Zhao Yanzi?

Hao Ren’s heart skipped a beat. He looked closer and realized there were two girls instead of one who entered the sports field.

Due to the distance, he couldn’t see who the girls were. However, by the color and style of their uniforms, one of them indeed looked a lot like Zhao Yanzi.

“What’s the matter?” Xie Yujia asked as she sensed the weirdness in Hao Ren’s behavior.

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Hao Ren looked at the rostrum that was on the opposite side of the sports field. Yet his kept looking at those two girls.

“There are two of them so it shouldn’t be Zhao Yanzi,” Hao Ren thought.

The students who were warming up went back to their classes one by one. Huang Xujie also returned to the spectator stand and sat down with other junior and senior competitors.

Since junior students were watching the indoor games and senior students were busy with their internship as well as job search, it was not mandatory for them to watch the game. Therefore, the junior and senior competitors’ classmates were mostly not present.

However, it was not a problem for Huang Xujie since he was famous at the school and all the girls around the sports field knew about him. It was safe to say that more than half of them were his supporters.

As the tradition of the Athletic Games, the Principal went up onto the stage to give a speech. It was nothing more special than advocating sports spirit and encouraging students to exercise more.

Following that was a speech from Vice Principal Lu Qing. He gave a brief speech and announced the beginning of the Athletic Games full of energy.

This was the first time Hao Ren saw Lu Qing in public. He would never have thought that the vice principal would offer him “special treatment.”

However, people cared more about the beautiful Su Han who didn’t show up today. But thinking about it, as an ordinary teacher instead of an instructor or a class advisor, she didn’t have to attend Athletic Games at all.

The events focused on majors instead of which year the students were from. The first game was a 400-meter relay race. Participants from the Management Major, Environmental Chemical Engineering Major, Mechatronic Engineering Major, and Life Science Major all went onto the sports field.

Hao Ren noticed that Huang Xujie who was from International Business Administration Major also went up in his golden sportswear.

The girls screamed as she stepped onto the track.

At that moment, Hao Ren glimpsed over at the entrance where the two middle-schoolers were at. He was relieved as they had disappeared.

All the eight participants were in their positions on the track.

Pa! The students representing the eight majors suddenly bolted ahead following the sound of the starting pistol.

“They are all so fast!” Xie Yujia sighed lightly.

Hao Ren knew this would happen since they were all carefully chosen from their majors. They were all elites athletes, and it made sense that they exceeded the level of a high school sports event by a large degree.

Soon, three relays had been completed, and none of the major had missed the passes. The relay batons were handed over to their last contestants.

Hao Ren focused his attention on Huang Xujie because he subconsciously regarded this man as his competitor in the 1500-meter race.

The International Business Administration Major was in the second place when the baton was in the third runner’s hand. He was almost five meters behind the guy from the Mechatronic Engineering Major.

However, Huang Xujie came from behind and chased after that runner after he received the relay baton.

It was extremely difficult to make up those five meters within a 100-meter distance.

The somewhat quiet spectator stand suddenly burst into cheers.

Even Xie Xujia was concentrating on the race, and she stood up lightly.

Five meters! Four meters! Three meters!

Hao Ren opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Huang Xujie had a powerful explosive force, similar to that of a rocket!

The girls’ cheerings turned into screamings.

Zhao Jiayi and the guys who were playing cards all put their hands down to look at the race in astonishment.

Two meters! One meter! They were in a tie!

“Huang Xujie…”

The screaming of his name filled up the entire sports field.

The exciting scene at the beginning of the Athletic Games put a satisfying smile on the school officials’ faces.

Boom!

Huang Xujie ran across the finish line a half-step faster with the relay baton in his hand.

He lifted the baton up high and waved at the audience, showing a winner’s stance.

“Huang Xujie! Huang Xujie!”

The girls started to call out his name rhythmically as the rhythm followed his waving arm.

Huang Xujie was immersed in the happiness of victory. He shook his head as sweat dripped off his black hair. There were pride and satisfaction on his face.

“No wonder he is the president of the Rock Climbing Club,” Xie Yujia sighed as she looked towards the finish line.

“You like him?” Hao Ren asked.

Xie Yujia shook her head. “No. I just think he is pretty cool. His grades are good, and he has a cute face. He even excels in sports. No wonder he is the prince charming in so many girls’ heads.”

“And he comes from a decent family?” Hao Ren added.

Xie Yujia turned around and looked at him, “Are you a little jealous?”

“I am racing with him in the 1500 meter race this afternoon. Will you be cheering for him or me?” Hao Ren shrugged and revealed a smile.

“Of course for you!” Xie Yujia answered without thinking.

He nodded in satisfaction.

“Hey, what are you thinking?” Xie Yujia asked as she suddenly felt something was wrong.

“Nothing. I thought you are one of his fans too,” Hao Ren said lightly.

“I am not one of those girls,” she answered.

However, this comment sounded a bit familiar to Hao Ren.

The cheering of the girls started to fade as the second game started.

Huang Xujie took his time as he returned to his seat. From there, he looked in Hao Ren’s direction.

“Is that a warning?” Hao Ren wondered.

However, the explosive force wasn’t the most important component when it came to long-distance race. Hao Ren calmed himself down, not letting Huang Xujie influence his mood.

The second event was the 110-meter hurdles, and it was a relatively new event. It started to gain popularity amongst university Athletic Games after Liu Xiang became the Olympic champion.

“Here you go,” Xie Yujia opened up a bottle of water and handed it to Hao Ren.

She gave her own to him as she noticed that Hao Ren came empty-handed.

“Thank you, Class President.” Hao Ren laughed in embarrassment.

“You need to replenish your stamina for the race this afternoon,” she said.

Zhou Liren and the guys got very jealous seeing how nice Xie Yujia was treating Hao Ren. They were all regretting their decision for not enrolling in the game. Otherwise, it was worth it even if they got the last place because the beautiful Xie Yujia would be taking care of them.

But unlike them, Hao Ren was feeling a little uncomfortable with Xie Yujia’s special care.

Just when he was feeling restless, a crisp and melodious voice came from behind him.

“Uncle!”
