CHAPTER 23
Encounter Han QiluLater, all the girls are running with An Chuxia under the summer sun. There are no words to describe the spectacular scene.
“Xinwei jiejie (older sister), how did they do that? You see them… .” Mo Xinwei is definitely unhappy. She rubs her temple to ward off the beginnings of a headache. She didn"t antic.i.p.ate this development. Mo Xinwei looks at the team running next to An Chuxia. She wishes she can shoot them cold arrows.
“Let them run… ten laps, four thousand meters… I want to see how long they can keep her company!” Mo Xinwei crosses her arms and clenches her teeth. She knows if she tells them not to run with her, it will cause further dissatisfaction. All she can do is watch them run.
If the group runs with her, Mo Xinwei will only be seen as half a bad person.
“They are running the fourth lap, right?” Ying Taoqiu asks, smiling. “Take the umbrella, Missy.”
Marble family businesses mostly rely on the support of Mo Xinwei"s family. Although the two of them seem to be friends, in reality, there is an invisible relationship between master and servant. It just so happens Taoqiu has always been loyal, and has been her friend in this lifetime.
Taoqiu takes the umbrella and pa.s.ses it on to Mo Xinwei. Another group of girls watching the show says it is hot. They charm Ying Taoqiu.
“Well, okay, I"ll get a few.”
“Thank you, Ying Taoqiu meimei!” the girls immediately smile.
Ying Taoqiu sighs helplessly. She is starting to feel like An Chuxia, the servant! Shrugging, she walks towards the school building.
The sun is tirelessly hanging in the sky. The bell rings. At noon, the hottest time of the day, even the insects are afraid to come outside. Ying Taoqiu runs to the cla.s.sroom when the whole building is almost empty.
Around this time, the other students eat.
If she had known earlier, she would"ve gotten the umbrellas. The least she can do is eat lunch! She doesn"t have to run this d.a.m.ned errand and work!
Finding a dozen umbrellas, she dreads walking out in the corridor.
Growing more and more irritable, she can"t help but yell, “Are their hands and feet broken that they can"t get their own umbrellas?”
“Ying Taoqiu!” She stops on her tracks when someone calls her. Her abrupt stop causes the pile of umbrellas to tumble down the steps.
She looks back as she picks up the umbrellas. Xiao Mingluo and Ling Hanyu look at her strangely. However, what"s terrible is that Han Qilu is also present. She sees the black cloud over him. She knows he"s not to be messed with.
A million thoughts flash through her mind before she asks, “Have you had lunch yet?”
“Ying Taoqiu, why does it look like you"ve seen ghosts? Do we look terrible?” Xiao Mingluo teases her.
“No, no, no!!!” Ying Taoqiu waves frantically. “Why are you making fun of me? You know you guys are handsome, romantic, suave… .”
