Chapter 19 First Kiss 5

  After school in the afternoon, Xia Qianying still came to the gym, unexpectedly Ling Shuiyue had already arrived - strange, she was packing up her things as soon as class ended, it seems his legs are longer than mine.

  "Are you going back to your aunt's place today?" Ling Shuiyue didn't respond to Xia Yining's words, but instead turned the tables on her.

  "I'm going home! The maid has arrived, and from now on I can live in my own home."

  Xia Qian Ning hesitated again. Basketball! Her weakness, her Achilles' heel: "Let's play for a while......" As soon as the words came out, Xia Qian Ning wanted to hit herself, really shameless! Was that basketball so great?

  Ling Shui's mouth corners rose slightly, it seems that Chou Baigui really likes basketball.

  Before long, the small gym was bustling with activity.

  "Hey! I told you not to blink your eyes, how did you come again?" Ling Shuiyue exclaimed in a low voice.

  "Am I? You're the one who lost the ball and now you're blaming others. Don't always look at me like that, sometimes I'm great too."

  Still dare to say that you are "great", really don't know what it means to lose face, playing so badly and still want to play, truly have 'courage'. Ling Shuiyue caught the ball thrown by Xia Qianying: "Watch closely, watch how I attack? Don't always just watch and not learn or do anything, when can you make progress?"

  "Got it!" Xia Xianying replied very solemnly. Looking at his stern expression, he was quite serious when teaching others.

  "I'm doing slow motion, I have to pay attention to my footsteps and eyes. Playing ball is not just about challenging your ball skills, physical strength, but more often it's about challenging your momentum, your wisdom. Don't let people see what you're thinking when you take the ball, you need to use tactics... Let's start..." Ling Shuiyue said while demonstrating.

  Before the words fell, Ling Shuiyue's man had already flown up, and the ball steadily fell into the basket.

  "And you're talking about others, this is also a sneak attack!" Clearly in the midst of speaking, suddenly turned into an offense.

  "You can say that, but I've already slowed down as much as I can. Can't you see?"

  Xia Qian Ning received the ball and repeated Ling Shui Yao's action.

  "No, the pace must be steady, take a bigger step to the left... Okay... shoot!" Ling Shuiyue picked up the ball that rolled to his feet: "How can you be so clumsy? No one is defending and you still can't get it in..."

  "Hey! Stop yelling stupidly, I'm trying my best. Hurry up and give me the ball, this time I'll do it right."

  "You're not even good at playing ball, and you're afraid of being scolded." Ling Shuiyue tossed the ball over. She really liked basketball, and despite all the bickering back and forth, she had never said anything about quitting, which was rare among the boys.

  This time he didn't speak, just sat on the floor watching Xia Yining run back and forth, working hard to practice the movements he had just taught.

  Ryner made an effort to tear his gaze away from Fiona.

  After dozens of moves, Xia Qing sat beside Ling Shuiyue, panting: "It's okay... I'm about to die from exhaustion..." She saw that Ling Shuiyue was facing away from her and didn't respond. She leaned in closer to him, curious, and found that he seemed to be avoiding her: "Hey, why is your face so red?"

  "Really?" Xia Qian Ning continued to turn around and stood in front of Ling Shui Yue.

  "Of course. What exercise doesn't make you flush and sweat?"

  After listening to Ling Shuiyue's words, Xia Qinger seemed to be thinking: "That's right... You haven't answered my question from earlier yet. How was it? Was my practice okay?"

  "Can't you encourage me a bit? You've been scolding me for almost an hour, it's really frustrating. I'm working so hard and you're being too stingy with your praise! Would it kill you to say something encouraging?" Xia Xianjing was getting frustrated, she had been practicing so diligently, but instead of receiving any acknowledgement, she was constantly being criticized, it was too harsh. Why couldn't she hear a single compliment?

  Xia Xian looked at Ling Shuiyue with suspicion, was it really from his mouth that those words came out.

  Damn it! Normally doesn't even glance at himself, but now stares at his face without letting go, Ling Shuiyue loudly repeats what he said earlier: "I mean, you're doing great, better than some boys!"

  "Really? Really?" Xia Xian Ning grabbed Ling Shui Yao's arm and shook it vigorously.

  "It's true! My arm is almost broken."

  Xia Qian Ning gave Ling Shui Yao a big hug: "Thank you so much."

  Pei Yichen put on his jacket, picked up the guitar and stood in front of Xia Qinger's photo. I will try my best to sing every song for you, Qinger! I don't ask for your forgiveness, but hope you can hate me a little less. You must live a happy life. Can I still find strength to walk out of darkness?

  Plucking the strings of the zither, the singing voice is like heavenly music.

  Night, gentle as water.

  Heart, overflowing with countless thoughts of you.

  The wind passes through the body transparently and floats away.

  Fly with your soul.

  Flying over flowers all over the ground

  Counting the fine grains of moonlight

  Take me to the crystal clear and endless window of yours.

  The small grass is shallow and hasn't passed over your pure stockings.

  The night wind gently lifts her skirt hem, and a strand of hair lightly covers her beautiful eyes.

  You are so beautiful

  Unforgivable me.

  Night, cool as water.

  Heart, wounds piled up layer by layer.

  The wind tears through the body in search of light.

  Fly with your soul.

  Soaring across boundless darkness

  Soar across the chasm of ten thousand zhang

  Take me to the creek where wisdom and sincerity meet.

  Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

  Wash away the filth and let me return to purity.

  You are so beautiful

  Unforgivable me.

  I don't deserve your forgiveness

  But please accept my silent blessings

  For you - praying for blessings.

  I don't dare ask for your forgiveness

  But accept my silent love

  Missing you - countless longing. Faintly intoxicated by the flowing light.
