The Dragon King's Son-in-law
Back to the gym!

A simple award podium was set up in the middle of the field. Hao Ren and the third-ranked runner made their way up to him, but Huang Xujie was nowhere to be found by the organizers.

The announcer had no choice but to announce that Huang Xujie was injured and would not take part in the award ceremony. The girls inside and outside the field muttered between them with worry. The fact was, they did not care if Huang Xujie won first place or not in the match; all they wanted was for Huang Xujie to continue being handsome and cool.

Despite the vacancy at the awards podium, the awards ceremony continued, and Gu Jialing, Chair of the Student Council, handed out the Honored Certificate to Hao Ren and the runner-up to third.

The certificate was merely a symbol, whereas the most interesting part of the award was that the winner of each event would earn 1,000 yuan in cash, the second rank would get 500 yuan, and the third rank will get 250 yuan.

The prize money was prepared to encourage participation in the match. Of course, people like Zhou Liren who knew he was weak would not enter this match just for money.

While Hao Ren received the Honored Certificate and the reward money, Zhao Jiayi was busy collecting the money.

"Quick! Hurry along! Leave your losing money on the bet!" He waved the paper that read the betting note, "Yu Rong, 200! Chen Ke,300! And don't run, Zhou Liren! You also owe me 200!"

The men were both happy and disinclined. On the one hand, they were surprised and delighted that Hao Ren won first place; on the other, they scolded themselves for underestimating his strength.

With the certificate and the reward money in hand, Hao Ren walked back to the stands while talking to Xie Yujia. He looked for Zhao Yanzi and Ling, but found they had already left.

"Zhao Jiay! Where are the girls sitting here?" Hao Ren turned his head and asked Zhao Jiayi who was busy collecting money.

"Oh, they left after you entered the finish line." Zhao Jiayi replied.

Yep….Hao Ren was a little disappointed.

But he immediately styled himself and shouted at Zhao Jiayi, "I won the prize money! I'll treat you all to dinner tonight!"

"Forget it!" Zhou Liren, who lost 200 yuan, shouted sulkingly, "Zhao Jiayi won more than you! Dinner he paid for!"

Hearing Zhou Liren's suggestion, the other defeated men shouted in agreement, "Yes! Who paid Zhao Jiayi!"

Zhao Jiayi was never a stingy person; instead she was the most generous person in the group. He laughed, "Okay! Tonight, let's eat something fancy! I will spend all my winnings to celebrate Hao Ren's victory!"

All agree. After all, they were proud of Hao Ren winning the race and no one cared about their small defeat. Xie Yujia smiled happily at the friendship between the men.

"Chairman of Class, you're coming with us too!" Zhao Jiayi shouted.

"Uh?" Xie Yujia was surprised, "There's no need to take me. You guys have fun !"

"Come on! Come on!" Zhao Jiayi persuaded him excitedly while the others shouted in agreement.

Xie Yujia blushed, "Alright I'll join your celebration. But. You should invite the girls in class too."

He wouldn't feel awkward if he wasn't the only girl among them.

There were only six girls in that class, so Zhao Jiayi waved her hand grandly and shouted, "Good! I invited them all!"

"Next way Aerobic Competition. All participants are expected to enter the field soon! "The broadcaster announces the next competition.

At the moment of the announcement, the rowdy men suddenly became silent while their eyes lit up. Then they howled with pleasure.

"Well, these men.." Xie Yujia sighed helplessly and sat down. Of course, he knew what was on the minds of the men. They pretended to be interested in the Aerobic Competition while they focused their attention on the girls competing.

Hao Ren sat down. He moved closer and closer to Xie Yujia, "Urm, Class Chairman, I want to donate 1,000 yuan prize money to the class.I plan to spend it for dinner, but since now I don't have to pay it …."

Staring at Hao Ren, Xie Yujia cut him off," Why donate it? You won! Besides you won the honor for classes and majors. You deserve that!"

Hao Ren slightly froze looking at his serious expression. "Well, then I'll keep it," he said.

In fact, he felt in deep debt with Xie Yujia for his victory, and donating his prize money to the class was his way of expressing his gratitude.

Meanwhile, Xie Yujia turned her face away from Hao Ren and thought, "Hao Ren is completely different from the others. He's neither greedy nor dirty-minded…"

Heart's pounding. But as he turned again towards Hao Ren, he found him staring at the first aerobics participant from the Management Department entering the field. His mouth was slightly open, and his eyes were twinkling.

"Well, forget…. " Xie Yujia was speechless.

The Aerobics competition is the final event. Beautiful girls with beautiful curves chosen from every major jump and sway following the music. It's a beautiful sight

This thoughtful schedule managed to hold most of the men to the end of the entire match. The match ended with the announcement of the results of the prize amount of each department. Prizes are awarded by the school management team according to the overall achievement of each major in the match.

The students in the stands went one after another.

Zhao Jiayi sent out her invitation and led everyone to the BBQ restaurant.

Except for the two girls who could not attend, four girls, including Xie Yujia, joined the twenty men. The moment they entered the restaurant, they almost filled half the place.

Hao Ren's victory in the long-distance race was unexpected but worth celebrating. As a tribute to Hao Ren, the hero of the day, Zhao Jiayi arranged for Xie Yujia, the pretty pink-faced Class Master, to sit next to Hao Ren.

Beer, grilled meat and pretty girls. All this raises the level of andrenaline of the men. They repeatedly clinked at their beers, and half of the restaurant's BBQs became where they partied.

Under Cao Ronghua's naive-looking persuasion, Xie Yujia drank a few beers. Sitting next to Hao Ren, her face was dark pink and she looked sweet and bright like an apple.

As for Hao Ren, they weren't being lenient to him. Almost everyone came to drink with him. Although it was only beer, Hao Ren began to feel the effects of excessive drinking.

The scene was more like a wedding banquet right before the wedding night than a celebration for Hao Ren's victory.

Half drunk, Hao Ren wanted to send a message to Zhao Yanzi to ask if the trip he had returned to school was safe and if he had reached home. Nonetheless, as he picked up his mobile phone, he suddenly remembered he did not have Zhao Yanzi's number. He patted himself on the head and lamented his drunkenness

"Hey! You're too noisy!"

A rude voice cut through their lively conversation with a loud punch on the table at the end of the room.

Zhao Jiayi and the others stopped talking and looked in that direction.

A muscular man with a short haircut glared at them while holding a glass of beer in his hand.

"It's a public place. If you feel too noisier, you can go somewhere else," Zhao Jiayi turned to that person and replied to him.

As the leader of the dormitory, Zhao Jiayi had always placed Hao Ren under her protection. When he was in high school, he had a big gun in his school and never backed down from anyone.

"Second level, right?" the man looked to Zhao Jiayi while he stood up.

As he stood up, the people in the room saw his unusual height. With a height of nearly one meter and ninety inches, he was one head taller than Zhao Jiayi!

Sensing the infighting in the air, Xie Yujia immediately stood up and called out with her Class Master tone, "Zhao Jiayi, come back! Ignore him!"

However, Zhao Jiayi's motto was to never retreat. He looked at the man fearlessly.

The other men who were eating with the tall man suddenly stood up. Each of them was at least one meter and eighty, and they looked like a bunch of aggressive mountains as they stood together.

Fearing for Zhao Jiayi's safety, the usually timid Zhou Liren, who was the tallest among them, rushed there and stood next to Zhao Jiayi.

Then, the other men from the Hao Ren class walked over there and stood on either side of Zhao Jiayi. Hao Ren was also about to head there, but Xie Yujia caught him with a firm grasp of his hand.

Zhao Jiayi's group did not have an advantage in height, but their number was four times that of their opponents; in the event of a fight, the worst result was a huge loss for both parties

Sensing a fight was about to happen, Xie Yujia shouted, "Come back here! Don't fight!"

But at that time, who cared what he thought?

"You! Are you the hero? " the biggest man with a short haircut suddenly pointed at Hao Ren who was being held back by Xie Yujia.

Xie Yujia looked at the man in surprise and realized they were here to cause trouble with Hao Ren. He twisted his brain and suddenly remembered this man was Bai Zhixiong, a fourth-year student and Vice-Captain of the university basketball team. He was also one of Huang Xujie's best friends.

"Are you here to make trouble with Ren?" while Xie Yujia was racking her brain looking for a solution, Zhao Jiayi saw her true purpose as she directly asked the man.

Although the men in the Mechanical Engineering Department were a bunch of otaku, they supported each other if needed. They always teased Hao Ren, but they would never let anyone disturb him. I won't!"Zhao Jiayi, they came here for me," as Xie Yujia's grip on her hand slightly loosened, Hao Ren released his hand and walked over to it.

He did not want Zhao Jiayi and her other friends to be hurt by it. Since they had come for him, he had no reason to hide.

The big man had planned to intimidate Hao Ren and had not expected that ordinary-looking Hao Ren, daring to face him. The speech he had prepared for this opportunity was now useless. He stared blankly at Hao Ren, trying to find a way out.

As he fell silent, Hao Ren came up to him and said, "If you think we are younger than you and will be an easy target for straying, you are wrong. As a senior, you have nothing to be proud of. Huang Xujie was successful in some areas, but he was feeling too great! He takes too highly of himself and that's why he lost to me."

"You're really arrogant," Bai Zhixiong looked at Hao Ren and said.

Hao Ren shook his head and sighed, "This is not arrogance. I'm trying to negotiate with you. You don't like me, just like I don't like you. However, I don't carelessly make trouble with you, but you think because you're a senior you can make trouble with us."

"There is no point in talking to them. They're making trouble with us; let's fight with them!" Zhao Jiayi shouted from next door. He never liked those important pretenders who preyed on the weak. He was especially unhappy with them as they repeatedly took the basketball court away from him and his friends.

Swuush..

Suddenly a brown basketball flew in from outside.

The ball crossed Zhao Jiayi's head and struck Bai Zhixiong in the face.

As powerful as Bai Zhixiong was, he was unable to resist the sneak attack of the basketball and blood was flowing from his nose.

"Who said you could get out? Back to the gym!" Suddenly a loud scream exploded from outside the door.

Hao Ren turned around and saw a large figure covering the entire door.

"Sister.." an inaudible word jumped out from Xie Yujia's mouth.
