The finals are about to begin.
Those who have survived through rounds of elimination are definitely people with exceptional athletic talent.
When Zhou Chen's gaze met anyone else's, he sensed that they were formidable rivals.
It won't be easy for him to win the championship, because in the previous matches, more than one person finished in a shorter time than him. Although he didn't use his full strength, those people probably used only part of their strength, just like him.
This doesn't exclude the possibility that some have always kept their strength hidden.
Zhou Chen was not arrogant; he knew there was always someone better, and there was always someone stronger.
Facing numerous formidable enemies, he was not afraid; instead, he was even more excited, his blood boiling with passion.
With the whistle blowing to start the match,
Zhou Chen arrived at his designated track, and the others followed suit, each taking their place.
The match is about to begin.
at the same time,
Families across the country are watching this sporting competition on their television screens.
Zhou Ling had a somber expression. She had been praying that Zhou Chen would be eliminated, but Zhou Chen made it all the way to the finals. This made her repeatedly comfort herself, saying that it was all just luck.
Now that it's the finals, Zhou Chen can't continue to have such good luck. There are so many strong players who will definitely leave Zhou Chen far behind and make him realize the gap between himself and others.
Zhou Ling was still waiting for Zhou Chen to make a fool of himself.
At this time,
Grandma Zhao came again. After pushing open the door, she saw Zhou Ling leisurely watching TV and immediately became furious, starting her scolding mode.
All sorts of unpleasant words came out of her mouth. She brought up old grievances, blaming Zhou Ling for Zhao Kun's unemployment, and also blaming Zhou Ling for her own father's deteriorating health, believing that Zhou Ling was the culprit.
Zhou Ling had been holding back for a long time since Zhao Kun lost his job, and hadn't argued with Old Mrs. Zhao.
Now, I've reached my limit and can no longer tolerate it.
She immediately made a harsh statement: if Old Mrs. Zhao complained to her again, she would take the Zhao family's offspring and run away from home, making the son in her womb call someone else "Dad" in the future.
This threat immediately put an end to Mrs. Zhao's anger.
Then, they slunk away.
"Trying to mess with me? Humph!"
Seeing this, Zhou Ling's face showed a smug look. She had finally grasped the weakness of Old Madam Zhao. What do you call blocking her? Yes, it's like holding the emperor hostage to command the princes. Zhou Ling felt that at this moment, she was Cao Cao in ancient times.
She vented her anger at Old Mrs. Zhao, which made her feel much better.
Immediately, my gaze fell back on the television screen.
Just then, the starting gun fired.
In the courtyard, Old Mrs. Zhao was very upset. That little bitch Zhou Ling dared to threaten her. If she hadn't confirmed with her son Zhao Kun several times that the child in Zhou Ling's belly was definitely of the Zhao family, she would not have given in.
"For the sake of you being pregnant with my grandson, I won't be like you. Wait until the baby is born, and if you dare to threaten me again, see if I'll let you get away with it. You little brat, you're still too green. This family isn't your place to be in charge!"
Old Mrs. Zhao walked out of the courtyard, sulking.
Huh?
What are all those people doing at the entrance?
When Grandma Zhao saw that all the neighbors on the left and right sides were gathered together with a group of people carrying various instruments, they were talking about something.
Old Mrs. Zhao immediately went over to them.
Not long after,
Grandma Zhao's face lit up with joy. Their neighborhood was going to be demolished. The demolition office was negotiating with the residents. Once the agreement was reached and the contract was signed, they would receive a large sum of compensation.
She had heard that not long ago, in a village in the suburbs near Fengcheng City, the original residents received hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan overnight due to demolition and relocation.
Now, such good fortune is about to fall upon their family.
Grandma Zhao was very excited because her family was going to be rich and wouldn't have to suffer anymore.
You know, they have more than one house; they have two. Although they are both dilapidated, they are large in area. Even if they are not as big as the rural areas on the outskirts of Fengcheng, they should still be quite a lot.
"I want to tell Xiao Kun this good news. With the demolition compensation, Xiao Kun will have the capital to start a business and become his own boss."
"Who will dare to laugh at our family in the future?"
Ever since Zhao Kun lost his job, Old Mrs. Zhao has been subjected to a lot of sarcastic remarks. After all, she had previously boasted about Zhao Kun so much that she wanted to go to other people's homes to talk about him. As a result, she was backfired and was ridiculed to her face and behind her back.
However, if their family receives compensation for the demolition and has the capital to start a business, they might just become big bosses.
Thinking of this,
Grandma Zhao rushed home and called Zhao Kun.
In a small room,
Zhao Kun, who was on the battlefield, was interrupted by a phone call. He was about to start cursing when he saw that it was his elderly mother. He could only stop, signal to the woman beneath him to be quiet, and then pressed the answer button.
What!
Is their house going to be demolished?
Upon hearing the news from his mother, Zhao Kun was stunned, then overjoyed.
Demolition and relocation are good things; they'll give you lots and lots of money.
Doesn't that mean Zhao Kun is about to rise again?
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Kun felt his previous gloom vanish, and even the overcast sky outside seemed exceptionally beautiful.
"Brother Kun, your house is being demolished and you're rich now, will you still want me?"
The woman heard clearly and immediately spoke in a charming and touching manner.
"Baby, I don't need anyone else, but I'd never abandon you. You're the apple of my eye." Zhao Kun smiled, bringing the two of them to a negative distance.
"Bad guy."
The woman feigned shyness and turned her head away, which immediately warmed Zhao Kun's heart and aroused his interest. He then buried himself in his work and continued what he had not finished.
While Mrs. Zhao was happy, a hint of displeasure also arose.
She suddenly realized that the compensation her family received for the demolition might have to go to Zhou Ling, which was something she didn't want to see. How could she keep Zhou Ling from knowing about this?
By the way, their family hasn't officially married Zhou Ling yet, so Zhou Ling isn't considered part of their family and doesn't have the right to share in the demolition compensation.
Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Zhao's mood suddenly improved, and even improved significantly.
...
"impossible!"
"How could he possibly come in first place?"
"A bunch of useless trash!"
When the competition results were announced, Zhou Ling was furious and smashed things all over the floor.
Because things turned out completely contrary to her expectations, Zhou Chen actually won first place and was cheered by the whole audience. The entire big screen was filled with images of Zhou Chen.
When Zhou Chen returns to Fanjia County, he will surely be the subject of much discussion and attention.
And she, as Zhou Chen's former sister, will be mentioned again and nailed to the pillar of shame.
Damn it!
Why can't you finish in last place?
Why are you picking on me?
If televisions weren't so expensive, she would have smashed them.
Ring ring ring...
At this time,
The phone rang. Zhou Ling took a deep breath and saw that it was Sun Tingting calling. After answering, she said, "I know the result of the competition... You don't need to..."
"Zhou Ling, that's not what I meant. I meant the demolition of your neighborhood!"
"Congratulations! You're about to become a millionaire."
"On the other end of the phone," Sun Tingting said excitedly.
