Chapter 26.
With worries about the situation in the evening, Qian Yirong welcomed the afternoon physical education class. The physical education classes at Shengde High School were different from those at ordinary high schools. There were even some equestrian courses, but this required students to prepare their own riding gear. Some people, such as Mu Zexuan, even prepared their own purebred horses.
Because students will prepare their own sports equipment, they usually decide what to do in physical education class. However, there are usually not many people coming to the gym. This is one of the reasons why Xu Baiqing was locked in the equipment room of the gymnasium in the plot and could not get any help from anyone.
Qian Yirong originally thought that although she had already arranged a comfortable corner in the equipment room, it would certainly be better if Xu Baiqing was not locked up. However, when she saw Xu Baiqing happily following her to the gymnasium, Qian Yirong knew that this plot was inevitable.
Xu Baiqing followed Qian Yirong and found that she did not avoid her anymore. The anxiety in her heart disappeared at once. She looked at Qian Yirong's hands hanging at her side and tentatively moved her hand over. Seeing that Qian Yirong did not make any big avoidance movements, she first stretched out her little finger and quietly hooked it around hers, and then slowly held her whole hand.
Feeling Xu Baiqing putting her slightly cold hand into her own, Qian Yirong paused but did not resist. The awkwardness caused by yesterday's events disappeared in today's plot.
The people in the physical education class dispersed, and not many people paid attention to the movements of Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing. However, this did not include Bai Jingqiu, who had been observing Qian Yirong. When she saw Qian Yirong letting Xu Baiqing hold her hand, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. In order to teach Xu Baiqing a lesson, Qian Yirong, who hated Xu Baiqing, really gave it her all and let her hold hands like this.
The two of us, including the person following behind me, came to the gymnasium. There were not many people in the gymnasium. Everyone was exercising with some simple sports equipment. Qian Yirong didn't want to lock Xu Baiqing in the equipment room right now, so she simply took her to a remote corner of the audience seats and sat down.
Xu Baiqing might not have thought too much about it at first because he could be alone with Qian Yirong, but when he saw her sitting in the audience with him, he knew that something must be happening again.
"Rongrong, do you want me to cooperate with you in doing something again?" Xu Baiqing asked softly while leaning on Qian Yirong's shoulder.
"...You guessed it?" Qian Yirong replied without hiding anything.
"Well, after all, Rongrong, you've shown it a little too obviously." Xu Baiqing replied slowly. She didn't mind cooperating with Qian Yirong in some harmless "bullying", and after she knew her feelings for Qian Yirong, Xu Baiqing was looking forward to the "reward" she could get from Qian Yirong.
"Are you afraid of the dark or confined spaces when you are alone?" Since Xu Baiqing had already guessed it, Qian Yirong asked directly.
"Although I'm not afraid of what Rongrong said, I hate someone." After hearing Qian Yirong's words, Xu Baiqing almost immediately understood what she meant.
"..." Qian Yirong was silent for a while, then she asked, "Did you bring your cell phone?"
"I left it in the classroom. I didn't bring it with me. Why do you ask?" Xu Baiqing said.
"Then go back and get it now." Qian Yirong said, wanting Xu Baiqing to go back and get his cell phone. Although she wanted to lock Xu Baiqing in the equipment room according to the plot, if Xu Baiqing had his cell phone with him, he could ask someone for help and he wouldn't have to be locked up all night.
"No need, I don't check my phone often anyway." Xu Baiqing refused with a smile.
Qian Yirong was silent. Looking at Xu Baiqing, who was clearly aware of what he might do but refused the fastest way to find help, she felt a complicated feeling in her heart.
A little further behind the two of them, Bai Jingqiu looked at Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing's intimate posture in surprise. She really didn't understand why Xu Baiqing, who had been targeted by Qian Yirong for a long time, could still be so close to her.
If someone treated her like Qian Yirong treated Xu Baiqing, if she was at a disadvantage like Xu Baiqing at the beginning, she could endure it temporarily, but now Xu Baiqing clearly had the upper hand. If it were her, she would definitely retaliate a hundredfold or a thousandfold. However, Xu Baiqing did not retaliate against Qian Yirong at all. Instead, he became closer to her. This was a situation that Bai Jingqiu could not understand at all.
It's a pity that she is too far away from Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing, and they are talking too quietly. Otherwise, Bai Jingqiu really wants to know what they will say when they are alone. Even if Xu Baiqing wants to show a simple and kind personality to the outside world, will he reveal it when they are alone?
However, looking at Qian Yirong's situation, she didn't want to be afraid of Xu Baiqing at all. Bai Jingqiu even suspected that Xu Baiqing was the kind of person with special fetishes, so he kept sticking to Qian Yirong who was rude to her. Thinking of this, Bai Jingqiu couldn't help but shiver, and the look he gave Xu Baiqing became a little strange.
Xu Baiqing has always been very sensitive to gazes directed at him, so when he noticed an unfriendly gaze falling on him, he immediately followed the gaze.
However, she only had time to see a little bit of the clothes, but she was familiar with the figure who was dodging in a hurry. Based on her memory, Xu Baiqing quickly locked onto the person who seemed to be monitoring her and Qian Yirong.
It was Bai Jingqiu who was in the same class with her. Unlike Qian Yirong who was unabashedly arrogant in class, Bai Jingqiu had a good reputation in the class. Although her family background was only at the bottom of the school, her classmates had a good impression of her because she was always gentle and kind.
However, Xu Baiqing was an observant person, so he had noticed the incongruity in her a long time ago. Also, although she did not express it clearly, Xu Baiqing realized from some details that she must like Mu Zexuan.
Before, Bai Jingqiu had always vaguely ignored her, but now she was secretly following her and Qian Yirong. Xu Baiqing knew that the opportunity for Bai Jingqiu to change started when Mu Zexuan took the initiative to find her.
Xu Baiqing knew that Bai Jingqiu regarded her as a love rival, but given her personality, she would not take the initiative to deal with her. So Xu Baiqing had already guessed what she would do, and this also explained Qian Yirong's abnormality today.
Xu Baiqing glanced meaningfully at the corner of the clothes over there. She was willing to be "bullied" by Qian Yirong in a way that could almost be described as flirting, but that didn't mean she wanted to see Qian Yirong being used by others.
Although Xu Baiqing had known Qian Yirong for some time, Qian Yirong would not be fooled by Bai Jingqiu's unpresentable provocation. There must be other reasons why she was willing to cooperate.
But Xu Baiqing only helps her relatives and not the people. She will definitely stand on Qian Yirong's side. She doesn't want to see Bai Jingqiu taking advantage of Qian Yirong, so after this matter is over, she will help Qian Yirong get it back.
Bai Jingqiu, who was hurriedly avoiding Xu Baiqing's sight, suddenly felt a chill on her back, as if she was being stared at by some terrible beast. She couldn't help but shrink inward and hide herself deeper.
When the sense of crisis disappeared, she finally stuck her head out from behind, only to find that Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing had disappeared. She quickly stood up and looked around, but still didn't see them. Unable to bear the thought of Xu Baiqing's miserable appearance, Bai Jingqiu could only leave with regret.
Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing had already arrived at the door of the equipment room deep in the gymnasium. Xu Baiqing raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at the equipment room in front of her. She had already guessed what Qian Yirong wanted to do this time.
Qian Yirong took a look at the door that she had tampered with in advance. Originally, the automatic door of the equipment room could be opened from the inside after it was closed, but after she arranged the corner of the equipment room, she tampered with the door. After the door of the equipment room closed automatically, it could no longer be opened from the inside.
"...I want to play badminton. Please go to the equipment room and get me a pair of rackets and badminton." Qian Yirong recited her lines from the plot dryly.
"Okay." Xu Baiqing raised his eyebrows at Qian Yirong, and the corners of his mouth turned up, forming an arc of interest.
Xu Baiqing walked forward and opened the door of the equipment room. The slightly sluggish feeling made Xu Baiqing feel at ease. When she first entered Shengde, she came to the equipment room of the gymnasium to borrow things inside, so she was not unfamiliar with this automatic door of the equipment room.
So she noticed the change in the door, but Xu Baiqing acted as if he didn't notice anything wrong. He let go of her hand and entered the equipment room. The automatic door slowly closed, and Qian Yirong stood at the door with a conflicted look on her face.
But just when the automatic door in front of her was about to close with a gap just enough for one person, Qian Yirong was grabbed by the wrist and pulled into the door. She had not expected Xu Baiqing to do this. Qian Yirong staggered and was then caught in Xu Baiqing's arms. With a "click" sound, the door of the equipment room closed behind Qian Yirong.
After Qian Yirong steadied herself, she turned around suddenly and saw the door of the equipment room completely closed. She blinked blankly, not expecting such a thing to happen.
She had originally planned to lock Xu Baiqing in and then support him outside so that she could handle any problems at any time. But now she was pulled in by Xu Baiqing and locked in the equipment room. What's worse is that she didn't have a cell phone with her, so it was impossible for her to call for help.
"You..." Qian Yirong looked back at Xu Baiqing, but could not say a word of blame. After all, it was she who wanted to lock Xu Baiqing here in the first place. Qian Yirong could only say that it was all her own fault for the current situation.
"What's wrong with me?" Xu Baiqing blinked innocently and looked at Qian Yirong and said, "I just don't know what kind of badminton racket you like, so I wanted you to choose one with me."
