After resting for about half an hour, a notice came over the radio that the 400-meter final was about to begin and asked the athletes to take their positions.
Xiao Yan went to report and asked Han Lu to look after Su Yi.
There were a lot of people gathered around the runway. Han Lu protected Su Yi, and Su Yi protected Xiao Yan's schoolbag, and the two squeezed in.
Xiao Yan was standing on the track with five other contestants beside him, but he was obviously the most eye-catching one.
The boy's figure stood like a cedar, he was tall and had long legs, handsome features, a cold temperament, and a few strands of hair casually draped over his forehead, which made everyone else look like passers-by.
Su Yi heard that there was more than one girl, so she asked the people around her who he was.
Most of the students in the first and second year of high school knew Xiao Yan. Even though the competition hadn't started yet, they were already cheering for him at the top of their lungs. Of course, the ones who shouted the loudest were his classmates, and Han Lu was the first one among them.
Not only did he shout himself, he also motivated others. When he shouted "Xiao Yan", others spontaneously followed suit and shouted "Come on!" in unison with loud and clear voices, as if they were going to overwhelm the other classes with their momentum.
As soon as the referee gave the order, six figures shot out like arrows, and the sounds of cheers and encouragement were like waves, one louder than the other.
Xiao Yan was on the innermost lane and started a little behind the others, but he had great explosive power and his movements were as agile and smooth as a cheetah after the start. He quickly shortened the distance to the runners in front of him and left them behind one by one when turning, and then led the way.
During the final 100-meter sprint, some students even started screaming.
Unsurprisingly, Xiao Yan was the first to cross the finish line.
"Ayan, good job!" He got off the track, Han Lu rushed over and patted his shoulder excitedly.
The other students also rushed forward, surrounding him like stars surrounding the moon, and congratulated him in unison.
Someone handed him water and tissues, but Xiao Yan waved his hand to refuse, pushed everyone away, and walked outside the runway.
Su Yi stood there, handed him his handkerchief, and said with a smile: "I was right, I knew you could come first."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
A girl not far away saw this scene and said to her classmates in disbelief: "Oh my God, is Senior Xiao smiling? This is the first time I see him smile! Who is that girl, his girlfriend?!"
Her classmates also looked over here, shaking their heads with envy, "I don't know, I haven't heard that he has a girlfriend."
"Look, they seem to be very close. Senior Xiao refused the water from others, but accepted the water from that girl and even smiled at her. Wow... I also want to be treated differently by him once."
Someone nearby said, "During training before, Senior Xiao carried her schoolbag. From what others have said, she seems to be Senior Xiao's sister."
The girl at the front held her face and exclaimed, "I also want to be his sister..."
The other two teased, "Then you should think about it carefully."
After Xiao Yan finished drinking the water, he took the schoolbag from Su Yi, put it on one shoulder, looked at his watch, and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Before Su Yi could answer, Han Lu squeezed in from behind and said, "Let's go eat, let's eat, kids come too!"
Finally, I went to the cafeteria with Xiao Yan and several of his classmates. The two of them were a few steps behind. Xiao Yan said, "I looked at the time of the 5,000-meter race. It starts at 3 pm. After dinner, let Uncle He take you home to rest."
"Okay." Su Yi said indifferently, and asked casually: "You don't have any competitions later? Do you want to go back or stay in school?"
"I still have some things to do. I'll wait for you to finish running this afternoon so we can go home together."
Su Yi nodded, and Xiao Yan said, "You can eat a piece of chocolate before the game, but don't drink water or eat too many snacks."
"Oh." Su Yi glanced at his schoolbag and nodded obediently.
"Hey, you two, hurry up. What are you talking about?" Han Lu called out to the two people in front.
Guo Yanyan also looked back and said with a smile: "Xiao Yan and his sister have a really good relationship."
Han Lu couldn't help but complain: "It's more than good, it's too good!"
If you don’t know, you would think that they are siblings and have been in love for more than ten years.
But in fact, apart from their own family, Han Lu is the one who knows the inside story best. Not only are these two not relatives, but they have only known each other for more than a month.
If someone told Han Lu a month ago that Xiao Yan would eat lollipops and look cute with the lollipops in his mouth, Han Lu would definitely think that person was talking in his sleep. But now? He dared not say anything, for fear of being slapped in the face in the next second.
He felt that either Xiao Yan was too lacking in love and suddenly discovered the existence of brother-sister love, and the missing emotions began to overflow, or he was poisoned by sister complex and forgot to take his medicine!
After dinner, Su Yi took Uncle He's car home. Su Wanting and Xiao Xing were both at the company, so Old Lady Qu was alone at home at noon. Seeing Su Yi suddenly come back, she was obviously very happy. The two talked for a while and took a lunch break together.
In the afternoon, Sui returned to school half an hour before the game started.
Not long after arriving at the playground, Zhang Jiajia came rushing over, "Su Yi, I've been looking for you for a long time. I saw the result of the shot put competition. You came in second place. That's amazing! You earned five points for our class by yourself!"
In each competition, the top six athletes can add extra points for their class. The first place gets six points, the second place gets five points, and so on. The sixth place gets one point. At the final awards ceremony, in addition to the individual athletes, the total scores of each class will also be compared to determine the champion and runner-up.
Sue smiled and asked her, "How was your long jump?"
Zhang Jiajia shrugged, "Third place. So far, no one in our class has won the championship. You are the highest ranked. If our two races were not scheduled together this morning, I would definitely go to cheer for you. But don't worry, I have already made an agreement with several people. We will cheer for you in the 5,000-meter race!"
"Thank you." Su Yi nodded.
The competition was about to begin, so she went to the registration office to check in, and then followed the team leader into the venue.
Standing at the starting line, the contestant next to her happened to be Zhang Na, but she had a cold expression and didn't even look at Su Yi, as if she didn't know her and had never made a bet with her.
Someone outside the venue was shouting "Come on!". Su Yi heard a few familiar voices and turned her head to see that in addition to Zhang Jiajia and classmates, Xiao Yan and Han Lu were also standing by the track. When she looked over, Han Lu waved at her.
"Ayan, why do I think the kid is in a bit of a predicament? Five thousand meters, twelve and a half laps, I'm not kidding, can she really finish it?"
Xiao Yan didn't say anything, his eyes fell on Su Yi.
When gunshots rang out, more than a dozen people rushed out together. They were originally crowded together, but after running half a circle they ran in a line.
Some people rushed to the front, while others fell behind temporarily to conserve their energy. Su Yi followed closely behind Zhang Na, and the two of them ran in the middle.
After the first lap, cheers started to ring out near the starting point, and the cheers gradually stopped until the athletes ran far away. Then, when they passed by for the second time, people on the sidelines started to cheer again.
After three laps, the gap gradually widened, and Su Yi and Zhang Na still maintained their speed and ran in the upper middle position.
Han Lu stared at her for a while, then nodded and said, "I can't believe your sister is so strong. She has already run more than a thousand meters, and her expression hasn't changed much."
Xiao Yan hummed.
Han Lu rolled his eyes. "You are too realistic. Just now, when I doubted that your sister could not finish the race, you ignored me. Now when I praised her for her good physical strength, you immediately said nothing. At noon, I was wondering why you, who was so bothered by others, stayed when the event was obviously over. It turned out that you just wanted to watch the children's competition!"
Xiao Yan ignored him again and focused on the track.
When the race was halfway through, the gap became even bigger, with the first and last place separated by nearly a lap. At this time, Zhang Na was already in first place and Su Yi was in second place, with only two or three steps between them.
"Su Yi, come on!" Outside the venue, Zhang Jiajia was extremely excited. To be honest, she came to cheer for Su Yi purely to support her and did not think that she could really get a ranking. But looking at the current situation, as long as she keeps up, Su Yi can at least get second place and leave the third place far behind!
Several other students in the class also shouted along. Even though they didn't have much of a relationship with Su Yi and some of them had never even spoken to her, at this moment, everyone couldn't help but become nervous and excited.
The two people in front were already far ahead. Perhaps because she heard footsteps behind her, Zhang Na looked back and found that it was Su Yi. She was obviously surprised, and her face, which was already a little pale from running, looked even worse.
She gritted her teeth and suddenly quickened her pace, trying to leave him behind. But the footsteps behind her kept following closely. After she rushed for a while, she couldn't keep up with the pace and slowed down unconsciously. After a while, she tried to sprint again, but her thighs were so sore that she could hardly lift them, and her chest hurt so much that she could hardly breathe.
"Your rhythm is messed up." Su Yi reminded her from behind, her face not red and her breath not panting, "If you run so fast, you may not be able to reach the finish line."
She actually still had the energy to speak!
Zhang Na bit her lips until they turned white, and her brain had turned into a mess due to lack of oxygen, but she had to admit that what she said was right. However, her rhythm had just been disrupted by herself, and although she tried her best to adjust now, it seemed that the energy she had been holding on to suddenly dissipated, and she could no longer gather the energy she had before.
Suddenly someone outside the field cheered, and she subconsciously looked back. It turned out that the third place had started to speed up, and the gap that was originally half a lap behind was now gradually narrowing.
Zhang Na was almost a little desperate, and she began to doubt whether she could really reach the finish line.
"It's the last lap, Suyi, hold on! Come on!" Zhang Jiajia and others shouted loudly.
Han Lu stroked his chin and said to Xiao Yan, "Your sister is simply a little freak. She was talking to the person in front of her just now. Did you see that? I have every reason to suspect that the little girl is doing something naughty on purpose. She has such good stamina, but she follows behind others. Isn't this deliberately trying to make people nervous?"
Xiao Yan finally gave him a half look, "Where's the evidence?"
"I just said a lot, isn't that evidence? You can't just see your own sister and not see others at all."
"Human evidence? Physical evidence?" Xiao Yan asked again.
This guy is taking it too seriously!
Han Lu was speechless. It was just a joke. First of all, the girl herself didn't have good mental qualities, so it was not her fault.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Yan couldn't stand hearing anyone say a bad word about his sister, and even talked about witnesses and evidence. He was now very sure that if Su Yi really did something bad, this guy must have helped to destroy the body!
Sister control makes people dizzy and has a distorted world view!
