Shen Ning was optimistic, convinced her dad's long legs would surely carry her to victory—they were certain to come in first.
However, she had forgotten about her own short legs.
Three-legged races required both partners to run together, and one person running fast was pointless.
Watching her friends pass her one by one, Miss Shen was so anxious her eyes bulged.
"Dad, let's run faster," Miss Shen, unwilling to admit defeat, gritted her teeth in pursuit, only to disrupt their previously steady rhythm, falling face-first into the dirt, which really frustrated her.
It turned out that Shen Yan and Shen Tan's team was perfectly coordinated, taking first place. Mom and brother winning first place meant Ningbao had won as well, and that consoled the little girl somewhat.
