Mu Xiaoxiao could tell that he must have seen that she was awkward running alone and had come to accompany her.
“I’m alright being alone. It’s not as though I haven’t been gawked at before so you don’t have to run with me. Hurry and go play basketball with your friends.”
“I said I’m warming up,” Lu Yichen said simply.
Mu Xiaoxiao couldn’t change his mind and thus decided to keep quiet.
The two ran together like this.
They were the only ones who were on the track. The rest of the students who were resting beside it had their attention captured by them involuntarily.
A handsome boy with a pretty girl — they made a fine pair. The scene before them looked very picturesque.
Someone took out his phone and took a snap of the scene.
Even though Mu Xiaoxiao had quite good stamina, she didn’t usually run and thus was panting after that.
However, perhaps it was because Lu Yichen had run with her that she felt as if her run was done in a short time.
“Xiaoxiao, how are you feeling?” Lu Yichen asked, concerned.
One should walk ahead slowly after a run and not sit down immediately.
Mu Xiaoxiao held her waist and shook her head. “I’m fine.”
However, she looked a little weak.
Seeing that she was licking her lips incessantly, Lu Yichen looked up and called out to his classmates at the nearby basketball court. A bottle of water was swiftly delivered to them.
He unscrewed the bottle and gave it to her.
“Drink some water.”
“Thanks.” Mu Xiaoxiao took the bottle from him. Lifting her head, she gulped down a big mouthful of water.
Lu Yichen laughed as he looked at how fast she was trying to drink the water. “Slow down, no one’s fighting you for the water.”
Mu Xiaoxiao gulped down another mouthful of water. “I’m thirsty. Do you want some?”
She held the bottle to him subconsciously before pausing suddenly, realizing that this might be inappropriate.
Wasn’t it indirect kissing if the two shared a bottle of water?
Actually, she had done things like this in America frequently and thus thought nothing of it since they were all good friends. Most people wouldn’t touch the lip of the container, but just poured the water into their mouths directly without their lips touching it.
However, things were different now.
She had a fiancé now and thus had to behave with more propriety.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t know how to take back the words that she had already said, and thus looked a little awkward.
Lu Yichen only smiled mildly and said, “It’s okay, I’m not thirsty. You should drink it. I have water over there.”
She didn’t know if he had seen her expression.
Mu Xiaoxiao teased deliberately, “I was only asking. Did you really think that I’d let you drink? I’m so thirsty that I don’t think one bottle is enough for me.”
She put the bottle to her lips again and started gulping the water down.
She finished the entire bottle of bottle swiftly.
She belched after she was done.
Lu Yichen looked at her, “Do you want some more water? I’ll go get one for you.”
“No, no.” Mu Xiaoxiao waved hurriedly. Perhaps it was because she had chugged the water down so rapidly, but she felt a little full after drinking.
“Go play basketball. You don’t have to accompany me anymore.”
If he continued to hang out with her the period was going to end before he had a chance to play basketball with his friends.
Lu Yichen nodded. “Okay, I’ll be going now then.”
Mu Xiaoxiao waved, “Bye bye.”
She belched again and looked a little embarrassed.
Lu Yichen was tickled by her again.
After he had gone for a distance, a few girls walked over and surrounded Mu Xiaoxiao. They sighed, “Mu Xiaoxiao, I’m so envious of you. You’re not only dating Young Master Jie, but also on such good terms with Senior Yichen.”
