Tan Jiao

  I didnt expect to meet Wu Yu again so soon. Is fate like a thread in destiny, once entwined, it will continue to be entangled forever?

  A gentle breeze blew in the afternoon, clouds covered the sun, only revealing a azure background. The blue was so high, like some kind of boundless existence, silently gazing down at us.

  I went to the library in Xicheng District to borrow books. As an author, my quantity is naturally very large. The library has become a place where I often stay, even far exceeding the frequency of going during my student days. At that time, as an absolute academic scumbag, I never thought that later on, because of my hobby and dreams, I would fall in love with reading again.

  I was carrying 10 books, walking down the steps from the entrance of the library. Down below, theres a basketball court and also a mini soccer field. This place is still the districts open sports activity center. There were several men playing with their shirts off. I walked by the side of the court without looking sideways, when someone ran past me with a ball and shouted: "Hey! Miss Tan!"

  I found the voice very familiar, turned my head to look, wasnt it Xiao Hua who was promoting me to open a card at the repair shop yesterday? My heart skipped a beat for no reason, and I looked past his face to see Wu Yu standing not far away, with his hands on his hips, covered in sweat, also looking in my direction. The whole person looks a bit blurry under the sunlight.

  But those abs were finally exposed.

  And I can describe my feelings with just one word: Tsk...

  Such a man, even if hes just a repairman, hasnt many women thrown themselves at him and slept with him? - This thought slipped through my mind so wickedly. In my experience, many handsome men who seem to have style are actually very good at playing with womens hearts. Is he the same?

  I pretended to be reserved and greeted Xiaohua: "You guys are here to play football?"

  Xiao Hua said: "Yes, today is a rest day. My brother likes sports, and this place was found by him. He brought me here." After finishing speaking, she turned around and waved her hand at Wu Yu: "Brother Yu, Brother Yu!"

  Wu Yu stood still, didnt move, and didnt have the slightest intention of coming over to greet us. Xiao Hua shrugged and smiled at me, saying "See you later!" I nodded and continued on my way.

  But I dont know if its a coincidence or someone did it on purpose, just as I was about to leave the stadium, I suddenly felt something behind me, and then there were Wu Yu and several other mens voices:

  "Tan Jiao!"

  "Ah!"

  "Be careful!"

  I turned my head and saw a ball flying towards me. It was fast, but not so fast that I couldnt dodge it. Originally, I could have dodged it easily, after all, I had played soccer with my friends when I was young. But at that moment, I dont know what I was thinking, I took a step back and subconsciously stretched out my leg to intercept the ball for them.

  I forgot I was wearing a skirt and high heels, and also underestimated the weight of the books in my hands. And that ball didnt look fast, but it hurt so much when it hit my calf, the person who kicked it must have used a lot of force. I took a deep breath, fell to the ground, and the books scattered all over the place. The key thing was that I didnt block the ball, it hit the stairs behind me and bounced back, "thud" and hit my head again with precision. I couldnt help but cry out in pain, "ahh", clutching my head.

  Several men ran over, laughing heartlessly. I was extremely embarrassed and found it a bit funny myself. My knee hurt badly, and when I looked down, I saw that it was bleeding. As I struggled to get up with my hands on the ground, a hand stretched out in front of me.

  Coarse and slender repairmans hands.

  I lifted my head and saw Wu Yus quiet eyes under his short hair that was wet with sweat.
