In his eyes, Yu Hao was a terrible athlete who couldn't jump far, so what's going on now?

Unfortunately, he didn't understand that just because he wasn't physically strong or very powerful, it didn't mean he couldn't jump far.

Yu Hao is tall and has long legs, which gives him a significant advantage in this type of event, allowing him to jump so far.

Just then, Zhou Shengchen also jumped out, one meter ahead of Yu Hao.

Everyone was stunned.

Looking at the three people who jumped in front of him, Xiao Haiyang said speechlessly, "How come you all jump so far?"

"Haha, I get it." Lu Qiaochuan laughed knowingly at the last one, "The further you go, the farther you jump!"

After saying that, he confidently began to swing his arms in preparation, and then jumped with all his might.

Then it landed about half a step away from Xiao Haiyang.

Zhou Shengchen and his three companions turned around, gave a disdainful sneer, ignored the guy, and left, leaving Lu Qiaochuan standing awkwardly in place.

Lu Qiaochuan chuckled awkwardly twice, then turned to the test teacher and asked, "Teacher, did I pass?"

Before the teacher could reply, he muttered to himself, "I should have passed!" Then he turned and chased after the teacher.

A few days after catching up with the others, Lu Qiaochuan complained, "Don't you guys think this is hilarious? I was studying ping-pong, and I practiced it with all my might for a whole semester, but in the end, it had absolutely nothing to do with ping-pong in the exam."

"If you're not good at it, no amount of practice will help," Zhou Shengchen said mockingly.

“Zhou Shengchen is right,” Xiao Haiyang agreed with a smile.

Lu Qiaochuan: "..."

Time flies, and soon it was time for the CET-4 (College English Test Band 4).

With about ten minutes left in the CET-4 exam, Zhou Shengchen, Bi Shisan, Xiao Haiyang, Yu Hao, Li Shuci, and Gu Yixin were already standing at the entrance of the exam hall.

Xiao Haiyang gritted his teeth and said, "This year's questions are too difficult!"

After speaking, he looked at Yu Hao beside him. He knew the others well; they were all top students.

"Let's have another match next year!" Xiao Haiyang said to Yu Hao.

Yu Hao scoffed: "Who's going to fight you again next year? I'm sure I can pass this time!"

Xiao Haiyang asked in surprise, "You answered all the questions correctly? Did you understand the listening comprehension?"

Clearly, he was quite familiar with Yu Hao's abilities and didn't believe that the other party could pass.

"I didn't understand a word." Yu Hao turned to Xiao Haiyang and smiled confidently. "But the most important thing in English exams is feeling. I spent ten minutes getting used to the test paper, and whatever I answered was correct..."

Xiao Haiyang: "..."

Staring intently at Yu Hao, Xiao Haiyang patted him on the shoulder encouragingly and said in a deep voice, "Let's fight again next year!"

Yu Hao pushed his hand away in disgust: "Don't touch me, you exam jinx."

At this moment, Xiao Haiyang turned to look at Zhou Shengchen, Bi Shisan, Li Shuci, and Gu Yixin with a questioning gaze: "You guys are such good at studying, why did you hand in your papers early?"

"Don't hand in your papers! You have nothing to do!" The four of them turned to look at him and said in unison.

Xiao Haiyang stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly realized, "So, in a certain field, both academic underachievers and academic high achievers can experience the same feelings."

"Oh, right." Suddenly remembering something, Zhou Shengchen said, "I remember Haiyang, you used to be studying your CET-4 (College English Test Band 4) book every day, how come you still aren't confident about passing?"

Xiao Haiyang sighed: "My English used to be really bad, and it will take time to catch up now."

"Oh!"

---

After the CET-4 exam, exam week will begin soon. However, there is an important event between the CET-4 exam and exam week – the New Year.

Ximen Tea Restaurant.

Ren Yifan was telling his two best friends about his plans for New Year's Eve: "Our class is going to Central Park together on New Year's Eve and eat twelve grapes while the countdown begins."

"Why do we need to eat twelve?" Lu Qiaochuan asked, puzzled.

"It represents the twelve months."

"Why grapes, and not cherries, and not apples?" Zhong Bai asked.

Can you eat an apple in one second?

"What about the cherry blossoms, 4.2?"

"It's a Spanish custom, so don't argue. What I'm saying is that as our class monitor, I have to organize and participate, so you all have to follow me to that place. At midnight, we'll find a place to meet and ring in the New Year together."

“Great! It just so happens that Shuci’s boyfriend is coming to see her that day.” Zhong Bai readily agreed.

"She has a boyfriend?" came the surprised Ren Yifan and Lu Qiaochuan.

"They've had it for a while; they're in a long-distance relationship."

Lu Qiaochuan, Bi Shisan, and others originally planned to stay in their dormitory and play mahjong on New Year's Eve. However, after Ren Yifan reminded Lu Qiaochuan to ask around, they discovered that none of them really wanted to play mahjong and each had their own reasons.

So, on New Year's Eve, everyone went to Central Park.

That day, the wind was blowing a bit chilly. Huangfu Shumin and Zhou Shengchen, dressed in matching outfits, drove towards the park.

Upon arrival, Zhou Shengchen discovered that the place was packed with people; there were people everywhere.

Chapter 132: Why should I explain my actions to you?

As the class monitor, Ren Yifan arrived at Central Park early for this foolish New Year's Eve event, set up two tables and a chair, and bought enough grapes to put on the tables.

To fit in with the festive atmosphere, he somehow got hold of a fluffy little red hat, put it on his head, and sat there alone, feeling depressed.

"Mr. Ren, why do you look so down today?" Just as Ren Yifan was feeling depressed, a familiar voice rang out in front of him.

Ren Yifan looked and saw that it was the president and his wife.

Ren Yifan pointed to the top of his head, where a little red hat hung askew, and a few brownish-yellow tufts of hair stuck out, making him look particularly adorable.

"Although this hat is a bit ugly, it suits you perfectly," Zhou Shengchen said with a smile.

Ren Yifan: "..." Are you being polite?

Zhou Shengchen casually picked a few grapes from the fruit plate in front of Ren Yifan and handed them to Huangfu Shumin, then pulled her inside.

The neon lights flashed and shimmered, creating a dazzling and captivating spectacle under the combined illumination of starlight, moonlight, and lamplight.

The square was packed with people, yet even so, many more people were still surging in from the entrance, shoulder to shoulder. The flowerbeds nearby were full of people sitting, and the fountain in the center was surrounded by people standing.

The music started playing, and the passionate songs were captivating. Many people who came to celebrate the New Year couldn't help but enter and dance a gorgeous dance.

Some of them held hands, some gathered in small groups, and some spread their wings like eagles.

The fountain seemed to be infected by the music, spouting water from its spout. Swaying to the music and illuminated by the lights, the fountain suddenly emerged like a dancing girl, performing a lively Latin dance.

The light shone softly from the water, making the water appear even brighter and more transparent.

The water jets shot to their highest point and then cascaded down, like pearls falling onto a jade plate; the drifting mist transformed into a kaleidoscope of colors; playful children chased and frolicked in the fountain pool...

"Zhou Shengchen, it's so lively!" Huangfu Shumin exclaimed excitedly, shaking Zhou Shengchen's arm.

Zhou Shengchen said with a smile, "Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and today is the last day of 2015. Many people are here to celebrate the New Year, so how can it not be lively?"

"Shall we go ride the Ferris wheel later?" Huangfu Shumin asked Zhou Shengchen with anticipation.

"Whatever you say goes," Zhou Shengchen said, looking at her with doting eyes.

"Hee hee hee!"

The two walked in hand in hand. Suddenly, Zhou Shengchen saw a familiar figure from behind, so he pulled Huangfu Shumin over.

"Zhong Bai!"

Hearing the voice, Zhong Bai turned around: "It's you guys!"

Zhou Shengchen looked at Zhong Bai, who was only wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt and was shivering and rubbing his hands. He was obviously quite cold.

He quickly took off his coat and handed it to him: "Hey, are you freezing? Put this on."

"No, I can't accept it. It's so cold. What will you do if I give it to you?" Zhong Bai waved his hand and refused.

"Alright, put it on. I'm a guy, I'm not afraid of the cold. Hurry up and put it on," Zhou Shengchen said firmly, and then draped his coat over her shoulders.

Seeing her boyfriend give their matching outfits to another woman, Huangfu Shumin was a little unhappy, but seeing Zhong Bai shivering from the cold, she couldn't bear it and advised, "Yes, Zhong Bai, put them on quickly, or you'll catch a cold."

"Well, thank you." Zhong Bai hesitated for a moment, then draped his coat over his shoulders.

"By the way, what are you doing standing here? Why don't you keep going in? There's a Ferris wheel up ahead!" Zhou Shengchen asked, puzzled.

Zhong Bai replied, "I'm waiting here for Lu Qiaochuan and Mr. Ren. We agreed to spend New Year's Eve together. Do you want to join us?"

Zhou Shengchen said, "Lu Qiaochuan will probably have to stay with Lin Luoxue, and Ren Yifan is still handing out grapes. Why don't you come with us?"

Zhong Bai glanced at Huangfu Shumin and shook his head, refusing Zhou Shengchen's suggestion: "No need, I won't be a third wheel for you. You can go with Huangfu!"

Zhou Shengchen said, "Alright then! Be careful here by yourself, and call me if anything happens."

"Uh-huh!"

"Bye-Bye!"

"Bye-Bye!"

Zhou Shengchen held Huangfu Shumin's hand and continued walking inside.

From a distance, Huangfu Shumin suddenly pouted and pinched Zhou Shengchen's waist: "These are matching outfits! Who told you to give them to her without my consent? Explain yourself, why did you give them to her? Have you fallen for her?"

"Why should I, Zhou Shengchen, need to explain my actions to you?" Zhou Shengchen suddenly pulled Huangfu Shumin into his arms and lowered his head to kiss her cherry-like lips.

After a long while, their lips parted. Huangfu Shumin noticed the strange looks from the people nearby and quickly pushed Zhou Shengchen away.

"What are you afraid of? We're in a legitimate relationship." Zhou Shengchen glared at the gossipy people, then pulled Huangfu Shumin along and continued walking forward.

In the context of love, the Ferris wheel symbolizes a fulfilling life together because its shape is a circle.

For couples, going on a Ferris wheel together signifies that they want to spend their lives together and have a happy ending to their relationship.

Under the Ferris wheel, Huangfu Shumin looked at Zhou Shengchen with concern and said, "Are you cold? Do you want me to give you my coat to wear for a while? I'm wearing several layers underneath anyway."

Zhou Shengchen smiled wickedly: "Others may not know about my constitution, but don't you know it? This temperature won't freeze me."
