79 I Miss My Yuji

Victory was right before his eyes.

Dongfang Yangwei could already imagine his head being held high, receiving his first gold medal, and then doing everything he could to humiliate Chen, and in one swoop, capture Lin Xiang's heart.

However…

The beautiful dream was blown away and completely regressed into a bubble, at the blast of wind that passed him by.

This gust of wind was not just any wind!

Chen was flying past; and all the airflow that he had stirred up could also be called exhaust gases, otherwise known as fart.

Right then, Dongfang's position changed from the lead, to eating the fart behind Chen.

The finish line was not far-off – being overtaken at this point was devastating!

Dongfang had already used up all his energy; right now, he could only watch, wide-eyed, as the gap widened.

Just as he was about to cross the finish line, Chen turned his head around on purpose and threw Dongfang a disparaging smile.

"Hey junk, if you want to beat me, you better train for another hundred years!"

With that, Chen broke the ribbon and snatched the one-hundred-meter qualifying race's title.

"Huff…"

Dongfang felt his chest tightening up, his breath was ragged, and his head was spinning – he nearly collapsed on the spot.

His mind was addled, his footsteps were erratic, he staggered about, and fell flat on the track.

"Swish! Swish! Swish…"

Shortly after that, another gust of cold wind swished past him.

One after another, the six other competitors ran past the finish line.

This time, Dongfang made a complete fool out of himself.

Two seconds ago, victory could have been his; then two seconds later, in a flash, he was in the last place.

His entire face contorted up as if he had just eaten a pile of warm shit. Depression had penetrated deep into his heart and liver.

Of course, at that moment, no one cared about him.

Following the announcement of Chen's victory, the entire arena was, once again, boiling over.

"Ten seconds and three milliseconds! A new record! A record has been set!!!"

The excited screams of the announcer could be heard through the speakers.

"Chen has broken the record (for the school's sports day) that he had just set! At the same time, he has also broken Green Vine City's record! And the Province's record! This achievement has met the national level!"

"Let us give Chen Xiaobei a warm congratulation for his achievement! He is our Green Vine University's pride! Let us give him a round of applause! Cheer for him!"

"Boom…"

The arena thundered with triumph.

Chen's classmates, who were on the stands, were even wilder.

They had made Chen their idol – not only did Chen not let them down, he had even made them feel proud!

In one swift moment, the fans that Chen already had grown even more loyal; those who were indifferent towards him joined his fan club, excitedly cheering for him.

"Xiaobei! Congratulations! You are just too great!" Lin ran down from the stands, and was now walking, with a blissful smile on her face, towards Chen.

"How did I do? Me, your MVP, did not embarrass you, right?" Chen grinned eagerly.

"Of course not! I'm so proud of you!" Lin blushed with a hint of shyness, but with more joy than anything.

"Haha, are there be any special rewards?" Chen asked excitedly.

"Special…" Lin was dazed for a moment.

The red on her face deepened. She bit her lip and whispered, "Tonight, my brother will be going out with his friends, why don't you come to my house…"

Damn!

Chen's eyes lit up!

Had this good fortune came too soon?

"Alright! It's settled then. Let's finish what we couldn't last time! Hehehe…" Chen smiled suggestively.

"Do you want to die?! I was going to cook dinner for you! What did you think…" Lin's face was as red a tomato.

Last time… They were this close to doing it.

"I also meant cooking."

Chen threw her a flirtatious look and teased her, "Together, let's turn the raw rice into cooked rice (have sex)!"

"Do you want to die? I don't want to talk to you anymore!" Lin stamped in a huff, turned around and ran back to the stands.

Chen wanted to run after her and tease her more but the four-hundred-meter preliminary heat was about to begin.

"She won't be able to escape me tonight anyway. Let's finish this race first." Chen chuckled and walked towards the registration counter.

The competitions that followed were completely linear after that, with the same winner crossing the line each time.

For the rest of the entire day, Chen competed with ease.

He won the four hundred meters, one thousand meters, three thousand meters in a row… Nine gold medals in total; breaking a couple of records along the way.

Chen's class had the highest cumulative score among other teams. Thus, they were sitting tight in the first place.

What's more, the number of his diehard fans continued to soar.

In the school's forum, Chen's popularity had long surpassed Lan's. He had become the most popular person in school in one fell swoop!

As for Dongfang Yangwei, his confidence was severely destroyed after being taken out in the beginning of the competition.

Out of nine competitions, he only took home three silvers and four bronzes. He didn't even get into top three for the other two competitions.

Thus, their team fell to the middle position.

If they want to surpass Chen's class, Dongfang would need to win all the competitions tomorrow, whereas Chen must not win a single competition.

Obviously, this would be impossible.

At the end of the first day of sports day, the audience fanned out, one by one.

Chen quickly ran back to his hostel and got ready for his date with his beautiful teacher.

Lin didn't want anyone to see them together so she went home first. Chen could only come one hour later.

As he was getting to ready to leave, Xiangyu called.

"What is the matter, my king?" Chen asked.

On the other line came the same sweet crisp voice, but it was accompanied by a hint of despondency, "I want to have a man's body again."

Chen agreed, "Alright. If there's a way to do it, I will surely support you all the way! After all, you did turn into a woman to save my life.

"There is a way to do it, but it's very difficult… Never mind, I was just simply whining." Xiangyu sighed again.

"Bro Yu, what is it with you today? You're not the type to get depressed so easily," Chen asked, concerned.

"Last night, I saw the post in the school forum… About you two-timing. I miss Yuji…" Xiangyu muttered.

Oh…

When he heard this, sweat dripped down Chen's forehead. 

It was one thing for Xiangyu to miss Yuji, but she had actually learned how to access the school's forum without anyone teaching her!

She was adapting to modern society way too rapidly.

What if one day, Xiangyu, again on her own, finds out that the spicy stick in the cafeteria is only five cents per packet…

That scene was just too beautiful, Chen did not dare to think about it!

"Then… My king, please focus on training. When I get back, we'll discuss on how to turn you back into a man. No matter how hard it may be, I'll always be there for you!" Chen said carefully.

"Okay! Good brother. I knew that Bro Bei is the most caring person on earth. You are a real brother. I will continue to train –– in order to transform, I will need to gain much more power! Bye! I'm going to go train now!" Xiangyu hung up the phone when she was finished.

Chen put down his phone, put his palms together and prayed, "Please don't let Xiangyu go to the cafeteria…"
