Chapter 950: What's Your Angle?
When the students saw that Connor had successfully surpassed Fergus, they were all dumbfounded. Their mouths were wide open in shock.
No one expected Connor to actually overtake Fergus.
Fergus looked at Connor’s back with an extremely ugly expression. However, he was powerless. No matter how hard Fergus tried, he could not catch up to Connor.
Finally, Connor crossed the finish line in first place.
The number on the timer froze at 10.03 seconds!
Connor’s results this time had broken the record that Porthampton University had maintained for many years.
When the students on the field heard the announcement, they instantly burst into deafening cheers.
Although many people felt that Connor’s results were unbelievable, most of them still admired Connor from the bottom of their hearts. No matter what, Connor had obtained such results under everyone’s gaze. There was no way to lie about these results.
Previously, many people had doubted Connor, but his results instantly broke everyone’s doubts.
Fergus looked at Connor’s back alone, his heart filled with endless confusion and anger. He felt that the cheers that Connor received should have belonged to him, but now, Connor had snatched them away.
On the other side, the students in Connor’s class surrounded Connor and began to cheer his name.
Connor’s face also revealed a happy smile. This might be the first time Connor was treated in such a way since he entered the Porthampton University.
At this moment, Eunice walked to Connor’s side and reminded him softly. “Connor, do you want to participate in the 800 meter race? If you don’t want to attend, you don’t have to…”
There was less than half an hour left before the 800m group competition began, if Connor still wanted to participate, he would have to report to the venue.
However, Connor had just broken the school’s 100-meter record, so Eunice felt that it would be fine if Connor did not participate in the 800-meter race.
“Connor, it’s best if you don’t go…”
“That’s right. You’re already the hero of our class now. There’s no need for you to participate in the 800-meter race!”
All the students in the class were also persuading Connor not to participate.
Connor hesitated for a moment before speaking softly to Eunice. “Since I’m already here, I’ll try it out!”
“Then can you do it? Your 100m sprint record is already so good. If you don’t do well in the 800-meter race, you might be laughed at…”
Eunice was very worried about Connor.
“It’s fine. I’m still full of energy. Don’t worry!”
Connor chuckled and then walked away.
Eunice hesitated for a moment before following him.
…
After Connor finished the 100m sprint, he went straight to the 800-meter race. Many people felt that Connor might have used up a lot of his stamina, so it was impossible for him to get a good result in the 800-meter race. Even Fergus felt that Connor might not even make it to the final.
However, no one expected Connor to not only enter the finals, but also break the school’s record again and win the 800-meter race.
After the 800-meter race, Connor was like a superhero in everyone’s eyes.
However, this was only the beginning. Connor then participated in the high jump and long jump!
In these two events, Connor restrained himself and did not break the school’s record, but he still won the championship!
This time, the Porthampton University’s sports meet was like Connor’s personal event. From the opening ceremony to the sports meet competitions, Connor’s performance was incredible in all fronts.
When it came to those who had previously looked down on and mocked Connor learned of this news, their hearts were even more shocked.
This sports meet made Connor’s name known to everyone in Porthampton University. People could be heard talking about Connor almost everywhere.
After the first day of the sports meet, Dominic, Spencer, Lindsy, and Tamia tried to look for Connor so they could celebrate outside the campus. However, the four of them found that Connor had disappeared. They didn’t know where he had gone.
Lindsy naturally had a lot of questions in her heart to ask Connor, but in the end, she gave up because she could not find Connor.
At this time, Connor had already arrived at Rachel’s dormitory alone and was quietly waiting for her to return.
Originally, Connor planned to question Rachel after the sports meet ended. However, he felt that there were too many students at the sports meet, so if his conversation with Rachel were to be overheard by others, it would be troublesome. He decided that it was better to talk about these things in Rachel’s dormitory.
Because Rachel never liked to lock the door, Connor easily entered the room.
Connor waited in the dormitory for about half an hour before Rachel, who was wearing a red dress, finally returned to the dormitory.
Rachel was the host of the school sports meet, so she had a lot of things to do. At this time, she also looked tired.
When Rachel entered the room and was about to take a good rest, she suddenly saw Connor sitting on the sofa. She couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment and then asked softly, “Connor, how did you get in?”
“You didn’t lock the door.”
“Oh.”
Rachel gently nodded, after which she smiled and said, “You were in the limelight at the school sports meet today. Are there many young girls pursuing you? Why didn’t you go on a date with those girls and instead come to my place?”
Connor was not in the mood to joke with Rachel, so he got straight to the point. “What do you think? What’s your angle?”
“What did I do to you?”
Rachel’s tone carried a trace of confusion in it.
“Alright, stop pretending with me. You were the one who asked me to help invite the sponsors over, but you leaked this to the school. What do you want?”
Connor seemed to be somewhat angry as he shouted at Rachel.
“How did you know that I leaked this news?”
Rachel asked Connor with a smile.
“Only Thomas Morgan, you and I know about this. Thomas wouldn’t leak this matter. I know Thomas’s character very well, so now you’re the only one left who could’ve leaked this information.”
Connor analyzed in a low voice.
Rachel looked at Connor in front of her and lightly smiled. “You’re right. I was the one who leaked this news!”
“Then why did you do it?”
Connor asked in confusion.
