Chapter 158: One Bolder Than the Other

“Oh? A competition?”

“Yun Ling’er, aren’t you a sure bet for first place?”

Hearing that the four were going to compete and had taken it upon themselves to make him the prize, Wang Haoran was a bit puzzled.

Though Yun Ling’er was the most burdened, she was much stronger than the other three. (tln : remember, ling’er has the biggest cup)

Through her dual cultivation efforts with Wang Haoran, Yun Ling’er’s strength had reached the middle stage of Dark Jin.

The other three had only just touched the edge of Bright Jin; no matter what, Yun Ling’er was sure to be first, right?

Yun Ling’er knew this too, so she stood with her hands on her hips, looking very smug.

“Of course!”

“I’ve been pretending to be a good girl here at school for so long that they’ve forgotten how strong I am! They just see me as a big-chested girl with poor athletic ability!”

“Haha, they’ve forgotten that the three of them together couldn’t beat me with one hand!”

Yun Ling’er laughed heartily, confident she had Wang Haoran in her grasp.

She even envisioned herself monopolizing him while Xia Xinyan, Zhou Yinyin, and Liu Xinyao could only watch enviously.

The other three, seeing Yun Ling’er’s arrogant demeanor, were exasperated.

“You’re so full of yourself! Acting all high and mighty!”

“Hurry up!”

The three of them, full of disdain, pushed Yun Ling’er towards the gathering area for participants.

Leaving Wang Haoran to wait by himself.

Since the afternoon sun was still a bit harsh, Wang Haoran found a shady spot nearby, watching the girls warm up from afar.

Due to the large number of participants and the limited lanes, the races were conducted in batches.

For the 200-meter run, the first among the four to compete was Liu Xinyao.

Though she appeared clumsy, she had practiced martial arts and could outrun most boys, let alone these girls.

She naturally came in first.

At the finish line, while others were bent over, hands on knees, panting, Liu Xinyao was happily chatting with her classmates.

Afterward, Liu Xinyao returned to where Wang Haoran was, quickly spotting him waving from the shade.

“Brother-in-law!”

She ran over and sat beside Wang Haoran, excitedly asking.

“How did I do?”

“Yao Yao, you did great, finishing first!”

In reality, it was quite average, running rather uncoordinatedly, relying on brute strength to achieve miracles, but Wang Haoran still praised her.

Liu Xinyao was delighted, leaning her face closer to Wang Haoran.

“Do you want to reward me?”

Her breath, slightly warm, hit Wang Haoran’s face.

Having just exercised under the hot sun, Liu Xinyao was slightly out of breath, a fine sheen of sweat on her forehead, her skin a bit flushed.

Wang Haoran could feel the heat emanating from her sweat-dampened body beneath her clothes.

The scent of sweat mixed with her natural fragrance filled the air with youthful hormones.

Wang Haoran leaned closer.

“Of course, what reward do you want?”

“A kiss!”

After saying this, seeing Wang Haoran didn’t object, Liu Xinyao wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.

Two minutes of passionate kissing ensued.

When they parted, Liu Xinyao’s breathing was even more labored, her face more flushed, her excitement higher.

“The others will take a while to return. Let’s do it again!”

A second kiss followed.

This time, they held each other tighter, her sweat-slick body warmly entwined with Wang Haoran.

After seven minutes.

Zhou Yinyin, arriving second, saw Wang Haoran with sweat-stained clothes and Liu Xinyao’s still-flushed face, instantly understanding everything.

“I knew it, she beat me to it!”

She snorted, pulling Wang Haoran up.

“Come with me to buy water!”

Though there were staff distributing bottled water at the sports field, Zhou Yinyin still led Wang Haoran to the vending machine beside the stands.

But she didn’t stop there, continuing to pull Wang Haoran behind the stands.

“Yinyin, do you want a reward too?”

“Exactly!”

After saying this, Zhou Yinyin forcefully made Wang Haoran lower his head and kissed him.

Used to staying indoors and having poor stamina, Zhou Yinyin was panting heavily after the run.

With each kiss, she had to pause, looking at Wang Haoran with watery eyes, catching her breath.

Their tongues entwined, it felt hotter than usual to Wang Haoran.

Yet, Zhou Yinyin seemed to enjoy it immensely.

Eventually, tired of standing, she hung onto Wang Haoran, wrapping her legs tightly around his waist and arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.

When they returned after buying water.

Xia Xinyan was already there, chatting with Liu Xinyao.

“You took so long to buy water, where is it?”

Hearing Xia Xinyan’s disdainful words, Zhou Yinyin was unfazed.

“We drank it!”

“Haoran-ge had a sip, I had a sip, feeding each other until it was gone!”

Hearing Zhou Yinyin’s blatant bragging, Xia Xinyan stood up immediately.

“Then I’ll go buy with Haoran-ge!”

Thus, before Wang Haoran could sit down, Xia Xinyan pulled him behind the stands again.

But when Wang Haoran thought Xia Xinyan would find a hidden spot for a kiss, she kept walking, leading him to a door.

Seeing her unlock the door, Wang Haoran was curious.

“Isn’t this the equipment storage room?”

“Yes, this sports event is organized by the student council, and I’m part of it, so I volunteered to manage the equipment.”

“There are only two keys, one with me and one with the supervising teacher. No one will disturb us here!”

“…” Wang Haoran was puzzled, “It’s just a kiss. Being seen isn’t a big deal; no need to hide here, right?”

Opening the door, Xia Xinyan, pulling Wang Haoran inside, asked back.

“What do you think?”

“……!”

Wang Haoran hadn’t expected the usually passive Xia Xinyan to be so bold!

Once the door closed, Xia Xinyan immediately pressed Wang Haoran onto a chair, straddling him.

Her warm, sticky body wrapped tightly around him.

“Haoran-ge, I love you!”

“I love you too, Xiaoyan!”

“Then… Haoran-ge, don’t mind them. First, first…”

As Xia Xinyan spoke, she twisted her body.

“First, cherish me, okay?”

“……”

“Uh, can’t you?”

Seeing Wang Haoran’s silence, Xia Xinyan pouted.

Wang Haoran helplessly replied.

“…It’s not that, it’s just… Yinyin and Yao Yao are already outside the door…”
