Jiang Nian didn't expect that Qi Yuan Chi also calculated his physical fitness based on how many laps he had surpassed himself.
Kirihara Akaya enthusiastically explained, "At the beginning, I only surpassed you by twenty-eight laps, but now I'm at thirty-three. This shows that I have indeed grown."
Jiang Nian looked at the smug Kirihara Akaya in front of him and felt angry, but helpless.
"Why did you tell everyone in your club?"
"No, I only told Marui-senpai, Kuwabara-senpai, Niou-senpai, and Yanagi-senpai."
Jiang Nian looked at Kirihara Akaya who was counting while talking, and was furious.
"I'm not asking that. I'm asking why you told them?"
Qi Yuan Chi didn't notice Jiang Nian's mood change: "I want to ask them for the secret of running, and then tell you."
Jiang Nian's anger was soothed by these words.
"I didn't expect that Niou-senpai would insist on asking me the reason." Kirihara Akaya smiled a little embarrassedly, "I told him everything."
"Later, Niou-senpai asked me every day how many laps I had passed you, so I remembered to tell him every day."
Jiang Nian was speechless. Forget it, let it be.
The ancients were right. Good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles.
Jiang Nian was very grateful to Yukimura Seiichi for telling him and stopped Kirihara from doing this.
Otherwise, if this continued, Jiang Nian felt that he might become the laughing stock of the whole school.
After following Yukimura Seiichi for a while, Jiang Nian went from feeling very tired every day to only feeling sleepy during the last class in the morning.
It’s a good start.
Fortunately, grandma has retired and is keen on preparing rich lunch boxes for Jiang Nian every day, so Jiang Nian can take a short nap at school during lunch break.
The good news is that Jiang Nian's ranking in this physical education exam rose as expected, becoming the third from the bottom.
The last one was that I ate too many cold drinks before running, which caused me to have a stomachache and I didn’t take the exam.
The second to last one was surpassed by Jiang Nian due to his strength.
After that, Jiang Nian stopped running and started studying to prepare for the final exams and the upcoming math competition.
The national tennis tournament also kicked off, and everyone in the tennis club was ready to go, and the atmosphere was very tense.
Jiang Nian was a little conflicted about whether to interfere with the outcome of the game or tell Yukimura Seiichi something.
The reason for the hesitation is the fear of affecting the direction of the story.
After careful consideration, Jiang Nian left it to fate.
Go to the playground one random morning and if you see Seiichi Yukimura, tell him, if not, forget it.
This was actually cheating. Jiang Nian felt that Yukimura Seiichi would definitely be there, after all, he was there every day before.
One day, Jiang Nian woke up very early, so he walked towards the school playground before the sun rose.
Unexpectedly, all the regular players of the tennis club were running on the playground, including Seiichi Yukimura.
Jiang Nian stopped at the entrance of the playground. It was rare to see so many boys at the same time, and they were all very pleasing to the eye.
For Jiang Nian, who suffers from social anxiety, this is a bit timid and embarrassing.
The sight of the young, handsome boy sweating profusely in front of him made Jiang Nian's heart beat faster.
When the group ran to the vicinity, Jiang Nian saw the look in Yukimura Seiichi's eyes and habitually said, "Come on, come on."
Jiang Nian covered his face with his hands immediately after he finished speaking. He felt so depressed. How wonderful it would be if this moment was fake!
After some mental preparation, Jiang Nian lowered his hand and shouted, "Xingcun-kun, I'll be waiting for you here. Please come over when you're done!"
The people who were running were all thinking about their own things, except for Kirihara Akaya who muttered, "Does the captain need extra lessons too? Osaki must be working hard."
Marui Bunta just happened to hear what Kirihara Akaya said, and without holding back his voice, he sneered, "How is that possible? She must be here to count how many laps we can overtake her."
After hearing what Marui Bunta said, Yukimura's smile widened: "It seems that everyone is full of energy and has time to chat!"
Sanada Genichirō's expression grew increasingly gloomy. "Everyone will increase the number of laps by twenty, and Marui Bunta will increase the number of laps by thirty."
Everyone felt innocent and implicated again, but no one said anything.
In line with the principle of not wasting time, Jiang Nian practiced the newly downloaded listening exercises in a corner.
Once you're immersed in it, everything else seems insignificant.
Don't listen to the sound of leaves being blown by the wind. Why not sing and walk slowly?
Don't be disturbed by all kinds of voices. Focus on doing your own thing and walking your own way. This is the simplest and most effective way.
After Jiang Nian finished a listening test, he relaxed physically and mentally. At this time, he saw Yukimura Seiichi standing next to him and watching him do the test.
After quickly standing up, Jiang Nian said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Yukimura-kun, I didn't see you coming."
"No, I also want to rest here for a while." Yukimura Seiichi's smile was still gentle. "Are you here for a run today?"
Jiang Nian quickly waved his hands: "No, no. I have something to talk to you about."
Yukimura Seiichi seemed to be interested: "Oh? What's going on?"
Jiang Nian saw that the others were still running and didn't want to delay Yukimura Seiichi's training: "It's not a big deal. Are you guys done with training?"
"Of course it's over?" Yukimura Seiichi chuckled. "They made a mistake and were penalized, and then I made another mistake."
Jiang Nian understood immediately: "Xingcun-kun, are you going for a walk? It won't take up too much of your time."
The two walked slowly side by side. It was already bright outside and scattered students were walking into the campus.
"Mr. Yukimura, do you know the story of Tian Ji's horse racing?" Jiang Nian said after careful consideration.
"I've heard a little about it." Yukimura Seiichi looked at Jiang Nian with a little curiosity.
"When our middle-class horses battle against the enemy's lower-class horses, and when our upper-class horses battle against the enemy's middle-class horses, we're guaranteed to win both matches." Jiang Nian paused. "Although our lower-class horses will inevitably lose against the enemy's upper-middle-class horses, we can still win in the end."
After Jiang Nian finished speaking, he grabbed Yukimura Seiichi's forearm, and the two looked at each other face to face.
Jiang Nian looked at the expressionless Yukimura Seiichi and said, "Senior Yukimura, don't be angry. This is just a tactic."
Jiang Nian felt a little uneasy under Yukimura Seiichi's gaze. "I've always believed you have the potential to be champions, but after seeing this story yesterday, I wanted to tell you right away."
Jiang Nian's voice became smaller and smaller, regretting his recklessness.
After hearing the last sentence, Yukimura Seiichi confirmed Jiang Nian's feelings and finally smiled from the heart.
"I will definitely win the championship. Will you come to watch my game?"
Jiang Nian was instantly happy after hearing this, knowing that Yukimura Seiichi was not angry.
"Then can I take a photo?" Jiang Nian wanted to go back to his old job and take the opportunity to make a fortune.
"Of course you can!" Yukimura Seiichi replied with a smile, "But you can only take pictures of me."
Jiang Nian understood this very well. After all, Yukimura Seiichi couldn't make decisions for others.
Jiang Nian nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and began to think about how to distribute the profits more reasonably.
Yukimura Seiichi thought Jiang Nian had agreed to his request, and his smile became even brighter.
