Duanmu Ji indeed stopped bothering her.

However, Hua Yinyin's voice rang out again.

Chapter Ninety-Four: The Swimming Pool After School

With the arrival of summer, swimming lessons at Yukong High School have begun again.

Of course, these things are no longer relevant to students in their junior and senior years of high school.

Logically speaking, it's no longer possible to enjoy any special coolness in this school without air conditioning.

However, on Thursday, Li Wanyan told Mo Xueyao that after school on Friday, she could bring a few classmates to play in the pool for a while.

The specific time is roughly before 6:30 PM.

Generally speaking, swimming pools are closed after school.

Even if it's 80% open, you still won't be able to swim because the staff will start cleaning the pool and drain all the water.

But if school ends early on Friday, there might be a sliver of a chance.

The real reason was that Li Wanyan had helped the PE teacher organize documents for an entire afternoon and received this small 'reward' in return.

He probably just used his position as a teacher to do something convenient.

If it were just Li Wanyan herself, she definitely wouldn't be very interested.

But he said she could bring a few friends in with her, so she accepted the reward.

This good news was then relayed from Mo Xueyao to several other friends.

The members of the Snow Music Band naturally all knew about it.

However, the two Mo sisters will go back to help out at Duanmu Bi's burger shop on Friday—not to earn money, but simply as a way to express their gratitude.

After all, Duanmu Bi usually took good care of them, often having her younger brother bring them fruit or semi-finished fried chicken.

It added a touch of romance to their lives, which were still barely enough to make ends meet even with the help of kind-hearted people.

Wang Jiale is going to the countryside for the weekend, so she needs to leave this afternoon to save some time.

Hua Yinyin was, of course, the one who most wanted to come.

I agreed on Thursday.

She got a fever today and didn't come to school at all...

In the end, only Yu Shu and Mr. Xue from the Snow Music Band will come.

Other classmates, Leng Feng, Ye Banxia, ​​and Cha Li, will also come. They originally planned to invite Lu Chengyuan, but she was going to see a movie with Lü Bolun in the afternoon.

These two, who seemed like they would never be together at first, have recently started to stick together more and more.

Don't you get tired of it?

"Hey, is Xiaoxue the only boy?" Ye Banxia asked softly as she flipped Hua Yinyin's chair onto the desk in the clean classroom.

"There's one more! Xiao Xi!" Mo Xueyao immediately reached out and patted Huang Yuxi's head. "Xiao Xi is here to swim too!"

Whether it's Huang Yuxi or Mr. Xue, their personalities may be different, but to girls, they are both completely harmless guys.

He decided to kill some time at the swimming pool because his brother wouldn't be able to pick him up until four or five o'clock on Fridays.

Previous Fridays were spent either doing homework or watching people play ball on the playground.

The teaching building was quiet, but the playground was still quite lively.

There were far more students staying to play sports on Fridays than usual; whether it was basketball, badminton, or table tennis, there were always people playing.

Even in soccer, there are a few students who don't follow the rules and just kick the ball around randomly.

It doesn't matter whether we score or not.

There was no ulterior motive; it was simply a pure enjoyment of playing around with friends.

"Did everyone bring their swimsuits?!" Mo Xueyao asked loudly from the podium. "Those who didn't bring them, hurry up and check the convenience store by the entrance to see if they have any!"

The convenience store at the school gate is a magical place; you can buy almost anything you need on campus.

Although you can't buy school uniforms, you can buy swimsuits that are the same style as those in school.

"I brought it."

"Yes, I brought it."

"Let's go to the swimming pool!"

"Wait, where's Wanyan?"

"The class monitor said she went to get the keys and will wait for us at the entrance of the swimming pool later."

"Alright—then let's go!"

I'll leave my schoolbag in the classroom for now; the door won't be locked until I leave.

Perhaps because the atmosphere at Yukong High School was so harmonious, no one was worried at all that their schoolbags would be stolen.

Besides, there weren't any valuables inside. Anyone who had a cell phone was holding it in their hand right now.

Just put it in the locker in the changing room later.

The entrance to the swimming pool was deserted, with only Li Wanyan standing there.

Upon seeing Mo Xueyao and the others arrive, she pushed open the tightly locked glass door and led everyone inside.

Except for the two boys who went to the right, everyone else went to the left.

"It feels like it's been so long since I've been to the school swimming pool, I miss it so much..." Ye Banxia couldn't help but whisper as she walked into the familiar yet unfamiliar changing room.

"I feel like I haven't swum in ages, I've probably forgotten everything." Cha Li chose a cabinet in the middle, stood in front of it, and lifted up the hem of her clothes.

"The procedure is to shower first, then change into your swimsuit, and then shower again after swimming." Leng Feng was quite familiar with this process.

As for why you have to shower before entering, it's probably to avoid making the swimming pool too dirty.

Most of the swimsuits people brought were from last year, and each one still had their name sewn on it.

"Hey, Xiaoyao, you took the wrong swimsuit. The words written on it are... Li Wanyan."

"Huh? Oh right, what about Wanyan?"

Li Wanyan unfolded her swimsuit, which she was about to put in the closet.

The words "Li Wanyan" were still written on it.

Ye Banxia looked around several times before confirming that she hadn't misread it: "Both sets I brought are for the class monitor."

"Well, whatever, it's not like I can't wear it anyway." Mo Xueyao stuffed the swimsuit into the closet with an indifferent expression, locked the closet door, and put the rubber band with the key on her wrist.

"Xiaoyao has a mole on her chest, you know?" Leng Feng casually put his arm around her shoulder, acting like they were best buddies.

“I have quite a few moles on my body.” Mo Xueyao hardly felt embarrassed. She lowered her head and continued chatting with the other person, “Look, one here on my collarbone, one here, one on my arm, and one on my ankle. Luckily, they are all small.”

Walking beside Leng Feng, Ye Banxia tilted her head enviously and said, "Leng Feng has such a well-proportioned figure, just like a model."

"It's from training."

"And abs?" Cha Li glanced at them, seemingly joining in the fun.

"It's not abs, it's a six-pack!"

"Yu Shu—!" Mo Xueyao walked into the shower room and called back, "Aren't you coming to shower?"

"Um...you guys go first..." Yu Shu stood in the corner, blushing slightly, making people seriously wonder how she even attended swimming classes in her first year of high school.

Does she always wait until everyone else leaves before she goes to shower and change?

After showering and changing into their swimsuits, everyone left the changing room. A while later, Yu Shu finally arrived late.

Mr. Xue and Huang Yuxi were already playing in the swimming pool.

The two were playing water volleyball across the center line.

Mr. Xue would deliberately hit the ball to a place where Huang Yuxi could catch it, making the latter look like she had superb skills, and thus she had a lot of fun.

Mo Xueyao inexplicably felt that this scene was like an owner teasing their own dog...

"Wow—we've got the whole place to ourselves!" Leng Feng jumped into the deep water with a 'plop,' splashing water all over Mo Xueyao's head and head.

But it doesn't matter, since we'll get wet anyway.

"Be careful, don't let anything happen." Li Wanyan looked at Mr. Xue, and before she could speak, he nodded gently.

After all, the most reliable person here is Mr. Xue. Having him keep an eye on things is to prevent anyone from drowning in the swimming pool.

Don't say that such a thing is impossible. Someone like Huang Yuxi could very well drown if she went into deep water.

"Xiaoyao, let's play water volleyball together!" Lengfeng immediately called out, running over to Mr. Xue without waiting.

There are only so many people in total, so if we're playing games, everyone has to participate.

"Ah—I just want to soak in the water and do nothing..." Mo Xueyao lazily squinted her eyes, the summer heat quickly dissipating in the cool water.

"It's a rare treat to come to the swimming pool, so we definitely have to do something! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of the trip? Just like we definitely have to go out and have fun on holidays!"

"I think staying home during holidays is the best way to relax..."

Despite saying this, Mo Xueyao was still forcibly dragged over by Leng Feng.

There were eight people in total, which were divided into two groups.

The shorter players stayed in the shallow end, while the slightly taller ones went to the deep end; a 'volleyball battle' was about to begin.

"Catch!" Leng Feng, standing in the deep water, served first. The spinning water volleyball slammed into Li Wanyan's head with a 'thud,' and the surrounding air seemed to freeze for a moment.

However, Li Wanyan did not stop. She picked up the ball floating on the water and slapped it back.

The atmosphere immediately became lively again.
