Chapter 25: Revenge

At the beginning of Monday morning self-study, the League Secretary Fu Linlin walked up to the podium and announced something.

The school will hold the 11 freshman (autumn) sports meeting on November 5, which is next Friday. We hope that everyone will sign up actively and bring honor to your class and college.

……

"Brother Xu, are you going to sign up for the sports meet?" Xu Haoyang turned to ask Li Xu.

"It's okay to report it or not." Li Xu said indifferently.

He took a pen and made some corrections on the draft book.

"What are you writing?" Xu Haoyang glanced at the notebook curiously.

"Mysterious, silent, are you really listening to this story? I've crossed mountains, rivers, and seas, and walked through crowds of people... What is this? Is it the lyrics?"

Li Xu hummed lightly.

After studying music theory on his own for more than a month, he was able to barely get started. He could read the musical notation, know the note names, solfège and pitch, and also understood the beat and rests.

But when it comes to composing music, I am at a loss again. Even if I can come up with some melodies, I am not sure if they are right.

It seems that I still need to find a teacher as soon as possible.

Now that he has more money, it shouldn't cost too much to find an amateur music teacher.

At this time, Fu Linlin walked towards the boys with a form.

"What is this?" Shen Qiang quickly took the form from Fu Linlin's hand and saw that it was: Registration Form for the 2010 Freshman Sports Selection Competition of the School of Finance and Economics (Men's Group).

There are more than a dozen events listed above, including 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters...1500 meters, high jump, long jump, shot put, etc.

If you want to participate in the school sports meet, you need to pass the intra-college selection first, and then you can represent the college to participate in the competition.

"Apply for the project you are good at and make a decision as soon as possible. I have to submit this form today," said Fu Linlin.

"Is it okay if I don't report any of them?" Shen Qiang asked with a smile.

"No!" Fu Linlin glared at him unhappily.

"All of you boys must sign up. Each of you must sign up for at least one project. The more the better."

"Then I'll just sign up for the 100-meter race, is that okay?" Shen Qiang said to Linlin with a smile again.

"Didn't I tell you to report what you are good at, but don't report random things." After saying that, Fu Linlin turned and left.

Li Xu glanced at Shen Qiang. It seemed that this kid was interested in dealing with Linlin, but he was too cowardly to pursue her openly.

He is always trying to be attentive and find things to talk about.

After Shen Qiang finished filling it out, Xu Haoyang took the application form and asked Li Xu while looking at it: "Brother Xu, what project do you want to apply for?"

"Just 400 meters." Li Xu said after thinking for a while.

In comparison, his endurance is stronger than his explosive power, and the 400 meters has always been his strong point in junior high and high school.

"Then I'll sign up for shot put."

As Xu Haoyang spoke, he first drew a √ for Li Xu under the 400-meter mark, and then drew a √ for himself under the shot put event.

"Can you shot put?" Li Xu asked casually.

"No way."

"You will still report it if it doesn't work?"

"Shot put is easy, just throw it and it's done."

After Li Xu and the others finished filling out the form, the registration form was passed back to Fu Linlin.

However, just after the first class, Fu Linlin came over again with the registration form in her hand, looking very aggressive.

"Why haven't any of you guys signed up for the 800m and 1500m? How am I supposed to submit them?"

Then, she turned her attention to Li Xu and said, "Li Xu, you are so tall, and you only want to apply for one project. How dare you do that?"

"Then I'll sign up for another 800 meters, is that okay?" Li Xu said with a smile.

"That's pretty much it."

Fu Linlin said this and helped Li Xu draw a circle under the 800-meter mark. "There's only 1500 meters left, and no one's signed up yet. Why don't you sign up too?" Fu Linlin said with a smile.

"I have already signed up for a 400-meter race and an 800-meter race." Li Xu said a little speechlessly.

"You have the best physical fitness among the boys in our class. Those who are capable should do more work!"

After saying that, Fu Linlin drew a √ below 1500 meters without caring whether Li Xutong agreed or not.

Li Xu suspected that Fu Linlin was deliberately taking revenge on him, but he had no evidence.

However, he didn't care either.

For boys who generally don't like sports, running 400 meters, 800 meters and 1500 meters continuously must be very tiring.

But for someone like Li Xu who exercises almost every day and runs regularly, it is really not a big deal.

Wednesday came in a blink of an eye.

We have physical education class on Wednesday afternoon.

It was a rare occasion that Li Xu did not skip classes. At two o'clock in the afternoon, he went to the playground with Xu Haoyang, Shen Qiang, Li Guanfu and others.

Last time, it was because he skipped a physical education class. After being discovered by the physical education teacher, he was made an example and reported to the school, which led to Fu Linlin being called to the office by the counselor and reprimanded.

It didn't matter to him, a boy, that he was criticized by the teacher. The school would not give him a demerit or even expel him for such a small matter.

But since Fu Linlin was implicated, Li Xu felt a little guilty.

Therefore, even if Fu Linlin looked for an opportunity to "retaliate" against him, he could understand.

Since the sports meet was about to start, Tai Chi was not taught in these two physical education classes as usual.

After running two laps around the playground and doing warm-up exercises, the physical education teacher asked Li Xu, He Weichen, Li Guanfu and other boys to get the shot put, javelin and high jump equipment first.

Let them practice the events they have signed up for in advance to prepare for the trials this weekend.

After the disbandment was announced, Li Xu did not go to practice running. Instead, he was dragged by Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang to the shot put and javelin practice grounds.

One of the two guys signed up for shot put and the other for javelin.

Seeing Xu Haoyang playing with the shot put, Li Xu couldn't help but frown and said, "Be careful, don't hit anyone again."

"Don't worry, it won't hit you." Xu Haoyang said carelessly.

But just as he finished speaking, he accidentally dropped the shot put on the ground and almost hit his foot.

After failing once, the boy didn't dare to play around anymore. He got into position and threw the shot put with all his strength.

The shot put drew an arc in the air and landed six meters away, creating a shallow pit on the ground.

Shen Qiang followed closely behind and threw out his javelin, but his result was not as good as Xu Haoyang's. He threw it out and it fell flat on the ground.

Li Xu couldn't help but shook his head secretly. With the level of these two guys, they would only be runners-up if they participated in the competition.

"Brother Xu, why don't you try it too?" Xu Haoyang said.

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

After Li Xu took the shot put, he first found the feel for it, then got into position, and then got into position again, and threw it with all his might.

The shot put drew an arc in the air and landed 9 meters away.

9.56 m.

This result should be enough to pass the selection round.

"Your level is pretty good. Why don't you sign up for the shot put?" Fu Linlin came over and said to Li Xu with a smile.

Li Xu gave her a funny look and asked, "Didn't you submit the registration form a long time ago?"

"That's such a pity!" Fu Linlin walked away with a look of regret on her face.

There is no need to guess, Fu Linlin is definitely taking revenge on him on purpose.
