Chapter Fifty-One: Song Tou'er Makes an Appearance

  "You fool actually believes her nonsense." Guo Lili detected the amusement in Sang Hong's tone and thought she had come up with another crazy idea to trick everyone into keeping her company at midnight.

  Lailai suddenly flipped over, put on her pajamas and got up, standing on the ground stretching: "I believe that with her current state, she's in so much pain that she can't lie down. With that intensity of exhaustion, this trick might work. Anyway, I'm awake now, might as well give it a try."

  Liu Na peeked over to see Guo Lili, who turned over and fell asleep facing the inside: "You bunch of lunatics, tomorrow morning we have to carry heavy loads and trek through the wilderness, so stop messing around and go to sleep."

  She thought for a moment and then also curled up and lay down.

  "The master says, 'Believe in me and you will have eternal life.'" Sang Hong said with a strange tone.

  "Shut your mouth and stop bothering us." Guo Lili cut her off fiercely, she wanted to sleep.

  Xiang Hong and Lai Lei exchanged a glance, covering their mouths to stifle a giggle.

  He leaned in close to her ear and told her the key to the action, then the two of them started "electrifying" together.

  ……

  At 5 o'clock the next morning, Liu Daqiang blew the assembly whistle. He looked at the dormitory building with one window after another lit up and wondered if it would be possible to let this group of students start carrying heavy loads in just two more days.

  How much weight is needed to start having a training effect and can be smoothly accepted by students.

  To know that 5,000 meters of cross-country training has only been conducted for two days, some people can't even run back in an hour, and this is added to the weight-bearing, it's really difficult!

  Soon he saw the students of the foreign training department quickly forming a team and loudly reporting numbers under Zhao Yibo's command.

  "Reporting to instructor, 1st class of external training department has 30 people, all present. Requesting approval for 5000 meters loaded running with 5 kilograms load!"

  Liu Daqiang suppressed the astonishment in his heart, gave a solemn military salute: "Approved, because it's the first heavy training, the distance is far, please take care of your classmates, and absolutely do not allow anyone to fall behind!"

  "Yes!" The crisp and clear echo reverberated in the quiet dawn.

  Qin Qing, who was standing guard at the school gate, looked in surprise as a neat queue of students from the Foreign Language Department marched out of the school gate.

  This group of people had sturdy backpacks on their backs, shouting loud slogans and walking with vigor.

  He inadvertently swept a glance and actually saw that familiar thin figure in the last row - Sang Hong!

  He took a deep breath and felt that his abdominal muscles, which were injured last night, were slightly sore. This girl was ruthless enough to get back up!

  This temperament, so eccentric and yet exceptionally resilient, filled his heart with shock and amazement. Perhaps, a scientific training program combined with an extraordinary will could really produce something legendary!

  ……

  Qin Qing took out a few points of seriousness and specially assessed some basic physical fitness scores for Sang Hong, starting to intensify training; Sang Hong and her classmates all followed suit, adjusting according to their own data, all training was fully invested in the class, encouraging each other, supporting each other.

  Liu Dazhu also went all out to help them increase their training and test the results, and a month of military training unfolded with great fanfare.

  ……

  The New Year's Eve party arrived as scheduled. The hosting plan that was full of weird and evil ideas surprisingly got approved by the school!

  That evening, Sang Hong wore the black formal dress rented by the school, her hair was styled in a short and cool bob; Qin Qing on the other hand, wore an exquisite crown with diamonds and fresh flowers on her head, and surprisingly, she had on a white puffy skirt with a built-in petticoat.

  Qin Qing's five officials are beautiful, with a sturdy figure and symmetrical skeleton. This dress makes him look strange, but the effect is even more enchanting than Thailand's ladyboys.

  Xiang Hong gazed at his face, which had been softened by treatment, with flying eyebrows and affectionate glances, and felt that he looked more and more like Qin Luoshui, a scoundrel!

  As expected, the whole family is abnormal!

  Qin Qing saw her staring at him, picked up the red program in his hand, and deliberately covered half of his face with a sly smile:

  "Shang Hong, you're enchanted! Don't just stare at me, remember your lines!"

  That bright and charming, tender and shy expression made the Qin Silks surrounding her in the backstage scream one after another, instantly stunning a large group of people.

  Xiang Hong was so scared that she had goosebumps all over her body, grinding her teeth and rushing over to Qin Qing, waving the single in her hand and violently knocking on his head: "You dare to smile, isn't it disgusting? You almost made me vomit!"

  Qin Qing was running around the big table in the back hall where clothes and accessories were piled up, her skirt fluttering as she went, shouting and scolding in a slow and drawling tone.

  ……

  The school administration, in order to show the folk and student autonomy of this evening party, even cancelled the usual speeches. The school leaders all sat downstairs with their families, and many children were excitedly running around inside the venue.

  The two hosts gradually became familiar with each other through their daily communication and 'training plan', and had a certain degree of tacit understanding between them.

  The evening party went exceptionally smoothly, Qin Qing's cross-dressing female role, stunning attire triggered thunderous applause, so as long as he was on stage, both men and women were boiling with enthusiasm, the moment he opened his mouth, his lines were drowned out by the surging waves of applause and cheers from below.

  So he soon wisely shut up and controlled the scene with a smile; the host's heavy responsibilities, such as reporting, interjecting, and making jokes, all fell on Sang Hong's shoulders.

  Even Lian Sanghong felt surprised, the witty humor, easy and casual teasing, the movements were no longer stiff, and from time to time brought a relaxed smile to the party, she was astonished to find that she actually had excellent eloquence and quick-witted adaptability.

  ……

  Where there are people, there are complicated thoughts and gains and losses. Even under such a successful entertainment feast, some people are happy and some people worry.

  The interaction between the two on stage, the exchange of eyes and the tacit understanding between glances, not only Ouyang Mengmeng's silver teeth were clenched, but also countless boys who worshiped Sang Hong as a goddess had more acidity than sweetness in their hearts.

  No one noticed that during the dinner party, Liu Daoyi quietly sat down in the leader's seat at the bottom of the stage with a burly man.

  Other leaders in the hospital hastily stood up and respectfully asked after him.

  Principal Song Jingzhu waved his hand at them, pointing to the stage, letting everyone continue watching the performance, and patted the position beside him, letting Song Shuyu sit down.

  He said in a low voice with a hint of joking: "It's actually you, kid. Rare guest! I thought you'd even forgotten where the school gate is. Good job finding your way here."

  "Uncle, don't laugh at me this time, I've come specifically to see you."

  Song Jingzhu hummed a low sound and didn't break it, saying in a deep voice:

  "You're back just in time, take some time off and come home with me for a trip. It's not easy to catch you, it's been four or five months since you've been back home, right? The military exercise has everyone at home worried, taking a photo is a way to put their minds at ease; also, your grandfather's birthday is coming up soon, we should have a gathering in advance."

  "Uh-huh, I was thinking the same thing."

  Song Shuwei's mouth responded easily, but as soon as he thought about going home, his scalp felt a bit numb. His nagging mother and stern grandfather were all characters that made him go crazy. If they all got together, wouldn't the birthday preparations turn into a discussion of his marriage like before?

  "Alright, haha!" Song Jingzhu responded with a nod, but couldn't help bursting into laughter.

  Song Shuwei was taken aback, and his gaze drifted aimlessly onto the stage. This welcoming party was really one of a kind.

  Backward flow?

  He stared at Qin Qing, who was dressed as a woman, and felt goosebumps all over his body. He then shifted his gaze to Sang Hong, who was dressed as a man, and his mouth dropped open in surprise.

  He tightly pursed his lips, and the eagle-like eyes flashed with a strange light, staring at that shadow until she disappeared from view behind the stage, before pointing to the stage:

  "Great uncle, just now that male host who played a female role - wasn't he - "
