Chapter 72: I'll Finish Running with You

With a hoarse voice, Lu Zhu coughed a few times, sat down, picked up the mineral water on the steps next to his legs and poured a few sips, his eyes still on the track.

The athletes of Class 8 who returned home with a gorgeous sunset and fearless smiles on their faces waved to them.

There was a thunderous round of applause.

There is a line of sight that falls directly on his face, which cannot be ignored, Lu Zhu noticed it, turned his head, and met Jiang Huaining's gaze.

She choked on a mouthful of water, her lips moist like plump cherries.

Her fingers wiped the water marks at the corners of her mouth, and a trace of doubt appeared in her eyes: "There is something on my face?" ”

Jiang Huaining's eyes flickered, and he looked at the mineral water in her hand meaninglessly, and then looked at the bottle left on the steps. Didn't she notice that she had taken it wrong?

Drink it all, and he didn't bother to remind it.

Fingers stroked the tip of his nose, Jiang Huaining said helplessly and funny: "It's okay." ”

Lu Zhu was confused, but he didn't study what his eyes meant, and poured most of the bottle of water in one go, leaving only the small half bottle in his hand.

Jiang Huaining couldn't control his gaze, glanced at the bottle of mineral water again, and coughed lightly.

Lu Zhu's mind was dazed, and he was suddenly attracted by his movements, and glanced at him.

Jiang Huaining still has the smile on the corner of his lips, and on a handsome face, just a little smile is enough to make people's eyes light up

What laugh at what laughs? Is it that funny?

Lu Zhu uncomfortably picked at the plastic film attached to the mineral water bottle, his heart beat suddenly, a little dazed for unknown reasons, and a little secretly excited.

She seems to have become a strange person.

Emotions are always affected by his every move, even a look, one moment so happy that he can't find the north, the next moment he is depressed, and sometimes he will think crankily about his face.

——

The first day of competition is over, and it is not yet the usual school day.

During the Games, school controls are less stringent, and both day and boarding students can enter and leave the school gate freely without having to show their passes to the doorman.

Ye Zhenzhen and Zhang Ying proposed to eat outside the school.

Lu Zhu agreed without hesitation.

The three girls went out through the east side door and settled dinner at a casserole shop near the school. Lu Zhu ordered rice noodles in a casserole, and the two of them ordered potato flour in a casserole.

There was a casserole on the iron plate, and it was brought to the front by the boss, and the boiling soup was still bubbling, and the fresh fragrance rushed into the tip of the nose before entering the mouth.

Lu Zhu was already hungry, smelled the taste, and couldn't wait to taste it, but accidentally choked on chili oil and coughed violently.

Ye Zhenzhen hurriedly pulled a napkin for her: "You eat slowly." ”

"It's spicy." Lu Zhu stuck out his tongue, and his lips and face were red after one bite.

"You want a spicy one?"

"No, I ordered medium spicy." Lu Zhusi snorted twice, and looked crying, "I didn't expect the medium spicy to be so spicy, it's too top, and the snot is flowing out." ”

"Hahaha." Ye Zhenzhen simply pushed the tissue box to her, "Drink some water." ”

Lu Zhu blew her nose and picked up the mineral water in her hand, it was still the bottle in the afternoon, and she kept it in her hand before she finished drinking it.

When she unscrewed the cap, she froze, staring at the edge of the cap motionless.

The two people on the other side didn't notice her abnormality, buried their heads and sucked potato flour, but fortunately they were wise and ordered something that wasn't spicy.

Lu Zhu lost her mind for a long time, and repeatedly replayed the afternoon scene in her mind, she and Jiang Huaining sat next to each other, two bottles of mineral water were placed between the two, she shouted to Gu Cheng to cheer, sat down and took a bottle casually, and didn't look at it carefully......

Did she take it wrong?

Lu Zhu turned the cap around, and it was almost certain that it was not the bottle she had drunk in the first place.

When she was bored, she used her nails to pinch a circle of marks around the bottle cap, and the bottle in front of her was clean and clean, without any traces she pinched.

With a bang in her brain, a stream of hot blood rushed to the top of her head, making her already spicy red face even redder.

Zhang Ying raised her chopsticks and shook them in front of Lu Zhu in a daze: "Wake up, are you stupid?" If we can't eat it, let's stop eating it and buy something else. ”

Lu Zhu said in a trance: "It's okay, I can eat." ”

——

In the afternoon of the second day, it was basically a long-distance running event.

Lu Zhu still has 1,500 meters to run, and the sad thing is that she just happened to have a period, and yesterday she finished eating a bowl of spicy rice noodles, and she could only take one ibuprofen sustained-release capsule before running.

Fortunately, this time it was postponed for two days, and today is the first day of the year, and the amount of blood is not so much, so you can grit your teeth and persevere.

When the whistle sounded, the players on several tracks next to him immediately rushed out, and Lu Zhu reacted half a beat slower, falling behind at the beginning.

As she ran, there was a uniform cheering sound behind her.

"Lu Zhu, come on!"

"Lu Zhu, you are the best!"

"Lu Zhu Lu Zhu, Class 8 beauty! Dominate the universe! ”

“……”

The students of several classes next to him looked over one after another, leaning forward and leaning back with laughter.

This cheering slogan that anyone thinks of is too talented.

Lu Zhu himself almost laughed when he heard this, supported his waist with one hand, and ran forward with all his strength. A slender figure suddenly appeared in the afterglow, and she looked sideways as she ran, only to see Gu Cheng wearing a white short sweatshirt, running with her along the edge where the lawn meets the runway.

In addition to the sound of the wind, there was a slight wheezing sound in his ears.

The bangs in front of Lu Zhu's forehead were blown up, she wiped a handful of sweat, and shouted at him with all her energy: "You are crazy, you have to run three thousand meters later!" ”

Gu Cheng smiled indifferently: "It's a little meaning." ”

Lu Zhu was already lacking in energy, and it was too difficult to speak during the running, so she slowed down for a long time before shouting the second sentence: "You go back!" ”

"Stop talking, I'll finish the run with you." Gu Cheng said uncommittedly.

Lu Zhu couldn't get rid of him, and he didn't want to bother talking anymore, so he had to let him go.

In the stands, Jiang Huaining stood on the highest step, his eyes followed the two figures, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and the cup in his hand was held tightly by him.

——

After running around the playground for almost four laps, Lu Zhu felt like something was churning in his abdomen, and he only felt dizzy and swollen, so he fell directly on the lawn next to him after running.

Spread out in a large font, panting heavily, closing his eyes and letting the sun shine on his face, sweat all over his body like raindrops.

On weekdays, running 800 meters in physical education class is the limit, and she is really fainting in 1,500 meters, and she doesn't know how many places she has run. In the latter paragraph, she didn't care about looking at others, she just cared about running with her head bored, thinking that the end was just around the corner and she must not give up.

Everyone looked at Jiang Xiaocao, who had always been calm, holding a thermos cup in his hand, and walked quickly towards the finish line. He was followed by Ye Zhenzhen, a logistics officer, holding mineral water and a sun umbrella in his arms.

Gu Cheng squatted beside Lu Zhu, gently pushed her arm, and persuaded in a gentle tone: "Don't lie down after strenuous exercise, if you are uncomfortable for a while, stand up and move." ”

Lu Zhu waved his hand exhaustedly: "Now is it...... Thunder and rain...... I don't want to move either. ”

The sun overhead was covered, Lu Zhu squinted, an umbrella was in the air, and Ye Zhenzhen stretched out a hand towards her: "I'll pull you up." Gu Cheng is right, you can't lie down. ”

The two worked together to pull up Lu Zhu, who was soft into noodles.

Ye Zhenzhen shouted: "Lu Zhu, I really underestimated you, you ran second place, and I was excited in the final sprint!" ”

"Huh? I'm second place? Lu Zhu staggered and staggered, staring at his eyes, looking incredulous, and leaned softly on Ye Zhenzhen in the next second, and said angrily, "Then I'm quite amazing." ”

Ye Zhenzhen sneered and handed her a bottle of mineral water: "Drink it slowly, don't choke." ”

Lu Zhu stretched out his hand to pick it up, but was blocked by Jiang Huaining's outstretched arm: "Drink this." Be careful with scalding. ”

He shoved the thermos into her palm, and waited for her to hold it before he let go. The moment he turned around, he was caught off guard and met Gu Cheng's gaze.

The corners of Jiang Huaining's lips moved slightly, as if he was smiling at him, didn't stay long, and left quickly.

Lu Zhu held the cup, and suddenly thought of the wrong bottle of water yesterday. She glanced at Jiang Huaining's back, and didn't know if he found out later.
