Chapter 225 - 225: Everyone in the Family Is So Strong
From the sidelines, the loudest cheers were for Lu Jingzhi.
The teacher who arranged their positions also saw that he was rather young and arranged a route that was not too long for him; in a short time, Lu Jingzhi handed his baton to Shen Yunci.
When Lu Ning’s gaze fell on Shen Yunci, she saw her brimming with fighting spirit, her eyes blazing with the desire to win.
Shi Qingyue, who overtook Lu Jingzhi, was quickly overtaken by Shen Yunci.
“So, so fast!”
“Isn’t this auntie too fast?!”
Lu Zhi looked towards his back, his eyes full of determination, which matched Shen Yunci’s spirit.
Lu Ning did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Shen Yunci had shaken off everyone and was the first to pass the baton to him; seeing this, Lu Zhi immediately sprinted forward with all his might.
At the same time, the remaining parents also quickly received their batons and rushed ahead single-mindedly. This stretch was run by all their fathers, and they were evenly matched, so it was difficult to tell who was faster.
Halfway through the race, two of the chubbier fathers lagged slightly behind the others. Lu Zhi and Lù Chuan passed the baton to their daughters almost at the same time.
When Lu Zhi handed it over, he even looked at Lu Ning and shouted, “Ning’ning! Hurry!”
Lu Ning was shocked by the burning fury in his eyes. After receiving the baton, she instantly sped ahead.
Lù Yue’an had received the baton alongside Lu Ning, but the moment they started running she was left far behind by Lu Ning.
“Good riddance, what’s Lù Yue’an doing? Even I can walk faster than her.”
“Just which of them used to be a pampered Young Mistress? Lu Ning is flying ahead, yet she doesn’t even seem to know how to run.”
“Oh my god, we could’ve fought for first and second place. Now, it’ll be decent if we can still get ranked.”
“I have to hand it to her. Could she even run any slower?”
The spectators around them were antsy and could not help but discuss among themselves on the sidelines.
In the end, Lu Ning and another student from the other track crossed the finish line.
“She’s so strong. Her athleticism might also be inherited.”
“That’s right. Everyone in the family is so strong.”
“But the younger brother is still the cutest. Did you see how fast his short legs were moving when he ran just now?”
“That’s right! I even took a photo, it’s especially cute and funny.”
Some of the girls were gathered together, chatting and laughing.
The timings for five of the teams were displayed on a large scoreboard.
There were still three teams that had yet to compete, and it was necessary to wait for their competition to end before the winners could be assigned.
When Lu Ning pulled Shen Yunci and the others back, Shen Yunci looked in the direction of the scoreboard. After confirming that she was far ahead of Lù Yue’an and the others, she relaxed and broke into a smile.
Lu Ning held Lu Jingzhi’s hand as they walked back. Along the way, Lu Jingzhi was constantly teased by the girls around him.
Unable to avoid some of the loving touches from some of the girls, he frowned and let go of Lu Ning’s hand to stand on the inner side of the ring. Then, he held Lu Ning’s other hand.
Lu Ning looked down towards him and giggled. When she turned to look at the girls, she saw that they did not seem to mind at all; rather, they were even looking at Lu Jingzhi as if they had been melted by his cuteness.
Lu Ning:
Perhaps this is his charm.
He might have been able to avoid one side, but he was unable to avoid the other. When the girls of Class 9 saw Lu Jingzhi, they practically pounced on him—Lin Ci even kissed Lu Jingzhi the instant she hugged him, giving Lu Jingzhi such a fright that he wanted to crawl into Lu Ning’s arms. However, Lin Ci dragged him back out.
In the end, he became numb to their antics, his face expressionless as Lin Ci hugged and kissed him passionately. After it was over, he raised his hand and wiped his face..
