Love So Sweet

250 Injured

There was a long silence and the men began to exchange glances.

Seeing that Zhang Li Xue had appeared, the group of uncles had a guilty look in their eyes.

“We were having a basketball match,” Qi Zheng decided to speak. Among everyone who was present, he was the most appropriate to speak. “Bai Qi fell and probably sprained his ankle.”

“What?” Zhang Li Xue lowered her gaze to look at Bai Qi’s ankle. However, she could not see anything in the dark.

Seeing the worried look on his girlfriend’s face made him smile. “I’m fine. It’s not that serious.”

Zhang Li Xue shot a fierce look at her boyfriend. He needed her uncles to support him as he walked and he still said that it was not that serious.

“Li Xue, let’s go in first,” Qi Zheng spoke again. “I’ll take a look at his injury first.”

Zhang Li Xue stepped aside. Then, she followed everyone else back into the house.

The moment the men entered the house, the others realized that something did not seem right. Zhang Yu Ying saw her husband help Bai Qi to the chair and asked, “What happened?”

.....

“A little injury,” Wei Jun Hao said. “Yu Ying, go and grab the first aid box first. Let Qi Zheng take a look at the boy’s injury. That’s right. We may need some ice too.”

“Oh.” Zhang Yu Ying turned around to look for the first aid box. At this time, the most important thing was to look at Bai Qi’s injury.

As Qi Zheng looked at Bai Qi’s injury, Yang Ran pulled her husband into the corner and narrowed her eyes. “Did you bully the young man?”

Qi Ming Wei cleared his throat. “Of course, not. Ran Ran, Bai Qi injured himself playing basketball. He landed on the wrong foot after a slam dunk. I did not touch him.”

Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue was waiting at the side with an anxious look in her eyes. “Uncle Qi Zheng, how is it?”

Qi Zheng heaved a sigh. “Fortunately, his injury isn’t that bad.” He shot a look at Bai Qi and continued. “But you still have to rest for a few days. Don’t put pressure on your ankle.”

Hearing that his injury was not that serious, Zhang Li Xue finally heaved a breath in relief.

At the side, Su Ming Yuan and Feng An Yu were observing Zhang Li Xue’s worried face from a distance. The two friends exchanged a look and sighed.

“Li Xue really cares about this boy,” Su Ming Yuan commented.

“Un-huh. It seems that way.” Feng An Yu tapped his chin with his fingers. “In the beginning, I thought that Li Xue might be charmed by his sweet talks. However, this boy does not seem as if he is very good at sweet talking.”

They had asked Bai Qi a few questions and the boy answered their questions with a serious look on his face. He did not complain when they bullied him. He did not even try to flatter them with his words.

Now that they have thought about it, they realized that if Bai Qi was such a person, Qi Zheng would never be interested to recruit Bai Qi as his student.

Knowing that Zhang Li Xue did not fall for him because of his sweet mouth made them feel more at ease. Someone who only knows how to sweet talk people was too dangerous and annoying.

Feng An Yu coughed. “Let’s not try to mess with this boy again. It would be troublesome if Li Xue became upset with us.”

Su Ming Yuan nodded. “Let’s just watch how Yu Han will deal with Bai Qi.”

“Hmm...”

Seeing the look on Feng An Yu’s face made Su Ming Yuan curious. “What do you have in mind?”

“Bai Qi is very good at basketball,” Feng An Yu spoke. “With his skills, do you think he might defeat Yu Han?”

Su Ming Yuan’s eyes lit up.

For years, the group of friends was bullied by Zhang Yu Han to practice basketball. Thinking of how Zhang Yu Han might play against Bai Qi someday made them feel excited. It would be interesting if Bai Qi could win. Suddenly, the two of them were thinking of supporting Bai Qi just for the sake of getting their revenge on Zhang Yu Han.

“It’s possible,” Su Ming Yuan spoke. “It seems that Bai Qi is a strong candidate as Yu Han’s son-in-law.”

...

With Bai Qi’s small injury, the small gathering had to end earlier than planned.

Zhang Li Xue sent Bai Qi back to his apartment and supported the man upstairs. Her brows furrowed as she tried to make sure that he would not fall.

Although Bai Qi had already convinced her that he could walk with the hand railing as his support, the little girl was too insistent to help.

Of course, Bai Qi had no chance to decline his girlfriend’s offer.

Zhang Li Xue was too worried. But having someone to worry about him felt really good. Bai Qi knew just how much Zhang Li Xue cared about him.

Seeing the serious look on his girlfriend’s face made him smile. However, a few seconds later, the smile on his face quickly disappeared.

They were standing too close and his body was plastered against her. Because of their height differences, his eyes unexpectedly saw the scenery under her shirt.

Her skin looked white and supple. The little bunnies under her shirt looked very soft.

Bai Qi’s face turned red and he had to look away before his mind would wander to a place it should not wander. However, his brain could not stop replaying the scene in his head.

“We’re here.” Zhang Li Xue announced. She took a deep breath as they both stood in front of his apartment. “Bai Qi, what about the keys?”

“Oh.” He took the keys from his pocket and unlocked the door.

She helped Bai Qi to sit down and took a step back. Her brow furrowed when she noticed Bai Qi’s reddened face. “Bai Qi, your face is red. Could it be that you have caught a fever?” Zhang Li Xue put her hand on his forehead and finally heaved in relief upon finding that his temperature was normal.

Bai Qi coughed. “I’m fine. It’s probably too hot.” He flashed her a smile before she could worry further. “Really.”

Zhang Li Xue stared at him for a while before she finally let out a long sigh. “And you. Why are you not careful while playing basketball?”

“I’m sorry.” Bai Qi pulled her hand and let her sit beside him. Then, he leaned over to kiss her cheek. “I was thinking of impressing your uncles with my skills. I wasn’t paying attention. I promise that it would not happen again.”
