poplar eyes

Chapter 38

At [-] o'clock on Saturday morning, Chen Haoran fulfilled his promise not to drink alcohol and started running around the playground.

Li Jing was in charge of checking the numbers, and the rest supervised.

From time to time, Sun Zhibin would blow a provocative whistle at Chen Haoran, and then make fun of him, saying that he was so cowardly that he didn't even dare to drink a few bottles of beer, and he didn't look like a man at all.

"Sun Zhibin, stop shouting."

"Why don't you let me yell? I just don't like him. If you are so cowardly, you dare to snatch Tang Xiaoya from you, and you dare to cut your tires. I will get angry when I see him."

Yuan Shaohua replied thoughtfully, "I don't know why, but I always think Chen Haoran knows how to drink."

"Why don't you drink if you know how to drink? Counseling is cowardly."

"I don't know, I guessed too."

On the runway, Tang Xiaoya cheered Chen Haoran up for a while, and handed him water for a while, without any intention of making fun of him.Every word of encouragement was deeply imprinted on Chen Haoran's heart. Even though he was tired and out of breath, he kept gritting his teeth and persisted, not wanting to disappoint Tang Xiaoya.

"Li Jing, do you think Chen Haoran can finish 20 laps?"

"I don't know, I think it's quite hanging."

"I think so, what should I do?"

"Hey, you know how to worry about others. It's not easy, hahaha."

"Hey, although he usually has a playful smile and is a bit annoying, but I don't want him to be ridiculed."

Listening to Tang Xiaoya's words, Li Jing couldn't help thinking of the scene of punching and drinking last night.

She felt that Yuan Shaohua was a very down-to-earth person with a manly bearing, but unfortunately he was too reserved.Chen Haoran is indeed the smartest one, although he is usually a little reckless in his actions, but fortunately he knows how to measure at critical moments and is able to bend and stretch.As for Sun Zhibin, he has no brains and only enthusiasm.

Half an hour passed, and several students who got up early to exercise gradually stopped, and began to stop and watch, talking a lot.

"Hey, what is this for?"

"I heard that he would rather admit defeat and run 20 laps than drink beer."

"How much wine? A case?"

"No, it seems like two or three bottles."

"How much do I take, that's all? It's better to drink, why suffer this foreign crime."

"Isn't it? It's tiring to look at."

In fact, the length of 20 laps is about eight kilometers, and it can be completed in about an hour under normal circumstances.It's just a 400-meter playground, running around and around, and it's easy to cause visual fatigue. Not everyone can stick to it, and it's very abrasive.

Chen Haoran was short of breath, sweat was slipping, and he walked with difficulty. Even though he had already drank three bottles of water, his throat was still as dry as if it was about to catch fire.

"Li Jing, do you think Chen Haoran will be fine? Look at him running harder and harder."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. At most, I will wake up tomorrow morning with a sore body and trembling when I go down the stairs, hahaha."

"Hey, look at you, you're still smiling."

"Xiaoya, if you have time, ask Chen Haoran, why did he and Yuan Shaohua fight last night, and who won in the end?"

"I don't ask, what's there to ask."

"Are you embarrassed to ask?"

"It's... it's not."

Li Jing saw Tang Xiaoya lowered her head, her cheeks were reddish, her hands were unnaturally rubbing Chen Haoran's sweater, she quickly pinched her nose, and laughed.

"Why are you laughing so loudly?"

"Because I'm happy, our yellow-haired girl grew up overnight, hahaha."

"You are the yellow-haired girl."

"Okay, I am, you are not."

Time passed by every minute and every second. When it was the last three laps, Tang Xiaoya saw that Chen Haoran was really dying. She couldn't hold on any longer. She quickly took off her coat and joined in.

The heart-shaped chain swings back and forth on her chest, sparkling and very dazzling.

Chen Haoran turned his head and glanced at Tang Xiaoya, probably because he was too excited, he lost his position and almost knocked himself down.

Booing and whistles came immediately.

Tang Xiaoya ignored the ridicule of others, and continued to walk side by side with Chen Haoran, constantly giving encouragement and comfort, as if there were only the two of them on the big playground, very selfless.

This situation is really enviable, and Yuan Shaohua's heart feels cold when he sees it, because Tang Xiaoya's attitude towards herself and Chen Haoran is so different, so polarized.It has been more than an hour since the morning. Not only did Tang Xiaoya not take the initiative to speak to Yuan Shaohua, but she also avoided him intentionally or unintentionally. She even politely declined the mineral water and snacks he bought.

Which is more important and which is lighter, we have seen the outcome.

Yuan Shaohua let out a long sigh, patted Sun Zhibin on the shoulder, and left the playground silently.

"Okay, okay, don't run, 20 laps is enough."

Li Jing gave an order, and the running circle was over.

Chen Haoran collapsed on the runway, panting heavily, letting the warm sun shine directly on his face and the cool wind blowing over his face, he smiled brightly.

Although he was very tired, his whole body was steaming with heat, and he didn't even have the strength to get up, but his heart was sweet and extremely happy.

"Chen Haoran, so you don't know how to drink?"

"Yes, of course, just because you are here, I don't want to drink."

"why?"

"I'm afraid you'll laugh at me if I'm drunk."

"Why are you so stupid? How could I laugh at you? Really, don't do this again next time. Look at running so many laps, why bother?"

"Oh, well, got it, hahaha."

Tang Xiaoya sat next to Chen Haoran, asking questions now and then.Li Jing felt that the two of them were just a pair of fools, one didn't know how to ask silly questions, and the other pretended to be foolish and nonsense, yet they were able to chat with interest, it was amazing.

Department of Computer Science, male dormitory.

Yuan Shaohua stared blankly at the mirror, the bruise at the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious, and it was painful.He guessed that Chen Haoran probably couldn't feel better, after all, he was running with injuries, and he ran so many laps.

"Yuan Shaohua, you said that Li Jing's shooting skills are fine, but how can she punch so well? It can be described as fierce."

"Well, it's quite unusual."

"If it's white, all of you together are no match for me. It's the beer that has fooled me, and I still have a headache."

"I'm fine, it's nothing serious, 3 bottles are just right, if you have more, you should be drunk."

Just after Yuan Shaohua finished speaking, he had a sudden epiphany, and slapped himself on the forehead fiercely, full of regret, because he finally figured out why Chen Haoran would rather run 20 laps than drink.

"What's the matter, why are you so surprised?"

"Last night, I was too busy arguing with Chen Haoran to win or lose. We wanted to overwhelm him in everything. In the end, we both drank, and only he didn't drink a drop. You said that if he was also drunk, the two girls would be in trouble on the way back to school." What should I do if I encounter bad people again and again?"

After listening to Yuan Shaohua's analysis, Sun Zhibin also woke up like a dream, covered in cold sweat.

"I said why did Li Jing ignore me today? Could it be that she was angry and thought I drank too much last night and ignored her?"

"Probably."

"But her move is too ruthless, right? It's not true if you drink it, or it's not true if you don't drink it."

"Well, it's really ruthless."

Li Jing is a child who grew up in a single-parent family. It was because her father was addicted to alcohol and ignored the family that she had to live with her mother at a young age. Therefore, for her, being drunk meant life. product issues.

Except for Tang Xiaoya, no one in the dormitory knew her secret, that's why the two of them were like sisters, they talked about everything.
