Chapter 449
449 A chance encounter at the gym
I met him downstairs. He said that it’s very chaotic here at night. He insisted on sending me here for my cousin’s sake, but he refused to do so.
She explained it clearly in one sentence, and Jiang che didn’t ask further.
he knew that she could handle such a small matter. he wasn’t worried, but he felt that the gu man had been appearing around them a little too often recently, so he just asked.
“yes.”
“let’s go. i’ll accompany you to sit there for two minutes.”
he held her hand and led her to the resting area.
“You just finished running. It’s not suitable for you to sit, is it?” Shi Yan looked at him.
Jiang che laughed at her words. miss Shi, I do have some common sense. he held her by the shoulder and made her sit down on the sofa. ” have a seat. i’ll stand beside you. ”
“What did you have for dinner?”
Shi Yan simply listed out a few dishes.
“You went with your cousin?”
“yes.”
” he said he’s going to visit the su family this weekend. he asked if i wanted to come along. ”
“you agree?”
shi yan nodded.
you’re usually very hardworking in your studies. It’s good to go out and relax on the weekends. Do you want me to accompany you? ”
shi yan sat on the sofa while he stood. she had to look up to see him.
“do you want to join us?” she asked with a smile.
“Miss Shi, I’m asking you. Why are you asking me the same question?”
“That’s true. Let’s go together,” Shi Yan said with curved eyebrows and eyes.
even jiang che was dazzled by her smile. He stared at her for a few seconds before sitting down beside her. At the same time, he put his arm around her waist and lowered his head to get closer to Yingying.
“Jiang Qianqian.”
“i kind of want to kiss you.”
shi yan had never refused him.
even if there were people everywhere on the street, she had never rejected him when he wanted to get close to her, not to mention that they were in the gym now. everyone was busy with their own things, and few people looked at them.
She gently closed her eyes and welcomed his kiss.
jiang che didn’t kiss her for long. he let go of her after about two minutes.
He only let go of her lips and did not let go of her arms. because he had worked out in the gym for a while, his body was covered in sweat. however, shi yan didn’t think that he smelled bad at all when he hugged and kissed her.
The familiar fresh breath mixed with the smell of sweat made her more at ease.
“Sit here and wait for me. I’m just over there. You can see me if you raise your head.”
“alright,” he said.
jiang che wasn’t far away. shi yan could indeed see him when she raised her eyes. jiang che would also glance in shi yan’s direction from time to time.
shi yan didn’t have the habit of playing with her phone. she sat there and didn’t take out her phone to play, nor did she take out a book from her bag to read. she just sat there with her back against the sofa and smiled at jiang che.
She was holding the half-filled glass of water that Jiang che had drunk.
the gym wasn’t noisy, but it wasn’t too quiet either. shi yan usually didn’t like this kind of environment, but at this moment, she felt that it was just right.
she thought that she wouldn’t get bored even if she just sat there all day.
because the person she saw was someone she cared about.
However, this comfortable atmosphere didn’t last long, and she was soon disturbed.
“Student Shi.”
shi yan looked in the direction of the voice.
The five boys could see a word in them: he was brimming with youth.
the person who spoke was gu tan, who was walking in front. shi yan did not know two of the boys, but they looked familiar. she had seen them at the hot spring resort last time. shi yan knew the other two boys.
Wei chuge and Mingwei.
Wei chuge subtly nodded at Shi Yan as a greeting.
shi yan didn’t know how he had ended up with these people.
“Junior Shi Yan.” mingwei did not seem to expect to meet shi yan here. he was stunned for a moment before he reacted and greeted her.
“Hello,” Shi Yan nodded.
Gu Tan pushed up his glasses, looked at Mingwei and then at Shi Yan.”Senior Ming and student Shi know each other?”
” i don’t really know yingluo. i’ve met her a few times in the school library. i saw that junior shi likes to read, so i asked her what books she could read to kill time without wasting too much time. ” mingwei replied.
he had originally wanted to say that he knew her. after all, she was the first girl he had fallen for. however, he suddenly saw jiang che not far away and recognized him as shi yan’s boyfriend. that was why he changed his words.
“Junior Gu and junior Shi seem to be very close?”
“They’re all straight-a students from the Faculty of Arts, it’s normal for them to be familiar with each other.” The boy who spoke looked very cheerful. Shi Yan remembered that he was the one who had celebrated his birthday at the hot spring resort last time.
she didn’t know what his name was.
“i’m from the same academy as student shi and we’ve met a few times before,” gu tan added.
“student shi, why are you here?” he looked at shi yan.
“i’m here to accompany my boyfriend.” shi yan replied with a smile.
He was very polite.
The others followed her line of sight and saw Jiang che.
student Shi and your boyfriend are so close. I often see you two together. gu tan said.
shi yan smiled and said nothing.
In other people’s eyes, it was a silent agreement.
In fact, she had tacitly agreed.
“Student Shi, you’re sitting here alone. Do you mind if we sit here too? we’re all from the basketball club. we heard that there’s a good gym here, so we came to take a look. it’s close to the school anyway, so it’s convenient for us to come here to work out.”
we’re looking for a gym staff to ask about the fees. As far as the eye can see, there are people in the rest areas. We’re only slightly closer to student Shi.
What Gu Tan meant was that they did not know anyone else in the rest area and did not want to disturb them. She was the only one here and they happened to know her and wanted to sit here to discuss business.
this was the public area of the gym. shi yan had no reason to refuse, nor was there a need to refuse.
“please do as you wish.” She took her bag and sat on the single sofa, making it easier for them to sit together.
“thank you, student shi.”
The others also thanked him and sat down.
at this moment, a staff member in charge of receiving guests also came over and sat down.
mingwei was talking to him, and it was not difficult to see that mingwei was the one in charge.
“Senior Mingwei is a third-year student and the president of our basketball club. the one next to me is also a junior, the vice president of our basketball club, wei chuge. the other two are my roommates. they have different majors, but they’re both freshmen. they’re liu qi and dou chao. i think you’ve seen them at the hot spring villa last time.”
after gu tan’s introduction, the others nodded to shi yan in succession.
“This is student Shi Yan, the top student in the History Department of our college.” Gu Tan’s words were mainly directed at Wei chuge.
Only Wei chuge didn’t know who Shi Yan was.
At least, that was what the others thought.
“Hello.” Wei chuge nodded at Shi Yan.
“Hello,” he said. Shi Yan smiled as if this was the first time the two had met.
He turned to Gu Tan and asked,”basketball club?” does student gu know how to play basketball?”
People who could enter the basketball club did not just play basketball. They usually played well to enter the basketball club. A new member who joined the basketball club and got along well with the President and Vice President would not be simple.
“this student shi, you don’t know. don’t think that dou chao and i have better eyesight than gu tan, in terms of ball skills, we are far inferior to him. We all got into the basketball club because of him.” liu qi said with a smile.
Then, he briefly explained how they and Gu Tan had met the basketball President, Mingwei, and a few other basketball club members on the basketball court. They were then invited to join the basketball club by Mingwei.
gu tan pushed up his thick silly-looking glasses and smiled shyly, ” liu qi, you’re exaggerating. i just like to play basketball. ”
