The setting sun gave the teenager a soft aura, and William said, "Let me carry that for you."
"Thank you."
"There's no need to thank me."
This somewhat puzzled Ellie, and she asked, "Then what should I say?"
"Say anything you like."
"Then you're welcome."
"Stealing my line?" William chuckled.
Ellie replied, "You said anything is fine."
Amused by her, William said, "Alright, then you can say you're welcome."
Back in class.
Mr. Johnson said, "Just relax and enjoy the sports day, and we'll watch a movie during this evening study session."
"Great!"
"Lucas, you've become quite famous at school. Many teachers asked me today if you're from our class."
The class burst into laughter.
Mr. Johnson continued, "But you did run well, bringing back a first place."
Lucas: "Yes, sir."
The class laughed again.
Mr. Johnson waved a USB drive in his hand and said, "Have a good time at the sports day, and we'll watch movies for the next few days."
"Great!"
...
Blake said to Landon, "I've found out, she transferred this semester, ranked third in the grade, almost as abnormally smart as you, very well-behaved,It is said that she doesn't have a boyfriend, and the guy you saw should be her deskmate."
"Deskmate?"
Blake said, "Yeah, her deskmate, the school bully from No. 6 Middle School, nobody in this school doesn't know him."
Landon listened to his words and was slightly distracted.
...
The students in the class were initially excited about watching movies, but by the second day of the evening study, they were somewhat numb.
Daniel said, "I've watched more movies in these two days than I have in the whole previous semester, my brain is going to explode."
Hao Ming: "When you can't see them, you want to watch, but when you watch too many, you get tired of them."
"Why do you make it sound like I'm a heartbreaker?"
"Aren't you?"
"Get lost, I've never even been in a relationship, and you're calling me a heartbreaker."
"You just look like one."
"..."
...
On the last day of the sports day.
Before Lucas went on, Mr. Johnson urged him, "This is the last competition, come on."
Lucas said, "I promise to complete the mission."
He then went on the field.
Beside a few athletes, Lucas looked a bit thin and small.
The referee's starting gun fired.
Lucas sprinted out.
He had a strong explosive power, not as abnormal as William, but he pulled a small distance from the people behind in the first lap.
In the second lap.
He glanced back, then rushed to the finish line.
He got first place.
Class 17 erupted in cheers.
Lucas returned to the class, and amidst the congratulations, he said, "Keep it low-key."
A girl in the women's 800 meters also achieved a good result of second place.
Three thousand meters.
Before William went on.
Ellie handed him a bottle of glucose and said, "To prevent hypoglycemia."
William finished the bottle of glucose and said, "Little prude is quite considerate."
Ellie knew he was teasing her again and said, "Come on in the competition, remember to warm up first, or you might cramp."
"Got it." William smiled at her, a bit rogueishly.
Landon saw the interaction between the two.
After warming up.
The referee reminded the athletes to take their positions.
Next to William was Landon.
As soon as the starting gun fired.
Everyone rushed out of the track.
William and Landon were almost side by side, the distance between the two was very close.
Ellie watched that figure nervously.
Aria said, "Ellie, that handsome guy and William are chasing so closely, I don't know who will get the first place this time."
Although it wasn't her running, Ellie's heart was always beating fast.
In the last lap, almost everyone was somewhat exhausted.
Still in the lead were William and Landon, with another boy trailing behind.
"William."
"Come on!"
William heard that soft encouragement and smiled with a hook on his lips.
Ellie watched him suddenly exert himself and directly pulled away from the people behind.
Amidst the cheers of Class 17, the teenager crossed the finish line.
He searched for Ellie in the crowd, and the moment he met her gaze, he smiled with a hook on his lips.
Landon got second place.
He wanted to go find Ellie for her contact information after the race, but saw that guy also heading towards that shed.
Ellie handed water and paper to William, her apricot eyes curved with a smile, and she said, "Congratulations, you're first."
William was about to speak when a male voice rang out next to him: "Sorry, I'm here to borrow water again."
Ellie handed a bottle of water to Landon.
William glanced at him and said nothing.
Landon took a few sips of water and said, "I've been coming to borrow water these days, thanks a lot."
Ellie said, "This sports day is co-organized by No. 6 Middle School and No. 17 Middle School, it's our duty."
Hearing this, Landon smiled and said, "I heard that your grades are particularly good, have you considered participating in a physics competition together in the future?"
"I haven't thought about it."
"Then let's exchange contact information, so we can discuss any questions in the future."
Ellie licked her lips and said, "Okay."
William silently listened to the conversation between the two.
What discussing questions, it was clearly an excuse to get her contact information.
Little prude didn't suspect at all.
Tsk.
Really naive.
As Ellie handed over the paper, she heard a "bang" sound.
Ellie looked at the water bottle that fell on the ground and said, "What's wrong?"
"A bit of hand weakness."
"Dizzy?"
"I wasn't dizzy before, but now I suddenly feel a bit."
Ellie reached out to support him and said, "It might be hypoglycemia."
William leaned half his body on her and said, "I don't know, I just feel dizzy."
Landon held the paper, not knowing whether to leave or stay, and said, "Then I'll go first, see you if fate allows, Ellie."
Ellie "hummed" and said, "See you if fate allows."
William leaned most of his body on her, but he didn't dare to lean completely on her, fearing he would crush her.
Seeing Ellie's slightly furrowed brows, he thought she was really cute.
From his perspective, he could see her profile, curled eyelashes, and a pert nose, rosy lips.
Her lips looked very soft and kissable.
William was startled by his own thoughts.
He averted his gaze again.
Ellie helped him sit on a chair, took out a piece of candy from her pocket, unwrapped it, and held it to his lips, saying, "Have a piece of candy, it will get better."
The candy was strawberry flavored.
Ellie asked again, "Do you want water?"
William shook his head.
Aria had just finished giving water to someone and saw Ellie helping William back, she asked, "What's wrong? Ellie."
Ellie said, "Hypoglycemia."
"That will take a while to recover, you need to replenish some sugar."
"I've already had candy."
Aria said, "That's good." Then she added, "Did that handsome guy just ask for your contact information?"
Ellie "hummed" and said, "He said we can discuss academic questions in the future."
"No, Ellie, do you really believe that?"
"Ah?"
Seeing Ellie's puzzled gaze, Aria was about to speak when she heard someone next to her say, "Just an excuse to get her contact information."
