Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts Chapter 213: Team Building Activities

The mountain climbing and camping plan was set for the afternoon. After arriving in the morning, the students would participate in so team-building activities on the nearby grassland. These activities, often dreaded by working adults, were quite new and exciting for high school students experiencing them for the first ti. Unlike the sotis stiff relationships between colleagues, the students were open and enthusiastic, looking forward to the activities.

Horoom teachers Dong Zhongying and Li Xiang assigned the class monitors, He Luoyun and Lin Youxi, to organize the gas. Then they went to a nearby shop to chat. They knew that their presence might make the students feel less free to have fun, but they would not let them out of sight to prevent any accidents.

Classes 3 and 5 were on different floors, so the students didn’t interact much during regular school days. The most common topic of conversation between the classes was the gossip about i Fang, Xia Yuan, and Lin Youxi. After all, the trio often perford together in artistic shows and displayed their close relationship openly, making it impossible not to talk about them.

Today was the first joint activity between the two classes, and the students from Class 3 were more focused on Xia Yuan and Lin Youxi, while those from Class 5 centered their conversations around i Fang.

During the preparations, Lin Youxi, as the host, efficiently coordinated the various tasks, displaying a competent and composed deanor. Even He Luoyun, a tall guy over 1.8 ters, acted like a helper under her direction.

Although Lin Youxi ca from a parallel class, she had consistently ranked in the top 30 of the entire grade, a domain usually reserved for the advanced class and competition class. Thus, even without her “childhood sweetheart” status, she was a very popular topic of discussion. Initially, students from Class 3 worried that Lin Youxi might be as aloof as her appearance suggested, but she turned out to be much more approachable. This was one reason she easily garnered support in Class 5.

As for Xia Yuan, her image and aura more closely matched everyone’s idea of a school beauty, or rather, a campus idol. She didn’t put on airs with anyone, spoke in a friendly and open manner, and laughed freely when she felt like it. Without makeup, she had a very pure, sweet face that exuded the feeling of first love.

This charming girl, who was already captivating enough, beca even more impressive on stage as a talented and charismatic singer.

In fact, ever since Xia Yuan first beca famous for her original song performance at the sumr camp, many students from other schools have co to watch her performances, drawn by her reputation.

Two such outstanding girls might seem unrelated, but they had grown up together since kindergarten. Adding a boy nad i Fang into the mix made their story even more intriguing.

This isn’t to say that i Fang lacked charisma. While he wasn’t as academically brilliant as Lin Youxi or as musically impactful as Xia Yuan, he was still a hot topic at school. Girls, in particular, enjoyed discussing boys from various classes who were handso, smart, talented, and had great personalities.

Although i Fang didn’t interact much with the girls from Class 3 aside from Xiang Bingbing, he got along well with them and didn’t have a bad reputation, which contributed significantly to his popularity.

Before the gas started, Lin Youxi made a speech: “Today is the first joint activity between Class 3 and Class 5. These activities are not about winning or losing; having fun is what matters. If you make new friends, even better.”

She clapped her hands and smiled, “I have a small suggestion. Let’s mix the groups from both classes instead of separating by class, or else it will feel like a sports festival competition.”

Her remark caused a burst of laughter, easing the awkward atmosphere. He Luoyun also encouraged everyone, “Don’t be shy, find a spot and sit down.”

Prompted by the class monitors, the students found seats around the ga area. Xia Yuan, naturally, headed straight for i Fang, bringing Liu Xiaoyu along with her, who sat on the other side.

Lin Youxi urged everyone to sit down from the side. As the event organizer, she seed to have no ti to rest.

i Fang lowered his head and asked Xia Yuan, “What gas did Youxi prepare?”

“They’re all very interesting activities that Youxi and I found together. Just wait and see!” Xia Yuan replied.

The first ga Lin Youxi prepared was the human knot.

“Today, a total of 56 students are participating in the activity. Everyone needs to form groups of 8 people, making 7 groups in total.”

After hearing Lin Youxi’s instructions, everyone quickly got up to find teammates. Xiang Bingbing, who was sitting behind i Fang, ford a group with i Fang, Xia Yuan, Liu Xiaoyu, and several other students.

Lin Youxi continued to announce the ga rules, “Now, everyone needs to hold a group mber’s left hand with your left hand and a group mber’s right hand with your right hand. Rember, it’s left hand to left hand, right hand to right hand. Make sure everyone’s hands are held, don’t be shy, and be active.”

“Left hand to left hand… right hand to right hand… wow, this is awkward!”

i Fang had played this hand-linking ga in his university days and had so recollection of it. Everyone ford a circle, looking for hands to hold. He then skillfully grabbed Xia Yuan’s left hand. Xia Yuan’s right hand was supposed to hold Liu Xiaoyu’s, but Xiang Bingbing suddenly ca in and grabbed it first.

Her left hand was crossed with another girl’s, making the tall Xiang Bingbing feel very awkward.

“Uh, um——”

Since the last person to complete the link would face a penalty, everyone was in a hurry. In the rush, i Fang grabbed another person’s right hand, only to look up and find it was Liu Xiaoyu’s.

…

Liu Xiaoyu, feeling embarrassed after i Fang grabbed her hand, glanced at him, her lips moving as if to speak, but she ended up looking away. This hand-holding had a special aning for i Fang as it reminded him of past events. In his previous life, i Fang had indeed fantasized about holding hands with Liu Xiaoyu, but in this life, it happened by chance in this situation.

For a brief mont, i Fang felt nostalgic. But, it was just a passing thought.

i Fang’s next move was to firmly hold Xia Yuan’s hand.

At this point, Xia Yuan, familiar with the rules, reminded everyone, “Soon, we’ll need to untangle ourselves without letting go and form a circle. If one of us lets go, we’ll lose. We can cross our arms and pull like this—just don’t let go. Letting go ans losing.”

“I definitely won’t let go.”

i Fang smiled and echoed Xia Yuan’s suggestion, also reminding the others, “By the way, I rember Youxi saying there’s a prize for the first place, so let’s aim for that.”

“There’s a prize?!” Xiang Bingbing exclaid in excitent upon hearing this. “What did Youxi prepare? I have to win it!”

“Don’t get too excited. It’s just sothing both classes pooled money to buy. There’s nothing particularly valuable,” Wan Chaoxiong muttered quietly from the side.

“Then I have to try even harder to win the prizes. My money is in there too, huhu…” Xiang Bingbing whimpered.
