142: Chapter 142 A Crushing Victory

Not far away.

Lin Baixuan and Su Yu silently held their foreheads and turned to walk toward the spectator stands behind them.

It was simply too painful to watch.

Right now, they just wanted to pretend they didn't know Lin Xiao.

"I was indeed overthinking it. There's absolutely no need to worry about A-Xiao being influenced by a girlfriend, because he will never have one."

"That's right, Third Sister. Now you only need to worry about how to defend A-Xiao later."

"..."

With that said, the two of them silently looked toward the swimming pool.

Today, Qiu Xiaoyan had clearly dressed up carefully, wearing a beautiful dress, delicate makeup on her face, and her hair had been specially curled.

But now?

After being pulled out of the water, she was soaked from head to toe.

Her clothes clung to her body, revealing traces of her undergarments.

Her hairstyle was ruined; part of it was plastered to her face, while the rest was disheveled and still dripping water.

Fortunately, her waterproof makeup worked well, so her makeup hadn't run too badly, and she still had a pretty little face.

It was just a bit disheveled, making her look pitiful and endearing.

"When the time comes, it would be better to have A-Xiao hire another lawyer."

Su Yu sighed silently.

She certainly didn't want her nearly perfect career to have a stain because of a guy like Lin Xiao.

Perhaps sensing Third Sister's dilemma, Lin Xiao finally showed some consideration.

He grabbed a large bath towel from the side and wrapped it around Qiu Xiaoyan.

He also took out a tissue to help Qiu Xiaoyan wipe her face.

This eased Qiu Xiaoyan's embarrassed and angry heart a little.

Seeing this scene, Lin Baixuan and Su Yu both silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems A-Xiao is still salvageable."

A smile of relief appeared on Lin Baixuan's face.

Su Yu also silently nodded.

However, Lin Xiao suddenly seemed to see something and reached out toward Qiu Xiaoyan's face.

"Don't move, it looks like there's something on your face."

As he spoke, before Qiu Xiaoyan could open her mouth, he pinched something with his fingertips and gave it a gentle tug.

Looking at the thing in Lin Xiao's hand, Qiu Xiaoyan's expression changed repeatedly.

"Lin Xiao, I never want to talk to you again!"

After saying this, Qiu Xiaoyan could no longer hold back and ran away without looking back.

Lin Baixuan and Su Yu looked at the object in Lin Xiao's hand with strange expressions.

Wasn't that an eyelid tape?

"Sigh, forget it, don't bother trying to save him anymore."

"..."

Zhang Xiaofu came in from outside and saw the scene of Qiu Xiaoyan leaving while crying.

He walked up and asked curiously, "What happened here?"

"I don't know. She was fine, then she just ran off."

Lin Xiao was completely baffled.

Zhang Xiaofu shook his head and sighed, "A woman's heart is a needle at the bottom of the sea!"

...

Inside the competition venue, the Athletic student had also arrived early to prepare.

While warming up, he looked provocatively toward Lin Xiao.

But unexpectedly, after a while, a classmate came over to call him.

"Why are you still here? The roll call for the long-distance race outside has started."

"Long-distance race?"

The Athletic student was stunned; he didn't remember signing up for any long-distance running event.

Seeing that his classmate sounded very certain, he had no choice but to follow him out to take a look.

To his surprise, he was actually on the list of participants.

The person in charge of this event was a professor from their college, so he didn't dare to question it and had to rush to prepare.

Long-distance running was not his forte, and by the time the race ended, more than half of his energy had been spent.

But before he could catch his breath, someone else came to call him.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the triple jump over there is about to start!"

"Huh?"

If the long-distance race might have been signed up for by a professional teacher, then what was going on with this triple jump?

It wasn't in his professional courses at all!

But hearing the loudspeaker constantly calling his name, he had to bite the bullet and go.

After another round of physical exertion, he finally managed to get back to the poolside before the swimming competition.

Seeing Lin Xiao giving him a malicious smile, he finally realized he had been played.

Standing on the starting platform, he said viciously, "Lin Xiao, you are too despicable!"

"Isn't this what I learned from you!"

Lin Xiao didn't care.

He never claimed to be a gentleman, so naturally, he didn't mind using some tactics to give someone a taste of their own medicine.

The Athletic student was furious, but when he looked down and saw the impressive area under Lin Xiao's tight swimming trunks, he became even angrier!

However, he firmly believed that heaven would not be so unfair.

It wouldn't favor a playboy like Lin Xiao in every aspect!

However, he was soon slapped in the face.

The moment they entered the water, he felt Lin Xiao beside him shoot out at an extremely fast speed!

That kind of explosive power was something he had never seen before.

He was anxious, but because of the two previous events, his muscle strength was severely insufficient, and he simply couldn't catch up.

He had no choice but to constantly comfort himself, thinking that Lin Xiao, an amateur, had just used up all his strength in one go and would surely lose energy before long.

Once that happened, he would definitely be able to catch up with the support of his technique!

However, he miscalculated again.

Lin Xiao's speed never slowed down from start to finish; in the end, it was as if he were teasing him, staying two or three meters ahead of him the whole time.

When he accelerated, Lin Xiao also accelerated, not giving him the slightest chance.

Soon, the race ended.

Lin Xiao undoubtedly took first place, while the Athletic student, due to exhaustion and a mental breakdown, only managed to get second to last.

It was much worse than his usual performance.

"What, you're not convinced?"

Lin Xiao's eyes were full of provocation.

The Athletic student clenched his fists and pointed to another empty practice pool nearby, saying, "If you have the guts, let's race again over there!"

He was certain that after swimming, Lin Xiao's stamina must have been affected too.

Roughly speaking, they were back at the same starting line, and he couldn't possibly lose again!

Lin Xiao nodded indifferently, "Whatever, if you want to race, then let's race!"

Soon, the two of them stood at the edge of the practice pool.

As the starting gun fired, they both jumped into the water.

This time, Lin Xiao intended to make the Athletic student completely convinced of his defeat.

He directly used his most familiar Doggy Paddle, instantly leaving the Athletic student far behind.

The Athletic student didn't even realize what had happened.

Unable to feel where Lin Xiao was, he thought Lin Xiao was playing some other trick, so he stopped in the middle to check.

When he poked his head out of the water, what he saw was Lin Xiao, moving at a speed as if he had an engine installed, swimming back from the other side!

Then, he passed by him and came back again.

Too fast!

Is this a speed a human can achieve?

And what was up with that posture?

If someone had been timing it, Lin Xiao would have definitely broken a record!

The Athletic student was dumbfounded.

After returning to the shore in a daze, he still couldn't believe that he had been completely crushed by someone he had always considered an incompetent playboy.

While he was in a trance, Lin Xiao had already gone off happily to receive his medal.

But when Lin Xiao returned to the spectator stands, he saw Su Yu's dark face.

"Third Sister, what's wrong?"

"Didn't we agree that you were not allowed to use the Doggy Paddle!"

Su Yu said this almost through gritted teeth.

"I didn't use it during the competition. I just swam with it over there, and no one saw it."

Lin Xiao laughed foolishly.

But soon he couldn't laugh anymore, because he noticed many people in the spectator stands looking at him, holding back laughter on their faces.

Looking up, he saw the big screen above playing the footage of him doing the Doggy Paddle just now.

"After the competition ended, your school's TV station wanted to interview you, and it just so happened they recorded the footage of you swimming over there."
