Bai Jing was dumbfounded. “Ruan-ge, the 100 meters relies on explosive power. The 5000 meters relies on endurance. High jump and hurdle races are totally different things…”

Even Huang Ya stupidly said, “Ruan-ge, the sports representative also doesn’t have to work so hard. You will die if you do all of those things.”

Ruan Qingmu faintly sneered. “Otherwise, what’s to be done? The boys in Class 9 all simultaneously took off their armor. Are any of them a man?”

The boys shut their mouths. They all looked at each other. Some even looked embarrassed while others lowered their heads.

Amidst the silence, Fang Li, who sat in front of Ruan Qingmu and had been quiet, suddenly opened his mouth. “I also want to sign up for the 5000 meters and high jump.”

The boys secretly looked at him with slightly strange expressions.

The robbery at the girl’s dormitory last time wasn’t solved yet. The local police had come to investigate, but nobody knew anything more about the investigation. Anyway, they didn’t talk to any of the students.

But Fang Li didn’t explain where he had actually gone that night. The boys muttered behind his back and confirmed that no one had indeed seen him that night. The matter became fishier and fishier.

Although they didn’t dare to say it to his face, the voices behind his back never stopped talking about him.

Ruan Qingmu lazily raised his head and looked at him. “Are you sure? Five thousand meters isn’t an easy run.”

Few people would sign up for the 5000 meters every year. Not only was it exhausting, but some people who also ran it did so until they threw up and some even dropped out midway.

It was painstaking and tiring and the points were the same compared to the other categories. Who would willingly participate in this?

Though Fang Li had weak eyes and his face was as pale as usual, his voice was no longer as timid as it used to be. “Mm, I’m sure. There are few people running in the 5000 meters this year. Maybe we can get extra points.”

Bai Jing looked at Fang Li and suddenly also shouted, “I’ll also sign up for the 400 meters. Who cares if we win or not? No matter what, I’ll just run blindly.”

Even the coward Fang Li wasn’t afraid. He wouldn’t be afraid of a damn thing. Formerly, he had promised Old Jian to become the sports representative. But he could only be a tortoise that shrank its neck in the end. Could he be afraid to show up in the sports competition too?

Huang Ya looked at everyone, then at Liu Jun and suddenly kicked a chair. “That’s right. It’s only fucking participating in the sports competition. To be so timid and scared, what kind of man is that!”

It was silent inside the classroom. After a moment, another boy in his dorm also scratched his head. “Sports representative, record my name too. Nobody has signed up for the 200 meters, right? I’ll go for it then.”

It was as if there was an unseen undercurrent flowing through the dreary classroom, slowly heating it up.

Several boys in the dorm next to Bai Jing’s looked at each other and smilingly said, “Our class girls could go for the 4×100 relay. We will also go for it. How about the four people in our dorm go together?”

Niu Xiaoqing shouted, “Be a little serious, boys. Remove Fatty Li from your group. You remaining three won’t be too bad.”

Fatty Li was the big fatty in their dorm and he would usually pant like a dog during the morning run. His face was also always red. “Niu-jie, you’re discriminating against a fat person. It’s fine if you don’t want me. I’ll sign up for the shot put then.”

The awkwardness in the classroom had been broken completely and the lively atmosphere became stronger and stronger. Nobody cared to look at Liu Jun and those several people’s expressions again. Instead, they happily discussed it amongst themselves. Even a few girls who were especially lazy before were eager to give it a try.

“Just randomly sign up for one. As long as we participate, we can get the base point of 0.5 for every participating person.”

“That’s right. They permit the cheerleaders to put on makeup. I will put on beautiful makeup and go running at that time. Don’t forget to take my picture!”

“Hahahaha, why the hell would you put on makeup for a run? Forget it. I will lend you my waterproof foundation when the time comes.”

Tang Tiantian sat beside Ruan Qingmu and helped him record names in a flurry. After writing for a while, she suddenly lowered her head.

Ruan Qingmu turned his head and looked at her slightly red eyes, sighing. “Class monitor, take it easy.” He seriously said, “If you’re like this now, will you cry until fainting when we win first place in the sports competition?”

Tang Tiantian was amused by his words and whispered, “Enough. It’s good if our class can get out of the bottom three this year. “

With the two top sports students, Qin Yuan and Fu Songhua, competing for first place in the sports competition, there was no way they could beat them.
