Which is More Difficult, Love or Sports?
Chapter 29
In August, the National High School Comprehensive Sports Competition (IH/High School Cup) was held in Hokkaido. Shiratorozawa Gakuen's volleyball team was eliminated in the top eight.
Wakari Ushima and Tiantongjue, as substitutes, didn't play.
Since they didn't play, they didn't need any consolation or encouragement.
Of course, even if Wakari Ushima and Tiantongjue lost the game, they didn't need that kind of straightforward consolation or encouragement.
Because they were the champions of the IH Miyagi Prefectural Qualifiers, Shiratorozawa Gakuen's volleyball team didn't need to participate in the Chuntaka Miyagi Prefectural Qualifiers in August. Instead, they directly participated in the Chuntaka Miyagi Prefectural Qualifiers in October.
Shiratorozawa Gakuen's volleyball team members also got five days off.
"But I still have to go to the hospital to help."
Tian Tong Xing lazily rested her head on Mao Xiong's body. She was talking to Wakari Ushima on the phone. Her voice was a little tired. "There are more guests coming to the hospital. I've been very busy recently.
I only applied for a day off. "After returning from the beach that day, Tian Tong Xing and Wakari Ushima hadn't seen each other for almost two weeks.
Tian Tong Xing suddenly felt that she and Wakari were simply Zhi Ji and Xia Yan, and volleyball was the Jade Emperor.
But she and Wakari weren't married, and they didn't slack off on their work. _ (: з 」 ∠) _
"Do you need help?" Wakari Ushima's voice was a little worried.
"No need.
Wakari also needs a good rest. "
Tian Tong Xing yawned silently. Her voice was a little nasal, and it sounded like she was acting coquettishly. "But Wakari, don't worry. I'm off on the 13th."
August 13th was Wakari Ushima's birthday. It happened to be the third day of the volleyball team's vacation.
Tian Tong Xing fought hard to get this day off.
Tian Tong's father didn't want to approve the leave at first, but Tian Tong's mother made the final decision. Tian Tong's father understood and gave up.
"Then, does Ah Hing want to come to my house that day?"
Tian Tong Xing was a little sleepy at first, but now she was a little more awake.
G?
To Wakari's house? "
"Yes.
That day, her mother came back from a business trip.
She's usually very busy with work and doesn't spend much time at home, "Wakari Ushima said." It's rare for her to come back, so I want to formally introduce Ah Hing to her. "
Tian Tong Xing thought for a moment and asked, "Well … Auntie, do you like sweets?"
Wakari Ushima seemed to laugh on the other end of the phone. "You don't have to be so polite. It's good that Ah Hing is willing to come."
Tian Tong Xing said seriously, "It's not like that. You can't be rude when visiting elders."
"Well, Ah Hing is right." Wakari Ushima seemed to be in a good mood. "But you really don't have to be so polite."
Although Wakari Ushima emphasized that she didn't have to be so polite, it was impossible to be rude when visiting a male friend's house for the first time.
Wakari Ushima wanted to Tian Tong's house to pick up Tian Tong Xing, but Tian Tong Xing refused. She said that there was no reason for the birthday boy to go back and forth, and that she could take the bus herself.
Wakari Ushima didn't say anything at that time, but when Tian Tong Xing got off the bus, she saw Wakari Ushima waiting at the bus stop.
"Wakari, happy birthday." Tian Tong Xing walked quickly to Wakari Ushima. "Didn't I tell you to wait at home?"
"Thank you."
Wakari Ushima's eyes were deep, and his voice was a little hoarse. "I'm worried about Ah Hing going out alone."
Tian Tong Xing's cat eyes curved slightly. "I'm sorry to make Wakari worry."
Wakari Ushima shook his head and saw Tian Tong Xing carrying a beautiful gift bag. He could vaguely see the beautiful square lunchbox in the gift bag. He looked a little helpless. "I said you don't have to be so polite."
Tian Tong Xing blinked and just looked at Wakari Ushima without saying anything.
The distance between Ushima's house and the bus stop was a little far to walk, and a car had to take a detour, so Wakari Ushima rode a bicycle.
Tian Tong Xing held the gift bag in one hand and the folded skirt in the other. She sat on the back seat of Wakari Ushima's bicycle.
Today, Tian Tong Xing wore a tight chiffon dress and carried a large one-shoulder canvas bag.
The dress was a fresh light blue, and the color became lighter as it went down. It was pure white by the end of the dress.
The collar was off-shoulder, and the sleeves were stitched with a layer of fluffy lace. The large pleated skirt was slightly above the knees, revealing a section of her calves.
If she didn't grab the skirt, the skirt might have been twisted into the wheel.
Tian Tong Xing looked sideways at Wakari Ushima's straight back and felt a little regretful.
If she wore a short skirt, she could do a backup … Thinking about it, it was quite a girl's manga.
"We're here." While Tian Tong Xing was letting her imagination run wild, they arrived at Ushima's house.
Ushima's house was a traditional Japanese-style house. It was obvious from the outside that it occupied a large area.
As soon as they entered the front yard, a servant came to greet them and took the bicycle from Wakari Ushima's hands.
The front yard was lush with trees, and there was a volleyball court and a basketball court.
Wearing a British-style butler's uniform, his hair was gray, and his expression was both serious and gentle.
"Young Master Wakari." The butler stepped aside slightly. "Welcome back."
"Yeah, I'm back." Wakari Ushima nodded and briefly introduced the butler and Tian Tong Xing to each other.
The butler's name was Takeuchi, and he had been the butler of Ushima's house for more than 20 years.
"Where's Mom?"
Wakari Ushima asked Butler Takeuchi as he took off his shoes at the entrance. He didn't forget to support Tian Tong Xing, afraid that she would fall.
"I'm here." A gentle but cold female voice came from inside the house. "Come to the living room."
Wakari Ushima led Tian Tong Xing into the living room.
As soon as they entered the living room, Tian Tong Xing saw a middle-aged woman standing in front of the coffee table and drinking from a glass of water.
Her long eyebrows were neat, and her eyes were calm and deep. The fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes added an elegant charm that came with age.
Her cold expression carried a toughness that couldn't be ignored.
Probably because she was at home, she only casually tied her hair into a low ponytail. Her hair was slightly wet, and she wore loose sportswear with a towel around her neck. Obviously, she had just finished exercising.
Although the woman was dressed normally, her aura didn't diminish at all.
In addition, her back was straight, and her aura suddenly increased from 2.8 meters to 3.8 meters.
Tian Tong Xing blinked and was somewhat surprised.
This mother and son … why are they so similar?!
"Mom." Wakari Ushima nodded at Yushima Mama with an indifferent expression. "I'm back."
Yushima Mama put down the glass of water and nodded coldly in response. She slightly tilted her head to look at Xiang Tien Tong.
"Mom, this is Tian Tong Xing," Wakari Ushima said.
"I'm Tian Tong Xing. Nice to meet you." Tian Tong Xing carried the gift bag and respectfully bowed to Yushima Mama.
Tian Tong Xing suddenly felt Yushima Mama's gaze on her was covertly sizing her up and probing, but her tone was very gentle. "Yes, I know you.
Wakari has told me about you. "
When Yushima Mama said this, Tian Tong Xing inexplicably felt that Yushima Mama's body seemed to be very tense.
She felt that Yushima Mama seemed to be more nervous … With this thought, Tian Tong Xing slightly straightened her body and handed over the gift bag in her hands. "If you don't mind, these are some snacks I made. I hope they'll suit your taste." Her dark cat eyes curved slightly, and she pursed her lips and gave Yushima Mama a faint smile.
"Thank you."
Yushima Mama took the gift bag. Her gaze seemed to be gentler, and her body seemed to relax a little. "You're welcome. You can come empty-handed in the future." With that, Yushima Mama handed the gift bag to Butler Takeuchi, who was waiting by the side.
Butler Takeuchi understood and took the bag to the kitchen.
"I'll go back to my room first. Wakari, take good care of Ah Hing."
Yushima Mama said as her gaze fell on Tian Tong Xing. "Ah Hing, don't be restrained. Just treat it as if it's your own home."
"Okay, Mom." Wakari Ushima's expression was indifferent as he nodded in agreement.
"Yes, thank you." Tian Tong Xing bowed again.
Yushima Mama nodded and turned to go up to the second floor.
When Yushima Mama's tall and straight back disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Tian Tong Xing let out a small sigh of relief.
"Is Ah Hing nervous?"
Wakari Ushima held Tian Tong Xing's hand and gently rubbed the back of Tian Tong Xing's hand with his thumb in a somewhat comforting manner.
"A little." Tian Tong Xing held Wakari Ushima's hand back. "Don't touch it. It's itchy."
Wakari Ushima held Tian Tong Xing's hand and led her to the second floor.
"Please come in." Wakari Ushima opened the bedroom door and made an inviting gesture.
"Sorry to disturb —" Tian Tong Xing looked sideways at Wakari Ushima before stepping into Wakari Ushima's bedroom.
Wakari Ushima himself was very cold and tough, but the design of the bedroom was very simple and warm.
The air conditioner in the room was rotating, but the temperature was very moderate. Tian Tong Xing didn't feel cold even though she was only wearing thin socks on the mahogany floor.
The bay window was an antique design that was pushed up from the bottom. The beige window screen filtered the scorching sunlight into soft light.
Bright sunlight shone in from the window, filling the windowsill and most of the room.
The two sides of the windowsill, which was designed as a two-seater sofa, were covered with thick, dark curtains.
The log-colored wooden desk was very large. Half of the desk was filled with a computer, stereo, and CDs. The other half of the desk was filled with teaching materials and exercise books.
The same color wooden bookshelves were neatly arranged with all kinds of comics and magazines.
The bed was very large. The black, white, and gray bedding showed a bit of the owner's cold style.
In the corner of the room, there were two volleyball casually placed on the shelf.
When Tian Tong Xing was looking at Wakari Ushima's bedroom, Butler Takeuchi brought in tea and snacks for the two of them.
He put the tea and snacks on the windowsill behind the bay window sofa, and put a box of tissues next to it. Butler Takeuchi quietly left and considerately closed the bedroom door.
Wakari Ushima pulled Tian Tong Xing to the bay window sofa and sat down. He casually threw the cushion on the sofa to the side and poured a cup of tea for Tian Tong Xing. The unique aroma of Keemun red immediately dissipated with the flow of the air.
"Thank you."
Tian Tong Xing put her backpack on the windowsill. She propped her head up and looked out the window. She found that all she could see was lush greenery.
She took the teacup with both hands and sniffed it. Then she took a small sip of tea, and then another sip.
Wakari Ushima also poured a cup of tea for himself. He only drank half of it before putting down the teacup.
When he saw Tian Tong Xing put down her teacup, he picked up a piece of pastry and fed it to Tian Tong Xing.
Tian Tong Xing wanted to take the pastry and eat it herself, but Wakari Ushima avoided her hand.
After touching her head, did Wakari Kun become interested in feeding her?!
Tian Tong Xing silently covered her face. She obediently ate the pastry in Wakari Ushima's hand.
To make it easier for her to eat, she even held Wakari Ushima's wrist with both hands.
Tian Tong Xing finished the pastry and was about to take a tissue to help Wakari Ushima wipe off the crumbs on his fingertips, but Wakari Ushima withdrew his hand.
Before Tian Tong Xing could react, Wakari Ushima had already finished the crumbs on his fingertips.
Tian Tong Xing: Σ (っ ° Д)
°;) っ Ruo, Wakari?!!! She was still holding Wakari Ushima's wrist!
The distance between the two of them was suddenly very close. It was as if their breaths mingled at that moment.
Tian Tong Xing quickly withdrew her hand and sat back down. She pretended to pick up the teacup and drink tea.
Wakari Ushima calmly took a tissue and wiped his hand. He said in a low voice, "Sorry, I have to leave for a while.
Ah Hing, if you're bored, you can read a magazine. "
Tian Tong Xing: "… Okay."
When Wakari Ushima walked out of the bathroom, Tian Tong Xing was standing in front of the bookshelf, casually flipping through a comic magazine.
She looked up and saw Wakari Ushima. She put the magazine back in its original position and quickly took two steps forward to grab Wakari Ushima's hand.
Wakari Ushima let Tian Tong Xing pull him back to the sofa by the bay window and sit down.
Tian Tong Xing turned around and took out a beautifully wrapped rectangular gift box from her backpack. She handed it to Wakari Ushima and said, "Wakari, happy birthday."
"Thank you."
Wakari Ushima took the gift box with both hands. He lowered his head and carefully untied the ribbon on the gift box before opening the lid.
Arm guards, elbow pads, two pairs of knee pads, and a baseball jacket — that was all the contents of the gift box.
Most of the protective gear was dark blue. Only the knee pads were dark gray.
The stitches of the protective gear were very fine, and the patterns were even more exquisite and complicated. It was soft and cool to the touch, like cotton, but it was even more comfortable to the skin.
The baseball jacket was a classic combination of black and white colors, but miraculously, there was no brand label.
"I thought Ah Hing had forgotten." Wakari Ushima looked at the two pairs of knee pads with bright eyes.
"Well, forget about it. Forget about it." Tian Tong Xing apologized. "I'm sorry."
“?
Why are you apologizing? "Wakari Ushima held Tian Tong Xing's hand." Thank you for your hard work. "
Tian Tong Xing's cat eyes curved slightly, and she motioned for Wakari Ushima to try on the baseball jacket.
Wearing the baseball jacket, Wakari Ushima unexpectedly looked a little more unrestrained.
But …
"It's a little loose." Wakari Ushima glanced at the sleeves that needed to be rolled up.
Tian Tong Xing looked carefully for a while before saying, "Wakari will definitely be taller in October than now."
"It's loose now, but it should fit him just fine by then."
Tian Tong Xing carefully smoothed out the wrinkles on the jacket, and her lips were tinged with a vague and soft smile. "This jacket suits Wakari very well. It's very handsome."
"Thank you." Wakari Ushima thanked her seriously, and then asked, "Can I take off the jacket?
It's a little hot. "
"Okay."
Tian Tong Xing nodded, and then turned around to take out a greeting card from her backpack. "This is for Wakari from Ah Jue."
Wakari Ushima took the greeting card, and carefully read Tian Tong Xing's blessings on the card. Then, he took off the baseball jacket and put it into the box, and put the box and greeting card on the first level of the shelf.
Tian Tong Xing looked at Wakari Ushima's tall and straight back. She thought for a while, then walked over and hugged his waist from behind, and pressed her cheek against his back.
Wakari Ushima's body instantly tensed up, and he didn't dare to move.
Hmm, Wakari's body seems to have gotten better.
Tian Tong Xing thought this, and her palms faced inward, and pressed against the youth's abdomen through a thin layer of cotton. She secretly felt the firm abdominal muscles, and the smooth muscle lines.
The next second, Wakari Ushima's hand gently pressed down on her hand.
Sensing that the youth's tense body was slowly relaxing, Tian Tong Xing asked, "The gift, do you like it?"
Wakari Ushima's fingertips stroked the back of Tian Tong Xing's hand. "I like it."
"If it's a volleyball jersey, will Wakari like it more?" Tian Tong Xing felt a little itchy, and her hands moved forward slightly.
Wakari Ushima's body tensed up for a moment, but when he heard Tian Tong Xing's words, he was a little confused.
“?
A volleyball jersey?
A team uniform? "
Tian Tong Xing was a little speechless as she patted Wakari Ushima's lower abdomen. "No."
"Actually, it doesn't matter what it is."
Wakari Ushima pulled Tian Tong Xing's hand away, turned to face her, and bent slightly. His dark brown eyes seemed to be burning with black flames. "Ah Hing remembers what he said to me, and remembers my birthday. I'm already very happy."
"Birthdays only come once a year, so of course we have to be careful."
Tian Tong Xing looked serious. "Besides, Wakari doesn't seem to be happy no matter what he does. I want to make Wakari happy."
The black flames in Wakari Ushima's eyes seemed to burn more fiercely. "Actually, there are still things that make me happy."
Tian Tong Xing: "…"
Wakari Ushima bent closer to her, his dark brown eyes dyed pure black by the black flames. "But when I'm with Ah Hing, I'm the happiest."
Tian Tong Xing's face heated up at Wakari Ushima's words and gaze.
She wanted to lower her eyes and look away, but her eyes were covered by Yushima Ruoli.
"Don't look down. My physiological reaction can't be hidden."
When he said this, his tone was still very calm, as though he was saying something very normal.
Tian Tong Xing: "…" Why was there a physiological reaction all of a sudden?!
No, no, no! The main point was, why was this person saying this so matter-of-factly?!
Could it be that she was really too pure?!
Before Tian Tong Xing could think of how she should react, she was picked up by Wakari Ushima, and in the next second, her entire body sank into the soft blanket.
Wakari Ushima trapped Tian Tong Xing in his arms and looked down at her from above.
The black, white, and gray bedsheets made the girl's pinkish skin look even fairer and more delicate. Under the light, it seemed to sparkle with a bewitching pearl.
She lay in the middle of the big bed, looking like a small and soft ball, which made her even more lovable.
Wakari Ushima looked down at Tian Tong Xing's ears, which were so red that they looked like they were about to bleed. He bent down and sucked on one of Tian Tong Xing's earlobes.
It wasn't a hard bed … Wait, now wasn't the time to think about this!
Feeling the immense pressure coming from Wakari Ushima, Tian Tong Xing's mind immediately went off with a danger alarm.
Tian Tong Xing's entire body tensed up. Just as she was about to raise her hand to push him away, her earlobe was already in his mouth.
Tian Tong Xing: "!!!"
Like a tidal wave, a numb and trembling feeling swept from her earlobes to her limbs. Her entire body became soft and weak. At the same time, she felt the "physiological reaction" that Wakari Ushima had just mentioned. Tian Tong Xing felt that her entire body was in a bad state.
Wakari Ushima sucked on Tian Tong Xing's earlobe and gently bit on it. He then let go of Tian Tong Xing's earlobe and gently bit her lip.
Wakari Ushima turned over and hugged Tian Tong Xing tightly in his arms, letting Tian Tong Xing rest on his chest.
Tian Tong Xing could hear the strong and powerful heartbeat in her ears. Through the thin and light summer fabric, she could feel the bulge against her thigh. Tian Tong Xing felt that her entire body was in a worse state.
She couldn't go on like this. If this went on, her mentality might collapse.
Tian Tong Xing took a deep breath. With some difficulty, she struggled out of Wakari Ushima's embrace and sat up.
However, the position she was sitting in was a bit wrong. Not only did Tian Tong Xing's waist almost go limp, but Wakari Ushima also suppressed a muffled groan.
Wakari Ushima's hands clasped Tian Tong Xing's waist. He was so strong that Tian Tong Xing felt that her waist might be broken.
She patted Wakari Ushima's chest and motioned for him to ease up.
When Oxishima Ruoli lightened his strength, Tentong woke up and felt better.
Seeing that Wakari Ushima seemed to want to speak, Tian Tong Xing raised her hand to cover Wakari Ushima's mouth.
"Don't talk." Tian Tong Xing narrowed her cat eyes. "Wakari has become more talkative recently."
Wakari Ushima blinked slowly, as if a little surprised.
Tian Tong Xing held Wakari Ushima's face with both hands. She kissed his forehead first, then kissed his eyebrows, down the straight bridge of his straight nose, and then bit the tip of his nose before kissing his thin lips that were always pursed.
This was a tender and sweet kiss that was constantly piling up with skill.
Their rapid breaths intertwined, and the fragrance of Keemun Hong seemed to linger between their lips and tongues.
The temperature in the room seemed to be rising with the kiss. It became ambiguous and hot, and the slight buzzing of the air conditioner seemed to be fading away.
Tian Tong Xing kissed Wakari Ushima's lips hard before ending the kiss.
She licked her lips, slowly bit Wakari Ushima's chin, and kissed it as if to comfort him.
Just as she was about to continue, there was a light knock on the bedroom door, and Butler Takeuchi's voice came from outside.
"Young Master Wakari, Miss Tian Tong, it's time for lunch."
"I know."
Wakari Ushima's voice was unusually hoarse. As he spoke, his hands were still wrapped around Tian Tong Xing's waist, and he refused to let go.
Tian Tong Xing's body stiffened. Three seconds later, she lay directly on top of Wakari Ushima and began to play dead.
The courage that she had accumulated had been used up.
The act that she wanted to complete in one go was also interrupted. Now, Tian Tong Xing's mind was only filled with three words with three punctuation marks —
So embarrassing!!!
Tian Tong Xing closed her eyes tightly and tried to curl herself into a ball, pretending that she was a cooked shrimp.
"Ah Hing's shy look is so cute," Wakari Ushima said as he gently rubbed Tian Tong Xing's waist.
Tian Tong Xing: "…" I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you.
Wakari Ushima put Tian Tong Xing back on the bed and kissed her tightly shut eyes. "Wait for me for a while."
Tian Tong Xing: "…" She fumbled around for a pillow and covered her face with it.
Wakari Ushima chuckled softly and planted a kiss on the back of Tian Tong's bright hand. Then he got out of bed and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
Hearing the soft sound of the door closing, Tian Tong Xing poked her head out and stared blankly for a while, then silently reached out to cover her face.
— — I'm not like you, Zhaoyan, who drives maglev every day.
