Chapter 1226

(Unedited)

The next day…

Xin Ja and Yao Mai Lin needed to return and report to the academy as part of the end of their military service.

With this… the military will recognize their contribution in front of their schoolmates and would then render others to be inspired to join the army of the kingdom.

And of course, Xin Ja, in particular, is needed to be there, as he has rendered a very important contribution to the army.

Xin Ja went to school as usual and on his way, he could see people giving him some looks of confusion as if they knew him from somewhere but could not remember.

Every time he sees a person that would give him this look, he would quickly shift his gaze to another direction so as not to attract any attention.

Soon, Xin Ja arrives at the school gates and saw a familiar figure standing timidly as if waiting for someone.

He walks silently behind that person and showed a faint smile on his face.

He could not deny the fact that he truly missed seeing her.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Rou Chenchen was suddenly surprised upon hearing someone sneaking behind her.

But when she saw who that person is, she could not help but be dazed. His eyes could not help but be glued on that handsome and youthful face before her.

She has been dreaming for the day that she could see him again. Although they would casually share videos of each other and message one another, it is different when she is seeing him in person.

She did not know what to do at this time, as her face just blushed while glancing at him. She suddenly bit her lip and showed a longing smile.

"It's been a while…" Xin Ja said as he suddenly extended his hand to shifts a strand of her hair to the side.

"You still look… beautiful." Xin Ja said with a faint smile on his face.

Rou Chenchen could not help but blush upon hearing the words of Xin Ja. She was actually a bit taken aback as he suddenly became a bit bold to say such a thing to her. She did not know what to say or do… right now… her mind is actually in panic.

"What to do…. what to do… what to do…" she began to think.

"He… touched my hair… he called me beautiful… What should I say?… What should I say?…" she thought as she could not help but look a bit in panic.

Suddenly, in her shy panic, Rou Chenchen suddenly turns around and hugged her bag, and then walked towards the gate.

It was as if she was in a daze while walking, so Xin Ja quickly walked beside her. He would nudge her in the right direction until the two of them were able to enter their classroom. When he saw Tung Jo, he just waved his hand and showed a helpless smile while pointing at Rou Chenchen.

Tung Jo showed confusion in his eyes, but just nodded his head with a chuckle and also headed back to his class.

When the two enters the classroom, everyone's attention was immediately on Xin Ja as people look at him admiringly.

"Hahaha… Well, well… If it isn't my hero friend…" Qing Joming said with a teasing smile on his smug-looking face.

"Sigh… What have you done to our innocent Chenchen… why is she in a daze?" Qing Joming said while looking at the ruddy face of Chenchen.

Upon hearing this, Rou Chenchen could not help but hide her face in her arms while not wanting to look at the people around her.

"Stop teasing her…" Xin Ja said with a helpless smile.

"You are not a true friend…" suddenly Qing Joming said as his wicked little hands began to dance on Xin Ja's shoulder.

"And why did you say that…" Xin Ja said while rolling his eyes.

"Well… If you truly are my friend… Then… you should design me my very own… sparkling and brand new Mecha…" Qing Joming showed a wicked smile on his face.

"Oh… So that's what it is…" Xin Ja played along.

"Hehe… Of course, that was it is…" Qing Joming nodded craftily.

"After you… graduate…" Xin Ja said with a wicked smirk.

The expression of Qing Joming fell as he looked hurt while clutching his chest.

"Xin Ja you traitorous friend… Arrgghh… I'm hurt, I'm deeply hurt… Sigh… No loyalty at all…" Qing Joming said showing a dejected face.

"Shut up… I already told you… after you graduate…" Xin Ja said with a smirk.

"Sigh… We are not friends anymore if you do not make me a Mecha…" Qing Joming said trying his luck.

"Alright then… I would not have to gift you a Mecha after you graduate then… Hehehe…"

"Xin Ja you traitorous bastard…" Qing Joming slumps on his desk as if everything is helpless.

Everyone in the classroom felt helpless upon seeing the interaction between the two. It has been long since they saw this Qing Joming showing his usual liveliness.

In fact, when Xin Ja was not here, he would be silent and serious. And he would always be by Rou Chenchen's side. One could tell that he was really worried about his friend being in the army and at war.

But now that Xin Ja is back, he is also back to his old playful self.

"Alright… Enough playing around… Qing Joming…" a familiar beautiful voice was heard entering the door.

Hou Anqing walks inside and when she saw the face of Xin Ja she showed a faint smile on her face.

"Welcome back…" she said with a proud smile.

Well, how could she not feel proud when her student gives too much honor to the town and even in the entire kingdom?

"Thank you, teacher…" Xin Ja replied with cupped hands.

The class proceeds as usual, but Xin Ja's classmates began to be talkative in their breaks. They would ask him different kinds of questions with regards to the war.

And Xin Ja would just tell them what happened.

Some of the young men began to imagine how honorable it would be if they could be in the war. But they also feel a bit distressed and afraid.

This is because… they have heard that some of the volunteers have not come back. There are many casualties in the town's volunteers, so… although they are excited they also felt fear.

During the afternoon break, all of the students were suddenly called to assemble at the field. Everyone has already known what would happen, so everyone excitedly ran to the field.

They wanted to see the living heroes of their town.

Xin Ja, Yao Mai Lin, and some other students were called to stand at the podium.

Xin Ja felt a bit scared when he realized that he would be standing in front of many people. Although he has faced many enemies in the war, he felt more scared in facing the students in front of him.

The academy held recognition for the bravery and honor the students have given the school. Plus, they also offer their thanks and appreciation to those students who have died in battle.

From what Xin Ja heard, Rou Xueshang who is Rou Chenchen's cousin who was drafted into the army actually died in battle.

It was truly unfortunate, but it seems that Rou Chenchen has taken it lightly. Well, she could not be blamed, that young woman has always bullied her ever since they were kids. Although Rou Chenchen was not happy, she is also not that sad.

Suddenly, Principal Rao Jubao stood up and showed a faint smile on his face.

"As you all have known… One of our excellent students has shown gallantry and bravery in face of combat. He displayed exemplary bravery and creativity… He has caused the enemy to run back to where they came from… and the reason for that is the new military unit… the Mecha unit." Rao Jubao said with a smile on his face.

"And now… that student has come back to us. So in honor of his feat in the war… We will create two new classes to start in the academy… One is the Mecha modification classes… and the other one is the Mecha Training classes."

When the student heard this, everyone shouted in excitement.

Everyone is showing great expectation in these classes as they have seen the power of the Mecha in the war.

Xin Ja has already been informed about this so he is not shocked. He knew that he would be one of the teachers in these classes especially the graduating students along with Yao Mai Lin.

With a helpless smile on his face, he just shrugged his shoulder.

After the assembly, everyone began to disperse and went back to their classes.

As for Xin Ja and his classmates, they did not have any classes for the period as most of the freshmen. This is because the freshmen teachers have been called for a meeting.

When Xin Ja saw the figure of Rou Chenchen he suddenly grabs her hand, and the two walked to a secluded place.

While walking the expression of Rou Chenchen turned ruddy again and her heart keeps on beating wildly.
