Marriage as a Game

Chapter 54: Teacher Shang is Actually a Nice Person

He did not go any further, but lit a cigarette and leaned against the glossy white painted wall beside the door, puffing out smoke while listening to the voices of teachers and students talking in the classroom.

"Oh my! Student Shen, your solution is amazing! I have been teaching for so many years and I have never thought about it in this way! It's really... Tsk tsk! Let me ask, was this solution taught by your teacher before, or did you figure it out by yourself?"

"Teacher, it was taught by Teacher Shang."

Old Man Sui paused for a few seconds and confirmed again.

"Shang? Shang Jianghan?"

"Yeah." The girl replied warmly.

Then came Old Man Sui’s highly recognizable haha.

"It's normal if this kid taught this! After all, he doesn't follow the ordinary path!

But, with his cold personality, would he teach you? It's unbelievable!"

Shen Chaoxi wiped the blackboard clean and prepared to return to her seat. The first thing she smelled was a faint scent of tobacco. Her dark eyes moved and she soon spotted the silhouette at the back door.

The shadow only showed the upper half of his body, lying diagonally on the marble floor. The profile of his face was clear, and even the thread of smoke rising from the corner of his mouth was faintly visible.

At this time, Old Man Sui asked again: "Student Shen, tell the teacher how you consulted your teacher Shang?"

Shen Chaoxi felt that this question was about to hit him.

"Well... Teacher Shang is actually a very nice and easy-going person." In order to convince Old Man Sui, Shen Chaoxi added, "He is handsome and many girls like him. If he doesn't keep cool, he might not be able to walk!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a shadow at the door sway a few times and then disappeared.

Shen Chaoxi waited for more than ten seconds until the smell of tobacco disappeared. Then she walked to the back door and looked towards the corridor. She just saw the tall figure turning and going down the stairs from the other side of the corridor.

**
The sports meet lasts three days. The first two and a half days are for competitions in various events, and the final afternoon is for the 10,000-meter long-distance race and the award ceremony and closing ceremony.

I don’t know if it’s because the first and second year students are too strong, or if the third year students are not interested in participating in the competition, but the results of the third year students in the first two days were not ideal.

Most of the awards were taken by freshmen and sophomores.

"Shit! I jumped two meters, two meters! I thought I was in first place, but a guy named Gao Fan, with long legs that looked like they were two meters long, jumped with two loud noises and jumped over two meters and two hundred meters! Later I found out that he was a freshman in high school!"

After lunch, several boys gathered in the classroom to talk about the competition.

"There's also the 110-meter hurdles. Man, I'm known as the Little Liu Xiang. The sports team came to me three times but I didn't show up. This time I wanted to show off my skills, but I ended up getting third place! And I'm the only one in our class to win a prize!"

Not only boys complain about this kind of thing, but girls also agree with it.

"We were in the 4x100m relay. In previous years, we didn't run as fast as we did this year. We ended up last in the group. It's so damn embarrassing!"

At this time, a girl said something.

"Will our class still participate in the 10,000-meter race this afternoon? Let's see if we can save some face."

This is the last competitive event before graduation, I can’t lose so badly that I’m not even left with anything!

"Yes, yes! Have you read the forum? Today, the first place winner of the 10,000-meter race, Mr. Shang personally presented the award and took a photo with us!"

"real or fake?"

Some people started looking through their phones.

"Oh! Really? When did Teacher Shang become so boring?" a girl said with disdain.

Fu Haitao made a gesture to keep quiet.

"I actually know a little bit about this. In previous years, not many people were interested in the 10,000-meter race. This year, it was even worse. Only about 20 people signed up. If there are some who can't make it, then what's the point of the race?

Later, I don’t know who came up with this idea, using our Third Young Master Shang as a gimmick, and look, as of now, 100 people have signed up! "

Some girls complained: "Class monitor, why didn't you tell me about this good thing? I will crawl to the finish line even if I have to!"

Mr. Shang! The idol in their class!
It’s been my lifelong dream to take a photo with this prince. I have no regrets in this life!
Fu Haitao was speechless. He said, "I just found out too! The registration has already been completed before I even had time to say anything!" Then someone else asked, "Who in our class got a spot?"

Fu Haitao: "Shen Chaoxi. But she didn't just grab the spot, she signed up long ago!"

Yu Nan said sarcastically, "Who knows if it was foresight?"

"Shen Chaoxi is not the person you think she is. On the day she signed up, she said she was going for the prize money."

Although Fu Haitao did not think that Shen Chaoxi would achieve this great goal, he still did not want people to misunderstand her.

"But in the 10,000-meter race, when men and women are mixed, girls never have an advantage. It's just that participation is what matters."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the playground stands were crowded with people.

Almost all students from the first to third year of high school came out in full force.

They don't come to watch the boring 10,000-meter long-distance race, but to wait for the final result and the tempting reward.

The long-distance race officially started at 2:30, and at 2:15 the participating students were already preparing at the starting line.

Most of the boys on the playground were wearing black sportswear, and a few seeded players even wore vests and shorts.

The few dozen girls were mainly wearing red, white and gray sportswear with their competition numbers on the back.

Shen Chaoxi was among these one hundred teams.

She was wearing a white sportswear today and had her hair tied up in a ponytail. Her skin was white and shiny under the light, and she could be seen at a glance in the crowd.

Zhongli used her internal connections to serve as the referee inside the track circle. She was wearing a mask and a baseball cap, and was talking to Shen Chaoxi.

"If you can't hold on any longer, come down. I've borrowed two stools. We can sit inside and watch them run!"

Shen Chaoxi twisted his ankles to warm up before running, "No need, remember to cheer for me later!"

"Hey! Stop it. I was coughing a little last night. You really took it seriously! It's not just a competition. If you lose the prize money, I'll give it to you!"

Shen Chaoxi shook his waist left and right, stretched his wrists, and glared at her.

She is disrespectful and always calls herself the older sister, but in fact she is half a year younger than her.

"Can that be the same?"

"Why is it different?"

"What you give is called gift or charity, what I win back by myself is real ability!"

The whistle at the starting line sounded, reminding the athletes to begin their final preparations.

Shen Chaoxi was standing at the back and had been squeezed to the last row.

She didn't care at all.

Zhongli was signaled by the referee to step back and leave the track, and she gave some instructions before leaving.

"Don't hold on if you can't hold on, but I'm still rooting for you. Don't be the last one!"

She then retreated to the inner circle referee area.

At this time, another boy named Li Bing from Class 9 who was participating in the 10,000-meter long-distance race was standing in the front row. He waved at Shen Chaoxi, motioning her to go forward.

The order of starting can sometimes affect the final result.

Shen Chaoxi shook his head and refused.

At 2:30, with the sound of a gunshot, one hundred contestants rushed out of the starting line like a swarm of bees from a nest, circling on the green track like a unique landscape.
