The mid-term exams had just ended, and the annual school sports meet was just around the corner. The day's P.E. class was the boys '1500m sprint and the girls' 800m sprint. The physical education class of Zhongzhou Seventh High School would arrange a few units every semester. After each unit, there would be a test for this item. Of course, every year, there would also be five sports standards tests and a few free activities in the class schedule.
The boys and girls usually had separate classes, but on this day, they were tested together. The first test was the girls '800m sprint. Of course, Jiang Zhihan's eyes followed Ni Shang. She was wearing a light red tracksuit with short sleeves and shorts. When she ran, her braids were up and down, and she looked youthful and energetic. Ni Shang's sports results were considered good, although not the best. The 800m sprint was the most troublesome for girls, but she was third in the class.
Next was the boys 'test. Some of the girls had already left in twos and threes. The remaining half sat under the shade of the tree to rest and chattered. Seventh High's track and field track was not the most standard. The track was less than 300 meters per lap, so it took more than five laps to run 1500 meters. Jiang Zhihan's physical fitness was no longer the same as before after days of continuous long-distance running, sprinting, and swimming training, as well as Qi training and breathing exercises. It was unknown how much his physical fitness had improved.
As soon as the test began, he easily ran in front. After two laps, the line slowly opened up. There were five people running in the first group. Jiang Zhihan regulated his breathing and ran in the first group, looking very relaxed. Halfway through the third round, there were only three people left in the first group: Jiang Zhihan, the sports committee member Kuang Jun, and the top sports student in class, Yu Chengzhi. Jiang Zhihan still chose to follow them. When there was only one lap left, Yu Chengzhi began to speed up his sprint. Kuang Jun tried his best to keep up for more than ten meters before he fell behind. Jiang Zhihan followed him closely. Yu Chengzhi was very experienced. He adjusted his pace, wanting to drag Jiang Zhihan down. Jiang Zhihan was unmoved and followed closely behind him. At this moment, Jiang Zhihan felt that his breathing rhythm was very well adjusted, so he was very confident. At the last bend, where the girls were sitting, there were already girls cheering for this sudden long-distance race. Without waiting for Yu Chengzhi to react, Jiang Zhihan suddenly accelerated at the bend. He rushed from the outer circle to the front. With a few steps of acceleration, he was already in front of Yu Chengzhi. He cut into the inner circle and established the lead. In the last 100-meter sprint, Yu Chengzhi tried to surpass it one last time. In the end, he had to accept the fate of failure. Within a week, not only did Jiang Zhihan become the model student of Class 3, but he also made a name for himself in PE class.
When Jiang Zhihan walked back from the finish line, there were still some students who had not finished running on the track. Jiang Zhihan was the first to leave. From afar, he saw Ni Shang standing in the last row of all the girls. She clapped her hands gently in front of her chest. Jiang Zhihan placed his right hand in front of his chest and bowed slightly, making a gesture of thanks. The distance was very far, and his movements were very small. The other girls should not have noticed, but he clearly saw a happy smile on Ni Shang's face, and her two curved eyes narrowed into a line.

Next Monday to Thursday was the four-day school sports meet. All registration must end on Saturday and be submitted to the school's sports team for filing. Today was the last day to submit the name list. Ni Shang walked into the classroom and sat down in her seat. She frowned and pouted as she snorted twice. From a very young age, Ni Shang was taught by her father to be educated and to know how to restrain herself. She did not want to express her emotions in words. Gradually, she also got used to this kind of behavior. In the eyes of the students and teachers, they always saw a smiling Ni Shang, a calm Ni Shang, and a polite Ni Shang. Perhaps her manners and maturity surpassed her age, or perhaps her excellence made some people jealous. Many times, she was interpreted as a hypocritical Ni Shang, a Ni Shang wearing a mask, and a scheming Ni Shang. Ni Shang did not deny that she was good at hiding some emotions, especially negative emotions, but she insisted that this was the right choice. Was it wrong to smile at others?
In the past two months, Ni Shang had been quietly changing since she moved into a new environment and had a new deskmate. She also didn't realize that she liked to reveal more of her true and unconcealed emotions around Jiang Zhihan. This boy was sometimes very mature, to the point of being a little mysterious. Sometimes, he was very polite, listening with a smile and encouraging her softly. Sometimes, he was very arrogant, full of confidence that he could handle everything, and disdained the childishness or ignorance of others. Sometimes, he would become very lively and tell all kinds of jokes to mock her. But in the end, Ni Shang felt that he could be trusted. Trustable meant that you could express your emotions, success and failure to him, and he would tell you that he understood, he accepted, and he was willing to share your joys and sorrows.
Jiang Zhihan raised his eyebrows and asked,"Who made the class monitor angry?"”
"Yu Chengzhi said he sprained his ankle, so he won't be participating in the 1500m and 5000m. He won't be participating in the 4X400m either.”
Jiang Zhihan said," Why? Are you asking me to stay in the line of fire with minor injuries?”
"He's not injured at all!”
"Are you sure?" Jiang Zhihan asked.
"Of course," Ni Shang said.
Jiang Zhihan knew that Ni Shang was not an unreasonable person and always had reliable sources of information, so he said,""If you don't want to participate, then so be it. Without him, how can the earth not rotate?”
Ni Shang said angrily,"He said in the dormitory at noon that the chances of winning the prize at 1500 yuan were slim, so he didn't want to suffer. I saw him lying in front of me just now and even said it so confidently. I was furious."”
Jiang Zhihan said,"Although I agree with your famous saying, there must be someone to do the things in the class. However, there are some things that you have tried your best to do. If you can't do it, you should leave it to Teacher Zhang. He had his own perspective and methods.”
"This time, we changed the men's 3000 meters to 5000 meters. This 5000 meters is really too long. No one is willing to go. Now, other than you, no one else in our class has signed up. There are still two empty spots. Teacher Zhang had said that out of all the individual events, the 5000m sprint was the only one that counted double points. It was very important to the class's total points. Furthermore, it was very likely that the person who completed the race would be able to place in the top six, so they had to sign up for three places.”
Jiang Zhihan said,"To be honest, isn't this the responsibility of the sports committee? As the class monitor, you've stretched your hand too far.”
"How can that be?" Ni Shang said. Kuang Jun complains to me every day, saying that he has gone to every dormitory twice in the boys 'dormitory (Class 3 has both students who live on campus and students who don't live on campus), and no one listens to him.”
Jiang Zhihan said," This is actually simple. You can ask Kuang Jun to pass the name list to Teacher Zhang. He will see that there are two people missing, so he will definitely ask Kuang Jun who is the best at long-distance running in the class and has the highest chance of getting a place. Kuang Jun will definitely exclude himself first. He has a legitimate reason. He has already participated in three individual events, and he has a higher chance of winning the other events. If that was the case, Zhang laoshi would naturally talk to those people after he gave them their names. If Teacher Zhang went to talk to them and you guys went to talk to them, the effect would be different.”
"I always feel that this is not good. It was better to participate in the sports meet voluntarily. Moreover, the 5000m sprint was so tiring. It was not good to force others to participate.”
Jiang Zhihan said,"If Teacher Zhang wants to gather three people, it will be a chaotic life.”
"Teacher Zhang is doing this for the honor of the class, so there's nothing wrong with it." Ni Shang protested.”
Jiang Zhihan said," So, you want to convince someone to participate voluntarily. You don't force them, and you still have to consider the honor of the class.”
Ni Shang nodded and said yes.
Jiang Zhihan laughed." It's a pity. Although the class monitor's charm is great, it can't compare to the suffering of the 5000m sprint in the boys 'hearts."”
Ni Shang rolled her eyes at him, and Jiang Zhihan continued,""Except for me."
Ni Shang turned her head away and ignored him. Jiang Zhihan could clearly see that her ears were unusually red, and he couldn't help but feel happy that he had successfully teased the class monitor again.
Ni Shang felt a little sweet in her heart. Two days ago, when he looked for Jiang Zhihan and asked him to sign up for the 4x400, 1500, and 5000m events, he felt a little embarrassed. Because these three events were considered the toughest, and the competitions were connected. However, Jiang Zhihan's performance in the 1500-meter test made him the most likely candidate to win the third class monitor race. In the end, Jiang Zhihan only glanced at him and said,""Sure," "It might be tiring," Ni Shang said worriedly.”"It's alright. I still have to run every morning without this." Jiang Zhihan told her calmly.”Ni Shang had been looking for people to participate in the 5000m sprint for the past two days, but she had run into a wall everywhere. She recalled that Jiang Zhihan had never been someone who valued the honor of his class. It was actually quite appropriate for him to call himself an anarchist. Then why did he agree to participate in the three most difficult projects without hesitation? Ni Shang faintly felt that it was because of her, and she was a little proud of it.
