Chapter 84: He Must Have Something Against Me!

Ye Wuqi immediately wrapped his hands around Qin Zhaoyu's head and gave him an exaggerated air kiss. "Zhaoyu, you really understand me! I could just die from being moved! Mua~"

"Get lost, get lost," Qin Zhaoyu treated him like the plague, hurriedly kicking and pushing him away. "Good thing you didn’t actually kiss me, or I’d be disgusted for half my life!"

“Hahaha…” Yan Baba and Lei Xingxing laughed so hard they collapsed against the railing.

Qin Zhaowen, however, looked puzzled. “How does the school arrange things? Why is it that from our first to third year, we always have PE class with Class 1?”

Hearing this, Ye Luo also found it odd.

Class 1 had the best grades in the school, Class 19 the worst; sharing a semester of PE was normal, but every semester together seemed abnormal.

Ye Wuqi immediately grumbled, “I bet it’s the principal—he doesn’t like me, so he keeps making sure I run into that disgusting Gong Ran in PE!”

Qin Zhaoyu rubbed his rainbow-colored hair, shaking his leg as he laughed, “I’d rather believe the principal dislikes our entire class.”

“Right, right, right,” Yan Baba nodded vigorously in agreement, “Haha, our class is more of a headache for the principal than all previous years combined!”

At that moment, Qian Xiaoxing, who hadn’t spoken much, shyly said, “Class is about to start. Let’s head to the field.”

“You shouldn’t go.” Ye Wuqi and the others didn’t want Qian Xiaoxing to join, thinking his health was poor and he would just stand on the sidelines, unable to participate in PE.

Qian Xiaoxing smiled gently. “Watching from the sidelines is fine.”

“Alright then.” Ye Wuqi and the others didn’t argue further. Some grabbed basketballs, others badminton rackets, and they all ran off to the field.

Ye Luo, Qian Xiaoxing, and Qin Zhaowen didn’t run, falling behind the group.

Ye Luo carried a badminton racket, handed to her earlier by Yan Baba.

“Little Star, how’s your health lately?” Qin Zhaowen couldn’t help but ask, concern showing on his face.

Qian Xiaoxing gave a shy smile, “Pretty good.”

His face was ghostly pale, yet he claimed to be fine? Ye Luo turned to look at him, continuing toward the field and asked without any change in expression, “Why is your health bad?”

“I have a heart condition,” Qian Xiaoxing said softly, still smiling.

Ye Luo finally understood why he was the class’s top protected figure.

Qian Xiaoxing smiled again, shy as ever.

Already small and thin, he looked even more frail under the torment of illness.

---

Yet his attitude was optimistic.

He smiled again, his tone light, “I take medicine every day. As long as I don’t exert myself, there won’t be any issues.”

Three hundred years from now, heart disease would be a minor ailment, but in this era, it was no small matter.

Listening to Qian Xiaoxing and seeing his pallor, Ye Luo thought his condition was anything but encouraging. She said nothing more.

As Ye Luo and the others reached the field, the bell rang for class.

The PE teacher, a man, arrived blowing his whistle and ordered both classes to line up.

Ye Luo was the only girl in Class 19, and since Qian Xiaoxing was shorter than her, she wasn't the shortest, so she stood among Ye Wuqi and the others, like the moon among stars.

Once the line was formed, Gong Ran arrived.

He called out his report, then joined his classmates in Class 1.
