Song Shijun quickly fawned over her, saying, “My dear lady, I was wrong, okay? You are very light. You are the lightest. You’re just like a feather! Your weight is negligible!”
Han Qiqing was satisfied so she let him go.
Su Lin followed behind them and watched them having fun and getting along with each other.
As they were walking along the hallway, Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly said, “Why don’t we have a competition?”
Song Shijun, who was always fun-loving, became interested at the idea, “What competition?”
Mu Xiaoxiao laughed mischievously and said, “Jie carries me, and you carry Qiqing. We will run to the parking lot. Whoever loses will be treating. How about that?”
Song Shijun grumbled, “This isn’t fair! Shaojie is such a fast runner, and Qiqing is so heavy. Won’t I be bound to lose?”
Mu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Why don’t you carry me then?”
“This is even worse!” He didn’t want to make Great Master Yin jealous and ask for a beating.
Mu Xiaoxiao shot a glance and goaded him, “Song Shijun, we haven’t even started and you already decided that you will lose? You’re really useless! Are you even a man?”
“Okay okay okay. We’ll play.” Song Shijun nodded. He agreed because of his dignity as a man was at stake, and also because it was a game that at worst, he would just have to treat them.
Mu Xiaoxiao tugged at Yin Shaojie. “Carry me quickly!”
Yin Shaojie squatted down before her to let her climb up on his back.
He stood up with ease, carrying her on his back.
Mu Xiaoxiao leaned herself over by his ear and whispered something to him.
Han Qiqing appeared reluctant as she climbed onto Song Shijun’s back. She glared at him and said, “Don’t run too fast. If I fall I will kill you.”
For some reason, Song Shijun didn’t reply to her. Perhaps he pretended not to hear, or that he deliberately refused to reply her.
He turned to look at Su Lin, who was standing behind them, and said, “Su Lin, you be the one to shout when to start.”
Mu Xiaoxiao also smiled at her and said, “We’ll be going ahead. You can run behind us.”
Su Lin smiled awkwardly and said, “Nah, I’ll walk.”
She didn’t want to run. Wouldn’t she look stupid running behind them?
“You call out when to start then.”
The two pairs stood in a line.
Su Lin’s eyes unconsciously rested on Yin Shaojie’s elegant face. He didn’t usually do such childish things, but he didn’t seem to have any objections to it and looked perfectly happy to go along with them.
She snapped out of it, and shouted to start.
The two pairs broke into a run.
Without having to watch, Su Lin knew that Yin Shaojie would definitely win. He was good at whatever he did and never once did he lose. He was strong-minded. He wouldn’t allow himself to lose in everything that he did.
However, what she would never have expected was that Song Shijun had outpaced Yin Shaojie, and at a fast speed. The distance between them gradually became larger.
Su Lin was startled, “How could it be?”
How could Yin Shaojie lose?
What was even surprising to her was that Yin Shaojie, who was always competitive, didn’t seem to care at all. He was even chatting happily with Mu Xiaoxiao as they gradually slowed down to a walk.
Without anyone walking with them, it seemed like they were strolling on a date.
He carried her, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. They look happy talking about something.
The picture of them was beautiful and romantic in every way.
Watching how intimate they were, Su Lin was upset.
…
When the three finally reached the parking lot, Song Shijun and Han Qiqing were waiting there.
