Lin Jin was not originally opposed to physical education. Because she was in good shape, she could effortlessly run several laps and was not at all afraid of running. But now…

There was a time when the task was to run three laps. Granted, she was physically unwell at that time, not only did she have a fever but she was also on her period, which led to her fainting after running just three laps. But would her condition be any better now?

Back then, running three laps was almost equivalent to taking a leisurely walk. But this time, the PE class, according to Xiao Ling, was going to have a one-kilometer test. This was the kind where you run as fast as you can, not like the slower-than-walking night run.

Even the average homebody would end up exhausted on the ground after running a kilometer in a test. Lin Jin doubted whether she would be so tired after running a kilometer that she would simply drop dead on the track.

With a frown of displeasure, Lin Jin heard a noise behind her. She turned around and glanced at Wen Xuan, who had just got off the bed, then sighed heavily.

"I don't want to go to the one-kilometer run in the afternoon PE class."

"If you don't want to go, then don't. It's just a test, right? Be bold, every day can be a holiday" Wen Xuan joked, standing behind Lin Jin. He looked at the comedy video on Lin Jin's computer screen, with his arms crossed, "Weren't you always skipping classes? Why have you stopped recently?"

"If I keep skipping, the teacher won't even recognize that I'm part of the class" Lin Jin said dismissively. To hide various things these days, she had improved her ability to make up excuses, "And this time it's a PE test, okay? It might even count towards the final grade."

"You hardly ever attended PE tests before" Wen Xuan rolled his eyes, glanced at the takeaway box Lin Jin was sitting on, "What did you eat for lunch? I haven't had lunch yet."

"Chicken rice." The moment food was mentioned, Lin Jin immediately became excited, promoting it to Wen Xuan, "The chicken rice from this shop is super delicious, the rice even has shredded meat in it. Plus, the chicken is very tasty and big, only eleven yuan."

"Oh, I ate too much barbecue yesterday, I don't want to eat greasy food today." Wen Xuan shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the balcony.

Lin Jin watched him leave the dormitory, and then the front door opened. Wu Min came in slowly, looking down at her phone.

"We're about to go to PE class, why haven't you changed your clothes yet?" Wu Min looked up at Lin Jin and saw that she was still wearing her homewear, "Class starts in twenty minutes."

"Oh." Lin Jin got up, found her trousers and clothes in the messy closet, held a pile of clothes in her arms and ran to the bathroom on the balcony to change.

The school's physical education class is relatively relaxed. Although Lin Jin hadn't attended many classes for a while, she never missed PE. Typically, a PE class would start with an 800-meter run, which Lin Jin used to handle without any pressure. The PE teacher was also quite tolerant. Normally, PE class would start at 2:20 PM, but all they needed to do was run two laps, do some warm-up exercises, and then play basketball. Typically, class would end at 3 o'clock.

For a two-hour class, the PE teacher would only teach for forty minutes, sometimes it would even end after just half an hour.

However, when PE class began, Lin Jin looked as though she was utterly despondent as she arrived at the track with her roommates.

The school's track was pretty large. One lap was four hundred meters. With all the various facilities around, it looked rather big, at least twice the size of the track at Lin Jin's previous high school.

The PE teacher was a bald, fat man with a big belly. He looked like the type who would pant after running a hundred meters. However, he was a nice person, at least in the eyes of the students. Any teacher who ends class early is a good teacher.

"Lin Jin." As soon as they arrived on the sports field, Chen Xinya spotted her and hurriedly rushed out from the group of girls to her side, "New Year's Eve gala is in two weeks. How are your preparations going?"

"Pretty good!" Lin Jin confidently tilted her head back.

You should know that the reward for the last program assessment was a so-called 'Master's Pill'. Even if she didn't know how effective it was, Lin Jin still confidently believed that she wouldn't embarrass herself on stage.

"That's good. I saw that you didn't ask me to come out for rehearsal recently. I thought you had forgotten about it." Chen Xinya patted her chest, appearing to breathe a sigh of relief, "By the way, the school has organized a rehearsal next weekend. Remember to come. All programs have to be run through."

"I know, I know." Lin Jin had also joined the New Year's Eve program group and had been notified a long time ago, "Speaking of which, why are you girls having class with us?"

"The teacher is out on a business trip, so they arranged a makeup class for today."

The boys' PE class is usually the first class on Friday afternoon, and the girls' class is the second one. Apparently, the two classes are taught entirely differently. The boys generally learn basketball, with the teacher personally demonstrating. The end-term exam also involves basketball shooting and such. As for the girls, they are said to learn yoga...

It was the first time Lin Jin had heard about yoga in PE class.

"Xinya! The teacher's here."

A girl from Chen Xinya's dormitory shouted at her from the group of girls in the distance.

"I'm leaving now." Chen Xinya smiled at Lin Jin and jogged over to line up in front of the female teacher.

"Our teacher is so slow, he's already 25 minutes late." Wen Xuan sat on the sports field grass, yawning incessantly. He seemed to have been playing on his phone until three or four in the morning, only getting up at over one o'clock, nearly two in the afternoon. After hurriedly washing up, he came directly to the sports field without even having time to eat lunch.

"Hey, you over there!"

Lin Jin suddenly heard a teacher shouting. She looked over in confusion and saw the female PE teacher waving at her. "You, girl! Come over for the class, don't hang around there."

"Is she calling me?" Lin Jin's mouth twitched, pretending to be deaf and turning her head away. She sat down on the grass with a bewildered expression. "Wen Xuan, I think she's calling you."

"Don't be silly, you're just deceiving yourself."

"Anyway, Chen Xinya will help me explain to the teacher." Lin Jin heard the teacher call her again, still pretending not to hear. Instead, she lay directly on the grass, leisurely placing her hands behind her head as a pillow and crossing her legs.

And then... the black cat came out to join in the fun.

Lin Jin's face turned as black as charcoal. She pulled out her trembling phone, and on the lock screen of her phone was a notification of a temporary task.

"What are you doing?" Wen Xuan asked anxiously as he watched Lin Jin leave.

"Going to class!" Lin Jin replied grumpily, then honestly ran over to the group of girls.

F*cking task! What else can this black cat do besides stirring up trouble and creating a ruckus?!
