Shen Ge was developing rapport with the other three boys who were running the relay race, while Chi Yi did some warm-up exercises and stood on the track ready to give it a try.

　　The sports committee patted him on the shoulder and said, “Don’t force yourself if you can’t finish. It’s a 5,000-meter race, and every year there are people who walk away or give up at the end. Don’t force yourself to run if you really can’t do it.”

　　Chi Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.

　　Chi Yi stood on the track, but saw that there seemed to be some noise over at Shen Ge’s place. Several tall boys were pointing and talking near them with a mocking tone.

　　The Sports Committee member and Chi Yi looked at each other and walked towards Shen Ge and the others.

　　Shen Ge said to the athlete next to him with a cold face: “It’s just practice, is it necessary to laugh at others?”

　　One of them sneered, “We don’t have a relay race where we can drop the baton. What’s the point of practicing this? You might as well just lose to us.”

　　Chi Yi looked at these athletes and said with a smile, “You care so much about winning or losing in the sports meet, is it because you can’t compete with them in terms of grades?”

　　The people who were just laughing at Shen Ge and the others were embarrassed. The leader saw Chi Yi and remembered that someone had transferred to the school recently. He suddenly realized, “Are you the new transfer student? You are so arrogant. Are you not good at both studying and sports? Dare we compete? Let’s compete in the event you signed up for.”

　　So boring.

　　Chi Yi put his hands in his pockets and said casually: “What if I win?”

　　He sneered, as if he didn’t believe Chi Yi would win at all, and said, “How about the loser calling the other person dad in front of the whole class?”

　　Shen Ge clenched his fists and couldn’t help but say, “You were the ones who laughed at us first, don’t go too far!”

　　”What, are you scared?” The athlete didn’t care at all and even provoked Chi Yi, but he didn’t expect Chi Yi to respond to him: “Yes, I’m scared.”

　　Chi Yi held Shen Ge’s shoulders and signaled him to calm down: “I’m afraid that having a son like you will ruin my reputation.”

　　”Puchi!” Someone couldn’t help laughing, and the person opposite was angered.

　　”You f**k!” The sports student raised his fist to hit him, but Chi Yi stood still, caught his fist with one hand, and twisted his wrist hard. The other party was about to attack, but suddenly there was a shout from not far away: “What are those students doing over there? The school is not a place for you to fight!”

　　Chi Yi put down his fist and said politely to the teacher: “Hello, teacher, we were training, but who knew they would not only laugh at us but also hit us, I just waved his hand away.”

　　The sports student didn’t seem to expect Chi Yi to tell on him, and he loudly retorted in front of the teacher: “You’re talking nonsense! It was obviously you who twisted my hand!”

　　The teacher looked at the foul-mouthed man in front of him, frowned and said, “Are you Zhao Jun from Class 12? I saw you were about to hit someone just now, and now you dare to curse in front of the teacher! All of you come back with me, I will have a good talk with your class teacher about this matter!”

　　The teacher took Zhao Jun and the others away, but Shen Ge’s anxiety did not diminish: “Next week is the sports meet, and you are not a sports major. What if you lose?”

　　”That’s right, those guys will definitely come and cause trouble again. How can our relay race bother them? And yet they have to come and make fun of us.”

　　”Zhuang Hao, how about we talk to the teacher?”

　　The sports committee member was not very good at handling this kind of thing, and he scratched his head in confusion: “Will the teacher take care of it?”

　　Chi Yi was the most relaxed one among them at this moment, and even had the leisure to joke with Shen Ge: “What’s wrong, are you afraid that I will lose?”

　　[You care about me so much, could it be that you like me? Apart from anything else, I am still very handsome. ]

　　Seeing that he was not worried about losing at all, and was secretly teasing himself in his heart, Shen Ge suddenly felt a little angry for some reason. Chi Yi found that Shen Ge was angry because of him, and quickly pretended to be serious: “I won’t lose.”

　　In the past, he couldn’t afford the school accommodation fees, and when he ran home after school every day, he had to walk even farther than this.

　　It’s just five kilometers, just sprinkle some water.

　　The annoying people were taken away by the teacher, and Shen Ge and the others decided to practice for a while while they still had time. They were just laughed at by those people, and now everyone was holding their breath, so they couldn’t do it too badly anyway.

　　Chi Yi stood on the track again, running slowly forward, counting silently in his mind how many laps he had run.

　　The result was that when Chi Yi and Shen Ge returned home that night, Chi Yi was still fine, but Shen Ge’s fatigue was clearly written on his face. When their son said it was because of the sports meeting, Chi’s father and mother looked at each other and asked, “Ayi, can parents go to your sports meeting?”

　　This was their first time to participate in Shen Ge’s sports meet, and also Chi Yi and Shen Ge’s last sports meet in high school. It was very meaningful to them.

　　Chi Yi didn’t know, so he turned to look at Shen Ge. Shen Ge nodded and said it was okay, but he had to tell the teacher in advance, otherwise there would be no seat.

　　Chi Yi was about to say it was okay, but the last conversation he had with Shen Ge suddenly popped up in his mind.

　　Chi Yi was silent for a moment, then looked up at his father and mother and said hesitantly, “I signed up for the 5,000-meter race. Can you cheer me on?”

　　Father and Mother Chi seemed a little stunned, then immediately responded with a smile: “Then we must cheer you on! When the time comes, we will also call Sister Zhang and her husband to come and cheer you on!”

　　”Um.”

　　Chi Yi lowered his head and buried his face in the bowl to eat. Shen Ge also quietly approached Chi Yi and whispered:

　　”I’ll cheer you on, too… Ayi!”
