Chapter 18 Sports Day
But although she was copying the information, her mind was thinking about the chemistry problem. She couldn't figure out what went wrong with a chemistry problem and why she couldn't get it right.
I was so engrossed in thinking that the words I originally wrote turned into chemical formulas.
Chi Jinjin stared at the equation in a daze, muttering, "Why is it wrong?"
"The numbers are wrong."
Suddenly, a voice sounded in her ears, and then a hand took a piece of chalk next to her, erased the "2" in her equation and wrote "3" instead.
yes!
It should be 3!
Chi Jinjin suddenly realized, turned around and looked at the person behind her happily, only to find that it was Nan Xuqiu!
"Senior Nan..." Chi Jinjin was shocked and subconsciously walked to the side, but she forgot that she was on a stool. She stepped on empty air and her body instantly tilted towards the ground.
Fortunately, Nan Xuqiu was quick-witted and quickly put his arm around her waist and carried her down from the stool.
"Are you okay?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Seeing that her hand was still holding the other person's arm, Chi Jinjin quickly let go, took a big step back, and said awkwardly, "No, it's okay, thank you, senior."
"Are you the only one in your class who made a bulletin board?" Nan Xuqiu asked. He looked at Chi Jinjin's bulletin board, his eyes landing on a few stick figures in the corner. He pointed at them and asked, "Did you draw this?"
Chi Jinjin quickly ran to the stick figures, blocking them, and said embarrassedly, "I, I can't draw, so I just gave it a try..."
Nan Xuqiu looked at her newspaper and said, "The newspaper can't be filled with words, otherwise it will cause visual fatigue. Otherwise, let me help you. Although my drawing skills are not very good, it is still passable."
"No need to bother." Chi Jinjin quickly refused.
Nan Xuqiu said, "It's not a big deal. I'm bored anyway, so I'll just use it as a way to kill time."
"What style do you want to paint in?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Chi Jinjin hurriedly took the template and gave it to him, saying, "Well, thank you, senior."
"You're welcome." Nan Xuqiu took the template and started picking colors from the chalk box.
Chi Jinjin erased her own formula and continued copying the article, but her eyes always fell on him.
Look at his focused expression, watch his slender fingers sliding the chalk across the blackboard.
But I can’t help but think of Shen Moli.
"Senior..." Chi Jinjin couldn't help but ask tentatively, "I heard that you are dating Jasmine from our class?"
But the moment she asked the question, Chi Jinjin regretted it and wished she could bite off her tongue. She clearly knew the answer, but she didn't know why she still wanted to ask.
Nan Xuqiu stopped painting, looked at her next to him, and said, "No."
Chi Jinjin, who was in the midst of regret, was startled for a moment. She turned to look at Nan Xuqiu and said unexpectedly, "But, but that day, didn't you accept the chocolate from Jasmine?"
"So that's what everyone in school says." Nan Xuqiu shook his head and said, "That chocolate wasn't for me. She wanted to give it to Song Ci and asked me to bring it."
"Senior Song?"
Chi Jinjin finally understood that it was Shen Moli who liked Song Ci, so he came to the classroom to find Shen Moli because of Song Ci, so they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, so they were not together...
Chi Jinjin's heart immediately surged with excitement, and she even thought of her previous thoughts and actions, which she found rather funny.
"I didn't expect you to be so gossipy." Nan Xuqiu teased.
Chi Jinjin muttered subconsciously, "Gossip, isn't it human nature..."
Nan Xuqiu suddenly burst out laughing.
Looking at his smile, Chi Jinjin felt again that the heart that had fallen to the bottom and had become silent began to revive and then started beating in her chest.
She didn't want to like him, so she built up a huge army for this purpose, but he could completely disarm her with just a smile.
After a while, Chi Jinjin had finished copying all the information, and Nan Xuqiu had just finished drawing all the information according to the template.
"Okay, let's just make do with it." Nan Xuqiu said to Chi Jinjin.
Chi Jinjin was stunned. The scene in front of her was not just a makeshift one. It was even better looking than the template.
"Senior Nan, you are too modest." Chi Jinjin exclaimed.
Nan Xuqiu said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll take it as your satisfaction."
"More than satisfied, I'm extremely satisfied!" Chi Jinjin said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Senior. I really don't know what I would do without you."
"You're welcome. If you really want to thank me with something, how about buying me a drink?" Nan Xuqiu suggested.
Chi Jinjin nodded quickly and said, "Okay."
"Let's go to the supermarket." Nan Xuqiu put down the pen in his hand, went to wash his hands, and said to Chi Jinjin.
Chi Jinjin also washed her hands immediately and followed him to the supermarket.
But in front of the supermarket, Nan Xuqiu didn't want to go in, so Chi Jinjin asked him to wait for her under the bamboo forest in front.
Nan Xuqiu nodded in agreement.
"By the way, senior." Chi Jinjin walked forward a few steps and suddenly turned to ask him, "What would you like to drink?"
"As long as it's juice, it's fine." Nan Xuqiu replied.
"Okay, I understand." Chi Jinjin happily ran into the supermarket and bought a bottle of iced juice for Nan Xuqiu.
Then he walked out of the store with two bottles of juice and came to Nan Xuqiu.
"Senior, I don't know what kind of juice you like, so I bought two bottles. Which one do you like?" Chi Jinjin handed him both bottles.
Nan Xuqiu picked up a bottle of grape juice and took it from her hand. His fingertips lightly touched her fingertips, and Chi Jinjin's heart trembled.
She sat down opposite him, unscrewed the apple juice on the other side, and drank it quietly.
The two didn't say anything, but the atmosphere made people feel comfortable and at ease, and the breeze with a hint of bamboo fragrance brushed across their cheeks.
Chi Jinjin seemed to be looking somewhere else, but in fact she was secretly looking at Nan Xuqiu.
"Xiao Chi," Nan Xuqiu suddenly asked her, "What brand of soap do you usually use to wash clothes?"
Chi Jinjin, who was drinking a drink, almost choked.
She coughed twice and replied in confusion, "Huh?"
Nan Xuqiu smiled and said, "I really like the smell of the school uniform you washed for me last time, so I wanted to ask."
Chi Jinjin explained, "That's not a brand, it's made by my mother."
"Does your family make soap?" Nan Xuqiu asked, tilting his head.
"No," Chi Jinjin replied, "it's because my mother wanted to save money, so she made her own soap for the family."
"That's right, okay." Nan Xuqiu nodded.
Chi Jinjin didn't expect that he would like the taste of her soap, but she was very happy in her heart.
In the evening, Chi Jinjin finished her homework, stretched, and turned to look out the window.
It was quiet outside the window, and the moon was hanging on the treetops. Tonight's moonlight was like Nan Xuqiu. Perhaps only the moon knew her love. She was secretly thinking of that person through the wind and rain.
In the private room, Ji Yang was playing finger-guessing games with a group of women, while Song Ci was curled up in the corner of the sofa, playing games on his mobile phone.
Moli Shen picked up a glass of wine, slowly came to Song Ci, sat down next to him, deliberately leaned forward and pressed against his arm, and asked, "Senior Song, what game are you playing?"
Song Ci turned his head to look at Shen Moli, who smiled at him.
Unexpectedly, the next moment Song Ci said angrily, "Get out of the way, you ugly ghost, don't disturb me playing games!"
All of a sudden, everyone in the private room looked over. Shen Moli couldn't hold back her expression, her eyes reddened, and she stood up and ran out of the room.
Ji Yang looked at Song Ci and said helplessly, "No, I went through so much trouble to get this beauty here, why are you treating her like this? After all, she likes you."
"I don't like her, so don't bring these women around me in the future." Song Ci said disdainfully, then looked at his phone again, muttering boredly, "Why aren't you online yet..."
"Online? Who's that?" Ji Yang joked, "Is it the girl you read the menu to last time? By the way, who is she? Do I know her?"
"I don't know him. I met him online." Song Ci said.
"No way, you are still having an online romance? That's too low." Ji Yang said sarcastically.
"I'm not having an online romance!" Song Ci said, then muttered softly, "I haven't even started a relationship with her yet..."
"So, not only are you in an online relationship, but it's unrequited love?"
"Who said I have a one-sided love?" Song Ci immediately retorted, "I think she must like me too."
"Have you ever met?" Ji Yang asked curiously.
Song Ci shook her head and said, "We've only known each other for a short time, just a few months."
"It's been months and we haven't seen each other yet?" Ji Yang laughed, "Aren't you afraid that the person across from you might be a dinosaur or an old lady?"
"Impossible!" Song Ci said with a firm smile, "I've heard her voice. She's just a gentle and adorable little girl of seventeen or eighteen."
Ji Yang stood up and sat down next to him, putting his hand on his shoulder. Like an old father, he spoke to him earnestly, "Brother, you're still young and don't know how dangerous this world is. As the saying goes, 'Choose me for online dating, I'm super sweet,' but this is a scam, both emotionally and financially. You'd better give up on online dating."
"You're talking nonsense. Xiaomao is not that kind of person." Song Ci took his hand away and rolled her eyes at him.
Ji Yang smiled and said, "Have you ever thought about what if she is really ugly?"
"It's okay if it's ugly, but I still like it!" Song Ci said firmly.
"Okay, as long as you're happy." Ji Yang said helplessly, but he couldn't help but burst out laughing. He laughed so hard that he was out of breath and said intermittently, "You...hahaha...are you having an online romance...hahahahaha!"
"Laugh at your mother's!" Song Ci pushed him away.
The sports meet was coming soon, and Tang Shi got a registration form from Shen Moli.
Ever since Shen Moli came back from outside and cried bitterly, she has never been close to Nan Xuqiu and the others again.
However, after Chi Jinjin knew that they were not a couple, she didn't care too much about her.
"Jinjin, do you want me to sign you up for a long-distance run?" Tang Shi said with a wicked smile while holding a pen.
"No!" Chi Jinjin immediately pressed her hand on the list, "If you want to go for a long-distance run, you might as well let me die. Don't harm me, Tang Shi."
"I'm kidding." Tang Shi said with a smile, "With your condition, even short distance running would be like a death sentence for you, let alone long-distance running."
"Forget it, you civil officials will take care of the results. Now it's time for us military generals to take the stage. I'll kill them all!" Tang Shi wrote her name excitedly. Her moment of glory and pride was about to come.
Three days later, the sports meet was officially held. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear, and there were tents everywhere on the green playground. Banners were unfurled, and there was orderly coordination. Busy figures were everywhere on the field. However, it was really hard for Chi Jinjin because she was a logistics staff member and had to lead people to deliver water to the athletes in the class. She needed to stay in the tent, but the temperature in the tent rose quickly and was not as cool as outside.
The "Athletes' March" echoed throughout the campus, and the radio continued to broadcast good news and blessings from various classes.
Chi Jinjin was so hot that her bangs were wet with sweat and stuck to her forehead.
She fanned herself with a notebook and went outside the tent to get some fresh air. In front of the tent was the auditorium, which was packed with people. However, since it was open-air, all she could see were umbrellas, colorful like blooming flowers. Those who didn't bring umbrellas covered their heads with their coats, with three or four people under one coat.
But even in such a chaotic situation, she could still see that familiar figure at a glance.
Nan Xuqiu stood in the audience without an umbrella, quietly looking down at the audience below.
The tiny particles raised by the wind refracted the light, shining on his blue and white school uniform, as if he were glowing too.
Chi Jinjin didn't understand why everyone was wearing the same school uniform, but why did his uniform shine so brightly?
The wind today is very southern and autumnal, which means that she used to use gentleness to describe everything, but now she uses him to describe gentleness.
The young man was like a mortal being, unaware of himself. She should be like this when she looked up to him in the secular world, across this noisy and bustling scene...
At this time, a girl holding an umbrella walked up to Nan Xuqiu, and Nan Xuqiu smiled at her gently.
Chi Jinjin knew that girl. She was the class monitor and Nan Xuqiu's deskmate.
She lowered her head and sighed, looking away and returning to the stuffy tent.
The sports meet lasted for three days. On the second day, the sprint competition began, and Tang Shi stretched his muscles on the track.
"Tang Shi, come on!"
Chi Jinjin encouraged from the side.
Tang Shi said with determination, "Wait and get the medal for me later."
"Can you please be more low-key?" Tang Shi said.
Tang Shi spread his hands and said, "I want to, but my strength doesn't allow it."
Chi Jinjin smiled helplessly, but at this moment there was a sudden commotion in the audience.
Chi Jinjin followed their gaze and saw that it was Ji Yang and Song Ci who came.
They walked to the first row of the auditorium, and those sitting in the seats quickly made room for them.
There were also a few people holding umbrellas for them.
Song Ci took off his sunglasses and frowned, "I'm not saying anything, Ji Yang, what's wrong with you? You suddenly want to come to this crappy sports meeting. I'm so fucking hot."
"It's alright anyway, I can just take a look and kill some time. Besides..." Ji Yang said with a smile, "Look at that girl in the audience, isn't she Tang Xuemei? I heard she's a special student in the school and is really good at sprinting."
"How great can it be?" Song Ci said disdainfully.
Tang Shi rolled his eyes and said in disgust, "It's that troublesome brother-in-law Song Ci again. Don't look at them now, or you'll get stye."
She stretched her joints and got ready to run.
