Chapter 13: 13

Dripping Fragrant Sweat

Shen Man and Lin Shu decided to stand side by side, while Tan Kai took his place in front of Yin Ruxu.
Lin Shu served.

Using all her strength, the birdie went towards Yin Ruxu.

However, Tan Kai intercepted it and restrained a bit of his strength to hit it over the net.

Shen Man caught the birdie and flicked it back gently in a beautiful arc.

Seeing that it was about to fall on their side of the court, Lin Shu hurriedly ran over and hit it hard.

Tan Kai didn’t try to reach the birdie and when it landed, he picked it up and said, “Lin Shu, you violated the rules. We won this round.”

Lin Shu glanced at Yin Ruxu for a moment and then said declared, “We’re just play casually, so we don’t have to follow the official rules. As long as the birdie lands over the net, it’s our win.”

Tan Kai thought for a moment, then smiled and said, “I don’t have a problem with that. What about you girls?”

Shen Man curved the corners of her mouth and played with the racket in her hand without saying anything.

Yin Ruxu carefully peeked at Lin Shu and bit her lip, replying in a soft voice, “I don’t understand the rules, so I’ll go with whatever Lin Shu says.”

Lin Shu became angry, and there was a trace of cruelty in her eyes.

The game starts again.

Tan Kai held back his strength when serving, hitting it in Lin Shu’s direction in a way she’d definitely be able to make it.

Lin Shu received the birdie and continued to aim it towards Yin Ruxu.

At this time, Tan Kai decided to avoid it and let her play.

However, Yin Ruxu didn’t make it and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, now we lost again.”

“It’s okay, we’re just casually playing.” Tan Kai smiled, not caring at all.

It’s time for Lin Shu to serve again.

This time, Lin Shu stood in front, and her shoes stepping on the service line.

Seeing this, Tan Kai told Yin Ruxu, “You can stand in front, stepping on that line is fine too.”

“But it feels wrong to step on the line.” Yin Ruxu whispered, with timid eyes.

“It doesn’t matter, just have fun. We don’t have to stick to the rules.” Tan Kai replied.

Yin Ruxu nodded obediently and stood in front, only stepping a small part of the line.

Lin Shu served with a lot of force, forcing the birdie back.

Tan Kai received it and gently passed it forwards to Yin Ruxu.

Yin Ruxu was able to hit the birdie back over the net.

Lin Shu looked at Tan Kai in dissatisfaction.

Tan Kai just smiled and looked at Shen Man, saying, “Don’t worry, Shen Man and I will help you pass the birdie.”

“Who wants you-.” Lin Shu sneered, but then quickly swallowed back the 4 words ‘to be so nosy’, and caught the ball attentively.

Shen Man stood behind her and hadn’t moved from her position yet. She quietly watched Lin Shu run around in front of her.

The wind from running around blew the girl’s skirt up, revealing her proportional, pale legs.

Her white shirt was soaked with sweat and clung to her slender waist, outlining a graceful curve in her figure..

Shen Man lifted the corners of her lips and her eyes moved along with the back of the delicate girl.

Playing with her had already consumed a large part of her strength, but Lin Shu didn’t seem to know the word ‘fatigue’. She is still excited, as if she had boundless energy.

After watching the game for a while, Shen Man noticed that Yin Ruxu was very clumsy and she didn’t use any techniques.

Of course, Lin Shu is also like a newbie– all she knows is how to hit it to the front and back. With Tan Kai, who knows how to play, helping in the middle, the two rookies played for more than a dozen rounds.

In the end, Lin Shu won.

Lin Shu smiled happily and looked back at Shen Man. Because she ran continuously, her small face turned red but was full of pride, like a kitten who’d won a fight.

Shen Man smiled and asked, “Do you want to continue playing?”

“Of course.” Lin Shu raised her chin slightly with a proud face.

Yin Ruxu wiped the sweat off her cheeks and covered her mouth with her hand, gasping in a low volume.

Tan Kai asked, “Lin Shu wants to continue, how about you?”

Yin Ruxu smiled gently, “It’s okay, I can continue.”

“Lin Shu wants to continue and there won’t be a good outcome if I refuse.” She added.

Tan Kai didn’t hear the hidden meanings in her words and said to Lin Shu with a smile, “How about you two play while Shen Man and I take a break.”

“No, you both have to join in.” Lin Shu vetoed the idea with a tough attitude.

Tan Kai naturally had to go along with her.

Shen Man has no problem.

After a short break, the four changed positions.

It’s still time for Lin Shu to serve.

Since Lin Shu consumed a lot of physical strength, this time, she couldn’t run all over the court as before. Her strength when swinging the racquet had also become weaker.

The same is true for Yin Ruxu, and her physical strength is even worse than that of Lin Shu.

Neither of them had much strength, so the birdie just flew around sloppily.

Shen Man watched the birde fly around over and over in complete boredom. She and Tan Kai were not needed at all.

Suddenly, Yin Ruxu reached out her racquet to the birdie as she jumped up, swinging with all her strength.

The birdie finally flew over to Shen Man.

Seeing this, Shen Man calmly raised her hand and was ready to hit the birdie back.

However, Lin Shu was feeling competitive at this time, so she looked up at the trajectory of the birdie and ran backwards accordingly.

She seemed very absorbed in her movement and didn’t see the situation behind her. Suddenly, she crashed into Shen Man.

Shen Man didn’t expect this outcome and wanted to quickly reach out to catch her.

Unfortunately, she was already prepared to flick the birdie back and couldn’t change her actions in time. With a ‘bang‘, her racquet collided with Lin Shu’s racquet.

No one had been able to hit back the birdie, so it quietly landed on the ground.

Lin Shu’s wrist was hurt, her racquet had been knocked out of her hand, and she toppled backwards.

She did not weigh on the heavy side, but the force of her running was enough to knock Shen Man back a bit.

Shen Man immediately threw away her racket and grabbed Lin Shu’s body with both hands.

“Why didn’t you hit it back?” Lin Shu glared at Shen Man angrily. The sweat on her forehead trailed down her long, black hair and onto the back of Shen Man’s hand.

She was so furious that her eyes were wet and slightly red. There was no way to tell whether she was hot, or just angry.

Shen Man held the soft body in her arms as her nose was filled with the unique fragrance the young girl. Even if her body was covered in sweat, it did not change her sweetness and softness.

She was helpless about her strong reaction to the outcome of the game. Shen Man lowered her head and said straightforwardly, “We’re just trying to have fun, don’t worry so much about winning or losing.”

“But I just want to beat her!” Lin Shu replied angrily, her eyes full of rebelliousness as she grabbed Shen Man’s arm in an effort to get up.

As soon as she got up, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle and fell right back into Shen Man’s arms with a painful expression on her small red face.

“Is it sprained?” Shen Man asked.

Lin Shu pouted in anger and turned her head away, not wanting to talk to Shen Man.

When Tan Kai heard the commotion, he immediately ran over in concern, “I’ll take you to the infirmary.”

“I refuse.” Lin Shu stubbornly answered. Seeing Yin Ruxu walking this way, she shouted, “It’s Shen Man who bumped into me, so she has to help me to go to the infirmary.”

After saying that, she looked up at Shen Man with unyielding arrogance in her eyes.

Tan Kai also looked towards Shen Man with a pleading look in his eyes, “Please send her there.”

Shen Man still looked nonchalant as she nodded and helped Lin Shu up.

When passing by Yin Ruxu, Yin Ruxu bit her lip and apologized nervously, “I’m so sorry, Lin Shu, I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t expect you to not be able to get the birdie.”

“Are you okay?” She asked with concern.

Lin Shu ignored her and turned to Shen Man, “It’s all your fault, you made me miss.”

Shen Man didn’t argue with her and said, “I’ll help you to the infirmary.”

Only then did Lin Shu look satisfied and said delicately, “My foot hurts, carry me on your back.”

Shen Man lowered her body and felt Lin Shu lying on her back, grabbing her shoulders.

Shen Man wrapped her hands around those pale, tender thighs and grasped it with her fingers.

The touch under her hand is soft, smooth, and elastic– it was like a very bouncy jello.

Shen Man’s eyes flashed, and she was ready to move her fingers and use her wrist instead.

The girl on her back laughed and asked in a high-sounding way, “Shen Man, why aren’t you talking today? Are you a mute now?”

Shen Man hooked his lips, maintained his original posture calmly, and joked with a smile, “The Eldest Miss is angry. How dare I speak?”

Lin Shu paused and let out a ‘hmph‘ saying, “As long as you understand.”

*

Shen Man arrives at the infirmary with Lin Shu on her back.

At this time, there were several students taking an IV inside.

Seeing two people coming in, several of them look up.

Lin Shu accepted those surprised gazes in a calm matter and her mood instantly became better.

Shen Man ignored everything and walked straight to the doctor. She gently put Lin Shu down and said, “She sprained her ankle and suffered a slight injury to her wrist. Please check her condition.”

Lin Shu’s face brightened up in a big smile and she asked in surprise, “How did you know my hand was injured?”

Shen Man glances at her wrist and replied matter-of-factly, “The racquet had flew out of your hand, of course you’d have some injury at the very least.”

Hearing this, a strange emotion flashed in Lin Shu’s heart, but her mouth was relentless, “It’s all your fault, you had to fight for that birdie with me. If you didn’t do that, I wouldn’t get hurt and we wouldn’t have lost.”

Shen Man stands there without saying a word, just looking at the doctor.

“Student, please stretch out your feet and let me check.” The doctor said in an amiable tone.

Lin Shu did as told, but when the doctor pressed her ankle, her small face couldn’t help but wrinkle up in pain, “It hurts…”

“It’s a little sprained but fortunately your bones aren’t affected. I’ll prescribe an ointment for you to apply to the affected area and you’ll be fine in a few days.” The doctor said.

“Is there anything that she needs to be more careful with?” Shen Man asked.

“No, no, it’s just a minor sprain. For a boy, he’d be up-and-running after a night of rest” the doctor replied.

Shen Man immediately understood the meaning in those words.

Lin Shu’s injury is not a big issue and she can easily recover. However, seeing as she seemed delicate and arrogant, the doctor prescribed something mainly to appease her.

“My foot hurts so much. You have apply the ointment for me right now.” Lin Shu frowned and took her help for granted.

“Nn.” Shen Man answered as she helped Lin Shu to the rest area and took the prescription to get the ointment.

While Lin Shu was sitting down, she decided to gently raised her ankle, causing her face to instantly wrinkle up in pain.

Shen Man coincidentally came back with the ointment and seeing Lin Shu’s painful expression, she asked, “Does it really hurt that much?”

“Of course, it hurts so much that I can’t even lift it up. Maybe I won’t even be able to walk tomorrow and become disabled.” Lin Shu pouted and the pain made her tone feel very aggrieved.

Shen Man: “…”

She really underestimated the degree of her spoiled temper.

“I’ll give you medicine now.” Shen Man opens the packaging and took out the tube ointment inside. She kneels down and then looks up at Lin Shu, saying, “I’ll be taking off your shoes.”

Lin Shu humphed and said with some fear, “Do it gently.”

“Mhm.” Shen Man held Lin Shu’s ankle with one hand and wanted to take off her shoes with the other.

She hadn’t even touched the shoes yet when Lin Shu looked like she had been electrocuted, groaning, “It hurts so much… Shen Man, do it gently!”

Shen Man stopped her movements and raised her head to stare at Lin Shu coldly, warning her, “Don’t scream, just bear the pain.”

“But how can I when it hurts?” Lin Shu complained in an aggrieved tone, tears filling up in her eyes.

Shen Man gave her a cold look, then lowered her head to continue holding Lin Shu’s ankle again with her left hand. She pinched the heel of the shoe in her right hand and slowly took off the shoe with a little strength.

Next are the socks.

After such a long period of exercise, Lin Shu’s foot didn’t smell at all and her white, round toes looked very beautiful.

Shen Man did not have a foot f*tish, but she still thought the girl’s feet were really just exquisite and beautiful.

Without lifting her head, she says, “I’m going to apply the ointment now. Don’t move your foot around.”

Lin Shu’s sniffed with her red nose and silently bit her lips. She grabbed the back of the chair and her whole body was tense, as if she were about to escape at any time.

Shen Man applied the cold ointment on her ankle and gently massaged it with two slender fingers.

Lin Shu blinked and gradually got distracted as she stared at her serious facial profile.

Suddenly, she felt a pain in her ankle, so she instinctively raised her foot, kicking kicking Shen Man’s chin.

Shen Man looked up with a trace of anger in her eyes.

Lin Shu looked timid and nervously explained in a small voice, “I didn’t mean to. Who told you to press me there, I couldn’t control my foot at all.”

Saying that, she regained her confidence and raised her voice, “It’s all your fault that I got hurt in the first place.”

Without arguing, Shen Man put down the ointment and said, “If you apply this three times a day, your ankle will be fine two days.”

Looking at Lin Shu’s expectant look, Shen Man added, “Do it yourself.”

Lin Shu wanted to refute, but she sneered at Shen Man in the end with cold eyes. She put on her socks and shoes herself.
