Chapter 16 You're the Best



After passing the green running track, there are more than a dozen open-air basketball courts connected together.

Ji Qingqian walked on the roadside embankment.

She was already tall, and now that she was standing on top, she was almost half a head taller than Lu Yibei.

Lu Yibei glanced at her sideways.

Her face, thin and pointed like an oval, was pale and indifferent, but her lips were perfectly vibrant, like a small peach blossom adorning a blank sheet of paper, both budding and alluring.

Her pale face became stunningly beautiful because of the peach blossoms.

With her hands behind her back, she had a cool and aloof face, but when she walked, she skipped a little, revealing a touch of playfulness.

Lu Yibei asked himself a question.

Who is this?

A: Ji Qingqian.

Then he asked, "What does this have to do with me?"

A: Good brother.

Lu Yibei exclaimed, "My brother! Brilliant!"

"Brother Bei!"

Someone called from behind, and Lu Yibei turned around.

It was Xia Xiaoli bouncing around.

Xia Li was much smaller; even when she jumped, she wasn't as tall as Lu Yibei.

She waved her hand vigorously, as if afraid Lu Yibei wouldn't notice her.

Seeing Lu Yibei turn around and stop, Xia Li quickly rushed over.

When she reached Lu Yibei, she slammed on the brakes, and with a whoosh, her sneakers left drift marks on the ground.

"Brother Bei! I called you earlier, why didn't you answer?" Xia Li complained.

"When?" Lu Yibei asked.

"Never mind..."

Lu Yibei seemed to have simply not noticed her, not deliberately ignoring her, so Xia Li didn't pursue the matter further: "Brother Bei, are you alone?"

"How could it be..."

Lu Yibei wanted to say, "Didn't you see the female warrior standing next to me?"

But when he turned around, he thought, "Huh? Where's my Qingqian? Where did she go?"

When Lu Yibei stopped, Ji Qingqian continued walking forward for a while, and now she was already ten steps away.

She had her back to the two men, gazing at the open-air basketball court enclosed by barbed wire.

Students were constantly coming and going along the road, and since Ji Qingqian didn't stop with Lu Yibei, Xia Li didn't realize that the two of them had just been walking together.

Xia Li didn't recognize Ji Qingqian because she wasn't wearing her big sun hat.

Lu Yibei chuckled: "Oh right, if it's not a person, it could be a dog, right?"

Xia Li then said, "Are you really not coming to our welcoming group?"

"Something's up."

"It's a shame that I invited you to work for free, but you didn't even come to the dinner party to freeload."

"Let's eat it again next time we have the chance."

"Okay, let's meet again."

Xia Li said, taking out her phone: "Hey Bei Ge, let's get a verified account. I lost my QQ number and can't get it back."

When they were in junior high school, they were still using QQ. By the time everyone started using WeChat in high school, Xia Li and Lu Yibei had almost lost contact.

Xia Li's eyes gleamed mischievously: "I'll scan your code."

"Don't take advantage of me."

Lu Yibei said that, but he still had to scan the QR code.

A beep.

Add.

Everyone else calls it Rock Sugar Pear, but Xia Li's ID is "Caramel Black Pear".

Looking at Xia Li's skin tone, Lu Yibei was amazed that this little girl really took self-deprecation to the extreme.

"Bye then, I'm off to another event, I'll contact you later." Xia Li said without stopping.

By the time Lu Yibei said goodbye, Xia Li had already brushed past Ji Qingqian, who was more than ten meters away.

They run really fast.

Lu Yibei walked over to Ji Qingqian and said, "Let's go. Are you still looking? Looking at handsome guys?"

Despite the hot weather, there were quite a few people on the basketball court.

It seems the sweltering heat can't dampen the boy's passion for basketball!

Lu Yibei felt a sense of admiration, then watched a passionate young man shoot a basketball.

In a flash, it didn't even touch the net, let alone go in.

Lu Yibei no longer admired him.

With this level of skill, he should go out and play more.

After throwing a three-no-stick (nothing sticks), the hot-blooded young man's face visibly turned red.

He then secretly glanced at Ji Qingqian twice.

“You’re affecting their performance,” Lu Yibei said.

"What does this have to do with me?" Ji Qingqian said dismissively. "If you're going to cook, then practice more. Don't try to shift the blame."

After saying that, she left with Lu Yibei.

Lu Yibei glanced at the handsome young man over there, whose face looked even more desperate.

It seems he thinks he performed poorly, which is why he missed out on the goddess's favor...

"Their sins are grave," Lu Yibei sighed, shaking his head.

"Your friend? I saw you two talking in Dongdaemun before," Ji Qingqian asked, pointing to Xia Li.

"Yes, she's the old classmate I mentioned before, her name is Xia Li, she's a second-year student, so she's your senior."

Lu Yibei said, "He's a nice person. I was going to introduce him to you, why did you come all this way?"

Ji Qingqian didn't answer. She felt like she was being petty. They had only met twice, and she hadn't even said a word before she started to be wary of the short senior.

Lu Yibei's phone vibrated; it was a voice message from Caramel Black Pear, whom he had just added as a friend.

Lu Yibei clicked on it.

Xia Li spoke while running, panting heavily.

"Brother Bei, speaking of which, that... that... that junior girl who asked you to help her carry her luggage, she was absolutely gorgeous! Do you think there's any chance for you two to develop a relationship? I think you two are a perfect match. You met during freshman orientation, cherish this connection, don't miss out—"

Lu Yibei abruptly cut off the voice message and turned to Ji Qingqian expressionlessly: "Ignore her, she's out of her mind."

Ji Qingqian nodded slightly in agreement: "You're right."

She is indeed a good person.

Lu Yibei replied to Xia Li with a sweating soybean emoji.
