Chapter 82 The Delinquent School Beauty Transfer Student 23 Class Monitor
“He has mental problems. I already told him I wasn’t going to see him.”
Yun Chiyi sat on the ground, looked up at Lin Hengzhi, her neck was a little tired from looking up, so she pulled him to sit next to her.
Lin Hengzhi's brows, which had been furrowed again, slowly relaxed as he sat down. "Isn't it hot here?"
Yun Chiyi quickly shoved the umbrella into his hand and said with a grin, "Of course it's hot! My arm is getting sore from holding the umbrella. Class monitor, you hold it for me."
The two huddled under an umbrella. Lin Hengzhi held the umbrella handle loosely, his eyes half-closed, looking at her smiling lips.
Yun Chiyi's smile vanished instantly, and she grabbed his hand, squeezing it tightly: "Hold on tight! It's going to hit my head!"
Her hands were warm from the sunlight, her skin was snow-white, while his hands remained icy cold. The next second, she subconsciously pulled her hands back and put them in her pockets.
"Do we still need to run for about ten more minutes?"
Lin Hengzhi: "Right, just finish the run slowly."
When Wang Jiajia returned, she found that Chen Cang had finally left. She was overjoyed: "It's so much better that the chatterbox is gone. Couldn't he be quiet like you? He was always talking nonstop all day long, it was so annoying."
The quiet person in the conversation was Lin Hengzhi. He listened without replying, silently staring at the withering grass.
Wang Jiajia was parched from the sun, so she squeezed under the umbrella. Yun Chiyi's shoulders ached from being squeezed from both sides, so she took her hands out from behind her back and put them on her lap: "The umbrella is only so big, are you trying to squeeze me to death? Hurry up and get out of the way!"
Lin Hengzhi raised his eyes indifferently: "First come, first served. She arrived last."
"Fine, I shouldn't have praised him earlier," Wang Jiajia said fiercely. "How can you, a boy, have the nerve to say that? I'm not leaving!"
Yun Chiyi was stuck in the middle, unable to move. She forced a smile, but gritted her teeth in desperation and said, "Lin Hengzhi, if you really can't do it, go memorize some vocabulary words. It's cool there and you can calm down."
How could he not know that she was just using him and then discarding him? Lin Hengzhi sat up straight and replied, "I've finished memorizing today's material. It's break time now. Didn't you call me over just now?"
Yun Chiyi took a deep breath: "Can't you memorize tomorrow's too?"
Lin Hengzhi: "No."
The three of them were locked in a contest for several minutes, neither willing to give in.
Xin Xiaoya was about to run the last lap when Wang Jiajia was still pushing her way through: "Move over there a bit. I should have known better than to wear black today. I feel like I'm going to melt in the sun."
As she leaned to the side, Yun Chiyi's hand slipped down and covered the back of her hand that was supporting her on the grass. The hand under her palm pulled back slightly, and she turned her head suspiciously, seeing Lin Hengzhi's slightly evasive eyes.
Yun Chiyi asked, "Does it hurt? It's alright, I'm not heavy."
"Don't frown! I'm very gentle, okay!" She pressed down, her slender fingers tightening, gripping her cold ring and little fingers.
"Lin Hengzhi, your fingers are so long."
Yun Chiyi gestured with his hand: "Look, my ring finger is only as long as your little finger. How come I never noticed before?"
She was unusually serious; her lips were slightly curved, and her eyes and brows held a subtle gentleness.
Lin Hengzhi's breathing slowed down. After thinking for a moment, he moved his fingers, but before he could touch Yun Chiyi's hand, she excitedly tried to turn around. His eyes flickered, and he turned his head away to control his chaotic emotions.
Yun Chiyi grabbed Wang Jiajia's hand and pressed it against hers: "You're taller than me, how come your hands are the same size as mine?"
Wang Jiajia flung her hand away, raised her chin dismissively, and said, "Oh, so what if you have big hands? My fists aren't to be trifled with."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly stood up and ran a short distance after Xin Xiaoya, who was passing by: "Xin Xiaoya, go! Go!"
Xin Xiaoya couldn't quite hear Wang Jiajia's voice clearly, and kept nodding breathlessly. She looked up, and the sun broke through the clouds, a gentle breeze kissing her forehead and her flower-like red birthmark.
She suddenly felt her breathing become easier, her steps became lighter, her eyes were focused on the finish line, and she couldn't help but start sprinting.
This stunned everyone; a person who can still sprint at the end of a 3,000-meter race is not to be underestimated.
Wang Jiajia felt her blood boiling, and her feet moved uncontrollably as she ran alongside Xin Xiaoya: "Come on, you've already surpassed someone! You're in fifth place now! Keep going and get into the top three!"
People on both sides of the track gasped and shouted encouragement.
"That's amazing."
Yun Chiyi slowly patted her bottom and stood up, carrying the sweet soup Lin Hengzhi had given her, heading towards the finish line. Suddenly, she squatted down, smiling slyly: "Class monitor, you have to do your best this afternoon too. Since I've been cheering you on, you have to treat me to barbecue no matter what..."
That seems too easy. How could she possibly take advantage of him? After a moment's thought, she changed her mind: "How about you take me to the zoo, and then you can bring me some good food?"
Lin Heng slightly raised his chin, but did not agree.
Yun Chiyi twitched her nose slightly: "What are you standing there for? Let's high five each other as a pledge, hurry up, Xin Xiaoya is about to reach the finish line."
Lin Hengzhi looked at the fair hand, stared into the smiling eyes, and reached out to shake it.
How did it turn into a handshake? Yun Chiyi was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Never mind, a handshake counts, I'm leaving!"
Lin Hengzhi nodded: "Okay, Xishan Zoo isn't far either."
She ran towards the finish line with a smile, and Lin Hengzhi's gaze followed her back. His fingertips lingered on the fleeting warmth and held each other tightly.
Yun Chiyi, how come you always manage to extricate yourself so easily?
*
It was 2:30 p.m., some time before the basketball game was scheduled to begin.
After lunch, the three of them squeezed into the back row, carrying the snacks they had prepared earlier. The room wasn't hot, but the voices of the people around them were a bit noisy. Yun Chiyi yawned and frowned uncomfortably.
Wang Jiajia, with a lollipop in her mouth, said, "Look across the way, they even have a banner. They're completely infatuated with that Chen Cang kid."
Yun Chiyi glanced down; the athletes hadn't entered the field yet. She leaned to her left, resting her head on Wang Jiajia's shoulder, and drifted off to sleep.
Wang Jiajia added, "I'll cheer for Lin Hengzhi later too. He needs to have the right momentum and not fall behind."
Yun Chiyi chuckled: "When did you become so close to him?"
She put her arm around Xin Xiaoya's shoulder and said, "Xiaoya, I'm going to sleep for a while. Wake me up when it starts."
Xin Xiaoya nodded solemnly, her eyes sparkling; she seemed to be in a very good mood today.
I dozed off for a little while, and the voices of the people around me seemed to fade away.
Half-asleep, Yun Chiyi heard the whistle. As she opened her eyes, Xin Xiaoya shook her. With her eyes half-closed, she saw Lin Hengzhi, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and gray sweatpants, standing in the middle of the field.
His back was to her; he was tall and broad-shouldered, and the cold light in the room illuminated his profile. No matter what, Lin Hengzhi was quite good-looking, which was an advantage.
Yun Chiyi slowly regained consciousness, a mischievous glint in her eyes. Suddenly wanting to tease him, she raised her hand and shouted, "Class monitor, good luck!"
Lin Hengzhi turned around instantly upon hearing her voice. He had already noticed the pattern: when there was trouble, it was the class monitor or Teacher Lin; when there was no trouble, it was Lin Hengzhi. She was laughing so happily, probably because her prank had succeeded.
At this moment, Chen Cang waved to Yun Chiyi, and the female classmate on the other side responded excitedly.
Lin Hengzhi's teammates began to frantically scramble for the ball, but his movements remained perfectly composed. In truth, there was no need to worry too much about winning or losing this match. The bet made in the afternoon stipulated that regardless of the outcome, he would have to invite Yun Chiyi to the zoo. So, he just needed to stay calm and finish the game.
Wang Jiajia came to watch the fun, but seeing that the battle wasn't intense, she was immediately disappointed: "Can't we accidentally beat up Chen Cang during the competition?"
Yun Chiyi: "Haha, how much do you hate him?"
Wang Jiajia crossed her arms: "I hate a lot of people, who does he think he is? Lin Hengzhi isn't worried at all, he has no competitive spirit at all."
Yun Chiyi tore open a potato chip box and handed it to Xin Xiaoya, saying slowly, "It's only just begun. Being anxious will only make things chaotic. But he really doesn't like to compete, otherwise he would be number one in the whole school, not just in academics but in every aspect."
“You understand him best.” Wang Jiajia crossed her legs and shook her foot.
Yun Chiyi was momentarily doubtful. Shouldn't she know Lin Hengzhi inside and out? All this information had been organized by the system.
She narrowed her eyes, the red mole on her eyelid revealing a touch of allure. Her gaze automatically followed Lin Hengzhi's movements, as if he had performed quite well today. Under the opponent's skillful tactics, he stepped sideways and overtook someone's shoulder, taking the first 2 points.
The entire audience froze for a few seconds, then erupted in screams, like fireworks being lit.
Yun Chiyi heard the people in the back row asking who was in white and why they had never seen him before. They thought he looked so cool calmly adjusting the team after scoring!
She continued watching the game with great interest. One ball changed the atmosphere on the field. Chen Cang gradually got into the game. He changed his usual playful attitude and began to calmly command the game. As he walked face to face with Lin Hengzhi, he saw the other's cold expression and his brow twitched.
He said that Lin Hengzhi was simply his nemesis.
A few members of the school basketball team, as if in a provocative manner, walked past Lin Hengzhi and whispered something to him.
After listening, Lin Hengzhi calmly raised his eyes and turned to focus on the direction of the ball, seemingly unconcerned about what they were saying.
Yun Chiyi stood up from her seat, her eyes narrowing slightly: "You bitch."
Wang Jiajia pulled her back: "Lin Hengzhi isn't angry, why are you?"
Yun Chiyi crossed her arms in front of her chest, subconsciously adopting a defensive posture: "A righteous person like me can't stand seeing anyone resorting to underhanded tactics."
Fortunately, Lin Hengzhi was unaffected; on the contrary, his eyes lit up with joy the moment he saw her stand up.
The game was getting increasingly tense, and Lin Hengzhi was drenched in sweat. His clothes were soaked, and the muscles in his back were faintly visible under his white T-shirt. During halftime, he stood down and looked up. People around him were handing him towels to wipe their sweat, but he stood alone, looking somewhat out of place.
"Can I still ask her for a towel like this?" Yun Chiyi pulled a towel out of her bag, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it forcefully at his shoulder.
Lin Hengzhi caught it and wiped the sweat from the corners of his eyes.
This action caused a stir among those around him.
Yun Chiyi's ears burned, and she said, "What's all the noise about!"
