Chapter 217 School Sports Day

Because of his poor physical fitness in the past, although Chen Che did not avoid exercise like the plague, he did not exercise very frequently.

When he was in high school, he would not sign up for the school sports meet if he could, but he would try to sign up for the easier events if he had to.

If he had thought when he was in high school that one day he would take the initiative to sign up for an event like the 5000-meter race, he would probably have thought he was crazy.

……

In the green area of ​​the playground, a man and a woman were walking towards the track at a leisurely pace.

The boy was tall and straight, wearing a black jacket and grey shorts. His muscular but not thick calves were visible from under his trouser legs, and he looked tall and handsome.

The girl next to him was wearing a beige dress and a white shawl. Her long black hair was draped over her shoulders like silk. Her watery eyes and fair face gave people a youthful feeling of first love.

“Are you sure you can break the 5,000-meter record later?” Shen Dai turned to look at Chen Che, who was putting his hands in his pockets and breathing out nonchalantly. She suddenly felt the urge to reach out and hold his arm.

This impulse came quite suddenly, without any reason, but like a bonfire on firewood, it burned more and more vigorously.

“I think so.” Chen Che raised his eyebrows. Although he added the word “I think so”, his tone was quite firm, as if he was confident.

Although he put in a lot of effort in the long jump in the morning and the 100-meter and 200-meter races in the afternoon, he still easily achieved a result that crushed other players in the same group with his physical fitness that can only be described as “inhuman”.

Chen Che can still recall the morning long jump. After he jumped 7.7 meters because he “exerted” a little too hard, the teacher in charge of recording had an unbelievable look on his face, and the wide eyes of the other people in the group…

After learning this “lesson” in the morning, he became much smarter in the two sprint events in the afternoon. Since there were no “experts” in the same group, he maintained a level of about one level.

The strength is unknown, it becomes stronger when facing a stronger opponent…

Just as Chen Che was still thinking about how to perform in the 5,000-meter race, he suddenly felt a pair of hands gently holding his arms.

“Hmm?” Chen Che turned around and looked at Shen Dai with a puzzled look.

Looking at the other party’s eyes, Shen Dai’s brain suddenly froze. She didn’t expect that she would subconsciously make such a bold move.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and in less than a moment, she came up with a somewhat reasonable excuse.

“You… you’re going to run 4,000 kilometers later, right? You can’t run in a coat.” Shen Dai turned her head away and continued, “Let me hold your clothes for you.”

“Okay, thank you Sister Dai.” Chen Che nodded with a smile and swiftly took off his coat and handed it to Shen Dai.

As they talked and walked, the two of them soon arrived at the 5,000-meter registration office.

Although there was still some time before the event started, many contestants had already gathered nearby. It was among this group of people that Chen Che unexpectedly spotted a familiar figure.

……

[Li Ming: Senior, the competition is about to start, are you here? ]

【Li Ming: (puppy, laughing, jpg)】

At the registration office, Li Ming looked down at his phone, paced back and forth, and occasionally looked up at the contestants around him.

If possible, he certainly hoped that he could perform the best among his peers and win Shu Nuan’s favor, but he was also very clear about his physical fitness…

It’s not bad, but it’s not outstanding either. Although I have been training almost every day during this period and have made some progress, it is pure fantasy to want to make a big splash.

Li Ming just hoped that someone in his group was just making up their mind and couldn’t even finish the 5,000-meter run, so that he could rank a little higher.

As he was watching, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

Li Ming: o((⊙﹏⊙))o.
With disbelief and a hint of luck, Li Ming tilted his head slightly and looked carefully, and then his heart finally died. “Fuck, he’s not here to run 5,000 meters too.” Li Ming “tsk” and felt a little irritated.

Every time Chen Che appeared, he would always be treated as a supporting role, which caused Li Ming to have a stress reaction. He wanted to stay away from him when he saw him appear.

If you can’t afford to offend, you can’t afford to hide.

But this time it seems like there is no way to hide…

“What if he is just here to be a spectator and not to run?” Li Ming still held a glimmer of hope in his heart. He opened the class group and found the school sports meeting document posted in the group.

When I saw the familiar name in the 5,000-meter hurdle, the last bit of hope in my heart disappeared without a trace like a popped bubble.

Li Ming took a deep breath, then opened the chat interface with Shu Nuan, hoping that Shu Nuan would stand him up.

After a while…

[Shu Nuan: I have something to do now. I will come over when I am free.]

【Li Ming: Just do your thing, take your time, don’t be in a hurry.】

【Li Ming: It’s okay if you can’t come. 】

“It’s better not to come.” Li Ming put away his phone, rubbed his hands, and looked up to see Chen Che looking at him with a smile. When he looked up, he waved and greeted him.

But that smile always seemed to have some bad intentions.

The next second, Li Ming’s eyes fell on the girl standing next to Chen Che.

“Fuck, it’s good to be handsome…” Li Ming also greeted him, feeling annoyed and helpless.

“Your classmate?” Seeing Chen Che suddenly extend his hand to greet her, Shen Dai asked subconsciously.

“I’m a club classmate. I’ve met him a few times before.” Chen Che stretched out his arms. “I’m going to check in first. I’ll trouble you with the clothes.”

“Okay, leave it to me.”

……

The 5,000-meter race was divided into two groups, A and B. Chen Che’s Group A consisted of fifteen people.

“Beep beep beep…”

A loud whistle sounded, and the physical education teacher stood aside and shouted loudly: “Everyone, get ready…”

After a moment, a “bang” sound was heard.

The moment he heard the signal gun fire, Li Ming rushed out subconsciously. Although he was moving with all his might, figures still passed by him.

Li Ming knew that he had to control his pace when running, but when he saw Chen Che easily pass by him, his eyelids twitched. Then he accelerated and rushed forward, wanting to stick to Chen Che.

However, even though he had accelerated as much as possible, the gap between them was still gradually widening.

“Fuck, so fast…” Li Ming gritted his teeth, thinking that if he continued to keep up, he might not be able to run more than three or four laps, so he decisively slowed down and returned to his original pace.

……

Chen Che was confident that with his physical fitness, he would definitely be able to defeat the opponent in this game. However, in order to prevent the final result from being too outrageous, he did not rush forward with all his strength. Instead, he followed behind a few tall and thin athletes, taking steps at a leisurely pace.
