Senior, don't be afraid, I'll protect you.

After Luo Ye left, Qin Yuwen turned her head and stared intently at Su Baizhou, as if she were looking at a stranger.

“Zhouzhou, this junior clearly likes you.”

Su Baizhou remained expressionless and said calmly, "Aren't there many people who like me?"

"This is different!"

Qin Yuwen exclaimed excitedly, "Of all the people who like you, only the junior student hasn't been alienated by you!"

"Because he is Professor Gu's younger brother, Professor Gu entrusted me to take good care of him," Su Baizhou explained calmly.

Moreover, this explanation is very reasonable and there is no flaw in it.

Qin Yuwen frowned and couldn't help but say, "There's one more thing, Zhouzhou, why did you ask me to pretend that I was very familiar with him?"

"Because he is very shy, I'm afraid your enthusiasm will scare him away."

Qin Yuwen: ……

In short, let Luo Ye and Qin Yuwen meet in advance so that they can get to know each other beforehand, so that if the two of them suddenly meet in the future, Qin Yuwen will be like a clueless fool and expose her directly.

"Zhouzhou, tell me the truth, how could you possibly treat his younger brother specially because of Professor Gu? You're not that kind of person. Tell me! Do you also like this junior?"

Qin Yuwen looked at Su Baizhou intently.

The latter did not answer, but her lips moved slightly, and she slowly uttered two words that broke Qin Yuwen's heart:

"you guess."

"Aaaaaah, Zhouzhou, I'll bite you to death!"

……

After returning to his dormitory, Luo Ye immediately went to the playground.

Li Haoyang and Wang Dachui stood on his left and right sides, respectively.

The three stood at the starting point of the playground, striking cool poses, like reclusive masters about to engage in a decisive battle on the mountaintop.

The three men were so pretentious that passersby couldn't help but curse them as show-offs.

Li Haoyang said in a deep voice, "Brother Luo Ye, it's unrealistic to expect to get a top-three finish in a long-distance race in just half a month. You'll have to take a shortcut."

"What shortcut?" Luo Ye asked seriously.

"In long-distance running, being able to keep running without stopping until the end is already a victory. So, Brother Luoye, start running! The shortcut to long-distance running is perseverance."

As he spoke, Li Haoyang looked at Luo Ye... and Wang Dachui behind him, and asked in confusion, "What are you doing here?"

"Wherever there's excitement, you'll find Wang Dachui."

Wang Dachui gave Li Haoyang a provocative look and said, "Coach, it's just a long-distance race. I don't believe you can outrun me."

Fitness is fitness, and long-distance running is long-distance running; the two should not be confused.

Wang Dachui was praised by his neighbors as China's own Usain Bolt since he was a child. In elementary school, his classmates gave him the nickname "Rabbit" because he could run very fast.

In high school, in order to get food for his crush, he was the first to rush to the cafeteria after class, leading all the other students in the school to eat there, and was known as the ancestor of simps.

“Big Hammer, I have no intention of fighting with you. I am here today only for Brother Luo Ye,” Li Haoyang said, shaking his head.

"Heh, is the coach scared?" Wang Dachui said with a disdainful expression.

The two stared at each other, and there seemed to be a fierce clash of lightning in the air.

Caught in the middle, feeling the strange looks around him, Luo Ye said speechlessly, "You two stop pretending. Everyone else is looking at you like you're idiots."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dachui and Li Haoyang immediately turned their heads away, their faces turning red with embarrassment.

I got too caught up in the role without realizing it.

"Brother Luoye, there's no point in saying more, let's begin."

"it is good!"

Luo Ye silently counted to three and was about to run.

Sudden.

For some reason, Li Haoyang and Wang Dachui launched themselves into the air, and by the time Luo Ye reacted, they had already sprinted dozens of meters.

Damn it, are you two crazy?

Seeing this, Luo Ye didn't hesitate. Regardless of whether it was a long-distance run or not, he accelerated at full speed and chased after the two.

Although it's embarrassing for someone to run around like crazy on the playground.

But if there are three people, then it's not considered shameful.

That's called happiness.

Although there weren't many people on the playground, there were still a few dozen scattered around.

The three of them were sprinting here, looking like they had just broken up with their boyfriends.

Li Haoyang rushed to the front, running like his life depended on it.

Not far away, a petite figure watched him, her eyes filled with heartache.

Xu Xiaojia was watching him from a place where the coach wasn't paying attention, but the latter never noticed.

However, both of them were sprinting, so their speed slowed down after one lap.

I was already panting heavily by the second lap.

My whole body went numb during the third lap.

At this moment, the two of them were not even as fast as Luo Ye, who was training for long-distance running. They were as tired as a big dog that had been exposed to the midday sun in summer for eight hours.

Luo Ye was still running.

He kept going around and around, covered in sweat, but he didn't stop.

Wang Dachui and Li Haoyang sat on the playground, panting, and noticed that Luo Ye was still running.

"Coach, how many laps has Wild Kid run?" Wang Dachui asked.

"Six laps, I guess."

Li Haoyang felt some admiration, after all, these six laps were different from his usual six laps during his morning run. In the first lap, Luo Ye sprinted with them, and his stamina was almost exhausted by then.

Then he persisted for five more laps.

It seems that Luo Ye took Li Haoyang's words to heart.

The only shortcut to long-distance running is perseverance.

Only by constantly pushing one's limits can one improve one's physical strength.

Suddenly, a petite and cute girl walked up to Li Haoyang and said playfully, "Class monitor, want some Gatorade?"

Upon hearing the girl's voice, Wang Dachui's eyes widened. When he saw it was Xu Xiaojia, he exclaimed in shock, "Girl, who are you? This is a university, how did a middle school student get in here?"

"You're only a junior high school student, your whole family are junior high school students."

Xu Xiaojia said angrily.

Li Haoyang looked at the Pulse in front of him, a thoughtful expression on his face, and then shook his head.

It's Pulse again. He'll never drink Pulse again in his life.

He met Liu Bingxin because of Pulse.

Seeing that Li Haoyang didn't want it, Xu Xiaojia looked at the Wansui Mountain mineral water in her other hand.

That was bought for Luo Ye. Since Li Haoyang didn't want it, she had no choice but to give it to him instead.

After all, she knew Luo Ye, so it would be too deliberate to only buy for Li Haoyang.

Wang Dachui, who was standing nearby, saw the two bottles of water and assumed the other one was his. He immediately reached out and said, "Sister Xu, is this bottle mine?"

They were classmates, so he remembered the name of this petite girl; he was just joking.

"Who are you? This bottle is for Luo Ye."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dachui exclaimed in shock, "What? The three of us are practicing long-distance running, why am I the only one who isn't?"

"So, who are you?" Xu Xiaojia asked.

Seeing her completely bewildered expression, which didn't seem like she was faking it at all, Wang Dachui was truly devastated.

We're classmates, you know. I, Wang Dachui, have such a great reputation, am I really that unlucky with women?
