On the second day of the school sports festival, Mr. Qin once again threw the company's affairs to Chen De and his subordinates, then went to school with his two children.

Su Bei was surprised, and so was Su Xiaobao. The boy didn't say anything and even seemed annoyed when he saw Mr. Qin followed them to school. However, the joy in his eyes couldn't fool anyone.

Su Bei's competition was scheduled today, a 400-meter middle distance race.

Although 400-meter race didn't require a quick sprint like the 50-meter nor did it test the endurance like an 800-meter one, but in fact, it was harder than the other two.

Originally other students, including Dong Wenqi, thought that Su Bei only wanted to participate and wasn't aiming for a win. But to everyone's surprise, Su Bei actually did excellently on the field and finally took the second place.

Mr. Qin took the back photo of Su Bei when she ran across the finish line and posted it into his WeChat with a short line: My daughter won the second place in race, not bad.

Not surprisingly, this post was instantly barraged with another wave of rainbow farts.

As for Su Xiaobao, who already won 5 first places...

Mr. Qin only said: Just so-so.

After finishing the only event she signed up to and even got the second place, Su Bei was naturally happy. Now she had nothing more to do, she was originally going to relax and watch the rest of the sports festival with Dong Wenqi while occasionally browsing the school forum and Weibo. But to her surprise, her classmate Li Xiaoyan came with their class leader. Their face looked awkward.

"Su Bei."

"What's happen?" Su Bei saw Li Xiaoyan's embarrassed face and asked.

Li Xiaoyan: "Can you run in my place for the next 4 x 100 relay race?"

Li Xiaoyan pulled Su Bei closer and whispered in panic: "You see, my great aunt(1) suddenly come..." She also wanted to be a runner girl, but how could she know that her 'relative' would come uninvited today.

(1) Great Aunt: girl's period.

Su Bei was stunned for a moment before nodding understandingly: "I can run on your behalf. But I never practiced short distance run and may drag our class down instead." Su Bei then glanced at the class leader hesitantly. Even though she had some coaching for this sports festival, she only trained for the middle distance run.

Class leader: "You did well in 400 meters. 100 meter won't be a problem."

All other girls in their class who were relatively good in sports have been participating in more than one competition, except Su Bei. The remaining girls were mostly at Dong Wenqi's level, who were only suitable for the cheering team. After pondering her options, the class leader thought that Su Bei was the most suitable.

After a pause, she said to Su Bei: "It's okay. Su Bei, you just have to do your best, no need to be pressured. On this race, our class only focuses on participation and isn't aiming for a win."

All thanks to Su Xiaobao's and Xie Minxuan's over performance. Because of those two boys, their class already won several first places from a number of individual competitions. Adding up these points, class 8-7's current total score was far ahead of other classes in their grade. Even if they didn't get a good rank in this relay race, their current first position wouldn't be shaken. Moreover, she also had to be honest: Su Bei's last spurt in the 400-meter race was pretty fast.

The class leader felt that their class wouldn't lose that easily.

"All right, I will try my best." Su Bei nodded and promised.
