Chapter 809: Daily Fight for Favor
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yang thought she would be exhausted after walking a few kilometers, but to her surprise, her stamina proved better than she had imagined.
She observed Gu Jin and Feng Jue. After more than ten kilometers, while others dragged themselves forward, the two seemed to be casually strolling.
Gu Yang couldn’t help but marvel. Was this what it meant to be a Mutant?
No wonder Mutants were barred from international sports competitions; it seemed like cheating.
Hua University’s medical team accompanied them, prepared for any eventuality.
Xiao Yize, like Gu Jin and Feng Jue, kept an eye on Gu Yang’s condition.
Despite being a Mutant primarily in terms of mental strength, Gu Yang had hemophilia, making her physical fitness uncertain. Seeing her condition better than most was a relief.
When they finally returned to the dormitory, it was already four or five in the morning.
Nearly everyone collapsed into bed without a word.
Though tired, Gu Yang felt a lingering excitement after staying up all night.
Leaning over the railing, she watched the trainees disperse under the streetlights, the sky gradually lightening in the southeast.
“The sun is rising.”
Gu Yang said to Gu Jin excitedly, “This was the first time I’ve seen the sunrise in the capital. Too bad those tall buildings blocked the morning sun.”
Gu Jin glanced at her with a small smile. “Yes, the sun is beautiful.”
Hua University gave the new students a day off and even provided specially prepared nutritious meals in the various canteens.
Gu Yang’s schedule was reversed; she slept from morning until afternoon.
When she woke up and checked her phone, it was already past two in the afternoon.
Qiao Manman and Tong Jiayin’s curtains were still drawn, indicating they were still asleep. Gu Yang moved quietly to avoid waking them.
Just then, Gu Jin returned to the dormitory holding two portions of takeaway, offering one to Gu Yang.
Gu Yang’s eyes lit up, and she said softly, “Thank you, Sister.”
Gu Jin nodded in acknowledgment.
After Gu Yang freshened up and ate, she noticed a message from Feng Jue.
Feng Jue: [Are you awake, Sister? Where do you want to go for lunch?]
It was already past lunchtime.
Gu Yang: [I just woke up.]
Feng Jue replied instantly: [What do you want to eat?]
He even sent over a few restaurant recommendations.
Gu Yang: [You haven’t eaten?]
Feng Jue: [I’ll wait for you.]
Gu Yang paused mid-meal, suddenly feeling guilty.
However, she still informed him: [Sister brought me food.]
The “Typing” indicator on the chat interface with Feng Jue abruptly disappeared. There was silence for a few seconds, as if he was contemplating something. Then, he sent a flurry of crying emojis.
They weren’t the usual funny panda faces but adorable cats.
Seeing these pitiful and cute cat emojis, Gu Yang could almost visualize Feng Jue’s forlorn expression.
Gu Yang couldn’t resist: [Should I order takeout for you and have it delivered to the dormitory?]
Feng Jue: [[Obey]jpg.]
Half an hour later.
Gu Jin received a message from Feng Jue. It was a picture of takeout.
She was about to tease him for resorting to ordering takeout alone when—
Dogsh*t: [Sister ordered this for me~]
Dogsh*t: [It’s full of Sister’s love for me~]
Dogsh*t: [Unfortunately, a certain someone doesn’t~]
Gu Jin’s blood boiled as she read it. She immediately challenged him to a duel.
That jerk dared to get cocky, [Xiao Yize is still at Hua University. Are you sure you want to challenge me?]
Gu Jin: [Do you think he’ll take your side or mine?]
