who stole my time

It was not too unexpected for Jin Lai to get the No.2 ranking. After all, Zhao Yuanjun had practiced for many years, and his quick success was naturally inferior.Besides, Zhao Yuanjun's strength is still reserved, it seems that it is to take into account his No.2 face and not to widen the gap in performance.

Jin Lai went up to shake hands with Zhao Yuanjun, and congratulated each other on business.Then turned around to go to the triple jump competition, Zhao Yuanjun followed him, Jin Lai turned around, "Is it the opponent again?"

"Of course, hello, opponent." Zhao Yuanjun patted him with a smile, and the two walked towards the side of the playground side by side.

There are not many triple jumpers, and many of them had their legs injured to varying degrees due to improper training before the competition, so the competition for rankings took place among the real masters.

The triple jump venue was very close to the stands of the Department of Architecture. When Jin Lai heard his classmates cheering for him, he immediately felt a lot of pressure.

The final officially began, and the contestants entered the field one by one and took off.When it was Jin Lai's turn to jump, he didn't master his strength well, and he didn't jump beyond the expected level.

Zhao Yuanjun played at a high level as always and won No.1.

Jin Lai suddenly felt a deep sense of frustration in his heart. He had prepared for so many days, but because of a momentary mistake on the field, all his previous efforts were in vain.He walked back to the class stand slowly, without even listening to the referee's final announcement of the final results, without any expression on his face, and sat back in his seat stiffly.

He waited for the team to announce its disbandment, and will fight the final 3000-meter long-distance race and 4X100-meter relay tomorrow.

The students around congratulated him, but soon realized that something was wrong. The air pressure around Jin Lai was very low, and he turned a deaf ear to other students' congratulations, obviously unhappy.

The others shut their mouths wisely and stopped talking.Jin Lai fixed his gaze on the people coming and going on the playground, but no one could guess what was going on in his heart.

Not long after, at around five o'clock in the afternoon, the loudspeakers in the playground played the good news of each department today, and a series of official nonsense to promote the campaign and praise youthful vitality, and then it was announced that the classes were disbanded.Looking forward to tomorrow's final.

When Jin Lai was walking out with the flow of people, someone knocked on his shoulder. He was walking distracted, thinking that the bump was caused by overcrowding, so he didn't care.But soon someone shook his shoulder vigorously, "Hey, why are you ignoring me when I'm talking to you?"

Only then did Jin Lai realize that the person opposite him was Zhao Yuanjun, "What's wrong?"

"What do you say?...Are you in a bad mood?" Zhao Yuanjun found that Jin Lai seemed to have a sad face all the time.

"No." Jin Lai clenched his fist, "Tired."

"It's not because you lost to me, you're in a bad mood, right?" Zhao Yuanjun asked tentatively.

"No, it has nothing to do with you." Jin Lai immediately denied it.

"No matter what it is,...what a big deal, otherwise, let's go out tonight and have a good meal. After eating, I guarantee that you will be in a much better mood than now." Zhao Yuanjun sincerely wanted to pull him to eat together, " There is a crayfish restaurant near the school, which tastes good. In the past, the people in our dormitory often went out to eat. They didn’t treat themselves as outsiders, and they ate me hundreds of times. Anyway, it’s just the two of us today, so you just open up Eat, I'm treating you, you're welcome!"

Jin came to see him talking on his own for a long time, and even warmly and generously invited him to dinner.When it comes to Zhao Yuanjun unilaterally entertaining guests at dinner, the two of them are not that familiar.But the other party has said so, and it seems unreasonable to refuse.

Jin Lai had no choice but to compromise and said, "It's okay to have a meal together, and also express your gratitude for your guidance during this time. But the meal price is AA, or I treat you."

Zhao Yuanjun thought for a few seconds, not wanting to hurt Jin's self-esteem, nodded and said, "Okay, it's also an early celebration meal for tomorrow's final."

The two set off, turned around together, and walked outside the school gate.

When they arrived at the crayfish shop that Zhao Yuanjun mentioned, they ordered three plates of lobster and four cans of beer.In fact, Jin Lai had never eaten this before. When he saw Zhao Yuanjun wearing a pair of gloves, he grabbed and ate it with his hands. He lowered his head in a daze to look at the lobster with whiskers and horns in his hand, and found it difficult to swallow.

Zhao Yuanjun turned around and saw that he was helpless with the lobster, and said with a smile, "Brother, are you allergic to lobster or don't you like to eat it?"

Jin Lai shook his head, "I think it's very pitiful, it can maintain its hard appearance until it dies. But we have to tear it apart and eat it, eat it, and throw the mutilated limbs into the ruins. The meaning of its life..."

Jin Lai was interrupted by Zhao Yuanjun before he finished speaking. Zhao Yuanjun pretended to be angry and said, "You did it on purpose. If you can't eat it, I will give it to you. Eat it quickly." Zhao Yuanjun had noticed that the other party couldn't eat it, so After peeling a few, they stuffed them directly into his mouth, smiling triumphantly.

Jin Lai instinctively refused to lean back, and he had to open his mouth to catch the meat on his mouth.After chewing a few mouthfuls, he thought it was quite delicious.

Jin Lai simply gave up his previous thoughts of feeling sorry for the lobster. The two of them ate very full and finished their beer. Jin Lai was a little smug, but his consciousness was clear.On the contrary, Zhao Yuanjun didn't know what kind of nerves he was getting, he seemed to be drunk or really drunk, and he babbled nonsense. Anyway, Jin Lai had never seen someone who could get drunk after drinking beer, so he ignored him and went to the counter to pay the bill.

This shop is quite conscientious, and the two of them ate less than a hundred.Jin Lai thought that Zhao Yuanjun had done his best to help him before, but now that he returned the meal, he didn't have any objections, and paid the money neatly.

Jin Lai went back and saw that Zhao Yuanjun was still in the seat, so he stepped forward and called him to go. Zhao Yuanjun stood up unsteadily and seemed to fall when he walked.Jin Lai had no choice but to support him. Before he left, he saw that the other party's coat was still draped over the back of the chair, so he took it with him and went back to school.

Jin Lai helped him walk for a while, which felt really tiring, because Zhao Yuanjun's weight was solid and muscular, and he was not short.Jin Lai walked to the school gate and was about to put the other party down for a rest, but Zhao Yuanjun vomited on the side of the road as soon as he was let go.

Jin Lai panicked all of a sudden, he had to play tomorrow, if he had a physical problem today, it would be a big oolong.

Zhao Yuanjun vomited as soon as he squatted on the ground, Jin Lai patted him on the back, feeling extremely guilty.If the two don't eat that much tonight, or if he knows that the other party can't drink, he should persuade the other party to drink less.In this situation, it is really a small loss.

Zhao Yuanjun slowly stood up by himself, as if he had vomited himself soberly, he said, "I ate too much, and my stomach was overwhelmed. Tomorrow's game..."

"Don't think too much, you're fine." Jin Lai said firmly, then picked up Zhao Yuanjun, crossed more than half of the campus, sent him to the infirmary, took some medicine, and sent him back to the dormitory, "Drink your medicine today, Take a good rest, and you will still be alive and well when you wake up tomorrow."

Zhao Yuanjun smiled feebly, "Thank you for your kind words."

"I'm leaving," Jin Lai bid him farewell, and finally turned around and added, "You said that the number one is yours, so don't run away."

After hearing this, Zhao Yuanjun nodded firmly, made a cheering gesture, and returned to the dormitory.

The next day, preparations for the 3000-meter long-distance race began.Jin Lai and twenty other contestants stood on their respective tracks at the same time, including Zhao Yuanjun. Judging by Zhao Yuanjun's condition, he was recovering well.

The gunshots rang out and everyone rushed out of the starting line with an order. Jin Lai took his time and maintained his physical strength at a uniform speed.It took seven and a half laps to run, and it was impossible to go too fast or too slow at the beginning. The physical exertion was huge, and Jin Lai remained in the middle and upper reaches.

On the contrary, Zhao Yuanjun ran to the front row first, and left the others far behind in the first lap.

In the second and third laps, the pattern changed in microseconds.Some physically weak players began to slow down and gradually slipped from the upstream level to the back row.Jin Lai unknowingly overtook the two contestants, but still maintained a constant speed and steady pace.Zhao Yuanjun still took the lead.

On the fourth and fifth laps of the race, the difference in physical strength became more and more obvious. Most people slowed down a lot. One player even gave up halfway and lay down on the playground lawn to breathe heavily.Jin Lai began to speed up at this time, and at the same time, the four players were also slowly speeding up.

On the sixth lap, Jin Lai narrowed the gap with the other competitors. He kept accelerating and jumped from No. 3 to No. [-].

Zhao Yuanjun, who had always been in the lead, was obviously not as fast as before. At the beginning of the seventh lap, Jin Lai overtook No.2 at the corner and became No.2.

Now he has only one opponent, Zhao Yuanjun who has been on the top.

All the spectators in the stands began to get excited. They all stood up from their seats and shouted the names of the players in their respective classes to cheer for them.

Jin Lai's physical strength has also reached a limit, he is almost out of strength, and only relying on perseverance to accelerate, to fight for the distant No.1 and face the final powerful opponent.

Zhao Yuanjun's speed also began to increase slowly, as if preparing for the final sprint.Jin Lai gritted his teeth, shouted, and rushed to the last 200 meters with his long legs.

Zhao Yuanjun heard Jin Lai's voice, looked back distractedly, turned around and smiled, and sprinted faster without saying a word.But Jin Lai didn't know where the strength came from, so he accelerated faster, shortening the distance between the two of them visible to the naked eye.

In the end, the shouts of the audience became intense, and Jin Lai burst out with amazing strength. At the last moment, he rushed to the finish line ahead of Zhao Yuanjun by one second.

The moment they reached the finish line, both of them fell to the ground exhausted. The 3000-meter long-distance race ended with No.1 and No.2 surpassing the other competitors.
