

The gala was also projected on the big screen.

So, everyone knew what number it was at this moment.

But the magician had said not to announce the card earlier, so no one was being a smart aleck at this time.

"Then, please have Student Shi Yi shuffle the cards, shuffle them vigorously."

Thus, Shi Yi cut the cards in front of the camera.

After finishing, he returned the cards to the magician.

"Everyone should know which card it is, Student Shi Yi also knows which card it is, but only I don't know. So, which card is it?"

The magician smiled, then held the cards in one hand, forming an arch, and then under the suspenseful background music, his thumb slightly loosened.

Like a fountain erupting, the playing cards scattered from the magician's hand, scattering like a fairy scattering flowers. After all the playing cards had scattered in his hand, he suddenly reached out to the falling card rain, pinching one of them with two fingers.

The background music stopped abruptly.

Everyone's eyes fell on his hand.

The magician slowly turned the card over, facing the camera, and Shi Yi, calmly said, "Is it this one?"

Instantly, the whole place was boiling.

The dazzling magic trick made everyone excited.

Moreover, it really felt a bit magical.

After all, he was a student from Fourth High School, so he shouldn't be a plant.

"Okay, thank you Student Shi Yi!"

The magician stretched out his hand, inviting him to step down.

Looking at the man's back, the magician was almost in tears.

He really cried to death.

Zhang Zeyu.

You'll be eating Shi Yi's leftovers from now on!

"Yi-ge, here."

Chen Yuan raised his hand, summoning Shi Yi.

Then, he walked over and sat down in the audience.

"Is he really that good? You didn't act as his plant, did you?" Zhou Yu asked curiously.

"Did he give you a wink when you went on stage?" He Sijiao also felt that the magic trick was a bit amazing. The technique was dazzling, and the guy really guessed it.

"No," Shi Yi shook his head, smiling and saying, "A very impressive magic trick. I tried my best to make him not guess it, and shuffled the cards many times."

"Then this magic trick is quite valuable, since there really wasn't a plant," Shen Yating praised.

"The Eleventh High School New Year's Eve gala is so high-level," Liu Chengxi also thought so.

Only Chen Yuan knew that this performance was Shi Yi's gentleness given to the audience of Eleventh High School.

This guy.

He was like a true disciple senior brother from a righteous sect, strong and upright.

Damn it, who's the villain in *Wo Chao*?

Wait, could it be me?

Just then, Shi Yi's phone rang.

"A call?" Chen Yuan asked.

"...My class advisor," Shi Yi was stunned.

"Laughed," Zhou Yu possessed by a mischief-maker, revealed a satisfied smile.

"So scary!" Shen Yating looked nervous.

Wouldn't she and Liu Chengxi also be discovered?

After hesitating, Shi Yi answered, "Teacher, this is Shi Yi."

"Where are you now?"

"I..."

Shi Yi didn't want to lie, but he couldn't say it.

"Are you at Eleventh High School, right?"

Those words made him speechless on the spot, falling into silence, and after a long while, he said, "Do you want me to come back now?"

Then, an especially humble request came, "It's okay, have fun. But, don't let the other students post photos of you participating in the gala at Eleventh High School. The school leaders feel like they've lost face..."

"Mm..."

Shi Yi said this, but at this moment, Chen Yuan, Zhou Yu, He Sijiao, and even Zhou Fu, these people were like taking photos with a celebrity, gathering around him from all directions, taking him as the center, making scissor hands...

"Can you all not post on social media?"

After Shi Yi finished speaking, he looked at the people who had taken the photos and went back to edit their posts, muttering to himself with a good sense of self-awareness, "Looks like it's impossible."

"Eleventh High School is too scary," Shen Yating, who was very empathetic at this moment, said to him. "A cameraman kept staring at us to take photos."

"Is it this one?"

Shi Yi pointed to the cameraman who was pointing the camera at this row of out-of-school students and asked.

Then, the two students from First High School half-covered their faces, feeling very helpless.

You could summarize Eleventh High School with two very simple words—sick.

Three words would be, very sick.

But putting these aside, everyone was still very happy.

After watching together for a while, Chen Yuan went backstage.

Then, it was also the last program.

After the host announced it, the curtain closed.

Then, it slowly opened.

The girls screamed throughout the venue when they saw Chen Yuan.

"Oh my god, Chen Yuan!"

"So handsome, damn it."

"Isn't this too much?"

Every program at the school had funding, but since Xia Xinyu and Chen Yuan were appearing in their school uniforms, there were no expenses.

Therefore, the two were given extra funding for the final program, and the school rented expensive formal wear.

In the winter, He Meng wore a shoulder-baring long dress, which was very elegant.

Chen Yuan wore a neat suit.

His tall figure, perfect curves, and slightly made-up, handsome features all spoke of the man's charm.

*A graceful young master, with skill and cleverness like a god.*

A high school student who could wear a suit so beautifully was naturally sexy.

After he opened his mouth, he could arouse the audience's enthusiastic screams.

At this moment, he was a star shining in the night sky.

Unreachable, yet so desirable.

"So handsome, oh my god."

"I knew he was suitable for wearing a suit."

"He sings so well, and this kind of person is actually in the same class as me."

Xia Xinyu heard everyone discussing her boyfriend, but she wasn't jealous, because for others, a distant star was only a firefly in her fingers.

He had already been caught by me.

He Meng's singing was also quite outstanding.

The combination of "Curtain of Rolling Beads" + Scaroborough Fair was wonderful. "Curtain of Rolling Beads" was a particularly popular ci poem title during the Song Dynasty, and Scaroborough Fair was an English ballad. The periods in which the two were separated were not long, and after being integrated together, there was a sense of echoing across the long river of time and history.

This song, sung by Lin Zhixuan, directly dominated in that episode with many big-name singers.

Now that Chen Yuan had such good singing skills, and He Meng wasn't bad either, the audience naturally had an immersive experience...

However, the flaw was that He Meng's level was only not bad.

This was what Zhou Xun felt was a pity.

However, at this moment, a sentence that He Meng was supposed to sing suddenly transitioned perfectly into a melodious and winding, whistling sound as natural as the wind singing and birds chirping...

For some reason, Chen Yuan changed the song!

But Zhou Xun smiled.

"Ah, amazing, I feel like I'm already selling potatoes in a medieval English market."

"What a great whistle, simply a stroke of genius."

"No, Yuan-shen, what can't you do?"

"Really strong," Liu Chengxi was stunned, not expecting it could be done this way.

Shen Yating, who was on the side, turned to look at Xia Xinyu.

At this time, she looked up, looking at the boy on the stage, her eyes were bright, and her face was filled with a smile of incomparable pride.

It could be seen that she loved him deeply.

"Nice," Shi Yi also clapped his hands with a smile, looking at Chen Yuan, this very good man, full of admiration.

The opening was a passionate carnival.

The ending was like flowing water, quiet and natural.

The gala ended just like that.

Then, everyone who participated in the rehearsals and worked hard to contribute to this grand gala came on stage together for a collective curtain call.

After the curtain call, it was time to take photos with classmates and friends in beautiful clothes.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" He Meng touched her shoulders, and said to her friends from Class 18, "Come take a photo, I'm going to change clothes, I'm going to freeze to death."

The boys from Class 18 then went to Chen Yuan to join in the fun, with Zhou Yu roughly patting him on the shoulder, "Damn it, you even got to wear a suit!"

"It's more than six thousand yuan."

"..." Hearing Chen Yuan's price, Yu-zi quickly retracted his hand, and his expression returned to calm, "Not that great."

"It seems to have come loose..."

"I didn't do it!"

"Just kidding."

"I will definitely kill you, you bastard!"

Liu Chengxi in the audience was just watching them on stage, preparing to find Chen Yuan and Shi Yi to take a photo after this burst of revelry ended.

At this moment, Zhou Fu walked up to them with a single-lens reflex camera, smiling and saying, "Come on, I brought a single-lens reflex camera from home, let's take a photo. That's right, I'm calling you, Shi Yi, Liu Chengxi, and also Yating."

"Me? Oh, okay," Shi Yi got up from his seat, and walked over very cooperatively, although he didn't know what he was going to do.

"Should we wait until you've taken photos with Chen Yuan first..."

Before Liu Chengxi could finish speaking, Shen Yating gently patted him on the shoulder.

He slowly turned his head.

Then, Shen Yating gently used her hand to fix his bangs for him, and after finishing, she also looked at him with starry eyes, smiling and saying, "Go ahead, our male god from First High School."

Even if the world was centered around Chen Yuan alone.

If the spotlight was all on him.

There was always a girl who would tell him that in my world, the protagonist is you.

Liu Chengxi felt Shen Yating's love.

"Let's go."

Then, he got up and grabbed Shen Yating's hand, walking towards the stage together.

"Ah?" Shen Yating was stunned, blushing.

In this way, after taking photos with their friends from their own class.

The saint from First High School, and the saint from Fourth High School, also stood on the stage, finding Chen Yuan to take a photo together.

To Chen Yuan's left was Shi Yi, to his right was Liu Chengxi, and furthest to the right was Shen Yating, standing with Liu Chengxi.

"Xinyu, aren't you going up?" Standing under the stage, Zhou Fu asked curiously before taking the photo.

Then, Xia Xinyu waved her hand in shame, "I feel like taking photos with them will lower the average score, I have a sense of guilt."

"..." Zhou Fu then realized that within this frame, counting the bonus points, the average score of these four people was more than 700.

No, if I take photos of this kind of thing, the single-lens reflex camera will explode!

At this moment, He Hongtao, who was also wearing a suit and looking extraordinary, approached, smiling and saying, "Liu Chengxi, Shi Yi, Shen Yating, right?"

The three people who were named quickly nodded politely.

Then, He Hongtao smiled again and said, "Zhou Fu, take a photo for us."

Hearing her name being called, Zhou Fu was somewhat surprised.

But then she remembered that when Zheng Qi had blocked them at the school gate before, it was the principal who had helped them out of the situation.

At that time, she had introduced her name.

So, he remembered my name after only hearing it once?

This principal is too approachable!

Moreover, the principal is quite handsome!

"Okay," Zhou Fu, who originally had difficulty making friends, was now remembered by the principal, and immediately revealed a smile, especially willing.

"Then, Principal He, you can stand in the middle."

There were a total of five people, and Chen Yuan wanted to give the very center to He Hongtao.

However, the other party didn't want to be as obsessed with the C position as Secretary Han, and smiled lightly, "It's okay, I'll stand next to the national college entrance exam top scorer."

Eh, the dignified principal standing at the very edge?

Just as Chen Yuan thought this, He Hongtao stood between him and Shi Yi.

And when looking at the camera, he deliberately put his hand on the waist of Chen Yuan, who was wearing a neat suit...
