Insufficient balance

  The trees by the roadside were flying backwards one by one, and the vast fields and high mountains were constantly changing their visual angles. From time to time, several houses and small villages would appear in the field of vision, and from time to time, the birds flying overhead would bring a few distant cries. In this bright season, such scenery always gives people a feeling of yearning.

  These were the scenes Lin Xiaoyu saw from the window of the bus that was moving forward. The school bus, loaded with players from Feicui Experimental Middle School's basketball team, was heading towards the provincial capital because these players from Feicui Experimental Middle School had to go to the provincial capital for the qualifying match of the National Middle School Basketball League.

  In the carriage, some players were whispering to each other in twos and threes, while others were sleeping with their eyes closed. A few teachers and leaders who had accompanied them sat in the front row of the car, where Coach Bian Guohui was discussing some trivial matters with them; Xiao Haifeng was fiddling with a Rubik's Cube on his seat that no one had ever seen him restore before, but the colors on it were still mixed together in a mess after being turned over for a long time; Zhang Jialin was playing a handheld game console with Han Dali, and from time to time, you could hear Zhang Jialin's soft exclamations of surprise. Su Hao sat next to the team's female manager, Lin Cijie, who was occasionally glancing sideways at Lin Xiaoyu in front of her, her eyes seeming to gaze out the window at the scenery but actually filled with a hint of melancholy.

  Lin Xiaoyu sat in the back row of the bus by the window, with one earplug in his left ear and the other on Yan Nan's small ears, who was leaning against him with her head lightly resting on his shoulder. He sniffed the faint fragrance on Yan Nan's body, listened to the quiet music coming from the MD player, and looked at the fresh suburban scenery outside the window, making Lin Xiaoyu feel a sense of comfort, a very pleasant feeling.

  Although Lin Xiaoyu was almost hopeless to play in this game due to his hand injury, Coach Bian Guohui still let Lin Xiaoyu take the bus with the team members to the provincial capital. It was also Lin Xiaoyu's first time to leave Feicui City where he had lived for 16 years and go to a place hundreds of kilometers away. The curiosity about the outside world filled Lin Xiaoyu's heart with longing and yearning.

  Lin Xiaoyu turned to look at Yan Nan, who was sleeping with her head on his shoulder, and his heart was filled with infinite tenderness as he gazed at her delicate and beautiful face. He thought about all the things she had quietly done for him, which made Lin Xiaoyu feel an unparalleled warmth in his heart.

  Lin Xiaoyu stretched out her left hand and gently smoothed out the few strands of hair that had been blown into disarray by the wind from the car window. Although Lin Xiaoyu's movement was extremely light, Yan Nan, who hadn't fallen asleep yet, still felt it. Yan Nan slowly opened her beautiful big eyes and gave Lin Xiaoyu a loving glance.

  This time, the trip to the provincial capital was originally a basketball team activity, but Yan Nang, who had just become a couple with Lin Xiaoyu, was eager to follow Lin Xiaoyu on this journey. So Yan Nang went with Lin Xiaoyu to find the basketball team's coach, Bian Guohui. Bian Guohui certainly recognized this beautiful girl who almost every day would appear in the stands watching the players train and compete. If it weren't for her help, Bian Guohui would have had to go through more trouble to get Lin Xiaoyu to join the basketball team. So Bian Guohui agreed to Yan Nang's request to follow him to the provincial capital to watch the game, and even personally went to ask Yan Nang's class teacher for leave.

  Yan Nan leaned against Lin Xiaoyu's shoulder, smelling the familiar scent on her body, and listening to the refreshing song "Reality" in her earbuds. She felt that there was no more beautiful time than this. After getting the love she had been longing for, Yan Nan quickly recovered from her weakness due to illness, and these days she had been fully enjoying the happiness brought by love with Lin Xiaoyu by her side. Yan Nan no longer needed to secretly glance at Lin Xiaoyu like before, nor did she need to worry about anything as she intimately leaned against Lin Xiaoyu. The usually cheerful and lively Yan Nan didn't care about the teammates' kind teasing; now she was like a little bee that had fallen into honey, everywhere was filled with sweet happiness for her.

  Yan Nan gazed at Lin Xiaoyu's profile as she looked out the car window, Yan Nan stretched her neck and gently kissed Lin Xiaoyu's face. Yan Nan didn't look at Lin Xiaoyu who turned around after being suddenly kissed, but instead rested her head on his shoulder again and fell asleep with a sweet smile on her lips, revealing a hint of sweetness in her heart...

  After a bus ride of about two hours, the chartered bus arrived at the apartment provided by the organizing committee for the players of Feicui Experimental Middle School basketball team. The game will not start until tomorrow, so Coach Bian Guohui and the teachers decided to give these young players a small break, allowing them to take a good stroll around the provincial capital, the most prosperous economic and political center in the province, in the afternoon.

  After having lunch together, the players who were familiar with the provincial capital took everyone to a place for fun. Yan Nan and Lin Xiaoyu did not follow the crowd to have fun because Yan Nan wanted to go on a date with Lin Xiaoyu in their own little world.

  Yan Nan's grandmother lived in this provincial capital, and Yan Nan grew up in this city when she was a child. They also bought two houses here, so every time there was a long holiday, Yan Nan would stay in the city for a while. Therefore, Yan Nan was very familiar with the place. So Yan Nan took Lin Xiaoyu's arm and took her to see the most characteristic places in this city.

  The wide and spacious highway was filled with all sorts of beautiful cars, the streets were lined with high-end shops and restaurants, and the sidewalks were crowded with fashionable people... Lin Xiaoyu had never seen such a prosperous metropolis before. The towering skyscrapers that stood everywhere made her feel very unfamiliar and amazed. She realized for the first time that the living environment in each city was so different. Lin Xiaoyu was curious whether people who lived in this bustling city would be any different from herself, who grew up in a quiet coastal town.

  Yan Nan pulled Lin Xiaoyu into one store after another, and Lin Xiaoyu finally understood that when girls go shopping, they like to look at goods, even if they don't want to buy them. They would still go into the stores and take a left and right look around, seemingly never getting tired of it.

  Yan Nan walked into a Nike specialty store with Lin Xiaoyu's arm in hers. Feicui City also had a Nike specialty store, but compared to this three-story luxurious store, that one was like a small retail shop. The beautiful decorations and fashionable atmosphere in this store made the sports goods on display look even more noble and eye-catching.

  Yan Nan carefully selected a pure black Nike sportswear set from the latest products on the shelf for Lin Xiaoyu. Yan Nan ignored Lin Xiaoyu's hesitation due to the extra code on the clothes and pushed her into the fitting room. When Lin Xiaoyu came out of the fitting room, Yan Nan couldn't help but be dazzled by Lin Xiaoyu wearing the new clothes.

  Lin Xiaoyu, who was originally tall and slender, had a very good appearance. Now that she had put on this specially designed, fashionable new dress, Lin Xiaoyu looked even more radiant and spirited. Even the female sales clerks in the store couldn't help but secretly admire her. Yan Nan circled around Lin Xiaoyu twice with great satisfaction before letting the sales clerk at the side go settle the bill for the clothes.

  Lin Xiaoyu didn't expect Yan Nan to buy a set of clothes worth nearly a thousand yuan for himself. Lin Xiaoyu was about to open his mouth to stop Yan Nan, but was pushed into the fitting room again by Yan Nan, saying that he had to change back quickly because they still had many places to visit. Lin Xiaoyu had no choice, as Yan Nan had already paid all the money, so Lin Xiaoyu could only go into the fitting room and put on his own clothes.

  A gaze was watching Yan Nan and Lin Xiaoyu trying on clothes in the first floor of this Nike store from the stairs on the second floor, with a faint sense of resentment that tugged at one's heartstrings.

  "Cuijie, what are you doing there? Come over and take a look at this jersey set. Give me some advice!" Su Hao shouted from the stairs, holding up a jersey set.

  "Oh, the jersey is fine, it's fine." Lin Cijie responded casually, she didn't even take a closer look at what color the jersey was. When Lin Cijie turned her head to look downstairs, she found that Yan Nan had already walked out of the Nike store with his arm around Lin Xiaoyu's hand. Lin Cijie could only withdraw her own dim gaze and looked down at the small bag in her hand, which contained something she had just bought...

  Compared to Lin Xiaoyu's time spent buying clothes, girls' shopping time is much longer. Lin Xiaoyu sat on a chair next to the fitting room with several items she had just bought from different stores, waiting for Yan Nan, who had already entered the fitting room several times but still hadn't chosen an outfit. This made Lin Xiaoyu feel a bit uneasy in this women's clothing store. The female customers and saleswomen passing by couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiaoyu intentionally or unintentionally, making her even more uncomfortable. Fortunately, there were also a few men waiting for their girlfriends to try on clothes in the store, which gave Lin Xiaoyu a sense of balance.

  The fitting room in the middle finally opened, and Yan Nan, wearing a gray velvet suit, walked out of the fitting room. Unlike other female customers, Yan Nan didn't stop in front of the large mirror at the door to admire herself. She walked straight up to Lin Xiaoyu, turned around lightly with a smile, and asked if she looked good in this outfit?

  Lin Xiaoyu thought that her girlfriend Yan Nan was a clothes rack, no matter what she wore, it looked great. Lin Xiaoyu saw Yan Nan change into several different outfits earlier, each one seemed to be tailor-made for Yan Nan, not only showing off Yan Nan's tall and slender figure but also her bright and generous temperament.

  After getting a positive response from Lin Xiaoyu, Yan Nang happily went to the fitting mirror and admired herself. The several men on the side couldn't help but steal glances at this perfect female customer in terms of appearance and figure. One young man was so captivated that he forgot about his girlfriend who had just come out of the fitting room, and was immediately scolded by her, leaving him feeling miserable. In his heart, he envied Lin Xiaoyu even more for having such an outstanding and obedient girlfriend sitting next to him.

  "Be careful on the way home, bye." Lin Xiaoyu said goodbye to Yan Nan after opening the taxi door. Lin Xiaoyu and Yan Nan played until more than 8 o'clock and had dinner outside before taking a taxi back to the apartment where the Experimental Middle School basketball team was staying. Because Yan Nan had to return to her residence in the provincial capital that night, Lin Xiaoyu bid farewell to Yan Nan.

  "Alright, I'll be careful, wait a minute......" Yan Nan grabbed the corner of Lin Xiaoyu's clothes as she was about to get out of the car.

  "Is there anything else?" Lin Xiaoyu didn't know what Yan Nan was holding onto her for.

  "Kiss me, Xiaoyu." Yan Nan slowly closed her eyes and lifted her face, waiting for Lin Xiaoyu's kiss.

  Lin Xiaoyu looked at Yan Nan's perfect face, then glanced at the middle-aged taxi driver sitting in the front seat, and found that he was not looking back at the rear compartment. She lowered her head and gently kissed Yan Nan's tender and juicy red lips...

  "Take a good rest, see you tomorrow. Xiao Nan." Lin Xiaoyu closed the car door for Yan Nan and watched as she reluctantly looked at her through the window of the taxi as it slowly drove away. Lin Xiaoyu felt warmth in his heart to have Yan Nan as a girlfriend like that.
