Chapter 157: Pre-Competition Preparations 2
The two teachers were doused with a bucket of cold water, feeling utterly chilled to the bone.
Even though the two were displeased, they dared not say anything.
However, they were truly unhappy that Xia Chenge was so distracted, believing their arrangements were the best.
“Chenge, the other events are not important.” Teacher Lin tried to keep his tone calm, “Teacher believes you have a strong advantage in sprints and are more suited to competing for medals in sprints.”
“Can’t you understand human language?” Ling Hanmu said impatiently, “It’s already a great honor for this Young Master to participate in the competition. If you say one more word, this Young Master will not be polite with you!”
The two were immediately scared into a cold sweat by Ling Hanmu.
Ling Hanmu had been too low-key during this time, to the point where they almost forgot that he was the supreme ruler of Yan Sheng High School!
“Yes, yes, we’ll arrange it immediately!” the two said respectfully, lowered their heads, and left dejectedly.
Those who were originally shocked by Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu’s results now dared not speak out of anger, feeling that Ling Hanmu was too much, bossing people around with just a little bit of achievement.
But no matter how much dissatisfaction they had, they could only hide it in their hearts and whisper to those around them:
“Damn, that Ling Hanmu is really arrogant. I really want to find someone to stuff him in a sack and beat him up.”
“That Xia Chenge too, so arrogant. I don’t believe she’s good at every event!”
“Who knows if they run well now, what their results will be in the actual competition, it’s as if the championship has already been won by them, it’s so hateful.”
…
“Hey, they’re saying you’re arrogant!” Xia Chenge relayed what she heard to Ling Hanmu.
Ling Hanmu snorted coldly, “Let them talk. If this Young Master were truly arrogant, they wouldn’t have been able to stay in Haicheng for long. I know exactly what they say about this Young Master behind my back, I’m just too lazy to argue with these imbeciles.”
“I didn’t realize you had such a kind side. I thought you really just spoke with your fists,” Xia Chenge teased.
Ling Hanmu turned his face away unnaturally, “Cough cough cough, having strong fists is the only logic, isn’t it.”
Xia Chenge playfully flicked his ear. She used to not understand why Ling Hanmu was so overbearing in Haicheng, but now she understood, and was naturally teasing him on purpose.
The 100-meter hurdles were ready. Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu walked over, chatting and laughing.
Tong Wei watched Xia Chenge’s eyes only on Ling Hanmu and sighed almost imperceptibly.
Everyone present was not optimistic about Xia Chenge’s 100-meter hurdles, and Teacher Lin was even displeased because Xia Chenge did not follow his arrangements.
However, when Xia Chenge’s hurdles results came out, they were once again stunned.
12.60 seconds!
The world record is 12.20 seconds!
12.59 seconds!
12.62 seconds!
12.62 seconds!
They were dumbfounded, their jaws dropping to the floor.
And Ling Hanmu’s 110-meter hurdles test results were equally impressive.
13.11 seconds!
13.09 seconds!
13.10 seconds!
In the 400-meter relay race test, due to the participation of Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu, the results of both the men’s and women’s teams significantly improved.
No one dared to look down on Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu anymore.
Their faces had been slapped so hard today that they were swollen like pig heads.
Especially Teacher Lin and Teacher Zhang, they didn’t dare to look directly at the two, only daring to repeatedly exclaim in their hearts: Holy crap, are these two human?
“Do the teachers still have any objections to me participating in multiple events?” Xia Chenge looked steadily at Teacher Lin.
Teacher Lin’s face turned red, and he repeatedly said, “No objections, no objections!”
Who dared to have objections? These two little monsters were clearly here to slap faces!
“That’s good. I hope Teacher Lin will not have any special emotions that will affect everyone’s training,” Xia Chenge said gently, implying that they should stop complaining and bossing her around.
The two teachers didn’t dare to breathe heavily. At this moment, they wished they could worship Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu like ancestors, how could they dare to offend them?
Only these two could help them regain their lost honor!
The other team members buried their heads in training, no longer daring to speak ill of Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu.
Xia Chenge glanced at everyone and curved her lips slightly.
Before coming to the competition, she had specifically checked the world records for these events.
If it were based on her own strength, let alone breaking world records, she could create a record that this era could never break! But that would be too astonishing, so she controlled her results to be below the world record, ensuring she could get first place.
“To shut you all up, this Young Master thinks I should practice badminton too!” At this moment, Ling Hanmu said slowly.
Teacher Lin broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said, “Okay, okay!”
“By the way, Teacher, please arrange the strongest players, otherwise I’m afraid I won’t have the spirit to play,” Ling Hanmu said arrogantly.
Teacher Lin wiped his sweat. The badminton court was next to the track and field training ground. The few players participating in the badminton competition heard Ling Hanmu’s words and looked angry, feeling that Ling Hanmu was humiliating them.
“Little Brother, let’s go, we need to practice our chemistry too.” Ling Hanmu put his arm around Xia Chenge’s shoulder and led her to the badminton court.
The track and field athletes, who had been thoroughly defeated by Xia Chenge and Ling Hanmu earlier, now stretched their necks to look towards the badminton court, wanting to see if the two would be defeated in return.
It’s worth noting that for this City Games, Yan Sheng High School had specially recruited Liu Li, who had won first place in the city’s youth badminton competition.
Liu Li had clearly heard Ling Hanmu’s words and looked at Ling Hanmu with disdain, not taking him seriously at all.
“Young Master Ling, please give me your guidance!” Before starting, Liu Li deliberately called out to Ling Hanmu.
The track and field athletes were excited, as this meant Liu Li would go all out against Ling Hanmu, and Ling Hanmu would be in for a tough time!
As expected, after the first match, Ling Hanmu lost quite badly, he was completely dominated by Liu Li.
Xia Chenge put her hand to her forehead. When she went forward with water and a towel for Ling Hanmu, she asked him, “You don’t know how to play badminton?”
“No!” Ling Hanmu admitted frankly.
“Then why are you participating in the competition?” Xia Chenge was helpless.
Ling Hanmu looked wronged, “Little Brother, don’t you believe me?”
“It’s not that I don’t believe you. Badminton is different from track and field. Badminton has techniques, and there are only a few days until the competition. Are you sure you can win the badminton event?” Xia Chenge analyzed seriously, “Why don’t you give up badminton?”
“Impossible! Just because I don’t know how to now doesn’t mean I never will.” Ling Hanmu flatly refused, “Besides, there’s nothing this Young Master can’t learn.”
“There’s one thing you’ll never learn,” Xia Chenge raised an eyebrow.
“That’s impossible,” Ling Hanmu said proudly.
Xia Chenge curved her lips, “Can you give birth to a child?”
Ling Hanmu: “……”
“Alright, you’re up next. Don’t force yourself if you don’t know how,” Xia Chenge said, patting his shoulder with a smile.
Ling Hanmu took two steps, then turned back to Xia Chenge and said, “Although I can’t give birth to a child, I’m indispensable for childbirth, so I have half the credit for giving birth.”
Xia Chenge stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
Ling Hanmu beamed.
The two were talking without hiding anything from others, so naturally, others heard their conversation. Although the latter part was a bit speechless, the former part made them extremely excited.
Ling Hanmu doesn’t know how to play badminton!
Second update complete. Thank you to the little cuties who tipped. Good night everyone, muah!
