The Disobedient Girl Awakened

Chapter 11: Missed act

A basketball flew towards them swiftly. Xia Yao was startled as the projectile aimed towards Xu Yinuan’s face. She quickly pushed her out of the way and threw the volleyball in her hand. The two balls collided in the air and the impact lessened a lot.
Coincidentally, the ball she had thrown hit Xia Xi’s knee and helped her complete her task at the same time. The soft little flower fell to the ground instantly.
“Which blind guy has disabled eyes?” Xu Yinuan cursed loudly and looked at the basketball court. She frowned but the panicked expression on her face had not entirely cleared yet.
Xia Yao patted her on the back and pointed at a short boy who ran to them: “The blind guy is coming over.”
It was a short, dark-skinned teenager. He was breathing heavily and didn’t dare to look directly at Xu Yinuan’s eyes.
“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to!”
Xu Yinuan sneered and rolled her eyes but she knew the boy hadn’t aimed at her on purpose and she accepted his sincere apology: “Be careful next time.”
The short boy kept apologizing again and again and Xia Yao glanced to the other side, only to find the fragile heroine on the ground with red eyes, surrounded by a group of people comforting her. Xia Yao hadn’t used too much strength and after hitting the other ball in the air, her throw had been greatly weakened; it should have only lightly touched Xia Xi.
“Let’s go pick up the other ball.” She ignored the boy and pulled Xu Yinuan towards the crowd.

Xia Xi’s eyes were red and she looked like a white little bunny. She was on the ground, surrounded by both male and female classmates.
“Xia Xi, it’s okay. But your sister is too much, she hit you with a volleyball!”
The teary girl replied with a small voice: “My sister didn’t mean it, she must not have seen me…”
“Don’t say more, Xia Xi. You always defend her but she always bullies you!”
“My sister is actually very good, don’t talk to her like that. She has bad grades but wants to make progress, so I tutor her every day…”
“Xia Xi, even the first grade of the school can’t teach her rotten brain. Don’t waste your time with her!”
Xia Yao happened to hear them from afar; the heroine was really the incarnation of a white lotus! When had Xia Xi ever taught her anything? Wouldn’t she know if she was being tutored at home?
The crowd instinctively gave way to Xia Yao and the girl faintly glanced at Xia Xi who was still on the ground, before picking up her ball indifferently.
“Xia Yao! Quickly apologize to your sister! You hit her on purpose!” Xia Xi’s good friend exclaimed.
“Oh.” Xia Yao looked at the ball in her hands, “Should I take you to the infirmary?”
She then watched Xia Xi’s act.

Xia Xi was taken aback, she had been sitting there for so long and was actually waiting for someone else to send her to the nurse. She had not expected Xia Yao would offer it instead.
She glanced through the crowd at the teenagers who were still on the court and felt inexplicably bitter. She was injured and couldn’t get up, why wouldn’t they come to her help?

Seeing that she wasn’t answering, Xia Yao stretched out a friendly hand and tried to pull Xia Xi up. But the girl’s eyes were still focused on the boy not too far away.
She had not expected that someone who looked so nice and gentle and with such good academic performance could also play basketball well. And there was also the boy in a black shirt who loved small animals. Although he was a little scary, he was really handsome.

Xia Yao looked a little unhappy but helped her sister get up: “Does your knee still hurt? I will take you to the nurse.”
After being pulled by someone, Xia Xi finally retracted her gaze and staggered two steps before standing up. She covered her left knee with her hand and her eyes were still red. She didn’t actually get hit; when the ball had reached her, the strength of the throw had already entirely weakened. But the ball had been hit by Xia Yao, which was different.
But as she was hesitating whether she should follow the person she hated the most to the infirmary, the hand holding her arm loosened.
Xia Yao sighed: “Dear sister, pretend better. The ball hit your right knee.”

The students who hadn’t dispersed yet were startled and looked at Xia Xi’s hand on her left leg. The girl who had been closest to her could indeed remember she had been hit on the right side.
Just like this, Xia Xi’s mind went completely blank. She quickly covered her right leg and opened her mouth: “I, I just…”
“You just forgot you were pretending just now, right?” Xia Yao stood comfortably and quietly looked at her.
“I…”
The people around who were eating melons didn’t speak. Xia Yao’s aura was so strong they were even afraid to breathe, and they looked at Xia Xi’s red face instead.
“It’s not red and it isn’t swelling. Could it be that the volleyball caused some internal injury instead?” Xia Yao’s gaze was on the girl’s knee and Xia Xi felt that both her legs were starting to hurt. She noticed the eyes of everyone on her and the emotions in them looked a bit strange.

Xia Yao didn’t want to bother with her any longer and her task had been completed. As she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something and said: “By the day, when did my dear and wise sister started helping her stupid sister with her lessons? I don’t remember ever enjoying your tutoring!”
Xia Xi raised her head in astonishment, she had not expected Xia Yao would hear so much of her conversation. At first, she had only complained to her friends about Xia Yao’s stupidity and inability to understand anything. As a result, her friends had misunderstood that she was teaching her and started believing Xia Xi was very kind. Since her friends had thought so themselves, Xia Xi had decided to go with it.
As Xia Xi was standing still, Xia Yao thought that she really didn’t need to go see the nurse and she turned and walked away.

***

After class, Xia Yao and Xu Yinuan went to the convenience store to buy water and heard a shriek from the freezer next to them. They glanced at it curiously and saw the short boy who had almost hit them earlier. He had been punched in the face; his left cheek was red and swollen and the corner of his mouth looked split.
It was really a shame to hit someone in the face!
“How did that happen? Look at you now, what a mess, haha.” The student next to him laughed.
The short boy picked up a bottle of ice water and put it on his face. He also felt this situation was strange: “I don’t know what’s going on. I didn’t offend Master Xu, why did he come at me? Does he think that with my strength I am worthy of being his opponent?”
“Haha, stop dreaming. At your level, how could Master Xu look at you?” The two teenagers picked up their drinks and walked away.

Xu Yinuan who was beside Xia Yao listened to them too and was a little puzzled: “Master Xu? How come I never heard of such a character? I haven’t seen any handsome guys on the court!”
Xia Yao chuckled and went to pay for her bag of potato chips. When she turned around, she saw Xu Shizhou’s back.
His black shirt was soaked with sweat and clung to his body, drawing a lean muscle outline. The hem was lifted even higher than when she had seen him earlier and it was obvious he exercised all year round and fought fiercely.
Yes, really not easy to mess with!
Xu Shizhou had a bottle of yogurt and a bottle of mineral water in his hands. He paid no attention to the gaze of the people around him and walked straight to the checkout counter.

The convenience store after PE was crowded with students but they all gave way to him and it happened that it was the short boy’s turn. His friend poked him in the arm and tried to pull him away.
“Who wants to cut the line, don’t they know that first come first serve?” The boy looked impatient and his voice was a little loud. He had already been beaten on the court earlier and now people wanted to cut the line!
His friend’s face turned pale and he tugged at him again, leaning closer to whisper: “It’s Master Xu.”
The short boy took a breath and his momentum dropped instantly. He got out of the way and wished a hole would open at his feet and swallow him.
Xu Shizhou passed by indifferently and went straight to the cashier. He dropped the things in his hands and said: “Checkout.”

Xu Yinuan, who was also waiting to pay with Xia Yao, mumbled with some pity: “Turns out this Master Xu was Xu Shizhou.”
Xia Yao: Turns out that Master Xu is the third dog Xu. Excuse me, I am still trying to figure out the author’s routine.
“Xia Yao.” Xu Yinuan held Xia Yao’s arm, “I’m going to climb the wall again1. Master Xu is so domineering, it’s been too long. Why didn’t I know my husband was sitting behind you?”
Xia Yao: It’s not good for you to like anyone, you always pick one of the licking dogs of the heroine!
“He goes to school every day but always sleeps on his desk. That must be why you haven’t seen his face clearly before.” Xia Yao carried her chips and walked towards the counter.
“Yes, he always disappears right after the bell rings, I never really saw him from up close.”
Xu Yinuan looked at the boy’s back lost in thoughts, “I really want to touch his abs.”
“Close your mouth, you’re drooling on my clothes.” Xia Yao looked at her friend with some disgust.

Perhaps the teenager who was slowly leaving heard them as he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at them. The short boy who was currently checking out was frightened but Xu Shizhou ignored him.
“Xia Yao.” The boy spoke in a lazy voice and his eyes swept past all the people waiting in line.
Xia Yao was not sure he was talking to her.
“Here you go. Help me with the lessons after school.” As soon as his words fell, he turned around once more. Xia Yao lowered her head and saw she had instinctively caught what it had thrown her: a bottle of yogurt.
“Wait a minute!” She hurriedly stopped the boy who was about to leave, “I just had PE, I don’t want to drink something sweet!” She threw it back at him.
Xu Shizhou frowned and his calm face became a little dark.
— Ah! He gave her something but she was so picky! Girls were so troublesome!

When Xia Yao returned to the classroom, a bottle of mineral water was waiting on her desk and a lazy voice came from behind: “Mineral water, tasteless. Quench your thirst.”
