Chapter 271 : To Our Abstract, Passionate, Yet Beautiful School Sports Meeting

"Is there anyone who participated in an event and didn't get a gold medal? I have three here, do you three want one each? Anyway, for me, there are probably six more to get in Senior Two and Senior Three, but I'm afraid you guys won't have the chance."

Lin Li mocked the "three people," not even sparing Chen Yuying.

So he deserved to be kicked, it was just short of closing the door and releasing Bufan.

Because all the events for Senior One Class 4 had finished, the next thing to do was to wait for the other school events to end before holding the closing ceremony. So after receiving their awards, everyone returned to the class base and started cleaning up early.

Each class had the responsibility to restore their class base after the sports meeting. Not to mention the trash, the desks and chairs also had to be moved back by themselves.

And now that they were cleaning up early, they could go home earlier when the closing ceremony ended.

"Can this kind of glass bottle be used for anything after drinking? It always feels different from plastic bottles, it's a bit of a pity to throw it away."

While cleaning up the drawers, Ding Sihan held a transparent glass bottle in her hand, hesitating whether to throw it into the trash bag, and asked everyone.

It was originally honeysuckle dew, but now the label on the outside had been completely torn off by Ding Sihan when she was bored. It looked very clear and could even be used as a small vase.

"I have an idea for this." Lin Li, whose martial soul was a Dalmatian, looked over.

"Does anyone have a suggestion?" Ding Sihan emphasized the word "anyone."

Haha, isolating Bai Bufan? So mean.

Lin Li pitifully patted Bai Bufan's shoulder, then raised his hand and spoke confidently: "I do, I do! Me, me!"

Ding Sihan, worthy of being a descendant of the deaf, still didn't hear.

Useless thing.

Lin Li sighed, then had to point at Wang Yuezhi: "Wang Yuezhi says he has a suggestion."

Hearing this, Ding Sihan looked at Wang Yuezhi.

Wang Yuezhi: "?"

"Me, what suggestion do I have? I don't have a suggestion." Wang Yuezhi looked confused.

"Formulas can be applied, Yuezhi, don't forget the method I taught you to relieve anxiety," Lin Li reminded in a low voice.

Wang Yuezhi was stunned for a moment, then understood. His mouth twitched as he looked at Ding Sihan: "What Lin Li means is, this glass bottle, if you know how to smoke, you can use it as an ashtray. If you don't know how to smoke, you can learn to smoke first, and then use it as an ashtray."

Ding Sihan: "..."

See, ignoring Lin Li's suggestion was definitely the right choice.

Lin Li is quite reliable, but it's impossible for Lin Li to be reliable.

But Ding Sihan now realized what this glass bottle was useful for. It actually matched Lin Li's head quite well. Smashing it on Lin Li's head would definitely be very poignant and beautiful.

"Hey, don't say it, a glass bottle is indeed very suitable as an ashtray. The size of the honeysuckle dew bottle mouth is also quite suitable for flicking ash," Wang Ze, who was beside them, nodded upon hearing this, and even made a gesture of flicking ash, commenting:

"It's also very convenient to clean and can be reused. Ding Sihan, you really can learn to smoke."

Ding Sihan: "..."

There are quite a few heads suitable for the glass bottle, it's a bit hard to choose.

"No, bro, you really know how?" Lin Li looked at Wang Ze upon hearing this.

"I know how to smoke, but I just know how, I don't like it at all." Wang Ze nodded and then shook his head. "I usually only smoke a bit during the Chinese New Year."

"Why did you learn this? Also for women's panties?" Lin Li was a bit curious.

"What do you mean for women's panties, that's fucking too perverted." Wang Ze didn't understand and was stunned.

"To show off (zhuang bi)."

(Translator's Note: "Zhuang bi" means "to show off", but "bi" is also slang for "pussy/panties").

Wang Ze: "..."

Fuck.

Many people who learn to smoke at a young age don't do it for the so-called pleasure or stress relief. What fucking stress do most people have? It's purely hoping to give others a feeling of being very capable, very worldly, and having experienced a lot.

When being whipped with a belt by their family, they still have to stubbornly say, "You'll understand when you reach my age."

Wang Ze definitely wasn't addicted. In fact, Lin Li and the others had never seen him smoke, nor had they ever smelled smoke on him.

"I'm not that bored, my dad taught me to smoke," Wang Ze shook his head.

"Your dad taught you to smoke?" Bai Bufan, who was equally curious beside them, was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

The Wang family has some tricks.

"Yeah, when I was a kid setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, I kept asking him for a lighter. He got annoyed and lit a cigarette for me. I asked him what to do if it went out, and he said if it's about to go out, I just take a puff," Wang Ze nodded. "And then I learned. I occasionally have one when setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, but I don't touch them at all normally."

Lin Li, Bai Bufan: "(；☉_☉)?"

Filial piety in the opposite direction.

This was indeed the first time Lin Li had heard of learning to smoke this way.

Did Wang Ze's dad really not get whipped into the air by his grandpa?

"Then we really have to be careful if we meet Wang Ze during the Chinese New Year. This kid might really burn my butt with a cigarette butt," Bai Bufan said warily.

"It's just a matter of convenience, I can even burn your Barrett," Wang Ze waved his hand politely, a small effort not worth mentioning.

"I thought it was other sports students who led you to it," Lin Li clicked his tongue. "I didn't expect it to be this way, awesome."

"Sports students do smoke quite a lot, it was very serious in junior high, and there are some in Nansang now too. A few seniors are a bit addicted and often smoke in the dorm or toilet," Wang Ze nodded, then couldn't stop smiling, winking and saying:

"Let me tell you guys, there's a Senior Three senior. Once, he was secretly smoking with someone in the toilet, and the grade director suddenly burst in.

"But the grade director didn't see exactly who was smoking. Seeing that no one admitted it, he told everyone to squat down and smelled their fingers one by one to see whose smoke smell was the strongest.

"And at this very moment, a genius idea flashed through my senior's mind. So, taking advantage of the director not paying attention, he secretly picked his own asshole.

"—He said he still can't forget the hideous and terrifying expression on the grade director's face when he picked up his hand."

Lin Li, Bai Bufan: "(；☉_☉)?"

The crime doesn't warrant this.

Treating the grade director like Wang Yuhui?

It seems sports students not only have good skills, but also a lot of tricks.

While continuing to listen to Wang Ze tell the gossip he knew about sports students, and cleaning up the not-so-much trash, the sundries in the class base were quickly cleaned up.

The rest was to move the desks and chairs back to the art building.

This time Xue Jian didn't need to conscript people either. The boys were very proactive, moving back whatever they brought.

There was no need to go to the toilet to pour out the water under the sun umbrella, Lin Li just considered it watering the lawn here.

Mainly because Baowei refused to drink it, this child was getting pickier and pickier.

"Thank you, China Mobile, you sun-blocking thing." After pouring out the water and putting away the sun umbrella, Lin Li said thank you to the advertisement on it.

"Hey, Lin Li, you say it's understandable for these things to advertise, they're commonly used in daily life. Look at that sun umbrella for Senior Three Class 11, the advertisement on it is actually for Rolex. Who is this kind of advertisement for?

"For the school leaders? It can't be for us poor bros, right?"

Wang Ze, carrying a desk and chair towards the art building, looked at the sun umbrellas of other classes around and asked curiously.

"Idiot, advertisements for luxury goods are used to eradicate illiteracy. They have to let everyone know this thing is very expensive, otherwise when rich people wear it out, how would you know it's a good thing, and how could poor people provide emotional value to rich people?" Lin Li sneered upon hearing this.

"Oh! Fuck! Makes sense!" Wang Ze suddenly realized and instantly understood.

That's great, poor people are finally useful.

"It's so good to be rich~" Wang Ze then sighed.

"The poor also have their way of living. Wang Ze, haven't you heard? The poor play with cars, the rich play with watches. If you have no money, just play with your bird, jerk off on the bed when you have nothing to do, every second of comfort counts," Lin Li comforted in a low voice.

Wang Ze: "..."

That is very comfortable.

"Speaking of luxury goods, do you know the world's top three famous watches?" Bai Bufan, who had been listening on the side, asked at this time.

"You tell us." Lin Li and Wang Ze looked over.

"Richard Mille, 6.888 million yuan; Patek Philippe, 888,000 yuan," Bai Bufan paused, and continued unpredictably, "Jiangxi Laobiao (Jiangxi bro), 388,000 yuan."

(Translator's Note: "Biao" means both "watch" and "cousin/bro". Jiangxi is known for high bride prices).

"Did something strange mix in?"

Lin Li and Wang Ze really thought Bai Bufan was sharing serious knowledge at first, but it turned out he was just making dumplings for the sake of vinegar, so they laughed and cursed.

"Don't laugh, you guys probably don't know, the record holder for the most exaggerated bride price in history is the Eastern Jin Emperor Sima Rui marrying a Jiangxi woman. At that time, the woman's family asked for Jingzhou and Jiaozhou!

"I ask you, can Jiangxi Laobiao be considered a famous watch?" Bai Bufan continued to popularize science.

Wang Ze, Lin Li: "..."

Haji Xi, asking for two provinces directly as bride price? It's really pitiful for the local bros living in Haji Xi, what kind of life are they living.

...

"Lin Li, no activities this weekend, right? My dad just asked me if I'm going home this week. If there are no activities, I'll have my dad drive over to pick me up and I won't stay at school," Bai Bufan asked on the way back from the art building.

"I'm going for a full body checkup. If you want to go together, stay at school. I can still cover the cost," Lin Li looked at Bai Bufan upon hearing this and said indifferently.

"Go for a checkup?" Bai Bufan frowned.

This form of entertainment was a bit too niche.

"Yes, again, don't worry about the money. You know, I'm a newly rich bro. And who says going for a checkup is a good deal? Some people spend two hundred yuan and find six diseases, the cost-performance ratio is maxed out. Are you really not going?" Lin Li smiled and tempted.

Bai Bufan: "..."

"What the fuck kind of cost-performance ratio is this!?"

"So are you going or not? Even if you want to go, I still have to see if I can book it for you tomorrow. If I can't, you should just roll back home." Because the package was expensive, Lin Li actually had a dedicated customer service representative from the medical examination institution, and the reply wouldn't be slow.

Bai Bufan scratched his head, thought for a while, and nodded: "Then ask. I have nothing to do when I go back anyway. It's a good time to test my physical health and see if I need to adjust my jerking off frequency."

"Okay."

"Asked, it's possible." The dedicated customer service replied very quickly, and Lin Li looked up and said.

"Okay, then I'll stay at school." Bai Bufan also nodded very decisively, took out his phone, probably to send a message to his family saying they didn't need to come.

When Lin Li and the others dawdled back, the last event of the sports meeting, the Senior Three women's relay race, had also ended. The starting platform and podium on the field had all been removed, and the "Athletes' March" sounded again from the broadcast.

The closing ceremony began.

"Old Jian is here, we have to line up, go line up." As the sports committee member, Wang Ze saw this and jogged towards the place where the classmates were gathered, starting to line them up.

"It's only 3:30 PM now, but the dismissal time notified in the parent group is 5:00. Fuck, I already foresee that the closing ceremony will also be extremely boring." After lining up, Bai Bufan sighed.

Because playing with phones was also not allowed during the closing ceremony.

"It's fine, you have me," Lin Li handsomely stroked his hair. "I can entertain you."

"Lin Li, you stand at the very front of the class line." Xue Jian's voice suddenly appeared. "Bufan, your position remains unchanged."

Lin Li: "..."

Turning his head, he saw Xue Jian walking straight over after seeing Lin Li and Bai Bufan appear.

"Teacher, a general in the field is not bound by the orders from his sovereign... I accept!" Just as he said a few words, seeing that Xue Jian seemed about to physically punish a student, Lin Li could only walk dejectedly to the front of the line.

Looking back three times with every step, he left amidst Bai Bufan's heartbroken gaze.

Why are there always people in this world who want to tear lovers apart?

Taking advantage of the fact that they could still play with their phones, the two had their final communication.

[Bai Bufan: Hateful Xue Jian, actually tearing us apart.]

[Lin Li: Indeed.]

"Class Rep, why are you also in the first row?" When Lin Li walked to the first row and found that besides the eyesore Wang Ze, there was actually the eye-pleasing Chen Yuying, negative and negative making positive, he asked in surprise.

"Because I have to go up and receive an award later," Chen Yuying responded. "Why did you come up?"

"According to risk..." Lin Li cleared his throat, preparing to cast a spell.

"I know, you stand next to me," Chen Yuying smiled, put an index finger to her lips and made a "shh" sound, then moved aside a bit.

Xue Jian is the best homeroom teacher in the whole world!

No one is allowed to hate Xue Jian!

[Lin Li recalled a message.]

[Lin Li: Bai Bufan, pay attention. If you dare say another bad word about Old Jian, I'll beat the shit out of you and won't let you eat it!]

[Bai Bufan: ?]

"Teacher, I respect and love you the most."

Walking to the very front, preparing to signal everyone that they could go, Xue Jian, who was suddenly praised vigorously by Lin Li: "?"

"Don't try to get close, behave yourself!"

...

"In this beautiful season of crisp autumn air and abundant fruits, the 51st Campus Sports Meeting of Nansang Middle School has come to a successful conclusion. Here, on behalf of the school, I would like to extend my most sincere thanks and warmest congratulations to all participating athletes, referees, staff, and all teachers and students..."

Familiar location, familiar row of school leaders, familiar closing speech.

Bored to death, Wang Ze, holding the class sign, yawned.

And he didn't know if it was an illusion, but Xue Jian and the Senior One grade director, one on the left of the line and one on the right, seemed to be staring right at Senior One Class 4.

He didn't know who they were guarding against.

"Hey, Lin Li..." Taking advantage of the brief gap when the teachers were slightly further away, Wang Ze turned his head, planning to find his bro to pass the time.

He saw the two people behind him both lowering their heads at this moment, with smiles on their faces.

What are they laughing at? Wang Ze's gaze looked over curiously.

The tip of Chen Yuying's sports shoe quietly poked out a step, accurately stepping on the head of Lin Li's elongated shadow. Lin Li then slightly exaggeratedly shook his shoulders and turned sideways slightly, and the shadow on the ground slid away half an inch.

Chen Yuying suppressed her smile and pursued relentlessly. The sunlight passed through the ponytail she raised when she shook her head, weaving the shadow of her hair into a fine net, covering the shoulder of Lin Li's swaying shadow, as if leaning on it.

Back and forth like this.

Wang Ze: "..."

And hearing Wang Ze's voice, both of them looked up at Wang Ze.

"Mhm? What's wrong?" Lin Li asked in confusion.

What's wrong?

You're still asking what's wrong?

I'm eating lemons!

Lin Li, I'm really eating fucking lemons!

What the hell are you two playing with a broken shadow!

"I'm bored," Wang Ze gritted his teeth and answered honestly.

"What does that have to do with me?" Lin Li asked even more confusedly. "I'm not bored."

"Then you're this, never mind, you guys continue." Wang Ze maintained a polite smile, gave a thumbs up, then nodded, turned around, and faced forward.

I shouldn't be in the car, I should be under the car. 

(Translator's Note: Lyrics from A-do's song "He Must Love You Very Much").

Lin Li turned his head, but Chen Yuying had already slightly turned her body sideways, her hands crossed behind her back, apparently not playing anymore.

Lin Li just smiled faintly and patted Wang Ze's shoulder: "Wang Ze, bored, right?"

"Mhm."

"Then let me tell you a story to pass the time?" Lin Li said.

"Great, is it time to eat shit again! Tell me, what shit are you planning to make me eat this time?" Wang Ze nodded vigorously, rubbing his hands expectantly and asking.

Yay! Time to eat shit!

"This story can be considered using scenery to express emotion, using objects to represent people. Class Rep, don't eavesdrop, this story isn't suitable for you." After exhorting Chen Yuying first, Lin Li smiled and told the story to Wang Ze in detail:

"One day, the Sun called the Grass.

"Sun: Hello, are you Grass? I am Sun.

(Translator's Note: "Cao" (grass) is a homophone for "fuck", "Ri" (sun) is a homophone for "fuck").

"Grass: Fuck, who are you?

"Sun: I am Sun.

"Grass: Fuck, who exactly are you?

"Sun: I am Sun, are you Grass?

"Grass: Fucking hell, who exactly are you, fuck.

"Sun: Fuck, I am Sun!

"The Sun's mom grabbed the phone at this time. Wang Ze, do you know what the Sun's mom said?

"She said: Fuck, I fuck his mom, fuck your mom, okay?"

Wang Ze: "(；☉_☉)?"

Three seconds later, laughter poured out. Wang Ze used the class sign as a support point, lay on it, and started laughing until he twitched.

It wasn't that this story was so funny, but associating it with Lin Li saying at the beginning of the story that it was using objects to represent people, Wang Ze realized that this bastard Lin Li telling this story was purely to scold him for disturbing his mood, and suddenly felt it was hilarious.

Look, anxious again.

Young people are still too impatient.

"Now, will the classes whose names are called please send representatives to the stage to receive their awards. Senior One Class 4, Senior One Class 7..."

It was already time for the award ceremony. Chen Yuying patted her cheeks with both hands to suppress her smile, and walked briskly towards the rostrum.

Wang Ze then turned his head, suddenly put his hands behind his back, raised his heels, moved softly, stepped on Lin Li's shadow coyly with the tip of his shoe, and gave him a shy look.

Lin Li: "?"

After stepping a few times and seeing Lin Li had no reaction, Wang Ze raised his head, his eyes innocent and even carrying a bit of purity, and said in a pinched voice: "Brother Lin Li, aren't you going to dodge~"

Lin Li: "..."

However much Bai Bufan disgusted Wang Ze, Wang Ze now disgusted Lin Li just as much.

Lin Li crossed his arms, looked at Wang Ze, and sneered, "Where did this retard come from? Roll aside and play."

"Hahaha—" Wang Ze laughed loudly.

This laughter was very loud, and Xue Jian and Zhao Hai were attracted over again.

And at the end of the class line, Bai Bufan, who was bored to death, was so anxious he was about to jump over the wall.

What are you laughing at, what are you laughing at, bring me along!

Old Jian! I hate you!

...

"Finally, let us once again congratulate all the winning groups and individuals with warm applause! Let us also look forward together to even more wonderful performances at next year's school sports meeting!

"Now I announce—the 51st Campus Sports Meeting of Nansang Middle School, has come to a successful—close!"

With the principal's high-pitched and elongated voice, two more salutes with colored smoke trails soared into the sky from both sides of the rostrum, and the field resounded with sky-filling applause.

The sports meeting was over.
