Orc Undead Sports Warrior
Chapter 14 Warm Home
Ningcheng's main urban area is not large; it only takes Lu Wei about 20 minutes to get home by bus.
On the bus, Lu Wei saw a constant stream of various vehicles on the road. This was the first time Lu Wei had seen cars since his transmigration. Although he had some concept of cars in his memory, seeing them in person still made him extremely happy.
In Lu Wei's memory, he had already taken his driving test during the summer vacation after graduating from high school, but he had never touched a car since then. After all, it only took half an hour to get from home to school, and it was just as convenient without a car.
Of all the vehicles, Lu Wei was most interested in off-road vehicles; he longed to have his own. However, as a university student with limited financial resources, and a proud orc like himself couldn't very well ask his family for money to buy a car.
The quickest way to buy a car these days is to earn more money through track and field competitions. At the Ningcheng Track and Field Championships, Lu Wei won two titles: the 400-meter dash and the shot put. Each title comes with a prize of 1 yuan, and he also received 1 yuan for breaking the provincial record in the shot put.
So, I already have 3 yuan in hand. If I can win the national championship, the prize money will probably be several times that amount, not to mention the prize money if I win the world championship.
Lu Wei quickly returned home based on his memory. He took out his key and tried to open the door himself. However, he failed twice and only managed to open the door after several attempts.
Upon opening the door, he was greeted by his mother from this world. She heard someone open the door and knew it was her son. However, she could only hear the key being inserted into the lock, and after several attempts, she couldn't open the door. So she went to the door to check the situation.
Upon seeing Lu Wei return, his mother immediately beamed with joy: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming back today? I could have prepared dinner for you in advance. Your father and I were originally planning to reheat the leftovers from lunch to make do. But with my son back, we can't let him eat leftovers. Wait here, Mom will cook you two dishes."
“You went to the track and field championships today and now you know the gap between yourself and the professional athletes! But it’s okay, just treat it as exercise and gain some experience!” Lu Wei’s father was also at home. When he applied to the sports college in college, his family did not approve, and his father was the most opposed.
Both of Lu Wei's parents are teachers, and they strongly hope that he will choose to study finance and pursue a career in that field. Lu's father often follows the country's development and believes that the country will focus on economic development for a long time, so working in this industry will definitely have a good future.
To my surprise, Lu Wei, despite having decent grades, chose to attend a sports academy, a decision I strongly disagreed with at the time. However, Lu's father was ultimately quite open-minded and respected Lu Wei's decision.
After entering university, Lu Wei's performance in his specialty did not improve much. In this competition, Lu's father had a preconceived notion that Lu Wei would have a hard time winning anything.
"Well... in this competition, I won the 400-meter and shot put titles." Lu Wei didn't show any pride when he spoke; in his mind, these achievements were nothing special.
"Haha, you little rascal, you're making fun of your old man!" Mr. Lu laughed so hard he almost fell over. He knew that his son's best time in the 400 meters was only a little over 47 seconds, which was only enough to qualify him as a first-class athlete, a feat that could be found in many places in the province.
"Look, this is the competition certificate. I'm not kidding you." Lu Wei found it amusing. This father of Lu really looked down on his son. It seemed that the original owner of the body hadn't worked very hard in college.
"Huh? Really? Let me see!" Mr. Lu took the certificate from Lu Wei's hand. It clearly stated: Congratulations to Lu Wei for winning first place in the 400-meter race at the Ningcheng Track and Field Championships with a time of 45.84 seconds. This certificate is issued as encouragement.
The certificate also bears the seal of the Ningcheng Sports Bureau, so it seems to be correct.
"So fast! I remember this result would have placed you in the top three at one National Games!" Mr. Lu exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the certificate. As a sports enthusiast who follows many competitions, he immediately recognized the significance of Lu Wei's 400-meter time.
Looking at the next certificate, Mr. Lu was even more surprised. In his memory, Lu Wei usually focused on the 400 meters and had never heard him mention that he had also practiced shot put.
Upon checking the certificate, Lu Wei's shot put score was a staggering 20.05 meters. Lu's father grabbed his reading glasses, worried he might be mistaken, and wanted to double-check Lu Wei's result.
"You're something else, kid. You can count the number of people in the country who can shoot over 20 meters on one hand." Mr. Lu looked up at Lu Wei and noticed that in just a few days, his son had become much more robust and his demeanor had changed, exuding a strong masculine aura.
Lu Wei was originally a transmigrator. He was not afraid in front of outsiders, but he felt a little guilty in front of his biological parents.
"Dad, what are you looking at? Don't you recognize your son?" Lu Wei said, half-probing and half-joking.
"Yeah, after physical training, you're like a real man now! The charm of sports lies in the fact that it can not only strengthen your body, but also change a person's temperament from the outside in. Not bad, you didn't embarrass your old man, hahaha!"
Mr. Lu's laughter attracted Mrs. Lu from the kitchen: "What are you two having so much fun about? I can hear your dad laughing even with the range hood on!"
"Let me show you our son's good news." With that, Mr. Lu handed the certificate to Mrs. Lu.
Seeing her son's success, Lu's mother was naturally delighted. After handing the certificate to Lu Wei, she said, "My son, you're doing great! Wait, Mom will cook your favorite spicy stir-fried rooster for you. I've been waiting for you to come back so I can make it for you. It'll be a good way to celebrate!"
"Bring out the liquor we keep at home too. I'm happy today, I want to have a couple of drinks!" Mr. Lu said with a beaming smile.
"What a happy family! It feels so good to have a home!" After transmigrating, Lu Wei was deeply moved by the warm family atmosphere. Before he came of age, his father had never returned after a battle. After he became an adult, he also had a family, but after the Burning Legion appeared, his family of three was reduced to just him...
Soon after, Lu's mother brought the dishes to the table; they were all Lu Wei's favorite dishes.
At the dinner table, Lu Wei told his parents that he was going to focus all his efforts on preparing for the track and field competition, and then use the prize money to buy an off-road vehicle so that he could participate in rally races in the future.
When Lu's mother heard that her son wanted to participate in a rally race, which was considered quite dangerous, she was a little worried: "He's only just started to make a name for himself in track and field. Why does he suddenly want to participate in such a dangerous competition?"
“We’re getting old, and we can’t interfere with the young people’s affairs. As long as you can earn money to buy a car, we won’t interfere. But we still have some advice for you. First, focus on one thing: master track and field before thinking about other things. Second, you are a student now, so you should focus on your main job. Your mother and I have been teachers all our lives, and we still hope that our child will have a bachelor’s degree. You have to make sure you graduate smoothly.”
Lu Wei immediately patted his chest and promised that he would not disappoint his parents. Then the family chatted about all sorts of things and had a very pleasant dinner.
