Bite Your Fingertips

back to front and stood in their predetermined position.

Dream-Ge was mentally prepared and his eyes exuded affection.
He tilted his head to look over.

What entered his sight was a suntanned man more robust than himself.

???

Class B’s sports committee member displayed a bright smile, showcasing his big mouth and white teeth.
He nodded in a friendly manner and asked Dream-Ge, “Brother, what’s the matter with you, have your eyes cramped?”

Dream-Ge shook his head, only feeling that his heart was smashed into pieces.
Then he fiercely turned back and glowered at Zhang Yueshan.

Zhang Yueshan looked up at the sky, resolutely not meeting Dream-Ge’s death glare.

Next was the principal’s and vice-principal’s speech, the referee’s oath, and the athlete’s oath.

After the entire process, Chu Yu tiredly stood.

He followed behind Lu Shi, standing at the end of the line.

Standing until now made his legs a little bit soft.
He slightly moved towards Lu Shi’s side.
Thinking that the distance was good enough, he began leaning on Lu Shi’s body.

Lu Shi noticed it, but instead of avoiding him he stood up straight, allowing Chu Yu to lean more comfortably.

Chu Yu was very self-aware as he muttered in a small voice, “Ai, Chu Yu, you’re so delicate.”

Lu Shi matched his tone.
“So you know that too.”

After finishing the whole process with great difficulty, each class sat down on the place designated to their class.

It was a bit quiet for the first two minutes.
After a while, similar to the lifting of a ban, melon seeds, dried meat, chocolate, and snacks could be thrown from the front row to the last.

The cheerful Old Ye didn’t care, and was even all smiles as he said with emotion, “This is living up to youth!”

Chu Yu was a bit sleepy because he’d read comics until late the night before.

He yawned and asked Lu Shi, “When is your 3,000 meters?”

Zhang Yueshan, who was holding the competition schedule in his hand, rushed to answer, “It’s about to start! The men’s 3,000 meters is the second event, and in five minutes, Lu-Shen can set off for the roll-call.”

He was full of confidence.
“Lu-Shen, the top three can earn credits, the total credits of the class are set in the top five, and there will be prizes! When I budget credits, I’ll give you first place.”

“En, okay.”

When Lu Shi went to the inspection location for roll-call, Chu Yu watched from a distance.
He estimated that the time should be enough, and started searching for his school bag.

Zhang Yueshan helped him carry the school bag from the side.
“School Flower, what’s the matter?”

Chu Yu received his bag and raised his eyebrows.
“I’m going to cheer for Lu Shi!”

After speaking, Chu Yu hugged it, walked to the front of the class row, opened the zipper, and took out three kraft paper boxes from his bag.

Opening the box, Chu Yu took out the contents and placed them on the ground one by one.

The homeroom teacher, Old Ye, was very interested.
Seeing three metal brackets lined up on the ground with red-tipped rockets facing upwards placed on them, he asked Chu Yu, “Small rocket model? Student Chu Yu, what are these for?”

Chu Yu was very excited.
“It’s to cheer for Lu Shi, I’ll demonstrate right away!”

With that said, he took out the lighter he had prepared in advance from his backpack and lit the fuse.

Once the sound ‘Biu—’ was heard, the arm-length rocket lifted off and a long, big red banner was scrolled out from its tail, with several big words on it: ‘Everyone, there’s no use fighting’.

All the eyes on the whole sports field gathered over.

Chu Yu ran to the second bracket, lit the fuse rope, and once again ‘Biu—’, the small rocket lifted off.
This time the red banner read: ‘First place is Lu Shi’s’.

The last ‘Biu—’.

The long strip of banner read: ‘Thank you for the win’.1

Immensely arrogant, domineering, and unbridled.

Everyone was shocked by this operation.

Old Ye looked up at the red banner floating in the wind and commented, “The attitude is modest, knowing how to say thank you for the win.
The creativity is also pretty good, but the antithesis isn’t neatly done.
Student Chu Yu, your use of language can still see some improvement next time.”

Dream-Ge was standing on the edge of the athletic track, holding mineral water and glucose chocolate in his hands, ready to save a life if a classmate fell on the ground.

Looking at the banner fluttering in the wind from a distance, he couldn’t hold back saying, “My grass, School Flower is really unrestrained, such pulling hatred technique is unmatched!”

Standing at the starting point, Lu Shi asked rhetorically after hearing his words, “Is there a problem?”

With a ‘bang’, the starting gun sounded followed by bouts of cheering.

Many girls gathered on the side of the track, all of them here to see Lu Shi.

After Chu Yu released the little rockets, he ran to the finish line and watched Lu Shi’s game closely.

At any rate, he picked the event and made the training plan.
He had to come and watch.

Peering at the two sides, Chu Yu wondered, “How can everyone’s enthusiasm for sports events be this high?”

Dream-Ge answered, “All came to see Lu-Shen.”

“See Lu Shi?”

“Yeah.” Dream-Ge was deeply envious of this kind of thing.
After thinking about it, he was worried that Chu Yu was sad so he added, “It’s okay, School Flower.
If you go for a run on the field, there will also be these many girls who’ll watch you! You’re also very popular!”

Chu Yu nodded but said nothing.

Lu Shi had good physical strength and strong explosive power.
From beginning to end he was in first place, leaving behind the second by a small half lap.

Zhang Yueshan squeezed the competition schedule, nervous and excited.
“Lu-Shen should be fine, right? Is it possible to take first place? Will he, will he? It’ll certainly be a good start for our class!”

Chu Yu uttered, “Definitely first, there’s no suspense.”

But there was still a bit of nervousness in his heart.

Until the second half of the last lap, the one in second place began accelerating.
Lu Shi also increased his speed, rushing towards the finish line like the wind.

Zhang Yueshan exhaled.
“The second kid behind, unless he steps on Hot Wheels, he can’t surpass Lu-Shen!”

Dream-Ge had already prepared a towel, mineral water, and chocolate.
He shouted at the top of his voice, “Lu-Shen jiayou! Go go go!”

Chu Yu saw Lu Shi getting closer and closer, nearer and nearer.
As if demons and gods were at work2, Chu Yu stood behind the finish line.

Like a long shot in a movie scene, in his view, Lu Shi approached.
So close that he could clearly see his tight muscle lines and the wet stains of sweat on his skin.

He crossed the finish line.

The referee teacher at the side reported his results.
“FIRST!”

Because of inertia, Lu Shi continued to run for a while after crossing the finish line.
Until finally, he stopped in front of Chu Yu, released his strength, and fell on him.

Chu Yu retreated half a step and stood firmly against the synthetic athletics track.

Both his hands supported Lu Shi.

Being too close, he could feel the warmth emitting from every inch of Lu Shi’s skin, the dripping of sweat from his wet hair to his own skin, and the hurried pants beside his ears.

As if the person who ran 3,000 meters on the track was himself, Chu Yu’s heartbeat was a little fast.

Lu Shi’s throat carried deepness and husk together with a smile as he said, “So well-behaved, here to receive me?”

“Mn.”

Chu Yu was a bit bereft of words.

Lu Shi chuckled and called his name, “Chu Yu.”

“What”

“Want to bite me?” Lu Shi’s voice was awfully low and his breath was quite heavy.
“I want.”

承让承让 (Chéng ràng chéng ràng): lit.
You let me win.
It is said politely after winning a game.
It’s like saying ‘I got lucky’ or ‘It’s due to you taking it easy on me’ after winning.
I tl-ed it as Thank you for the win for the next paragraphs to make sense.

Inexplicable event.
