Chapter 112: Lin Yang and Zhu Baoping Get Into a Fight

The height difference between the two was negligible, allowing them to look each other almost directly in the eye. Wu Yue'er hugged Shen Yan tightly, resting her chin on his shoulder, her legs kicking against the ground as if expressing an irrepressible sense of excitement and joy.

Uh... Shen Yan was bewildered by this series of actions. Both of them were wearing only small white tank tops; Shen Yan could clearly feel her exquisite curves, the soft and warm sensation, and the fresh, pleasant fragrance at the tip of his nose, which couldn't help but set his imagination running wild.

It's just a celebration between teammates, just a celebration.

Shen Yan silently warned himself in his heart to discard any improper thoughts, then gently hugged Wu Yue'er back, savoring the hard-won fruits of victory with her.

"Whoo!"

The crowd present began to jeer, a sense of envy arising spontaneously.

Especially the athletes; it was one thing to lose the race, as the others had won by genuine ability, but with so many people present, a handsome man and a beautiful woman showing off their affection in public like this—how were the others supposed to handle it?

Of course, a few other young couples followed suit, hugging tightly to show encouragement, once again dealing tons of damage to the singletons.

"Damn it! This life is impossible to live!"

One boy with a pompadour hairstyle even threw his water bottle and walked away, cursing.

In the spectator stands, Yu Youwei, who had been cheering, saw this scene, her expression turning uncertain. Luo Qiqi also had a strange look on her face and whispered, "Youwei, Shanni, don't you think Yue'er is very different toward Shen Yan? She has always been cold toward other boys, yet she acts like a brother to Shen Yan. Could it be that she likes him?"

Although she had asked Wu Yue'er this question last time, Yu Youwei just felt uncomfortable in her heart and even suspected that Wu Yue'er was lying to her.

Chen Shanni was slightly stunned, then immediately denied it: "I don't think so. With Yue'er's personality, if she really liked Shen Yan, she would definitely go after him without any hesitation."

"It's just a hug between teammates to celebrate this shocking comeback victory, isn't it?"

Yu Youwei and Luo Qiqi nodded; this explanation barely passed. Given Wu Yue'er's style of doing things, being secretive was indeed contrary to her personality.

However, this was not enough to completely dispel their doubts.

The reason was simple: Wu Yue'er treated Shen Yan too obviously differently.

In fact, it wasn't that Wu Yue'er hadn't thought about going after him without hesitation, but love made her feel humble and cautious. If she messed things up and annoyed Shen Yan, they might not even be able to remain friends, which was not what she wanted.

She was waiting, waiting for the perfect moment to make her move.

This point was something the three love-novices could not comprehend.

Lin Yang also took in this scene, his fists clenched, staring fixedly at the sight of the two embracing.

Zhu Baoping grinned; he had just been mocked by Lin Yang this morning, and he hadn't expected the chance to slap him back to arrive so quickly. He gloated, "Lao Lin, your goddess is throwing herself into Lao Shen's arms. Could it be that..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a fist as large as a sandbag coming straight at him!

The punch came so swiftly that it caught him off guard. With a muffled "thud," the fist hit Zhu Baoping squarely on the side of his face. His body tilted violently, and he staggered to the side.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and the surrounding students were all stunned, completely unaware of what had happened.

"Damn!"

Zhu Baoping touched his aching cheek, then looked at the red, murderous glare in Lin Yang's eyes. Fury surged in his heart, and he flew at Lin Yang, wrestling with him.

Even though Lin Yang was more than half a head taller than Zhu Baoping, his thin frame stood in stark contrast to him.

By comparison, although Zhu Baoping was shorter, as the saying goes: "Concentration is the essence!" Moreover, he exercised persistently every day, which gave him a strong physique and extraordinary strength.

So when the two clashed, Zhu Baoping effortlessly knocked Lin Yang to the ground and gave him a sound beating.

In this lopsided contest, the outcome had long been determined.

"Stop fighting! What are you all looking at? Pull them apart!" Yu Youwei's pupils contracted, and after reacting, she hurriedly told Pang Weijie and the others to go up and break up the fight.

"Oh, oh!" The crowd snapped out of their daze and hurriedly grabbed Zhu Baoping to pull him back. Lin Yang had suffered such a heavy loss that he had already lost his reason, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light as he climbed up, wanting to retaliate.

"You dog! I'll kill you!"

Others hurriedly blocked him.

The teacher maintaining order on the sidelines saw this and hurried over, shouting, "What are you doing! What are you doing! Let's see who dares to make a move again."

It had to be said that this male teacher had a strong deterrent presence, possessing an air of authority that didn't need anger to be felt, and both Lin Yang and Zhu Baoping immediately calmed down.

Zhu Baoping didn't care; apart from the punch he took at the beginning, he had fought almost unscathed. Lin Yang was in a more miserable state, with several bruises on his face and blood at the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with resentment.

Who won and who lost was clear at a glance.

After separating from Wu Yue'er, Shen Yan hugged the other two teammates to celebrate. The girl who ran the second leg, named Ge Hongyan, had red eyes and bowed repeatedly, apologizing: "I'm really sorry, I dragged everyone down."

Shen Yan smiled slightly and only said that they were the champions.

The words were concise, but they were powerful.

Since the result was there, no one else blamed Ge Hongyan.

"Mm!" Ge Hongyan wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously.

This lesson was enough for her to remember for a lifetime; she swore she would never make such a low-level mistake again.

At this moment, the chaotic scene on the viewing platform caught the attention of a few people.

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, just in time to see Lin Yang and Zhu Baoping being pulled apart, followed by the teacher stepping in to shout and stop them.

What's going on? Why did those two start fighting?

However, there was no time to worry about that now; the four members of the team went straight to the podium to receive their honorary medals.

When they returned to the spectator stands, Lin Yang was nowhere to be found, and Zhu Baoping was grinning, gently rubbing his bruised cheek while Tang Song whispered to him on the side.

The classmates were whispering to each other, occasionally glancing toward Zhu Baoping.

Shen Yan sat down next to Zhu Baoping and asked, "Lao Zhu, what's the situation with you and Lao Lin? Why did you suddenly start fighting?"

Zhu Baoping curled his lips and said disdainfully, "Who knows what that guy is going crazy about! I guess he saw you and Wu Yue'er hugging and got angry out of shame, so he took it out on me."
