"Since the principal has a competition, there must be rewards, right?" Shen Muqing smiled at the principal and took the tea he offered.
The principal couldn't help but wipe his sweat. What kind of mischief was this young lady up to?
"Yes, yes, do you have any good ideas, Shen?"
No wonder he became a school principal; his ability to read people and situations is something few others possess.
"I'm funding the prize for first place in this 3,000-meter race: a limited-edition new C brand bag. Principal, all you need to do is spread the word."
Is it really that simple?
"Yes, but I already have someone in mind for first place."
"No problem, Ms. Shen, that's easy. I'll send out the message right away." The principal breathed a sigh of relief. He thought this young lady would be difficult to deal with, but she was so easy to talk to. It seemed that the library was saved.
Almost the instant Shen Muqing stepped out of the office, all grades erupted in excitement, especially the fashion-loving girls. When did the school become so extravagant? This bag is worth 800,000 yuan, and more importantly, it's extremely difficult to buy. There are only two in the world, and even having money doesn't guarantee you can get one. And yet, one of these bags is in the school's possession.
"Yu Meng, have you heard? The prize for first place in the 3000-meter race is that bag you used to really like."
Su Xueshan received the news firsthand and immediately informed Qiao Yumeng.
"Really? Is that true? But the registration deadline has passed." Qiao Yumeng's eyes lit up and then dimmed again upon hearing this; she had wanted that bag for a long time.
"Yu Meng, have you forgotten who I am? That's easy, I'll just talk to the person in charge and add our names."
Su Xueshan couldn't help but be tempted by the high reward, and Jiang Qiulan beside her was also eager to try it out, really wanting that bag too.
"Alright, then it's up to you, Xue Shan."
Su Xueshan went out excitedly but came back with a long face. "Yumeng, the person in charge said the number of people has been finalized. We can't increase it, but we can change it."
"I understand. Since we can exchange, then we can..." Jiang Qiulan stared at Lin Xi's direction with ill intent.
Shen Muqing had been keeping an eye on the three of them in the classroom. Seeing that it was indeed the case, he got up to find Lin Xi and greeted her first. Lin Xi didn't understand, but she cooperated.
A scene unfolded in the classroom: Su Xueshan first bought Lin Xi a drink, then smiled ingratiatingly...
"Lin, I made a mistake with the 3000-meter mark. I accidentally filled in your name and Shen's name. I'm so sorry."
"I'm very sorry, Shen."
Shen Muqing leaned against Lin Xi and exchanged a glance with her. "It's okay. I wasn't planning on running. I didn't expect the reward for the 3,000 meters to be a limited-edition bag. It's a blessing in disguise."
"Right, Qiqi? I heard that the number of people participating in the 3,000-meter race this year can be counted on two hands. We are so lucky."
“Yes, we should also thank Su, because her accident gave us this opportunity.” Lin Xi picked up where she left off, smiling happily.
That smile stung Qiao Yumeng's eyes. Su Xueshan's lips twitched slightly as she smiled. "You're welcome, you're welcome."
"I wonder if Lin and Shen have any ideas about giving up their spots. After all, the 3,000 meters is not the same as the 100 meters; it's quite physically demanding." Jiang Qiulan's tone was entirely considerate of the two of them.
"No, I'll crawl there even if I have to, it's a bag worth 800,000."
Shen Muqing refused, her face also wearing a fake smile.
"Excuse me, Su, I also want to participate in the competition."
"I'll give you the money to buy these two spots. Just tell me how much you want."
Qiao Yumeng was a little impatient. Ever since they had a falling out last time, she had disliked Shen Muqing and Lin Xi and didn't even bother to put on a show.
"Money is just an external thing to me; what I really want is that bag."
Is 100,000 enough?
"One hundred thousand, Qiqi, what do you think?" Shen Muqing asked Lin Qi.
"Qingqing, let's try to get it, it's 800,000!"
Lin Xi spoke with a slight exaggeration, and the two of them sang in unison, their collaboration seamless.
"Two hundred thousand, two hundred thousand per person."
"Qiqi, I still think..."
"Three hundred thousand. You two, that's enough."
Jiang Qiulan slightly stopped Qiao Yumeng, saying, "Isn't Yumeng too ambitious? You might not be able to win if you participate."
"Don't worry about it, that bag will definitely be mine." Qiao Yumeng couldn't listen to anyone at this moment; her mind was completely focused on that bag.
She wanted the bag that Yi Ci had bought and given to that person, hoping that it would make her feel like she had won his love.
"Qiqi, is 300,000 okay?"
"Um..."
The two pretended to think, and finally Shen Muqing pretended to be very reluctant and said, "Then I'll give it to you. Is the 300,000 in cash, check, or bank card?"
"bank card."
"When will Miss Qiao be transferring?"
"Now, give me your card numbers." Qiao Yumeng said urgently, holding her phone.
"No problem, right away."
The next second, a beautiful and pleasant mechanical female voice came from Shen Muqing and Lin Xi's phones.
"**300,000 RMB has been deposited into your bank account. Please check!"
"Thank you, Miss Qiao, you are so generous."
Shen Muqing looked at the message on her phone. This time, her smile at Qiao Yumeng was genuine. Earning 300,000 yuan for free was like picking up money off the street.
"Hmph." Qiao Yumeng snorted and walked away haughtily.
"Qingqing, is this a good idea for us?" Lin Xi asked Shen Muqing, seemingly worried.
"Qiqi, don't tell me you're a saint?"
"Of course not, I mean maybe we're asking for too little. That bag is worth eight hundred thousand!"
Lin Xi made an eight gesture with his hand, speaking earnestly.
"You're amazing. Looks like I'm still too kind."
Hahahahahaha.
In just one month, Lin Xi earned 500,000 yuan from the previous transaction plus 300,000 yuan this time, which was just enough to pay for her mother's surgery, and her burden was greatly reduced.
She didn't care where the money came from, as long as it could save her mother's life.
The sports meet arrived amidst everyone's anticipation. Everyone eagerly awaited the 3,000-meter race, even those who couldn't participate themselves, just to join in the excitement and see who would take first place.
The 3,000-meter race was on the second day, and Qiao Yumeng and Su Xueshan had prepared well in advance for this competition.
Fewer than ten athletes stood on the spacious track, all of whom were participating in the 3,000-meter race.
Qiao Yumeng and Su Xueshan exchanged a glance, both determined to win first place.
"Bang"
The gun fired, the race began, and everyone ran as fast as they could. Qiao Yumeng surprisingly took the lead and ran ahead of everyone else, which made her even more confident that the bag was hers.
For some reason, apart from Su Xueshan, the others always followed Qiao Yumeng at a leisurely pace. They seemed to be running very easily, but they just couldn't overtake Qiao Yumeng.
Qiao Yumeng was out of breath from running, her brain was short of oxygen, and she didn't think much. She was still smug about being the first place winner, and it seemed that her approach was correct.
A dozen minutes later, with only 100 meters left, Qiao Yumeng was still in first place, a fact that made her very happy.
But she was so tired, and she couldn't stop, so she could only grit her teeth and persevere.
Just as she was gathering her strength to sprint, several figures flashed past her, leaving only afterimages.
Before Qiao Yumeng could figure out what was happening, she heard loud cheers from ahead. When she refocused her eyes and saw what was happening, everything went black.
The people she had left behind suddenly appeared in front of her. She was so angry she almost fainted. Her limited edition bag, her 600,000 yuan!
Thinking this, I didn't expect to be unable to breathe and actually faint, falling onto the rubber track.
"Yu Meng!"
Su Xueshan shouted loudly and stopped to weakly help her up.
Soon the school medical team arrived and carried her out of the scene on a stretcher.
Sitting in the audience, Shen Muqing watched the scene below with amusement. She had finally gotten her revenge. Spreading rumors about her? Well, they would have to pay the price.
Xie Siyan sat quietly beside her, fanning the girl. Although he didn't know what Shen Muqing was laughing about, he was also very happy, as he was the only one by her side at that moment.
