Steady as She Goes

"One, two, one, two."

On the sports field of Yinshan Academy, the students were currently warming up.

"Heave-ho, heave-ho." Tang Keke stretched her limbs. To avoid spraining her waist like last time, she kept her movements small, afraid of repeating the same mistake.

Beside Keke, Bai Yuyou was also twisting her body in a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. Compared to Tang Keke's caution, her movements were much larger. Her limbs were no longer as stiff as before, and her long arms and legs were fair and straight, elegant as a white swan.

"Keke, should I help you stretch your legs?" Bai Yuyou asked after tying her hair into a ponytail with a hairband.

"Okay."

After the two girls tossed about for a while, they finally finished warming up and were ready to run.

"Girls eight hundred meters, boys one thousand," the PE teacher said. With the blow of a whistle, the whole class started running.

"Keke, are you okay?" Bai Yuyou jogged, her ponytail swaying behind her with her movements.

"Hmph, hmph, don't underestimate me!" Tang Keke took a deep breath and suddenly sped up. "Let's go!"

Seeing this, Bai Yuyou originally wanted to call out a warning, but she just followed suit.

...

"Ah, pant... ah, woo, I'm dying." After a distance of merely two or three hundred meters, Tang Keke was already supporting her waist with her hands, her running posture wobbling all over the place. "Ah, I can't... I can't catch my breath."

"Keke..." Bai Yuyou's condition was much better than Keke's. Aside from slightly rapid breathing, she had no other issues.

"Keke, are you okay?" Right at this moment, a voice came from beside them.

Tang Keke looked over and saw that Taozi had caught up. Her expression hadn't even changed; this level of exertion seemed to be just a minor issue for her.

"Keke, you should exercise more," Taozi said.

"Easier... easier said than done." Tang Keke clutched her chest. "It hurts..."

"You guys run, I'll take it slow."

"It's fine, there's someone else doing about the same as you," Taozi said, and Tang Keke followed her gaze to look back.

"Woo woo woo, I'm gonna die." A few meters away, another girl was running crookedly, looking like she was about to burst into tears. "For the glory of the Anshi family."

It was An Shiyaya.

Tang Keke: "..."

You are so weak.

You couldn't blame Tang Keke for roasting An Shiyaya. After all, An Shiyaya was tall and had long legs; who would have known that she would be so weak when running, looking like she could collapse at any moment.

"Keke, you are very similar to Yaya," Bai Yuyou also chimed in.

"True."

After finally finishing the run, they made it to the free activity time.

"Exhausted." Tang Keke just wanted to lie down immediately.

"Keke, you sprinted too hard just now," Bai Yuyou stood beside her and said. Then, as if noticing something, she realized that the place where she had left her jacket was surprisingly filled with drinks.

[To Classmate Bai Yuyou] There was also a small note with a heart on it.

"Drinks?" At this time, Tang Keke also noticed the several bottles of drinks, and quite a few people around were looking over, as if paying attention to something.

"Whose are these?" Bai Yuyou was also a bit confused as to why these drinks were placed next to her clothes. They looked unopened, but there were too many of them, encompassing almost every type.

"They were probably given by people who like you." Tang Keke understood it well enough. After all, Bai Yuyou was so popular; it wasn't strange for admirers to come over and give her drinks during PE class. That was obvious from the note addressed to Classmate Bai Yuyou.

It felt like they could set up a small street stall to sell drinks.

"To think they bought so many, it's really a headache."

Right at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side. The two girls turned their heads toward the sound, only to find Zheng He appearing there, looking at the drinks on the ground with a smile on his face.

"Even if Classmate Bai Yuyou is extremely thirsty, she probably doesn't have the stomach to drink all that, right?" He put on a somewhat troubled expression.

When he noticed Bai Yuyou and Tang Keke's gazes falling on him, he revealed what he thought was a handsome smile.

"..." Bai Yuyou nodded. She indeed couldn't finish that many drinks.

Except for food.

Tang Keke was also a bit puzzled as to why this Zheng He was appearing here again. She asked doubtfully, "Classmate, you're from the class next door, right? Do you also have PE class?"

"I'm in the student council. I just happened to be passing by," Zheng He smiled, then continued speaking to Bai Yuyou.

"Then, how about I take these drinks that are troubling Classmate Bai Yuyou and distribute them to the cleaning ladies? After all, the weather has been a bit hot lately. Is that okay?"

Bai Yuyou didn't have any objections. Soon, Zheng He gathered up the drinks, smiled at Bai Yuyou and Tang Keke, and turned to leave, leaving behind only a dashing figure from behind.

"What a weird guy. Why do we always run into him?" Tang Keke couldn't help but wonder. Then she glanced at Bai Yuyou beside her, only to notice that Bai Yuyou had been silently watching Zheng He's retreating back.

"Yuyou?" Tang Keke reached out and waved her hand.

"Yuyou?" The girl tugged at the other's arm.

"Mhm." Only then did Bai Yuyou withdraw her gaze and respond to Tang Keke.

"Why were you staring at him all this time?" Tang Keke asked.

Hearing this, Bai Yuyou paused, her eyes lowering. "He... took my drink away too."

"Uh... huh? My drink was taken too!" Tang Keke immediately realized and widened her eyes.

After all, the drinks were piled together. In truth, besides Bai Yuyou and Tang Keke, no one else knew what they had actually bought for themselves.

"Forget it, they were unopened anyway. Let's just buy new ones."

"Mhm."

After the two girls turned and left, not far away, Zheng He placed the drinks on a table and distributed them to some spectating classmates. "Here."

"I say, Brother Zheng, is this trick useful?" A student twisted open a soda and started drinking.

"It's guaranteed to work, alright? Just look at Bai Yuyou just now. Her eyes were glued to Brother Zheng as he left. She definitely has some thoughts about him now."

"You know, she really was staring the whole time Brother Zheng was walking away."

"Wow, that's awesome."

Having finished handing out the drinks, Zheng He just gave a faint smile. "It's a minor thing. Handling a girl like that is too easy. Just watch my performance."

However, even Zheng He himself didn't expect the effect to be so good. He only wanted to leave a decent impression on Bai Yuyou, but he hadn't anticipated that she would silently watch him leave.

Based on his years of experience, Zheng He understood—

It was in the bag.

Winning over Bai Yuyou was going to be much easier than he had imagined. A girl like this, who rarely smiled or talked, was actually much easier to pursue than most girls.
