Fu Lei's father waved his hand, ”Don't worry about it He can do both the 800 meters and the 1500 meters That's all he can do anyways!”
Fu Lei rolled his eyes Who said that about their own kid?
Xiong Xiong's eyes lit up when he heard 1500 meters He quickly laid the list of names on the table and handed Fu Lei a pen ”If your father says you can do it, I'm sure you'll be fine You really are the hope of the class!”

However, Fu Lei's parents still blushed It was e!
The kids were all in Fu Lei's roo room
”Why did these kids bring a cat?” Fu Lei's father asked his wife quietly
”Maybe they are walking the cat?” She wasn't sure either
”Even a professor's cat is different” Fu Lei's father took out a cigarette but controlled himself when he remembered there were kids here
The couple could go out for a walk now They sat in their living room and stared at the cat
Fu Lei's father got up and took out the fish head and put it in front of Zheng Tan
”Here, eat!”
Zheng Tan was speechless Fathers and sons really were alike
He ignored the food and moved to a different chair
”No wonder this is a professor's cat Is this what they iven with pity?” Fu Lei's father exa Tan
This bothered Zheng Tan greatly, so he went into Fu Lei's room
The kids were listening to Fu Lei tell stories of his 'childhood' Xiong Xiong envied his experience in his village dojo
