Chapter 645: Chapter 614 Malice, Push Hard_1

Wang Bing had thought that He Tiantian would stay at home to take care of the kids and wouldn’t come to watch the game, so she had figured out how to get close to Huo Yingjie today.

Ever since she had laid her cards on the table with her parents, Wang Bing had been keeping an eye on Huo Yingjie, looking for opportunities to approach him. However, Huo Yingjie was a very strange person; apart from attending classes, he rarely participated in extracurricular activities. It was with great difficulty that she learned he was playing in a basketball game, so she went to watch every game, indeed finding chances to get close to him.

After all, she was the school medical staff, and her reasons were very sound. Students are prone to injuries during games, and it was best for her to be on the sidelines, ready to provide immediate treatment if someone got hurt.

The school had commended Wang Bing for her attention to detail.

However, today He Tiantian came, and some of Wang Bing’s actions could no longer be carried out.

During halftime, Huo Yingjie walked over to He Tiantian.

He Tiantian quickly took out a towel and said, "Brother Yingjie, wipe your sweat first."

While Huo Yingjie was wiping his sweat, He Tiantian took out a thermos, poured some hot water into the lid, and said, "Drink some warm water!"

"Okay!" Huo Yingjie handed the towel back to He Tiantian and then took the warm water, drinking two cups in a row.

Seeing Dad drinking, the two little ones also got restless, but it wasn’t time for the kids to have their formula yet, and besides, it was cold outside, not suitable for feeding them.

"In the second half, go for it," He Tiantian said. "I might watch for a bit longer, then I’ll take the kids to the restroom to change their diapers. By the way, I’ll wait for you over by that lawn later."

Although they were wearing diapers, in winter they needed to be changed frequently, otherwise, they could get cold.

"Okay!" Huo Yingjie smiled, "You’re the one who has it tough."

In the second half of the game, Huo Yingjie’s performance was very impressive. Although the Chemistry Department only led the Physics Department by five points, they consistently stayed ahead. With Brother Yingjie present, He Tiantian believed that the Chemistry Department would surely win the basketball championship in the end.

He Tiantian looked at her watch; there were twenty minutes left until the end, so she started packing up her things, preparing to leave with the stroller.

Wu Youliang, who was not far from He Tiantian, asked, "Sister-in-law, why aren’t you watching anymore?"

"I’m not watching anymore, it’s a bit cold, and I’m taking the kids out for a bit," He Tiantian said with a smile, not wanting to say that she was going to change the kids’ diapers.

Everyone stepped aside when they saw He Tiantian pushing the stroller.

Especially after seeing He Tiantian’s and the kids’ attire, and the exquisite baby bed, which were uncommon, they all guessed whose family they belonged to.

But more people, having seen Huo Yingjie’s affectionate interaction with He Tiantian just before, guessed that she must be Huo Yingjie’s wife.

He Tiantian checked and, as expected, both children had wet themselves.

He Tiantian rubbed her hands together, warming them up a bit before changing the children’s diapers.

He Tiantian threw the two used diapers into the trash bin and pushed the stroller toward the edge of the nearby lawn by the small lake.

This patch of water was live water brought in from Xuanwu Lake and was very clean.

He Tiantian didn’t dare let the children out of her sight; she parked the stroller on a flat area before going down to wash her hands.

When He Tiantian’s hands touched the water, they did not feel the piercing chill she expected, but rather, it was very warm and comfortable.

This place was certainly no hot spring; it was illogical!

He Tiantian got distracted and began to seriously wash her two fair hands.

Wang Bing had been following He Tiantian ever since she left the game.

Seeing He Tiantian squatting on the ground washing her hands, Wang Bing quietly approached her and reached out to push the stroller.

Wu Youliang ran over and grabbed the stroller, reprimanding, "Doctor Wang, what are you doing?"

Wang Bing was startled and quickly withdrew her hand, saying vigilantly, "The lake is just nearby, and I was worried that the stroller wasn’t parked securely, so I wanted to help steady it."

Wu Youliang was somewhat skeptical; he had distinctly felt a force, not pulling back but pushing forward!

However, it all happened in a flash, and Wu Youliang couldn’t be certain.

Adhering to the principle that less trouble is better than more, he didn’t continue to inquire.

He Tiantian had already turned around at the sound of Wu Youliang’s voice, hurried over, and clutched the stroller tightly with both hands, warily watching Wang Bing.

"You’re Huo Yingjie’s girlfriend, aren’t you?" Wang Bing asked with a smile, "You can’t be so careless with the kids in the future. If the stroller hadn’t been secured and had slid into the water, the kids would suffer in this cold weather."

He Tiantian narrowed her eyes; she could feel the malice behind Wang Bing’s feigned smile. Although she hadn’t caught her in the act, He Tiantian certainly didn’t believe Wang Bing had good intentions.

She suspected the worst of Wang Bing’s actions, that she was trying to push the stroller, not pull it.

"Thanks for the reminder; I was careless just now," He Tiantian replied with a smile, playing along—who didn’t know how to put on an act!

Everyone has many faces, and even if He Tiantian didn’t have many faces, she was adept at feigning sincerity, her smile concealing her true feelings.

"No need to thank me," Wang Bing said, "Just be more careful next time."

After Wang Bing finished speaking, she turned and walked away.

Wang Bing cursed silently, Wu Youliang was meddling; there had been no one around just then, and even if she had pushed the stroller into He Tiantian, causing a collision with mother and children that ended up in the water, nobody would have noticed.

What a great opportunity ruined by Wu Youliang.

He Tiantian broke out in a cold sweat on her back, silently chastising herself. Not washing her hands once wouldn’t kill anyone; she must never leave the children’s side again.

"Thank you, Wu Youliang," He Tiantian said with a smile. "By the way, why did you come over?"

"During the break in the sets, Brother Yingjie asked me to come and check on you," Wu Youliang explained with a smile, "It’s a good thing nothing happened. Be careful, I’ll head back over."

"Okay, got it," He Tiantian said with a smile. "I’m heading over to the lawn to bask in the sun now."

"Alright then, be careful," Wu Youliang said, and then he returned to the competition venue. There were many follow-up tasks to attend to, and as the head of the class, he couldn’t leave.

He Tiantian took the children to the lawn, took out a large cotton cloth from her bag, spread it on the grass, set down some toys, lifted the children out of the stroller, and let them sit on the cloth to play.

Meanwhile, Huo Yingjie had felt uneasy since He Tiantian left. But he was in the middle of a competition and didn’t have the time to worry, so he had asked Wu Youliang to go and help watch over them.

Luckily Wu Youliang had come over, otherwise He Tiantian and the two babies would have been in trouble.

The competition concluded, and the chemistry department triumphantly took the championship.

The prize for every member of the championship team was a towel and two boxes of toothpaste.

Huo Yingjie wiped off his sweat, put on his clothes, and was ready to go.

"Huo Yingjie, are you coming to the cafeteria to celebrate with us?" Wu Youliang asked, "It’s almost lunchtime, why don’t you bring your wife along too?"

Thinking it over, Huo Yingjie realized he wouldn’t make it back in time for lunch and nodded, "Sure! I’ll go get my wife and kids, see you at the cafeteria soon."

"Alright, we’ll head over first," Wu Youliang said with a smile, calling everyone to the cafeteria.
