Chapter 35: A mere five hundred thousand The next day on the basketball court, Fu Yanxiuyi...
The next day on the basketball court, Fu Yanxiu was a little absent-minded, his eyes vaguely looking towards the audience, and he did not see Fu Xuefan.
Of course, I didn't see that person either.
He thought she might stand by the side with water as before, waiting for him with an unbearably eager look.
But she didn't even show up.
He felt an inexplicable sense of relief, but then the feeling of being torn apart began to torment him and distract him.
Fu Yanxiu was obviously not in good shape. Many girls in the gym came just to see him. They were yelling at him loudly, but he was a little absent-minded while playing basketball.
During halftime, a teammate came up to me, half jokingly and half scoldingly, "Are you hysterical?"
Fu Yanxiu was a little annoyed. He threw the ball to him and walked towards the rest area. Then, he paused.
There were two people standing not far away. His eyes deliberately fell on his sister first, and then he glanced at Zhong Fei indifferently.
Fu Xuefan saw his brother looking at him, and his eyes lit up, "Here!"
Fu Yanxiu walked over slowly and heard Fu Xuefan complain, "Why are there so many people today? It's really annoying. They didn't even save a good seat for us."
"When did you come?" Fu Yanxiu asked.
"I've been here for a long time," the person said. Her voice was hoarse as she spoke. Seeing him looking at her, she cleared her throat and said with a smile, "Your team needs to cheer you on! I've made myself hoarse cheering you on."
Fu Yanxiu stared at the calm face, as if nothing had happened yesterday, and was slightly stunned.
Fu Yanxiu's movements were a little stiff. He nodded perfunctorily and took the water from his sister's hand.
The whistle blew for the game. Before going on the court, Fu Yanxiu glanced at Lin Xicai and said to his sister, "Don't run around."
After returning to the court, there was a rare and aggressive desire to win in those calm and deep eyes.
The opponent's defense was very tight, but Fu Yanxiu broke through them one by one with his powerful moves. His posture was relaxed and graceful. Less than five minutes after he came on the court, he raised his hand and made a beautiful three-pointer which went into the net. Thunderous screams and applause suddenly rang out from the sidelines, and the girls shouted his name even louder as if encouraged.
Fu Xuefan was extremely proud and shouted louder than anyone else, wishing she could stick a label on her forehead saying this was her brother.
Lin Xicai stood there applauding, and felt the reality of Yan Xiu's status as the most handsome boy in the school of Xun University.
Wow, look at this popularity, look at these fans! What is the school hunk? This is it.
Lin Xicai was infected and also shouted a few times in unison.
......
After a great comeback in the second half, Fu Yanxiu left the field amid thunderous applause and screams. He was sweating profusely. When he returned to the rest area, Fu Xuefan was already waiting there with a triumphant look on his face. He handed the water to his brother before anyone else.
Fu Yanxiu took the mineral water from Fu Xuefan, raised his head and drank half of it. His eyes unconsciously fell elsewhere, and he frowned slightly and looked at Fu Xuefan: "Where is he?"
Fu Xuefan was stunned for a moment, then realized who he was talking about and replied casually, "Let's go."
Fu Yanxiu paused and suddenly snapped: "Didn't I tell you not to run around?"
Fu Xuefan was startled by his sudden loud voice and also got a little angry, "I'm not the one running around, so go and scold whoever is running around."
"How did you get back?" Fu Yanxiu asked in annoyance, "How can I explain to Aunt Ping if I get lost?"
Fu Xuefan felt both aggrieved and amused when she heard this. "Is she mentally retarded? Why did she get lost?"
"What's more..." Fu Xuefan thought of something and suddenly narrowed her eyes mischievously. She patted her brother's shoulder and said, "What's more, she didn't leave alone. Her good deskmate picked her up."
Fu Yanxiu thought of that strange and gloomy guy and frowned: "Are they familiar with each other?"
"My deskmate, of course we're familiar with each other." Fu Xuefan said with a smile, "That guy is extremely eccentric. Among all the people in the school, only Zhong Fei can talk to him."
Fu Yanxiu raised his head, took a sip of water, and stopped asking questions.
Fu Xuefan stood beside her brother, wondering, "Brother, are you in love?"
Fu Yanxiu choked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Fu Xuefan shrugged, "I guessed it. I feel like you've been emotionally unstable lately."
Fu Yanxiu sneered, as if mocking her wild imagination.
......
"You haven't told me why you are here yet?"
Lin Xicai's encounter with Xie Shi at Xun University was as frightening as meeting a ghost in broad daylight. She wasn't very interested in the basketball game Fu Xuefan asked her to watch yesterday, but the young lady was too clingy, so Lin Xicai simply brought her schoolbag with her, intending to drop her off and then go to the study room herself.
Unexpectedly, she met her deskmate here - she was watching the game intently when she felt a chill beside her. Suddenly, a male ghost floated over and asked her if it was interesting.
Lin Xicai was so frightened that she almost threw away the mineral water bottle in her hand.
Later, Xie Shi said he had something to talk to her about, and she was taken out in a daze.
As a result, the two of them came out and walked around Xu University for a long time, and he didn't say what they were going to do.
"Hey," Lin Xicai shouted, half annoyed, "I'm asking you a question, why are you here?"
"If you can come, why can't I?" He lowered his eyes to look at her. "What's wrong with your throat?"
"I ate too much kimchi my mom made last night, and this happened when I woke up."
"Isn't it to cheer people on?"
"There's something wrong with me."
Xie Shi seemed to smile when he heard this, but the curve of his lips disappeared in an instant, "Do you have your ID card with you?"
"I brought it," Lin Xicai was a little surprised, guessing what it was for, "Why, do you want to go to the park?"
"What are you going to the park for? Drink some northwest wind?"
"......" Lin Xicai was choked, "Then where are you going?"
"Withdraw the money," he said.
Lin Xicai:?
So why did you ask me for my ID when you withdrew money?
Besides, why do you want me to follow you when you withdraw money?
While they were stunned, the two of them walked to a mountain bike, and Lin Xicai's attention was quickly attracted by the broken mountain bike that seemed a little bit wrong.
She soon discovered where this abnormality came from. This car actually had...a back seat.
To the extent that, the unruly car suddenly had a sense of separation, like a prostitute who suddenly turned good.
The man sat in the car with his legs dangling on the ground. He raised his chin towards her, motioning her to get in. Lin Xicai twitched her lips, her curiosity piqued by his repeated inexplicable behavior. After thinking for a moment, she got in without hesitation.
Xie Shi was still dressed in black, a windbreaker with black sweatpants, and he looked as cold, solemn and depressed as ever.
He didn't ride the bike fast, so Lin Xicai didn't need to hold on to anything and could sit very steadily.
The breeze blowing in his face outlined the boy's slightly arched back, and his dark hair spread out at his neck like a wolf's tail. As he rode, his hair bounced and fluttered, and a few strands of hair curled up slightly, looking messy and unruly.
The first time she met this man, she secretly commented on his hair. His hairstyle didn't seem to be deliberately grown there, but more like a deliberate indulgence with a sense of venting.
It's like a peerless beauty who is disgusted with the scrutiny of the outside world and in anger cuts her hair into a bowl-cut style in order to cover up the face that causes her trouble.
She had no idea what the male protagonist had experienced before, which had caused him to develop such an almost perverted and self-destructive mentality.
But it's a pity that even if he has his hair done like this, no one thinks he is ugly. It's just that the long hair covers up part of his good looks, making his halo of appearance a little less dazzling to others.
The unsightly hair was blown by the wind. Lin Xicai looked at the face carefully and couldn't help but feel regretful - if such a face was paired with a shorter hairstyle, she couldn't imagine what kind of sensation it would cause...
Lin Xicai was daydreaming when the person in front of her suddenly took a deep breath, as if he could no longer bear it, and shook her hard.
Lin Xicai: “…”
Lin Xicai looked at the flat and empty road beside him, and then at the dead branch that was so small that it was almost impossible to find it if it was thrown on the ground. A thousand curse words flashed through his mind - if he said he didn't mean it, no one would believe him.
Lin Xicai instantly lost interest in studying beauty. What's the point of being pretty when she has such a bad temper? Pah.
......
Lin Xicai was bored, looking at the street scenes on both sides. As she looked, she realized something was wrong. This seemed to be the way back to school. She waited and watched, waiting for a while, and then Xie Shi's car stopped at the entrance of the shopping mall near the school.
Finally, he took her to the lottery store they visited last time.
Lin Xicai was completely stunned. She reached out to hold him back at the door, as if she was looking at a potential customer for elderly health products. "Again? You really won't give up."
There weren't many people inside. The waiter from last time had already come over to greet them. Seeing the two of them, he gave them a sweet professional smile: "Welcome, how can I help you?"
Lin Xicai laughed dryly twice, "Let's see..."
As she was trying to instill in her deskmate the truth that young people should be down-to-earth and not daydream too much, her deskmate looked at the pretty waitress and said two words lightly: "Redeem the prize."
When these words came out, both the waiter and she opened their eyes wide.
Then, her deskmate looked at her and said, "Lottery ticket, ID card, bank card number."
Lin Xicai's mind went blank for a moment, "Are you kidding me?"
Xie Shi lowered his eyes to glance at her, the corners of his lips curled up slightly: "If this is a joke, you'll know if you can just take it out and take a look."
Lin Xicai unzipped her pencil case and took out the wrinkled lottery ticket from her pencil case.
The waitress couldn't tell from their strange conversation and behavior whether they had really won the lottery or were just joking, so she came over and offered, "Let me help you check your ticket."
The air conditioning in the lobby of the Welfare Lottery Center was turned on very high, but Lin Xicai felt sweat on her back.
It seemed like only a moment, yet also like a long century, before the waitress screamed in surprise. Then, after calming herself down, she looked at her and said, "Congratulations... You've won the second prize of 500,000 yuan."
Five hundred thousand.
Five hundred thousand?
Five hundred thousand!
Lin Xicai's mind suddenly went blank, her ears were buzzing, and even the staff's subsequent instructions turned into a vague buzzing.
Lin Xicai was completely shocked by the magical development of the situation. Under the guidance of the staff, she mechanically filled out the prize redemption form, and her pen trembled slightly on the number "five hundred thousand".
Even when they handed her the bank deposit slip, Lin Xicai still felt like she was dreaming.
The two people walked out of the Welfare Lottery Center. Lin Xicai pinched herself almost immediately. Feeling the pain on her arm, she couldn't help but screamed twice, her beautiful and clear eyes sparkling.
Like... a sky full of stars.
That face is lively, bright and full of spirit.
Her happiness almost materialized before his eyes, and he turned into a happy little deer with her.
Xie Shi looked at her silently, forced to feel her joy and excitement, and the almost dried-up emotional pool in his soul was filled with her emotions.
He touched his chest, seeming a little bewildered. Can a mere 500,000 yuan buy so much happiness?
