Ellie still couldn't help but ask again, "Are you really okay with the 3,000 meters?" The 3,000 meters requires running seven and a half laps around a 400-meter track, which she couldn't complete.
"Why, looking down on me?"
Ellie shook her head: "No."
William said, "I'll bring you a first place back."
Ellie saw he was teasing her again and smiled, "Okay."
William passed the form over.
Daniel said to William, "William, are you finally participating in the sports meeting?"
Ellie asked in confusion, "You never participated before?"
"No, it's boring."
"Then why are you participating this time, William?"
William just gave Daniel a faint look and said, "I felt like participating."
Daniel said, "It has to be William, never participated in the sports meeting, and when he does, he signs up for the longest and most tiring one."
William didn't respond and said, "Pass it on."
"Alright, William."
Reed saw the form come over, and on the form was the teenager's somewhat unrestrained and free handwriting: William, with a black checkmark next to the 3000 meters.
She was so excited she wanted to run two laps outside.
Last year, no one volunteered for the 3,000 meters, and she had to do it herself, almost fainting after finishing.
She glanced back at Ellie, who was talking to William about something.
For some reason, she felt these two were like a big bad wolf and a little white rabbit, both in terms of physique and appearance.
...
Both programs from Class 17 were selected.
The athletes in the class practiced several times in advance, and Ellie, who was holding the sign, also rehearsed several times.
The night before the sports meeting, during the evening self-study.
Mr. Johnson looked at the restless students and said to the two students sitting next to the podium, "Go and bring the two big boxes from my office."
"Big boxes? Mr. Johnson, what did you buy? It's not test papers for us, is it?"
Mr. Johnson smiled and said, "You'll know when you bring them over."
"Okay." The two boys then called two more boys sitting in the front row.
In a short while, the four of them carried two boxes in.
One of the boys said, "It's quite heavy. It's not really test papers inside, is it?"
Mr. Johnson just smiled and directed them to put the boxes on the podium.
"Mr. Johnson probably got some secret test papers from somewhere."
"You never know, it could be possible."
"No way, no way, do we have to do test papers during the sports meeting?"
Mr. Johnson said, "Those sitting by the window, close the curtains."
"?"
"!"
"Mr. Johnson, you're not going to show a movie, are you?"
"Correct."
The class instantly erupted in cheers.
"Wow, I love you, Mr. Johnson."
"Dude, dude, dude."
"Don't care, let the classes next door be envious."
Mr. Johnson made a shushing gesture and said, "Keep it down, the two classes next door are still in session."
The students in the class immediately covered their mouths.
The head teacher of Class 18 next door, who was watching the class, looked up at the noise. Was Class 17 next door going crazy?
Someone in Class 18 said, "Teacher, Class 17 next door must be showing a movie."
The head teacher of Class 18: "Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors, do your homework."
The students in Class 18: "..."
Ellie had just rolled up the curtains and sat down when they fell down again, so she went to fix the curtains again.
Two hands reached over from behind, and William chuckled, "Finally, there's something Little Prude is not good at."
The distance between the two was a bit close.
Ellie whispered, "I didn't roll it tight enough just now."
William said, "Sit down, I'll roll it."
Ellie looked up slightly to see him stand up and roll the curtains. The teenager had long arms and well-defined hands; he rolled the curtains up in one go, and they didn't fall again. She softly said to William, "Thank you."
William laughed, "No need to thank me, Little Prude."
A really polite student who loves to say thank you.
Mr. Johnson opened the big box and took out the contents, which were a box of ad calcium milk, sunflower seeds, oranges, and potato chips.
He said, "Come on, come on, a few people come and distribute these."
Lucas directly rushed to the podium and said, "I'll distribute, I'll distribute."
Daniel also rushed to the podium and said, "Me too, me too."
Daniel carried the bag of sunflower seeds, and wherever he went, he grabbed a handful and put it on other people's desks.
Passing by Hao Ming, he couldn't help but be mischievous. He grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and put them on Hao Ming's deskmate's desk, saying to him, "Don't give him any."
Hao Ming: "..."
After finishing distributing to the back, Daniel went back and grabbed a handful for Hao Ming, saying, "I love you, I give you more."
"Get lost."
Daniel then went to Ellie and William, grabbed a big handful, and put it between the two, saying, "William, Ellie, I'll give you more."
William responded with a faint "Hmm."
Ellie said, "Thank you."
Everyone received a bottle of milk, an orange, a handful of sunflower seeds, and a small bag of potato chips.
Mr. Johnson saw that the things were distributed and then asked, "Turn off the lights?"
Amidst the sound of turning off the lights, William's "No" was particularly conspicuous.
Daniel looked back at William and said, "William, why don't turn off the light? Aren't you not afraid of the dark?" He suddenly realized and said, "Ellie is afraid of the dark, right?"
Ellie said, "It's okay." As long as it's not suddenly dark, she can still accept it.
It's okay means she is afraid.
Daniel immediately shouted, "Don't turn off the lights."
Mr. Johnson said, "Then turn off the lights at the back and leave the first two on."
The movie was a comedy.
The class was amused, with laughter rising and falling.
At the same time, the head teacher of Class 18 said to the students of Class 18, "Look at Class 17, they can be so happy while studying, maybe next time they will surpass you."
The students of Class 18: "..."
Still think they are watching a movie.
Ellie picked up the milk on the table and couldn't poke it in for a while.
Wondering, she heard William say, "It's reversed."
Ellie then noticed that she had taken the straw in reverse, and before she could put the straw in, the milk in her hand was taken by him. William inserted the straw and handed it over with no expression.
She held the bottle of milk a little absentmindedly.
As soon as class was over, the door of Class 17 was surrounded by people from Class 18 and Class 16.
Daniel saw someone he knew and waved to him, saying, "Come in and watch, come in and watch."
The boy waved his hand at him and said, "I still have homework to finish."
When the bell rang, the onlookers at the door dispersed.
It was a comedy, but it made people cry while laughing.
Ellie was feeling in her drawer for a tissue when a piece of paper was handed over.
She took the paper from him, and William's gaze was still on the screen as she softly said thank you.
The movie finished before the end of the third period, a comedy.
William looked at her slightly red eyes and inexplicably thought of a rabbit.
