"..."
Originally, Old Lady Lin was watching the game with her eyes squinting, her eyes drooping, and she looked listless. But now, the momentum of her voice suddenly increased and her eyes became bright.
Then he yawned and resumed his previous ease.
The brief exposure of the edge is enough to make people frightened.
A drop of sweat flowed down the principal's neatly combed temples.
Sure enough, it’s not easy to be a lobbyist!
He regretted it a little.
Regarding the nature of Delin Middle School, Mrs. Lin’s views are fundamentally different from those of other school directors.
Other school directors hope that Delin Middle School can increase its profits and get more money, but Mrs. Lin just wants to maintain the status quo.
Moreover, the reason she cited was so legitimate that the principal had no way of refutation.
Hey……
Just when the principal was a little confused and didn't know what to say next, Old Mrs. Lin suddenly noticed the situation of the archery competition and her expression changed.
At this moment, Lin Xiangling just shot an arrow, a beautiful nine rings.
"That child." Old Lady Lin pointed to the field. "Which class is he from? What's his name?"
"Uh, who are you referring to?"
"number 20."
The archery competition in the school sports meet adopted a relatively simplified competition system.
Delin and Provincial Experimental School sent 8 players, 8 men and 16 women respectively, for a total of 32 players.
Only two rounds are conducted.
The first round uses an 18-meter indoor target, with 3 arrows per round and 10 rounds as a round.
After this round, the 16 people with the worst results were eliminated, and the remaining 16 people participated in the second round. It was still 3x10, a total of 30 arrows, and the target was changed to a 25-meter target.
The first round is just halfway through, and the girl No. 20 named by Mrs. Lin is ranked second after 17 arrows, almost without any gap from the first place, according to the scoreboard.
The first place is a boy from the Provincial Experimental School. He has well-developed muscles and looks like a sports student.
"What an amazing girl..." The principal couldn't help but sigh, and quickly asked his assistant to retrieve the student's information.
Not long after, the information was brought in, and the content was beyond the principal's expectations. This girl was a transfer student in the second year of high school and the top scorer in the joint entrance examination of seven schools last summer.
Noticing a hint of surprise in Mrs. Lin's eyes, the principal understood what she meant and immediately praised: "What a good child, both civil and military."
Old Mrs. Lin didn't say anything, but just secretly wrote down her name.
This girl, with her crooked and seemingly unscientific archery skills, has a bit of Mr. Lin's charm.
What a coincidence.
……
After the first round, the results came out, with 8 people from Delin advancing and 8 people from Provincial Experimental School advancing.
In the final award ceremony, in addition to individual awards, the sum of the scores of the two schools' contestants after two rounds will be compared to determine which side is the better team.
Last year, Xu Jingyi missed the individual championship by two points and also lost in the team event.
This time, the Kyudo Club brought out its secret weapon, Lin Xiangling, which really opened the eyes of the students watching the game.
With his small body, he can bend the bow and draw the arrow effortlessly.
His score in the first round was the same as that of the muscular man from the provincial experimental school, and he tied for first place.
This is really rare, considering that the slender female elf archers in literary works are just magical creatures in fantasy.
Lin Xiangling's image is very inconsistent when put together with her fighting ability.
Many students were suddenly awakened to the fact that this seemingly petite and cute transfer student turned out to be a hidden boss!
With this kind of power, I'm afraid that if I punch someone in the chest with my small fist, it will make them bleed.
Who doesn’t like a beautiful girl who is also good at fighting?
Gradually, many voices began to cheer for Lin Xiangling.
Boys generally shout shyly.
The girls were much more open, and a few of the more passionate and unrestrained girls even shouted out fierce words like "My husband is so fierce", which made Lin Xiangling feel a little embarrassed.
Although I knew it was just a joke, I was still a little scared by their enthusiasm.
During the break between the two rounds, Lin Xiangling took a cup of water to drink and happened to meet the muscular man from the Provincial Experimental School who was tied for first place with her.
"You are so popular. They are all cheering for you."
The muscular man was quite friendly, but Lin Xiangling remained alert: "Um... you, what do you want from me?"
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm, I just want to ask you... you are not a professional in this, right?"
"No."
"That's what I was saying. I heard that they said you were a top student. It seems that archery is just a hobby for you... Oh, I was planning to go to college based on my archery skill. I have been practicing for several years, but I can't even compare to an amateur... Oh, the gap between people is indeed greater than that between people and dogs..."
The muscular man sighed and muttered.
Lin Xiangling could hear that the other party was complimenting her. According to Lin Xiangling's understanding, any compliment must be motivated by some not very decent purpose, so Lin Xiangling was cautious and waited quietly for the muscular man to perform.
Soon, the muscular man took advantage of the fact that there was no one else around and said in a low voice: "Classmate, do me a favor."
"You said."
"Actually, I came here today, not only to represent the school in the competition, but also for another reason... I want to attract the attention of old lady Lin."
"Eh?"
"You know, the reason why our competition exists is because Mr. Lin likes to go into the mountains to hunt... Every year, the champion is awarded by Mrs. Lin herself. Do you know what this means?"
"what?"
"It means that the champion will get the attention of Old Lady Lin." The muscular man took out a scroll from behind his back like a magician. "This is the gift I plan to give to Old Lady Lin when I accept the award. It is a calligraphy work that I have studied for many years... I have investigated and Old Lady Lin likes this. In this way, Old Lady Lin will definitely remember my name... Do you understand?"
Lin Xiangling shook her head.
The muscular man slapped his thigh and said, "Oh! Why are you so slow? If she remembers my name, wouldn't it be easier for me to be appreciated than others when I work at the Lin Group in the future?"
"..."
Surprised!
Could it be really like this... Lin Xiangling was a little dumbfounded. She felt that this person was so complicated. Everyone else was playing archery, but he was playing with human relationships.
I couldn't help but sigh weakly: "Great, so awesome!"
Seeing that Lin Xiangling must have understood, the muscular man showed his true colors and said in a flattering manner: "So... can you please let me win in the second round and give the championship to me? Don't worry, I won't let you suffer..."
"No!" Lin Xiangling interrupted quickly, "Don't try to bribe me."
"Alas, how can this be considered a bribe? What I mean is, let's just be friends. I owe you a favor. My father is the director of Beicang Second Hospital. If you need anything in this regard in the future..."
"Don't say that anymore!" Lin Xiangling's face fell, and her tone became increasingly hostile. "I won't play a fake match. Also, please don't insult the word 'friend'. Only those who understand and care about each other can be called friends. Those who work for the sake of profit are just colluding with each other."
"..."
This was too straightforward, and the muscular man couldn't save face, and instantly changed into a submissive mode: "Sorry, sorry, I was wrong, sorry to bother you..."
Then, under Lin Xiangling's surprised gaze, he quickly fled away in shame.
Damn you, so embarrassing!
Although his father, the chief physician of a tertiary hospital, often educated him with things like "the art of thick black" to make him know how to be flexible and adaptable, the muscular man was not good at shady operations, and this was the first time he tried something like this.
Originally, I thought Lin Xiangling seemed very easy to talk to, so I decided to give it a try. Unexpectedly... Oh, forget it. This method is a bit vulgar in the first place, so it's better not to use it.
It turns out I still can’t learn what my dad taught me.
……
The second round used a longer 25-meter indoor target, which required greater strength and accuracy.
After the first round of 30 arrows, everyone's physical strength declined.
The contestants from the two schools showed a significant decline in their performance compared to the first round.
Lin Xiangling has done a lot of physical work since she was a child. She is physically stronger than girls of the same age, but her strength is limited, so her accuracy is inevitably affected.
On the other hand, the muscular man, who was a well-trained athlete, maintained a good condition throughout the whole process.
The Delin students present were getting more and more worried the more they watched. They had to admit that the guys from the Provincial Experimental School had some capital to be so active in the group, and this muscular guy really had something.
Finally, the other students' turns ended one after another, and only Lin Xiangling and the muscular man had the last arrow left.
But the outcome is already decided.
In terms of total score, Delin lagged behind the Provincial Experimental School by 9 points. Coincidentally, Lin Xiangling's score was also 9 points behind the muscular man.
An arrow is divided into 1 to 10 rings, which means 1 to 10 points, depending on where it hits the target.
If Lin Xiangling wants to win, the only possibility is that the last arrow needs to hit the center of the circle with the smallest area and get 10 rings. At the same time, the muscular man's last arrow must miss the target, because as long as the arrow hits his target, there will be at least 1 ring.
Judging from the stability shown by the muscular man throughout the game, this is nothing short of a dream.
The students who had traveled across the district from the provincial experimental school to watch the competition had already started celebrating.
"Tsk...what are they bragging about!" Jiang Qianxi complained while looking at her phone, "That muscular guy is obviously from the city youth team, but he has no shame in participating in the club's competition."
"How do you know this?" Lin Yun was a little curious.
"There's a relative of a high school classmate of my junior high school classmate who's a coach for a youth team... My classmates said that this guy really likes to show off. When he goes out to compete and meets a leader, he's very good at currying favor with him. Tsk tsk... Hey, Ayun, you said he's working so hard, could it be because of your grandma?"
"what?"
"After all, archery is a tradition in your family. I heard that some companies in the Lin Group will specially recruit employees who are good at archery..."
As expected of Jiang Qianxi, her little brain is very clever and smart.
“So, it’s actually quite impressive that the little piggy managed to hold on until now before losing…” Lin Yun sighed silently.
"But she's such a serious person, she will definitely be disappointed if she loses... Ah Yun, let's invite her to dinner tonight."
“…Don’t tease me.”
"I'm not teasing you. I really feel that the little pig has had such a hard time. As a friend, shouldn't I comfort her?"
As Jiang Qianxi spoke, she paid attention to Yu Sheng's emotions and saw that her expression changed slightly but not much, so she had an idea in her mind.
The sudden change in attitude towards Lin Xiangling was obviously not without reason.
The "Three-Phase Force Ejection Incident" gave Jiang Qianxi a wake-up call, and she finally got through the dilemma.
The friendship between Lin Yun and the little pig is an objective fact. What can Lin Xiangling do if she doesn't want to?
It all started from that early morning when she and Shengsheng stayed in bed while Lin Yun went out for a walk. That was the beginning of the appearance of the little pig. Perhaps from then on, it was a fate that could not be avoided.
Compared to the naturally stubborn Yu Sheng, Jiang Qianxi's bottom line is actually much more flexible. If there is something that she cannot change with her own strength, she will back off if time drags on.
Let Lin Yun and the little pig be good friends, so what? Lin Yun’s mentality towards the little pig is purest.
It is by no means ambiguous, and is much weaker than the relationship between the two childhood sweethearts.
Jiang Qianxi knew it very well.
The reason why she is often jealous is not because she thinks Lin Yun has changed his mind, but because she is greedy for the gentleness of Lin Yun when he coaxes her.
In this case, she thought it would be better to work hard to get along well with Lin Xiangling and be more generous, and Ayun would be happy too.
Yu Sheng and she agreed to face the outside world together and not worry about the little pig getting rid of Xu Jingyi, but Yu Sheng didn't say whether they should be nice to the little pig... Jiang Qianxi felt that there should be no problem, she observed that Yu Sheng was not angry.
Besides, when Lin Yun gave the little pig a massage secretly, Yu Sheng didn't protest much and just went along with it. Jiang Qianxi followed suit, but it was definitely not a betrayal of her best friend.
Yes, that’s right!
Lin Yun had no way of figuring out Jiang Qianxi's mental journey, nor did he know how this guy suddenly figured it out and became friends with Lin Xiangling.
It's always a good thing.
"Shengsheng, what do you think?" Lin Yun turned his head to seek the opinion of another childhood sweetheart.
"I don't care." Yu Sheng flipped the pages of the book in his hand and responded lazily.
"Then I'll go down and talk to her."
