Mother Xu's sympathy was lost on Sheng Ning'an, who didn't take the matter to heart.
That evening, she still dragged her deskmate out for a run.
After a period of exercise, her deskmate had progressed from barely managing half a lap to now being able to keep up with Sheng Ning'an for more than half a lap, although still exhausted afterward, lying there like a dead dog.
Still, there was a noticeable improvement in endurance.
Sheng Ning'an believed that with continued perseverance, running a full lap would soon be no problem.
Perhaps it was because they had run too hard the previous night, but the next morning, her deskmate's legs were still trembling while walking.
Upon entering the classroom and seeing Sheng Ning'an, the first thing she said was, "I can't do it anymore. No matter what, I'm not going running tonight. Just let me rest for one day, just one. After I've rested, we can continue the day after tomorrow."
