"If you're just trying to show off, you don't need to sign up for so many events," he said. "What if you don't do well and end up embarrassing our class or Qibao Dwith School's name?"
Yue Yeqiao: "…"
Other classmates: "…"
Rong Xingyu blinked his eyes and replied seriously, "Thank you for your concern. I'll be careful. I'll do my best, please let me try it."
"But…" Rong Zhihao started to say more, but when he noticed the strange looks the others were giving him, his words trailed off.
Someone muttered, "Then why don't you run instead?"
Rong Zhihao froze. "I… can't."
Yue Yeqiao rolled her eyes secretly. Then shut up, will you?
How had she never noticed before that their class monitor Rong Zhihao had such an irritating tone sometimes?
"Rong Xingyu, we believe in you!"
"Even if you don't win, you're still the best!"
"Yeah! It's not like Qibao Dwith School's got any pride left to lose anyway, just run your heart out!"
"…You guys could've phrased that a little better."
