After the real daughter was reborn, the girl who traveled through the book was cannon fodder

Chapter 123 You are the third one

Ever since Lou Jiyun received Su Banxia's invitation, he has been waiting for her news with great anticipation, checking his phone from time to time, for fear of missing any of her movements.

But no matter how long I waited, the phone remained silent and there was no sound.

He couldn't help but frown, and a hint of doubt flashed in his deep eyes. He even suspected for a moment whether this girl was deliberately deceiving him.

As for Su Banxia, ​​she has been very busy recently.

The new semester was about to begin. Although she occasionally made jokes in the student union, the pre-school period was already a busy time, not to mention the welcome party to prepare. Naturally, she was called in to help out. Every day, she was surrounded by various things, busy and dizzy, her head like a mess, and she had no time to think about having dinner with Lou Jiyun.

It was not until that day that her second sister-in-law Qu Qingdai reminded her that she was planning to have a family dinner before she started school that she suddenly slapped her head and remembered that she still owed Lou Jiyun a meal.

She thought about it and decided that it would be better to do it today than to wait for another day. It happened that day was Saturday. Thinking that Lou Jiyun was usually busy with work and should be at home resting with nothing to do on weekends, she hurriedly called him.

After the call was connected, Lou Jiyun's voice came from the receiver: "I'm at the swimming pool opened by Kong Qing. I'll pick you up later."

He didn't know that Su Banxia would ask him out today, so as usual, he took advantage of the day off to relax at the swimming pool.

"Don't come to pick me up. I'll go find you. There's a bus that goes directly from here, so it's quite convenient." Su Banxia said hurriedly. She thought to herself, after all, she was treating everyone to dinner, so she didn't feel comfortable bothering others to come and pick her up from so far away. When she said this, her face was full of sincerity, and her fingers were unconsciously tugging at the corner of her clothes, looking very embarrassed.

Lou Jiyun wanted to say something more, but there was a busy tone on the other end of the phone. Su Banxia had already hung up the phone.

He shook his head helplessly, then sent her a message, reminding her to be careful and call him when she arrived. After sending the message, he stared at the phone screen for a long time, as if he could see Su Banxia coming through the screen.

Inside the swimming pool, sunlight shines through the huge glass dome, reflecting ripples on the water.

When Su Banxia arrived, it was around three in the afternoon. The warm winter sun was shining, adding a bit of warmth to this slightly cold place.

She had never been here before. She only knew that the swimming pool was located on the edge of the gymnasium. It was said to be a dedicated training ground for a professional swimming team. It was rarely open to the public on weekdays, so there were few pedestrians around and it was extremely quiet.

It is the cold winter and there are few people willing to go out for fun, let alone choose winter swimming, an activity that tests one's perseverance. The area outside the swimming pool looks particularly deserted.

Only a small beverage shop selling hot drinks was still steaming, like a bit of life in this cold place.

Su Banxia walked over quickly and bought a cup of hot coconut milk drink. Thinking that Lou Jiyun might also need it, she considerately brought him another cup. Then, holding the hot drink tightly in both hands, she walked towards the swimming pool.

Although this place is not open to the public and there is no one guarding the door, Su Banxia walked straight in without any hindrance and no one stepped forward to stop him.

As she walked, she looked around curiously, secretly marveling at the spaciousness and cleanliness of the swimming pool.

Following the signs on the wall, she walked briskly and soon found the area where the swimming pool was located.

Looking around, there were several people swimming in the swimming pool, and there were also a few people standing sparsely by the pool, including a coach and two lifeguards with focused expressions.

However, for some strange feeling, she recognized Lou Jiyu among so many figures at a glance.

Lou Jiyun seemed like an elf born for water, with a strong and slender figure that was particularly eye-catching in the water.

He had shed his usual clothes and was now wearing simple swimming trunks. After entering the pool, his perfect body lines were fully exposed. Every movement he made was professional and smooth, like an elegant water bird dancing on the water.

When his body sank into the water, although the lines of his muscles were not clear due to the rippling water, the vague outline inexplicably made Su Banxia's cheeks slightly hot. Her eyes involuntarily followed Lou Jiyun's figure, and she was a little dazed for a moment.

"Alas, this place is closed to the public..." Suddenly, a voice came from the side, interrupting her thoughts. Su Banxia finally came to her senses and turned around in a panic. She saw a staff member walking towards her, with a hint of doubt and alert in his eyes.

"I'm looking for someone." Su Banxia quickly stretched out her finger and pointed at Lou Jiyun who was swimming in the swimming pool. She showed an awkward smile on her face, trying to show that she was not trespassing here without permission.

When the man heard Su Banxia's words, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, which made Su Banxia's heart skip a beat. She thought that the man didn't believe what she said.

However, unexpectedly, the man suddenly raised his voice without any warning and shouted: "Professor Lou, there is a beautiful girl looking for you!" The voice was like a thunder, quickly echoing in the slightly empty swimming pool.

This sudden shout instantly made Su Banxia the focus of the entire audience.

She felt a sudden rush of heat spread across her face, and she felt so embarrassed that her cheeks turned red, like ripe apples. She instinctively lowered her head, her hands tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, and her eyes darted around in panic, not daring to meet the gazes of those around her. She kept muttering to herself, "This is so embarrassing!"

At this moment, Lou Jiyun, who was swimming in the swimming pool, heard the shouting and quickly changed direction like an agile otter and swam towards the shore where Su Banxia was.

As he approached the pool's edge, he suddenly thrust his hands forward, his entire body bursting forth from the water. His movements were clean, smooth, and effortless. Strings of translucent water droplets cascaded down the lines of his taut, elastic body, seemingly outlining a natural, aesthetically pleasing muscular contour. The lines were not exaggerated, but perfectly displayed a perfect fusion of strength and beauty, emanating an irresistible charm.

Lou Jiyu raised his hand and gently pulled off the swimming cap on his head. He shook his head slightly, and a few strands of wet hair fluttered in the air, adding a bit of casualness and unruliness.

Then, he grabbed a towel from the side and wiped his body simply and casually. His movements were natural and smooth, without any signs of deliberateness.

Then, he walked barefoot on the wet ground, step by step steadily towards Su Banxia. Every step seemed to carry an invisible aura that made people unable to look away.

Su Banxia stood there, her heartbeat accelerating uncontrollably, like a falcon's fluttering. She had always known that Lou Jiyun was a striking figure, with deep, three-dimensional features and an innate coolness between his eyebrows that was unforgettable.

But she never expected that he, who usually wrapped himself in clothes, would now show a different kind of charm after taking off his clothes. This charm came not only from his almost perfect figure, but also from the confidence and composure inadvertently revealed in his every move.

Long-term swimming has made his muscles tight and smooth, his body proportions perfect, he is tall, with long limbs, and he looks like a sculpture from ancient Greek mythology.

Especially at the moment when he just came out of the water, with crystal water droplets still hanging on his body, gleaming in the sunlight. The temperament that originally made people feel cold and unapproachable seemed to be shrouded in a layer of hazy mist, adding a bit of mystery and seductive atmosphere, making Su Banxia feel that he was so handsome that he was sexy and seductive. This feeling made her feel both novel and a little overwhelmed.

It wasn't until Lou Jiyun was almost in front of her that Su Banxia suddenly came to her senses. She looked away slightly, her eyes wandering. Her breathing became rapid. To mask her nervousness, she feigned composure and cleared her throat, but her slightly trembling hands betrayed the turmoil in her heart.

Lou Jiyun walked towards Su Banxia with steady steps and soon stood in front of her.

There was a certain height difference between the two of them. He bent down slightly, and his upright figure tilted slightly. Although his eyes were not completely level with Su Banxia's, it created a different kind of closeness, as if they had a tacit understanding that belonged only to each other.

"I'm coming." He said in a low and mellow voice. His voice seemed even gentler than usual, like a spring breeze that gently brushed past Su Banxia's ears, causing slight ripples in her heart.

Su Banxia only felt a burning sensation at the base of her ears, and the heat quickly spread, causing her cheeks to turn lightly red.

She raised her head shyly, her eyes met Lou Jiyun's, and then nodded slightly. She looked well-behaved and cute, like a docile little rabbit.

"You want to sit on a chair over there for a while? I'm going to take a shower and be right back." Lou Jiyun looked at her with a hint of concern in his eyes and suggested softly.

As he spoke, he gestured towards the rest area not far away, where there were several rows of comfortable chairs.

"Yeah." Su Banxia nodded again in response, her voice very soft, with a barely perceptible hint of nervousness.

After Lou Jiyun turned around and left, she walked towards the chair beside her like an obedient child, then slowly sat down and waited quietly.

The man who had just called out to Lou Jiyun came up to her with a curious look on his face, his eyes gleaming with gossip, and asked impatiently, "What is your relationship with Professor Lou?"

"Huh?" Su Banxia raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of doubt in her eyes. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering uncertainly, "They're brother and sister, right? Or maybe he's my teacher at the same school."

As she spoke, she unconsciously twirled a strand of her hair with her fingers, feeling a little confused. It seemed that neither of these two relationships could fully summarize the complex and subtle connection between them.

"Just brother and sister? Teacher and student? Nothing else..." The man seemed dissatisfied with the answer and kept asking, staring at Su Banxia without blinking, as if he wanted to dig out more secrets from her face.

"What else could it be?" Su Banxia was somewhat helpless at the question. She frowned, a hint of confusion in her eyes, and secretly wondered in her heart, could there be some other relationship between them? But she couldn't think of a more appropriate explanation for the moment.

"Apart from his relatives and friends, you are the first person of the opposite sex he is willing to let come to him." The man said in a low voice with a mysterious tone, his tone full of surprise and emotion, as if this was a very big deal.

"The first?" Su Banxia's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She knew that "first" often meant being different, special. Who wouldn't want to be that special someone in someone else's heart? Su Banxia was no exception.

She lowered her head slightly, the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised, revealing a faint smile, and her heart seemed to be gently touched by something soft and warm.

Afterwards, she continued to chat with this person enthusiastically about Lou Jiyun, sharing every little thing about him, with a different kind of brilliance shining in her eyes.

Su Banxia was so engrossed in chatting with that person that she didn't notice that Lou Jiyun had already come out of the shower.

"What are you talking about?" A low and familiar voice came from above. The voice was like an order, instantly attracting Su Banxia's attention.

She subconsciously turned her head and saw that Lou Jiyu had been standing behind her without her noticing. His figure was as straight as a pine tree. His tall figure seemed to be shrouded in a faint halo under the sunlight.

What was unusual was that he wasn't wearing his usual formal coat today, but a casual jacket. The simple design accentuated his physique, making it look even more robust and upright. His outfit shed his usual elite aura, instead lending it a more rugged and unrestrained feel. He resembled an uninhibited knight stalking the city, exuding a unique charm that caught the eye.

"No, nothing, Professor Lou, I'm leaving first." The man who was chatting with Su Banxia just now, when he heard Lou Jiyu's voice, a trace of panic flashed across his face, and it was obvious that he was quite afraid of Lou Jiyu.

Before he finished speaking, he sprinted like a frightened rabbit, and rushed into the swimming pool with a "splash", splashing a large amount of water. His embarrassed and anxious appearance made people laugh.

Su Banxia probably didn't expect him to run so fast. She was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help but burst out laughing. The laughter was crisp and pleasant, and it echoed softly in the swimming pool.

Lou Jiyun had naturally walked to the seat beside her. It was a double chair. After he sat down, the distance between them was inevitably very close, so close that Su Banxia could even clearly feel the faint refreshing scent after showering coming from him. This made her heart beat faster involuntarily, and the smile on her face became a little restrained. Her hands unconsciously rested on her knees, slightly twisting the corners of her clothes, and her eyes became a little evasive, not knowing where to look.
