Early the next morning, when I arrived at school, I was attracted by the lively atmosphere in the school. I came to class with questions and quietly sat in my seat to listen to everyone's discussion. It turned out that... our school was going to hold a sports meet next week. Everyone was discussing what events they should participate in. You have to know that for us third-year students, this was the only sports meet in high school. For some people, this might be the last sports meet in their lives.
Just as I was thinking about it, the sports committee member, Yu Zhiqiang, walked in and clapped his hands. After attracting everyone's attention, he said loudly,"I believe all of you already know that our school will be holding an inter-school sports meet next week!”
This news was finally confirmed. All the students cheered. The pressure of studying for a long time had made us third-year students depressed. Now that we finally had a chance to relax, how could we not be happy?
Pa! Pa! Pa!
He clapped his hands again and said loudly,"Alright…I know that everyone is very happy, but in order to leave us with a good memory, I hope that everyone will actively sign up for the competition. It will mark a perfect end to our high school life and leave us with a good memory.”
All the students laughed and agreed. Yu Zhiqiang had no choice but to knock on the podium to attract everyone's attention. He continued,"Alright, alright, everyone, stop arguing. Now, everyone, register your names according to your strengths. I'll calculate them. Those who have the strength, don't hide your strength. Otherwise, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone began to sign up enthusiastically. Some signed up for the 100m sprint, 200m sprint, 1500m sprint, shot put…high jump, long jump…
I sat in my seat with my head lowered. For a moment, I didn't know if I should sign up. My specialty was long-distance running. Although short-distance running wasn't bad, long-distance running was what I was best at. The villagers all said that I had a pair of dog's lungs. I didn't know how tired I was even after running for a long time.
The reason why I hesitated was because I hadn't signed up for the sports meet every year since I was in high school. Therefore, no one knew how strong I was. I couldn't blame them. I went to junior high school elsewhere, so they didn't know much about me.
He secretly shook his head. If this was a game, he would definitely participate in the competition without hesitation. However…this was not a game, this was reality.
As I pondered, time passed bit by bit. Finally…the sports committee member Yu Zhiqiang's voice rang out again,""Alright, students, the registration for the event is almost done. However…why isn't anyone registering for the 3000m and 5000m? The school has stipulated that at least one person from each class must participate in each event.”
No one answered him. Everyone pretended not to hear what he said. They all laughed and whispered to each other. In fact, they did not understand what they were talking about. It was nothing more than 'have you eaten?' Or did you eat meat today?
Yu Zhiqiang shook his head helplessly and sighed,""Since none of you are willing to take the initiative to sign up, then everyone can recommend someone to participate in the competition. Anyway, my place can't be empty!”
Suddenly…the class quieted down, and then…dozens of pairs of hot eyes looked at me. The next moment…the class was filled with earth-shattering voices…asking him to participate!
I raised my head in shock and looked at the entire class pointing their fingers at me. For a moment, I didn't know what was going on. Why was everyone looking at me like they were going to eat me up? Heavens! Did something happen again?
Seeing my trembling face, Yu Zhiqiang smiled and said softly,"Oh…Xuanyuan, it's like this. Since no one in the class signed up for the 3000m and 5000m events, everyone unanimously recommended you to participate in the competition.”
I swallowed with difficulty and nodded slightly."Alright…since everyone wants me to compete, I'll compete…"
I said a few words without any strength or anger, looking like I was a complete coward. Seeing my performance, everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud. Instantly…laughter erupted in the class.
Yu Zhiqiang sighed and wrote something down on the record sheet. Then, he said disinterestedly,""Alright…I hope that all the students who have signed up will work hard to train their own projects during this period of time. When the time comes, don't embarrass the class. You have to know that it's something that everyone will remember for a lifetime!”
When others heard this, they didn't think much of it, but I took it very seriously. The fear in my eyes gradually disappeared, and I slowly became determined. I decided that I would change everyone's opinion of me in this last high school competition. I would take two first places to show them.
A day passed in the midst of intense and busy studying. When school was over, I was silently packing my bag when suddenly…I realized that someone had patted my shoulder. I turned around and saw that it was a very fierce girl from my class. Her name was Qin Shasha. She was looking at me with a vicious gaze, making me shudder.
When she saw me turn around, she said to me angrily,"Go home and practice hard. Let me tell you, if you embarrass the class in the competition next week, we won't let you off!”
After saying that, she puffed up her round cheeks and quickly walked towards the class door, making me feel like a monk. I couldn't figure it out and stood there in a daze.
Just as I was in a daze, someone patted my shoulder again. This time, it was a girl in my class with a gentle personality. Her name was Shui Rou. She was the kind that would blush when talking to boys. I didn't dare to imagine that she would take the initiative to talk to me.
Seeing me turn around and stare at her blankly, Shui Rou immediately lowered her head. Her entire face and neck turned red. She shyly said to me in a mosquito-like voice,"You…go home…you must practice hard when you go home. Don't let others bully you again.”
I knew what she meant. If I messed up, there would definitely be male students who would find an excuse to bully me. She wanted me to go home and practice properly so that I wouldn't be bullied in the end.
As I watched her quickly walk towards the door, I was about to sigh. Unexpectedly…someone patted me on the shoulder again. I turned around…
Just like that, almost every girl in the class came up to me one by one to either encourage me or threaten me, asking me to work hard and make myself proud. I stared blankly at the girls who came up to me and expressed their opinions. I nodded foolishly and kept muttering in my heart, what's going on! Why are these girls suddenly so concerned about a weak guy like me? Could it be that…women are naturally compassionate and pity the weak?
