Chapter 618: Breaking Records

The camera crew did not shift their cameras away from Gu Mang. It was the first time they had ever seen anyone achieve such a brilliant time on a four-kilometer race so arrogantly.

The referee was in a daze as Gu Mang took off the tracker from her wrist and handed it to him. Inwardly, he was wondering if the rumors about her being last place were not true. She appeared to be fine after the four-kilometer run. Just how sick is her stamina?! How did those rumors about her being a hopeless cadet even come about?

Everyone’s astonished gazes were on her tall and slim figure as she made her way back to Zheng Miao and the others with her hands in her pockets. While walking past the front of the podium, she turned her face slightly and glanced at her fiancé, who was also looking at her. The moment their gazes locked, she lifted an eyebrow slightly and curled her lips into a wicked and unbridled smirk. Lu Chengzhou curled his fingers as he watched her with his pitch-black eyes.

“As expected of our big boss! Look at how cool she is!” sighed Qin Fang while nudging He Yidu with his arm. Although He Yidu did not show much of a reaction, in his heart, his respect for Gu Mang had risen a little. He then shifted his gaze to Lu Chengzhou, who was sitting in the middle of the instructor’s stage. Brother Cheng sure has a good eye for women. He’s snagged her for himself.

Meanwhile, Principal Ren and Yang Tianming were sitting dumbly in their seats, completely stupefied by Gu Mang’s incredible time. It was then that Principal Ren suddenly remembered his conversation with Elder Tan about her and how she had scored consecutive zeros on tests and exams for the past decade. I should’ve realized it earlier! How could our top scholar be bad at sports?!

…

Zheng Miao and the rest stood in stunned silence as they watched Gu Mang slowly walk over to them. Someone broke the silence upon realizing something. The boy’s voice trembled as he stammered, “I-I think our class is in first place…”

No matter how the other classes performed, they could not beat Gu Mang’s fantastic results. She alone had carried the entire traditional chinese medicine department to first place. Not last place, but first!

Zheng Miao’s heart thumped wildly against her chest as she recalled what her roommate had said before the start of the race.

I’ll win this competition for you.

…

Meanwhile, on the viewing platform, Tang Xiaoxiao grabbed Li Mu’s arm ecstatically. “Look, Instructor Li! Gu Mang came in first!”

Frozen in his seat with his jaw slacked, Li Mu stared dumbly at the leaderboard, unable to form a coherent sentence. It took him a while to recover before he could speak. His throat was parched as he uttered, “S-She broke the base’s record…”

Tang Xiaoxiao, however, could not be bothered to hear what he had to say, for she had left the stands to run over to Gu Mang’s side.

…

The race finally came to an end some ten minutes later with the leaderboard showing the updated rankings. In first place was the traditional chinese medicine department. Their total time was six minutes faster than that of the law school which was in second place.T he difference was so huge it could not be closed. The difference in time between the other classes varied from as little as half a minute to two minutes.

Even the host, Song Han, could not help but be somewhat agitated when she read Gu Mang’s name. The two first met in the Middle East when she was there to do media coverage. It was then that she found out about Gu Mang’s superb medical skills. She had no idea that the girl had such stamina as well, breaking records as if they were nothing.

Sang Xue’s face darkened as she stared at the leaderboard. Gu Mang had finished the four-kilometer run in less than half the time she had taken. Equally in disbelief, the girl next to her said, “That’s impossible. Even if she performed extraordinarily well earlier, there’s no way she could complete the race that fast…”

Sang Xue frowned when she noticed how Gu Mang wasn’t even winded after finishing the race. After a moment of contemplation, she took another look at Gu Mang, then walked toward the referee.
