run errands(1/2)
What surprised Yin Zhiyao was that since he knocked over her insulated lunch box that night and was scolded by her, Qiao Zhengyang rarely came to trouble her.
Even the quarrels were reduced a lot. He ignored her when he saw her and left in a hurry, as if he was afraid of her.
This kid suddenly stopped, and Yin Zhiyao was really not used to it.
However, this period of time coincided with military training. Yin Zhiyao was exhausted every day and had no time or energy to ask Qiao Zhengyang what happened.
In the afternoon, when the sun was at its strongest, the instructor asked the students to rest under the shade of a tree to escape the heat. Yin Zhiyao sat on the grass under the tree, and Yu Bai handed her an ice-cold soda.
Yin Zhiyao unscrewed the bottle cap for her very consciously, and Yu Bai smiled sweetly at her: "Thank you."
Yin Zhiyao looked at the half bottle of Coca-Cola in his hand, and looked at Yu Bai's weak document like he was sipping white wine, and asked curiously: "You can't even unscrew the bottle cap, you have such little strength, then what?
Why do you practice lifting barbells more often?"
Yu Bai grinned. If she could ask such a question, it seemed that she was a real straight woman.
At this moment, the bell rang, and several boys walked out of the teaching building surrounded by Cheng Wan, holding basketballs in their hands and walking towards the basketball court in the distance.
He was wearing a clean blue and white school uniform with no zipper, revealing the maple leaf red basketball jersey underneath, which made his skin look particularly fair.
Standing in the sun, it seems as if the whole person is glowing.
Of course, not only Yin Zhiyao saw him, but also all the girls around her saw her, discussing in low voices restlessly——
"Cheng Wang is the school idol and no one would object."
"He is simply my ideal boyfriend."
"It's mine too."
"And I."
"plus one."
...
Yu Bai turned to Yin Zhiyao and asked, "Is Cheng Wan your ideal type?"
Yin Zhiyao's heartbeat suddenly jumped for no reason, and he blurted out: "How is that possible!"
"Let me give you an example. Suppose he is your ideal type, but you lift a barbell in front of him. Do you think he will treat you as a girl or as a buddy?" Yu Bai said calmly: "Look, there are so many people around you.
Girls are all staring at him eagerly, why do you think you stand out?"
Yin Zhiyao looked at the girls around him. Their eyes followed Cheng Wan's figure and drifted to the direction of the basketball court, looking at his vigorous and elegant figure.
"Isn't being strong an advantage?"
Yu Bai: "What do you think?"
Yin Zhiyao lowered his head and thought for a while, feeling that Yu Bai's words actually made some sense, and said seriously: "Then I will go back and practice wrestling."
Yu Bai:......
What do you want to do!
At this time, Xu Ruotong came over with a thermos cup and sat under the tree with her friends.
When the girls saw her coming, as if they were seeing the royal palace, they quickly shut up and stopped discussing freely about Cheng Wan.
A girl who was familiar with Xu Ruotong couldn't help but asked her out of curiosity: "Ruotong, I heard that you know Cheng Wan?"
Xu Ruotong smiled generously and said loudly: "Yes, our two families know each other. His grandfather and my grandfather are comrades in arms and have a very good relationship. We have been childhood sweethearts since childhood."
As soon as the words "childhood sweetheart" came out, the girls immediately understood what was going on without any further questioning.
It seems that the rumors are true. Xu Ruotong and Cheng Wan have not escaped...
What a couple.
The girls showed envy towards Xu Ruotong, mixed with some jealousy.
After all, they are of the same family, with a talented man and a good-looking woman. This comparison makes the little flames in other people's hearts look dim and inferior.
Yin Zhiyao lowered his head and tugged at the grass, feeling a touch of melancholy in his heart.
Yes, he is the ideal type of so many girls.
But this person hangs heavily in Yin Zhiyao's heart and has become her most precious secret.
...
After the military training ended, girls wearing loose camouflage uniforms walked out of the track and field field in twos and threes.
Yin Zhiyao wanted to go to the cafeteria to buy spicy potatoes in return for the Coke that Yu Bai had just invited her to drink. The two of them followed the flow of dark green people and walked towards the cafeteria opposite the basketball court.
After entering the basketball court, the girls couldn't help but stop and look at the playground, watching the tall and handsome teenagers playing basketball on the basketball court.
Yin Zhiyao noticed that Xu Ruotong, who was directly in front of him, naturally stopped.
On the court, the boys were sweating freely, making rough roars from time to time, and the physical contact and collision were quite powerful. The whole place exuded youthful male hormones.
Among the tall boys, Cheng Wan was undoubtedly the most dazzling one. At least, Yin Zhiyao locked his eyes on him at a glance.
He dribbled the ball for a layup, his mouth slightly curved, and his natural smile gave people a friendly feeling that made people defenseless.
However, everything was just an illusion. His movements were extremely offensive, and several boys tried to block him but were unable to prevent him.
He took off lightly and scored a layup. The court erupted into loud cheers, mixed with the excited shouts of boys and girls.
The girl next to Yin Zhiyao was shouting like crazy, like a little girl who had seen an idol, cheering excitedly, shouting things like "The senior is so handsome, the senior is killing me".
Cheng Wan's gesture of making a layup did not arouse much reaction from Yin Zhiyao. Instead, he picked up his jersey and wiped the sweat from his face. The sight of his plate-shaped abdominal muscles made her heart beat faster.
During the intermission, Xu Ruotong walked towards Cheng Wan in a generous manner.
A group of people eating melons exchanged glances and looked at her——
"There's a show!"
"The rumors are confirmed."
"Your ideal type... Mingcao has a owner."
"Let's break up, girls."
Xu Ruotong took out a bottle of soda from his schoolbag and handed it to Cheng Wan: "Brother Cheng Wan, here you go."
Cheng Wan wiped his sweat with a towel, turned around, saw the can in her hand, smiled politely and said, "Oh, thank you."
After thanking him, he did not accept the soda offered by Xu Ruotong. He turned his head and saw Yin Zhiyao in the last row of the crowd, and waved to her: "Little devil, come here."
Yin Zhiyao pointed to himself: "Me?"
"It's you, come here."
Under the doubtful looks of the girls, Yin Zhiyao bravely walked towards Cheng Wan.
Cheng Wang took out twenty yuan from his bag and handed it to Yin Zhiyao: "Run an errand for my brother and go to the supermarket to buy a bottle of mineral water."
"ah?"
Yin Zhiyao looked at Xu Ruotong beside her. She gritted her teeth slightly, showing a slight unwillingness.
She took the money, glanced at Xu Ruotong, and whispered in a negotiating tone: "Don't you... have water?"
"Go as you are told, there are so many words to talk about." Cheng Wang gave her a gentle nudge: "With the remaining money, I'll treat you to snacks."
Yin Zhiyao took the money, turned around and walked towards the canteen. When he was far away, he turned back and saw Cheng Wan coming on the court to continue playing.
But Xu Ruotong was still holding her soda, standing awkwardly on the edge of the playground, accepting the looks of questioning or ridicule from the girls.
Childhood sweethearts shouldn't be treated like this.
Now it seems that...
The rumors are actually not true.
*
Yin Zhiyao bought Cheng Wan mineral water and hurried back to the basketball court. Most of the classmates had dispersed because the class teacher said in the group that they would go back to the classroom to give homework after the military training. Only Yu Bai was still waiting for her.
.
Yin Zhiyao handed a bottle of soda water to Cheng Wan and returned the seventeen yuan in change to him.
Cheng Wan didn't answer and said, "The rest is the errand fee for you. You can use it to buy snacks for yourself."
"No need." Yin Zhiyao whispered, "I have money."
Cheng Wan took the mineral water, turned his head and took a sip, wiped the water droplets from the corner of his mouth, and said to Yin Zhiyao: "Then you voluntarily ran errands for me?"
"You called me in front of so many people, but if I refused, wouldn't it be very disrespectful?"
Cheng Wan raised his eyebrows and smiled brightly: "You still care about me."
Yin Zhiyao objected repeatedly: "If I see a thirsty stray dog on the road, I will buy it water!"
"Little devil, can you speak?"
Cheng Wan stopped teasing her, straightened out her camouflage clothes and smoothed her collar: "Okay, after the military training is over, brother will invite you and your friends to drink milk tea."
Yin Zhiyao asked in a low voice: "Didn't someone bring you water? Why did you ask me to buy it?"
