Chapter 1290: Chapter 1291: Going All Out Chapter 1290: Chapter 1291: Going All Out Wang Yi also surprised him, as she was running in third place.
He glanced at Wang Yi subconsciously once again and noticed that she was wearing a pair of sandals.
She had been called over by him on a whim and wasn’t prepared, wearing her usual work attire and shoes.
Could she really run like this?
Wang Yi bit her lower lip, her face flushing red. It was clear that she was putting in a lot of effort to catch up to Xu Yiqiu.
Suddenly, she stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
Chen Yin’s heart skipped a beat, and his pace slowed.
Wang Yi barely steadied herself and then desperately scrambled back to her feet.
But this was just a minor race to lighten the mood, nothing important. Was it necessary to go to such lengths?
Wang Yi gritted her teeth and persisted.
“Go for it!” Chiang Xiao had long since reached ng Xinian’s side and saw both Xu Yiqiu’s predicant and Wang Yi’s determination. She imdiately cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled.
Wang Yi heard her voice, steeled her resolve once more, and with a burst of energy, lunged forward and ended up sprawling on the ground, passing the line that ng Xinian had drawn.
The second after she fell, Xu Yiqiu also dashed past her.
Xu Yiqiu seed to have lost strength too, leaning toward ng Xinian and then collapsing.
A hand, steady and strong, caught her.
Xu Yiqiu looked up and t Chiang Xiao’s bright eyes.
“Mr. Xu, be careful.”
Chiang Xiao’s voice was very gentle.
“Thank you, Xiao Chiang.”
Chiang Xiao let go and was about to check on Wang Yi, but saw Chen Yin had already hurried over and helped Wang Yi up.
“How are you? Did you hurt yourself anywhere when you fell?”
He had seen the whole last scene clearly.
Originally, Wang Yi had no chance of beating Xu Yiqiu, but it was her desperate lunge forward that allowed her to win by a split-second.
Wang Yi’s palms and knees were scraped and bleeding. It was sumr, and the clothes she wore provided no protection at all.
Her palms stung fiercely, but she still pursed her lips, smiled, shook her head, and said, “I’m fine.”
Chen Yin grabbed her hand, saw the abrasions on it, and his face darkened instantly. “You’re bleeding and still say you’re fine? It’s just a trivial ga; why did you push yourself so hard?”
The others had also arrived and were busy asking ng Xinian questions.
The first place in the n’s race went to a man nad Gu Zhong.
“Do I get a roast rabbit leg personally prepared by Officer ng?”
ng Xinian said, “For the n’s prize, I’ll take care of hunting the rabbits, but you’re in charge of roasting it yourself.”
They all cheered teasingly.
“Clearly, Xiao Chiang has won now. I think this race was rigged from the start. Officer ng definitely knew Xiao Chiang was impressive!”
They teased and made a commotion, but no one truly cared about being first or second—after all, if ng Xinian really caught any rabbits, even if they didn’t get rabbit legs, they could still enjoy the rabbit at.
It was just for fun and gas.
The two n who had been following Xu Yiqiu hurried to help her rest to the side.
“Teacher Xu is really amazing, only slightly slower than Xiao Chiang.”
“Yeah, if it weren’t for Miss Wang’s lucky fall, you would have been second.”
Xu Yiqiu listened to their words, smiled faintly, brushed a stray lock of hair behind her ear, and lightly wiped the fine sweat beads on her forehead with the back of her hand.
Even then, she looked incredibly charming.
Even her sweat seed alluring.
The two teachers gazed at her, unable to help themselves from staring boldly, one of them even unconsciously swallowing his saliva.
Xu Yiqiu looked at ng Xinian; he was beside Xiao Chiang, talking to her in a low voice.
