Chapter 3: 5KW Human Lightbulb 2
After watching Star Wars, Xu Zhe was the first to walk out of the cinema, with a look of unsatisfied expression on his face.
Li Su and Su Han lagged behind by two steps, whispering with their heads leaning against each other.
Li Su clenched his fists: "Quick, you must find a way to leave now!"
"I know! " Su Han nodded quickly and asked in a low voice, "What are your plans later?"
"Shh... I spent a lot of money to reserve a couple's flower petal lunch in advance!"
"You're awesome!" Su Han nodded in admiration. "Then I'll pretend to make a phone call and sneak away."
Xu Zhe walked for a while, felt something was wrong and turned back. Su Han hurriedly took out his cell phone from his pocket, turned on the screen, and pretended to talk while turning a corner and walking away.
Just as Xu Zhe was about to catch up, he was stopped by Li Su.
"Don't wait for Hanmei, she said she has something to do and will be away for a while. She will come back to have lunch with us when she is free!"
"Oh...really? Where did she go then?"
Li Su lied with a guilty conscience: "Well... maybe it's something about the basketball team? I don't know..."
"Basketball team? Zheng Hao? Is it him?" Xu Zhe looked back several times, but there was no sign of Su Han.
After waiting for several more minutes, Su Han hid behind the wall. Only when Xu Zhe and Li Su walked away did he heave a long sigh of relief... Li Su, Li Su, I have put a lot of effort into this date with you. It is more tiring than going on a date by myself!
She turned around and wandered aimlessly on the street.
The shop windows on the street were filled with all kinds of goods. Su Han was walking alone on the bustling street and suddenly felt it was much quieter.
Li Su and Xu Zhe are like two friends who never get bored. I really can't get used to it without them...
After walking around for a few hours, she wrapped her coat tightly around her, took a breath of the late summer air with the scent of grass, and prepared to go home.
Passing by the street near her apartment, suddenly, a familiar figure walked towards her from the crowd. It was a tall and thin boy, wearing a black T-shirt, with thin-framed glasses that made his skin look particularly white, and he looked handsome and gentle.
"Du Xu!" Su Han raised his hand and greeted him.
Du Xu is the former captain of the HKUST basketball team. Due to his busy research studies, he often could not participate in activities. In addition, Zheng Hao had a high reputation in the basketball team, so he recommended Zheng Hao to be the captain.
"Hi, Su Han!"
Du Xu, carrying a takeaway, walked through the crowd and came to her: "What a coincidence, Su Han. Have you had lunch?"
Su Han shook her head, smelled the aroma of roast duck coming out of the bag, and suddenly felt her stomach growling, and quickly covered her stomach in embarrassment. It was actually one o'clock after watching the movie, and she had only .
Du Xu also heard the sounds of her stomach. He smiled kindly, put his arm around Su Han's shoulders and walked towards the park nearby: "Come on, come on. I just bought too much. Let's go to the park to eat together! By the way, let me talk about the last training match... I didn't go."
Su Han was half-pushed into the park, and the two sat down on the grass, ready to start their picnic.
Du Xu was like a friendly big brother next door. He prepared everything for her, including chopsticks, disposable plastic sheets, paper towels... He was very different from ordinary boys and took care of girls very gentlemanly.
Du Xu rolled a piece of roast duck with dough and handed it to Su Han: "I haven't had time to go to the basketball team recently. How is Zheng Hao doing?"
Su Han took a bite and replied vaguely: "Huh? Aren't you and the captain childhood friends? Shouldn't you know more about this than me?"
"I went out for an internship during the summer vacation. I just came back two days ago. I haven't seen Zheng Hao for a long time!"
Su Han suddenly realized it. But to be honest, she had just become an assistant for the basketball team and didn't know much about Zheng Hao's private life...
Du Xu asked while eating, "I heard Zheng Hao is also going to do an internship?"
Su Han shook his head: "No, I heard that he just went to study in the UK during the summer vacation and stayed there for a month."
Du Xu said "Oh", thought for a while, and then spoke again: "What about the basketball club? I heard that they want to select a new captain? Is it because the student union wants to recruit him to be the president?"
Su Han couldn't help but choke on her food. She had never even heard of these things!
"Ahem! I really don't know! If you want to know, just go and ask him."
"Haha... let's not talk about Zheng Hao anymore. I thought you were very interested!" Du Xu pushed his glasses and gave a meaningful smile.
"I... I'm not really interested! I just care about it occasionally..."
Su Han's face suddenly turned red. Did everyone know that she liked Zheng Hao?
"Really? All right."
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Su Han felt like he couldn't eat anymore, so he quickly stood up and said, "Well, I'm full, let's go sit on the swing over there in the park for a while to help digest the food!"
Su Han wanted to be alone for a while, but Du Xu came over and said, "Let me help you push it!"
Just as Su Han was about to say no, Du Xu had already pushed the swing. His movements were gentle and slow, and he didn't let the swing swing too high.
Su Han still felt very embarrassed and became very nervous.
Suddenly, she didn't know what Du Xu behind her did, but he seemed to be getting closer and closer, so close that she could smell his scent, which immediately made the hairs on her body stand up.
"What do you want to do? Let Su Han go!" Suddenly, an angry shout sounded from behind.
Su Han was startled, and someone pulled her down from the swing. She staggered and almost fell to the ground, but the person's broad hand grasped her hand and supported her firmly.
Xu Zhe stood in front of her with an angry look on his face. The familiar and refreshing smell coming from his body made Su Han feel warm and at ease.
"Xu Zhe?" she asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Xu Zhe did not answer her. He looked at Du Xu sharply, and a layer of frost seemed to cover his handsome face: "What are you doing? Stay away from her!"
Su Han looked at Du Xu in confusion.
Du Xu dodged his gaze and pushed up his glasses: "Excuse me, who are you? Do I need your help with what I'm doing?"
Hearing the provocation and contempt in the words, Xu Zhe narrowed his eyes: "I've already reminded you not to get so close to Su Han. If you don't understand, I can let you know why I care." As he said that, he waved his fist.
Du Xu took a step back and finally gave in: "But, Su Han and I are good friends. Isn't it normal for us to be close to each other?"
Su Han hid behind Xu Zhe and was completely confused.
What on earth happened just now? Why are these two people so hostile to each other?
"Hmph, so good friends can just ignore other people's feelings and force a hug?" Xu Zhe sneered, "This is the first time I've seen such a 'good friend'." After saying that, he ignored Du Xu's darkening expression and pulled Su Han away.
