The days when I retired with the queen of music

Chapter 368 Slim’s Marathon Journey
"Two kilometers?!"

Song Xiaoqin, who had just returned from the capital, looked surprised, "How can a child as young as Xianxian be able to run two kilometers?! If adults don't exercise enough, two kilometers will be a bit difficult, right?!"

Lu Anzhi asked: "Are you struggling?"

Song Xiaoqin glanced at Lu An with disdain and said, "You're kidding, I do exercise regularly. Two kilometers is a piece of cake for me. I won't even struggle if you struggle."

Lu An smiled and said nothing more.

Zhang Suxin said: "It's not necessary to run down two kilometers. The children are just participating, and the parents are still following. If the children can't run anymore, the parents can hold them. The important thing is to participate."

When Xianxian heard Zhang Suxin's words, she immediately shouted: "No! Xianxian doesn't want her mother to hold her! Xianxian wants to run by herself! Xianxian can run Marala!"

"It's a marathon."

Zhang Suxin corrects the towpath.

"Xianxian smiled."

Zhang Suxin added: "Besides, mom can't run with you. She's pregnant with a baby and it's not convenient for her to run. Let dad run with you."

"it is good!"

Xianxian said, then thought about it and said to Lu Anzhi, "Dad can't hug me, I have to run away by myself!"

"Okay, run by yourself."

Lu Anzhi agreed.

But Song Xiaoqin smiled and said: "Then you will suffer a lot."

Xianxian became more energetic and said again: "I want to win the first prize!"

Lu An said: "Okay, okay, get the first prize."

Xianxian smiled happily.

A night of silence.The next morning, Lu Anzhi did not send Xianxian to kindergarten early.According to the time specified by the kindergarten, they only need to arrive at the riverside park near the kindergarten at 09:30.

However, they had breakfast at home early to avoid eating too late and getting cold and upset when they went to participate in the toddler marathon.

Soon it was nine o'clock, and Lu Anzhi drove Zhang Suxin, Song Xiaoqin and Xianxian out together.Although today's chaperone was Lu Anzhi, it was Xianxian's first time participating in a marathon. Zhang Suxin also wanted to see it, while Song Xiaoqin followed to join in the fun.

Song Xiaoqin wore a mask and sunglasses. She was a little worried about being recognized when she starred in "The Singer Sets Sail" earlier this year.After all, those present today are not unrelated passers-by.Song Xiaoqin was afraid that if she was recognized by someone, it would affect Xianxian's quiet study life in the kindergarten.

But Lu Anzhi and Zhang Suxin have no such worries.

"The Singer Sets Sail" has gone too far. Nowadays, the scenes that are occasionally shown online and on TV only show Song Xiaoqin, and Lu Anzhi, the person behind the scenes, is basically invisible.Except for "The Singer Sets Sail", Lu Anzhi has not appeared in any other scenes, so few people can tell Lu Anzhi from his appearance.It is already rare for Teacher Yunyun and the student from Sanwei Bookstore to recognize Lu Anzhi.

Not to mention Zhang Suxin, she has been retired for four years. Now, the only things that remain in the memory of fans are those old songs and the new songs that appear online and in ring tones.But these songs only appear alone. People can only hear Zhang Suxin's voice, but not the person.Most people have a vague impression of Zhang Suxin's appearance. Even if they are not vague, most people would not dare to recognize someone they have not seen for four years.

Zhang Suxin went to see Lu Anzhi a year ago, but she was only slightly worried. She was afraid that the fact that she had a child would be exposed and affect Xianxian, and her parents would know about it, so she wore sunglasses and a mask. Now many netizens already know her. She and Lu Anzhi have a child, and Zhang Yuzhi and Miao Suqin have already accepted Lu Anzhi and Xianxian. What else does she have to worry about?

So these two couples appeared openly and openly in the riverside park.

The park built along the river near the kindergarten has been transformed into a large green space with lush vegetation.The roads built in the park are very wide and basically built according to highway standards.There are two rows of towering trees guarding both sides of the road. The teachers and principal of the kindergarten have arrived here early, selected the starting area, and hung a banner on the tree with the words "Boai Kindergarten Marathon" written on it.

Teachers from each class welcomed and summoned the children and their parents who came here one after another, and organized their own teams to stand up.

This team is sparse and not very neat. The teachers naturally do not have high requirements for these children and their parents, as long as they can almost stand together.

Lu Anzhi led Xianxian into the team. Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin did not follow them and stood aside to watch.The two beautiful women attracted the attention of many people. Some of their parents came with them, and the father was stared at hard by the mother several times.

"Someone is looking at you again."

Song Xiaoqin said to Zhang Suxin.

Zhang Suxin said: "Nonsense, I'm looking at you, not me. What's so good about a pregnant woman like me?"

Song Xiaoqin said: "What's wrong with pregnant women? Pregnant women are beautiful too. Look at you, except for your belly, how can you look like a pregnant woman? Oh, you are so good. You can maintain your body so well even when you are pregnant. Not only is your figure good, but also No stretch marks yet.”

Zhang Suxin said: "You also know about stretch marks."

Song Xiaoqin glanced at Zhang Suxin with her eyes hidden behind her sunglasses, but unfortunately Zhang Suxin couldn't see it.Song Xiaoqin said: "Why can't I know? Why do you think you are so powerful?"

Zhang Suxin said: "What if you are also good? Why don't you try to get pregnant? Maybe you won't have stretch marks."

"..."

Song Xiaoqin was silent for a while, and then said quietly, "You have learned badly from Lu Anzhi..."

Zhang Suxin tilted her head and glanced at Song Xiaoqin, then pursed her lips and smiled, which was a bit cute.

Song Xiaoqin didn't want to continue this topic and glanced at the crowd.There, the children were submerged under the height of their parents. In front of them, there was a kindergarten host holding a microphone and delivering the opening speech of the children's marathon.However, the children were messy, and the parents were also messy, but few people listened to the host.

Naturally, the school had already anticipated this situation. It was just going through the formalities and didn't force itself on anything.

Song Xiaoqin said: "Someone is looking at you again."

Zhang Suxin said: "It's because of you. What's so good about me, a pregnant woman?"

The topic returned to the beginning.Song Xiaoqin did not mention stretch marks again, but said: "I am wearing a mask and sunglasses, and there is nothing good to see. Look at yours, it seems that you are in the same class as Xianxian. They are almost standing together. The one next to you Is she his wife? Haha, I pulled his sleeve!"

Zhang Suxin: "..."

Song Xiaoqin added: "But this man looks quite strong, tall and thin, and a bit handsome."

Zhang Suxin said: "There is no such thing as an handsome man."

Song Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at Zhang Suxin and said, "Yes, yes, he is not as handsome as your An Zhi. You really learned a lot from Lu Anzhi. You can say such boastful words without blushing."

Zhang Suxin pursed her lips and smiled again, but said nothing.

The host in front of the crowd finally announced the rules of the competition - the road in the park is a circle, and teachers will guide them at the forks. The children have to run back around the road in the park, which is exactly two kilometers.The top three returning students will receive first, second, and third prizes, and other children will receive participation awards.

After that, all the children and parents crowded at the starting point.Song Xiaoqin watched from the side and said to Zhang Suxin: "I'll go and cheer up." Then she ran to the starting point. "Ready - run!"

After the host gave the order, the children and parents rushed out.

"Xianxian, come on!"

Song Xiaoqin called out from the outside, but there were many parents cheering for their children. Song Xiaoqin's voice was drowned in the sound waves, and Xianxian probably couldn't hear it.Song Xiaoqin had no choice but to give up shouting "come on."Then she saw several children rushing out "humming hummingly" and stopped after about ten meters. She turned around and said to the parents: "Dad, hug me!" "Mom, I'm tired, mom, hug me!"

Song Xiaoqin burst into laughter.

This funny and cute scene made many parents laugh.

And this clamoring for a hug is also contagious. Many children followed suit and started asking for a hug.

Of course, there are also tough children who always insist on running on their own.Among them is Xianxian.

The little guy ran for about ten meters "humming hummingly". He ran too hard and his speed also slowed down.Lu Anzhi followed Xianxian and asked, "Do you want daddy to hug you?"

Xianxian shook her head firmly and said, "Xianxian is not tired, just run by yourself!"

Lu Anzhi said: "Well, Xianxian is very good. She can run by herself. Then Xianxian will walk and run. When you get tired, walk for a while, walk for a while, and then run again."

When Lu Anzhi said this, Xianxian's stubbornness got up again, and she ran out for another ten meters or so.Then the little guy finally realized that he was indeed tired and started walking.

——Of course, the most important thing is that she found that she was not the only one walking, but many other children were also walking.

So Lu Anzhi walked and ran with Xianxian, and soon disappeared within sight of Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin.

"Xianxian is really amazing, so strong."

Song Xiaoqin couldn't help but praise.There are too many children here today. After they started making noise, the children in the upper class ran away early, and the children in the middle class also ran away quickly. Those who were left behind were basically the children in the small class and their parents. .

Many of these children couldn't hold on and asked for hugs.Many of them started walking early and refused to run again.Xianxian, on the other hand, runs and walks and takes steps as long as she can. She is indeed much better than other children.

Zhang Suxin said a little proudly: "Of course, Xianxian has always been strong."

Song Xiaoqin said with a smile: "But these children in the small class can only receive participation awards, right?"

At this time, Xianxian's teacher Yunyun happened to pass by Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin. When she heard Song Xiaoqin's voice, she said with a smile: "The small class was originally participating. As long as you can persist, you will win." She recognized Zhang Suxin, Say hello to Zhang Suxin.However, she still called her "Xianxian's mother" and did not reveal Zhang Suxin's name.

"Yes."

Song Xiaoqin nodded and said.

Teacher Yunyun said with a smile: "But this year, there may be children in our class who will win the first, second and third prizes. I just saw Yiyi's father carrying Yiyi and running out."

Song Xiaoqin suddenly remembered that it seemed that the parent of the child who saw her and Zhang Suxin before had put the child on his shoulders at the starting line, and then put the child down after being stopped by teacher Yunyun.As a result, the host gave the order, and not long after he and the child ran out, he picked up the child and ran away again.

Thinking of that scene, she couldn't help but want to laugh and said, "Isn't this good? This toddler marathon is actually for children to participate and feel the feelings. If he carries the child and runs like that, then what sense of participation does the child have? And? Isn’t that adults bullying children?”

Teacher Yunyun smiled helplessly and said: "We didn't expect such a situation in advance. No parents were like this before. If we had known earlier, we would have warned the parents of the children in advance. But the children will be ranked first, second, and third. I’m happy with the prize, it’s considered participation.”

Song Xiaoqin and Zhang Suxin couldn't help laughing.

The three chatted for a few more words, and then Teacher Yunyun went to do other things.

On the track of the children's marathon, the children in the upper class and the middle class have already disappeared, and the children in the small class are scattered on the road and can no longer be bunched up.

Xianxian ran hard for a while and was still ahead of the group in Xiaoban.She was so tired now that she couldn't run a step anymore and could only walk along the roadside. The smile on her face when she started from the starting line was gone. Wrinkled.

Many children were really tired and asked their parents to hold them for a while.But Xianxian refused. She was really tired, so Lu Anzhi said to her, "Let's rest on the side of the road for a while and then run again."

"do not want!"

Xianxian still refused to agree.

Lu Anzhi had no choice but to say: "But dad is tired. Dad can't run anymore."

Xianxian then said, "Okay then." She sat with Lu Anzhi on the curb for a while.

Stop and go, stop and go...

Standing at the finish line, that is, outside the starting line, Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin saw the first one to come back. As expected, it was the one who was carried on his shoulders by his father.The father was sweating profusely while running, and the little girl happily shouted, "First! First!"

The little guy did seem to have another form of participation, but many accompanying parents waiting at the finish line did not agree with this method and complained in low voices.

After a while, the children from the top class also ran back one after another.Then there are middle class and small class.Some walked back, some could run a few steps, and some could no longer walk and could only be held by their parents.

Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin waited for a long time, but did not see Lu Anzhi and Xianxian coming out, so they couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Song Xiaoqin said: "Aren't these two people lost?"

Zhang Suxin rolled her eyes at Song Xiaoqin and said, "How big is this park? And An Zhi is still here, how can you get lost?"

After a while, another child finally came over from a distance.Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin took a closer look and finally saw Xianxian.

The little guy walked away with a sad face, and Lu Anzhi followed her.Song Xiaoqin ran to the finish line and shouted: "Come on, Xianxian! Come on, Xianxian!" Teacher Yunyun and two other teachers in Xianxian's class saw Xianxian coming, and they also shouted "come on".

However, the little guy just raised his eyes and glanced at Song Xiaoqin, then continued to shrug and walk forward step by step with a frown on his face.

Song Xiaoqin called again: "Come on Xianxian! Xianxian is almost there, run two steps!"

Xianxian had no reaction.

Song Xiaoqin wanted to say something more, but Lu Anzhi, who was following Xianxian, said: "Okay, stop screaming. Xianxian ran all the way by herself and didn't let me hold her for a while. She's really tired."

When Song Xiaoqin heard what Lu Anzhi said, she stopped cheering Xianxian.

She and Zhang Suxin watched Xianxian take small steps step by step and cross the finish line.After crossing the finish line, the little guy refused to take a step. He turned back and stretched out his hand to Lu Anzhi for a hug.
