Every woman deserves to be respected.

"What is going on? Wang Xiaoming actually made it here!" The US coach looked at the suddenly appearing Wang Xiaoming in utter shock.

He certainly did not believe that Wang Xiaoming could remain unmoved when faced with such an alluring temptation like Carly.

Nor did he think that Wang Xiaoming would finish up in a rush within such a short amount of time.

After all, they were both men; how could anyone face such temptation and find a single round sufficient!

Could it only be said that his luck was simply too good?

However, the US coach looked coldly at the arriving Wang Xiaoming.

So what if he made it just in time at the very last second? So what if he was able to step onto the competition stage?

He believed that Carly would definitely drain Wang Xiaoming completely dry.

That way, even if Wang Xiaoming stepped onto the track, he wouldn't have the physical stamina to win the gold medal in the 1500-meter event!

Contrary to what the US coach was thinking, audiences from various countries at the venue all gasped in astonishment.

Especially the Chinese audience; upon seeing Wang Xiaoming's appearance, an inexplicable sense of security welled up from the depths of their hearts.

It was as if as long as Wang Xiaoming was in a competition, there would definitely be no problems.

Yet, at the same time, a question arose in their minds.

Where on earth had Wang Xiaoming been for all this time?

Observant individuals noticed that Wang Xiaoming and the US female athlete had emerged one after the other.

Immediately, some people boldly speculated: Could Brother Ming really have spent a romantic night with the tall, blonde-haired, blue-eyed exotic beauty?

As soon as this thought emerged, it instantly sparked a massive wave of discussion online!

"I'm telling you, Brother Ming didn't go off with that foreign beauty to do *that*, did he? Hehehe."

"Oh crap, the period jokes are here!"

"You guys upstairs are all talents!"

"Bring on the jokes, bring on the jokes! If there are no jokes, I'm going to riot!"

"Truth be to told, Brother Ming rushed over in such a hurry, will it affect his performance in the match?"

Although many people were joking online, some still raised the critical question right away.

Rushing against time like this and arriving at the arena at the very last moment was a huge test of an athlete's physical stamina, psychological state, and mental resilience.

Could Wang Xiaoming pull off a miracle this time as well?

Yet, the netizens of today were no longer like the netizens of a decade or two ago.

Not a single person went to blame Wang Xiaoming, nor did anyone reproach him.

Instead, they all showed understanding, making all kinds of jokes to excuse him.

"It doesn't matter anyway. He has already won so many gold medals before; I think that's truly enough!"

"That's right, that's right! Brother Ming has participated in so many events. Who knows how tired he is? Only he knows!"

"Yeah, he has brought glory to the country for so long. What's wrong with taking a little break!"

"Even if he gets no result this time, he is still my god!"

"Brother Ming, take a rest. You're really too tired!"

"Take a break. You've already done enough!"

"That's right, you have to consider your future career!"

Such remarks fermented rapidly online like a tornado tearing through a parking lot.

In just a single minute, it seemed everyone was discussing this matter.

Even high-ranking leaders watching from the Ministry of State Security felt deeply moved by Wang Xiaoming.

The arrogant image he previously projected was instantly swept away; right now, Wang Xiaoming's stature appeared towering and magnificent in his heart.

At this moment, he had transformed into a young man who had brought glory to the country, exhausted to the core, yet still pressing forward indomitably.

"Such a young man is precisely what our society needs the most right now!"

Looking at the slightly exhausted Wang Xiaoming on the screen, the senior leader nodded with satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiao beside him chimed in with a mouthful of nonsense: "I watched this kid grow up; he has been hardworking and ambitious ever since he was a child!"

"Right!" The senior leader suddenly turned around and asked, "How are the arrangements for his sister's condition? What do the top doctors say?"

Mentioning this, a trace of reluctance flashed across Chen Xiao's face before he shook his head, "There isn't a very good solution..."

"Sigh." The senior leader also let out a sigh and shook his head: "Such a tragic child. Send him a message and tell him not to push himself so hard. He has already done enough!"

Down to the smallest streets and alleys, every conversation happening among ordinary people shared a single name: Wang Xiaoming!

Wang Xiaoming seemed to have become a household synonym known to all.

Class 2, Grade 3 of Wangwang Primary School was currently watching the Olympic games together.

Coincidentally, there was also a student named Wang Xiaoming in their class.

However, compared to the Wang Xiaoming on the screen, this Wang Xiaoming was lazy, neglected his homework, loved to sleep in class, and had always been the classic negative example used by the teacher.

"Wang Xiaoming, I won't call you out today. Take a good look at what Wang Xiaoming over there is doing, and look at what you are doing!"

"Think carefully about what kind of person you want to become in the future!"

Looking at the respected Wang Xiaoming on the screen, little Wang Xiaoming's eyes were full of stars.

For a moment, it seemed as though something had awakened deep within little Wang Xiaoming's heart!

The overwhelming majority of the audience—whether at the venue, in front of screens, or on the internet—all felt a pang of sympathy for Wang Xiaoming. Everyone felt that as for this competition, they might as well just forget it.

After all, under such exhaustion, how could anyone still find the mental capacity to think about a gold medal?

Therefore, everyone had practically written off this 1500-meter race, hoping only that Wang Xiaoming could get a proper rest.

Meanwhile, over at the US team's seating area, the coach felt that victory in this race was already in the bag.

Not only him, but the other team members thought so too.

Especially the US athlete who was already standing in the middle of the arena, preparing for the race.

They all knew their coach's plan, and he refused to believe that under such circumstances, Wang Xiaoming could have any stamina left.

After all, who could resist an alluring creature like Carly when laid before them?

Thinking of this, he harbored intense resentment toward Wang Xiaoming.

He hadn't even tasted Carly's charms yet, and instead, this Chinese man had gotten there first!

"In that case, we will definitely take the gold in the 1500m this time!" The US coach clenched his fists, feeling intensely excited inside.

Then he looked at Carly and said, "You did a great job this time!"

To his surprise, Carly flushed slightly and shook her head, "Coach, actually, I didn't do anything."

"What?" The coach was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Oh, haha, it seems this Wang Xiaoming is a guy who likes to take the initiative!"

Who would have thought Carly would shake her head again? "No, Coach. Actually, we didn't do anything at all."

The coach was startled: "What do you mean by that? You didn't do anything? Then what did the two of you do for two hours?"

Carly softly replied, "He said my body had some issues and performed something on me called... bone-setting..."

Recalling further, Carly added, "And he also said..."

"What did he say?!" The coach grew anxious!

"He said... every woman deserves to be respected..."

In an instant, all the US athletes present froze in place, their gazes locked tightly onto the coach.

Right at this moment, Wang Xiaoming, not far away, also noticed the situation over here.

Passing by on his way to the starting line, he simply smiled at the US coach.

Then, he gave a casual wave.

To outsiders, it looked just like a friendly greeting to the US coach...
