Return to the leisurely life on the island - Chapter 114: School Sports Meet?

Chapter 114 School Sports Meet?

Playing badminton with such a group of beautiful girls.

The exercise effect is definitely hard to say, but for the other party, it is still quite interesting.

From time to time, you can hit some high balls to bully them, or deliberately let them miss a few balls, and you can easily get the girls' clear and pleasant laughter.

When they encounter some balls that they can't catch, Fang Wei can catch the ball and gain admiration from everyone. It feels so good.

The three teams of classmates won and lost against each other. Except for Fang Wei, the other five girls were sweating profusely. Even Liu Zhiyi, who usually didn't like sports, felt that they had a lot of fun.

With this batch of new sports equipment, the atmosphere in physical education classes has also been ignited.

When Teacher Niu had nothing to do, he would stand with his hands behind his back and watch them play basketball, table tennis, and badminton, occasionally giving some instructions.

When he arrived at the badminton court, Xu Cailing had just been substituted out.

Because of his intimidating physique and his usually serious appearance, most of the students in the class are afraid of Teacher Niu.

But Xu Cailing is not afraid of him.

Seeing Teacher Niu coming over here, the girl came up to him and asked with a grin:

"Teacher Niu, when did the school get so many new sports equipment?"

"It just arrived two days ago on the weekend. How is it? Is everything ok?"

"No problem! It works!"

Xu Cailing said, and then whispered curiously: "Teacher Niu, why is the school suddenly so generous?"

"It's about time to replace them. Many of the previous ones are rotten and can't be used anymore!"

Xu Cailing's eyes rolled around, and she remembered what Fang Wei had said to her yesterday, so she asked again:

"Teacher Niu, I heard that some schools hold sports meets. Does our school also have a sports meet?"

"..."

Niu Wengang was stunned for a moment, looked down at the curious girl, and whispered, "Who told you that?"

"Guess!"

"Haha, your guess is pretty accurate..."

"what?"

Xu Cailing reacted and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Teacher Niu means... is it true?! Is that why the school specially replaced the sports equipment this time?!"

"I'm not sure yet, let's wait until it's announced."

Many schools in big cities hold large-scale events such as school sports meets, but it is a pity that Baitan Middle School has never held a school sports meet in all these years since its establishment.

Firstly, the school conditions are limited, and secondly, the level of participation among teachers and students is not necessarily high.

Organizing activities costs money, and it also takes up class time. The school leaders are not willing to spend the time to do this.

Niu Wengang has suggested more than once that the school should hold a sports meet. The school leaders said nice things and that they should wait and see the situation. But after so many years, there has been no follow-up.

It was not until the end of the Olympics last month that Niu Wengang took the opportunity to raise this suggestion to school leaders.

Perhaps it was the recent craze for nationwide sports, or perhaps some instructions from above, but this time the school leaders' attitudes clearly changed.

From "wait and see" to "how about taking some time out in the next two months to hold a school sports meet?"

Niu Wengang was still unsure whether the school sports meet could be held, so he took the opportunity to ask the school to pay for the replacement of the sports equipment that was usually used, so as to get the benefits first...

Xu Cailing was obviously very interested in the school sports meet. After listening to him, the little girl asked again:

"Teacher Niu, what does uncertainty mean?"

“…It’s just following the process.”

Niu Wengang smiled and said, "You think it's easy to organize a school sports meet? It's not something that can be done just by saying it. You have to arrange time, formulate projects, and evaluate feasibility... Why, you really want to participate in the school sports meet?"

"I do!" Xu Cailing said honestly.

"What project do you want to participate in?" Niu Wengang asked curiously.

"What events are there in the school sports meet?" Xu Cailing asked.

Cai Ling's question happened to be Niu Wengang's recent work. He needed to arrange and formulate some projects and submit them to the school leaders for review and approval.

"Running, high jump, long jump, shot put, class tug-of-war, etc."

“I can participate in any of them!!”

"...?"

"By the way, Mr. Niu, why didn't you swim?"

"... Be realistic, where is the swimming pool in our school?"

"Too."

Although it was a pity that there was no swimming competition, these track and field events were also her forte. Xu Cailing felt her blood boiling just by listening to them.

Niu Wengang could see her excitement. It was interesting to note that in all his years as a teacher, he had never seen a girl who loved sports as much as Xu Cailing and who even ran to run for the position of sports committee member.

"Then, Mr. Niu, if he wins an award at the school sports meet, will he also be included in the honor roll or something..."

When she said this, the girl chuckled a little embarrassedly.

"I don't know about that, but if the school really does it, it will definitely give corresponding honors. As for whether it will give out certificates or medals, we'll talk about it after it's done."

Niu Wengang didn't have the heart to hit her, and emphasized again: "This matter is not certain yet. When it is confirmed, your teacher Wen will tell you."

"Teacher Niu! You must make sure your application is successful!"

"..."

Why are you applying for a school sports meet? It's like applying for the Olympic Games!

"Anyway, this matter is still uncertain, so just keep it to yourself. Keep it secret for now and don't tell other students." Teacher Niu reminded.

"Don't worry, Mr. Niu! I will keep it a secret!"

……

night.

Xu Cailing talked to Fang Wei about the school sports meet.

You can't blame her for not keeping the secret! Fang Wei is not an outsider, so it's definitely okay to tell him!

In fact, among the four members of Pineapple Island, she only told this matter secretly to Fang Wei.

Otherwise, it would be very painful to keep such a big thing in your heart alone!

After hearing what she said, Fang Wei cooperated by putting on an extremely surprised expression and exclaimed, "You really got what you wanted? Is our school really going to hold a sports meet?"

Seeing Fang Wei's shocked expression, Xu Cailing was very satisfied and nodded, "Yes! Anyway, that's what Teacher Niu said, but it's not certain yet, so you are not allowed to tell anyone else!"

"Don't worry, things only come in through my ears and never go out of my mouth." "..."

Why do I always feel like this stinky guy is being sarcastic?! Next time I won't tell you if there's anything!

Xu Cailing rolled up a ball of paper and threw it at him.

Fang Wei smiled. If nothing unexpected happens, the school sports meet should start at the end of the month. Starting from this year, Baitan Middle School will hold a school sports meet every year.

However, it was only after hearing Cai Ling's story that he realized that it was Teacher Niu who had been applying for the school sports meet.

On weekdays, Teacher Niu teaches according to the routine and is not much different from other physical education teachers, but I didn’t expect that he still has a pure heart that loves sports.

Perhaps that is why Cai Ling, as the physical education committee member, can get along so well with the physical education teacher.

On the other side of the windowsill, the girl's small hands supported her face, her big eyes blinked, the corners of her mouth curved, and her legs swayed.

"What are you daydreaming about again?" Fang Wei asked curiously.

"...No."

"Then what are you thinking about?"

"I was thinking about what you told me last time. Since the school will hold a sports meet, will there be a school team at that time? If I win a lot of first places in the sports meet, can I join the school team? If I represent the school in other competitions and win a lot of first places, can I attract the attention of the provincial team? Will I have the opportunity to become an athlete? If I join the national team... hehe."

Oftentimes, the charm of young girls lies in these almost naive dreams, which are a privilege unique to their youth. No one will laugh at them for this, but it adds a lot of innocence and loveliness to them.

Fang Wei smiled after hearing this and said, "That being said, you used the word 'if' too many times in this sentence!"

"I, I was just thinking about it casually!" Xu Cailing was embarrassed.

"Really just a random thought?"

"Ok!"

"You are dishonest."

"...Okay, I am a little serious."

Xu Cailing pinched her little finger carefully, indicating that she was probably serious about it.

Fang Wei looked at it with both anger and amusement.

That's normal, all the words said are big talk, and no one wants to be hit by the boomerang of their own words one day.

But he also knew that behind these seemingly empty words, there were many of her true thoughts.

Although Cai Ling updates her dream version frequently, she has never given up on her dream of becoming an excellent athlete.

In fact, in Cai Ling’s previous life, her so-called athletic talent seemed to have disappeared after she entered junior high school. She didn’t even dare to fight for the title of sports commissioner, and her performance in the school sports meet was not outstanding.

Fang Wei had also been curious before, was it really that his talent had disappeared?

Later he realized that talent would never disappear. Just like many athletes, what disappeared was only the spirit.

When a person loses his pride and feels that he cannot go on the path that he can clearly see on his own, his so-called talent will naturally disappear.

Putting aside objective physical factors, most people whose talents suddenly disappear are simply because they are afraid, have lost their courage, and no longer dare to believe in themselves.

Fortunately, under his influence in this life, Cai Ling has become much more cheerful and brave, and has become more courageous in striving for those seemingly unrealistic dreams.

Following Cai Ling's previous words, Fang Wei said:

"But since Teacher Niu has mentioned it to you, I think the school sports meet is a sure thing."

"real?!"

"This is called a sunk cost. The school has already spent money on replacing sports equipment. It's only natural to hold a school sports meet while it's going on."

"Fang Wei, if there is a school sports meet, what event will you participate in?"

"What about you?" Fang Wei asked back.

“I want to participate!”

Xu Cailing chuckled, "It's a pity there's no swimming competition, otherwise I would definitely be able to win another first place!"

"many?"

"Isn't it normal for me to get first place in running, high jump, and long jump?"

"Ha ha……"

Very good, Cai Ling is as arrogant as ever.

"Fang Wei, if I win first place, what kind of reward will the school give me?"

"What reward do you want?"

"Gold medal or something..."

"…Don't even think about bringing real gold, but there might be a medal."
