The physical examination was scheduled for today. Not only their major and their class, but also several groups of people were scattered on the playground near the art building. They all had sad faces, and were tortured by the physical examination to the point that they couldn't even laugh.
"I'm really drunk. Is that called a seated forward bend? Just change it to five-horse dismemberment."
Lin Shan had just finished watching the forward bend exercise of the next class, and returned to his own class. He sighed tiredly and sat down in the empty seat next to Xie Jiaran.
"Jia Ran, you saw it, the boys in Class 5 were stiffer than carrying poles, their waists were almost broken, and they could only push out 8 centimeters. It was a tragedy."
Xie Jiaran was fiddling with his phone. Hearing this, he turned to look at him and asked in confusion, "Did you just push 3?"
"... ..."
Lin Shan was speechless and said quietly, "Brother, I have a suggestion for you. When you mock me, you don't have to be so sincere."
"I'm not mocking you." Xie Jiaran withdrew his gaze calmly: "I'm just confirming the information."
"You call this soft sarcasm, which is still sarcasm in essence. No matter, I'm already hurt anyway."
Lin Shan cried out in grief, "Luckily the Sports Committee was kind enough to fill in 13 for me, saving the hard ligaments that an old pole like me can't pull."
He complained for a while, and seeing Xie Jiaran just staring at his phone and ignoring him, he curiously looked over and asked him, "What are you doing so seriously? Could it be the formal logic question bank?"
"No." Xie Jiaran lied to him: "It's our school forum."
"You still read forums?" Lin Shan was surprised. "This will shock my mom for ten thousand years. When did you become interested in these campus gossips?"
“It’s not gossip, it’s a voting post.”
Xie Jiaran saw that the gap between Liang Sunian and the second place in the school hunk post was getting bigger and bigger. He scrolled down a little and found that almost all the replies were "enthusiastic" comments with Liang Sunian's name.
What's worse, some people even called him husband with an obvious male ID, which made the corners of his mouth straighten and the wrinkles between his eyebrows could kill a fly.
On the other hand, the frequency of the second place being mentioned with a big name is almost zero.
His fingertips slid across the screen unintentionally a few times. He suddenly thought of something and turned to ask Lin Shan, "Is there any way to stop people from voting in the voting post? Or to make the first place drop to the second place?"
There are only three red voting stickers on their school forum all year round, one for the school beauty, one for the school hunk, and one for the statue in the central square.
The voting post Xie Jiaran mentioned must not be the one on the square statue. As smart as Lin Shan was, he guessed it right away: "Don't you want Liang Shen to continue to be the school hunk that everyone is paying attention to?"
Xie Jiaran nodded, and then added hesitantly: "Actually, this is not a good idea, right? I don't have the power or the position to make decisions for him."
"What the hell, it's weird that you have this idea."
Lin Shan said calmly, "As for liking someone, the first thing that comes out of it is possessiveness, and as your lover, what he wants to see the most is also your possessiveness. This is called the romantic interest in love, and it is also the most valuable and delicious seasoning."
He said: "And I don't think you have the power or the position. Believe it or not, if you tell Liang Shen about this idea now, he might even delete the post according to your wishes."
Xie Jiaran asked why.
Lin Shan said: "Why else? He spoils you."
It must be said that Lin Shan's words caused Xie Jiaran to have a momentary emotional outburst.
But in the end, reason triumphed over emotion.
"No," he said.
He felt that Lin Shan didn't understand, but he himself knew very well that Liang Sunian was not doting on him now, he could only call him taking care of him.
There is care between alumni, there is care between brothers, there is care between roommates... it's all good, but it will never be care between lovers.
He would not act rashly until he was absolutely sure of what was going on.
If a boy declares his love to another boy whose sexual orientation is unclear and fails, the cost will be too high. They may become more and more distant, and in the end they may not even be friends.
He doesn't want this.
Seeing that this idea didn't work for him, Lin Shan changed his mind flexibly: "Jia Ran, you don't only pay attention to the school hunk posts, do you? Have you read the school belle posts? Do you know that you are the school belle?"
Xie Jiaran nodded and said, "I know."
Lin Shan said: "It is common sense that the school belle and the school hunk are officially recognized as the official couple. You must know this, right?"
Xie Jiaran's mind flashed, and he seemed to understand what Lin Shan meant.
Lin Shan smiled and said, "So I don't think you need to care too much about those things. It's great the way it is now. You two are the school hunk and the school belle, and your relationship hasn't developed far enough to become an official couple. Tell me, who would pursue you so awesomely?"
"Do you want him to drop from the top of the list because you want to be an official partner with someone else, or do you want him to be an official partner with the second most beautiful girl on campus?"
"Don't be fooled by the way those guys are talking so loudly about being your boyfriend and your husband now. When you and Liang Shen are really together, they will definitely howl louder than anyone else. Do you believe it?"
"Don't worry, go for it, Ranbao. Think about the votes you guys cast for the title of the official wife. All the alumni of National Tsing Hua University are cheering for you."
"Xie Jiaran, Lin Shan! Come here quickly, the 1,000-meter race has begun!" The physical education teacher stood on the other side of the track holding the registration form and called them from afar.
"Holy crap, he still came at my hell moment."
Lin Shan got up crying and shouted "I'm coming". He ran over there and turned back to call Xie Jiaran: "Let's go, Jiaran. The sooner we finish running, the sooner we'll be free."
Xie Jiaran nodded, lowered his head and turned back to the homepage of the post. He cast one vote for himself and Liang Sunian respectively, then put away his phone and stood up to follow.
"Have you warmed up yet?"
"We've already come to the last item in the test. The sports commissioner, you're asking nonsense questions."
"I'm just worried that you guys, a bunch of unlucky lazy bastards, might hurt your muscles after running."
The physical education teacher smiled and said, "Okay, just warm up. Don't rush too fast. I've given you an extra 30 seconds. Any more will be fine. The teacher from the next class is helping to keep an eye on you."
"Long live the Sports Committee! I will love you for ten thousand years!"
"So do I!"
"Go away, verbal thanks are not worth it, if you are sincere, just come back and buy me some milk tea."
"What's the problem?"
Lin Shan and Xie Jiaran were recognized as the two boys in the class who lacked the most athletic nerve, so when preparing for the race, everyone subconsciously let them line up at the innermost lane.
"Jia Ran, don't be anxious for a while, let's just run slowly. The physical education committee gave us an extra 30 seconds, so we can easily pass the test."
"Um."
When the whistle blew, everyone came out.
Xie Jiaran was really bad at athleticism, and his athletic endurance was even worse. He began to feel his steps heavy after running one lap of the two and a half laps.
Lin Shan was a little better than him, at least his steps were still a little more brisk.
"If there's one thing that makes me hate campus life, it's definitely the physical fitness test, and I'm forced to participate in the project competition!"
Lin Shan complained while panting intermittently: "I hate my luck!"
Xie Jiaran: "Say less and save some energy, we still have one and a half laps left."
"Ahhh, I'm in so much pain!"
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. Once he did, Lin Shan became even more desperate: "I will never again curse my boyfriend as a starving ghost. I would rather have eight hundred rounds of sex with him in bed than run this damn thousand meters!"
"... ..."
Xie Jiaran couldn't comfort him as this involved a blind spot in his knowledge.
I struggled to finish the second lap, and looked at the finish line. Several boys had already crossed the line. After recording their results, I didn't rush back. I just stood there and shouted at the top of my lungs to cheer on those procrastinators.
Xie Jiaran took a deep breath and sprinted for the last half lap.
My lungs are about to explode.
My calves were stiff, and every step felt heavy as if they were filled with lead.
It's really painful.
He thought that there was indeed nothing more saddening in his student life than the physical examination.
Finally, I held my breath and crossed the finish line amid the exaggerated cheers of my classmates, and rushed forward by inertia.
But just as he heard the sports committee announce that he had to reduce the time by 30 seconds and he didn't know if he could pass the test, his heart suddenly turned pale and his legs went limp, and he fell to his knees due to exhaustion.
My right knee scraped against the uneven plastic track, causing an immediate burning pain.
There were cries of surprise everywhere, and a group of people rushed over. They didn't dare to help him, so they could only squat in a circle anxiously and ask him how he was. They didn't think he was seriously injured.
Xie Jiaran shook his head to indicate that he was fine and it hurt, but he was more tired now.
He felt dizzy and gasped for a long time before he recovered. At the same time, his pain nerves finally received the command a beat late, and the wound began to burn.
His skin was white, and the abrupt scratch on it made him look particularly scary.
The sports committee member quickly came closer to take a closer look, exhaled, and waved his hand: "It's nothing, don't worry, it just looks serious, but it's just a superficial abrasion. Apply some medicine and the scar will heal in two days."
"Hurry to the school hospital first."
Su Xiaoyue said: "Last time I fell, I also went to the school hospital. They helped clean the wound and applied some topical medicine, which healed quickly."
Lin Shan, who was also out of breath from exhaustion, also recovered and quickly squeezed in the innermost part: "Come on, come on, it's a special situation, so let's not be too particular. I'll help you to the hospital."
The classmates quickly stood up to make way.
It was a long way from the playground to the school hospital, and the two of them walked slowly for nearly 20 minutes before arriving.
After cleaning, the wound was still red and swollen, and looked even more serious.
The doctor gave him a dose of liquid ointment for external application, along with a pack of cotton swabs for applying the ointment: "Apply twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Remember not to touch water, otherwise the wound will easily become inflamed and will heal very slowly."
"Okay, okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor."
Lin Shan helped to take the ointment and immediately wanted to apply it on Xie Jiaran. However, just as she opened the cotton swab bag and started to work, she was stopped by Xie Jiaran.
"No, I'll go back to the dormitory."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Lin Shan said, "This is a bit painful."
"Well, don't worry."
Xie Jiaran insisted, and Lin Shan had no choice but to dutifully send the baby to the dormitory, and reminded him to remember to apply medicine and not to let the baby come into contact with water before locking him up and leaving.
The class group was constantly filled with messages, with everyone tagging him and Lin Shan inquiring about the situation. Xie Jiaran clicked on it, roughly relayed what the doctor said, reported that he was safe, and turned off his phone to check his injuries.
After walking for a while, the wound started to bleed soon after it was cleaned.
Xie Jiaran tapped the wound lightly with his fingertips a few times, stood up, turned on the dormitory light, and took a careful photo of the wound with his mobile phone.
In the photo, there was a large circle of redness and swelling around the bleeding wound. At first glance, the injured area seemed larger than the actual area, and against the cold white skin background, it was so miserable that it was heartbreaking.
He gave the photo to Liang Sunian, who pinned it on the top post.
I got a reply in almost one second:
Previous years: ??? Where did you hit? Why is it so serious?!
x. : I accidentally fell while running during the physical test.
Previous years: Have you been to the school hospital? Have you taken medicine? Why is it still bleeding
x: I've been there and got some external compress medicine, and it still works.
Liang Sunian took a look at the photo, clicked his tongue, and frowned into a knot.
SuPrevious Years: Why not go
x. : The doctor said it would be a little painful...
Previous years: /knock head/knock head
In previous years: waiting.
Xiao Chi was taking notes when he noticed that there was silence beside him. He saw Liang Sunian packing up his things and asked in confusion, "Brother Liang, are you leaving?"
Liang Sunian: "Yeah."
Xiao Chi looked at it for a while and said, "It's still more than half an hour before the get out of class ends."
Liang Sunian kept talking: "Half an hour is half an hour. Xie Jiaran is injured. I have to go back to see him."
Xiao Chi cried out, and quickly asked, "Where is the injury? Is it the head or the shoulder? Is it serious?"
Liang Sunian: "I fell while running during the physical test and got a big scrape on my leg."
"Oh." Xiao Chi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's not serious, why don't you wait until the get out of class is over before going back? Old Chen said that there will be roll call five minutes before the end of get out of class, and if you are not there, your usual marks will be deducted."
Liang Sunian said, "You guys help me get by for a while. If it doesn't work, just let him deduct the score. I'll pass it back by myself at the end of the semester."
Xiao Chi wrinkled his nose and said, "No way, brother, you don't care about the deduction of points, why are you so nervous?"
"Don't talk without any hesitation. If your child fell, would you be nervous?"
Liang Sunian pulled the corner of his mouth and picked up the book: "I'm leaving first. I'll help you later if the situation permits. If it works out, I'll treat you to a meal later."
After saying that, he took advantage of the time when the teacher turned back to write on the blackboard, bent over and quickly slipped out of the classroom.
They were in the habit of printing the class schedule and posting it on the wall. Xie Jiaran walked to Liang Sunian's seat and took a look at his class schedule. Then, he checked the time and found that he should be taking a political science and law course, which would end in half an hour.
He looked down at himself. He had just fallen down, and he felt that his body was covered in dust and was so dirty that it was unbearable.
At this time, I still remembered the doctor's advice not to get wet.
However, when he took a handkerchief and a change of clean clothes to the bathroom and prepared to wipe the wound without touching it, he always felt that it was not wiped clean and it was even more uncomfortable to be hanging there, so this reminder was thrown to the back of his mind.
Anyway, I will apply the medicine soon.
He took a shower and soaked himself from head to toe, thinking that he would just clean the wound again.
The wound was wet and the pain became worse.
Xie Jiaran took a deep breath and could only speed up the washing. He turned off the water, carefully wiped off the water droplets on the wound, then dried his body, put on his clothes and was about to put on his pants when he heard a sound of footsteps coming from the dormitory.
It can’t be Liang Su Nian.
This was Xie Jiaran's first reaction. He was still in class and was surprised to come back so soon.
But then, he heard Liang Sunian calling his name.
He paused immediately, and two thoughts flashed through his mind:
Liang Sunian skipped classes for him.
Li Tang and Shen Xuehao were still in class and had just returned. Now they were the only two in the dormitory.
The decision is just a matter of seconds.
He raised his hand and threw the clean pants into the dirty clothes basket.
He picked up a woolen cotton towel for drying his hair, and slowly walked out of the bathroom wearing only a loose shirt that was so big that the hem was enough to cover his legs.
