Chapter 20 Tennis Competition
On the tennis court, Lai Qixiao held a racket in his hand and did some warm-up exercises. Opposite him, Sonoko Suzuki, who had changed into a tracksuit, was eager to try it with a racket.
"Come on, Laiqi-san! Don't lose to the garden! Outside the court, Mao Lilan didn't support his best friend, but ran to cheer up Lai Qixiao, and the shameful behavior of turning his elbow outward caused a roll of the garden's eyes.
"Hey, Lan! Shouldn't you be cheering for my best friend? Think about it, when you used to cheer you on at the karate conference? ”
"I'm sorry, Garden." Xiaolan smiled awkwardly, "This game was originally because of your vexatious trouble, right?" ”
As Xiaolan said, this competition is a bet made by Sonoko Suzuki on his own initiative. Since last week, when Yuan Zi accidentally noticed Lai Qixiao's appearance when he was not wearing glasses, this began to try his best to get Lai Qixiao to take off his glasses. In the end, this farce evolved into this tennis competition.
According to the agreement, if Suzuki Yuanzi wins, then Laiqixiao has to show her what she looks like after dressing up seriously, and if Laiqixiao wins, then Suzuki Yuanzi can't continue to make trouble unreasonably.
"Forget it, don't tell you guy who eats inside and out! Let's get started, Laiqi-san. According to the agreement, if you lose, you have to take off your glasses for me again! ”
"At that point, I'll naturally keep my promise." After the warm-up, Lai Qixiao pushed his glasses and waited for the moment when the game started.
"Laiqi-san, you should understand the basic rules, right?" Yuan Zi carried a racket, as a member of the tennis department, she was quite confident in her ball skills, and felt that she could easily get a beginner to win the game.
"I still know the rules, don't underestimate me just because I'm a beginner. Let's get started, I'll have something to do after school. ”
"Looks like you're confident in yourself, huh? Hmph, I'm going to let you see Miss Ben's superb ball skills today! ”
With a whistle, the game officially began. Although before this, Lai Qixiao had basically not been exposed to the sport of tennis, but with the strong body that his predecessor exercised when he was a bad teenager, as a beginner, he could barely fall into the disadvantage for the time being.
But physical fitness can't completely make up for the technical gap after all, if you continue to fight like this, it is estimated that it will not be long before Lai Qixiao will have to take off his glasses in humiliation.
So, in order to make sure that he can win over Suzuki Sonoko, Laiqixiao decides to cheat quietly. He held his breath and secretly opened his third eye. Under the gaze of the third eye, the speed of the garden swing racket and the tennis ball flying down has slowed down dozens of times, and Lai Qixiao can even accurately foresee where the ball will land next, and then before the tennis ball flies over, he will intercept it and counterattack back.
It didn't take long for Suzuki's Sonoko to fall into disadvantage. Although she played tennis well, she still couldn't win against Lai Qixiao, who cheated with her third eye. Twenty minutes after the start of the game, Yuanzi, who knew that he had no hope of winning, simply threw away his racket and admitted defeat.
"Damn. It's a terrible loss! Suzuki Sonoko said angrily, "I said Laisu, are you really a beginner?" ”
"I'm not lying about this, my knowledge of tennis is really only at the beginner level, and it is purely physical fitness to beat you."
Laiqi Xiao's face did not change his face, and Suzuki Sonoko, who was very arrogant, didn't care whether Laiqixiao's words were true or false, and no longer cared about winning or losing.
"Since you won, then you are willing to gamble and lose, and I will not force you to take off your glasses in the future! But one thing I really want to know, you don't look bad, why do you have to dress up like this? ”
"To try to be as unobtrusive as possible, and it avoids a lot of trivialities." Lai Qixiao didn't choose nonsense this time, but answered Suzuki Sonoko's question seriously, "I think, you should all know the rumors about me, right?" ”
"You mean rumors about what you went through before you transferred?" Xiaolan quickly recalled, "I remember that it was rumored that you used to be a bad boy who fought before, and you still have a criminal record?" ”
"But that's just a rumor!" Yuan handed a bottle of water to Lai Qixiao's hand, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like a person who can fight. ”
Lai Qixiao thanked the garden who handed the water, and then continued:
"Unfortunately, the rumors are true. I used to be a delinquent teenager. Before I transferred to another school, I was guilty of intentional injury because I had been overwhelmed in a fight. In the end, I was placed under protection and observation, and after some setbacks, I was sent to Rice Flower Town. ”
"After I got my previous convictions, I started to reflect on what I had done. In the end, I decided to use this time of conservation observation to turn over my ways. After that, I started with my own appearance and changed my original flamboyant dress to an unobtrusive image like now. ”
"I think the way I look now can not only avoid some incidents, but also help me change my original flamboyant nature."
Hearing about Lai Qixiao's past, Xiaolan and Yuanzi were surprised for a while, but the two of them did not fear him because of Lai Qixiao's previous convictions, but came closer.
"Don't worry, Laiqi-san! I'm sure you can overcome your past self! ”
"Xiaolan is right!" Yuan Zi patted Lai Qixiao's shoulder even more aggressively, "However, I think sometimes it's good to change your dress appropriately......"
"Garden, why don't you give up!" Xiaolan pulled Yuanzi's hand and dragged her away from Laiqixiao, "Laiqi-chan is his freedom to dress up however he wants, so don't harass him!" ”
"It's not too early," Lai Qixiao looked at his watch and waved his hand to the two, "I have something to do next, we'll see you tomorrow!" ”
"See you tomorrow!"
…………
After saying goodbye to Xiaolan and Yuanzi, Laiqixiao got on the tram and came all the way to the Mihua Library. He walked around the outside of the library, ascertaining the distribution of the surrounding rifts before returning to the main entrance.
As soon as he entered, he saw an old man with a monkey face and a little scary at first glance approaching him.
"Sorry, borrowed it." The old man smiled politely at Laiqixiao, who was in the way, but the latter always felt that his smile was as stiff as if it had been squeezed out.
Lai Qixiao made way for the old man, he looked at the back of the old man leaving in a hurry, and touched his chin thoughtfully.
That's what he's aiming for today. Director of the Rice Flower Library, Hideji Tsugawa.
