Chapter 72: If You Don’t Listen, I’ll Carry You Home

After a satisfying full meal, An Ling felt that sitting and eating in the classroom every now and then wasn’t so bad.

It had a kind of Japanese anime youthful campus vibe.

The only problem was that Li Yang kept teasing her the whole time.

The nice atmosphere was completely ruined.

In the end, after An Ling landed a punch on his head, he finally settled down and ate properly.

The afternoon competitions proceeded as planned.

The relay races were class versus class, so the rankings weren’t that complicated.

They finished all the relays in a single afternoon.

An Ling’s class took second place.

There was no helping it.

Their class didn’t have any sports students.

Getting this ranking was already pretty good.

The homeroom teacher was quite satisfied as well.

After they finished the relays and returned to the classroom, the teacher even bought milk tea for every student in the class.

Once the competitions were over, they just needed to return to the classroom, take attendance, and they could go on break.

An Ling had to admit that sports day was truly wonderful.

They even got to leave half an hour early.

“Home, home, hurry up, An Ling-sama.”

There was no homework today.

Li Yang didn’t even bother bringing his books back.

He turned around and urged An Ling.

“What’s the rush? Did you get a shot of chicken blood or something?”

An Ling had no idea how he still had so much energy after participating in so many events today.

Her own legs were still a little sore.

“You’re like this every day. How are you just like a dog?”

An Ling couldn’t help retorting.

“Do I look like a dog?”

Li Yang leaned onto An Ling’s desk and moved right up to her face, looking at her.

Too close!

Alarm bells rang in An Ling’s heart.

At this distance she could even see the fine patterns in Li Yang’s pupils.

“Don’t… too close.”

She stretched out her small hand to push him away, but she couldn’t move him even a little.

“Even if I look like a dog, it’s because a certain someone bit me before and I never got a rabies shot!”

“You!”

An Ling instantly flushed red. “Who! Who bit you!”

“Some guy who grew a puppy tail, that’s who.”

Li Yang didn’t know why, but he just liked teasing An Ling.

He enjoyed watching her shy little expressions.

“Ahem, I’m still here, you two. Don’t go too far.”

As class president, Zhou Meng felt she ought to step in.

Are these two really not a couple?

Looking at An Ling’s little face, she simply couldn’t treat her as a boy no matter what.

“You two can continue your flirting after you get home.”

“Who! Who…”

An Ling bristled all over. “Who’s flirting! Class president, don’t talk nonsense!”

Zhou Meng couldn’t even be bothered to complain.

This little wolf still hasn’t realized that her reaction just now was exactly like a lovestruck young girl.

Forget it.

She had no intention of disturbing the two of them anyway.

“Fine, fine, fine. Whether you were or weren’t is up to you, An Ling. I’m going home. I still have a lot of novels left to read.”

Before An Ling could even react, Zhou Meng dashed off in a flash.

Wang Hao naturally had nothing to say.

He had already made plans with people.

He had flown out the moment the homeroom teacher stepped out of the classroom.

By now he was probably already at the internet café with a few of his usual buddies.

“Let’s go. Time to head home.”

“We still have one last practice this afternoon. I’ll help you relax your leg muscles afterward.”

“We’re still practicing~?”

An Ling slumped onto her chair and didn’t want to move. “My legs hurt so much. Can we skip practice today~?”

“It’s the last day. We have to cram a little, right? Don’t worry. I’ll help you relax your leg muscles afterward. I guarantee your legs won’t be sore tomorrow.”

“Alright, hurry up and let’s go.”

Li Yang pulled the unwilling An Ling out of the classroom.

All along the way An Ling was still throwing a little tantrum.

Around Li Yang she always couldn’t help acting like this.

Li Yang felt like he was dragging a puppy that didn’t want to go home.

Thinking of that, he couldn’t help laughing out loud.

“What are you laughing at?”

“I’m laughing at you. Don’t you look just like those puppies in videos that refuse to go home with their owner?”

“Who are you calling a puppy?!”

An Ling got angry and huffed, becoming even less willing to walk.

“Do you know how those puppies finally get taken home?”

Li Yang turned back with a wicked smile and stared at her.

“How do they get home?”

“Those puppies all end up being carried home by their owner. If you still refuse to walk properly, I’ll just have to put in a little effort and carry you home myself.”

Carry me home!

An Ling bristled all over again.

They had only just left the school.

If she got carried home now, she would definitely be famous at school tomorrow.

“No! Absolutely not. I’ll walk properly, okay?”

“Last chance. If you still don’t walk properly, I’ll just have to put up with a little inconvenience.”

“You! You’re threatening me!”

An Ling was angry, but she still obediently followed Li Yang’s pace.

There was no helping it.

This thick-skinned guy Li Yang would actually do what he said.

She really didn’t want to be carried by Li Yang during the after-school rush.

That would be social death for sure.

Li Yang watched the way she obediently caught up.

An Ling was still easy to handle.

The curve of his mouth grew even wider.

“That’s more like it. If you’d just listened earlier, wouldn’t it have been better?”

“Shut up! Just walk!”

An Ling puffed up with anger and sped up, walking ahead of Li Yang.

But her legs were still sore.

Before long she slowed down again.

“Already can’t walk? I thought you were going to charge straight home.”

“You still have the nerve to say that!”

An Ling said unhappily. “It’s all your fault.”

“Fine, fine, fine. My fault.”

Li Yang smiled and admitted it. “After practice, leave it to me.”

My technique is first-class, Li Yang added in his heart.

An Ling pursed her lips.

She always felt he didn’t have any good ideas.
