Chapter 29 Her usual tricks
Lu Xiaoyun’s face flushed, and she glanced at Shen Yixiao subconsciously without saying anything.
Shen Yixiao smiled and said, "I agreed on behalf of Secretary Lu, but I heard that she seems to have a boyfriend. Aren't you afraid that her boyfriend will cause trouble for you?"
Lu Xiaoyun then spoke, "Yes, Mr. Meng, I actually have a boyfriend, and I have a good relationship with my boyfriend, so..."
"Okay, then let's play ball for a while, and then I'll take you back." Meng Zicheng looked helpless and regretful.
The four of them were performing on the stage, and I was the only audience member below.
Liang Feng brought two pairs of badminton rackets and handed them to me and Shen Yixiao, "Come on, doubles."
Shen Yixiao took off his coat and threw it aside, stretched his arms, raised his eyebrows and answered confidently, "Okay, we will form a couple team, you and Meng Zicheng will be a pair, Secretary Lu, you will be the substitute."
Lu Xiaoyun nodded and stood obediently by the side as a spectator.
I haven't played badminton for a long time, so I'm a little rusty. Fortunately, Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng's skills are just so-so, so the four of us are at the same level.
After playing for a while, I felt a little tired and sweaty. Shen Yixiao stopped and asked me, "Wife, are you okay? Do you want to take a break?"
Meng Zicheng immediately continued, "Sister-in-law, go down and take a rest. Let Secretary Lu take over. She's free anyway."
Lu Xiaoyun looked at me awkwardly, as if afraid that I would disagree.
"No more playing, let's wait until your sister-in-law has rested." Shen Yixiao was preparing to take a half-time break, he put down his racket and prepared to leave.
"No, I'm just getting into the fight. Hurry up, Secretary Lu, you go take over. I must decide the winner today!" Meng Zicheng refused. He urged Lu Xiaoyun to take his place.
If I refuse to give up, it will seem that I am petty. I handed the racket to Lu Xiaoyun, "Secretary Lu, you play for a while."
Lu Xiaoyun smiled happily and took my racket. "Okay, Madam, you can take a rest first."
She walked to Shen Yixiao's side, and the two looked at each other and then quickly separated. I saw the stalemate at that moment.
Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng looked at each other, a hint of mockery flashed in their eyes. They thought I didn't know, and started playing badminton as if nothing had happened.
In front of me, they played a covert trick and trampled on my dignity invisibly.
Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng deliberately hit the ball towards Shen Yixiao. In order to catch the ball, Lu Xiaoyun was always "forced" to lean towards Shen Yixiao. Their bodies would touch from time to time, and there was ambiguity between their sweat.
Suddenly, Lu Xiaoyun accidentally fell down, and Shen Yixiao subconsciously reached out to hold her up, and the two hugged each other.
Meng Zicheng immediately stopped playing and ran over to ask, "Are you okay?"
Liang Feng glanced at me and said, "Secretary Lu, your ball skills are still not as good as my sister-in-law's."
"I'm fine, I just hit her too quickly." Lu Xiaoyun was surrounded by three people who asked about her well-being. The blush on her face became more intense. I, on the other hand, stood aside like an outsider, and it felt inappropriate to even ask a question.
Shen Yixiao was the first to react. He let go of his hand and asked Lu Xiaoyun to stand up. His face was not very good. “Secretary Lu, if you don’t know how to fight, don’t fight. Let my wife do it.”
Lu Xiaoyun's eyes showed a trace of grievance and innocence. She stood up and handed me the racket. "Madam, you should do it. I'm too bad."
At this time, Meng Zicheng was making trouble again. He also handed me the racket and said, "Sister-in-law, you take my place. Why don't you and Secretary Lu form a team, and Liang Feng and Brother Xiao form a team. Let's have a competition between men and women. How do you think?"
I don’t know what Meng Zicheng is thinking. He seems to like to make things bigger in secret.
Then he enthusiastically took the blame for his brother Xiao.
Maybe all the playboys like this kind of exciting way. There is no fun in fighting guerrilla warfare honestly. It is exciting enough to test the waters on the edge of being discovered.
"Forget it, I don't want to fight anymore." When Shen Yixiao heard that I was to be in a group with Lu Xiaoyun, he immediately glared at Meng Zicheng and refused in a cold voice.
Meng Zicheng then realized that he had gone too far and changed his tone, "Are you all tired? Why don't you just go eat something first?"
I took Meng Zicheng's racket and said calmly, "Let's play for a while. I haven't had such a hearty exercise in a long time. Secretary Lu, do you mind playing with me?"
Lu Xiaoyun was stunned and quickly shook her head, "No, no, no, I don't mind, Madam, as long as you don't mind my low level!"
I smiled, then motioned Liang Feng to stand next to Shen Yixiao.
Shen Yixiao had no choice but to agree to play for a while longer. Maybe it was because he saw that Lu Xiaoyun and I were two women and were not as strong as them, so he played with less force. We were able to cope with it more than enough. I have to say that Lu Xiaoyun and I actually had a tacit understanding.
I burst out laughing. It was really strange.
When the game was almost over, Liang Feng served the ball and I was supposed to receive it, but Lu Xiaoyun somehow jumped over to receive the ball, and she knocked me to the ground, hitting my elbow hard and causing a sharp pain.
"Wife!"
Shen Yixiao yelled nervously, dropped his racket and ran over to check on me.
Meng Zicheng and Liang Feng also gathered around. I found this scene very interesting because just half an hour ago, the same scene happened to Lu Xiaoyun.
Lu Xiaoyun was panic-stricken and almost in tears. "Madam, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that. I thought I should have caught the ball. I'm sorry..."
“Boss Shen, I didn’t mean to bump into the Madam!”
She looked so helpless and pitiful, as if I was about to accuse her and punish her.
Shen Yixiao glanced at Lu Xiaoyun's tearful eyes and wanted to get angry, but he forced himself to hold it back. Today, he watched Lu Xiaoyun slap him in the face, his face turned red, and he must have felt heartbroken.
If I were to care about it a little more now, Lu Xiaoyun’s image as a poor little thing would be complete.
This is her usual trick. I have experienced it too many times in my previous life. I have endured it to the extreme and suffered so much humiliation, but I always end up with nothing good, because from time to time I would lose control of my emotions and scold her for snatching away Shen Yixiao, and she played the role of a poor mistress, "forced" to snatch everything from me, and had to endure my mental attacks.
After all, my verbal prowess cannot compare to her actual actions.
"Secretary Lu didn't mean it, sister-in-law, how about..." Meng Zicheng was the first to speak.
Shen Yixiao was also looking at me with a complicated look.
Now, if I blame Lu Xiaoyun, his desire to protect her will probably explode, right?
"What are you talking about?" I smiled softly, pushed them aside and stood up, then took out a tissue from my pocket and handed it to Lu Xiaoyun, "Secretary Lu, you didn't do it on purpose, why should I blame you? Instead, you bumped into me, are you injured? Do you want to go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Lu Xiaoyun was stunned when she saw the tissue I handed over to her, and seemed totally unexpected for my friendly answer.
