There are many people on the playground lawn.

So many that I didn’t even notice who crossed the red line first at the finish line.

Li Ziyang walked towards the finish line after breathing slowly and steadily.

at the same time

Xia Mingqiao, who was standing in the stands, could find Li Ziyang's figure in the huge crowd.

When he saw someone, he shouted "Li Ziyang"!

Very far apart.

In fact, Xia Mingqiao wasn't sure if it was him.

Don't you have to run over and have a look!

I jogged all the way with the water, shouting "I'm sorry, please let me pass" so many times.

When he was almost in front of the person, he gasped and shouted again: "Li Ziyang".

"Huh?" Li Ziyang turned around slowly after hearing the voice and saw Xia Mingqiao running to his side.

"Here's some water for you."

"Oh...thank you."

Li Ziyang took the mineral water, opened it and took a big sip.

"...came back to life. Oh, by the way, where is our class?" He asked Xia Mingqiao.

"Second." Xia Mingqiao said particularly happily.

"Ah?" Li Ziyang's first reaction was surprise, and then he asked her happily: "Who is passing behind?"

"During the third baton, someone from Class 7 of the second year of high school dropped the baton. Our class caught up. We kept going and we rushed to second place."

"Very good!!!"

Li Ziyang said happily.

Xia Mingqiao: "I saw you running so fast from the stands. You ran past in a hurry. The four of you, each one is faster than the other."

After being praised, Li Ziyang felt extremely proud, but it showed on his face by just slightly raising the corners of his mouth.

"Ahem...really?"

"real."

Xia Mingqiao's eyes showed a rare look of admiration.

"It's not bad. I exercise every day."

"Well I found it."

After saying that, Xia Mingqiao's eyes gradually moved downwards and secretly glanced at Li Ziyang's abdomen.

Um?

Li Ziyang looked down and realized that he was sweating from exercise and his white shirt was already half wet.

Especially the abdomen.

The clothes stick tightly together, making the muscle lines particularly obvious.

"Oh this-"

"Ah, I suddenly remembered that I have to prepare for a run."

Xia Mingqiao turned his head quickly, as if he wanted to avoid the topic.

she knows

The look in his eyes just now was caught by Li Ziyang.

So shy.

I'm so shy that I can't even understand what I'm saying.

Li Ziyang: "You only have 1,500? How can there be a competition?"

"The girl who was doing the last throw of the women's 4x100 meters in our class suddenly had a stomachache and couldn't run fast, so she asked me to take over."

"you……"

Li Ziyang looked her up and down and raised his eyebrows slightly with a hint of doubt.

Xia Mingqiao smiled helplessly: "Don't underestimate me. Although I am not a long-distance runner, I can still do short bursts."

"Really?" Li Ziyang leaned down, tilted his head and put his ear to listen.

In fact, he never discovered a small detail about himself.

Ever since he fell in love with Xia Mingqiao, he would always bend down slightly every time he listened to her talk.

Now

But the magnitude is a bit larger.

As soon as he approached, Xia Mingqiao subconsciously became nervous.

He blinked his eyes twice, and then said "hmm" in a very low voice.

"What?" Li Ziyang deliberately pretended not to hear.

If you didn't hear it the first time, then it was definitely intentional this time.

Xia Mingqiao is already very shy.

Li Ziyang also deliberately teased her.

"You...I can run very fast anyway."

Xia Mingqiao turned away and did not struggle needlessly.

You should be confident enough to say "I am a great sprinter"

But looking at Li Ziyang's profile, looking at his fair skin, looking at the beads of sweat as he lay quietly, my heart was unknowingly drawn to the youthful energy in him.

no way.

Like it so much.

Later, a classmate came and asked her to gather at the starting point.

The little face with a slight blush has returned to its former whiteness.

…

Compared with male sports students, there are much fewer female sports students.

Girls are much less competitive.

Still the same

The eight classes in the first group stood on the track drawn by each.

Xia Mingqiao is the fourth player.

The teacher took me to the corresponding line.

While waiting, I looked around and saw someone I knew.

Ma Wenling from Class 11, Grade 2.

Ma Wenling saw that Xia Mingqiao's pupils were obviously dilated.

She remembered Xia Mingqiao very deeply.

I have never even dared to forget it.

Xia Mingqiao was stunned for a long time after seeing her, but soon gave her an official smile.

This smile is a smile that belongs exclusively to the chairman.

With strong self-confidence, but without losing the kindness and gentleness in his heart.

Ma Wenling said nothing.

She raised the corners of her mouth and nodded awkwardly.

To say that they met by chance, a smile to each other would be the limit.

What's more, they are now opponents.

They are all fourth best.

"Bang--!!!"

When the two were confused, they heard a gunshot.

The game begins!

Xia Mingqiao jumped excitedly when she saw the top girl in the class starting from the first place.
