Chapter 172: CH 172

Tang Qi Yuan took advantage of the time between classes to ask all the students about the sports they wanted to participate in, and then filled in the registration forms one by one. In the end, only the 3,000-meter event on the registration form had Chen Zi Zhan’s name alone, no one is willing to participate in this event except him.

The school had stipulated that at least two people from each class should take part in the 3,000-metre race, and Tang Qi Yuan decided to put his name on the form.

He picked up a pen and tried to write his name on it, but Sheng Cen suddenly snatched the pen from him and wrote his name on it without hesitation.

“You want to participate?” Tang Qi Yuan looked up in surprise, he had heard that in previous years Sheng Cen had never participated in sports events, and yesterday Teacher Deng had even made a point of telling him that if Sheng Cen didn’t want to participate, then forget it. Sheng Cen was after all a prince, there was no need to make him compete in such events.

“En.” Sheng Cen replied lazily and went back to sleep.

Tang Qi Yuan smiled as he held the registration form and put a lollipop on Sheng Cen’s desk as a reward.

Before the sports day, the school held an examination and Sheng Cen got exactly ten marks in each subject, just as Tang Qi Yuan had hoped.

When Tang Qi Yuan looked at the marks on his paper, he was so happy that he was grinning from ear to ear. Teacher Deng was even more excited with tears in her eyes. She felt that the most correct decision she made was to let Tang Qi Yuan and Sheng Cen be table mates.

As expected, a good role model around you can make people improve!

Sheng Cen half leaned back in his seat and yawned. Looking at Tang Qi Yuan and Teacher Deng’s excitement, he couldn’t help but suspect that his progress might not be one small step, but a giant step for humanity.

Tang Qi Yuan was in a more accomplished mood than if he had scored a perfect score, and it was only after a while that he calmed down, took out his paper and began to explain the error questions to Sheng Cen.

Sheng Cen looked at the upward curve of his mouth that kept falling, and then at the dense process of solving the problems written on the paper he was explaining, and after a moment of silence, asked: “How many points do you want me to get in the next exam?”

Tang Qi Yuan thought about it and happily stretched out two fingers, giving his table mate a very tough target, “Twenty points in each subject!”

Goals make people improve, and he was sure that with his relentless efforts, his table mate would be able to get a high score of twenty points in the next exam!

Sheng Cen smiled and reached out to rub a handful of his hair, “This Highness will be generous and give you a thirty on the next exam!”

“En!” When Tang Qi Yuan heard his words, his eyes instantly lit up and he nodded his head repeatedly like a little chicken pecking rice, smiling as he revealed a row of neat little teeth.

It had been a tough effort, but the fact that his table mate is willing to work hard and had a positive mindset made it a lot better than before!

The sports day came soon after the exams. It was their class’ last sports day in this school, so everyone was excited, each preparing lots of snacks like primary school children and deciding to have a last good fun time.

As everyone in the class had to register for a sport, and Tang Qi Yuan, as the Class President, had to participate actively. He signed himself up for the 100 metre sprint, as he was not physically capable of running long distances, but his explosive power in sprinting was fine, so he should at least be able to run the whole distance.

He was the first one in the class to take part in the sprint race. In the end, he tried his best and barely managed to finish third.

Tang Qi Yuan threw himself into Sheng Cen’s arms and looked at his broad chest, panting and breathing steadily, a small face as white as paper, only his lips remained red.

Sheng Cen took the water bottle and carefully fed him two sips of water, his eyes distressed, but his tone was a derisive whisper, “Little nerd, you’re too weak.”

“Can’t say men are weak!” Tang Qi Yuan took two sips of water, regained a little strength and raised his eyes to glare at him.

“En, you’re not weak.” Sheng Cen smiled and stroked his back, “Do you need me to carry you back?”

“Of course not, I still have to go and receive my prize.” Tang Qi Yuan pursed up his lips and smiled, the mole at the corner of his eyes was stained with beads of sweat and glistened crystalline in the sunlight.

This was the first time in all his years that he had relied on his physical strength to get an award, so he was particularly proud of it.

Sheng Cen felt that if he had a tail, it would have been up by now. Sheng Cen shook his head helplessly and supported him to go collect his prize.

The third prize was a fountain pen. After receiving the prize, Tang Qi Yuan jumped happily back to Sheng Cen’s side with the fountain pen in his hand.

“Are you that happy?”

Tang Qi Yuan nodded his head, “Especially happy!”

He took the fountain pen and shook it in the sunlight, looked at it carefully for a while, then handed it to Sheng Cen, “Giving it to you.”

“For me?” Sheng Cen was stunned for a moment.

Tang Qi Yuan nodded, “En, you can use this fountain pen to get more high marks in the future!”

He shoved the fountain pen into Sheng Cen’s hand, “This is the first gift your table mate gave you, please treasure it!”

Sheng Cen hooked his lips and took the fountain pen in his hand, smiling and asking, “You’re really giving it to me? Don’t you like it a lot?”

“It’s because I like it, that’s why I’m giving it to you.” Tang Qi Yuan felt that when giving a gift, it was only logical to give the one you liked the most, so that it would be sincere.

Sheng Cen had a smile in his eyes and looked down at Tang Qi Yuan, his fingers gently touched the smooth surface of the fountain pen and tucked it into his pocket.

When Sheng Cen took to the field for the 3,000 meter race, Tang Qi Yuan was even more nervous than Sheng Cen.

He ran to the railing in front of the class, his eyes fixed on Sheng Cen on the track, and shouted nervously, “Sheng Cen! Go for it!”

Sheng Cen was standing lazily on the track, when he heard the voice he turned his head and met his bright eyes, pursed his lips, changed his posture and made a starting motion. At that time, he only wanted to help his little table mate complete the task after seeing no one signing up. He originally planned to come down after a few laps, but now, he remembered how the little table mate was serious about the competition just now, and he actually wanted to run seriously.

Sheng Cen hooked his lips, his little table mate is watching, he can’t give his little table mate shame ah.

The whistle sounded, and Sheng Cen rushed out in a single stride, and the others all set off together.

The prince competed in person, which was tantamount to having fun with the people. The principal, teachers and students were all excited, cheering and calling out to each other, and the other competitors were also sprinting with all their might, if they could win against the prince, they would have enough to brag about for the rest of their lives.

Only Sheng Cen was unhurried, maintaining a steady pace from the start of the run and always maintaining his position in the top five, which was really very leisurely compared to the other runners.

Chen Zi Zhan ran fast from the start for the sake of performance, but gradually slowed down halfway through the race, clearly losing his stamina and panting like a cow as he ran.

In contrast to him, Sheng Cen suddenly got faster in the last three laps, overtaking one runner after another, and was finally the first to reach the finish line, taking first place, with second place a full half lap behind him.

Seeing Sheng Cen sprinting, the whole crowd was abuzz, and Tang Qi Yuan jumped up and down in place with excitement.

After Sheng Cen finished running, apart from some sweat, he did not look tired at all, he was still standing straight and his breathing looked even.

The winners were announced on the loudspeaker and the top three students were asked to go to the prize presentation. Sheng Cen did not want to go, but after touching the pen in his pocket, he chose to turn around and go to the prize presentation platform.

Sheng Cen has already walked to the podium, and Chen Zi Zhan only managed to finish the 3,000 meter run with difficulty. He looked as if he was on the verge of collapse, his body was covered in sweat and he looked like he had been fished out of the water, and was helped to the bleachers by a nearby student.

Tang Qi Yuan watched from afar as Sheng Cen stood on the podium to receive his award, and it was only when he had finished receiving his award and was enthusiastically pulled by the principal to take a group photo that he turned around, walked over to Chen Zi Zhan’s side and asked: “Classmate Chen, are you alright?”

Chen Zi Zhan shook his head with a pale face, not uttering a word for half a day.

“Why is your face so white?” Tang Qi Yuan frowned slightly, Chen Zi Zhan looked as if he was sick, even his lips had lost their colour.

Chen Zi Zhan finally caught his breath, took a few sips of water and said with a slightly red face: “I …… have low blood sugar, I didn’t eat breakfast.”

He didn’t eat breakfast this morning so that his body could lighten up when he was running, he didn’t expect that now, not only did he not get the ranking, but he was also tired like this, and now admitting in front of everyone that he had low blood sugar was really unmanly, so he couldn’t help but blush.

He completely gave up maintaining his image, with Tang Qi Yuan around, the ‘boss’ status he had managed to build up before was considered impossible to exist.

“How can you not eat when you have low blood sugar? Classmate Chen, it’s very wrong for you to not take care of your body like this.” Tang Qi Yuan looked at him disapprovingly and continued: “And if you’re not feeling well, you should have told me earlier and not forcefully participate in the competition.”

“I know.” Chen Zi Zhan glanced helplessly at the students surrounding him, really feeling disgraced.

He couldn’t help but sigh silently in his heart, fortunately he was already in his senior year, not far from graduation, otherwise if he continued like this, he would be ashamed to face others in the future.

Tang Qi Yuan took out a lollipop from his pocket and handed it to him, “Here you go.”

Recently, he is used to carrying a lollipop in his pocket in order to make his table mate smoke a little less, he had once heard his brother say that a little sugar would do some good when you have low blood sugar.

Chen Zi Zhan nodded and reached out to take it.

When Sheng Cen came back from receiving the award and walked to the stands, he looked up and saw that the lollipop belonging to him was being given to Chen Zi Zhan by Tang Qi Yuan.

He snatched the lollipop out of Chen Zi Zhan’s hand and glared at Tang Qi Yuan with an unfriendly expression: “Why did you give him my lollipop?”

Tang Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment and helplessly reminded, “That’s my lollipop.”

Sheng Cen was in the wrong, but he was always unreasonable with his table mate, so he said brutally: “If I say it’s mine, it’s mine, you’re not allowed to give it to anyone else.”

“Classmate Chen is suffering from hypoglycemia and needs to replenish his sugar.” Tang Qi Yuan explained.

Sheng Cen looked down at Chen Zi Zhan and gently ground his teeth, “You’re hypoglycemic?”

Chen Zi Zhan shivered as he was sandwiched between the two of them, shaking his head in horror, isn’t it just a lollipop? Can’t he just not eat it?

Sheng Cen withdrew his eyes with satisfaction, turned his head to the two students next to him who were usually very close to Chen Zi Zhan and raised his eyebrows, saying in a cold voice: “Since he’s not well, why don’t you hurry up and send him to the infirmary?”

“Ah……yes, yes……” the two hurriedly helped Chen Zi Zhan up and fled in the direction of the infirmary.

“Pay attention to rest ah, Classmate Chen.” Tang Qi Yuan shouted out in a hurry.

Sheng Cen tucked the lollipop into his own pocket and tossed the exercise book he was holding in his other hand to Tang Qi Yuan, saying casually: “For you.”

“Exercise book? The prize for the 3,000 metres?” Tang Qi Yuan’s eyes lit up as he looked at the exercise book in his hand, the questions in this exercise book were the type of questions that were hard to buy and he had wanted to buy it for a long time.

“En.” Sheng Cen ruffled his hair and said with some disgust, “It’s hard for the school to give out a prize but it’s still an exercise book, I can’t use it anyway, so I’ll give it to you.”

Tang Qi Yuan smiled and narrowed his eyes as he hugged the exercise book, “When I’m done, I’ll pick the best questions to teach you.”

“En.”

Tang Qi Yuan looked at the sweat on his forehead and hurriedly handed over the water he had prepared long ago.

Sheng Cen opened the thermos and took a sip……the water this time was steeped with small chrysanthemums to clear the fire and reduce the heat.

He glanced around at the cola in the hands of his classmates, his throat moved, and then tilted his head and drank a cup of chrysanthemum tea.

Hmph, it’s still his little table mate who knows how to maintain health.
