Chapter 124 I Forgot My Birthday After Transmigrating
In all honesty, Lin Chen only posted on Weibo to share his happiness.
What he didn't know was that his Weibo post caused a stir among online media.
Not long after Lin Chen made headlines for his participation in the math Olympiad.
Now they've won three more gold medals at the provincial games.
Although it was just a provincial sports meet.
The problem is that Lin Chen also broke a national record!
That would be truly remarkable.
A student with excellent academic performance who could easily be admitted to Tsinghua or Peking University through direct admission has now broken a national record in sports!
If this isn't news, then what is?
This single reason alone was enough to get all sorts of media outlets on the move.
Let's have a sequel to the genius boy Lin Chen.
In the realm of traditional media, the Jinling Evening News, a local newspaper in Jinling City, was the first to benefit.
Taking advantage of their location, the newspaper featured a photo of Lin Chen winning the championship on the front page of the evening paper that day: "Dongjiang Province's Young Talent is a Master of Both Arts and Martial Arts! Breaks the National 400-meter Men's Record!"
Other traditional media outlets, unable to publish the news in print, could only publish similar news on their respective media accounts first.
As for the self-media side, it's even more lively and exaggerated.
Shocking! The national 400-meter record has been broken by a math Olympiad student!
"High scores but low ability? That's definitely not the right word for him!"
"Leaving no room for peers! Having just qualified for the International Mathematical Olympiad, he also broke a national sports record!"
……
With various media outlets rushing to report on it, Lin Chen's name once again topped the trending searches, causing an uproar online.
"I don't want to live anymore! My mom hit me with her phone! Asking me why I'm not as good as Lin Chen! I feel so wronged! (crying)"
"From now on, besides other people's kids, there's another Lin Chen! I'm not going to scroll through Weibo anymore. I won't be able to have a peaceful May Day holiday; my mom's got a whip in her hand waiting for me to study. (crying)"
"Lin Chen won't kill me, but I'm going to die because of him! Who can understand the pain of a physical education student!"
"I understand the person upstairs. My dad just slapped me. He said Lin Chen can break records while taking the math Olympiad, so why can't I? Can I even do it? (doge)"
"I'm not going to be able to get through this May Day holiday. (doge emoji)"
At this moment, Lin Chen was completely unaware of the online buzz surrounding him.
Because at that moment, he was preparing to attend a party.
Although Lin Chen's competition has ended, he should wait until the closing ceremony of this provincial games before he can leave.
However, considering Lin Chen's special circumstances, the Donghai team has granted him leave, allowing him to return to Donghai ahead of schedule.
Just as Lin Chen returned to the hotel to pack his things and prepare to go back, he suddenly received a call from Lu Han.
"Brother Chen! You haven't gone back yet, have you? Hurry up and take a taxi out!"
"What's wrong? You haven't returned to the East China Sea yet?"
Lin Chen was slightly surprised.
Yesterday, when I met with Principal Lin and the others, Principal Lin mentioned that the school only arranged for Lin Chen to stay in Jinling for two days, and that he would return to Donghai as soon as his competition ended.
Unexpectedly, Lu Han and the others had not returned yet.
"He hasn't gone back yet! Everyone in our class is in Nanjing right now, we want to celebrate your victory! Come out quickly!"
After all, it was their good intention, so Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, give me the address, I'll be right there."
A moment later, Lu Han sent the address over.
It's a high-end KTV near Linchen Hotel.
However, when they arrived at the location, Lin Chen was shocked.
He originally thought that there wouldn't be many people celebrating with him, only a few people like Lu Han.
Unexpectedly, the entire Class 1 of Senior 3 was there, plus Teacher Han Yu as their guardian.
Moreover, the private room they booked was an extra-large one, which not only had a singing stage and sofas and chairs that could accommodate more than 40 people in the class, but also facilities such as a billiards table and a bar.
"Are you trying to bankrupt Teacher Han?"
This was the first thing Lin Chen said upon entering the private room.
After all, apart from Han Yu, everyone in the private room was a student, and they didn't seem like they could afford to pay.
This private room is so big, it would probably cost tens of thousands of yuan to book it for one night.
"Me? Don't be ridiculous. Even if I eat myself out of house and home, I still can't pay the bill here."
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Han Yu laughed.
In the end, Chen Xiaoxiao explained it to Lin Chen.
It turns out that Young Master Lu will be paying for everything tonight!
Because this KTV is actually owned by Lu Han's family.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen was completely stunned.
Wang Defa?
So, Fatty Lu's family is really well-off?
He lives in Donghai, yet he owns businesses in Nanjing?
No wonder this kid, with his level of ability, was able to get into the best class at Donghai No.1 High School...
Sensing Lin Chen's gaze, Lu Han immediately retorted, "Brother Chen! Don't think I can't see what you're thinking!"
I got into Class 1 entirely because of my own abilities, okay?!
"Alright, alright! Lin Chen, we're all doing this because of you! Let's get down to business!"
Han Yu clapped his hands, beckoning the students who were strolling in the private room to gather together.
"Main topic?"
Suddenly, the music in the private room was switched to a birthday song.
Immediately afterwards, a food cart was pushed out, on which was placed a huge five-tiered birthday cake.
"Lin Chen, you haven't even forgotten your own birthday, have you?" Chen Xiaoxiao asked from the side.
Birthday?
So today is my birthday?
For a moment, Lin Chen was somewhat bewildered.
Then a look of realization appeared on his face.
Because he had always believed that his birthday was from a previous life.
It wasn't until now that I suddenly remembered that my birthday in this world is actually May 2nd.
Seeing Lin Chen's expression, Lu Han teased:
"I can tell from your expression that you forgot. Lin Chen, I know you're usually busy with studying and running, but thankfully Chen Xiaoxiao remembered your birthday!"
"Thank you, Xiaoxiao," Lin Chen said gratefully.
"Ouch... Dude, the whole class is here, don't be so mushy..."
Lu Han blocked Lin Chen's view and handed him a dinner knife. "Go blow out the candles and cut the cake!"
"Okay okay."
Lin Chen said with a smile.
Looking at the candlelight on the cake in front of him, Lin Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Although he had only been in this world for a short time, looking at the candle in front of him, he felt as if time had flown by.
A lot has really happened in these few short months.
Who could have imagined that he, once an ordinary and unremarkable man, would quickly rise to prominence in another world?
After blowing out the candles, amidst a chorus of cheers, Chen Xiaoxiao, blushing, walked over carrying a box.
"Lin Chen, happy birthday! This is my birthday present for you."
"Ok?"
Lin Chen curiously took the box, and upon opening it, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Chen Xiaoxiao's gift was actually a top-of-the-line Alienware laptop.
Lin Chen remembered seeing an advertisement for this notebook in a magazine in the school library; the price seemed to be at least ten or twenty thousand yuan.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaoxiao gave it to him as a gift.
