Thank you Excuse.me for the coffee treat! 
A chapter will be released early for each coffee treated as a thank you gift. Thank you everyone for reading this work together with me!
After casually scanning the room’s occupants, Bai Cheng paused on He Jiajia.
With a smirk, he deliberately changed his address. “Yiyi, it seems there’s still over ten minutes until the competition starts.”
Hearing this, Mo Yi cracked his knuckles expressionlessly and replied softly, “Five minutes should be enough.”
Bai Cheng then closed the door to the locker room, stood up straight, walked over to Mo Yi, and grinned as he rubbed his shoulder. “I agree. Three minutes should suffice…”
And so, two and a half minutes later, the locker room was filled with people groaning in pain.
He Jiajia stared blankly at the scene before her, seemingly unable to comprehend what had just happened.
She had heard about Bai Cheng’s prowess, but was Mo Yi equally formidable?
Two against eight, yet the opponents didn’t even have a chance to fight back.
As the leader of these people, Ma Yong naturally received the worst beating, being alternately pinned down by Bai Cheng and Mo Yi.
He Jiajia had initially thought of intervening when she saw Ma Yong being beaten up. But then she realized that if it weren’t for her discovery, and if Mo Yi and Bai Cheng were not as skilled in fighting as they seemed, the one getting injured might have been someone else.
Considering the possibility of the nail causing lasting damage if it had pierced someone’s foot, Ma Yong deserved the beating.
Moreover, seeing Ma Yong’s eyes swollen black and blue was just too comical; she couldn’t help but stifle a laugh.
Seeing He Jiajia laughing at him, Ma Yong felt even more hopeless. This was just too embarrassing!
After finishing off their opponents, Mo Yi walked back to his locker and poured out several nails from his shoes. Turning to Ma Yong, he sneered, “Can’t win in a proper match, can’t win in a fight, can only resort to these petty tricks. Useless!”
Upon hearing those words, Ma Yong seemed to be struck, struggling to get up and retorting, “You little brat, what did you say? Let me tell you, I’m not useless!”
Mo Yi glanced at the scattered nails on the ground and replied, “If you say you’re not useless, then you’re not? Then who was doing this disgusting thing just now?”
[“Useless, you’re just useless, can’t do anything right!”]
[“Why are you so useless! Can’t you learn something from Jiajia? Luckily your long-distance running results are still decent, but with your grades, you’re just embarrassing us!”]
“I’m not, I’m not useless, I’m not…” The tall boy shook his head, repeating the words over and over.

Can you please not report this incident to the school? If he gets another demerit, Ma Yong will be expelled.”
After speaking, He Jiajia quickly looked at Ma Yong and urged him, “Ma Yong, apologize quickly! Making mistakes is not a big deal, what’s most important is admitting your faults and changing for the better. I believe a person’s essence doesn’t easily change!”
Mo Yi had a good impression of He Jiajia. She not only let him copy her homework but also sometimes helped him take notes and bring things for him. She was very kind to Mo Yi.
He wasn’t unwilling to give He Jiajia face, but seeing Ma Yong’s current state, Mo Yi couldn’t help but feel a sense of familiarity. It was like the feeling of being hurt and wounded that he had experienced before.
Looking at the other party with some confusion, Mo Yi thought about how Ma Yong was always the most serious one during training, putting in much more effort than anyone else in the department. Even Mo Yi himself had only surpassed this person because of his talent. And with that thought in mind, Mo Yi made a decision.
So he shook his head. “I don’t plan to let this go so easily. Ma Yong, even though we just beat you up, your legs aren’t injured. Do you dare to compete with me on the field?”
“What?” Ma Yong only snapped out of it after hearing this. “You mean, you want to compete with me?”
“Yes.” Mo Yi, who had already changed his shoes, stood there, looking straight into Ma Yong’s eyes, his tone full of seriousness.
Ma Yong knew he didn’t have any other choice but to nod in agreement.
Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow. Although he didn’t understand why his little dog made such a decision, as long as the pup was happy playing, he had no objections.
So, a few minutes later, Ma Yong appeared on the field with a dazed expression, alongside Mo Yi.
He didn’t even notice how much attention his panda eyes attracted. It wasn’t until the coach shouted at them to get ready that Ma Yong subconsciously began to adjust his state.
Mo Yi stretched his muscles, then assumed the ready-to-run posture, even turning his head to smile provocatively at Ma Yong.
Ma Yong’s teeth itched with anger, but he was finally stirred up again.
When the starting gun sounded, everyone dashed out like arrows released from a bow.
Mo Yi ran at the front, with Ma Yong close behind. He pushed himself to the limit to catch up with Mo Yi, panting heavily, his expression fierce. But when he finally managed to run shoulder to shoulder with Mo Yi, he glanced over and saw a smile on the other’s face.
It was a carefree smile, as if his current run was a joyful activity rather than a competition.
Joyful? Why was he running so happily?
Ma Yong’s brain had a momentary pause. He had always worked hard to achieve good results in long-distance running because he knew he had no other advantages. His academic performance was poor, and he couldn’t succeed in anything else. He had been criticized by his family since childhood.
It was only once, when he finished third in a race, and his father praised him with a simple “Well done.”
That was the first time he had been praised, and since then, every time he competed in a race, he pushed himself to the limit because he wanted to be praised again.
He seemed to have real talent, and with diligent training, his long-distance running results kept improving until Mo Yi appeared and took away his first place!
So, he always looked at Mo Yi unfavorably. Because Mo Yi took away his chance to be praised again.
But was it really like that?
Was he running just to be praised?
The first time he participated in a race, not knowing what result he would achieve, he still ran as hard as ever.
That’s because he enjoyed the feeling!
It was as if, as long as he was fast enough, he could merge with the wind, that feeling of rushing forward, running for himself!
His footsteps kept going, the distance ahead of him getting farther and farther away.
But Ma Yong’s fierce expression gradually disappeared from his face, and he no longer even looked at the distance between him and Mo Yi, just fully immersed himself in this long-distance race.
He felt as if he had once again experienced the feeling he had when he first started practicing running.
When the race ended, Mo Yi undoubtedly took first place and immediately wanted to show off the medal to his partner.
But when he looked around, he didn’t see Bai Cheng anywhere. When he started running, Bai Cheng was still there, cheering him on with enthusiasm. How come he disappeared in the blink of an eye, not even watching his race?
Feeling disappointed, a logistics student brought him the phone he had left with them before the race. Mo Yi saw an unread message on the screen, immediately opened it, and saw that it was from Bai Cheng, asking him to come to the locker room.
Why would he go to the locker room at this time?
Mo Yi couldn’t understand, but he obediently went anyway.
At this moment, during the bustling sports event, most people were on the field, and the locker room, previously used as a preparation room, was empty.
Mo Yi looked at the empty locker room in confusion. Just as he took out his phone to call Bai Cheng, he was suddenly hugged from behind.
The familiar scent made him stop struggling. Then, he was pulled into a corner and pressed against the wall. Bai Cheng, with a strong demeanor, leaned in for a passionate kiss.
With the youthfulness and vigor of the sports event around them, and the person he liked shining so brightly, Bai Cheng couldn’t resist the urge to kiss him.
The pure and intense love of young people infected Mo Yi, and he responded eagerly. The two of them kissed passionately, unwilling to part for a moment.
Until suddenly, there was a “thud” sound, interrupting the intimate moment between the two.
Mo Yi lifted his head and saw Ma Yong standing dumbfounded at the doorway, having accidentally bumped into a shelf.
“You, you two…” Ma Yong was at a loss for words, looking awkward and not knowing what to say.
Bai Cheng, on the other hand, was straightforward, wrapping his arm around Mo Yi’s shoulder and saying casually, “What’s wrong? Haven’t seen a couple before?”
Mo Yi also nodded confidently.
“Saw… saw it.” Ma Yong blushed, stuttering. He thought to himself, same-sex relationships are relatively rare.
But Bai Cheng and Mo Yi’s casual attitude still impressed him.
He had come to talk to Mo Yi about something, but he didn’t expect to stumble upon this scene, leaving him unsure whether to come in or go out.
But since he had already interrupted them, Ma Yong still wanted to finish what he came for. So, after taking a deep breath, he looked at Mo Yi and said earnestly, “Mo Yi, I came to tell you, I’m impressed. You’re really amazing!”
Mo Yi smiled satisfactorily at the words. He knew he was amazing!
Then, Ma Yong’s expression became somewhat awkward again. After stammering for a while, he said, “I’m sorry, it was all my fault before. My mind was messed up.”
“It’s okay to report to the school. Can you just report me alone? I was the one leading them, don’t report my brothers, okay? If you agree, I’ll do anything!”
Anything!
Upon hearing this, Bai Cheng felt extremely dissatisfied, his eyes dark and gloomy as he looked at the young man in front of him, as if assessing something. Then he sneered, “What can you do? You’re useless.”
His little puppy wants something he can’t give, so what’s the use of this wild man’s help.
Mo Yi saw that Ma Yong was sincerely repentant, having already endured a beating and now admitting his fault willingly, so he decided not to pursue the matter further. He shook his head and said, “Forget it. As long as you know you were wrong in the head. Fill in the gaps and start anew!”
Hearing this, Ma Yong knew they weren’t going to pursue the matter further and finally relaxed, feeling even more grateful to Mo Yi.
Thinking about how he had been misled before and almost caused a disaster, he couldn’t help but remind Mo Yi, “Mo Yi, be careful of Bai Xiuming.”
