Invade the World

  Chapter 88 Morning Run for Three People

  ...Sure enough, I have something to say to myself.

  Xu Xiangyang straightened his chest and ran while adjusting his breathing rhythmically.

  His gaze inadvertently looked aside.

  Run early operation is a collective campus activity that can be seen everywhere, just as noisy as other student activities.

  Someone sneaked around the track, thinking that it would be a little bit less to run. Someone pretended to tie their shoelaces, and after a rest on the spot, they walked directly across the meadow to catch up with the team of their class along the diagonal.

  Of course, once caught by the teacher, you will have to be approved and deducted disciplinary points.

  In addition, I can see several groups of girls sitting on the lawn, all resting there, chatting and laughing leisurely, basically because of the holidays.

  ……

  The morning exercises stipulated by the Fifteenth High School consist of two laps of 800 meters. Except for weather conditions and the flag-raising ceremony on Mondays, they will be held on time every morning, and the first and second high school students are mandatory to participate.

For high school students who usually don’t have the opportunity to exercise and spend more time in front of their desks, running two laps around the 400-meter track in the morning is enough to make them breathless, especially part of their physique. Weak girls.

  In contrast, people who choose to take time off and sit on the lawn to rest at this time will be particularly unpleasant.

   Before Xu Xiangyang saw this situation, he always felt a little unfair.

Because girls often only need to talk to the teacher to apply for leave. For boys, they need to limp before being released. Other minor illnesses or physical illnesses, as long as there is no hospital opened The case entry will only be rushed to the team by the teacher and said the last sentence "People with weak physique like you need more exercise!"

  That's because Xu Xiangyang at that time didn't understand this aspect of things.

  Now, after living under the same roof with Lin Xingjie for a while, he no longer thinks about it.

  Although it still cannot be denied that a small group of people just like sneaking and rape, but he can finally understand the hardship of women on menstrual holidays.

  ...Moreover, this is not the only change that happened to him.

  Because he and Lin Xingjie have been together for a long time, some things can only be gradually understood and changed.

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help looking at the girl next to him again.

  Every time, every time he sees Lin Xingjie running, he will feel lost.

  Xu Xiangyang’s pupils reflected not a person, but a light and vigorous elf, dreaming of her running from the mountains to the streams, from the river to the forest, across the forest, to the endless expanse of grassland——

  Long black hair, like ink-colored clouds, floated across the sky, and her slender and powerful legs were full of vigor and vigor. On running her, he could feel the surging vitality beating, and the free wind was blowing on her face.

  So, Xu Xiangyang would never imagine such a thing in his entire life if he couldn't watch her like this.

   "What are you stupid?"

  Lin Xingjie didn’t know how many times she turned her head, and every time she could see Xu Xiangyang staring at her face without blinking, she finally couldn’t help it, and patted a good friend on the shoulder.

"……what?"

  Xu Xiangyang seems to have just recovered.

  He lowered his voice to the point that only two people could hear him, but he answered without thinking:

   "I think you look good when you run."

  "……"

  The long-haired girl pursed her lips, her face flushed.

   "...you are so annoying." The girl whispered, "I have known this kind of thing a long time ago."

   "Really?" Xu Xiangyang was a little surprised, "Have you ever paid attention to what you look like when you run?"

"no."

  Lin Xingjie opened her arms as she spoke, breathing deeply into the wind, and narrowed her eyes.

   "But every time I run, it seems that all my troubles will be thrown behind my head. I like this feeling, and people who are immersed in my own preferences will look good in the eyes of others."

"Yes?"

  Yes, Lin Xingjie thought in her heart, just like when I saw you studying at the desk seriously--

  Thinking about it for a while, she patted her cheek and found that it was getting hotter.

   "I seem to be a little overworked, my body is so hot."

  Lin Xingjie put her hand on one side of her cheek and fanned it, sticking out her tongue.

   "Yes, it feels like summer is coming soon, even the morning is so hot."

  Xu Xiangyang answered casually.

  Lin Xingjie took off her coat and hung it on her arm.

   Running with the black long straight girl, he once again felt the sight of people around him.

   is not from the first class of the second year of high school, his classmates may have taken offense;

  Once you get to the group occasion, it will be replaced by people from other classes. Some people whispered to each other as they looked here, as if they were talking about the rumors about themselves and Lin Xingjie.

  This is not Xu Xiangyang's excess self-awareness. Because as long as you pay attention, the feeling of others' eyes falling on you is impossible to fail to notice.

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head and asked:

   "You just said let me talk a few words, what are you going to talk about?"

  "……"

  Lin Xingjie did not speak, looked forward, and ran without squint.

  I don’t know if it was because of the evaporation of sweat, Xu Xiangyang could smell a faint, familiar fragrance from the girl running side by side.

  He suddenly thought of something:

  Although boys and girls have different choices in daily necessities, for the sake of saving living expenses, they both use the same bottle of shampoo...

  Should you not be smelled by other students?

  Xu Xiangyang suddenly felt empty.

  No, no, no. It shouldn't be, who has that kind of idleness, right?

  Moreover, the smell of hair lotion is not something you can smell like you want. At least no one will stick to him so close, and no one in school will dare to come close to Lin Xingjie to smell her hair.

  Unless you are someone who is familiar with both of them, you can smell it; and you have to be careful enough to notice something tricky——

   "What are you doing?"

   Lin Xingjie’s words interrupted Xu Xiangyang’s random thinking.

  After noticing his gaze, she frowned and struck the long hair falling from her shoulders a little unnaturally.

   "Staring at my face just now, now staring at my hair again..."

   Is it messy when running, there is a fork? It's impossible.

  The girl's fingers touched the hair, and the soft touch came from her fingertips, as if she touched silk. It's not a boast, even she feels that her hair feels good, and that it is due to her natural hair quality, Lin Xingjie didn't put much effort into maintaining it.

  If this matter is told, it will probably arouse the envy and hatred of many girls.

"Ok……"

  Xu Xiangyang thought for a while, and felt that it was a bit embarrassing to tell the other party about his unfounded worry. He soon thought of a new excuse.

   "Xingjie, speaking of it, you seem to be out of touch with the bad girl now."

Of course, in fact, apart from contradicting the teacher and often skipping classes, Lin Xingjie was far away from the average little sister, and the rest are basically rumors; as for other students in the school to treat her away, that is another matter. It's one thing.

  Furthermore, girls always dress very plainly, with no makeup, no perm or dyed hair, no cosmetic contact lenses, and no long nails.

  Generally speaking, Lin Xingjie wears school uniforms of the season, mainly because she has no other clothes to change at home.

   After these two corrections, plus the academic performance that he has made up with his own help, if he performs better in the monthly exam in a few days, Lin Xingjie can completely get rid of this title.

  Xu Xiangyang is very confident about this. Lin Xingjie's mind was not bad at first, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get into 15th high school. It's just that in high school, due to family problems, she didn't want to study at all.

  She has made progress in learning, not only because Xu Xiangyang has been watching by the side, so she feels a little bit, but even Zhu Qingyue has expressed surprise.

  The first grade and the second grade have obvious results. After she shows her skills in the big exam, people's evaluation of her will gradually change.

   "Really? Well, that's right...it's pretty good."

   Lin Xingjie’s attitude is a bit perfunctory, it seems that she doesn’t care about this.

  "—Except for one point."

  Xu Xiangyang made a joke.

"Ok?"

  The girl raised her head questioningly.

  Xu Xiangyang pointed to the long hair swaying behind her.

   "Hair, hair, your hair is too long, it is not allowed by school regulations."

  Zhu Qingyue's hairstyle is more standard, or it is braids. Lin Xingjie seems to be the only girl who can walk around the school with black long straight hair in Xu Xiangyang's impression.

"what?"

   Lin Xingjie glared at him.

   "Why, you still want me to cut it out?"

   "I was kidding, I was kidding!"

  Seeing his friend’s expression a bit fierce, Xu Xiangyang quickly raised his hands to express surrender.

  "I actually always think girls’ hair looks better if it’s longer—"

  Just halfway through what he said, he suddenly felt that a familiar figure ran past him all the way.

  Xu Xiangyang took a closer look and found that it was Zhu Qingyue.

  The short-haired girl turned her face, her clear pupils were full of smiles, she waved to the two friends, pointed to their backs, and then followed the team of her class without looking back.

  What does this mean?

  Xu Xiangyang is a little confused.

   "We two surpassed our own team too much."

Lin Xingjie sighed and reminded softly.

  It wasn't until then that Xu Xiangyang noticed that he and Lin Xingjie were running while chatting. They had already left the first class, even unknowingly surpassed four classes, and ran into the fifth class...

  No wonder there will always be people watching them on the road. Counting a series of actions during the chat between the two, it is indeed too conspicuous.

  Unconsciously, the two laps have already been run.

  The sweaty students went back to their classes and left the playground along the door in the middle of the barbed wire.

  At this time, there are still ten minutes before the first class bell rings.

  Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie left the runway, walked to the barbed wire fence and stopped, and they walked to a relatively remote place with no one.

  He stood under a broad magnolia tree, akimbo to the flowerbed, calmed his rapid breathing, and then asked:

   "Xingjie, are you finally able to speak now?"

"Ok?"

  Lin Xingjie stared at the flower pot in front of her.

  "Don’t pretend, I can tell right away. Did you just have something to tell me?"

  "……"

   Lin Xingjie was silent for a while, and scratched her hair a little irritably.

   "It's about Zhu Qingyue."

   "Does she have a problem?" Xu Xiangyang thought for a while, "I think she was in good condition when she ran past us just now?"

   "The problem is here, she looks no different from the past."

   Lin Xingjie mumbled dissatisfiedly.

   "Obviously it was Zhu Qingyue who said a lot of things to us with a serious face that day. I was made nervous by her, and she also had a determined expression...Could Chengdu be joking with us?"

  Speaking of which, Rapunzel glanced at him.

  "Did Zhu Qingyue come to you in private during this period?"

"no."

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head. He knew what Lin Xingjie wanted to say.

   "She never came to see me."

   Lin Xingjie has an expression that cannot be understood.

"If it's because she is too busy during this period, it would be fine. I also understand that she is studying well and is a student leader. The teachers and classmates are all staring at her, and she may not have time to come to us... But she just didn't Isn't it weird to say hello to both of us like a okay person?"

  ——It turned out that Lin Xingjie was the same thing he was concerned about before.

  But after speaking out of her mouth, Xu Xiangyang had new ideas.

"Well, I actually said before that this kind of thing can't be forced." Xu Xiangyang touched his chin, "It's not that you have to stick together all the time when you become a friend. On the contrary, it will easily become a burden. Zhu Qingyue is not like it. We both live together..."

  As they spoke, a few girls who seemed to be good friends came from behind them talking and laughing. Both closed their mouths and watched them cross themselves and walk up the stairs.

   "Look, just like them, just walk and chat together when you are free, and solve your own problems first. It's impossible to be together every moment."

  Xu Xiangyang looked at their backs and said.

   "How to put it, I think the three of us have a better chance of talking together than others. If we can get acquainted with the flow, I wouldn't be surprised."

   Lin Xingjie sighed slightly.

"But it's different now. It was Zhu Qingyue who took the initiative to make the agreement, and I agreed to it very seriously. As a result, if she didn't actually take this matter into her heart... I would just be annoying me meaninglessly. ?"

  No, there is still me.

  Xu Xiangyang thought.

  But he never realized that Lin Xingjie would also care about Zhu Qingyue.

  He suddenly felt a little funny and shook his head.

   "In that case, why don't we both go directly to her and ask."

"Ok?"

  Lin Xingjie raised her head, the jet-black eyes looking at him were shiny, seemingly expectant.

   "Rather than thinking about it, it's more reassuring to hear the answer from her, isn't it?"
