The Twelfth Chapter: The Sparkling Stars (Seeking Collection and Recommendation)

  In order to prevent Xia Xian'er's spike kill, Li Xiaobai was much more careful when serving again.

  Left hand threw the ball, right hand shook wrist, and sent a low flat ball over.

  Whoosh!

  She felt a gust of wind rushing towards her, and Xia Xiang'er made a horizontal sweep.

  The badminton was hit and flew away, and fell within Li Xiaobai's boundary again.

  At this time, Xia Xiang'er had a bit of a girl's flavor, and she looked at Li Xiaobai with some pride.

  Is there such a way to fool people?

  The badminton racket fell to the ground, and Li Xiaobai, who was secretly angry, didn't intend to pick it up either.

  "Hey, Li Xiaobai, what are you doing? Hurry up."

  If I'm not mistaken, this should be Xia Xier's first time calling his name since the swap.

  No, it should be the first time his name was called since the class division.

  Of course, shouting his name is not an intimate expression.

  If two people who are close to each other will often call each other "Xiaobai" or "Xinger".

  She shouted her own name just for the next kill shot.

  As expected, girls are just naturally hateful creatures.

  Don't want to play anymore.

  "Never mind, you'd better find someone else to play against." Li Xiaobai shouted from a distance.

  One can walk, but the momentum cannot be weakened.

  Xia Xiner took a sidestep, racket held straight, originally making defensive moves, but upon hearing Li Xiaobai's words, her movements stiffened for a moment.

  "You don't want to give up so soon, do you?" Xia Xiang'er put away her racket, clearly somewhat unhappy.

  Come on, shouldn't he be the one who's unhappy? After all, who keeps making him pick up the ball?

  "What are you talking about? Who wants to be a deserter? You're the one who's being unreasonable first."

  "Am I playing tricks?" Xia Xiner held up her racket and made a hitting motion, apparently having had enough.

  No, what I said earlier was a bit ambiguous, to be accurate, she didn't act spoiled either.

  But to admit that a boy's ball-playing skills are inferior to those of girls is really too embarrassing to say.

  "Excuse my momentary slip of the tongue. But, this way is really not interesting at all. We are currently in a stalemate, not one-sidedly bullying each other." Li Xiaobai felt a bit big-headed, and saying so seemed to imply that he was still the loser.

  Forget it, let her calm down first.

  "It seems you also admit that it's a one-sided oppression, looks like I found the wrong opponent." Xia Xiang'er spoke in a cold tone, but her mouth curved into a slight smile, she should be happy too, after all someone was praising her.

  Why just simply accept praise, don't you know your own shortcomings?

  "I'm not incapable of a slam dunk, it's just that it's easy to hurt my wrist." After making an excuse, Li Xiaobai ignored Xia Xiang'er's disdainful cold smile and continued, "But there's no need to easily decide the outcome either, this is really too boring."

  "In the end, it's all because of your poor skills." Xia Xiang'er bluntly pointed out.

  His cheeks are slightly red, how is that possible? Aren't his cheeks only supposed to turn red when he's sick?

  But now is not the time to be puzzled about these things. The main point is to resolutely counterattack against the other party's views.

  "I admit I'm no match for Lin Dan, but if you were to play against him, you probably wouldn't be able to take a single point either. Comparing it this way, our strengths should be about even."

  Xia Xiner probably didn't expect Li Xiaobai to make such an equivalent exchange, even the usually cold and detached her was slightly aghast, staring at him with a slightly open mouth.

  But Li Xiaobai didn't care about her, "Even if my skills are slightly weaker than yours, but if you hit the ball once, I'll directly smash it back, wouldn't that be dull for you too?"

  "I wouldn't think so, because I won't give you the chance. Even if you block my shot, I still have confidence to get it back." Xia Xiner said coldly.

  "But it was you who invited me, so you also have the responsibility to not make me feel bored. If you always kill the conversation, anyone would be unhappy, right?" Li Xiaobai said indignantly.

  Why was I so stupid at that time and accepted her invitation?

  Under the threat of Li Xiaobai's boycott, Xia Xiang'er finally reluctantly agreed to Li Xiaobai's request.

  When they started again, Xia Xiner didn't kill anymore, and the rhythm of both sides slowed down a lot.

  At this time, Li Xiaobai was secretly pleased, and Xiao Niu had finally fallen into his trap.

  Hit a short ball... then adjust an oblique line... and hit another backcourt ball...

  Taking advantage of the slight physical strength advantage of boys, Li Xiaobai began to control the rhythm on the field. In the blink of an eye, the situation turned sharply, and Xiahui'er, who was still arrogant just now, only had time to be tired from running around, where was the half pride she had just now?

  Bang!

  Li Xiaobai's flexible wrist sent the shuttlecock that Xia Xiang'er had barely managed to return back to the front court. Xia Xiang'er was left with no choice but to watch as the shuttlecock landed within the limits...

  "Li Xiaobai... you're despicable!"

  Several rounds were lost in this way, Xia Xiang'er still had a good face, glaring at Li Xiaobai.

  "The rules of the game were agreed upon by you, and I didn't cheat, even if we're at the same table now, it seems like you don't have the right to wrong me?" Li Xiaobai didn't back down one bit, although he knew that Xia Xiang'er wasn't very physically capable.

  "Hmph, I didn't lose to you, I just lost due to insufficient physical strength."

  Li Xiaobai's eyes widened in surprise, and Xia Xiang'er was too self-loving.

  However, if I must say so, Xia Xiang'er is excellent in all aspects except for her terrible personality and average physical strength.

  Looks beautiful goes without saying, learning is also super good.

  The first monthly exam, Li Xiaobai was already one of the top students in the whole grade with over 30 people, but she easily entered the top ten, and her ranking in the class was only second.

  They all say girls are bad at math and logic, but she's an exception, her math scores have never been below 130.

  This made Li Xiaobai think of his former deskmate again, who was also in a similar situation as Xia Xiner, but he didn't know how she was doing now.

  Damn it, why think of her again? She's the one who started all this trouble.

  Xia Xiang'er, who was physically exhausted, didn't have the strength to continue, and Li Xiaobai naturally didn't force her.

  Girls are vengeful, and he, who originally disliked girls, did not want to be remembered by her.

  They walked back to the edge of the playground together, and Li Xiaobai and Xia Xinger sat on the corner of the lawn.

  Most of the students in the class are still engaged in group and residential activities.

  From an onlooker's perspective, they seem like two of a kind.

  However, Li Xiaobai would not be deceived by this illusion.

  Some people can still be discovered even when walking in a crowded pedestrian street.

  Some people even if they sit on the throne, no one respects them.

  Xia Xiner, wherever you are, is a shining star in the night sky.

  "You play basketball so badly." Xia Xiang'er tossed over a bottle of water and said casually.

  Who lost in the second confrontation? Why does she seem to have forgotten?

  "It's just because badminton happens to be my weakness. If we were playing one-on-one basketball, I would totally KO you!"

  Girls generally don't like playing basketball, unless they're like Lin Xin, a tomboy.

  "Since you're so confident, okay then, how about a one-on-one match in next week's physical education class?" Xia Xiner said with a provocative tone.

  No way!

  Another change, attitude.

  "Alright, don't cry when you lose later."

  When showing weakness is not an option, being tough is Li Xiaobai's style.
