"Surpass Spencer! Surpass that jerk!!"
If it can be said that, because of Yan Huan's reputation, everyone was cheering for him when he was facing Owen in a 1V1 duel.
Then when it came to Spencer, all that was left in everyone was contempt, wishing she would just get lost quickly.
Because she was the first to sprint out, when she took the lead on the curve, the stands on the side were filled with jeers.
In contrast, Cooper from the Track and Field Club had just started to chase with determination, and the stands erupted in uniform encouragement and cheers.
Mocking laughter, insults, were like the incessant chirping of birds that lived high in the castle.
"Wow..."
She clenched her teeth, trying to shake off those mocking and ridiculing voices that had followed her like a shadow since her childhood.
She understood all too well that it was because she was bald, because she was a fool, because she was bad at everything and could only rely on her mother…
That was why she was disliked, that was why she was bullied.
Thinking this way, she once again felt the fear, the desire to break away from this nightmare.
"Wow..."
She sped up once more, shaking off Cooper's sister behind her and all the noise around her.
But seeing this, Jiang Yun's and the half-kneeling Yan Huan's expressions turned grim.
If Spencer was running 400 meters, sprinting all out would have been fine, but she was to run 800 meters continuously.
It's impressive to be ahead by more than ten seconds after the first lap, but what about the second lap?
When you're out of strength, and there's still a perfectly strong Cooper's sister in the second lap.
"Spencer, slow down! Pace yourself! Pace!!"
Jiang Yun shouted anxiously, but at that moment, Spencer was far on the other side of the track field, and with the audience in the stands speaking up, how could she hear it?
"Huff... Huff..."
Just as Spencer dashed furiously and Jiang Yun was at a loss, Yuanlina's voice suddenly came through the speakers around,
"Hey hey, Spencer is sprinting like this, but what about the fourth baton? You should slow down! Pacing is important..."
"!!"
Hearing Yuanlina's loudspeaker-amplified reminder, Yan Huan silently glanced towards the media room and gave her a thumbs up.
Yuanlina held the microphone and chuckled with a giggle.
Hearing Yuanlina's reminder, Spencer finally realized she needed to slow her pace.
With the pace gradually slowing down, she smoothly entered the second curve and could see the end of the first lap.
And so, she also saw Yan Huan getting up little by little.
But, if one is naturally just a little pig, it's normal to be bullied and disliked, then why would he stand up for her?
Why would he believe in her who always messed everything up?
Why would he believe that she could win?
Thinking this way, Spencer gripped the baton tightly and gradually reached the final 100 meters.
As Spencer slowed her pacing, Cooper's sister, who could once again sprint without restraint, quickly caught up.
"Step... Step... Step..."
Behind, after Cooper passed the last curve, her speed suddenly increased another notch.
She was the type who would accelerate in the latter part of the race and had very good endurance, surprisingly able to produce a qualitative change in speed at the end.
Originally slowing the pace and feeling the steps behind her suddenly speeding up like raindrops, she subconsciously also changed her own pace and did not want to be overtaken.
But as the pacing changed abruptly once more, especially when her mind was in such turmoil, Spencer stumbled and fell heavily onto the 100-meter track.
"Thud!!"
"Hiss…"
After sliding on the track for a distance, the pain made Spencer crinkle her face and gasp in a cold breath.
"Spencer!"
"Spencer has fallen, the baton has also dropped on the ground, can she still stand up?!"
Jiang Yun's and Yuanlina's voices came at the same time, while Yan Huan's eyebrows also slightly frowned.
A silence fell over the stands, aside from the faint sounds of mockery, no one else had any reaction.
Feeling the pain coming from her body, Spencer clenched her teeth and fiercely punched the ground,
"Bang!"
"!!"
That punch directly caused her originally pale palm to show traces of blood, and looking down, her knees were also scraped.
The sensation of pain stimulated a surge of adrenaline, and the next second, she stood up without hesitation, picked up the baton that had fallen on the ground, and continued to rush forward.
"Sister, come on!"
Due to the sudden fall, Cooper's sister and Spencer were now far apart.
Gasping, she handed over the last baton to her sister, and then the fully energized sister charged straight ahead.
"Spencer, come on!"
Jiang Yun cheered for Spencer as she ran by, but her faint voice couldn't possibly compete with everyone else in the stadium,
"Cooper Cooper Cooper Cooper!"
Thus, her cheers were buried at the very bottom layer of sound.
Yan Huan watched as the girl struggled like a leaf on the vast ocean, beaten by disgust and rejection.
Then, as if unable to contain himself any longer, he moved his still-recovering legs and followed her.
At the same time, his eyes narrowed, and he spoke out from the bottom of his heart loudly,
"Spencer, run!!!"
Yan Huan's voice that rang out alone at the sidelines, was like a firework that burst into the night sky.
That warm, that bright firework pierced through the night's depth and cold, illuminating her eyes and face.
