Fantasy: The Second Miss Said She Was Ordinary

Chapter 701 Going to the 21st Century (14)

Su Man assumed Qin Youyou was exhausted, so she lowered her guard and prepared to welcome her victory.

But just a hundred meters from the finish line, something unexpected happened.

Qin Youyou, who had been left behind, suddenly increased her speed!

The distance between the two people rapidly decreased, decreased...

Just as Su Man realized that she wanted to increase her speed, it was too late.

Qin Youyou flashed past her, giving her a playful tongue-out smile.

Su Man stared in disbelief. After a moment, a roar of anger echoed in her mind: Damn it!

In the next instant, Qin Qian had already rushed in front of her, and the distance between them was rapidly increasing!

【Holy crap!!!】

What happened?! How could Qin Qian be so fast all of a sudden?!

[That starting speed! Is it a 100-meter sprint?!]

Was she holding back her strength just now?!

This comeback...it's so dramatic!

Meanwhile, at the national team training base.

Head coach Wang of the swimming team was holding a thermos and watching the live broadcast with a smug look on his face: "Look! I told you this girl is a diamond in the rough! Her physical fitness... is amazing!"

Before he could finish speaking, the office door was suddenly pushed open with a bang!

Coach Sun, the track and field team's famous "Iron Lady," rushed in like a whirlwind, pointing at Qin Qian's sprinting figure on the screen, her voice trembling:

"Old Wang! This girl! This Qin Qian! She's going to be on our track and field team! That explosiveness! That stride frequency! That endurance in the later stages! She's a natural sprinter! No! She's a middle- and long-distance running prodigy! I'm going to have her!"

Coach Wang nearly spat out his tea: "Old Sun, are you even being reasonable! I was the one who spotted her first! I was the one who told you about her, she's a swimming prodigy! Don't try to take her from me!"

"Swimming?! Haha, the swimming team already has enough talent. Don't you know what the status of sprinting is? Putting this promising talent in your swimming team is a waste of his potential!" Coach Sun retorted.

"You're talking nonsense! Swimming is also an Olympic sport!"

"I don't care! I'm going to take this person! I'm calling headquarters right now!"

The two veteran coaches argued heatedly on the spot, almost coming to blows. They had no choice but to bring in several other veteran figures to judge the situation.

"Old Zhu, Old Peng, what do you think of this girl? Wouldn't she be more suitable for my swimming team?"

"Hehe, sprinting is clearly more likely to bring glory to the country!"

Coach Zhu and Coach Peng huddled together to look at the phone and burst out laughing.

"Heh, a middle-aged girl on a variety show, is she really worth all this fighting over?"

"Yeah, you two have become obsessed with finding good seedlings lately, haven't you?"

"Once they're adults, even if they run fast and swim well, their potential for development is almost zero."

“Even if you wanted her, it wouldn’t be proper to just bring her in directly. We can’t go through back channels now. All the good candidates have to go through layers of selection. Besides, she’s too old.”

"Don't jump to conclusions yet." This time, Coach Sun and Coach Wang said in unison, "There are other test items later, so watch them carefully before you make a decision."

"Alright, alright, I don't have much to do today anyway, I'll just take a look."

Meanwhile, on the island, Qin Youyou had already crossed the finish line first with an absolute advantage.

She even had the energy to turn around effortlessly at the finish line, smiled slightly at the camera, and her breathing was as steady as if she had just taken a walk.

[Champion! Qin Qian!]

[Su Man's expression...she's questioning the meaning of life!]

[Song Zhi: Who am I? Where am I?]

Su Man crossed the line second, her face ashen, her chest heaving violently.

She looked at the composed Qin Youyou in disbelief.

This girl's physical strength is ridiculously good, but upon closer reflection, her speed is not actually faster than human limits.

If she weren't wary of attracting too much attention and fearing it would draw the attention of the Heavenly Dao of this plane, she could easily leave this mortal far behind with just a thought.

Su Man understood this point and was happy that Qin Youyou had won first place.

Well, anyway, this body will be mine sooner or later.

The more famous she becomes, the better.

Song Zhi arrived third, exhausted, and filled with nothing but admiration for Qin Youyou.

"Qianqian, you're amazing!"

The host excitedly announced the results: "Congratulations to Qianqian for winning first place! Manman for second place! Azhi for third place! Now, please choose your male partners in order of ranking!"

All eyes were once again focused on Qin Qian.

Gu Buchen subconsciously straightened his back, his eyes burning.

Lin Hao tried his best to hint with winks and gestures.

Xiao Chen continued to try to minimize his presence.

Qin Qian's gaze slowly swept over the three men.

Xiao Chen came to see her this morning.

She already knew that Lin Hao, due to his low popularity and unbalanced mentality, might make a move on Gu Buchen, the handsome man in his eyes, today.

Although she didn't care much about the vacancy left by Gu Buchen's crazy display, protecting innocent humans from the Star Clan's harm was her duty.

So, amidst everyone's expectant gazes, Qin Qian smiled slightly and pointed—at Gu Buchen.

"Mr. Gu, let's be in the same group this time."

Quiet.

The whole audience fell into silence.

Gu Buchen was stunned at first, then a huge surge of joy welled up in his heart.

Qianqian, have you finally seen his feelings?

Sure enough, hard work pays off.

He tried hard to maintain his composure, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up. He strode over to Qin Qian's side, his voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible excitement: "Okay!"

Lin Hao's smile froze on his face, a hint of malice and urgency flashing deep in his eyes.

They robbed me again!

If he can't hold onto Qin Qian as a springboard, it seems... he has no other choice.

Su Man was delighted to see Qin Qian choose Gu Buchen.

Good, that idiot Lin Hao will definitely go after Gu Buchen.

Then she can take advantage of Lin Hao stirring up trouble and deal directly with Qin Qian!

Island group activities...

Isn't it normal for two people to die, or rather, for two bodies to be discarded?

The perfect scenario in their imagination was that they would pretend to be Su Man and Lin Hao falling into the water, while actually putting on the identities of Qin Qian and Gu Buchen to "rescue" them. In the end, the rescue would fail, Su Man and Lin Hao would drown, and they would successfully escape unscathed, perhaps even gaining a reputation for being heroes.

I'm so happy!

But how to escape the surveillance cameras is a problem.

Perhaps, taking them down one by one is also a method. First, wait for Lin Hao to put on Gu Buchen's skin, and then use Gu Buchen to lure Qin Qian into the trap...

One plan after another flashed through Su Man's mind in an instant.

The host's voice rang out: "Please, Manman, the second contestant, choose the male teammate you wish to team up with."

Su Man smiled slightly and immediately pointed at Lin Hao.

The gazes of the two Star Clan members collided in mid-air, each seeing the hidden meaning in the other's eyes.

The remaining Song Zhi and Xiao Chen automatically formed a pair.

Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. At least he was temporarily away from Qin Qian, that great demon, and could survive a little longer.

Groups formed, the island treasure hunt adventure officially begins!
