Even just thinking about it, it’s obvious that the person being called can’t be Soft Bun. You should know that during the last P.E. class, she was already panting with exhaustion before she could finish her first lap… Besides, given how skinny her limbs are, isn’t it practically suicide for her to run 10km?
Soft Bun isn’t a fool, so why would she seek her own death?
Xia Shangzhou: “Boss. Are you saying that there are two Shi Yaos in G University?”
Lin Jiage continued to play on his phone, not bothering to reply to Xia Shangzhou’s question. In his heart, however, he was thinking that the other Shi Yao would surely be nothing compared to his Soft Bun. One was a fairy in the heavens while the other was just a lump of dirt on the ground; other than their names, they had nothing in common with each other…
Seeing how confident Lin Jiage was, Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai decided not to think too much. One went back to resting on his arm while the other took up his binoculars once again and continued scanning the student populace.
After the gunshot, a large group of women dashed off from the starting line.
Resounding waves of cheers echoed from the sidelines again and again.
Lu Benlai was initially observing from the west side of the race track, and while his gaze was moving across the running track, he caught sight of a familiar figure and froze. Then, he quickly traced the figure and stared at her for a moment longer before reaching out to pat Lin Jiage’s shoulder, “Boss, boss, boss! It’s real, it’s real, it’s real!”
Xia Shangzhou was already on the verge of drifting off to dreamland when Lu Benlai’s loud exclamations jolted him awake. Furious, he bellowed, “That’s enough from you! Can’t you fix the knots in your tongue before you speak?”
“I-I-I-I-I…” Lu Benlai repeated several ‘I’s in shock before finally finding the words to express what he really wanted to say. “… That Shi Yao there is ‘that’ Shi Yao!”
Xia Shangzhou still couldn’t comprehend what Lu Benlai was saying, and he sighed, “You don’t just have knots in your tongue, you also lack the basic ability to communicate clearly—”
Before Xia Shangzhou could finish his words, Lin Jiage had already turned his gaze over to the school track.
It took a mere glance before a crease emerged between his brows. After which, he reached out and snatched away Lu Benlai’s binoculars.
“…”
That nose, those eyes, that mouth, and those slender hands and legs… It really is my Soft Bun!
“!!!!!!”
Is Soft Bun insane? For someone who can’t even run 400 meters, she’s actually participating in a 10-kilometer marathon in the Sports Meet?
“??????”
Could it be that the fiancée my grandfather prepared for me is actually a masochist?
Xia Shangzhou finally understood what was going on as well, and he quickly turned to the track to look at the running Shi Yao and remarked, “I-i-i-is this really happening? I-i-i-it is really Little Junior down there?”
Lu Benlai: “Can’t you fix the knots in your tongue before you speak?”
Xia Shangzhou: “Mind your own business!”
Amidst their bickering, Lin Jiage threw the binoculars back into Lu Benlai’s hands and picked up his phone.
In case of an emergency, I should really call an ambulance and have it on standby…
But right after Lin Jiage dialed ‘120’, he suddenly paused.
He pondered for two seconds before he put away his phone and rushed to the side of the school track.
Forget it, I should guard the running track myself. As soon as I see something wrong with her condition, I’ll carry her away from the running track myself…
Seeing that Lin Jiage had rushed away, Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai hurriedly got up and followed him.
While the three of them were making their way to the running track, the person taking the lead in the marathon had already finished her first lap. The person was someone whom they were all familiar with—Qin Yiran.
On the other hand, Shi Yao had only run three-quarters of the track at the moment. Compared to the other runners, her performance could be considered as average.
And when Qin Yiran was one and a half lap in, Shi Yao finally finished her first.
