CH 28.2

Chapter 28.2:  Put me down first.

Zhou Jingze ran with Xu Sui in his arms. Although Xu Sui was confused, she could still identify the person in front of her as Zhou Jingze. He ran very fast that Xu Sui grabbed the corner of his clothes. Occasionally, she bumped into his chest from time to time, very hard and hot.

The surrounding pavement was full of his breath, cold and strong. Xu Sui felt that the blood vessels in her skin were about to explode, especially when such a reputable person was carrying her running around. The attention she received along the way made her even more embarrassed.

Xu Sui moved against his broad chest and said in a low voice, “Put me down first.”

Zhou Jingze lowered his eyelashes and glanced at her. His lips were pale, and there was no trace of blood on his face.

“Almost there.”

“You put me down first; I can walk myself.” Xu Sui’s tone was a little embarrassed.

She struggled several times, until she raised her eyes and met his deep gaze. He was emotionless and very cold, holding her in his arms. His jawline was sharp and cold, and for a long time, he was silent before calling out her full name:

“Xu Sui, don’t talk now.”

He seemed a little angry, and Xu Sui didn’t dare to speak.

Not long after the basketball game started, Hu Xixi quickly fixed her gaze on Lu Wenbai. From the very beginning, her mind wasn’t on the game.

Seeing that Lu Wenbai finished moving the boxes of water, Hu Xixi immediately turned around and followed him. His figure was thin and tall, and his back was taut like a bow.

After Lu Wenbai walked ahead a few distances, he turned to the left and entered the equipment room. Seeing Hu Xixi was still following, Lu Wenbai’s eyebrows were full of hostility, and his voice was cold:

“Why are you following me?”

“I’m coming to wash my hands,” Hu Xixi’s voice was sweet.

The building blocked the front, and there was a hint of shade at the back. Lu Wenbai had just finished moving things, and his hair was a little wet. Seeing that his temples were sweating a little, Hu Xixi immediately handed over a wet tissue.

Lu Wenbai glanced at her expressionlessly. He turned on the faucet, and cold water immediately flowed out. Without hesitation, he stretched his head directly under the faucet.

Two minutes later, a hand with pale skin and gray-green blood vessels fastened on the faucet. The sound of running water stopped, and Lu Wenbai slowly straightened his waist.

He turned his face and ran his hand through his hair. The fine water droplets fell onto Hu Xixi’s hands inadvertently. She felt that her entire arm was numb.

Lu Wenbai walked forward expressionlessly. When he walked to the left, Hu Xixi followed him to the left. When he went to the right, Hu Xixi also went to the right, like a piece of candy that couldn’t be shaken off.

“Hey, what kind of girl do you like?”

“Hey.”

“Lu Wenbai!”

Hu Xixi saw that Lu Wenbai was completely ignoring her; the young lady got angry and immediately went up to find him for a clear answer.

Unexpectedly, Lu Wenbai suddenly stopped, his eyes staring blankly ahead. For the first time, Hu Xixi saw a different emotion on Lu Wenbai’s unchanging cold face.

She followed Lu Wenbai’s line of sight. There was a girl holding a boy not far away. She was wearing a black suspender shirt. Her legs were long and straight and under her shorts, she had a tattoo similar to a dragon on her calf. Her black hair and red lips made her appear glamorous and tempered.

Hu Xixi has never seen such a girl before, breathtakingly beautiful and demonic.

Lu Wenbai’s stern face gradually became gloomy, and his eyelashes drooped like a plaster statue with no expression and no vitality.

“Are you okay?” Hu Xixi asked him.

Lu Wenbai turned around suddenly. The two were very close, and he lowered his neck and looked down at Hu Xixi. The corners of his thin lips raised in a mocking angle: “Didn’t you ask me what I like? I like thin girls, so you are not my type.”

“It’s really annoying to be followed over and over again.” Lu Wenbai looked away from her and left without looking back.

Hu Xixi was stunned on the spot and never recovered. From childhood to now, all she received were flowers and compliments. She was taught to boldly fight for what she liked.

Did she do something wrong?

It turned out that Lu Wenbai really thought she was annoying.

Is she fat?

Thinking of this, Hu Xixi couldn’t bear it any longer. Tears fell from her cheeks, and her black eyes were red; she scolded him: “Bastard, scum, mean devil.”

Hu Xixi hid in the aisle at the back of the sports equipment room and cried. After crying, she wet her red and swollen eyes with cold water.

Then, she returned to the basketball court with swollen eyes and a disappointed face. Many had already left the court, and the surroundings were empty. Only one or two boys were left to clean up the basketball court.

“Where’s everyone?” Hu Xixi walked over and asked.

A boy squatted down and put the basketballs into his net pocket one by one before saying: “The game is already over.”

“Then where’s the girl who was helping out here? Shoulder-length hair, small face and fair skin, where did she go?” Hu Xixi’s voice was a little hoarse after crying.

The boy paused for a second while holding the basketball and tried to recall: “Oh, you mean that girl. She suddenly fainted in the middle of the game and was carried to the nurse’s office by Zhou Jingze…”
