(Unedited)



The next day…

The bright sun is already high up in the sky and the people around the town is already busy doing their chores and starting their day of work.

In the bustling street where people of all kinds are walking and talking, a student wearing the Ogden academy uniform of the dark blue robe is currently walking with a big grin on his face.

He looks like someone who just won the lottery with his grin. Excitement could be seen in his eyes as he walks towards Ogden academy. Although the way he walks looks timid, he did not dare let go of the soft hand that is in his hand.

This young man is Xin Ja who seems to have a very happy day. Last night he has a good night sleep, and was very excited the next morning.

The first time he woke up and prepare to go to school, he directly went to Rou Chenchen's home.

He waited there for almost an hour before Rou Chenchen walks out of the gate and was startled to see the grinning face of Xin Ja.

She could not help but chuckle when she saw the excitement in his eyes.

Yesterday before coming home, Xin Ja confessed his feelings for her. She was really happy and really though that they almost misunderstand each other because of their lack of communication. But luckily everything was fixed and now the two of them have admitted their feelings for each other and became a couple.

While walking to school, Xin Ja brazenly grabs Rou Chenchen's hands. He got this advice from his loyal friend Qing Joming last night.

"If you want your feelings to be closer, you should hold her hand… That is the best way to express your love for her…" he said with a rather confident smile on his face.

Xin Ja looks at his friend and has a hint of doubt on his face. But he could not deny the fact that Qing Joming is good with people.

He has many female admirers in their class and in school, so he thinks that his advice is rather good.

So without hesitation, he grabbed Rou Chenchen's hand. She immediately blushed when this happens and lowered her head as they walk through the streets.

The inconspicuous couple did not attract any attention around them. Because of their shy nature, they dare not lift their head and strut on the streets. Instead, they have their heads lowered while walking.

The scene is like an older brother dragging his younger sister to class.

But the grin on Xin Ja's face could not be replaced and the elation he is feeling deep in his heart.

The face of Rou Chenchen, on the other hand, is already beat red. But she could feel her heart pounding like crazy.

When they were about to reach the school, Xin Ja suddenly stopped. He then turn to the alley and looks at Rou Chenchen.

"I… I will not hold your hand in school so that others will not tease you…" he said with an awkward smile.

"No… it's okay. I… I think we should treat each other like usual. Nothing should change even though we already have a mutual feeling for each other, right? We are still friends other than… than lovers, after all…" she said while stuttering to say the last part.

"You're right… Sigh… This is why I like you. You are very understanding and kind…" Xin Ja said with a slight smile on his face

The two then walks to the school while they were met halfway by Qing Joming and Tung Jo.

"Hey… and what do we have here? Ump…" Qing Joming said with a teasing smile.

But before he could continue his words, Xin Ja has already covered his mouth.

"Do not say anything, okay…" Xin Ja said with a frown.

Qing Joming patted his hand so he released the hand covering Qing Joming's mouth.

"Sigh… If I were you, I would announce to the entire world about my love…" he said with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"You are you and we are we…" Xin Ja retorted.

"Alright, alright… I think I should call you two… the timid couple… Hehe…" Qing Joming teases.

Suddenly while the four are happily chatting, a tall and beautiful senior student walks towards them.

Xin Ja recognizes the woman as Lin Wayin, someone who has a close relationship with Tung Jo.

"Senior…" greeted Tung Jo and the rest.

"Hello… Hahaha… So this is your original crew before senior Hou and rest of the gang joined in…" she greeted and then said with a jubilant smile.

The four showed confusion in their eyes.

"Sigh, I guess you did not know, right? You guys are being branded as the famous four of the freshmen. The war hero, the two genius alchemists, and the brilliant rune apprentice… That is what they call you. I myself only recently knew when one of my classmates in 3rd-year classes asked me why I hang out with Tung Jo…" she said with a smile.

"I did not know that I am hanging out with a famous person… Hihi…" she teases.

"Senior Lin, you're teasing us…" Tung Jo said with a pout.

"Aw… How cute…" Lin Wayin said while she put her arm on Tung Jo's shoulder.

Tung Jo could not help but blush when he suddenly feels the soft skin in his arm.

The atmosphere became awkward, especially the expression of Qing Joming.

"Sigh… Can you guys spare a handsome bachelor like myself…" he said with a dejected expression.

But then he was suddenly shocked when an arm wrapped on his shoulder.

Now Lin Wayin has the two men in her arms while she showed a grin on her face.

Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen was a bit dumbfounded when they saw this.

Lin Wayin's action is not like any conventional women, when Xin Ja looks at Rou Chenchen she showed a helpless smile on her face.

"Senior Lin is known for being outspoken and open. Some guys have taken advantage of her because of this, but they would usually get beaten by her." Rou Chenchen whispered beside Xin Ja.

Then Xin Ja remembers how Tung Jo and Lin Waying met. Maybe those guys think that she is a casual girl that's why they tried to hit on her. And this leads to Tung Jo acting the hero saving a beauty.

The five went their separate ways then they reached the crossing.

"Guys… are you all taking the new Mecha today?" Lin Wayin suddenly asked.

"Yes… off course we are!  See you there senior…" Qing Joming said with a grin.

Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen nodded their heads.

"Alright, bye guys! See you later!" Lin Wayin said while she drags Tung Jo to the runemaster's campus.

The day went by as usual except for some changes in the classes. Because of the additional classes later that day, each campus has adjusted their schedule.

Later that day…

In a newly built temporary stadium, several hundreds of students are going to take the test for two special subjects… the Mecha pilot test and the Mecha engineering and mechanics test.

There are around ten specially constructed rotating chairs in the middle and the students look at them with curiosity in their eyes.

Those who wanted to be a pilot began to line up towards the ten rotating chairs. Meanwhile, those who wanted to be a Mecha mechanic and engineer went towards a classroom.

Then the testing began…

Lin Wayin, Tung Jo, along with senior student Hou Jiang and his crew are already standing in the field when Xin Ja and the rest arrive.

"Hey, little Ja! Long time no see!" Hou Jiang greeted.

His two companions also nodded their heads.

"Senior…" Xin Ja greeted by supping his hands.

"Are you all taking the pilot test or the engineer test?" Lin Wayin asked with an excited tone.

"Of course pilot test…" Qing Joming said proudly.

"Umm… I will take the engineer test…" Rou Chenchen said.

"Oh, so it would only be the two of you that would separate from the group then… Well, enjoy your date!" Qing Joming teases.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback, while Rou Chenchen blushed.

"Tung Jo… How about you? Are you…"

"I will take the pilot test. Although I am interested in Mecha engineering and stuff, I could learn that on my own, But piloting is a bit more exciting, right?" Tung Jo said with a confident smile.

And so the group separated as Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen took the engineering exam.

When Xin Ja enters the room, the teacher in charge immediately recognizes him and waves his hand.

"How could I let you take the exam? You are the creator of these things…" the teacher said in an excited tone.

Rou Chenchen knew of this, so she said to Xin Ja.

"I will line up to take the test, okay…"

Xin Ja nodded his head. He knew that she did not want to get any attention, so he let her line up. In fact, he could ask the teacher to let her take the test while not lining up, but that would cause commotion, so he did not say anything.

When their eyes met, he seems to have already understood what she wanted.

"Is this what you call… connection of the heart…" he thought while shaking his head with a foolish smile on his face.
