Chapter 35: Who Is Your Rival

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

The champion of the 110-meter hurdle was a second-year student from the Life Science Major. Although his speed couldn’t be compared to Liu Xiang’s, the whole process was fantastic.

Meanwhile, there were other games going on, such as high jump, long jump, shot put, and so forth. On the screen, the names and majors of each student who got excellent results were shown.

Zhao Yanzi watched for a while and almost finished then snacks. Then. she suddenly turned to Hao Ren and asked, “Uncle, when will it be your turn?”

“My race is in the afternoon,” Hao Ren answered.

“What race?” Zhao Yanzi continued.

“1500-meter race,” Hao Ren answered calmly.

“Just one?’ Zhao Yanzi opened her eyes widely.

“That’s it.” Hao Ren nodded.

Hearing Hao Ren’s response, Zhao Yanzi mumbled, “So useless.”

“Do you need your husband to able to run a decathlon?” Hao Ren almost shouted that out.

“I always get first place for long-distance races at my school,” Zhao Yanzi said.

“Fine, next time I will come and watch your race.” Hao Ren said absentmindedly.

Zhao Yanzi’s face showed a bit of annoyance. She made a striking pose all of a sudden. “You! If you can’t get the first place then you are absolutely useless!” She shouted.

Somehow, her words touched Hao Ren’s heart. He suddenly realized that the reason she sneaked out was probably to watch his race.

The resistance he had against her suddenly disappeared. Instead, he felt quite moved.

But if that was the case…

“You have to go back before noon,” Hao Ren said to her.

“You nag too much!” Zhao Yanzi twisted her pretty eyebrows. “I had asked for a leave!”

“What is the reason?” Hao Ren continued to ask.

He soon realized that he disciplined her quite a lot. Especially when he didn’t even know this little girl about one or two weeks ago…

“I feel ill!” Zhao Yanzi almost screamed.

Hao Ren didn’t expect her to ask for a leave just to watch his race. Thus, Hao Ren caved. “Fine, but you have to go back after I finish my race.”

He felt that since he wasn’t her elder, there was no need to pester her so much. He also sneaked out of class when he was back in middle school, and he sneaked out, even more, when he got into university. Therefore, he actually wasn’t qualified to give Zhao Yanzi a lesson.

“I got it! You are so annoying.” Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes at Hao Ren.

Ling, who sat beside her, covered her mouth while laughing. It was probably her first time seeing the fearless Zhao Yanzi being driven nearly crazy by someone.

She was dragged out by Zhao Yanzi today, and the reason she gave to the teacher was to keep Zhao Yanzi company at the hospital. The teachers were aware of how influential and wealthy Zhao Yanzi’s family was, so they didn’t dare to give her a hard time. What surprised Ling was that although Zhao Yanzi couldn’t be considered as an excellent student, this was her first time skipping class.

“Time for the 1600-meter relay race,” Xie Yujia reminded Hao Ren suddenly. Dozens of students on the bleachers started walking towards their specific spots.

Hao Ren switched his attention to the sports field as he saw Huang Xujie would be participating in this race too.

The 1600-meter relay race was the highlight of the Athletic Games at Eastern Ocean University as it wasn’t only a test of endurance and explosive force but also a reflection of teamwork. The 400-meter relay race, by contrast, took such a short amount of time that it finished even before the audience could really enjoy it. Therefore, it could only be seen as a warmup.

Cheers sounded on the spectator stands that were silent a few moments ago as Huang Xujie showed up.

He purposely rolled up his sleeves to show the solid deltoid muscles. Underneath his sports shorts were a pair of thick and strong legs. Those chunky legs didn’t make him look short and chubby because of his 180-centimeter height. Instead, he looked extremely powerful.

The way he showed off his muscles caused another wave of screams from all the girls.

“That guy in golden sportswear looks handsomes,” Staring at the track, Ling who was beside Zhao Yanzi said to her.

“Em, yeah.” Zhao Yanzi looked over and nodded.

“Little kid, what do you know about good looks?” Hao Ren objected vaguely.

Ling turned around and cast a slight glance at Hao Ren; it seemed like he offended them by objecting their taste of beauty.

Zhao Yanzi, however, pretended she didn’t hear Hao Ren’s words. She stared at the track motionlessly as if she was admiring Huang Xujie who was trying to act cool.

Her act made Hao Ren a bit jealous. Although he never thought of marrying Zhao Yanzi, she was still his fiancée by name.

What he didn’t know was that Zhao Yanzi had nearly the same thoughts when she saw Xie Yujia give water to Hao Ren.

After warming up for a few minutes, every athlete got into position

Chants like “Come on, XXX!” or “Come on, XXX Major!” soared through the entire field. However, among all the cheerings, the loudest and most in sync one was definitely “Come on, Huang Xujie!”

“Damn, such a nice Athletic Games is now becoming that guy’s private show.” Hao Ren felt secretly annoyed.

Thanks to the rules of the Athletic Games, each athlete could participate in no more than three games. “Otherwise, who knows how much limelight that guy would get.” Hao Ren thought as he didn’t realize the annoyance he had towards Huang Xujie had evolved into disgust.

However, most of the guys were annoyed by Huang Xujie anyhow. As he always tried to act cool, most of the guys in the school were just choking with silent fury. After all, Huang Xujie’s father was the deputy mayor, and he was the president of the most popular Rock Climbing Club; most of the guys didn’t have the chance to get close to him.

Bang! As soon as the starting pistol fired, the eight athletes who represented the eight majors launched themselves into the race with a burst of acceleration. The whole atmosphere heated up instantly. All kinds of cheerings resonated in the field.

Compared to the Mechatronics Engineering Major, International Business Administration Major didn’t have a lot of male students; that was why they never did very well in sports. As the trump card of their major, Huang Xujie was placed as the fourth runner to boost the performance of the major.

After the third runners finished, the distance between the International Business Administration Major and other majors were getting longer and longer. As the relay baton was handed to Huang Xujie, he was over twenty meters behind the first-place runner from the Mechatronic Engineering Major and over ten meters behind the second-place runner from the Computer Science Major.

“There is probably no chance of overthrowing with such a distance gap,” Following the situation on the field, Hao Ren thought to himself.

However, Huang Xujie who was on the outermost track strived to catch up. His golden sportswear seemed to have created a golden whirlwind around him. He ran the 400-meter distance in a flat-out sprint as if he was doing a 100-meter dash.

Two meters! One meter!

He outran the second-place runner within three hundred meters!

There were only one hundred meters left!

Similar to what happened during the 400-meter relay race, he was about five meters behind the first-place runner!

It was impossible to catch up as he had already run at full speed for the last three hundred meters. How could he still be able to sprint through the last one hundred meters like it was a 100-meter dash?

Hao Ren couldn’t help but to get up and look at the track; he felt like his heart was on tenterhooks.

Actually, it wasn’t only him. Almost all of the people on the spectator stands got up to watch the final dash.

Woosh!

Huang Xujie surprisingly surpassed the first-place runner and reached the finish line with a one-meter gap.

“Wow…”

The entire audience went crazy.

“Is this guy a real human? How could he have such a strong explosive force as well as incredible endurance?” Hao Ren looked at the finish line with a bit of astonishment.

“He runs so fast!” Ling couldn’t help but express her praise when she saw Huang Xujie run for the first time.

Numerous first and second-year students from the International Business Administration Major stood up and cheered vigorously for their third-year senior!

Being a hero again, Huang Xujie took off his golden sports t-shirt immediately and showed off his muscles. Then he held the t-shirt in his hand and waved it around.

“Does he think he’s a world champion?” Seeing the result, the guys around Hao Ren sat down one after another and complained discontentedly.

“Huang Xujie! Huang Xujie!” The name Huang Xujie was called out in sync by over a thousand students from the International Business Administration Major.

Hao Ren sat back down, grabbed a bottle of water, and had a sip.

“This guy has saved his major and snatched victories at the last minute twice already. From this respect, he indeed is worthy of pride. However, he isn’t fighting for the honor of his major; he is just submerging himself in the satisfaction of victory. He just would like to see others cheering for him.”

“This is obvious as Huang Xujie didn’t gather and celebrate the victory with his team members. Instead, he chose to run around by himself.”

Hao Ren was calmly analyzing Huang Xujie’s behavior after he got his victory.

“It that who you will be competing with this afternoon?” Seeing the serious look on Hao Ren’s face, Zhao Yanzi asked suddenly.
