Chapter 108: Let’s Play Ball Together
Hard work pays off, searching for her countless times in dreams, Xu Xiangbei finally spotted the Porsche beauty in the crowd.
There were only two girls playing on the badminton court, one with a short ponytail and the other with waterfall-like black hair. Clearly, the long-haired one was the Porsche beauty.
A boy walked past him, looking helplessly at the Porsche beauty’s direction, murmuring, "What a pity, Teacher Chu already has a partner, I have no chance."
Xu Xiangbei couldn’t help but look at the boy with disdain. No chance? Then you make one. Loser mentality limits his outcome.
Xu Xiangbei slowly circled around, with a small stone in his palm. He seized the opportunity, flicked his finger, hitting the shuttlecock the Porsche beauty had just hit.
The shuttlecock seemed to have grown eyes, hitting the girl with the ponytail right on the nose, causing her to clutch her nose in pain, as blood and tears streamed down.
The Porsche beauty was scared, quickly checking her companion’s injury, "Are you okay?"
Xu Xiangbei dashed over, knocking down three big guys in the crowd, arriving at the Porsche beauty’s side.
He took out a tissue he’d prepared earlier, handed it over, and pretended to inspect, smiling gentlemanly, "Don’t worry, her nose is fine, just a little nosebleed, it’s not serious."
The beauty took the tissue, letting her companion hold her nose, gratefully saying, "Thank you."
"No need to thank me, but she should rest for a bit, otherwise the nosebleed might start again with movement."
Hearing Xu Xiangbei’s words, the ponytailed beauty went to rest by the court, while Xu Xiangbei naturally took over the badminton racket and replaced her.
He’d heard from the security captain that the Porsche beauty was a teacher here. He smiled and said, "Let’s play together, what’s your name, teacher?"
The Porsche beauty gratefully smiled, "My name is Chu Xiaoran."
Seeing Chu Xiaoran’s perfect curves in her sports tee, her white slender legs in shorts, and particularly her bright star-like eyes, Xu Xiangbei couldn’t help but be mesmerized.
"Oh, so you’re Teacher Chu. I’m Xu Xiangbei. You play really well, Teacher Chu."
"Thank you for the compliment, you play pretty well too."
The two started playing badminton back and forth, Xu Xiangbei appreciating Chu Xiaoran’s graceful racket swings, his gaze, of course, focused on her chest.
When Ding Keke returned with two bottles of mineral water, she found Xu Xiangbei playing with Teacher Chu, flirting with her while playing.
Ding Keke stomped her little foot in anger, slightly pouted, "Brother Xiangbei is really shameless, thinking about the beauty again."
She ran directly over, handed the mineral water to Xu Xiangbei, her eyes filled with slight anger, "You tricked me into buying mineral water, turns out you’re eyeing the beauty."
Teacher Chu was a bit tired, picked up a towel to wipe off sweat, beads of sweat fell like pearls from her long, fair neck, rolling down her raised white snow**, exuding a unique charm.
Watching Teacher Chu wipe away sweat, Xu Xiangbei almost choked on water, he grabbed the second bottle of mineral water from Ding Keke, flatteringly handed it to Chu Xiaoran.
Chu Xiaoran gladly accepted it, opened the cap, and gulped it down.
Seeing Ding Keke in a pink nurse outfit, Chu Xiaoran curiously smiled, "What’s the new theme among you students, not wearing hanfu, but nurse uniforms now. I really admire you."
Xu Xiangbei quickly corrected, "Teacher Chu, you’ve got it wrong, we’re not students. I’m a school doctor sent by the People’s Hospital to assist the campus, and this is my assistant, Nurse Ding Keke."
Chu Xiaoran was surprised, her mouth agape, as she’s used to students suddenly coming up to her for a game, a beauty teacher’s usual fate, the most popular among students.
She blushed a little, "Sorry, so you’re Doctor Xu and Nurse Ding, I thought you were students, you look so young, really like a student."
Unknowingly, he learned a bit of flattery from Director Wu, using it right away, "Teacher Chu looks even younger, like a college freshman."
Beside him, Ding Keke couldn’t help but glare at Xu Xiangbei, muttering, really shameless, no different from that Director Wu.
After playing for a while, seeing Ding Keke and her own friend watching from the sidelines, Chu Xiaoran smiled, "Why don’t we play doubles, you two as one team, my friend and I as another, we four can play together."
Xu Xiangbei only wanted to play with Teacher Chu, feeling that playing together had an air of mutual affection, not wanting to have a four-player game.
However, Ding Keke clapped her hands and laughed, actively took the racket and stepped on the court, saying to Xu Xiangbei, "Great, let’s have a doubles match, I’m with Doctor Xu."
Xu Xiangbei, helpless, mumbled softly, "Let’s four play then**."
Gently receiving a ball, Xu Xiangbei’s eyes remained on Teacher Chu’s chest, smiling slyly, "How about having dinner together tonight, Teacher Chu?"
Feeling Xu Xiangbei’s intense gaze, Teacher Chu smiled faintly, gently refusing, "Unfortunately, I have something to do tonight."
Xu Xiangbei wasn’t discouraged, proficient in his persistent tactics, "What a pity, do you have a date with a boyfriend? No worries, I don’t mind."
Teacher Chu smiled, "No, I’m in charge of logistics, and someone from the health bureau is coming tonight, I have to have dinner with them, just at the Champion Scholar Tower next to the school."
Champion Scholar Tower, people from the health bureau, Xu Xiangbei felt a stir in his heart.
He remembered Principal Zhou mentioning a dinner with someone from the health bureau tonight; it seemed Teacher Chu might be in the same dinner.
He was delighted, "Haha, isn’t that a coincidence, truly as the saying goes, if destined, we meet from afar; if not, we would be strangers close by, looks like we are well-fated."
Seeing Xu Xiangbei smiling so blatantly, Teacher Chu frowned slightly, not liking his smile, suppressing her inner dislike, she returned the ball he’d sent over, "Doctor Xu, what do you mean by that?"
Xu Xiangbei suppressed his excitement, "We’re also going to the Champion Scholar Tower tonight. Are you joining Principal Zhou? We are Principal Zhou’s guests."
At that moment, when Xu Xiangbei was being smug, Ding Keke ran beside him to catch the ball, intentionally or unintentionally stomping hard on his foot.
Xu Xiangbei bent down in pain, "Ouch, can’t you play well, why step on my foot?"
Ding Keke’s face showed a satisfied smile after revenge, "I play well, you forgot to catch the ball just now, I helped catch it for you. You’re always distracted chatting while playing, can’t you focus a bit, Doctor Xu?"
