Du Ruo came to the report hall of the previous game, and the two old men were still sitting on the stage, closing their eyes and recuperating, occasionally opening their eyes and picking up the teacup, taking a sip of it, the old god was there.

Teacher Chen sat next to Du Ruo, so nervous that his hands kept playing with the corners of his clothes, and the corners of his clothes were gradually wet with sweat, and he kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm down.

"Teacher Chen, don't be so nervous." Du Ruo quipped.

"Why aren't you nervous at all, like you're fine!" Teacher Chen glared at Du Ruo, who was looking around, "This is a major event related to the honor of the school!" ”

"Teacher Chen, this is your mistake!" Du Ruo showed a righteous look again, and talked about the big truth, "It's a good thing that this first place is not our school, so it shows that the students of the schools behind are also working hard, and it shows that our city is full of talents!" ”

Teacher Chen was speechless, but after thinking about it carefully, he still scolded Du Ruo: "Don't tell me what you have and don't, if you can't get the first place...... Forget it, I'm already satisfied if you can get the top three. ”

"Huh? Why? Du Ruo asked in surprise.

"Alas, I heard that there are a few students in the second and third middle schools who are very good at writing, and they are already well-known in the middle schools of this city." Teacher Chen looked worriedly at the award certificate placed in front of the old man on the stage, and almost wanted to run up to see whose name was written.

"Oh, that's good." Du Ruo smiled and looked at his phone idly.

Time became sticky, slipping drop by drop as students and teachers waited anxiously in various schools.

Finally, the old man on the left side of the stage opened his eyes, raised his left hand, and supported his glasses with his right hand, and finally saw the time clearly, so he picked up the microphone.

"Well, the big guys are all here." The old man's gaze swiped left and right for a moment, then he nodded, lowered his head and continued: "Then next, I will announce the winners of the last on-site essay contest for middle school students, please be quiet." ”

"First of all, I would like to announce the list of 5 finalists, and the finalists will be in no particular order."

"Zhang San, Li Si ......"

The old man on the stage read one name after another unhurriedly, and Mr. Chen's buttocks had already left his seat, supporting the seat in front of him with both hands, and looking nervously at the slow old man on the stage.

"Ahem, alas, the teacher is a young man after all, and his mood is still too impetuous." Du Ruo joked with a smile, and when Teacher Chen heard this, he sat down on the seat, glared at Du Ruo and said, "I really don't know what you think, why aren't you nervous at all?" ”

"Nervousness won't solve the problem, teacher." Du Ruo swiped his phone with peace of mind, "After knowing the result, how to deal with it is the key." ”

"Why do I think you're the teacher?" Teacher Chen gave him a blank look, came back to his senses, and continued to stare nervously at the paper in the old man's hand.

"The above finalists are invited to come to the stage to receive their certificates."

There was a faint movement in the quiet audience, and then five people walked up to the stage with slightly disappointed expressions to receive their awards.

"Congratulations to the 5 students, then next, I would like to announce that the third student is Wu Bicheng from Endeavor Middle School!"

"Whew." The boy named Wu Bicheng who was named let out a sigh of relief, patted his chest, stood up, and ran to the stage.

"Good. Next, the student who won the second place is from Puhui Middle School, Lin Zixuan! ”

After Lin Zixuan happily received the certificate and stepped down, the atmosphere in the audience was about to solidify, and the old man seemed to feel the extremely nervous atmosphere, and deliberately waited for a while.

"Guys, I'm going to announce the winner of the first place." The old man's expressionless face finally had some smiles.

Who won the first place depends on the old man's words now.

"She's from Shulin Middle School."

Teacher Chen was about to jump up, but he actually had a relaxed expression on his face.

"Xu Lanlan!"

Xu Lanlan, who was seated in the same row, looked a little stunned, as if she didn't believe that she could actually win the first place.

"Xu Lanlan, go up and receive the award!" Fang Qingying on the side excitedly grabbed Xu Lanlan's arm and pulled her up.

"Ah...... Ah, good. Xu Lanlan finally came back to her senses, carefully passed through a pair of legs, passed by a pair of staring eyes, and walked onto the stage.

"Congratulations." The old man handed the certificate to Xu Lanlan, and Xu Lanlan bowed deeply: "Thank you." ”

"Senior sister is awesome!" Du Ruo smiled and applauded.

"Whew, it's okay, it's still from our school." Teacher Chen patted his chest, heard what Du Ruo said, and turned to look at him again: "Du Ruo, don't be too sad, this competition is indeed too competitive, and you are still a freshman in high school, so it's okay if you don't win the award." ”

"It's okay, teacher." Du Ruo blinked, "If you can't win the award, it doesn't mean that you can't do it, after all, there are always a variety of audiences for articles." ”

"Well, it's good that you can think so, let's go."

The crowd in the auditorium stood up one after another, ready to leave.

"Huh? Guys, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I'm not done yet. The old man spoke suddenly, and everyone froze and looked at the old man in surprise.

"Alas, the big guys are a little restless, sit down, there is still a bit of an episode in the first place this time." The old man slowly sat back in his seat.

"The first place this time, we judges are in a dilemma between the two articles." The old man said with a kind smile, "So when we really couldn't tell the difference between them and the loser, we mentioned it to a member of the writers' association in our province and asked him to take an idea." As a result, after reading the article, he did not hesitate to put Xu Lanlan's article in the first place, and the other article. ”

The old man paused before he continued, "He said that he should give an extra grand prize." ”

"Grand prize?" The audience exploded and began to chatter about the unprecedented grand prize.

"Won't you...... There is a grand prize this time? ”

"And how good that grand prize winner must be!"

"Special prize...... Teacher Chen suddenly turned his face and looked at Du Ruo.

Du Ruo felt the gaze, raised his head, and looked at Teacher Chen: "Teacher, what do you think I am doing?" ”

The old man smiled and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"So, let me announce that the winner of this unprecedented grand prize spot is."

Looking at the expectant eyes, the old man cleared his throat before continuing: "Shulin Middle School." ”

"Du Ruo!"

Du Ruo's heart suddenly snorted.

"Not bad. Go up. Teacher Chen patted Du Ruo's shoulder, and the smile on his face was very gratifying.

"Oh......" Du Ruo nodded, showing a smile, this feeling ...... Not bad.

Du Ruo walked up to the stage and looked at the old man.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."

Du Ruo took the award and bowed to the old man.

"Your name seems familiar." The old man smiled and said, "It's from Qu Yuan's poem, right?" ”

"Hmm." Du Ruo nodded, "Cai Fangzhou Xi Du Ruo, will be a widow." He remembered the poem very well.

"You're doing a great job. In the future, I will also make this Du Ruo. The old man smiled appreciatively and announced the end of today's award ceremony.

"Thank you." Du Ruo thanked him and walked off the stage, Wang Bin put his arm around Du Ruo's shoulder, laughed heartily and said, "Du Ruo, you won this award today, but you have to treat me well!" ”

"I won the prize, shouldn't you encourage me and invite me to dinner?" Du Ruo also said with a smile.

"Gotta it, let Mr. Chen have a treat! She's going to be so happy today! I have always disliked our literary club, Mr. Chen, you see, not only the first prize in our club, but even the first prize is here, will you still murder us in the future? ”

Teacher Chen also smiled happily: "Okay! I'm having a treat today, for Lan Lan and Du Ruo's sake, I won't scold you in the future, okay? ”

"Hey, hey." Wang Bin and they smiled proudly.

……

"Hee-hee, I knew my Du Ruo was the best!" Xiang Qingmin happily stood on tiptoe and kissed Du Ruo, jumping and jumping, as if he had won the award.

Du Ruo smiled and touched Xiang Qingmin's head dotingly, I really want to continue like this for such a day.

"Boss, I won this essay award, but don't forget that our basketball club still has a game!" The little fat man suddenly came out again, and Du Ruo couldn't help it.

"Why are you every time!" Du Ruo slapped the little fat man's head angrily.

"Hehe, boss, there's no way, our class is so close, I've been following you all the way here." The little fat man sneered.

Du Ruo waved his hand and drove the little fat man home, and took Xiang Qingmin's hand and walked to the intersection.

"You still have games in your basketball club...... When? Can you not participate? Xiang Qingmin said suddenly.

"Huh? It doesn't seem to work, but this is something that all members of the club have to participate in. Du Ruo thought for a while, "It's probably been a long time, in October, when we are in our second year of high school, why don't you want me to participate?" ”

Xiang Qingmin lowered his head and shook his head.

"It's nothing......
