Back to high school, Peking University is beckoning me

Lu Youning and Ruan Fuxi watched the game from the sidelines, applauding and cheering for their wonderful performance from time to time.

After a while, they replaced Lu Youning and Ruan Fuxi. Their skills were also not to be underestimated. The shuttlecock flew back and forth in the air, making people dazzled.

Lu Yixiao was cheering hard on the side.

Gu Siyuan felt itchy and suggested, "How about we play doubles?"

Everyone agreed, and the four of them quickly formed teams: Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao in one group, and Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan in another.

Gu Siyuan suddenly said, "It's boring to compete directly like this. How about we place a bet?"

The two girls looked at each other, and Lu Yixiao said, "It's a bit unfair, two of us girls versus two of you boys."

Ruan Fuxi said, "How about this, I'll add 5 points to your final score. Then we'll see who has the higher score."

Lu Youning thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, then what should we bet on?"

Ruan Fuxi pondered for a moment and said, "How about after next semester starts, the loser buys the winner breakfast for a week?"

Lu Yixiao's eyes lit up when she heard that. She looked at Gu Siyuan and said, "Just wait and buy me breakfast for a week."

Gu Siyuan: "Best of three, come on." He hooked his finger at Lu Yixiao.

The match began with a tense atmosphere. Lu Youning served, Ruan Fuxi received the ball steadily, and then returned it to Lu Yixiao. Lu Yixiao swung her racket vigorously and hit the ball back.

The four of them were running and jumping on the court, enjoying the joy of sports. The gymnasium was filled with their laughter.

The first two games were evenly matched, but the third game became increasingly intense, with the score remaining closely tied. The air was thick with tension at every shot.

In the second half, Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao's stamina was clearly failing, and the girls fell behind by four points.

As the game progressed and the score reached a crucial match point, the stadium was so quiet that you could almost hear everyone's heartbeat.

Lu Youning served the ball, and it traced a beautiful arc in the air. After a few rounds, the badminton hit by Gu Siyuan flew towards him like an arrow from a bow.

Lu Yixiao jumped up to catch the ball, but misjudged it and failed to catch it.

Lu Youning's eyes were fixed on the white ball, and his brain was working rapidly.

She had originally held the racket in her right hand, but the angle of the ball was so tricky that it was about to miss the racket. In a flash, Lu Youning quickly switched the racket to her left hand without hesitation.

With his left hand firmly gripping the racket, he accurately struck the badminton that was about to fall to the ground. The ball was hit high up, drawing a beautiful arc in the air.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Youning and the racket in her hand.

The players on Gu Siyuan's side rushed to save the ball, but it was still just a little bit off and fell into the boundary.

"Hahaha, Ningning, you are so awesome." Lu Yixiao hugged Lu Youning happily.

The two boys, Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan, just looked at them across the net.

Ruan Fuxi's eyes were filled with smiles as he shook his head helplessly.

Gu Siyuan looked incredulous: "Sister Ning, you're so powerful, switch from right hand to left hand?"

After Lu Yixiao's excitement subsided, she said to Gu Siyuan proudly, "Haha, I admit defeat. Next semester, I'll buy you breakfast for a week."

Gu Siyuan smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, I admit defeat."

After the intense competition, Lu Youning was now a little exhausted, and she slowly walked to the bench next to her.

Ruan Fuxi glanced at Lu Youning, then ran to the convenience store and bought a few bottles of mineral water. He unscrewed the cap of one and handed it to Lu Youning, smiling and saying, "Are you tired? Drink some water."

Lu Youning took the mineral water, took a sip, and smiled gratefully: "Thank you, this game was really exciting."

Ruan Fuxi sat down next to Lu Youning and looked at Lu Yixiao and Gu Siyuan who were still chatting and laughing on the court. He said, "Yeah, but everyone had a lot of fun. When do you think we can play again next time?"

Lu Youning raised his head slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's wait for a while, until I recover my strength. This game really exhausted me."

Ruan Fuxi nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, then we'll come back when you're ready. You performed very well today, especially that high shot, it was so beautiful."

Lu Youning smiled a little embarrassedly: "You are not bad either. You were very stable in several key returns."

The two smiled at each other, drank water quietly, and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.

Lu Youning didn't take the bet seriously, but when someone delivered breakfast to the liberal arts class for a week after school started, many classmates were shocked.

A lot of rumors have arisen since then, but that’s a story for later.

The four of them sat and chatted for a while, and then Gu Siyuan pulled Ruan Fuxi to play basketball next door.

Lu Yixiao: "Are all boys so energetic? Huh?"

Lu Youning shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

The two boys helped to carry the rackets and water, while Lu Youning and the other person followed slowly behind.

Finally, Ruan Fuxi and the others were waiting at the entrance of the basketball hall. "You walk so slowly." Gu Siyuan said slowly.

Lu Yixiao rolled her eyes at him and retorted, "Who is like you, a bull with endless energy?"

Lu Youning embarrassedly pulled Lu Yixiao and quickly walked into the museum.

A few people had just found a few empty seats in a row and put their things down. Lu Youning was about to sit down when a basketball flew towards her face.

"It's over, it's over. This is really shameless. I'm going to get hurt." Lu Youning was complaining madly in his heart at this moment.

Lu Youning's mind went blank for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she was being held tightly in Ruan Fuxi's arms.

He protected her head with one hand and hugged her waist with the other. The dull sound of the collision seemed to still echo in her ears, and her heart suddenly tightened.

"Are you okay?" Lu Youning asked anxiously, her voice trembling. She wanted to break free from Ruan Fuxi's embrace and check on him.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Ruan Fuxi's voice was steady and powerful, as if soothing Lu Youning's panicked heart. His strong arms released Lu Youning's slender waist.

At this moment, Gu Siyuan and Lu Yixiao also quickly reacted. "What's going on? Are you okay?" Lu Yixiao looked at them with a worried look on her face.

Ruan Fuxi let go of Lu Youning, helped her stand up, and shook his head slightly: "I'm fine, it was just an accident." He turned around and looked at the flying basketball, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

At this time, a boy ran over and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Gu Siyuan replied: "Brother, don't play so hard. Throwing the ball so far can easily hurt people."

Ruan Fuxi shook his head to indicate that everything was fine.

Lu Youning looked at Ruan Fuxi's back, her heart filled with guilt and emotion. She gently pulled the corner of Ruan Fuxi's clothes and said, "Your back must be hurting. Let's go check it out."

Ruan Fuxi smiled and said, "No need, this little injury is nothing." His eyes fell gently on Lu Youning's face, making Lu Youning's heart beat faster involuntarily.

Gu Siyuan walked over, patted Ruan Fuxi on the shoulder, gave him a thumbs up and said, "Brother, good job, manly! This operation is worth a lot of points~"

Then he looked at Lu Youning and teased, "Lu Youning, you have to thank Ruan Fuxi."

Ruan Fuxi glanced at Gu Siyuan unhappily and said nothing.

Gu Siyuan: "Brother Xi, why are you looking at me like this without saying anything?"

Ruan Fuxi retracted his gaze and said, "Oh, nothing, I just held a funeral for you in my mind."
