How could you describe the world beneath a girl's school uniform? [Please keep reading!]

The moment their eyes met, Bai Qingxia immediately turned her head away. Holding her Chinese textbook against her chest with both arms, she began moving her lips, pretending to recite the text silently, though one earlobe had turned red.

Sure enough, she was sitting in that same spot as always.

Lu Yuanqiu thought to himself that, as far as he remembered, Bai Qingxia always sat there with a textbook during the free activity portion of PE class.

I'm so damn cool on the court, and you won't even come watch your "dad"?

Lu Yuanqiu looked away and noticed that Hu Caiwei and her two friends were still gazing at him with soft, adoring eyes.

"Lu Yuanqiu, that dunk just now was really cool."

Hu Caiwei spoke again, but her tone gave the impression that she rarely complimented anyone, making even an occasional compliment something exceptional.

"Oh," Lu Yuanqiu replied flatly.

Hearing Hu Caiwei's praise, Wang Haoran glared at Lu Yuanqiu indignantly, as though one more look might make him explode.

Frowning and tossing his center-parted hair, he said, "Nobody can beat me at basketball! Lu Yuanqiu, you up for a one-on-one?"

Before Lu Yuanqiu could respond, Zhong Jincheng said expressionlessly, "Class rep, you're giving him a chance to show off. The real blow would've been to act like nothing happened when he dunked."

Lu Yuanqiu raised his middle finger. "You're the fucking ruthless one!"

Zheng Yifeng's eyes were half closed, as though he had yet to wake up. "Hurry up and play. One basket, that's all. Class is almost over, so hurry... haaah-"

He yawned.

Wang Haoran said, "I go first!"

Tossing his center-parted hair, he walked beyond the three-point line while Lu Yuanqiu took his position inside it. As he checked the ball, Lu Yuanqiu glanced behind him. His expression suddenly changed, and he tossed the ball over.

Wang Haoran caught it and excitedly drove in for a layup, but Lu Yuanqiu didn't try to stop him. Instead, he rushed toward the steps.

A group of students had gathered there.

Lu Yuanqiu squeezed through the crowd and found Bai Qingxia sitting on the ground, clutching her right ankle with a pained expression.

Wang Ping, the PE teacher, hung his whistle back around his neck and asked, "What happened?"

A girl nearby said hesitantly, "Just now... I think I saw a girl push Bai Qingxia from behind... then Bai Qingxia rolled down the steps."

"What did she look like? What class was she in?" Lu Yuanqiu asked coldly.

Wang Ping glanced at him. Why did this kid sound like he was about to go take revenge?

The girl lowered her head and said quietly, "I didn't get a good look. She ran away."

"Fuck, what the hell is wrong with her? She'd better hope I don't catch her!" Lu Yuanqiu swore loudly without holding back, then hurried over and crouched beside Bai Qingxia. "Give me a hand! I'll take her to the infirmary!"

I went through all that trouble to save this girl, and some suicidal idiot still dares to hurt her. What a goddamn piece of shit.

Several girls immediately came forward to help Bai Qingxia up. Hopping on one foot, she stared at Lu Yuanqiu's broad, uniform-clad back and hesitated.

When she didn't move, Lu Yuanqiu looked back impatiently. "What are you waiting for? Get on!"

Bai Qingxia bit her lip, spread her arms, and gently leaned her upper body against his back.

At that moment, the anger on Lu Yuanqiu's face suddenly vanished.

It was as though Nan Gong Wenya had slapped a raging beast across the face, leaving even its eyes clear and innocent.

How could he describe the world beneath that school uniform?

As the world's eastern and western hemispheres pressed against his back together, Lu Yuanqiu attained enlightenment.

Seeing him frozen in a crouch, Wang Ping frowned. "What's wrong? Can't carry her? I'll do it if you can't!"

Hearing this, Bai Qingxia wrapped her arms around Lu Yuanqiu's neck. Both her earlobes were crimson, and she looked utterly mortified.

With clear, innocent eyes, Lu Yuanqiu hurriedly replied, "No, no, no... my foot went numb for a second. It's fine now."

He quickly stood up and gave the PE teacher an awkward laugh.

Wang Ping gave him a puzzled look.

Once he was standing, Lu Yuanqiu supported Bai Qingxia's legs with both hands. When she started sliding down, he bounced her a little higher.

At that moment, the world pressed against his back once again.

Ahh~

Lu Yuanqiu couldn't describe the sensation.

If he absolutely had to, he could only say that he now had a much deeper understanding of the adolescent term "soft girl."

The softness found among the rich and famous might be silicone implants, but this softness was absolutely the real deal.

Whoever gets to marry her someday will be so damn lucky. You could hold her all day and never get tired of it.

Carrying Bai Qingxia over to the steps, Lu Yuanqiu bent forward slightly so she could pick up her backpack. Then he took another two steps forward so she could grab his too.

"Just hang my backpack around my neck."

"It's heavy. It'll hurt your neck."

Bai Qingxia's voice sounded right beside his ear. Seeing her holding a backpack in each hand, Lu Yuanqiu worried that her arms would get tired and quickened his pace toward the School Infirmary.

What Lu Yuanqiu couldn't see was the smile that had appeared on the girl's face, warm as spring sunshine.

"Did you see who pushed you?"

"...No."

"Then do you suspect anyone?"

"...No."

Lu Yuanqiu turned his head in surprise, catching her calm face out of the corner of his eye. Exasperated, he said, "You're worried I'll teach them a lesson, aren't you?"

Bai Qingxia said, "Huh?"

Lu Yuanqiu: "I give up on you."

Once they reached the infirmary, Lu Yuanqiu made a circuit with Bai Qingxia on his back, but the doctor was nowhere to be found.

"Where is everyone?!"

Lu Yuanqiu made another circuit and still found no one, so he could only set Bai Qingxia down on a bed covered with a white disposable sheet.

The girl sat on the edge of the bed, the tips of her toes just touching the floor.

Lu Yuanqiu looked around once more, but still saw no one.

"Forget it. I'll do it myself!"

After that decisive declaration, he pulled over a small stool and sat opposite Bai Qingxia. She suddenly pressed her legs together and asked warily, "What are you doing?"

Lu Yuanqiu said, "Checking whether you just twisted your ankle, dislocated it, or broke something."

Both Bai Qingxia's earlobes turned red, but her voice remained cool as she asked, "Do you know how?"

"Obviously. Back home in the countryside, I used to set bones for the village's old sows all the time."

Bai Qingxia asked in confusion, "Why would old sows..."

Suddenly, she realized something and, flushed with embarrassment and anger,

raised her fist and punched Lu Yuanqiu's shoulder.

He laughed and reached out to take hold of her right foot.

Her canvas shoe was very clean, but there were many cracks along the edge of the sole. The cracks had even yellowed, suggesting she had bought it a long time ago.

Lu Yuanqiu removed her shoe, revealing a clean white sock. Bai Qingxia bit her lip shyly and kept her legs tightly pressed together.

But his next move left her so embarrassed and furious that she almost raised her foot to kick him to death!

Without the slightest warning, Lu Yuanqiu brought her beautifully arched, white-socked foot up to his nose and sniffed it. Before Bai Qingxia could react, he asked in puzzlement, "It's been a whole day. How come your foot doesn't stink?"

"You... you're sick!"

Even someone as cool and quiet as Bai Qingxia couldn't help lashing out at him now.

Lu Yuanqiu pursed his lips and grabbed the right foot Bai Qingxia had pulled away. When she struggled, he gave her calf a sharp, domineering slap. "Stay still!"

Bai Qingxia submitted in humiliation, but her eyes glared at him reproachfully.

Lu Yuanqiu peeled off her white sock, stopping only once he had exposed a stretch of creamy-white calf and her small, pink-tinged heel.

Then he reached out and squeezed her slightly swollen, snowy-white ankle, making Bai Qingxia immediately let out a muffled cry.
