I really just want to be a scholar

Xiong Kaizong and Wei Wuxiang are old acquaintances of Qin Ke, and they often play basketball together.

Last year when they were freshmen, they could only play in the Basketball Interest Association because of their qualifications. But since the first semester of freshman, because of their outstanding performance, they gradually had the opportunity to participate in the training and competition of the school basketball team. This year, they were promoted to sophomores. Both became regular members of the varsity basketball team and were often featured in the starting lineup.

Qin Ke stood up and greeted him: "Old Bear, Old Wei, don't you guys have a game tomorrow? Why come to me when you have time?"

Although Qin Ke was invited to join the school basketball team in his freshman year, he only participated in training and seldom participated in school team competitions, because the college basketball league is held every year, and the basketball team of Qingmu University is also considered to be the strongest team in the country One, can aspire to the championship from time to time, so from the grassroots competition, divisional competition, national competition (national top 32 competition), quarterfinals, semifinals and finals, it can be said that there are constant competitions, often during class time How could Qin Ke have so much time to participate in the competition.

Moreover, Qin Ke knows his own strength and prestige. Once participating in an official competition, he will easily overwhelm the captain's limelight and affect the captain's authority. On the contrary, it will have a negative impact on the school basketball team, so he generally will not participate in official competitions.

He has joined the school basketball team for more than a year, and he only participated in two games as a forward during the summer vacation in the first two months, because the captain Wang Jian was injured and lacked an important forward.

Xiong Kaizong sighed, and said with a bitter face: "Brother Ke, don't mention it. You also know that Team Wang has officially withdrawn from the school team a few days ago because of his injuries. At present, Qiao Xiangdong is temporarily serving as the captain. But today Captain Qiao received a call from his home. There was an accident in his family. He had to rush back. And tomorrow is the final of the CUBA Second League League. It is related to whether he can qualify for the divisional competition. Team Joe is not here. Hey... So Coach Wu came Let us ask you, can you step down as the captain temporarily, at least get through tomorrow's grassroots finals and win the right to qualify."

Wei Wuxiang who was next to him also persuaded: "Brother Ke, Team Wang and Team Qiao are not here now. We are all convinced that you are the captain. Besides, Lao Xiong and I have the most junior qualifications. If someone else is the captain, maybe tomorrow You can't even make it to the starting lineup. You also know our skills. After learning from you for so long, you can't be a star behind the other players..."

As soon as Qin Ke heard it, he understood that Wang Jian and Qiao Xiangdong were the most experienced members of the school team. The rest of the team members were dissatisfied with each other, and they easily became a mess. That's why Coach Wu thought of Qin Ke.

After all, Qin Ke's prestige and skills are there. If he serves as the temporary captain, the players below will basically have no objections.

As for the fact that Coach Wu didn't come to invite him personally, he found Xiong Kaizong and Wei Wuxiang, who had the best relationship with Qin Ke, as lobbyists. Far better than him as a coach.

Qin Ke looked at the schedule. Tomorrow happened to be Saturday. He originally planned to have a meeting with Ning Qingyun, and he would stop by the Lime Plant Breeding Laboratory to instruct the desert sweet potato project. But seeing the pitiful appearances of Wei Wuxiang and Xiong Kaizong, Finally, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll join in the fun tomorrow."

Xiong Kaizong and Wei Wuxiang were overjoyed, and hurriedly said to Ning Qingyun who was next to him: "Sister-in-law, Brother Ke will lend us a loan, and I will return it after tomorrow." The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, led Qin Ke to the outside of the classroom: "Brother Ke, you come to our evening training first, everyone needs to be proficient in your command."

Qin Ke was helpless. He originally wanted to finish the last elective class in the afternoon with Ning Qingyun, but at this moment he had no choice but to turn around and cast a sorry look at Ning Qingyun.

Ning Qingjun smiled lightly, expressing that it was okay, but a thought came to her mind.When Qin Ke was far away, she got up and said to Gu Yanfei and the three roommates next to her, "Yanfei, Jianan, Xiaohui, do you want to go shopping together at night?"

Ning Qingyun rarely offered to go shopping, which surprised Gu Yanfei and other girls, but tonight is Friday night, and the girls are still very happy to go shopping, so they all responded positively.

……

Qin Ke played basketball for a full hour and a half. He was familiar with the cooperation with the school team members before, and he was also used to dominating the court, so he quickly became familiar with the new role of the interim captain.

Qin Ke returned to the sidelines to rest, and the audience and alternate players around gave him warm applause for his superb skills, but without the pretty figure with one ponytail who always smiled and handed over towels, Qin Ke always felt that A little bit less meaning.

He took out a towel from his bag and wiped off his sweat, and took the drink handed by the sideline substitutes and drank it all in one gulp. Qin Ke felt more unaccustomed to it.

If Ning Qingyun was here, he would definitely prepare warm water for him, because Ning Qingyun always thought that drinking cold drinks after exercising would be bad for his stomach.

"Then girl, I don't know how the shopping is going?" Qin Ke mumbled to himself.

Ning Qingyun sent a message before, explaining that she went shopping with her roommate.Qin Ke is very supportive of her outings. The most effective way for girls to enhance friendship is to go shopping and gossip together.

But... Sure enough, without her by my side, I still won't get used to it.

Qin Ke took out his phone and looked at it. He saw that the last time Ning Qingyun sent a message was half an hour ago, saying that she and her roommates took a taxi to a certain shopping mall and started shopping. It is estimated that she will come back around nine o'clock in the evening and let Qin Ke Have dinner without waiting for her.

Qin Ke simply invited the coach and all the team members of the school team to have a sumptuous dinner outside, which can be regarded as enhancing the relationship and improving the tacit understanding.

It was already [-]:[-] in the evening when the dinner party ended, and everyone went back to school together, made an appointment for the time and place to take the bus to go to the game tomorrow, and then went back to the dormitory.

On the way back to his dormitory, Qin Ke found that the temperature had dropped again, and it started to rain in autumn.

One autumn rain and one cold, the temperature in Beijing in early November has dropped to single digits, and the rainy night is even colder.

Qin Ke looked at the weather app on his phone. It was only about 3 degrees Celsius at this time. The night wind with moisture brought a biting chill, and he wore it straight into his collar, which made Qin Ke, who has always been strong, feel a little bit cold. no.

Speaking of which, did Xiaobaicai bring an umbrella when she went shopping, and did she wear enough clothes?Have you tied your scarf?

She has always been afraid of the cold, and her body is relatively delicate, so don't freeze.

The more Qin Ke thought about it, the more worried he became. Originally, he ran back to his dormitory downstairs in the rain, and instead of going in, he called Ning Qingyun directly.

It took a while to get through the phone.

"Qin Xiaoke, are you looking for me? We are still in the mall, and we may come back later."

Hearing Ning Qingyun's familiar voice, the feeling of emptiness and lack in Qin Ke's heart was miraculously filled with warmth.

"It's raining outside, do you have an umbrella?"

"Is it raining? We didn't pay attention in the mall. We didn't bring umbrellas, but don't worry, we'll take a taxi back later."

"Did you wear a scarf?"

"Scarf? No, what's the matter?"

"It's cooled down outside, much colder than during the day. Go on shopping, I'll pick you up by car, and wait in the underground garage."

"Don't bother you, we will take a taxi by ourselves..."

"No, I don't worry, it's so cold and raining at night, what should you do if you take a taxi on the side of the road and freeze? It's settled like this, you go shopping slowly, call me after shopping, I will pick you up from the underground parking lot You." Qin Ke couldn't help but make a firm decision.

"I know... overbearing."

Although he made a "dominant" evaluation, Qin Ke couldn't help but smile softly because of the sweet voice of the girl on the other end of the phone.

Sure enough, girls always like such gentle domineering.

And Qin Ke really wanted to see his little cabbage sooner.

Qin Ke checked the navigation on his mobile phone, and found that it took about 10 minutes to drive from the school to the shopping mall where Ning Qingyun was located, especially at night when there was a traffic jam, it might take longer, and he didn't even bother to go back to the dormitory to pick up the bag. The umbrella was gone, and he rushed directly into the rain curtain and ran to the parking lot.

His car was usually parked in the staff parking lot two or 300 meters away from the male dormitory. It was not too rainy at this time, so Qin Ke ran over at full speed, opened the car door and got in, dried his hair with the paper towel on the car, He started the car and drove into the dark night.

He drove his new energy car to the vicinity of the shopping mall, and used the smart parking app to reserve a parking lot. After checking, he found that the parking lot of the shopping mall was already full, and the navigation display was dark red. The car parked in a parking lot a little further away.

He took out a warm jacket for Ning Qingyun from the back seat, wrapped it in a bag, and went to the convenience store next to him to buy some umbrellas after getting out of the car. shopping mall.

After walking for about 5 minutes, we came to the entrance of the mall.

Qin Ke had accompanied Ning Qingyun to watch movies in this shopping mall, so he was familiar with it. It was a relatively large shopping mall in the capital.

The road in front of the shopping mall has been blocked for a long time. They are probably here to pick up people. Qin Ke secretly called it a fluke. If he also drove over, he would have to be blocked at the entrance of the parking lot for more than half an hour.

I sent a message to Ning Qingyun to inform me of the latest situation at the south gate of the mall. Ning Qingyun said that he would come out soon, so Qin Ke didn't go into the mall. He went to the convenience store next door and bought four cups of hot drinks. I found a sheltered corner and waited for Ning Qingyun.

People were coming and going at the entrance of the shopping mall, Qin Ke was looking around in the corner, thinking that he would see Ning Qingyun soon, he was actually a little excited.They will stay together from morning to night tomorrow, but they haven't seen each other for half a day, and Qin Ke feels like he hasn't seen each other for a long time.

Looking at the rain all over the sky, Qin Ke's eyes unconsciously recalled the past.

The eve of the Mathematical Olympiad provincial competition in the sophomore year of high school was also the same autumn rainy night. He dragged Ning Qingyun to run in the rainy night.The girl was wearing his large school uniform, and her long single ponytail was swaying in the wind. The night wind was as freezing as a knife, but her little hands were so warm and soft.

Qin Ke didn't know what kind of mood Ning Qingyun was at that time, but for Qin Ke, the heartbeat of first love was so sweet that he would never forget it.

The raindrops hit the umbrella and made a rattling sound. He pulled Ning Qingyun to speed up his pace, and then it seemed that he ran to today, three years later.

Ning Qingyun has changed from the cold and cold school committee member that he is not familiar with, to the most important girl who fills every corner of his life...

Just as Qin Ke was thinking, he saw the unparalleled figure of a girl with a single ponytail at a glance.

She was carrying a bag in her hand, and there were three roommates and countless passers-by by her side, but Qin Ke only saw her in his eyes.

Seeing the girl with a single ponytail approaching, Qin Ke had countless thoughts in his heart, but he didn't know how to express it, so he walked over quickly, shook off the coat in his hand, and put it on Ning Qingyun.

"Put it on quickly, it's cooling down, don't freeze."

There were envious cries from three girls next to her. Ning Qingyun's face was flushed, but her eyes were soft and sweet.

"Brother Ke, can you stop being so considerate, we're going to be sore. People are more angry than people. Don't expect my wood to be so gentle and considerate in his life." Gu Yanfei gritted her teeth.

"That's right, if you raise our standards like this, how can we find a boyfriend in the future?" Ren Jianan said with some jealousy.

Qin Ke smiled, and gave them the hot drink in his hand: "Okay, everyone has a share, a bottle of hot coffee for each person, just to warm your hands, thank you for going shopping with my Qingyun."

"Wow, long live Brother Ke, let's stop talking sour words." Ximen Hui was the first to take the hot drink.

The last cup was stuffed into Ning Qingyun's little hand. Qin Ke took the bag she was carrying and said to the girls with a smile, "Why don't you drink it in the car first? It's too cold here. The car stops 200 meters ahead At the corner, here are the umbrellas, you each have one, and my Qingyun and I share a big umbrella."

Taking advantage of the rain, Qin Ke took the four girls back to the car and sent them back to school together.

The girls were chattering on the road, Qin Ke didn't participate in their topic, but turned his head from time to time to look at Ning Qingyun who was sitting in the co-pilot.

When they came to the girls' dormitory, Gu Yanfei and the other three got out of the car first, and Ning Qingyun blushed and said, "You go back first, Qin Ke and I will go to the car together and then come back."

"It's really lingering, you guys." The three girls giggled and waved goodbye as they stopped being light bulbs.

Ximen Hui said with a smile when he left: "Qin Ke, today Qingyun's leg is about to break in order to choose a gift for you, you can cherish her well."

"Have you chosen a gift for me?" Qin Ke asked unexpectedly.

Ning Qingjun nodded with a blushing face, and pointed to the back seat: "I bought you a new pair of basketball shoes. Your original shoes are a bit worn out. I'm afraid it will affect your performance in tomorrow's game."

In fact, new shoes will not be replaced in general games, and it may affect his performance because he is not used to the new shoes. Ning Qingyun doesn't understand, Qin Ke naturally knows, but he is full of emotions, how can he say it.

He smiled and said: "Thank you, I just worry about the shoes, my Yun'er is careful. Tomorrow I will put on the new boots and kill the Quartet, will you come and cheer for me?"

Ning Qingyun cast a look of "I still need to ask", but her little hand quietly held Qin Ke's hand that was on the gear shift.

"Miss me?" Qin Ke asked intentionally.

"Yeah." Ning Qingyun blushed even more, but nodded obediently.

With a warm heart, Qin Ke shook her soft little hand vigorously before starting the car and drove to the parking lot to park the car.

The two got out of the car together, still sharing a big umbrella.Qin Ke stuffed the girl's hand into his pocket with one hand, and held the umbrella in the other, and sent her back to the girls' dormitory building.

The street lights on both sides of the school road stretched into a little bit of intermittent dim light in the rain curtain. The wet road reflected the lights, making it look a little cold and lonely. There were no other students on the school road, only the footsteps of the two and the sound of rain echo.

It was clearly still a bone-chilling autumn night, but Qin Ke felt much warmer.

"Qin Xiaoke." The girl's soft voice broke the silence amidst the sound of rain.

"Ok?"

"I...I want to walk a little longer." The girl's voice revealed reluctance.

Qin Ke smiled: "Okay, but I'm a little cold." He stretched out his hand, hugged the girl's slender waist tightly, and put her into his arms: "Well, it's warmer this way."

The raindrops hit the umbrella with a pattering sound. Ning Qingyun raised her head, glanced at Qin Ke, and pressed her small face to his chest again.

"Would it be warmer this way?"

Filled with warmth and fragrance, Qin Ke was satisfied: "It's much better."

The two hugged each other like Siamese twins, and walked more slowly, looking very silly on such a rainy night.

But often those vigorous and reckless efforts can't last long, only such ridiculous and silly actions are really clumsy and so cherished, youthful years.
