Chapter 13
It was Friday, the last day of the sports meet. The sun was shining brightly, making people feel warm.
The morning was all about group events for the remaining classes. The 4×100 relay race was the highlight of the final stage. At this time, most people were in the stands, and the class teachers were also present.
Soon it was the turn of the second-year high school group, and the draw showed that Class 7 was in the first group.
Jiang Xu was lying on the stands, squinting his eyes at the people on the track. Starting from the starting point, the first to third runners entered in order, and the fourth runner entered from behind the starting point.
Jiang Xu looked towards the last stick, and sure enough, he saw He Jin in the second lane, flexing his wrists, with a white headband on his head attached to his hair roots, and the loose hair on his forehead tied up.
The sunlight just happened to hit that area, and the boy was shrouded in light, with even his hair shining.
That was her young boy. A fleeting glimpse of him was enough to last a lifetime.
It was not until the sound of the starting gun that Jiang Xu was finally brought back to his senses.
The first runner was Song Li. He put away his usual nonchalant look, reacted and started quickly, and overtook the two people in front of him at the first corner to move into third place.
The second and third runners maintained their rankings and narrowed the gap between the second and first place.
The four of them have a high level of tacit understanding and can smoothly pass the baton while running forward.
He Jin and the second-place player took the baton almost at the same time and accelerated to sprint. He Jin had strong explosive power and long legs, so he kept every step in rhythm and quickly left the other person behind for a short distance.
When everyone thought this was the limit, He Jin was still accelerating, twenty meters, fifteen meters, and in the last ten meters, He Jin surpassed the first place and crossed the finish line, and the whole audience cheered and screamed.
Jiang Xu loosened his clenched hands and followed the boy who slowed down and stopped after crossing the finish line.
He Jin caught her gaze, panted, seemed to smile, raised his index and middle fingers together, tapped his lips lightly, raised them towards the stands, and then made a one gesture with his index finger.
Jiang Xu wanted to jump off the stands, but she managed to keep herself restrained.
The two exchanged glances, all of which were seen by everyone. Song Li retreated to the middle of the playground, one hand on Xie Yiyang's shoulder, the other on his waist. Envy and jealousy were written all over his face. He curled his lips and said, "Brother Jin is really too flirty when it comes to dating. He's snatched up all the girls, whether they have a partner or not."
Xie Yiyang said, "Brother Ren Jin is only flirting with Miss Jiang Xu. The others are just passers-by who watch for free. Who knows, one day they might even have to pay to watch."
Song Li sighed deeply: "Oh, I haven't tasted any of the sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty flavors of love. When will God be generous enough to give me a girlfriend?"
"..." Xie Yiyang rolled his eyes at him, "It's you who blames me for being too picky."
——
"What kind of ability does Jiang Xu have? Why does He Jin fall for her?"
"Hey Qinqin, don't be sad. It's just a few more glances. Jiang Xu is clinging to her like a hot face against a cold butt every day. Maybe Brother Jin is tired of her and decided to play with her for fun. We'll break up in a few days."
"Jiang Xu is just a little ant, how can she compare to our Qinqin? Dad is a big boss, and the toilet in his house is bigger than that Jiang Xu's house."
"Hahahahahahaha..." Three or four girls were smoking in the bathroom.
Xu Qinqin stood in the middle, but just leaned on the sink, listening to them talk, her eyes became redder, her lips curled up, and her smile was almost morbid.
No, He Jin has never treated a girl like that before. It is definitely not just a casual thing between the two of them.
She had seen Jiang Xu's sharpness when she was a child. He was not as reserved as he is now. At that time, as long as she and Jiang Xu stood in the same place, the focus would never be on her.
Her father, the boss? He was just indebted to Jiang Yuanshan. She refused to accept it. Why was he inferior to Jiang Xu in everything? Why did everyone like Jiang Xu?
Xu Qinqin is good-looking. She was called the school belle during military training. She also has a good family background. She always hangs out with those bad friends in junior high school and makes some trouble every once in a while. She has successfully become a celebrity in the school. She is labeled as beautiful, has good academic performance, has a good family background, and her friends are all powerful people in society.
She likes the feeling of being the focus of other people's attention, and she won't allow anyone to step on her head.
But there are still some brave ones, but because they have no family background, their ending is not so satisfactory. Maybe it is also because they are beautiful that everything can be forgiven, regardless of the cause and the result.
When she was in the first year of high school, Yang Jingrou, a girl in Class 10, heard her friend's crying complaint that her boyfriend had fallen in love with Xu Qinqin, but Xu Qinqin was still hanging on to him like a green tea girl, just like other suitors.
She was so angry that she wanted to stand up for her friend, so she went to find Xu Qinqin and told her that the boy already had a girlfriend. They even had a few words in a heated argument.
Xu Qinqin was alone at the time, and seeing her coming so aggressively, she just responded with a few words and left.
Of course, this is impossible to just let it go like this.
Later, Xu Qinqin hired someone to wait for her, using familiar methods, gave her a good beating and filmed the video, which she then posted online along with the surveillance video of Yang Jingrou scolding her. She also played a bit of a sympathy game, saying that she had never done that kind of thing.
After all, there was no evidence, so they just passed it over. After all, everyone knew about this kind of thing, and no one's focus was on the cause of the incident.
The video spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and soon spread throughout the entire campus network, becoming a hot topic for gossip-loving students to talk about after dinner.
There are also some netizens who cannot distinguish right from wrong, do not know the cause and effect, and just because of two videos, they made a lot of remarks online, saying that Yang Jingrou deserved it, that Xu Qinqin and the others fought well, and that people like Yang Jingrou should be dealt with.
Even if there were some neutral remarks or remarks in support of Yang Jingrou, they were quickly buried.
The friend who stood up for Yang Jingrou never said a word, as if the whole incident had nothing to do with her.
Because of this incident, Yang Jingrou suffered great damage both physically and mentally. After her physical injuries healed, she stopped coming to school and stayed at home. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and suffered from severe depression and attempted suicide. Fortunately, she was discovered early and rescued.
After the news was spread, it was discussed on the Internet. Due to the background of the Xu family, the school could only suppress the matter and finally let the two people resolve it peacefully. Yang Jingrou had no choice but to compromise on the spot and was forced to transfer schools and later drop out of school.
Even though they didn't know the reason behind the incident, no one dared to mess with Xu Qinqin anymore because they had seen the process and the result. The only one who dared to mess with her was Xiao Yu from the vocational high school next door. The two had been fighting openly and secretly for several semesters because of He Jin, and Xu Qinqin believed that she was better.
But she didn't expect Jiang Xu to show up halfway. When she saw her sitting next to He Jin that day, she started to panic. But she didn't expect that the two of them would be together in just two months. Xu Qinqin was jealous and almost crazy. Why was this happening?
I just saw their interaction and I'm going crazy with hatred. Why can't I get rid of her? This time, it was clearly me who fell in love first. Her mother has always made her and Jiang Xu have a good relationship, telling her to endure, endure, and endure. She always says the same thing. It's really cowardly.
She would definitely get it back.
"Move aside, wash your hands, thank you." A soft female voice sounded, interrupting Xu Qinqin's thoughts. She didn't move aside, but a girl next to her did.
Ji Jing washed her hands calmly and said before leaving the bathroom, "You have no right to talk about others behind their backs. If you have time, you might as well think about who you are. Also, they will be fine. You don't need to worry about them."
Although Ji Jing's voice was not loud, it sounded very cold, and did not give anyone a chance to refute. The girls who had just talked were all stunned and did not have time to say anything.
After Ji Jing finished speaking, she walked out of the bathroom without caring about the reaction inside.
"Why is this woman so nosy?"
"I better not fucking see her again."
“…”
The rage in Xu Qinqin's eyes grew even stronger. She sneered contemptuously, and in her heart she almost tore the two words "Jiang Xu" to pieces.
——
The steps to the rostrum are behind the playground and there are not many people there.
When Jiang Xu saw several people walking down the stairs, her eyes lit up and she rushed forward to hug He Jin who was walking in front.
"Ahhh, Brother Jin, you're so handsome!!"
He Jin was caught off guard and took two steps back before he could steady himself. Before he could move, the girl raised her head and pulled down the gold medal hanging around his neck. Her soft lips pressed against the spot where his finger had just touched. In an instant, she moved away and moved her body back. With her hands behind her back, she tilted her head and gave him a playful smile.
He Jin pulled the girl back and looked down at her, "Just run away after teasing her."
Before Jiang Xu could think of how to answer, He Jin pulled her to the side, with one hand resting her waist on the railing of the stairs, and she was held in his arms.
Jiang Xu raised her eyes and met a pair of smiling eyes. Her chin was lifted up, the back of her neck was held, and warm lips with a cool minty taste came down on her. He bit her lightly, then let her go and hung the gold medal around her neck with one hand.
Jiang Xu's eyelashes trembled, and her cheeks and ears were burning hot, so hot that she forgot to breathe.
Looking at the girl's flushed face, He Jin smiled stiflingly and brushed his fingertips over the place where he had just bitten her. "Does it hurt?"
He Jin smiled and rubbed her head. Just as he was about to pull her away, Jiang Xu held him back. She stood on a step higher than him, her eyes just level with his. She imitated him and knocked his lower lip.
His movements were fast and heavy, and she could taste the faint smell of blood, which spread little by little in her mouth. Jiang Xu suddenly felt his breath become hot, and immediately loosened her hand that was hanging around his neck.
"It doesn't hurt." Then he jumped down the stairs and quickly fled the crime scene.
He Jin was still smiling, with one hand in his pocket, watching the girl's fleeing back, and pursed his lips slightly, feeling a little painful.
