The next day was the rehearsal day of the cheerleading team. On Friday, it was getting closer and closer to the preliminaries. In order to prepare for a formal rehearsal, the teacher stipulated that all the team members had to change into performance uniforms on that day.
Lu Yan and Deng Man are both members of the cheerleading team. After class, they hurried to the bathroom to change their clothes.
The performance clothes are white short T-shirts and short skirts similar to tennis clothes. If they are worn on tall girls, the length of the skirt is about ten centimeters above the knee. For students, the style of this skirt is too short and lively. Fortunately, I only wear it a few times, and the skirt is equipped with leggings, so I don't have to worry about running out.
The two got dressed and came out. Tang Jie was still waiting outside. As soon as she saw Lu Yan, she leaned on her enviously: "Lu Yan, your legs are really white and straight. I'm fine."
"Enough is enough." Lu Yan took the schoolbag handed over by Tang Jie, "Let's go first, if you want to watch our rehearsal, come to the basketball hall later, and we'll go home together after training."
Tang Jie suggested: "I don't go to school tomorrow, or let's eat Mala Tang at the back in the evening."
Deng Man objected: "I have to go home after training,"
Tang Jie glanced at her: "That's not you, I'll go with Lu Yan."
Afraid of being late, Lu Yan and Deng Man hurried to the basketball hall as soon as they came out of the teaching building.
When they got there, the female teacher in charge of the training had already arrived, and Lu Yan hurriedly ran to the usual rehearsal position and stood up.
The rehearsal time is usually set half an hour before the players' training. Who would have guessed that the boys of the basketball team would arrive just after they had formed their formation that day.
There is a long row of benches for rest on the side of the court, Jiang Chengyi and the others sat on the chairs as soon as they came.
Ding Jing was at the forefront of the team. When she saw Jiang Chengyi coming, she said hello to the teacher and ran over to talk to him.
Lu Yan followed the teacher's warm-up actions in a straight-forward manner. When she turned around, she inevitably glanced over there.
I saw Jiang Chengyi wearing a blue jersey with a pair of white sneakers underneath, a black knee pad tied to his left knee, a wrist pad on his left hand, and ordinary playing equipment. However, unlike others, he wears everything from head to toe. Appears very clean.
She thought about it, even if the boy talked about hygiene, after all, he was always engaged in sports, and it was impossible to be clean and decent to this level. There must be someone in his family who often helped him change and wash his clothes.
She couldn't help thinking that she was sitting in the audience reading comics a few days ago, and his basketball had soiled the uppers of the shoes. After returning home, she brushed the uppers for a while before whitening them.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at him more.
His attention was all on the few teammates beside him, and occasionally he received a couple of Ding Jing's words, while he was talking, he was absent-mindedly playing the basketball in his hand.
She noticed that whether he was playing basketball or shooting, he was left-handed and should be left-handed.
Just guessing, two eyes fell on her face. She raised her eyes to meet him, only to realize that Jiang Chengyi had looked this way at some point, his eyes were pitch black, as black as his hair.
She turned her face hastily.
At this time, the teacher clapped his hands and said loudly: "The rehearsal is about to begin, and the students who haven't returned to the team are coming back to the team soon. In a few days, there will be a basketball league competition for middle school students. Our cheerleading team can not only help bring the atmosphere on the field, but also represent our No. 7 middle school. So the students must take these rehearsals seriously.”
Saying that, the teacher bent down and pressed the play button on the speaker.
The background music is a popular song of a Korean girl group. The teacher thinks that this song is not only very rhythmic, but also more joyful. It is the perfect opening song for a cheerleading performance.
As soon as the music started, many people in the audience immediately cheered.
I don't know how the news spread, but in short, all the students in the school knew that the cheerleading team members changed into their performance uniforms today, which is the moment to feast their eyes, so many students came to watch the performance that day.
The performance movements were already well-known by heart. Lu Yan jumped a few positions, thinking of Tang Jie, and glanced at the audience from time to time.
There were too many people, and after searching for a while, I couldn't see Tang Jie. She just changed her formation. Her legs were slightly apart, and she bent over to pass the cheerleading ball from her left hand to her right hand. The sight of the person behind.
It is Jiang Chengyi. He held a can of drink in his hand, but he didn't drink it, as if he had been staring at her back for a long time. The moment she turned around, his face flushed and he slowly looked away.
After the jump, the teacher was obviously very satisfied with the training results, praised everyone, and announced that everyone could temporarily retire.
Lu Yan and Deng Man went to the auditorium to find Tang Jie while sweating.
Tang Jie had a crush on a boy with a baby face in the basketball player at the time. She had been thinking about talking to that boy. After she finally found a chance to watch the game, she naturally refused to leave.
The three had to sit side by side.
Deng Man was in a hurry to go home, and after watching for a while, he left early.
During the intermission, a boy came over from the auditorium next door to say hello: "Lu Yan."
Lu Yan looked up and saw that it was a boy from the fourth class named Yu Mao. He had good grades, was tall and strong, and also liked to play football.
Yu Mao had written love letters to her before and confessed to her face to face, but they were all rejected by her on the grounds of "focusing on study".
As soon as Yu Mao walked to the side, he discussed with the girl next to Lu Yan in a low voice. The girl was very knowledgeable and immediately changed positions with Yu Mao.
Tang Jie glanced over here, seeing that she was one of Lu Yan's suitors, she didn't care, and continued to eat snacks.
"You danced really well just now." After Yu Mao sat down, he scratched his head and smiled at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan noticed a bright red pimple on his face, smiled and said politely, "Thank you."
"How did you do in the mid-term exam this time?" Yu Mao thought about what to say.
Just as Lu Yan was about to answer, there was an uproar on the field, and she heard Tang Jie complain: "What happened to Jiang Chengyi, the three-pointer that he was about to get, just flew like this."
In the next dozens of minutes, Yu Mao was busy talking to Lu Yan. Lu Yan tried to get away several times, but was detained by Tang Jie.
"Let's have a snack at the back of the school and then go home." Tang Jie winked at her. She had always wanted to confess to the boy and needed Lu Yan to cheer her up.
Finally, Tang Jie went to talk to the boy, while Lu Yan went to the bathroom of the basketball hall to change clothes.
After changing his clothes, he came out and found that Yu Mao was still waiting outside.
He looked at the time on the Nokia mobile phone and said, "It's almost half past eight, it's very late. It's not safe for you two girls to go home, or I'll take you back."
"No need." Lu Yan said hurriedly, "We just took a taxi and left."
Yu Mao stared at her and said helplessly, "I knew you wouldn't, so I'll accompany you to the head office at the school gate."
He could no longer find a reason to refuse, so Lu Yan had to go with him.
After waiting in the aisle for a while, before Tang Jie came out, Lu Yan sent her a text message: "How about I wait for you at the Mala Tang at the back of the school?"
After sending the text message, just as she was about to leave, Lu Yan's phone rang. It was Tang Jie.
"I'll come out."
At the same time, I heard someone say from behind: "Yu Mao, I'm looking for you for something."
When Lu Yan turned around, she saw that several boys had just come out of the lounge. The one who was talking was the sports committee member of Class 4.
Yu Mao went over and said, "What's wrong?"
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Chengyi also came out, his eyes first fell on Lu Yan inadvertently, and then he looked at Yu Mao.
Seeing this, the man from the fourth class hurriedly grabbed Yu Mao's shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's go, I have something to look for you."
It doesn't mean that Mao objected, the group forcibly dragged him away, and quickly dispersed.
After the meeting, someone shouted at the door, "Jiang Chengyi, don't forget to come over later."
The lights were not bright, and the noise had gone away. In a blink of an eye, only Lu Yan and Jiang Chengyi were left in the corridor.
Jiang Chengyi stood for a while and then walked out. Lu Yan stared at the depths of the aisle and waited patiently for Tang Jie to come out.
The aisle is not wide, only two people can pass side by side.
When he approached, she smelled a little perspiration, which was not bad, and warmed the surrounding air a bit.
Seeing that he was about to pass her, she was considering whether to turn sideways to distance herself from him, but he suddenly stopped. Immediately afterwards, the basketball in his hand suddenly slipped and landed on her shoe again.
Lu Yan was surprised.
Jiang Chengyi bent down to pick up the basketball and straightened up: "Classmate, I'm so sorry, or I'll give you a pair."
She looked up at him and said nothing.
His expression and tone were serious, but there was a faint smile in his eyes, and he didn't mean to apologize at all.
