The fact that his mother was never seen made Xiaojun more and more disappointed. Although he repeatedly tried to build himself up mentally, his performance was still affected by this depressed mood.
He began to fall behind gradually.
He thought of his mother's many missed appointments, saying she would come to Pujiang to see him, but in the end she always failed to do so. With each disappointment, Xiaojun became more and more disappointed with her.
This time, my mother is going to miss the date too, maybe she didn’t set off at all!
A feeling of frustration enveloped his heart, making his steps heavier and heavier. Gradually, he could no longer keep up with the first echelon. When he ran the third lap, he fell between the first and second echelons.
They will be caught up by the second echelon.
The children who were shouting "come on" at the side were jumping anxiously, especially Dudu, jumping up and down, like little rabbits, scratching their heads and ears anxiously, wanting to rush over and push Xiaojun away.
Xiaobai kept the old man's instructions in mind and held her little hand tightly to prevent her from losing control and running to participate in the competition.
"Why is Chubby so stupid?" Liuliu from a distance said to Xi'er.
"She wanted to help Xiaojun run faster," Xi'er said.
"Are you tired, Xiaojun? Look at me, Xi'er, look, I'm so energetic~"
Liuliu jumped up and down on the spot a few times. Good guy, she asked her to compare Xiaojun to others again. She compared her shoes and her running skills. Comparisons among children are not advisable.
Lao Feng was anxious when he saw Xiaojun falling behind gradually. He caught up with him along the track and told Xiaojun that his mother had just called and was on her way over, so don't be discouraged and work harder. There is still one and a half laps to go.
.
Xiaojun's eyes lit up at first, and then he instantly understood that his grandfather had lied to him.
Grandpa is not good at lying. He dare not look at him when he lies.
And he has told such lies several times.
Lao Feng saw it, and Xiao Jun saw through his clumsy lie.
He was helpless, but when he saw Xiaobai and Dudu running at his feet to cheer for Xiaojun, he shouted again: "Xiaojun, you have to cheer for Xiaobai and Dudu, Dudu will run with you."
After so many days, she cares about you very much!"
After hearing this, Xiaojun's expression finally changed. He looked at Dudu and Xiaobai, who had been running with him, and their anxious expressions made him feel warm in his heart.
Yes, without his mother's encouragement, he still has his grandfather, good friends like Xiaobai, Dudu, Liuliu, Xi'er, and Boss Zhang who cares about him... Thinking of this, Xiaojun's pace couldn't help but speed up.
.
He finally stopped falling behind and hung closely behind the first echelon, gradually closing the distance.
However, there was only one last lap left, and it was difficult for Xiaojun to stand out from the situation.
Xiaojun was very upset. If he had regained his confidence earlier, if he hadn't been so fragile...
At this moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded in my ears:
"Come on, Xiaojun~~~Don't give up, stick to it~~~~~"
This voice was calm and kind. In the noisy environment, it seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, allowing him to hear it clearly.
Xiaojun was excited and looked over when he heard the sound...
He saw a thin and small woman, she was so ordinary, the kind of person who would not let anyone take a second look when standing in a crowd.
But at this moment, in Xiaojun's eyes, she was extremely huge and conspicuous, as if she was the only one left in the world, and wherever he looked, she was everywhere.
That's the person who haunts the dream!
Tears almost burst into Xiaojun's eyes.
"Come on, Xiaojun!!"
The person who called Mom clenched her hands and cheered him on.
"Come on! Xiaojun -" Xiaobai shouted loudly.
"Come on~~Xiaojun~~~" Dudu shouted loudly.
Xi'er and Liuliu, who had been lagging behind and hadn't caught up, mustered up all their strength to catch up and shouted at him: "Come on!! Xiaojun——"
At this moment, Xiaojun felt warm in his heart, and an unprecedented electric current spread throughout his body.
His pace was getting faster and faster. He gritted his teeth, stepped forward with his heavy legs, and started sprinting with half a lap left.
When the physical education teacher not far away saw this, he exclaimed that such a sprint could not be sustained for a long time. In the last fifty meters or even a hundred meters, Xiaojun would lose strength and he would be overtaken by others.
Fall behind.
"Xiaojun! Don't run like this!"
He shouted, Xiaojun glanced at him, tried his best to smile, and continued to sprint forward. There was only one thought in his mind, and there was only one voice in his heart, that is, come on! Win! Give it to your mother!
His sprint aroused the atmosphere of the scene, and cheers came one after another.
Who says long-distance running doesn’t have the passion of sprinting?? The first four-fifths of the race are about strategy and endurance, and the last fifth of the race is about the final belief!
Whoever has the strongest belief can win the final championship!
In the sprint stage of the last 100 meters, it was even more exciting than the 100 meters! People stood on both sides of the track, bringing the atmosphere to its peak.
"Here~~" Xiaobai squeezed into a position and called his best friend behind him to come over quickly. The four little ones successfully got out of the isolation line, next to the track, and each one tried their best to stretch their necks and look at the way forward...
Zhang Tan and Lao Feng stood behind them, protecting them.
"Here it comes! It's not Xiaojun!" Xi'er's eyes were sharp and she immediately saw the person rushing towards her. It was a very lean little brother, not Xiaojun.
The four little ones continued to stretch their necks and look hard, hoping that Xiaojun would appear soon.
But the second one is not Xiaojun, and neither is the third one!
It wasn’t until the fourth one that I saw Xiaojun!
Xiaojun ran wildly, clenching his teeth, his face turned red from suppressing his emotions. There were people around him, and the physical education teacher couldn't follow him. He could only stand on the outside anxiously and pray.
"Xiaojun~~"
Xiaojun's mother also stood behind Xiaobai and others, waving to Xiaojun who was catching up quickly.
Xiaojun, who was running wildly, seemed to have telepathy. He happened to look up and saw that he roared. His extremely heavy footsteps not only did not slow down, but accelerated further. Amid the exclamations of everyone, he passed the third place... and then
, he surpassed the second place again!
He followed closely behind the first one, who felt that Chai Feng behind him was getting closer and closer, and did not dare to look back, let alone neglect. He also used his last strength and vowed to hold on to his advantage until the end.
There was still less than 10 meters away from the finish line. Xiaojun followed closely behind the first place, trying to close the distance.
There were cheers all around, some cheering for the first place, but most of them cheering for Xiaojun, who came in second.
In the final race, sprinting all the way and surpassing all the way, it makes people's blood boil and their meridians surge.
Dudu went crazy, waving her little fists in the air and jumping up and down. Xiaobai was worried that he couldn't hold her down. Luoliu also helped her, holding her clothes tightly, constantly reminding her to calm down.
The two crossed the line at the same time, making it hard to tell who was ahead and who was behind.
After the two people crossed the line, they were both gasping for air, sweating profusely, and breathing like cattle.
Xiaojun was supported by the physical education teacher who squeezed over. He could no longer hold on and could not stand steadily.
"Xiaojun~~~"
His mother came forward, heartbroken.
Xiaojun tried his best to look at her and asked the PE teacher: "Who is first?"
The physical education teacher said: "You are first! You are! You are 0.3 seconds faster!"
Xiaojun grinned, fell into his arms, and passed out...
