I have few friends, but many childhood sweethearts.

Chapter 487. School Sports Meet

After the boys' 100-meter final was completed, it was soon time for the girls' 100-meter race.

During the preliminary round, Xu Qingfan suggested that the three of them should not hurt each other, and Xia Xiaoxiao, Xiao Ruanwen and Zhang Yiyi ran separately.

But you can't escape your fate forever. All three girls are all-around talented and advanced smoothly to the finals.

"Go, Yi Yi!"

"Come on, everybody!"

Lin Wanning and Wu Lingyu were cheering them on from outside the track. At the request of the three, Xu Qingfan stood 100 meters away to welcome the first girl to cross the finish line.

It would be a lie to say Xu Qingfan wasn't panicking. He only had two hands; how was he going to support three people?
But the teacher didn't give him time to think. He raised the starting pistol and shouted, "On your marks! Get set! Bang!"

The moment the gun fired, the runners on the eight tracks started running quickly, and those who were a beat slow in their reactions were instantly three or four meters behind.

Xu Qingfan has excellent eyesight. He had already located the track where the three girls were just a few seconds after the start of the race.

Xiao Ruanwen was temporarily in the lead by half a body length, with Xia Xiaoxiao and Zhang Yiyi chasing closely behind, and then the fourth and fifth place teams, who were lagging behind by five or six meters.

"come on!"

"Keep it up, Xiao Xiao!"

"Go, class monitor!"

"Go Yi Yi!"

The scene was bustling with noise, and the students from each of the three students' classes shouted enthusiastically, with the voices of a hundred or so people reaching the decibel level of military training.

Ten seconds is just a blink of an eye. The three of them still maintained their top three positions. Xiao Ruanwen's lead was getting bigger and bigger, and Xia Xiaoxiao was also gradually widening the gap with Zhang Yiyi.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ruanwen, like a galloping horse, dashed across the finish line.

Upon seeing Xu Qingfan, she slowed her pace and, without hesitation, bumped into his arms.

"Cough." Xu Qingfan held her firmly in his arms. Even though he had slowed down his momentum, he still couldn't help but groan when Xiao Ruanwen bumped into him like that.

But it was all worth it. The dog of a man savored the softness of his chest. Worth it, very worth it, extremely worth it!

But he quickly forgot about savoring the moment, because the next second, Xia Xiaoxiao also crossed the finish line and rushed towards them without turning at all.

Xu Qingfan had no choice but to quickly pull Xiao Ruanwen behind him, and then reach out his right hand to firmly scoop Xia Xiaoxiao into his arms again.

Seeing this, the audience watching the game were stunned. Xia Xiaoxiao's classmates, who had originally wanted to come up and cheer for her, also stood there dumbfounded.

But that's not all.

Seeing what Xiao Ruanwen and Xia Xiaoxiao had done behind her back, Zhang Yiyi puffed out her cheeks and rushed towards them without hesitation.

"Pfft, no, here we go again."

Before the momentum from Xia Xiaoxiao had subsided, and seeing Zhang Yiyi about to charge again, Xu Qingfan had no choice but to pull Xia Xiaoxiao behind him in the same way, while subtly pushing off with his right leg to increase friction.

Without Xu Qingfan's help, the next second, Zhang Yi opened her arms and threw herself into his embrace.

All three of them swayed noticeably, but fortunately, Xu Qingfan pushed off the ground with his back foot in time, thus miraculously absorbing the momentum transmitted from Zhang Yiyi.

"No, am I seeing things?"

Who is that guy?

"Who the hell is he?"

The male students present were instantly enraged. They could tolerate being hugged by one of them, and at most they would mutter a "normie" like "FFFFF".

I could tolerate being hugged by two old men, though I secretly clenched my fists.

But I can't stand holding three at once, I really can't stand it at all!
"Xu Qingfan from Class 16, he's her childhood sweetheart, stop barking like a dog."

"So what if you're childhood sweethearts? Does that mean you can hug and kiss in public?" (whispering)

“I know them too. I heard they’ve been classmates since kindergarten.”

"Tch~ There's no one at Experimental Elementary School who doesn't know Brother Fan!"

"."

Xu Qingfan's attention was completely focused on the three girls at the moment, so he did not notice the discussions around him.

"You guys want to run me over? Come on, all of you." Xu Qingfan rubbed his chest and rhythmically tapped the three men on the head.

"Hehe~ Brother Qingfan!"

"Great job, everyone who came in first place!"

He had barely finished speaking when Lin Wanning and Wu Lingyu, who had run from the starting point, arrived.

It didn't take a single minute for Xu Qingfan to go from being all alone to being surrounded by five beauties.

Many boys at the scene clenched their fists, their back teeth practically grinding with envy.

They were just discussing how pretty a certain girl was, when another person disagreed, saying he saw a girl in a skirt who was even more stunning. Then another person said, "I saw so-and-so with a high ponytail, she's like a dream girl."

There was no need for further discussion now, since everyone was already there.

"Let's go check the results first. After the second and third year students finish the 100-meter race, the 200-meter race will be quick too," Xu Qingfan said to the five of them, taking the little white dog from Lin Wanning's hand.

"Ok!"

Xiao Ruanwen's face was slightly flushed, but everyone assumed it was because of the strenuous exercise she had just done. The real reason was that she had just been hugged by Xu Qingfan.

She glanced furtively at Fan Ge and Xiao Xiao out of the corner of her eye, and when she realized that no one was looking at her, she quickly pretended to be nonchalant and looked down at the road.

[It's all Fan's fault! He kept saying I was his favorite person. Humph, that's definitely a lie he told me, I don't believe it!]
[If you sneak into my dreams again, I'll beat you up!]
Xiao Ruanwen imagined herself beating up Brother Fan into a pig's head in her dream, sometimes biting her lip and sometimes giggling foolishly.

"What are you doing?" Xu Qingfan grabbed her arm, lest she bump into the table if she went any further.

"Ah, I didn't do anything," Xiao Ruanwen said guiltily, her eyes darting away. Fortunately, everyone's attention was on the grades, and they didn't pay much attention to her.

"This is a very good result. The maximum score for female physical education students in the 8 meters is 12 seconds. If you didn't participate in the track and field team in junior high school, being able to run under 12 seconds is already a great achievement."

"However, there are relatively few girls who become sports specialists. As a teacher in the senior class, there are only two boys who became sports specialists this year."

The referee was one of the onlookers. When he saw them coming to check the results, he smiled and added a few words.

"Thank you for the reminder, teacher. But their grades are excellent. They are first, third, and fourth in the grade. These two are slightly less, but they are still in the top forty in the grade."

Xu Qingfan called out names one by one as if they were his own treasures. When it was Lin Wanning's turn, the girl flashed a silly grin, revealing two rows of big white teeth. (PE teacher:)
"Hehehe, I was just saying it offhand, it's just another option."

Xu Qingfan was tall and handsome, with a distinctive appearance, so the physical education teacher naturally remembered him.

Anyway, since we've gotten to this topic, he continued, "By the way, you just broke the school's 100-meter record, right? Are you interested in joining the school's track and field team? If you train hard, you have a great chance of becoming a national-level athlete, and many prestigious universities will give you extra points when you take the college entrance exam."

Although he didn't know how many seconds he had timed too fast, Xu Qingfan's ability to leave the second-place runner far behind, by eight or nine meters, was undeniable.

[I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but unfortunately, my abilities wouldn't allow it.]
Xu Qingfan shook his head and said with regret, "What a pity. If I weren't second in the grade, I would have gone to practice sports with you, teacher."

"Pfft, cough cough cough. Well, if you're second in the grade, then study hard, but you also need to exercise regularly." The PE teacher waved his hand, no longer wanting to talk to him; he was too tired!

Top students naturally wouldn't come to train in sports. They are also guaranteed admission, and even if they don't win an award in the end, the problem-solving strategies they learn can still be used in the college entrance examination.

But if you train in sports and don't succeed, then you're truly wasted.

After the PE teacher finished speaking, he picked up the walkie-talkie and urged the other side to hurry up with the preparations.

Xu Qingfan turned around and shrugged at the five girls, earning him a chorus of eye rolls from them.

The 200-meter race started at 9:00 a.m., and immediately after that, Wu Lingyu's 1,500-meter race was scheduled for this morning.

It was said that everyone would run 1,500 meters with Xiaoyu, but in reality, only Xu Qingfan finished the race. Oh right, Xiaobai was also dragged to finish by him.

"Brother Fan, my legs are so sore." Wu Lingyu gasped for breath, being supported by Xia Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ruanwen on either side as she walked.

"Let's walk a little further, and sit down at that medical station up ahead." Xu Qingfan held a cup of concentrated glucose in his hand and fed it to Xiaoyu little by little.

Both Wu Lingyu and Xie Rui persevered and ran the 1,500 meters, but Wu Lingyu looked like she was half dead, while Xie Rui seemed completely unaffected, with only a slight sweat on her forehead.

"Xiaoyu, I'm so sorry. I should have slowed down my pace earlier." Xie Rui followed them. She had initially needed some support, but after walking a few steps, she had fully recovered.

"It's not your fault, Xie Rui. I insisted on running away." Although Wu Lingyu was dizzy and disoriented, she still smiled in Xie Rui's direction.

When they were almost 800 meters apart, Xu Qingfan suggested that Wu Lingyu slow down a bit, but Xiaoyu refused.

Unlike Xia Xiaoxiao's competitive spirit, Wu Lingyu's sense of responsibility drives her to do her best to fulfill any promise she has made.

While the group was walking, the 200-meter time was announced over the loudspeaker.

"Xu Qingfan, a student from Class 16 of Grade 1, achieved a final time of 22.54 seconds in the 200-meter final, breaking the school's record for the men's 200-meter sprint."

As expected, Xu Qingfan and Xiao Ruanwen were still in first place. The dog man performed steadily and continued to break the school's record that had stood for many years.

"Brother Fan, you're on the radio again!" Xie Rui said with great admiration.

She was the only one present who practiced sports, so she was more aware of the value of Xu Qingfan's achievements.

"Luck, luck." Xu Qingfan waved his hand, not wanting to be a Versailles in front of Xie Rui.

Seeing that Wu Lingyu had finished her glucose, he turned around and scolded her, "Sports aren't your forte, so you're not allowed to sign up for the 1500 meters next year, do you hear me!"

[I just came in second place in the race, how come sports aren't my forte?]
Although Wu Lingyu was resentful, she still felt a warm feeling.

"I know, Brother Fan," she drawled, her eyes narrowing as she smiled.

Xu Qingfan glared at her reproachfully: "Sit down and rest for a while."

"Mmm!" Wu Lingyu gave a pitiful yet sweet smile.

After Wu Lingyu regained her mobility, everyone went to the awards ceremony to receive their medals and certificates. The top three received medals, and the fourth to eighth place received certificates.

On the day of the school sports meet, the five girls were able to leave school early, but they were still thinking about their Hanfu (traditional Han clothing). Instead of eating in the school cafeteria, they went straight home around 11:00 a.m.

After saying goodbye to Xie Rui, the six of them walked home.

Lin Wanning hung both gold medals won by Xu Qingfan and Xiao Ruanwen around his neck.

"Brother Qingfan, is this gold layer made of gold?" She picked up a medal and wanted to take a bite to try it.

"Don't bite it. Who knows if cockroaches or rats have crawled on it? How could it be gold? It's good enough if it's not a plastic prize." Xu Qingfan grabbed her wrist.

Upon hearing "rats and cockroaches," Lin Wanning immediately let go of her hand, looking utterly disgusted.

"Waaah~ I don't want it anymore, Qingfan-gege, you can have it back!"

Xia Xiaoxiao, Wu Lingyu, and Zhang Yiyi each held a silver and a bronze medal. After hearing this, they disdainfully handed their medals to Xu Qingfan.

"Brother, take it."

"Take this first, go back and wash it."

"Hey~ most of the fruits and snacks you buy at the supermarket have cockroaches crawling on them. Just wash them and they'll be fine." Xu Qingfan shook his head and took a string of medals in his hand.

"Brother Fan, can you please stop talking? Just thinking about how I usually open snack packages with my teeth makes me feel nauseous."

First, there was Xia Xiaoxiao's strawberry tart this morning, and now there's Xu Qingfan's cockroach attack. Xiao Ruanwen really wants to say, "You two should just get married already!"

"What's the big deal?" Xu Qingfan rolled his eyes at her, but didn't say anything more.

The six of them returned home at 11:30.

Xu Qingfan threw down the dog leash, and Xiaobai immediately lay down at the door and refused to come in.

After being kicked twice by Xu Qingfan, it slowly returned to its kennel and lay there motionless like a dead dog.

Xiaobai had a great time today. If you hung a phone around its neck, its WeChat steps would probably have exceeded 20,000 by now.

"So tired~" Lin Wanning is a complete noob. Although he didn't participate in any competitions, he still got plenty of exercise this morning by running around looking for people to collect stamps with.

"Brother Fan, I'm so hungry! When will we get some food?" Xiao Ruanwen said, patting her stomach.

Wu Lingyu looked up at Xu Qingfan, thinking of getting up to go into the kitchen to cook, but the next second, she lay down again.

"Brother Fan, I'll rest for a bit and be right there," Wu Lingyu said to him.

"Brother, I'll help!" Zhang Yi shouted the slogan, but he didn't seem to be ready to get up at all.

"You can all relax. I'll cook all by myself today. You all put on your beautiful makeup and just wait for the big meal."

Xu Qingfan glanced at the five girls slumped on the sofa, then turned and walked into the kitchen.

In preparation for the school sports meet, the six of them went to the market after school yesterday to buy a lot of ingredients. Xu Qingfan had already started cooking the dishes that needed to be stewed at breakfast.

He picked up the apron hanging on the wall, tied it on, and the handsome chef quickly became a chef.
