Chapter 26.1: Round 2

Lu Xu Nan stayed in his seat staring at his phone the entire class.

When Fang Ci dragged him to the sports field, he even thought Lu Xu Nan was angry over the fierce words He Bing said in the group chat.
“Aiyo, this scoundrel is so arrogant he’s gonna fly up to the sky.
He’s a flying monkey, right? In a bit, we’ll show him what’s called Buddha’s Mount Five Finger!”

But Lu Xu Nan didn’t hear his chattering.
His attention involuntarily floated behind him.

Ning Yi with Ju Meng, Yan Ziyun, and a few other girls walked behind them.

If he focused a little, he could even hear the content of their conversation.

“Aiya, originally, I wanted to take advantage of the fact that the new student isn’t familiar with the school and volunteer to bring him to the sports field! Who knew that he was actually called away by Teacher Liu… Really messed up the chance for me and Classmate Xu Xing Ji to wander around campus ah!”

Lu Xu Nan fiercely wrinkled his brow.

What kind of friends were around Ning Yiyi? Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.
Their eyes were just as bad!

It was at this time that the accident occurred.

Hearing a brief cry, Lu Xu Nan subconsciously raised his head and happened to see Ning Yiyi, that girl, flusteredly reaching out to catch that person that was falling down.

Idiot!!!

Lu Xu Nan was anxious with anger.
With that underdeveloped balance, even walking on level ground, she would trip and fall.
Even if she really caught the person, she wouldn’t be able to steady herself and would only be taken by the person and fall together!

Fang Ci was focused on talking smack and didn’t discover that the person walking beside himself was walking more and more slowly, slower and slower… When he finished reading the fierce words He Bing newly put in the chat and turned his head, where was his Brother Nan’s figure?

Turning his body, he raised his head and looked back.
Just in time, he saw Lu Xu Nan, with his right hand propped on the handrail, easily leap up in place, flying up a flight of stairs like an arrow…

The same time Ning Yi came in contact with Mu Wanqing’s back, she also realized that as a big dropping force herself, she absolutely wouldn’t be able to stabilize without support.

Thinking that if they shared the same fate and the two people tumbled down together, she might instead be even more severely hurt, Ning Yi changed from catching to pushing and did her best to push Mu Wanqing up.

When she fell backward like an entire body sent flying, Ning Yi felt a little despair as she closed her eyes, thinking: If villains needed to be tested, she would probably fail…

Ning Yi was startled, then remembered she had to lift her hands to protect her head.

But an arm laid across her eyes one step ahead of her, firmly steadying her head.

“Mm–oomph!”

The instant they hit the ground, Ning Yi heard a muffled groan vibrate from the chest underneath her.

The sharp pain she imagined never appeared.
She only became aware at this time that someone had protected her from behind.

A faint lemon scent lingered at the tip of her nose, Ning Yi hadn’t come back to her senses when she heard Lu Xu Nan’s familiar way of speaking–

“Still not getting up? Using your savior as a human cushion, is it so comfortable?”

Ning Yi hurriedly climbed up in a flurry, then reached out a hand to help Lu Xu Nan on the ground.

Lu Xu Nan had no qualms as he borrowed strength from her support to get up, his lips still not neglecting to ridicule, “Are you a pig? So heavy, you crushed me to death…”

“…” Ning Yi sighed deeply.
Pretending she didn’t hear him, she asked, “How are you? Did you get hurt anywhere? Do you feel pain anywhere ah?”

After all, it was the savior that just finished being a human cushion for her.
It sounded so loud when they fell down just now.
Just from the sound of it, you could tell it wasn’t a light fall.
Ning Yi knew in her heart that it wasn’t the time to bicker about the other person’s deficient mouth right now.

Lu Xu Nan looked at the well-behaved girl in front of him bearing a face full of worry.
His heart immediately felt extremely reconciled and snug.

Now you should finally know who the one truly worthy of liking is, right?

Gentle? What’s the use in being gentle? Can gentle save you? Just with that white cut chicken figure? It can’t even surpass a guardrail!

Lu Xu Nan increasingly felt like he was simply heroic.
The hand that originally wanted to rub his shoulder paused, he scoffed, “I’m not some new white cut chicken, how can this little bit of altitude hurt me?”

Ning Yi looked him up and down a little worriedly and asked closely, “Really nothing wrong?”

Lu Xu Nan’s back immediately straightened some, his tone seemingly impatient as he said, “What could be wrong? I say you’re fat and you really believe it.
Just the way you are, I can lift one in each hand.”

Ning Yi: “…”

The one who said I was fat and was going to crush you to death just now, wasn’t it you!?

Lu Xu Nan laughed with a “pfft”.
His hand itching, he didn’t resist and he stroked Ning Yi’s swaying ponytail, saying, “What are you worrying in vain for? Hurry and leave, don’t block me from going to the classroom to get my jersey.”

Ning Yi saw that he really looked like he was fine and released the hand supporting him, about to step aside.

Yan Ziyun ran up in her little leather shoes, forcing Ning Yi aside, her face full of worry as she looked at Lu Xu Nan, asking, “Nan gege, you didn’t get hurt anywhere, right? The sound when you fell was so loud, it scared me to death.”

Lu Xu Nan reached out and supported Ning Yi who was sent stumbling by Yan Ziyun, unhappily glaring at her.

Yan Ziyun pursed her lips and turned to Ning Yi, “Yiyi, what about you? Did you get hurt? Do you need to go to the infirmary for a look?”

It’s always you, it’s always you! Ning Yiyi, the one who invites trouble is always you! The one in Nan gege’s eyes is also always you!!!

The resentment in these thoughts… Lu Xu Nan couldn’t help but take another look at Yan Ziyun.
He only saw that she still had that worried face and was currently using a slightly reproaching tone to admonish Ning Yi, “How can you be that impulsive? Before you do anything, you have to consider whether you have the ability! What if you got hurt, then what would you do?”

Ning Yi was a little embarrassed by these words.

People say that those good in the sciences are more rational.
On the contrary, she could be very clear when facing those complicated calculations, yet when she encountered problems in life, it was very easy for her to not think calmly.
For instance, last time in the alley and for example, this time.
If the situations were analyzed, in none of those cases did she make the most appropriate choice.

But sometimes, a person’s subconscious was faster than the brain’s calculations.

When she acted, she simply didn’t have time to think about other things.

Although Lu Xu Nan didn’t approve of Ning Yi’s dangerous behavior, he couldn’t stand hearing Yan Ziyun’s words filled with disguised malicious intent.

He said indifferently, “Wanting to save someone is always better than standing by and watching with folded arms.”

Yan Ziyan was choked up at once, her face changed several times.

In any case, Ning Yiyi is good no matter what, even if she’s stupid, impetuous, and coy and childish and horrid!

Lu Xu Nan directly frowned upon hearing this.

Indeed, one may know a person for a long time without understanding their true nature.
He only saw that Ning Yiyi was with Yan Ziyun every day and even thought their relationship was great.

Lu Xu Nan looked at Ning Yi, thinking in his heart that this girl was really a fool, getting along for so long and still hadn’t discovered that the “friend” beside her had an ulterior motive.

“Move aside, you’re blocking my way.” He directly ignored Yan Ziyun’s prior concern, coldly speaking.

Yan Ziyun lowered her eyes and moved a step to the side.

Lu Xu Nan coldly passed by her, not sparing her another glance.

Ju Meng came out from the side.
Grabbing onto Ning Yi, she looked her over from top to bottom and anxiously asked, “You really didn’t get hurt, right? My god, you really scared me just now! Does it hurt here? What about here?”

Ning Yi was tickled from her pinching, she laughed as she said, “I’m really fine.
Aiya, don’t pinch, it tickles.”

Ju Meng finally stopped worrying.
She said in a small voice, “Damn, God Lu was too handsome just now! You didn’t see that move when he rushed out and hugged you~ It was just like a scene from an idol drama! Heavens ah, did you feel God Lu’s broad and sturdy chest? Does it give an incredible sense of security!?”

Ning Yi thought in her heart: Still an idol drama? Didn’t you hear him scold me saying I was a pig afterwards ah?
