When Tong Qiao saw the woman holding the hand of the fat boy, she couldn't sit still anymore. She tugged at Lu Ziqian's little hand and said, "Let's go."
Lu Ziqian shook his head and said, "No."
"It's cowardly to let others bully you without fighting back, but it's also wrong to fight back. However, we can fight back in other ways. Do you want to fight back?"
Lu Ziqian's interest was piqued. He looked at Tong Qiao with sparkling eyes and said, "Yes."
"What do you think?" Tong Qiao pointed at the mother and son who were already standing on the field and said, "They're also participating. Do you think they'll explode with anger if we stand next to them and beat them?"
Lu Ziqian nodded excitedly, but when he saw Tong Qiao's belly, his little face darkened again. "You're pregnant, so you can't participate."
"It's okay." Tong Qiao reached out and ruffled Lu Ziqian's hair. "I have no problem fighting with you every day. What's the big deal about running a few steps?"
Lu Ziqian was still hesitant.
"Or do you have no confidence in yourself? Do you think we can't beat them?" Tong Qiao began to provoke him. At this time, she had already forgotten her promise to Aunt Lin. She just wanted to avenge Lu Ziqian.
"No way. We're definitely better than them."
"Then let's go. Trust me, even if we're pregnant, we'll still beat them. They'll be so angry that they'll smoke from their seven orifices."
Lu Ziqian was still a child after all. He couldn't resist provocation and temptation. He immediately nodded and put his little hand in Tong Qiao's palm. The two of them went on the stage together and stood on the right side of the fat boy.
When the woman saw Tong Qiao, anger immediately appeared on her face. She said in a mocking voice, "How dare you come up here with a big belly and make a fool of yourself. People these days really don't have any self-awareness."
Tong Qiao rubbed her round belly and said indifferently, "Your body of fat is probably heavier than the child in my belly, right? It's not certain who's going to be the one to embarrass themselves. Take it easy later, don't shake off the flesh on your body. "
The woman was so angry that her face turned red. She hated it when people called her fat. She glared at Tong Qiao for a long time but couldn't say a word.
When the teacher handed out the red cloth, she saw that Tong Qiao was pregnant. She could tell at a glance that she was seven or eight months pregnant. She smiled and said, "You're so pregnant. It's better for you not to participate in this kind of activity."
Tong Qiao smiled. "Teacher, it's fine. I often exercise at home, and it's not a big activity. I can do it."
"Teacher, if she wants to participate, then let her participate. Isn't this also an expression of love for the child? Otherwise, it would be so pitiful for her child to watch from the side. "The fat boy's mother said sarcastically.
The teacher hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Tong Qiao was very insistent, she didn't forget to remind her when she handed the red cloth over. "Then you guys should slow down. The most important thing is to participate. Rankings and whatnot are not important."
"Okay." Tong Qiao nodded and handed the red cloth to Lu Ziqian. "Little devil, you tie it up. I can't squat down."
Lu Ziqian obediently took the red cloth, but his brows were tightly knitted. He really wanted to help Tong Qiao, but he didn't know how to tie it up. He didn't even know how to tie his shoelaces.
The teacher reacted and hurriedly said, "Let me do it."
Lu Ziqian's face immediately revealed a sweet smile. "Thank you, teacher."
Soon, the ten pairs of members were ready.
Before they started, Tong Qiao extended her fist to Lu Ziqian. "Little devil, do your best. Don't embarrass me."
Lu Ziqian raised his little fist and bumped Tong Qiao's fist. Unexpectedly, he didn't argue with Tong Qiao. Instead, he said warmly, "It's okay if you don't win. You must protect the baby in your belly."
Tong Qiao's heart warmed. She couldn't help but raise her hand to pinch Lu Ziqian's smooth little face. "Kid, when did you learn how to be sentimental?"
Lu Ziqian touched his little face that was pinched by Tong Qiao with a look of disgust. He said with a straight face, "You're so annoying. How many times have I told you not to pinch my face?"
Tong Qiao chuckled. The smile in her eyes was brighter than the sun. "Little brat, you change your face so quickly. But I'm more used to it."
Lu Ziqian was speechless. He felt awkward.
At this moment, the teacher started to shout the password. "Everyone, get to your positions …"
Lu Ziqian hurriedly tugged at Tong Qiao's arm.
"What's wrong?" Tong Qiao asked.
Lu Ziqian waved at Tong Qiao. "Come closer."
Tong Qiao saw Lu Ziqian's anxious and mysterious expression. She held her belly and tilted her head slightly. "What?"
"Listen to my password later. When I shout one, we'll move our feet together. When I shout two, we'll move our feet apart."
Tong Qiao's eyes flashed with admiration, but it was too late. The teacher had already shouted the start of the competition.
The two of them tacitly moved their feet together. The first step was smooth, and they followed Lu Ziqian's password. After a few steps, they got used to it. Tong Qiao snatched the right to shout the password and sped up. The two of them slowly turned from walking to jogging.
Some parents and their children fell together after a few steps because their steps were not in sync.
However, there were also parents and children who had good chemistry. Two pairs of father and son ran in front of Tong Qiao and Lu Ziqian. There was also a pair of mother and son who were on par with them. This pair of mother and son were the chubby boy and his mother.
Tong Qiao did not expect them to have such chemistry. She listened carefully and heard them shout, "Meat, fish."
When they shouted for meat, they moved their legs together. When they shouted for fish, they moved their legs apart.
Tong Qiao was speechless. How much did these two like to eat meat?
Seeing that they were about to reach the finish line, Tong Qiao sped up. Only the top three of each group could participate in the semi-finals. Two pairs of father and son teams had already reached the finish line. They could not lose to this chubby woman.
The woman was also anxious. When she was anxious, she panicked and her steps were messed up. Seeing that the two of them were about to fall, she deliberately fell towards Tong Qiao. In an instant, she knocked down Tong Qiao and Lu Ziqian. After falling down, she immediately helped her son up and ran to the finish line.
Tong Qiao wanted to get up and continue running, but her belly was too big. She got up slowly and could only watch as the woman reached the finish line.
Lu Ziqian did not care about the result. He only looked at Tong Qiao's belly worriedly. "Tong Qiao, are you okay?"
Tong Qiao was so angry that she gritted her teeth. "I'm fine. She must have knocked us down on purpose. Hmph, she's too despicable."
"Lu Ziqian's mother, are you okay?" The teacher ran over with a pale face.
Tong Qiao did not know what to say. She smiled and shook her head. "I'm fine."
The teacher instantly heaved a sigh of relief. She squatted down and untied the red cloth on Tong Qiao and Lu Ziqian's feet. Then, she considerately helped Tong Qiao to the side to rest.
Tong Qiao sat down. Her breathing was still very heavy. It was obvious that she was still angry.
Lu Ziqian wanted to comfort Tong Qiao. He wanted to say that it did not matter if they won or lost. He was happy that she could accompany him to the parent-child activity. However, he was afraid that Tong Qiao would say that he was being too emotional. Also, he felt that it was very awkward to talk to Tong Qiao like that. After hesitating for a long time, he did not say anything in the end.
