Chapter 22
Xie Xinglin silently stared at her for a while before he slowly got up and abruptly closed the locker door.
Currently, the youths in the locker room were talking and laughing as they changed their clothes. If the locker door was opened slightly wider, Su Qiuge would’ve seen a scenery resembling white flowers in a garden due to the number of undressed youths.
No one noticed Xie Xinglin’s unusual behavior.
After a moment, the door of the locker opened a small crack from within.
Xie Xinglin looked at her from above and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Su Qiuge raised her index finger to her lips and whispered, “Shh——”
But just as she was about to continue speaking, she heard Han Ming’s voice.
“Brother Xing, what are you doing? Why haven’t you changed your clothes yet?”
Xie Xinglin stared at her for a moment before he closed the locker door again. This time, Su Qiuge didn’t dare to push open the door.
When Han Ming walked over, he saw Xie Xinglin leaning on his locker. He was a little confused, “Brother Xing, why are you leaning like that instead of changing your clothes?”
Xie Xinglin calmly said, “I couldn’t find my goggles, you can go out first.”
Although Han Ming was a little confused, he still believed him. He stepped forward to open Xie Xinglin’s locker, “How is that possible? I remember you putting your swimming trunks and goggles in the same place. I’ll help you look for it.”
Xie Xinglin directly grabbed the wrist of the hand Han Ming had reached out with. He leaned closer and said solemnly in a threatening tone, “Don’t touch my stuff.”
Han Ming hissed in pain.
“Can’t you f*cking be more gentle, you’re going to break my hand.” He held his wrist and rubbed it for a while before he felt that something was off. In the past, Xie Xinglin never cared when he touched his locker.
Han Ming said half-jokingly, “What’s wrong? It’s not like you’re hiding a beauty in your locker, there’s no need to be so secretive.”
The youths that were originally talking and laughing turned their eyes toward them as they noticed their movements.
Xie Xinglin whispered at him without changing his expression, “Do you know what the consequences will be if you keep talking? Hm?”
Han Ming caught a glimpse of his expression and suddenly remembered a joke he made during a previous swimming class.
As a result, he was directly kicked into the swimming pool by Xie Xinglin when no one was paying attention.
Han Ming choked, he will never forget how Xie Xinglin looked down at him from ashore and said, “Since there’s water in your brain, you might as well go into the pool to drain it out. Isn’t that nice.”
Han Ming knew that this person was serious. He immediately stopped and sensibly said, “Okay okay, I’ll go first. You be careful not to be late.”
Seriously, don’t know how I provoked him for him to suddenly become so hostile.
When the sound in the locker room slowly quieted down and returned to its former silence, Su Qiuge let out a breath in relief before she slowly opened the locker door and crawled out.
It was not until she stood up that she noticed someone leaning against the locker. He looked down at her, with a deep expression in his eyes as he casually asked, “Tablemate, care to explain?”
“……”
Su Qiuge explained slowly, “I wasn’t feeling well, so I was going to return to the classroom, but I accidentally went to the wrong locker room and ended up running into everyone else, so I could only hide in a locker.
Xie Xinglin quietly looked at her for a long time before he lazily said, “And it just so happens to be my locker?”
Su Qiuge: “……”
Yes, it just so happened to be so. Even she didn’t expect it to happen this way.
Wait, it can’t be that he thought she was up to something?
That perhaps she was stubbornly trying to get revenge against him….
When she thought that the original host’s tragic ending might’ve been caused by her constant attempt to find trouble with the male lead, Su Qiuge fell silent for a moment before she said to him, “Tablemate, you really are a good person.”
