Weekend evening.
At Tsinghua University's Zijing Playground, Qiu Ting sat on a bench nearby, watching Su Qing freely sweat it out on the court.
She didn't know much about basketball at first, but after watching a lot of Slam Dunk, and with Su Qing sometimes going to the court for inspiration, she would quietly watch from the sidelines. Su Qing would also explain some rules to Qiu Ting. Over time, Qiu Ting got a general understanding of the rules and techniques related to basketball.
"Great block!" cheers erupted from the court.
The opposing guard tried to drive to the basket, but Su Qing, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, jumped up and blocked his shot!
The out-of-control basketball was intercepted by his own team. After it went out of bounds, a quick pass was made to Su Qing. He jumped up without hesitation, caught the ball in mid-air, and then dunked!
His movements were fluid and graceful, as stylish as ever.
"Yes!"
Qiu Ting clenched her little fists happily. She didn't know why, but every time she saw Su Qing score a goal, she felt genuinely happy. Sometimes, Liu Chuanfeng from Slam Dunk would seem to overlap with Su Qing.
"Director, are we not going to continue?" a student asked.
"Phew, that's enough. You guys continue, I have something to do."
"Oh, is that your sister-in-law?" some people joked.
The term "little sister-in-law" was merely due to Qiu Ting's petite stature; however, their relationship was never definitively proven.
Su Qing smiled, noticing Qiu Ting sitting on the bench out of the corner of his eye. Without explaining, he took a towel and wiped the sweat off his body as he walked over to Qiu Ting, asking with a smile, "When did you arrive?"
Qiu Ting blinked: "It's been a while. I was planning to go back to the dorm, but I saw Brother Su playing ball here, so I stopped and watched for a while."
She handed him the sports drink, saying, "Brother Su, have some water."
"Thanks."
Su Qing didn't stand on ceremony with her, wiped her sweat, and took the Gatorade and chug it down.
"It's so hot today, Brother Su, you still came to play ball?"
"It's alright. I arrived around 4 PM and played for a little over an hour, which also helped me get some exercise," Su Qing said with a smile.
He already liked basketball, but now he likes it even more because of Slam Dunk. Most of the classmates who often play basketball on the court are Slam Dunk fans and are also very familiar with Su Qing.
"Qiu Ting, have you eaten yet?"
"No."
"Wait for me a bit, I'll go back to my dorm to take a shower first, then we can go eat together?"
"Uh-huh!"
The Zijing Playground is not far from the dormitory building, only a few minutes away. The two walked side by side, with a height difference of about 30cm, which looked quite like a father taking his daughter for a walk.
At this distance, Qiu Ting could clearly smell the sweat emanating from Su Qing.
However, it doesn't smell bad at all.
She secretly glanced at Su Qing out of the corner of her eye and found that Su Qing was also looking at her. She quickly looked away, lowered her head and pretended that nothing had happened, and continued walking forward on her own.
"Qiu Ting, are you going to wait for me at the cafeteria, or go back to the dorm first?"
She hesitated for a second: "Let's go back to the dorm first."
"Okay, I can take a shower in 20 minutes."
When they arrived at the dormitory building, the two went back to their respective dorm rooms. Now, only Qiu Ting was left in the four-person dorm room 520A. Si Si and Cui Jiaying were doing a great job as content creators on D-site, and they are now big content creators with nearly 900,000 followers.
The cramped environment of the dormitory sometimes could no longer meet their shooting needs, so they simply rented a two-bedroom apartment outside, which not only provided a more comfortable living environment but also served as their studio.
Of course, Qiu Ting had no idea whether there were any other reasons why the two went out to live together.
She has always been rather oblivious when it comes to matters of the heart.
Looking at the empty dormitory, Qiu Ting sighed softly, but the thought of having dinner with Brother Su again soon made her feel inexplicably cheerful.
She opened the drawer, took out the makeup set that Cui Jiaying had given her, and started drawing her eyebrows little by little in front of the mirror, then added a touch of powder to her face.
It is said that college is a microcosm of society. Qiu Ting did not believe it before, but after only three years, she, a girl who came from the mountains and did not know what cosmetics were, has started to wear makeup.
It must be said that university can indeed easily change a person.
But the reason for this is that she has gradually started earning money. Since working at Qitian Animation, her knowledge and personal taste have been improving subtly and gradually.
Her previous style of dress is no longer suitable for the workplace. Although she still blushes often, she is no longer the introverted girl she used to be.
Looking at herself in the mirror, her features appeared even more gentle. She smiled sweetly, changed into a pair of denim overalls that looked more lively, and then received a text message from Su Qing.
"Qiu Ting, I'm done washing."
"Okay! Brother Su, I'll be right downstairs!"
Fortunately, the Zijingyuan canteen remained open even during the summer vacation, although the menu wasn't as extensive as it was during the school term, but it was still enough for the two of them.
Qiu Ting ordered a spicy hot pot, while Su Qing ordered a maocai (a type of Sichuan hot pot). They could eat each other's food, which was very appetizing.
"Brother Su, I heard the boss wants you to be the chief director of the new animation? When will it be released?"
Su Qing picked up a slice of spicy potato from her bowl, chewed it carefully, swallowed it, and said, "Based on the current production progress, the first episode should be able to air successfully around October."
During this time, he had already finished reading the Digimon script that Jiang Xia had given him. Just as Jiang Xia had said, the plot was exciting and full of twists and turns, and the chosen children had a deeper and closer bond with their Digimon.
