Su Yi smiled and asked her, “How was your long jump?”
Zhang Jiajia shrugged, “Third place. So far, no one in our class has won the championship. You are the highest ranked. If we hadn’t had the same competition time this morning, I would have gone to cheer you on. But, don’t worry. I have just made an agreement with several people. We will cheer for you in the 5,000-meter race!”
“Thank you.” Su Yi nodded.
The competition was about to start. She went to the registration office to register and then followed the team leader into the venue.
Standing on the starting line, the player next to her happened to be Zhang Na, but she had a cold expression and didn’t even look at Su Yi, as if she didn’t know her and had never made a bet with her.
Someone outside the venue shouted to cheer.
Su Yi heard a few familiar voices and turned her head to see that in addition to Zhang Jiajia and classmates, Xiao Yan and Han Lu were also standing by the track.
When she looked over, Han Lu waved at her.
“Ah Yan, why do I think the little girl is in a bit of trouble? Five thousand meters, twelve and a half laps, it’s really no kidding. Can she really finish it?”
Xiao Yan didn’t say anything. His eyes fell on Su Yi.
When gunshots rang out, more than a dozen people rushed out together. They were originally crowded together, but after running half a circle, they ran in a line.
Some people rushed to the front, while others temporarily fell behind to save their energy. Su Yi followed closely behind Zhang Na, and the two people ran in the middle.
After the first lap, cheers started to ring out near the starting point, and the cheers gradually stopped until the players ran far away. Then, when the players passed by for the second time, people on the sidelines started to cheer again.
After three laps, the gap gradually widened. Su Yi and Zhang Na still maintained their speed and ran in the upper middle position.
Han Lu stared at her for a while, nodded, and said, “I can’t tell that your sister’s physical strength is quite good. It’s been more than a thousand meters, but her face hasn’t changed much.”
Xiao Yan hummed.
Han Lu rolled his eyes, “You are too realistic. Just now I doubted that your sister could not finish the race, and you ignored me. Now I praised her for her good physical strength, and you immediately responded.”
“At noon, I was wondering why you, who was so bothered by others, stayed when your race was obviously over. It turned out that you just wanted to watch the little girl’s competition!”
Xiao Yan ignored him again and focused on the track.
When the race was halfway through, the gap became even bigger, with the first and last place separated by nearly a lap.
At this time, Zhang Na was already in first place and Su Yi was in second place, with only two or three steps between them.
“Su Yi, come on!”
Outside the track, Zhang Jiajia was very excited. To be honest, she came to cheer for Su Yi purely to support her and didn’t think that she could really get a ranking.
But looking at the current situation, as long as she could keep up, Su Yi could at least get second place, leaving the third place behind!
Several other classmates from her class also shouted together.
Although they didn’t have much friendship with Su Yi, and some of them had never even spoken to her, at this moment, everyone couldn’t help but become nervous and excited.
The two people in the front were already far ahead.
Perhaps she heard footsteps behind her, so Zhang Na looked back and found that it was Su Yi. She was obviously surprised. Her face, which was already slightly pale, became even worse.
She gritted her teeth and suddenly quickened her pace, trying to leave the person behind. But the footsteps behind her kept following closely.
She rushed again for a while, but her physical strength could not keep up, so she slowed down unconsciously.
After a while, she tried to sprint again, but her thighs were so sore that she could hardly lift them, and her chest hurt so much that she could hardly breathe.
“Your rhythm is messed up.” Su Yi reminded her from behind.
Her face was not red, and she was not out of breath.
“If you keep running like this, you may not be able to reach the finish line.”
She actually still had the energy to speak!
Zhang Na bit her lips until they turned white. Her brain had become a mess due to lack of oxygen, but she had to admit that what she said was right. But her rhythm had just been disrupted by herself.
Although she tried her best to adjust it now, it seemed that the energy she was holding on to suddenly dissipated. She could no longer gather the energy she had before.
Suddenly, someone cheered outside the field.
She subconsciously looked back and saw that the third place had started to speed up. The gap that was originally half a lap behind was gradually narrowing.
Zhang Na was almost a little desperate. She began to doubt whether she could really reach the finish line.
“It’s the last lap. Su Yi, hold on! Come on!” Zhang Jiajia and others shouted loudly.
Han Lu touched his chin and said to Xiao Yan: “Your sister is simply a little monster. She was talking to the person in front of her just now. Did you see it? I have reason to suspect that the little girl is deliberately doing bad things. With such good physical strength, she is following behind others. Isn’t this deliberately making people nervous?”
Xiao Yan finally gave him a half look, “Where is the evidence?”
“I just said a lot, isn’t that evidence? You can’t only see your sister and not see others at all.”
“Human evidence? Physical evidence?” Xiao Yan asked again.
This guy was really taking it too seriously!
Han Lu was speechless. It was just a joke. First of all, the girl herself didn’t have good mental qualities, so it was not the fault of others.
But he didn’t expect that Xiao Yan couldn’t stand hearing anyone say anything bad about his sister and even talk about witnesses and evidence.
He was now very sure that if Su Yi really did something bad, this guy must have helped to destroy the body!
The sister-complex made people dizzy and had a distorted worldview!

Translator’s Comment:
I think you are wrong, Han Lu.
Maybe if Su Yi really wants to do something bad, needs not wait to destroy the body, Xiao Yan is willingly doing it instead of her, lest it dirty his sister’s hand!
Haha…
