When Bright Moon Encounter the Dark Clouds

Chapter 12: Tan Jiao 03 (1)

Tan Jiao

I never thought I would meet Wu Yu again so soon. Is fate like silk threads? Once they become entangled, they will always be entangled.

A cool breeze blew in the afternoon; clouds covered the sun while leaving the blue sky clear. The blue background appeared like a boundless existence quietly overlooking everything.

I went to the library in the Shixi district to borrow books. As an author, I naturally read plenty of books. I stayed in the library for a great deal of time; in fact, I was there more frequently than during my school days. I was a mediocre student back then and never thought that I would fall in love with reading again because of my hobbies and dreams.

I came down the steps of the library with ten books in my arms. At the side were several basketball courts and a mini football field; in fact, this was a public sports center in this neighborhood. A few topless men were playing football. I walked past the court without paying any attention to it. Right then, a man ran past me with a ball in his hand and yelled out, "Ah? Youre Miss Miss Tan!

I felt a sense of familiarity, so I turned to look. Isnt that Xiaohua, the guy from the auto-repair shop yesterday who persuaded me to sign up for a carwash plan? My heart fluttered momentarily for no reason as I looked past Xiaohua to see Wu Yu standing there, looking toward me. He was not far away with his arms akimbo, drenched in sweat.

His figure seemed a little blurry under the sun, but his abs were evidently exposed.

I had only one word to describe my sensesadmiration.

Even if a man like him is just a repairman, wont many women throw themselves into his arms and sleep with him? This fleeting, evil thought sprung into my mind. In my experience, most handsome men that seemed classy were actually good at flirting with women. Is he like that too?

I purposefully restrained myself and greeted Xiaohua, You guys came to play football?

Xiaohua replied, Yeah, were having our day off. Brother Yu brought us here; he likes sports and even found this place. After saying that, he turned to Wu Yu and waved. Brother Yu! Brother Yu!

Wu Yu stood there without moving and did not seem interested in greeting me. Xiao Hua shrugged and smiled at me. Later! I nodded and went on my way.

I am not sure if it was a coincidence or if someone did it on purpose, but as I was about to walk away from the football court, I suddenly felt something behind me. Then, I heard the shouts from Wu Yu and the other guys.

Tan Jiao!

Hey!

Be careful!

I turned my head and saw a ball flying toward me. Even though it seemed quick, I did not think the force was too much for me to handle. Initially, I had the chance to dodge the ball. After all, I played football with my friends several times when I was a child. I am not sure what I was thinking, but I took a step back and subconsciously tried to stop the ball with my leg.

I forgot I was wearing high heels and a skirt; I also underestimated the weight of the books in my hand. Moreover, the ball that did not seem that fast still hurt a lot when it hit my leg; that guy must have kicked the ball quite forcefully. I gasped and fell to the ground while the books scattered on the ground. Crucially, the ball that I failed to stop hit the steps behind me and bounced back at me, hitting my head precisely with a thud. I was unable to hold back, letting out an Ouch! and holding onto my head.

The guys ran over and laughed heartlessly. I ended up in a sorry state, but I also felt it was a funny situation. I felt the pain in my knee and saw blood when I looked down. I tried to stand up on my feet, but a hand appeared in front of me.

The rough and long-fingered hand of a repairman.

I looked up and saw Wu Yus calm eyes below his sweat-drenched short hair.
