Rebirth of a Girl in a Boys' School

"You want to have a high jump competition with this kid?" After carefully examining the bar, the eldest brother, Tao Yushun, hurriedly whispered, "This kid has already cleared 1.5 meters. Do you really have a chance of winning?"

Lin Ruofei smiled slightly but did not answer.

"What do you want to bet?" Zhang Yang, standing opposite Lin Ruofei, looked at her and asked, guessingly, "Do you want to bet that I'll stay in my dorm room for a week?"

Lin Ruofei gave a thumbs up and uttered two words: "Smart!"

"Zhang Yang, do you have any objections?" Yu Jialiang said angrily, "If you agree, I'll have a match with this brat. If he loses, he can get out of Yucai immediately!"

“It’s a deal!” Lin Ruofei immediately agreed.

"Haha...Great, another betting game is about to begin!" someone in the crowd laughed heartily.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruofei knew without even looking that the gambling king Feng Yongsheng must have arrived!

"He Shun!" Gambling King Feng Yongsheng stepped out from the crowd and cheerfully greeted his assistant He Shun, who was following behind him, saying, "Hurry up and set up the betting! Yu Jialiang is 1 to 2, and Lin Ruofei is 1 to 10..."

"Got it!" The shrewd He Shun immediately took out his notebook and pen and quickly started calling on his classmates to place bets.

Seeing that her classmates, despite having come out completely naked without a penny, were already placing bets on the high jump competition between herself and Yu Jialiang set up by gambling king Feng Yongsheng using IOUs, Lin Ruofei couldn't help but show a troubled expression...

"Brother Lin..." Tao Yuxin, the third brother, noticed Lin Ruofei's worried expression and leaned close to her ear, whispering, "Are you not entirely confident that you can beat Yu Jialiang?"

Lin Ruofei nodded gently and replied softly, "To be honest, I'm not really sure about my current physical condition, so it's hard to say how high I can jump. I thought if I couldn't beat that kid, I could just cheat, but now that the gambling king Feng Yongsheng has gotten involved, it'll probably take some effort to get away with it if I lose..."

"Brother Lin, don't be nervous, just do your best! We three brothers will always support you!" The youngest, Tao Yuxin, raised his hand and shouted, "Go! Go!!"

"Thank you!" Lin Ruofei nodded gratefully, then handed the pillow in her hand to the third brother, Tao Yuxin, and went to the side to do some warm-up exercises.

The third brother, Tao Yuxin, immediately grabbed the eldest brother, Tao Yushun's arm and whispered, "Big brother, hurry up and go to He Shun's place a bet on Yu Jialiang to win. Brother Lin said he's not confident he can win!"

"Roger that!" The eldest brother, Tao Yushun, immediately ran towards He Shun, who was standing to the side surrounded by the crowd...

Besides Tao Yuxin, the third brother, there was another person who could tell that Lin Ruofei wasn't entirely confident.

Just as Lin Ruofei was enthusiastically warming up, she suddenly heard someone whisper behind her, "Are you even capable?"

Lin Ruofei turned around and saw that it was Zhang Yang talking to her.

“Liangzi has been on the school track and field team since junior high,” Zhang Yang whispered. “And his best event is the high jump. I advise you to withdraw the bet as soon as possible if you think you can’t do it!”

"I know you just don't want me to stay in your dorm!" Lin Ruofei didn't care about Zhang Yang's words and continued doing her warm-up exercises.

"If you can't beat Liangzi, you'll have to leave Yucai Boys' High School!" Zhang Yang said this nervously, and even he himself was a little surprised!

"Perhaps it's because she once saved my life that I'm a little worried about her..." Zhang Yang finally found a perfectly reasonable reason for himself.

"Hmph... Thank you for your concern!" Lin Ruofei said proudly, "Actually, I also wanted to tell you: I was selected as a provincial team athlete when I was just starting elementary school. My nickname is 'Decathlon,' which means I'm good at all sports! Even the provincial team coach was really troubled for a long time when choosing a sport for me, because I had achieved good results in several field and track events in provincial competitions. So, for a long time during my training with the provincial team, I received professional training in every sport I was good at. If my parents hadn't been so adamant about not letting me continue my sports career, I probably would have won at least an Olympic gold medal by the time I graduated from high school!"

"You're just bragging!" Zhang Yang's face was full of disbelief. "Be careful the wind doesn't blow your tongue!"

“I don’t like hearing that. How can you call it ‘bragging’?” Lin Ruofei said, flexing her ankles. “I’ll give you a jump first, and you’ll see how good I am!” After saying that, Lin Ruofei got into a running start position.

"Are you really that good or just pretending...?" Before Zhang Yang could finish speaking, Lin Ruofei, like a mad cow, yelled and rushed out...

Lin Ruofei's scream attracted everyone's attention. In the blink of an eye, Lin Ruofei fell heavily onto the foam mat under everyone's gaze... Following behind Lin Ruofei, what fell onto the foam mat along with the horizontal bar that Lin Ruofei had knocked down was the two 'flip-flops' that Lin Ruofei was wearing.

"Big brother, quickly increase the bet on Yu Jialiang to win!" The third brother, Tao Yuxin, rushed to the eldest brother, Tao Yushun, and said anxiously, "It looks like Xiao Linzi definitely can't beat Yu Jialiang!"

After witnessing Lin Ruofei's high jump with her slippers flying everywhere, many people have shifted their bets from Lin Ruofei to Yu Jialiang.

Lin Ruofei, however, calmly picked up her slippers from the foam mat and walked back to Zhang Yang's side.

"Look what I said!" Zhang Yang said anxiously in a low voice, "How can someone with your skill level beat Liangzi? Cancel the bet right now!"

"What size are your feet?" Lin Ruofei ignored Zhang Yang's suggestion and simply looked down at Zhang Yang's feet to ask.

“Size 43.” Zhang Yang retorted, “What are you going to do? Are you going to borrow another pair of shoes to continue the competition? Maybe… maybe you shouldn’t compete at all, and I’ll just take the dorm…”

Before Zhang Yang could finish saying he was lending out his dorm room, Lin Ruofei ran off happily.

Lin Ruofei ran away because she suddenly saw Ding Yilin standing in the crowd waving vigorously at her.

"Little Dingding, so you're here!" Lin Ruofei quickly ran to Ding Yilin's side.

"Lin Ruofei, it's not too late..." Ding Yilin anxiously advised, "You should cancel your bet with Yu Jialiang as soon as possible!"

"How big are your feet?" Lin Ruofei asked, staring at the sneakers Ding Yilin was wearing.

“37 yards,” Ding Yilin replied.

"Great!" Lin Ruofei quickly took off her slippers and said to Ding Yilin, "Your shoe size is the same as mine, quickly take off your shoes and lend them to me!"

"Lin Ruofei!" Ding Yilin shouted anxiously, "Stop being stubborn! Quickly go and tell the gambling king to cancel the bet!"

"Little Dingding, trust me!" Lin Ruofei smiled slightly and said confidently, "I have my own plan!"

Based on past experience, Ding Yilin knew that he couldn't persuade Lin Ruofei anymore, so he took off his sneakers and lent them to her, then put on her slippers.

"Little Dingding," Lin Ruofei said, turning her back to Ding Yilin after putting on her sneakers, "Could you please tuck the hood of my pajamas inside my clothes? It kept wobbling around when I was jumping!"

Ding Yilin obediently tucked the bull's head hood of Lin Ruofei's pajamas neatly into the back of her clothes.

"Great!" Lin Ruofei raised her right hand proudly and shouted, "Brothers who placed bets on me, get ready to count your money until your hands are sore!"

"cut!"

Everyone shushed Lin Ruofei without giving her any face...

Having already spent half a day warming up, Yu Jialiang called out loudly to Lin Ruofei, "Ready?"

"We can start anytime!" Lin Ruofei confidently walked to Yu Jialiang's side and asked with a smile, "Who should start dancing first?"

"Whatever you want!" Yu Jialiang waved his hand and said, "I can jump first or later, it doesn't matter."

"The pressure of jumping backward is too great, I think I'll jump backward instead!" Lin Ruofei said with great composure.

"You should jump first!" Yu Jialiang said sarcastically to Lin Ruofei, "So that you won't deny it later after I beat you!"

"Okay, I'll jump first." Lin Ruofei nodded and walked towards the horizontal bar...

At this moment, the horizontal bar was 1.5 meters high. Lin Ruofei, who approached the horizontal bar, raised it to 1.7 meters without hesitation.

Standing at only 1.65 meters tall, Lin Ruofei looked up at the horizontal bar and smiled smugly.

"How is it? Is this height okay?" Lin Ruofei turned around and walked back to Yu Jialiang's side, asking with a smile.

“This height… if you have no problem with it, I have no problem with it either!” Yu Jialiang retorted without backing down.

"Kid, you'd better open your eyes wide and watch carefully!" Lin Ruofei said, then walked to the starting position, ready to run and jump.

"Go Lin Ruofei!"

"Go for it, Lin Ruofei!"

Among the onlookers, a few people who had bet on Lin Ruofei began to loudly cheer for her.

Lin Ruofei confidently waved to the crowd before seriously preparing to jump.

Lin Ruofei quickly took a long, curved run-up, her movements very natural. When she reached the bar, she jumped off one foot, clearing the bar in a 'fovea jump' style, landing on her back first on the foam mat.

After Lin Ruofei landed on the sponge mat, the crossbar stubbornly swayed a few times before finally coming to rest quietly on the pole stand.

"Oh!"

"Great!"

Excited cheers immediately rang out.

"Xiao Linzi, you've gone too far! Why didn't you tell me you were coming back for class?"

An angry voice rang out from the sparse cheers.

Lin Ruofei sat up from the foam cushion and immediately saw Gao Qiang angrily walking towards her.

"Why didn't you tell me you had this ability sooner?" Gao Qiang walked straight up to Lin Ruofei, pulling her up from the foam mat as he complained angrily, "If you had participated in the field events at today's 'School Anniversary Season,' our group definitely wouldn't have been 'completely wiped out'!"

"To be honest..." Lin Ruofei leaned close to Gao Qiang's ear and whispered, "I didn't know I had this ability!"

Looking at Gao Qiang's eyes, which were wide open in surprise but still didn't seem very big, Lin Ruofei nodded seriously.

"Could you be the legendary 'sports genius'?" the strongman Gao Qiang asked in surprise.

Lin Ruofei shook her head and then turned to walk towards Yu Jialiang, who was already standing at the starting line.

In fact, Lin Ruofei meant that she hadn't participated in these sports since graduating from high school. Although she was once a "legend" in the sports world during her middle school years, so many years had passed that even Lin Ruofei herself didn't know what level she was at now after "returning to her youth".

However, Gao Qiang's understanding was that Lin Ruofei had extraordinary athletic talent, so she could do any sport very well as long as she practiced it casually!

"Are you ready?" Lin Ruofei said to Yu Jialiang, who was clearly a little nervous. "If you're ready, then dance!" Lin Ruofei waved her hands triumphantly and started singing loudly and incoherently, "Dance! Dance!! Let's dance together..."

"You brat, don't try to cause trouble!" Guo Yang stepped forward and pulled Lin Ruofei away: "Stay away!"

"Fine, I'll walk a bit further away..." Lin Ruofei curled her lip in disdain and said, "So that you won't be able to jump over it later and will complain about me again!"

After saying that, Lin Ruofei turned around and quickly walked back to the horizontal bar.

"I said..." Lin Ruofei leaned close to the strong man Gao Qiang and whispered, "When this kid jumps later, try to find a way to distract him and prevent him from succeeding!"

"What do you mean?" Qiangren Gaoqiang asked, puzzled.

Before Lin Ruofei could answer, a small group of boys who had taken the risk of betting on her to win excitedly surrounded her...

"Lin, you're amazing!"

"Lin, thank you so much for helping us win money!"

"From now on, we'll bet on you to win every time we have a betting game..."

"Don't rush to sing praises, and don't be too happy..." Lin Ruofei waved her hand to stop the chattering crowd, then continued in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, this height is my best result at this stage, and it's a once-in-a-century achievement..."

"You mean you can only jump over a height of 1.7 meters, and it's rare for you to successfully jump over it even once?" Strongman Gao Qiang hurriedly asked.

Lin Ruofei nodded seriously.

Upon hearing this, the bettors were immediately shocked, their previous excitement vanishing.

A boy standing next to Gao Qiang forced a smile and said, "Haha, Lin, we're all friends here, so you don't need to be modest with us. Look how confident you were when you jumped just now!"

"That was just an act," Lin Ruofei said sincerely, "Actually, I was incredibly unsure of myself when I was jumping!"

"Sigh, things have come to this..." Gao Qiang patted Lin Ruofei on the shoulder and said sympathetically, "We can only hope that Yu Jialiang won't be able to get through this!"

No sooner had Gao Qiang finished speaking than Yu Jialiang rushed over...
