Bai Qingqing was feeling incredibly anxious when someone suddenly called out to her softly.
âBai Qingqing!â Zhang Xin reached out in her direction while holding a ballpoint pen.
Stunned, Bai Qingqing looked down at her own table. Wasnât that her pen?
Zhang Xin smiled and said, âYou dropped your pen.â
âAh!â It really was hers.
Since Zhang Xinâs arm couldnât stretch out far enough, Tang Li moved over to grab the pen and pass it to Bai Qingqing.
âZhang Xinâs so nice to you, and your boyfriendâs so cool and handsome. Between the two of them, who would you choose?â Tang Li moved closer to Bai Qingqing and whispered, glancing at Zhang Xin as she did so.
Knowing that they were talking about him, Zhang Xin placed a hand under his chin and smiled as he waited for Bai Qingqingâs reaction.
Bai Qingqing wasnât in the mood to reply to Tang Li, much less look at Zhang Xin. She replied half-heartedly, âCurtis.â
âCurtis? Is that his name?â Tang Li said with a wow. âOkay. He doesnât seem like a student. He must already be working. He gives you money to spend, right?â
Bai Qingqing forcefully flicked a finger against Tang Liâs forehead. âFocus on the TV!â
Zhang Xin couldnât hear what they were saying, but from the way Tang Liâs lips moved, he could vaguely make out the word âmoneyâ. His brows immediately furrowed.
Money was something he had plenty of. With some girls, he only wanted to play with them and would use money to keep them by his side; and when he was tired of them, he would simply drop them. But he didnât want to have that sort of relationship with Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing didnât respond, causing Zhang Xin to heave a sigh of relief. She wouldnât be the type to sell her soul for money, right?
Wang Cuiniu had been paying attention to Zhang Xin. Upon seeing this, she gritted her teeth tightly as her face twisted up in anger.
Another swimming event was about to begin. Everyone in the class simultaneously became quiet as Muir was also taking part in this event.
Bai Qingqing quietly prayed for Muir to swim more slowly this time. Please donât perform so outstandingly every time.
The form teacher shook his head and critiqued Muirâs performance from earlier. âThat wasnât his best. He wasted time when entering the water and reaching the finish line. The long-distance swimming events are where he truly shines.â
Bai Qingqingâs heart thumped. She was a little afraid to face reality now.
A student who was on good terms with the form teacher asked curiously, âWhatâs the longest distance swimming event heâs ever taken part in? How much faster was he than the second place?â
The form teacher was very satisfied with this question. He took out his phone, found the relevant news article, and read out with gusto, âOn the XX of XX, in the 1,000m swimming event, the gold medal undoubtedly went to Chinaâs dark horse, Muir, who won by leaving the silver medalist more than half the distance behind.
âIt can be said that as long as Muirâs there, thereâs no competition for the gold medal. Athletes can only do their best to fight for the silver medal...
âIn the end, the editor confesses, âMuir, I want to have your children!ââ
Even the last line was read out in a serious tone by the form teacher, causing the class to instantly erupt into fits of laughter.
âHahaha...â
âMuir, I want to have your children too.â
The corners of Bai Qingqingâs mouth twitched as she discreetly rubbed her belly. Would I get beaten to death if I told everyone that Iâve had Muirâs children before? she thought.
Another event was about to start. This time, the students were no longer nervous. Everyone was cheering wildly, with the girls being more excited than the guys.
Bai Qingqing gave up after hearing the enthusiasm of the whole school.
Muir had already caused a frenzy. No matter how much she prayed, she was just deceiving herself and others. Sigh!
Apart from the relay and diving events, there were a total of 21 menâs swimming events. 21 gold medals were won.
