The daily life of a crazy female supporting character trying to redeem herself.
Chapter 15 Playing Ball
Su Heng's sudden question made Song Zhiji stop in his tracks as he was about to pass him.
Do you bring your own lunch?
That's a difficult question to answer.
Song Zhiji turned slightly to face Su Heng, whose expression was very calm, as if he were asking a casual question.
"Ah."
Song Zhiji ultimately did not tell the truth, but instead chose to acquiesce.
Compared to his discomfort from lying, Su Heng was in much better spirits. Hearing the cold reply, he showed no displeasure and still waved goodbye to him warmly, "Okay, I'm leaving."
Faced with his enthusiasm, Song Zhiji could only force a smile and nod. After Su Heng turned around, he continued walking along the route he had just taken.
Song Zhiji has never lied. He has always adhered to the principle of being an honest and upright gentleman, and he has lived that way since childhood.
But just now he admitted to this lame lie; he wasn't holding one insulated box, but two.
Su Heng wasn't an idiot, so he could naturally see that something was amiss. He didn't confront him directly, which only made Song Zhiji feel even more ashamed.
But if they told the truth, the situation would be even more awkward. The complicated relationship between them and Liang Qing, and the inexplicable... well, somewhat close relationship between him and Liang Qing now, were not easy to explain.
Thinking of this, Song Zhiji couldn't help but tighten his grip on the insulated box.
As soon as he entered the classroom, Liang Qing came up to him, took the box from his hand, and thanked him.
He turned his gaze back to her, and when their eyes met, he fled like a startled bird, passing her and returning to his seat.
His strange behavior left Liang Qing somewhat bewildered, so she soon returned to her seat, which was next to him.
"What's wrong?" she asked him.
He casually pulled out a book, maintaining his usual nonchalant tone, and said, "It's nothing."
Perhaps it was his coldness that made Liang Qing wisely stop talking, and the two returned to a state of not interfering with each other.
Liang Qing also took out a book to read, and she tried calling out to Xiao Qi again, but there was still no response.
This made her start to feel irritated. Xiao Qi hadn't appeared for a long time. Even if it was an upgrade, did it really take this long?
More importantly, trapped in this bizarre world, she felt herself becoming bizarre as well.
During this period, she felt increasingly unable to control her emotions and had to desperately restrain herself to continue the mission.
At this moment, although her hands were constantly looking at the words on the book, her mind was blank, like a wound-up machine, lifeless.
Because the two were preoccupied with their own thoughts, neither of them noticed Su Heng standing at the back door.
……
"Su Heng, why are you so late?"
Chen Cuo and several others, also dressed in basketball uniforms, were standing under a tree not far from the court, chatting casually. When they saw Su Heng walking over, they quickly went over and put their arms around his shoulders.
Seeing that Su Heng did not respond, Chen Cuo looked at him seriously and found that he looked dazed, as if he had encountered something unbelievable.
Chen Cuo was taken aback, then suddenly shook Su Heng. Su Heng was still pondering what he had just seen, but the shaking made him lose all his thoughts.
"What?" he said irritably, tossing the ball to Chen Cuo.
Chen Cuo caught it steadily, pouted, and said, "Why are you asking me what I'm doing? I'm the one who should be asking you what you're doing. You look so distracted."
Distracted?
Su Heng's first reaction upon hearing those four words was to sneer, but he couldn't help but recall the scene he had just witnessed: Liang Qing seeing Song Zhiji and rushing to take the insulated food container from his hand.
At first, he found it a little strange to see the two insulated boxes in Song Zhiji's hands, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He wasn't very interested in Song Zhiji's affairs until the question he asked casually caused Song Zhiji to have a strange reaction, at which point he began to find it odd.
The only person Song Zhiji knew who elicited this reaction was Liang Qing.
So after saying goodbye to Song Zhiji, he inexplicably followed her again. Song Zhiji was clearly distracted and didn't notice him at all.
He had witnessed their interaction, and on the surface, there was nothing unusual about it.
But the insulated boxes actually belonged to Liang Qing, and both of them were.
He knew how Song Zhiji had developed his stomach problems, and Liang Qing had never eaten with Song Zhiji, always letting Song Zhiji eat alone.
But now, she not only brings him food, but also eats with him.
Has their relationship progressed to this point?
This expectation made him feel uncomfortable.
He was also very dissatisfied with Song Zhiji's actions. He not only complained about him, but he himself couldn't explain why.
In the end, he attributed it all to the fact that Song Zhiji had already learned from past mistakes, yet he willingly fell into Liang Qing's trap again. As a fellow "victim," Song Zhiji's actions were unpleasant.
He simply couldn't believe Liang Qing would suddenly change; he called her recent actions a "trap."
Feeling extremely frustrated and desperately needing something else to distract himself, Su Heng finally remembered why he had come here. He snatched the ball from Chen Cuo's hand again and asked, "Who are we playing with today?"
Chen Cuo's hands were now empty. He rolled his eyes at him speechlessly and slowly walked towards the big tree. "What's the rush..."
He was halfway through his sentence when he caught a glimpse of a group of people walking from the same direction as the big tree, so he changed the subject, "Look, they're here."
After speaking, she turned to look at Su Heng and gestured with her chin.
Su Heng looked in the direction he indicated and saw a group of people wearing white basketball uniforms. The most eye-catching one was the boy at the very back, whom he recognized at a glance.
Qin Zhouyu.
It turns out that today's match is against the second-year students.
The senior students who were leading the group stepped forward and greeted Chen Cuo. The two exchanged a few words.
Then Chen Cuo called out to him, to the group of people under the tree, and the person who greeted Chen Cuo also called out to his group.
Both sides walked onto the field, and the match began.
When Su Heng and Qin Zhouyu were playing basketball and were trying to keep each other occupied, Su Heng saw his lips up close. His lips had healed, and the scars that Su Heng had seen in the infirmary had disappeared without a trace.
However, Su Heng remembered it vividly, and a surge of anger rose up. They were all "victims" as well, so why were Song Zhiji, Qin Zhouyu, and Liang Qing still entangled and even had more contact than before?
Liang Qing treated him coldly and ignored him, but she still applied medicine and fed the two of them.
Su Heng's anger was always without reason. He had completely forgotten about the encounter between the two of them during the magazine shoot, because compared to what he saw in the infirmary that day and what he saw in the classroom just now, that compliment was insignificant and not worth mentioning.
The entire match was played with great ferocity, especially against Qin Zhouyu, but Qin Zhouyu was not intimidated at all and did not care about his hostility, dealing with his moves with ease.
In the end, they lost the game to Qin Zhouyu and his team. Su Heng sat under the tree, drinking the water that Chen Cuo handed him, gulping it down.
The purpose of playing a game is to vent one's anger, but now that the game has been lost, the anger has not been released, but instead has intensified.
Just then, Qin Zhouyu's group was heading back, walking along the path past the big tree, when Su Heng suddenly stood up and called out to Qin Zhouyu.
"Senior Qin, is there something I can talk to you about?"
Su Heng looked at Qin Zhouyu with ill intent, and naturally felt the probing gazes of the others around Qin Zhouyu. They must have sensed Su Heng's hostility towards Qin Zhouyu earlier.
