As Jiang Tong dashed across the red line, the race ended.
Two minutes and eighteen seconds.
She directly broke the historical record for the 800 meters among middle school students in Beijing.
"Xiao Tong, well done,"
"Sister Tong is awesome!"
"Jiang Tong, you’re really incredible!"
"..."
Jiang Tong was surrounded by a crowd, her face flushed red due to the intense exercise she just completed, and a thin layer of sweat was on her forehead.
"Oh, it was okay, actually I didn’t even use my full strength," she bragged, not forgetting to boast a bit.
The people around her immediately burst into laughter at her words.
Bao Nan stood on the opposite side of the track, looking at her, feeling a slight stir in his heart.
Born as a favored son of heaven.
Since childhood, those around him acted submissive or pretended to be weak.
The light that surrounded her was too dazzling.
He had never seen...
From then on, he, who always considered it a hassle to come to school, started attending regularly.
And anything related to Jiang Tong, he would secretly pay attention to.
And gradually, her name was etched into his heart.
Perhaps this is what they call falling in love unknowingly, but deeply.
However, during sophomore year, news of Jiang Tong’s dating spread throughout Hengchuan, even reaching the principal.
Seeing each person standing next to her, he actually felt a bit jealous.
Jealous of how close they could be to her...
Actually, when it came to Jiang Tong, he was easily satisfied.
For example, if he passed by her class after a gym class and occasionally saw Jiang Tong inside working on problems.
He would hide in the opposite corridor, secretly watching her for an entire class period.
Just from watching one class, he could smile foolishly for a whole week.
Then later, once when he and Si Yuan Yang were passing by a bar entrance, they encountered a drunken Jiang Tong.
She even put her arms around him, saying she wanted him to be her boyfriend.
Actually, everyone knew that this was just Jiang Tong’s drunken rambling.
But he took it seriously...
Thinking of his silly self in the past, Bao Nan chuckled quietly, raising a hand to gently caress Jiang Tong’s face.
However, he wasn’t much different now from back then.
Only he loved Jiang Tong even more than before...
By the moonlight, he could clearly see her peaceful sleeping face.
Who knows what sweet dream Jiang Tong was having, gleefully pouting her lips, her side face rubbing against his right shoulder.
Originally the clean white shirt was now stained with foundation and lipstick.
Bao Nan smiled helplessly, extending his left hand to pull up the suit jacket draped over her, afraid that Jiang Tong would catch a cold from the car’s air conditioning.
After reminiscing about the past, now he could only stare at Jiang Tong in a daze.
Yet as he stared, slowly he found himself closing in on her, their lips just a few centimeters apart.
Gazing at her rosy lips, Bao Nan’s Adam’s apple moved, swallowing his saliva, a touch of desire flickering in his deep eyes.
Thus he leaned in a bit more, now he just needed to slightly nod his head to kiss the one he thought about day and night.
But just as Bao Nan was about to kiss her, he hesitated.
When you deeply love someone, you’re always indecisive, afraid of hurting her.
Just like Bao Nan now.
In the end, he sighed, chose to switch the target, and left a gentle kiss on Jiang Tong’s forehead.
The beautiful experience of a first kiss, she should keep it for someone who can spend the rest of their life with her...
Not someone like him now...
After the stolen kiss, Bao Nan smiled, his cold eyes filled with longing for Jiang Tong, and a gentle whisper echoed in the car.
"Tongtong, I love you..."
