Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Why should Lu Mingfei be executed? (Chapter 625)

The referee didn't let Lu Mingfei try again; instead, he let the female student who had just been doing the pole vault do it again.

Although Lu Mingfei himself wouldn't mind doing it again, seeing that Xiaotiannv's face was already as red as an apple after the kiss, he figured that if he let Xiaotiannv kiss him again, his girlfriend would probably really crash on the spot.

Okay, that's enough for today... We'll continue adjusting next time!
However, looking at the boys surrounding him, all of them were glaring at him with bloodshot eyes and furious expressions.

Lu Mingfei estimated that the fact that the little girl took the initiative to kiss him at the sports meet today would probably be a topic of gossip on the Shilan Middle School forum for a long time to come.

...Let's talk then! He's not as thin-skinned as Little Fairy, and he's used to being stared at like that with such hatred.

Besides, what business is it of anyone else if he's showing affection to his girlfriend? If you're so envious and jealous, why don't you go and date a campus beauty yourself!

He'll have to go to other schools now, since he's already won over all the school beauties at Shilan Middle School.

Wait, there's one more...

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered that there was a hidden school beauty, Lin Huihui, in the class next door... Damn it! The name Lin Huihui has been appearing a lot more often lately!
……

After the previous pole vaulter successfully cleared the designated height on her second jump, Erii changed into her track and field uniform and came out of the athletes' tunnel.

It has to be said that pretty girls look good in anything. Erii, who usually prefers shrine maiden outfits and Mori-style clothing, looks like a sunny girl when she changes into sportswear. Her somewhat striking red hair is tied into a high ponytail at the back of her head, making her look even more sporty. She looks exactly like a kendo girl who stepped out of an anime.

The girl's fair and healthy calves appeared slender and long beneath the mid-length trousers that just reached above her knees.

Lu Mingfei then remembered that Erii was actually a little taller than the Little Fairy, standing at 172cm, almost as tall as Mai Shutoku. It was just that her usually well-behaved and introverted personality always made people think of her as a cute and petite soft girl.

Erii's appearance immediately drew the attention of the surrounding onlookers. After all, the people gathered near the pole vaulting arena were there because of Erii's reputation. Although they had heard that a beautiful transfer student had arrived at the school, Erii herself didn't like to leave the classroom, so not many people had actually seen her in person.

However, after seeing Erii appear in a tracksuit, everyone realized that the rumors were indeed true. The new transfer student was definitely a campus beauty, and in terms of looks alone, she even slightly surpassed Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen.

They say beauty is pleasing to the eye, and seeing a beautiful girl certainly lifted everyone's spirits.

Before the sadness of being blinded by Su Xiaoqiang's kiss on Lu Mingfei could be completely dispelled, everyone saw the red-haired beauty Erii look around outside the contestant passage, then smile and happily run up to Lu Mingfei.

"Is it good-looking?" Erii took out her phone and typed a question to Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei noticed the expectation in Erii's eyes, patted her head, and answered truthfully, "It looks good, it suits Erii very well."

No one knew what had happened, but they saw Erii run up to Lu Mingfei, and a few seconds later, Lu Mingfei reached out and patted Erii's head.

The latter closed her eyes like a cat, letting Lu Mingfei stroke her.

Everyone looked somewhat bewildered. Although they had heard rumors that the new transfer student and Lu Mingfei had a close relationship, they felt that this intimate contact went beyond the realm of "close."

It was one thing for Lu Mingfei to shamelessly kiss Su Xiaoqiang right in front of Liu Miaomiao. After all, Liu Miaomiao was his ex-girlfriend, so there seemed to be no reason to criticize their relationship. But now, his current girlfriend is right there! What kind of behavior is it to touch another girl's head in front of her?
What shocked everyone even more was that Su Xiaoqiang not only had no intention of interfering with Lu Mingfei, but even watched with a smile as her boyfriend interacted intimately with another girl.

"..."

So what are they here to see?

Do you want to see Lu Shenren openly showing off his harem?

Lu Mingfei didn't know why, as soon as Erii came out of the player's tunnel, most of the crowd gathered on the sidelines dispersed. But that was fine, he was already annoyed by too many third wheels anyway.

After the previous contestants had finished their performances, it was Erii's turn to perform. Currently, the highest score was achieved by a second-year high school girl named Li Xiaoxi.

Lu Mingfei had seen this girl before. A while ago, Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao would come to the track and field club to practice running after school, and Lu Mingfei would come with them every day. Li Xiaoxi would practice pole vaulting nearby. They would always practice together until dark before going home.

"Senior Sister Li is the vice president of the track and field club at Shilan Middle School."

Chen Wenwen, who has a good relationship with the track and field club members, quietly explained: "She is not only a sports specialist in pole vaulting, but she was also a first-class athlete in this event in her first year of high school. The school teachers unanimously believe that she has the opportunity to become a national master in pole vaulting before graduating from high school."

"That's amazing?" Lu Mingfei stroked his chin.

Even disregarding those exceptionally gifted mixed-race athletes, a first-year high school student at the first-level athlete level already possesses remarkably impressive physical talent among ordinary people. Keep in mind that many provincial team coaches in various sports are only at the first-level athlete level. This level is more than qualified to participate in international youth competitions.

"Yes, Senior Sister Li is very capable."

Chen Wenwen nodded and said, "The height she just successfully challenged is 3.50 meters in pole vaulting. This height is the highest record in the Shilan Middle School Pole Vaulting Games, and it is also the record she set herself last year."

Lu Mingfei didn't know what a height of 3.50m meant. After all, for hybrids of A grade or above, a height of three meters was just a matter of jumping with a little effort.

However, after seeing that the other athletes' results were generally in the 2m range, with the best being just over 3m, Lu Mingfei realized that 3.50m was indeed a rather exaggerated result.

However, according to Chen Wenwen, 3.50m was just a record she set at the school sports meet last year. This senior student, Li, has improved her pole vaulting technique a lot this year, because 3.50m should be far from her limit for her; it should be a relatively easy result for her.

How come he remembered that Li Xiaoxi seemed to have hit the bar during her first jump?

……

In the players' rest area, Li Xiaoxi secretly glanced at Lu Mingfei.

Just as Lu Mingfei had thought, 3.50m wasn't difficult for her; it was merely the entry-level score for a first-class pole vaulter. Her usual training results were already around 3.85m, so the difficulty of 3.50m was about the same as Liu Xiang taking a walk on the track downstairs in his neighborhood.

Just now, as she was preparing for the pole vault, her attention was suddenly drawn to a commotion around her. She saw that all the onlookers were staring towards the family and friends section. She was wondering what was happening there when she turned around and saw Lu Mingfei embracing Su Xiaoqiang. The next moment, her heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Lu Mingfei always complained that Chu Zihang was destined to be surrounded by countless romantic encounters, yet he was oblivious to it all. He was like those stone statues gazing out to sea on Easter Island; any romantic attention he received was wasted. Little did he know, he himself was much the same.

Often, the reason someone might not notice a romantic interest isn't because they're oblivious, but simply because they have no connection with the girl who secretly admires them and are unaware of her.

Even now, Lu Mingfei, who is already on the same level as Chu Zihang, has not realized that he has actually done something similar to Chu Zihang.

Why did he become the true hidden number one on the "List of Those Who Should Be Killed"? Even a meteor-like powerhouse like Chu Zihang could only be pushed off the top spot and placed second by him.

The fact that he had successfully pursued two of the school's most beautiful girls, Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang, was only one of the reasons. Although there was a heated discussion about school beauties and handsome boys on the Shilan Middle School forum, the pursuit of beauty is a natural human instinct.

However, for most people, the school beauty is just someone far away. Of course, she is very beautiful, excellent, and perfect, but many people also have a clear understanding of themselves and know that such a girl is probably not someone they have much of a connection with.

They only admired the school beauties. It was certainly enviable that the famous loser Lu Mingfei could win their hearts, but that envy and jealousy would pass quickly.

Most boys' preferred or desired girlfriends are not those unattainable beauties, but rather someone else entirely.

Why do we say Lu Mingfei deserves to be killed? Imagine if most of the boys at Shilan Middle School who wanted to date girls in their class, club, or grade all realized that the same person had already invaded the heart of the girl next door they liked... It would be strange if they didn't want to eliminate him!
Lu Mingfei was unaware that he had done the same thing as Chu Zihang… that is, he taught many girls at Shilan Middle School, including Li Xiaoxi, one thing: “unrequited love.” However, Lu Mingfei didn't realize his talent in this area, nor did he realize that those who could become popular male hosts in Takamagahara were no ordinary people.

Li Xiaoxi pretended to wipe her sweat as if no one was around, but kept glancing casually in Lu Mingfei's direction.

She knew that Lu Mingfei was Liu Miaomiao's ex-boyfriend, Su Xiaoqiang's current boyfriend, and also had a good relationship with Chen Wenwen. Before, when the three girls came to the track and field club to practice the 800-meter race, Lu Mingfei would come to accompany them every afternoon. That's why she also practiced late every night and walked home with Chen Wenwen and the others. This way, she could walk a stretch of road with Lu Mingfei.

If Li Xiaoxi didn't know who Lu Mingfei's girlfriend was, just by looking at Lu Mingfei's interactions with the girls, she really wouldn't be able to tell who Lu Mingfei's girlfriend was... Lu Mingfei also didn't try to hide anything from Su Xiaoqiang.

Even in front of Su Xiaoqiang, he would wipe Chen Wenwen's sweat and share a bottle of mineral water with Liu Miaomiao. It felt like all three of them were dating Lu Mingfei.

Even now, with Su Xiaoqiang right next to him, Lu Mingfei is patting the head of the red-haired junior sister without any hesitation.

"Is he also very familiar with that junior sister?" Li Xiaoxi wondered to herself.

Just then, the referee announced, "Eri Uesugi, you may enter the arena and begin your preparations."

Erii typed with her head down, looking like she was reluctant to let Lu Mingfei go: "Sakura, I have to go in."

"Okay, Erii, go ahead."

Lu Mingfei withdrew his hand and instructed, "Remember what I told you before: just have fun at the sports meet, don't try to achieve anything too outrageous. Take a look at the results of the other students."

Erii nodded obediently, waved, and ran towards the preparation area of ​​the venue.

The referee glanced at the score sheet in his hand, frowned, and looked up at the pretty red-haired girl in front of him: "Wait a minute, didn't you declare your initial height beforehand?"

Erii tilted her head, looking puzzled. Then she took out her phone and typed, "I'm sorry, teacher, I didn't know I needed to declare my altitude in advance."

In competitions like pole vaulting, athletes need to inform the event organizers in advance about the height they intend to attempt. This is because the pole vault bar needs to be set up beforehand.

However, this was just a school sports meet, and the referee had heard about Uesugi Erii and knew that she was unable to speak due to illness... In addition, she was a foreign student, so it was normal that she didn't know many things.

Middle school teachers generally prefer pretty and well-behaved students, and knowing that this student had some physical issues, they thought for a moment before saying, "Hmm, it's okay to decide now. I'll talk to the other teachers. How high do you plan to start jumping?"

Erii looked up when she heard this, her clear eyes glancing left and right. She saw the record board standing by the track and field, which was updating the athletes' results in real time. Her gaze fell on the one currently in first place.

"Li Xiaoxi: 3.50m".

She tilted her head, thinking about what Lu Mingfei had just said.

"Take a look at the achievements of other students... the grades can't be too outrageous..."

The naive Erii pondered seriously, unsure of what kind of achievement wouldn't be considered exaggerated.

I was just thinking that since other classmates had already jumped to a height of 3.50m, it shouldn't be too outrageous for me to choose a similar height.
The red-haired girl thought about it carefully, decided on the height she wanted to challenge, quickly tapped the phone buttons with her slender, fair fingers, and then turned the screen towards the referee teacher.

The text clearly reads: "Teacher, I've made up my mind. I want to challenge myself to run 3.51m."

Referee: "...???"

Erii was thinking: since the highest jump is 3.50, then if she jumps 3.51, it will only be a little bit higher than the highest. Considering the scores of her classmates, jumping 1cm higher shouldn't be too exaggerated.

As for why she's 1cm taller and not 1cm shorter... that's because Erii wants to win. She's always been number one in games since she was little, even when playing Street Fighter with Genji, she never holds back. This is her first time participating in the school sports meet, and she wants to win first place again.

The internet-addicted girl's damn competitive spirit.

However, the judges were somewhat stumped by Erii's proposed height.

3.51m? That's the current pole vault record at the school sports meet!

Jumping so high from the starting height... are you serious?
