Racing To You [Liu Yuxin x Reader]

39. The Match

Y/N'S POV

Do you ever look at someone and wonder just what's going on inside their minds? That's exactly what's happening to me right now.

"Li. Ba. Shan he qi gai shi!" Xiaotang sang out loudly and even made a dance for it. She laughed loudly as she did so, obviously finding everything amusing.

She's right there in the middle of the field, dancing around with An Qi who's rolling her tongue and our other classmates. None of us is really minding it as it is a tad entertaining. Right now, we're all just sitting around while waiting for Lisa Laoshi to arrive and start our class. Maybe she'll make us do laps again on the field or even play something.

"They look like idiots." Yu Yan mumbled from where she's sitting beside me.
"Says the one who secretly wants to join them." I answered and leaned my back on the tree.

"Pfft... Me? Join in on that? What a lie." She rolled her eyes and huffed but her eyes remained on Xiaotang and the others.
"You didn't have to be so defensive. Look, even Lin Fan is there." I pointed.

Lin Fan being the social butterfly she is, is now dancing and participating with the others' craziness. While Yu Yan and I just stayed on the side and lazily resting against the tree. Well, that's my reason, at least, I don't know about Yu Yan. I'm just too lazy to be active and too excited because today is Friday, which means there wouldn't be any classes tomorrow.

"Hey, Y/N. Look at Lu Keran." Yu Yan called out, making me peel my gaze away from Lin Fan and turn.
"Oh, how interesting." I mumbled.

The girl was in a daze, alright. And what do you know? She's staring straight at Lin Fan, who's still goofing around with the others. She's also laughing quietly to herself, making me grin. I felt Yu Yan nudge me, making me turn and see her gesture for me to lean closer.

"We should interrogate her, and maybe scare her a bit just for the fun of it." She whispered.
"That's mean... Let's do it." I agreed, making the two of us slightly laugh.

"What better time to start than now, right? Let's both just glare at her and don't say anything." She suggested, making me just nod in agreement.

I kept my face blank and plain as the two of us turned to look at Keran. And it did take her quite a while to notice that we're staring at her. It might be because she's used to people staring at her, or she's too focused on Lin Fan. But when she finally did, we glared at her sharply and quietly. I almost wanted to laugh as she suddenly started choking, making the others turn to her.

"Why are you two looking at me like that?!" She uttered out and pointed an accusing finger at us. Yu Yan and I looked at each other, humor twinkling in our eyes before we looked back at Keran and feigned innocence.

"Looking at you like what?" Yu Yan asked, making Keran move around restlessly.
"Like you wanna neck me or something!" She answered and narrowed her eyes on us.

By now, the others already stopped dancing and goofing around to look and watch the scene. I looked back at Keran to see that she's still fidgeting around in unease. I crossed my arms in amusement as I stared at her.

"Correct!" I spoke up, making her eyes go wide.
"What?!" She shrieked.

"Don't worry, Ranran. They're just messing with you. It's only a joke." Lin Fan said as she approached a now standing Keran. She shook her head at us, probably figuring out that we're just truly messing around.

"...or is it?" Yu Yan and I chorused and I gave Keran a smirk.

Lin Fan facepalmed at that while Keran seems to fall for the trick as her eyes widened in what I can only assume as horror. Some of the others are laughing while some couldn't be bothered to care. Before Keran could say anything, someone already spoke.
