Chasing Summer - Chapter 31

When Lin Zhexia came home after dinner, Lin He and Wei Ping took turns to praise her for winning the prize.

Wei Ping: “Let me just say, your talent for speech is obvious to all. In fact, Uncle has already seen it.”

Lin He was also very satisfied: “This time I played pretty well, you should go and do your homework.”

Holding the certificate, Wei Ping was more excited than his own promotion: “Uncle will post this certificate for you right away, or post it on the opposite side of the dining table, so you can see it every time you eat.”

Lin He was a little speechless: “Why don’t you post it on the door of your house, so that everyone passing by can see it.”

“Good idea,” Wei Ping turned his head and asked, “What do Xia Xia think?”

Lin Zhexia, who has a talent for speech, said: “…I think it’s better to restrain my brilliance, so as not to make others feel inferior.”

“…”

Several people chatted briefly.

Lin Zhexia went back to her room, put down her schoolbag, and unzipped it.

She paused for a moment, and took out the rabbit keychain hidden in the middle of her schoolbag.

After thinking about it, she put the little rabbit keychain on the desk so that she could accompany her to do her homework.

But just after putting it on, she was worried, and put it in a cabinet that could cover the dust.

Soon next Tuesday, the notice to hold a sports meeting with the Experimental High School will be officially issued, and all classes will actively sign up and prepare.

The sports committee member of the seventh class is usually an idle job, and it is rare that he is so busy that his feet do not touch the ground.

The sports committee took the watch and yelled: “Who else wants to sign up? Now there is only one girl short of the relay.”

“no one there?”

“This is such a rare opportunity to exercise. It only happens once a year. Shouldn’t everyone cherish it?”

Lin Zhexia glanced at the others, but no one made a sound, so she raised her hand and said, “I can, fill me in.”

After school in the evening, she and Chi Yao happened to meet He Yang at the gate of the community.

Lin Zhexia waved at He Yang: “Spiritual alumni—”

He Yang came over with his bag on his back: “I never expected that you would be the one to pick me up at the beginning of school, but this time we will hold a sports meeting together. I really have become a spiritual alumni.”

Three people go together.

He Yang asked: “What projects have you applied for?”

Lin Zhexia: “I applied for the relay.”

He Yang turned his head: “Where is my Brother Yao?”

Chi Yao nonchalantly threw two words at him: “Basketball.”

He Yang “fucked”: “I also play basketball. I originally planned to lead the way, but I didn’t expect to have you, so it won’t be difficult for me to pretend to be aggressive tomorrow.”

Lin Zhexia nodded, deeply convinced: “In terms of pretending to be aggressive, you really can’t pretend to be him.”

Chi Yao didn’t speak.

But he made a small movement that he would do occasionally, wrapping his hands around the back of Lin Zhexia’s neck, spread his fingers, and pinched gently threateningly.

This time was different from the last time, when his fingers were cold from the popsicles – this time they were hot.

Lin Zhexia froze for a moment.

Fortunately, no one noticed the difference at all, He Yang continued to say: “How about this, Brother Xia, I beg you to do something.”

Lin Zhexia: “Huh?”

He Yang began to imagine: “During the basketball game tomorrow, you can come and bring me some water to support the scene. Otherwise, when I leave the court, no one will care about me, it will be really embarrassing. If possible, it is best to shout a few more emotionally.” Saying my name, pretending I’m popular.”

Lin Zhexia felt that the touch on her neck just now hadn’t dissipated, and she was a little distracted. In fact, she didn’t listen carefully to what he was saying, only heard “send water”.

His mouth moved faster than his brain, and he agreed very simply: “Okay.”

“…”

On the day of the sports meeting, everyone took a bus to the large open-air gymnasium near the school.

The outside of the gymnasium was full of cars, and the people from the two schools together made the inside and outside of the stadium look very crowded.

The school uniform of the experimental high school is blue, which is easy to distinguish.

Teachers are stationed at the entrance of the venue to prevent students from leaving the venue early if they do not obey the rules.

The inside of the hall is circular, with stands on the outside and sports grounds on the inside.

Lin Zhexia followed the class team into the arena, sat in the stands in a daze after the school leaders spoke.

The progress of the competition was very fast, and it didn’t take long for most of the morning’s events to pass.

Chen Lin was going to go to the long jump later, and before leaving, she asked, “What are you thinking about?”

Lin Zhexia: “I was thinking, why did I agree to someone’s very boring request yesterday.”

Chen Lin: “?”

“Forget it, it’s okay,” she said, “You go to the competition and come on.”

After Chen Lin left, she looked at the water she bought for He Yang in advance and sighed.

Why would you agree?

In fact, she knew the answer herself.

Because she was distracted yesterday.

And the reason for her distraction is that she seems to have recently begun to enlarge some details of the relationship between her and Chi Yao.

These details can easily move her.

Lin Zhexia didn’t think about it anymore, she took out her mobile phone and found that He Yang had sent her a bunch of messages 20 minutes ago.

– I’ll play later, Brother Xia, don’t forget.

– Look at me, I’m number 12.

– Can you find me? I’m not too ordinary in the crowd. Even if I am a little ordinary, based on our years of acquaintance, you should be able to see me in the vast crowd.

– Whether I can save face in the middle school attached to the experiment is up to you.

– Invite you to drink milk tea in the evening, thank you very much! !

Lin Zhexia replied: I want to drink thirty cups.

Da Zhuang: …Leaving aside whether I have enough pocket money, can you finish drinking? ?

Lin Zhexia took advantage of the fire and robbed: I drink three cups a month for ten months.

After replying to the message, she put down her phone and went to see the venue.

There are a lot of people in the field, there are people running on the track, there are referees blowing whistles, and there are scorekeepers who stand at the end of each event to record the scores.

The basketball game is arranged on the right side, and the jerseys of the players from the Experimental High School are all written with the school name, so it is not difficult to identify.

The second half seemed to be coming to an end, she found He Yang who was dribbling, and was about to pick up the bottle of water on the side and get off the stands ahead of time, when a force suddenly came from behind – a hand on her shoulder She pressed it back.

She turned around and saw Chi Yao who had already put on his jersey.

The jersey of the No. 2 Middle School is black, and the number 0 is written on the wide jersey. This number looks inexplicably wanton, just like the pupils of the boy who are cold but lit by the sun at the moment.

The stands are layer by layer, and there is no block between each layer.

Chi Yao was squatting on the upper step at the moment, and after pushing her back, his hand turned again halfway, and took the bottle of water in her hand.

Although Lin Zhexia really wanted to break the contract, she still had to do what He Yang had promised, so she said, “If you want water, you can buy it yourself.”

Chi Yao: “I’m too lazy to go.”

Lin Zhexia: “…”

Lin Zhexia thought that he was going to play later, so he took a step back: “Then I’ll buy it for you later, this bottle will be given to He Yang first.”

Only then did Chi Yao say, “I didn’t intend to rob him.”

He paused, and then said in a condescending manner: “I’ll take it to him.”

Lin Zhexia: “?”

She and He Yang agreed to deliver water, but for some reason he suddenly wanted to mess with it.

Lin Zhexia had expectations that she didn’t know, and she asked, “Why don’t you let me send it?”

Holding the water, Chi Yao glanced at her and said, “Is it hard to understand?”

It’s hard to understand.

Lin Zhexia was about to nod when she heard the man say again:

“I’m stingy and don’t want to see him show off.”

“…”

This man is very scheming.

Lin Zhexia was shocked by his righteous attitude, and forgot to stop for a while, so when she recovered, Chi Yao had already gone down from the stands carrying the bottle of water she was going to give to He Yang.

After a while, she lowered her head, clicked on the chat history with He Yang, and sent two sentences.

– Da Zhuang, take care of yourself.

– i can’t save you

On the court, the referee blows his whistle.

He Yang stopped his steps to rush up to grab the ball. He bent down to catch his breath, and while fanning the collar of his jersey, he waited for Lin Zhexia to come over to support him.

He’s all set-

After a while, he will take the bottle of water in the most elegant and handsome posture in front of everyone.

He still has to pretend to be cold, to pretend to be normal—

He Yang was thinking about it, he adjusted his breathing, and heard a familiar voice in the next second.

“Hey.”

A bottle of water appeared in front of him, and he looked up along the bottle of water, and what he saw was his brother Yao’s exaggerated face: “Your water.”

He Yang had mixed feelings in his heart: “Why did you give it to me?”

Chi Yao: “Is there a problem?”

He Yang: “There’s a big problem. If you look around the basketball court, who the **** is the boy bringing water to the boy!”

Chi Yao remained expressionless: “So you are more popular than them all.”

He Yang: “…I thank you.”

Chi Yao: “Others just attract the attention of some girls, but what you conquer is your opponent.”

He Yang: “…I really thank you.”

Chi Yao let go of his hand: “You’re welcome.”

A few minutes later, the basketball court was replaced.

The scoreboard was reset to zero, and the game in Cheng’an No. 2 Middle School officially started.

Lin Zhexia was sitting in the stands. Cheng An fell behind in the first half and was replaced at the match point in the second half. Chi Yao seemed to be ready to play. She saw He Yang come back amidst the shouts of “Chi Yao” who didn’t know who took the lead. news.

– i got it

-As soon as I played, many people asked me who brought me water just now

– There is also a contact information, I can’t even give it.

In these few lines, the first important thing Lin Zhexia grasped was the phrase “I can’t even give it”.

She typed back: Did you give it?

Da Zhuang: I gave it, so many people are asking, I don’t know how to refuse it, so I gave it

“A lot of people are calling Chi Yao’s name,” Chen Lin said after returning to her seat after all the projects, “The most outrageous thing is that within five minutes after Chi Yao was replaced, even the girls from the school next door were inquiring.”

Tang Shuxuan also came over to chat: “I heard it just now, some people from the Experimental High School were chatting.”

Chen Lin was amazed: “This popularity—I never expected that Chi Yao not only kills the world in our school, but also kills it.”

Lin Zhexia listened, but did not speak.

Chen Lin noticed her reaction and asked her: “What’s wrong with you, why don’t you look very happy?”

Lin Zhexia looked up: “Huh?”

Then she subconsciously denied it, “No.”

Chen Lin: “Are you still screaming? The corners of your mouth are drooping.”

Lin Zhexia didn’t even realize that she was unhappy.

The chat history between her and He Yang still stays at “I don’t know how to refuse, so I gave it to me”.

In No. 2 Middle School, other than when the school just started, there were still people eager to try.

After that, no one dared to ask for Chi Yao’s contact information.

Everyone gradually acquiesced to a principle: don’t get close to Chi Yao.

But the people in the middle school attached to the experiment didn’t know this, so she hadn’t faced such a thing for a long time.

Although she was a little unhappy when she first started school—but the unhappiness at that time was closer to the unhappiness of not wanting to share friends.

It seems to be very different from the unhappy one now.

Lin Zhexia thought about it and still felt that she really had no reason to be unhappy because of this, probably because of other emotions: “It should be because the sun is too hot, I feel a little bored.”

Chen Lin reached out and touched her forehead: “I don’t have a fever, why don’t I change places with you? My side is a little bit covered, so it doesn’t get too much sun.”

Lin Zhexia: “Okay, if you feel hot later, tell me, and we will switch back.”

After changing positions, Lin Zhexia continued to watch the game.

In all fairness, Chi Yao’s voice was not without reason.

Even if the whole venue is full of people, everyone’s eyes will be automatically attracted as soon as he appears.

Cheng’an fell behind by a lot of points in the first half. After he came on the field, the situation began to change.

The teenager wearing the No. 0 ball uniform breaks through the opponent’s basket to create an offensive opportunity after entering the field—

On the scoreboard, Chengan’s score has been rising all the way.

The sun was shining brightly, and all the light of midsummer seemed to be cast on the young man on the court. He passed the ball behind his back, tore through the opposing defense net all the way, and scored the last goal at the buzzer, completely reversing the score.

A scream came from Lin Zhexia’s ear: “Chi Yao—”

If it wasn’t for her delusions, from the moment Chi Yao appeared on the field, the cheerleaders who were cheering for the experimental high school seemed to have lowered their decibels. After lowering the decibel, some whispers began to appear around: “Who is he?”

“The No. 2 middle school next door…”

“They are all shouting, take medicine? Which one is taking which medicine?”

“…”

After a while.

Their topic turned into: “He’s gone, it’s strange, no one brings water. If I had known earlier, I would have gone there just now.”

In a whisper, someone said:

“It seems that he has a bad personality, and everyone thinks he should die of thirst.”

“…”

Lin Zhexia was a little speechless upon hearing this.

Chi Yao is a person with some skills.

After the basketball game, Chi Yao was no longer seen on the field.

Class 1 and Class 7 are far away from each other, and it is not convenient for her to go and find her.

On the court, the events were round after round, Lin Zhexia watched absent-mindedly, and finally couldn’t help but secretly took out his mobile phone and clicked on the chat box with Chi Yao.

She deleted and typed in the chat box, and finally sent a sentence: What are you doing?

Two or three minutes later, the phone turned on.

– in the locker room

– change clothes

Lin Zhexia typed back: Oh

Then, she stamped word by word: I thought you were chatting with many people.

-?

– where did they come from

very strange.

Just a simple question mark and four words made her feel a little better.

Lin Zhexia replied to him: They are some young and ignorant people who went blind and were accidentally deceived by you.

Chigou: Go to the doctor when you are sick

Lin Zhexia sent an emoji of shaking her fist.

After a while, just as she was about to put down her phone to watch the game seriously, the phone in her palm vibrated slightly again.

Chigou: [image]

What Chi Yao sent was a screenshot.

On the screenshot, it is the personal settings page. In the column of “Add me as a friend”, all the methods are displayed as closed.

Wechat ID, business card recommendation… all methods are closed.

At the same time, He Yang also sent her a bunch of messages angrily.

-I go

– Chi Yao is too ruthless

– Refuse to add friends

– How can there be such a person?

-Cold, pretending to be a criminal! !

– I also want to change, I also want to be mysterious, and I also want to pretend that many people add me and I am annoying.

– I’ll change it right now! ! !

Lin Zhexia: “…”

She copied and pasted the words Chi Yao sent to her just now and sent it to He Yang: Go to the doctor when you are sick

Chen Lin chatted with Tang Shuxuan at the side, and halfway through, she glanced at Lin Zhexia again, concerned about her situation: “Yes, are you still bored now?”

“It’s not boring anymore,” Lin Zhexia put away the phone and said, “It seems to be windy.”
