Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 2226 - 2290: Eligible to Compete

I thought it was something big, but it turned out to be such a trivial matter. Shen Fang, the person with the highest authority, if he couldn’t decide, what would be the point? Besides, it’s something that can easily be agreed upon. Never mind a group dance, even if Li Yifei asked to dance solo, it wouldn’t matter.However serious dancing might be, can it be more serious than dealing with a vice dean with just one move? That kind of thing requires a meeting of the party committee to research.

A few words commanded, and everything was ready. This dance even became the last performance of the opening ceremony, right before the official start of the sports meeting announcement.

Chu Xiaoyao and Su Lio could both go on stage, which, after their initial surprise, left them overjoyed.

"Go on, good luck, I’ll record it for you, so everyone at home will be able to see it. Ali, you dance well too, let your grandpa watch," Li Yifei cheered the two girls on.

Chu Xiaoyao was fine, but Su Lio suddenly became a little nervous, with ten thousand people in the stadium staring at them...

"If you two feel nervous, just look at me more, and you won’t be nervous," Li Yifei said.

"Alright, hubby, thank you, I won’t be mad at you anymore in the future!" Chu Xiaoyao said, moved.

"Go ahead, you have a few minutes left. I’ll find a good spot to film for you," Li Yifei said.

The two girls nodded together and went to find the teammates from before. Their teammates were still in a state of confusion; they originally thought they wouldn’t be able to go on stage. They had even returned to their own class areas, but the counselors and secretaries came over to notify them to prepare immediately, saying that the last dance of the opening ceremony would be theirs.

Seeing Chu Xiaoyao and Su Lio, the girls naturally wouldn’t complain; they understood that the opportunity to perform the dance again was thanks to these two.

The girls went on stage, appearing small in front of tens of thousands of spectators. However, daring to come on stage represented a form of courage. Li Yifei gave the two girls a thumbs-up, and they smiled and nodded.

This was a self-choreographed dance with some graceful moves arranged to match their outfits. Chu Xiaoyao was paired with a slightly taller girl, while Su Lio, being a bit taller, was paired with a shorter girl.

The music began, a piece of classical music. Li Yifei had his phone ready to record. The entire dance lasted about ten minutes, with some larger movements that demanded a lot of physical strength. Chu Xiaoyao was fine; Li Yifei was worried about Su Lio, but she performed very well and flawlessly.

The girls in the Literature Department were numerous, and many of them were beautiful. Selecting ten from among them naturally attracted a lot of attention; many guys couldn’t help but shout. Whistles and cheers filled the air, especially when the dance reached its climax, prompting cheers from the entire venue.

At this point, Li Yifei ignored those revealing parts. He guessed that after this, even if the two girls danced again, they wouldn’t choose such outfits.

"My things, I should be the only one to see," was Li Yifei’s narrow-minded thought.

As the music ended, there was a burst of applause. Shen Fang led the applause, relieved. The dance had been performed well; all ten young girls danced with dedication, impressively. He even remarked to several leaders beside him, "I think this dance could represent our school in competitions."

"Competition?" Several leaders were surprised. Every year, there are interactions among various schools, like basketball games and the Provincial University Student Sports Meeting, with singing and dancing competitions. But those have strict limits, with each school only having room for two teams. Just giving a spot like this?

"Yes, there’s enough time to compete—another two or three months, I think. It can be practiced further. Well, we’ll discuss it more later!" Shen Fang suddenly thought, realizing that it needed Li Yifei’s approval first. Talking too big now wouldn’t be wise; if Li Yifei refused, all his efforts would be in vain. To be honest, the dance was decent but not enough for an immediate decision. This decision was also to please Li Yifei.

Li Yifei was applauding too, incidentally uploading the video to the family group for everyone to watch.

The ten girls took their bows and returned backstage, where they found Li Yifei waiting. To these girls, this man in sunglasses was someone they feared and appreciated. Without his arrangement, they wouldn’t have been able to perform now. Originally, they were only supposed to perform as cheerleaders during the game, just to make up the numbers, as people preferred watching the competitions rather than dances in this kind of grand setting.

Although this man in sunglasses was a bit scary, even daring to hit a vice dean.

"Tired?" Li Yifei asked the two girls with a smile.

"A little!" Su Lio replied, her face a bit sweaty. Li Yifei handed her a tissue. Chu Xiaoyao was also sweating. To prevent them from catching cold, Li Yifei had them get into the car immediately and took them back to the dormitory to change clothes before returning.

After the two girls went up, Chu Xiaoyao quickly came down, having changed into sportswear. She ran to the car’s front passenger seat and hugged Li Yifei, kissing him.

"Hmm, someone might see!" Li Yifei kissed her back a few times before breaking away.

"I don’t care; I just want to kiss you. Ali’s still in the shower and won’t be done for a while," Chu Xiaoyao stubbornly said.

"You don’t check, do you? You still smell of sweat," Li Yifei said.

Chu Xiaoyao exclaimed, immediately smelled herself, but didn’t notice anything. Seeing Li Yifei laughing, she realized what was happening, raised her fist to hit him, but stopped midway, unwilling to hurt love, and leaned closer, saying, "Hubby, Xiaoyao knows her mistake. I’ll work hard to change in the future. Please don’t be upset, okay?"

"I’m not upset anymore, hmm, maybe if you kiss me again, I’ll forget what happened today." Li Yifei said.

"Sure, how about five minutes?" Chu Xiaoyao turned her head to look at Li Yifei!

"One kiss will do, save the rest for tonight, so I can get my fill then," Li Yifei said.

"No problem." Chu Xiaoyao lightly pecked his lips like a dragonfly skimming the water, and Li Yifei closed his eyes in satisfaction, saying, "Alright, all the unpleasant things are forgotten."

"Mmm, mmm!" Chu Xiaoyao nodded repeatedly.

While waiting for Su Lio, they checked the group, seeing that several women had already watched the video. They were surprised and praised them, but some were concerned about Su Lio’s health. Chu Xiaoyao replied, "With hubby here, there’s no need to worry. Although I will be more careful in the future and stop Ali from taking risks."

"Luckily, Ali’s condition was good. Xiaoyao danced very well too. Actually, proper exercise is good and can improve health," Li Yifei said.

"Xiaoyao, remember to dance for us when we get home. I didn’t know you could dance," said Xu Shanshan.

"Sure, I’ll dance for you when I get home," said Chu Xiaoyao.

When Su Lio came down, the three didn’t leave school immediately but went to the third floor of the second canteen. Chu Xiaoyao wanted Li Yifei to try the canteen food. Although not as good as what the chefs at home make, they were delicious, and the two often stayed to eat before heading home.

The campus of the University is vast, with three canteens, each occupying a whole building. The second canteen was a huge square building, with four dining areas, three floors, and an underground level, making it four floors. The first floor usually had buns and steamed rolls for breakfast; the second floor had fast food, noodles, and boxed meals; the third floor was relatively pricier, serving stir-fried dishes, akin to a restaurant but quieter. Li Yifei and others found a booth, ordered four dishes, which were considered delicious by both Chu Xiaoyao and Su Lio.

The dishes were served swiftly, and when Li Yifei tasted them, he found them indeed good. He never attended university, so he didn’t know what it felt like, but being among these young, vibrant people, he figured it must feel quite good...

While eating, an idea suddenly struck Li Yifei, though it wasn’t a new idea. In fact, Su Mengxin and others had suggested it around the new year, but Li Yifei hadn’t listened.

They suggested to Li Yifei that he find a way to further his education and earn some credentials. At that time, Li Yifei refused, but now he suddenly felt maybe he should give it a shot.

This suggestion applied not only to Li Yifei but also to every woman in the Li family. Currently, the most educated in Li’s family should be Xu Shanshan, Su Mengxin, and Xu Yingying, but that wasn’t very high. Learning is endless—even in business, the more you know, the easier it becomes to handle challenges.

Most importantly, except for Su Mengxin, who has had experience managing a mega-corporation, even Xu Yingying hasn’t had that experience. As a result, everyone feels increasingly pressured, even as more things are running smoothly...

In short, everyone needs to recharge, but not all at once. So when Chu Xiaoyao and Su Lio decided to resume their studies, others followed suit.

"Hubby? Hubby?" Chu Xiaoyao waved her hand in front of Li Yifei’s eyes.

"Uh..." Li Yifei came back to his senses, seeing both girls looking at him. He said, "Just thinking about something, haha, nothing serious."

"What were you thinking about, smiling so weirdly?" the two girls asked, puzzled.

Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Nothing, just a small thing!"

"But it’s still something, hubby. Tell me, alright?" Chu Xiaoyao began to act coy, a skill only she could wield. Unable to resist, Li Yifei shared his recent thoughts. The two girls’ eyes immediately lit up. Since they were both in the provincial capital, they couldn’t go home every day. They often went home on Friday and returned for classes on Monday morning. Those days could sometimes feel dull, so if Li Yifei could also attend school, it would be perfect.
