April 29th, the second day of the sports meet.
A little after 7 in the morning.
"It's so nice not to have to go to class!" Dong Qingfeng hummed a song, carrying breakfast in his hands, and walked into the classroom with a relaxed and happy mood.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Chen Qian studying.
Dong Qingfeng leaned on the edge of the desk and said, "Chen Qian, I didn't see you yesterday afternoon. You weren't studying in the classroom the whole time, were you?"
"So hard?"
Students at No. 4 Middle School were not forced to go to the playground to watch the sports meet, but except for the senior high school students, almost all students from other grades went to the playground to watch the sports meet.
Chen Qian raised his head: "I really don't like the word 'effort' because effort means pain."
"But, for me, learning is enjoyment. I am very happy and I enjoy it."
Dong Qingfeng: '...Is he really the same species as me?'
Dong Qingfeng's academic performance is not bad. He ranks in the top 5 in Class 8 and in the top 50 in the grade. It will be no problem for him to get into a 211 university in the future.
However, deep down, he didn't like studying. Even when he learned English, it was for playing games and he treated it as a tool.
What he loves to do is far from studying.
Yu Wen and Jiang Yanan entered the classroom together, and Dong Qingfeng's eyes lit up: "You are here!"
He picked up the breakfast on the table and said attentively: "This is the 'Old Man's Burrito' I bought on Four Road. It tastes amazing!"
“I also went to Taiyuan Lane and bought walnut and red bean soy milk!”
"This soy milk is amazing. It's amazing because it's not hot. It's iced. Take a sip in the hot summer and it's so cool to the heart. What a great feeling!"
Jiang Yanan took the soy milk and felt very happy.
She thanked him, "I know about the old man's burritos. I heard from Qiqi that many people line up to buy them every morning. I have always wanted to buy some, but I didn't expect you to mention it yesterday. You bought it for me today. Thank you so much for troubling me."
Dong Qingfeng smiled and said, "I'll just wait in line, you just wait and eat!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yanan was moved, but also sighed inwardly. Dong Qingfeng is handsome, good at studying, and speaks nicely.
Unfortunately, he had to buy breakfast for at least three girls every time.
Yu Wen took a sip of soy milk and said, "Dong Qingfeng, you are such a good person, so righteous."
Dong Qingfeng said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter if I work harder, even if I have to queue up in the sun, even if someone cuts in line, but as long as you are happy, everything is worth it!"
Yu Wen was touched by Dong Qingfeng's sincerity. She said with emotion: "If we are divided into different classes in the future, I really don't know who will treat us like you do."
How could Dong Qingfeng bear to see a girl sad
The girls' worries were not just worries; they turned into knives and stabbed into his chest!
Dong Qingfeng recited: "Fallen petals are not heartless, they turn into spring mud to protect the flowers."
On the north side of the classroom, Shan Kaiquan shook his head as he listened.
'Why are there such disgusting people in the world?'
Dan Kaiquan was so sick of it that he almost couldn't finish his fried bun. He drank several big gulps of water and finally felt better.
He had just finished eating the buns when he found Bai Yuxia entering the classroom. Compared to the formal dress she wore yesterday, Bai Yuxia was rarely wearing sportswear today.
The sportswear is a summer style, the top is light white, the collar is light blue and purple, and the sports pants reach the knees.
She lifted her hair in front of her forehead, revealing her white and smooth forehead, looking light and charming.
Shan Kaiquan's eyes widened. She was worthy of being Bai Yuxia. She looked like a goddess in a dress, and still stunning in ordinary clothes.
He drank some water, rinsed his mouth, and then ate a piece of Wrigley gum that Ma Shicheng had given him yesterday.
"Hey, Bai Yuxia, did you see the photo I sent you yesterday?" Shan Kaiquan asked. Yesterday, he specially asked someone to use his mobile phone to take a photo of Bai Yuxia at the entrance ceremony of the sports meeting.
"I've seen it." Bai Yuxia, "It's a good shot. Don't take it next time."
"I don't really like being photographed," she said specifically.
Shan Kaiquan: "Sorry, sorry, I see. I didn't know about this beforehand. I won't film it next time."
Bai Yuxia: "It's okay."
…
After breakfast, Yu Wen found Huang Zhongfei.
"Monitor, do you have a project this morning?"
"There's a high jump."
"Squad leader, you are tall, so you must be good at high jumping. I will be there to cheer for you." Yu Wen was very happy to see the handsome squad leader jumping high. She felt like she had drunk 10 cups of milk tea throughout the day.
Huang Zhongfei is very modest: "I have never practiced high jump, my level is very average."
Yu Wen thought to herself: "You are so handsome, you will look handsome no matter what you do."
After chatting for a while, Huang Zhongfei started to busy himself with class affairs, as there were still a lot of things to do in the sports meet.
"Chen Qian, don't you want to go and take a look?" Huang Zhongfei and Chen Qian were quite close, and he took the initiative to show concern for his classmate.
"No, I'm studying."
Huang Zhongfei said something extra: "Let's take a look. You can read books anytime. The sports meet is only a few days long. You can go to the playground to feel the atmosphere and experience the spirit of hard work."
Chen Qian holds the opposite view: "The fighting spirit in my heart does not need any encouragement. Do you still need to fight when you do what you love?"
“What you love is your life!”
Yu Wen whispered: "Oh my god, I'm going crazy!"
"Monitor, if he wants to read, let him read."
"As a member of the class, you neither participated in the competition nor were willing to go to the playground to cheer and help. You are really something!"
Yu Wen has a hot temper. If the monitor is not around, she will definitely make some sarcastic remarks.
The squad leader quickly took her away.
Chen Qian was left sitting in his seat, his expression calm and unconcerned. What did a little ridicule matter
Huang Zhong flew to the back row to discuss things with Hu Jun.
After seeing this, Yu Wen wanted to leave a good impression in front of the squad leader, so that she would appear to love labor, be able to take care of her small family, and be a woman suitable for marriage.
"Hu Jun, do you need any work that I can help you with? I can do anything!" Yu Wen said proactively.
Hu Jun, the living committee member, thought about it and pointed to two bottles of purified water at the back of the classroom: "Since you said so, these purified waters belong to you. Help me move them to the playground."
Yu Wen's face changed, and she squeezed out a sentence: "Okay, you are cruel!"
…
It wasn't even 8 o'clock in the morning and the sports meet had already started.
All parties proceeded in an orderly manner.
The event that Jiang Ning participated in in the morning was the high jump.
This project is quite interesting, and he received a number slip from the living committee member Hu Jun.
These matters should have been the job of the sports committee member Zhang Chi, but Zhang Chi was fully focused on training and only wanted to win awards and make money, and he didn't care about the trivial matters in the class at all.
"Jiang Ning, I know where the high jump platform is!" Chen Siyu pointed to the southwest corner of the playground, not far from the football goal.
"Well, let's go." Jiang Ning had already seen it.
There were a few people following Jiang Ning, including Bai Yuxia and Yang Sheng.
Yang Sheng signed up for the high jump event. She was in the girls' group, which would be held a little later, so she would inspect the venue in advance.
Squad leader Huang Zhongfei brought Yu Wen and others.
Wu Xiaoqi was holding a basketball and walking slowly on the playground.
Yu Wen looked at him, just like the sun rising from the west: "Wu Xiaoqi, are you participating in the high jump?"
Her tone was full of disbelief. After all, Wu Xiaoqi was only a little over 1.6 meters tall, not even as tall as her!
Wu Xiaoqi heard her doubt and the ridicule of an ignorant woman.
However, Wu Xiaoqi is a strong man, and the road to greatness is filled not only with flowers and glory, but also with groundless suspicion and ridicule.
Wu Xiaoqi never makes too many rebuttals. It doesn’t matter. He will use his powerful strength to break everything and prove his truth with the ball!
The group rushed to the southwest of the playground.
This sports meet is the 60th anniversary of the school and the rewards are generous. Everyone wants to give it a try and join in the fun. Teachers in each class also strongly encourage students to participate, which leads to a large number of registrations.
In their class 8, there are 5 students participating in the men's high jump.
They are Huang Zhongfei, Wu Xiaoqi, Cui Yu, Jiang Ning, and Shan Kaiquan.
These are just one class of students. From the first to the third year of high school, plus the repeater classes, there are a total of 40 classes!
From students with sports expertise to high school students, there is a mixed bag of people, and the level gap between students is huge.
In order to improve efficiency, No. 4 Middle School built two platforms at a time and held the competition at the same time. When the poles were raised to a certain height, they would meet at the same venue for the final.
Jiang Ning is at venue No. 1.
The announcer's voice came from the campus loudspeaker: "Attention, students, the high jump competition is about to begin. Students participating in the competition, please gather at the southwest corner of the playground."
Students from all classes took action upon hearing the news.
Shi Qianjin, who was stationed at Class 9, said, "Chen Xu, high jump is your strong point. Come on, let me show you."
Chen Xu recently started a mobile phone rental business, which brought in a lot of income and made him a lot of money.
He drank half a can of Red Bull and stopped her, saying, "Don't brag, don't brag!"
A boy from Class 10 said, "Brother Xu, why don't you let them go? You're ruining these grandchildren!"
There was a ruffian look on his face and a look of contempt in his eyes, which made people think that he was not a good person. Of course, he was not a good person.
Chen Xu didn't think it was a big deal. This guy's name was Ge Hao. He was a notorious jerk in junior high school. He loved to entangle people to do bad things, so he was called "Rat".
Most students would feel a little scared when seeing someone like Ge Hao.
Recently, Chen Xu's business has been booming, and Ge Hao tried to get closer to him, but Chen Xu just smiled and said, "It's okay to have fun together, but don't expect him to lend you money."
Interestingly, students with low grades and low quality like Ge Hao and Deng Xiang are almost extinct in No. 4 Middle School.
There were many such students in junior high schools before, but when they reached high schools, for example, the threshold of 640 points in No. 4 Middle School was there, so it was impossible for unskilled students to get in.
With that, Chen Xu and Shi Qianjin joined them and set off for the competition.
Wang Longlong from Class 8 saw this and said, "Brother Ma, stop playing, let's go watch the high jump!"
"Based on my many years of watching, high jump is much more interesting than sprinting."
Ma Shicheng looked up and saw people gathering towards the high jump venue. He put his phone in his pocket.
"Let's go."
You can play games on your mobile phone at any time, but you can only do high jump once a year.
…
A thick dark green mat was built at the No. 1 high jump venue to prevent students from getting injured during the high jump.
Physical education teacher Gu Wei explains the rules:
“Third, athletes must jump from one foot.
4. If any of the following situations occurs, the jump attempt will be deemed a failure: 1. If the horizontal bar is knocked off during the jump attempt…”
After explaining the rules, Gu Wei announced the start of the high jump:
"Everyone follow the order. To ensure quality, the first round will start at a height of 1.35 meters."
He pointed to the pole in front of the mat, near which two students were sitting on stools, responsible for adjusting the height.
As soon as Gu Wei said this.
Cui Yu immediately asked: "Fuck, it's so high?"
Meng Gui was also worried about his good brother: "If it were me, I would definitely not be able to make it."
Yang Sheng said: "Jiang Ning, are you completely okay?"
Jiang Ning said: "Simple."
The students around him glanced at Jiang Ning, noticed his height, and said nothing.
In high jump, height is an advantage.
Chen Siyu said: "It's so high, I definitely can't do it."
Yang Sheng said: "For students who have never practiced high jump, most of them can only use the leaping style. 1.35 meters is quite difficult. Even for me, I have to use a lot of strength to get over it."
Gu Wei blew the whistle and the high jump began!
A loud shout came from the loudspeaker: "To the high jump athletes, under the sunshine, the high jump competition venue is particularly brilliant. Athletes, use your agile bodies..."
The first two participating students failed, and the third one was Wu Xiaoqi from Class 8.
As soon as he appeared, he received scrutinizing and questioning looks.
Someone whispered, "It's time for the next person."
Wu Xiaoqi handed the basketball to Shan Xiao, his best friend who was watching the game.
Shan Xiao: “Come on!”
The whistle dropped.
Wu Xiaoqi rushed out from an oblique direction, ran to the high jump pole, pushed off with his left foot, and flew into the air. He then pulled his right foot in and easily cleared the railing, which was beyond everyone's expectation.
No one expected that Wu Xiaoqi, who had such a height disadvantage, could pass the test smoothly.
There was applause all around.
Yu Wen looked forward to it: "Squad leader, this should be easy for you, your legs are so long!"
Huang Zhongfei said nothing, his expression solemn.
Ten or so seconds later, it was Huang Zhongfei's turn to appear on the stage. As expected, he lived up to everyone's expectations and was eliminated in the first round.
Yu Wen: '…'
"It doesn't matter. Everyone has things they are not good at, and handsome guys can't know everything," she said.
Jiang Yanan looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Not necessarily?"
"Brother Gui, it's my turn, it's my turn!" Cui Yu was excited.
Meng Gui: "Go ahead!"
Cui Yu: "Don't worry, you will have a share of the glory I won!"
Finally, Cui Yu appeared.
He gathered all his strength and rushed out in an oblique direction, imitating the students who were jumping over the pole.
Speed up, speed up, and speed up again!
Cui Yu took out the run-up for the 100-meter sprint, like a madly running wild dog.
One student said: "That's a good move!"
"You can tell from your body shape that you are suitable for high jump."
"This sprint will definitely pass!"
Yu Wen didn't leave. When she saw Cui Yu's look, she almost thought he had passed away.
As a result, Cui Yu was too excited and rushed off track. He kicked the upright pole and knocked it flying.
Wang Longlong: "Brother Cui is awesome! He got some equipment!"
After the first round of high jump, Jiang Ning passed the bar easily. His graceful figure attracted the attention of the female classmates, but soon, a more capable boy attracted attention.
In the sports arena, you don’t need to be handsome, strong men are the most attractive to girls.
At the end of the first round, more than half of the students who were just filling in the numbers were eliminated, and three people from Class 8 advanced: Jiang Ning, Wu Xiaoqi, and Shan Kaiquan.
In the second round, physical education teacher Gu Wei was in charge and the pole was directly raised to 1.45 meters.
"Are you confident?" Shan Xiao asked Wu Xiaoqi.
Wu Xiaoqi throws the ball, runs up, and jumps, all in one go:
"That's it?"
Shan Kaiquan also passed the test: "It's not difficult!"
"If you brothers go, just kill them at will."
Geng Lu had gone to cheer for her sister He Qingtang in the competition. Now, she hurried over and said, "Jiang Ning, it's almost your turn, right?"
Jiang Ning pointed to the 1.45-meter pole in front of him: "There are three more people in front."
Geng Lu asked, "Can you make it?"
Jiang Ning said: "Close your eyes."
Geng Lu immediately closed her eyes obediently, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and she was completely defenseless.
Jiang Ning: "...I mean, I closed my eyes."
