One person can beat sixty people.
One person can row a dragon boat that carries thirty people and still maintain balance, keeping them firmly in first place.
Are you trying to kill ordinary people?
Bai Lu had seen Xiao Cheng punch a flying man before, but that memory paled in comparison to the shock she felt at this moment.
She's really ignorant.
This is the first time I've truly understood the meaning of "there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding," and "true masters are often found among ordinary people."
The world is vast and full of wonders, and Xiao Cheng is the most unique person Bai Lu has ever seen in her life.
Both the Pingcheng and Jinzhen teams stated that Xiao Cheng is the most terrifying person they have ever seen in their lives.
They thought the New Town team was chatting happily and didn't notice the referee calling for the start of the game, giving them an early advantage.
But the result was so devastating that he didn't want to live anymore.
I was happy and relieved for less than a second before I was overtaken at the start of the race. Is this something a human would do?
Is it possible for a human being to win first place within 100 meters by himself?
They were certain and absolutely certain that Xiao Cheng was not human.
Xiao Cheng is a devil!
A devil with superhuman strength!
Heartless devils who leave them no way out and make them lose face to the point of being utterly humiliated!
Look at how the shouts along the river have changed.
It started with: "Go Pingcheng team!"
"Go Jinzhen team!"
"Go New Town Team!"
After the 100-meter dash, it turned into shouts: "Ahhh! Cheng-ge is so amazing! First place, first place, so cool!"
"Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng! The number one Brother Cheng!"
"Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng! Champion Brother Cheng!"
"Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng! The awesome Brother Cheng!"
Three hundred meters... five hundred meters... eight hundred meters... one thousand meters... all the sounds were cheering for Xiao Cheng.
Maybe not. The New Town team has already secured first place, so Xiao Cheng doesn't need any encouragement.
Those were all words of worship for Xiao Cheng, words of praise for Xiao Cheng, and words of ridicule for their snail-like slowness.
The Pingcheng team and the Jinzhen team charged forward with all their might, their oars even smoking.
They still couldn't catch up with the dragon boat of the New Town team.
Zhou Jiayi watched helplessly as the Pingcheng team fell further and further behind the Xinzhen team, so angry that she couldn't even shout "Go team!"
Yu Xiaoling even deliberately used a megaphone to cheer Zhou Jiayi on from behind, shouting as loudly as she could.
The loud blare of the horn pierced through the cacophony of voices, striking Zhou Jiayi's eardrums and making her jump up and down on the spot.
I wish I could turn around and smash Yu Xiaoling's megaphone.
But then he thought that the race wasn't over yet, and there were still 500 meters left on the track, so the Pingcheng team would definitely be able to turn the tide and win.
If we win, we can then use that to mock Yu Xiaoling and Bai Lu.
Zhou Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and glared fiercely at Yu Xiaoling, then gave her the middle finger.
Yu Xiaoling, however, retorted with the truth she least wanted to face: "Cheng Ge is number one! Xinzhen team is number one!"
The girls all shouted in unison, "Cheng-ge is number one!"
"New Town Team, first place!"
Zhou Jiayi's ears were ringing with "number one," her entire brain was filled with "number one," and she was buzzing from the impact of "number one."
He snorted and gave two middle fingers before turning his head away.
I'm in first place again!
Zhou Jiayi was instantly dumbfounded.
At the 1500-meter finish line, the Xinzhen Dragon Boat Team had already won the championship, while the Pingcheng Team and Jinzhen Team were still paddling hard behind.
Finally, after all the members of the New Town team had reached the shore, the winner was decided.
Jinzhen team came in second, and Pingcheng team came in third.
The fact that the four-time champions, Heisei, came in third instead of second was unbelievable to all the spectators.
However, it must be believed that the Pingcheng team worked too hard, and one of their members accidentally lost his oar in the last 400 meters.
The entire process was done by hand, and the speed of that hand movement is best illustrated by the fact that third place was achieved.
The newly crowned champion team from Xinzhen was surrounded by enthusiastic crowds, three layers deep.
They offered words of comfort and concern, but those who wanted to leave couldn't, and those who wanted to enter couldn't get in.
"The champion is actually the New Town team." Lin Jinfan was surprised, but it was also expected.
Bai Lu looked at the silhouettes at the finish line and praised without reservation: "Xiao Cheng is amazing."
Lin Jinfan glanced at her in surprise, only to see a hint of excitement and agitation in the girl's clear eyes, which had long since shed their timidity and weakness. He was slightly astonished.
He asked gently, "Have you eaten zongzi?"
Bai Lu paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "I ate it. It was a very big zongzi, and it was filled with a lot of things, including chicken legs, chicken wings, pork belly, and shrimp."
In the past, every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, Lin Jinfan would exchange zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) with the original owner of the body.
Because the rice dumplings that the original owner received at home were small, vegetarian, and different from everyone else's.
Lin Jinfan's zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) are very large, containing mung beans and meat, and he shares them with the original owner of the body, exchanging and tasting them.
Seeing that the smile on her face didn't seem fake, Lin Jinfan smiled too: "That's good."
"Have you eaten? If not..."
Before Bai Lu could finish speaking, her wrist was locked by a powerful force, and she was caught off guard and slammed into a solid chest that suddenly appeared on her right side. However, she didn't feel any pain because the distance was too close. She was just cut off from the words she was about to say.
The next second, he was gone too.
Lin Jinfan watched the two figures disappear into the crowd, lost in thought. He slowly closed his umbrella, and after a moment, he also walked into the crowd, heading towards the opposite exit.
The prizes for the dragon boat race are at the finish line.
Along the kilometer-long road, the crowds who came to welcome the champion were intimidated by the champion's cold face and made way for him.
Bai Lu was impressed by the boss's long, slender legs that made him walk with such confidence, but she felt helpless and couldn't keep up.
"Could you slow down a bit?"
Xiao Cheng slowed down, but kept looking straight ahead, not looking at anyone, let alone Bai Lu, with a cold expression.
Bai Lu knew this was a very serious moment; she couldn't laugh, absolutely couldn't laugh.
She had to hold back: "Congratulations on winning the championship."
"Hmm." He remained indifferent.
His sharply defined profile looked particularly striking in the sunlight, yet the freezing temperature didn't melt it at all.
Bai Lu looked left and right, then glanced down at her wrist, which was being held by a large hand. Her gaze moved up to the tycoon's handsome, aloof face, and she stared at him, asking, "What's the prize?"
Xiao Cheng turned his face away: "King Zongzi."
"There's a king-sized rice dumpling!" Bai Lu exclaimed in surprise.
Xiao Cheng: "..."
Bai Lu was surprised and full of curiosity, and continued to ask, "How heavy is the King Zongzi? What kind of filling is inside?"
Xiao Cheng: "Thirty catties, pig's trotters."
"A 30-pound pig's trotter?"
Xiao Cheng: "..."
"Thirty catties is for zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and one pig's trotter."
"Oh~" Bai Lu understood: "How can such a big pig's trotter cook when wrapped in a zongzi?"
Xiao Cheng said expressionlessly, "Boneless pig's trotters."
Bai Lu then asked, "I heard that there's also a prize for second place, is it also a big pig's trotter?"
Xiao Cheng: "...half a pig's trotter."
"How heavy is the zongzi?"
"Fifteen catties."
"Does the third place prize include a large pig's trotter?"
"……""No."
"What's wrong with that?"
"A piece of pork belly."
"The third place prize is pork belly, but pork belly has fat in it, that's so pitiful. The first and second place prizes are better, they get big pig's trotters..."
Xiao Cheng finally turned around, and Bai Lu smiled brightly: "How heavy is the third-place rice dumpling?"
"Is it as heavy as the first-place pig's trotter?"
