Marathon: My Girlfriend Waited at the Finish Line, but I Went to an Internet Cafe Midway

A girl in a wedding dress stood there holding a bouquet of flowers.

She wanted to give her boyfriend a romantic surprise.

The scene made everyone around her envious.

With all eyes on her, the girl in the wedding dress called her boyfriend.

"What? You didn't finish the race... You've really let me down!"

Tears streamed down her face as she broke down in despair.

At that very moment, in an internet cafe,

Ye Yao, who had ditched the race midway, clutched his phone and shouted anxiously, "Hey, hey, just let me explain..."

He'd meant to slack off, grab a taxi, and sneak to the finish line without anyone noticing. Then he'd be done with the marathon he'd promised his girlfriend he'd run.

Who could have guessed his girlfriend wanted to surprise him by proposing?

What was he supposed to do now?!

"Ding! A System has arrived for you. Please remember to claim it!"

Ye Yao: ???
