351 Stalling For Time
Jiang Tong followed Lin Huanhuan, who was carrying a bag and a skateboard. Lin Muyu sent the two of them to the door before closing it.
When they took the elevator down, Lin Huanhuan looked up at Jiang Tong and asked, “Teacher Jiang Tong, have you skateboarded before?” She was 1.5 meters tall and was much shorter than Jiang Tong.
“I have,” Jiang Tong looked at Lin Huanhuan and said with a smile. Jiang Tong had skateboarded before, but that was in the 500-year cycle. Skateboarding was the ancestor of extreme sports. Jiang Tong played and practiced all kinds of sports.
“Teacher, you’ve done it before? Really?” Lin Huanhuan asked again. She was the one who asked first, but she didn’t believe Jiang Tong when she said that she had skateboarded before. Because she was just asking casually, she tried to find a topic to chat about with Jiang Tong and lower her guard.
“Why would I lie to you?” Jiang Tong smiled.
“Then, Teacher, are you good at it?” Lin Huanhuan continued to ask.
“I’m okay at it,” Jiang Tong said casually. The two of them chatted as they went downstairs. Soon, they were out of the estate. “It’s over there,” Lin Huanhuan pointed in that direction and the two of them walked along the sidewalk toward the east. It was really close. After walking for about 100 meters, they reached an intersection. They crossed the road and entered the park. Lin Huanhuan took a shortcut along the park’s small road and went in.
A few minutes later, Lin Huanhuan and Jiang Tong arrived at a separate area on the south side of the park – the extreme sports field. The park was very large, so there were many areas planned for it. There was a large square, a fountain, a basketball court, a badminton court, an artificial lake, a small bridge, and a convenient fitness area. It was not four o’clock in the afternoon, so there were not many people in the park. However, there were very few people in the extreme sports field, as not many people played this kind of thing.
When Lin Huanhuan and Jiang Tong arrived, there were only a dozen people playing in the entire venue. It was estimated that there would be more people later.
“Huanhuan, you’re here!”
“Huanhuan!”
As soon as Lin Huanhuan appeared, some people greeted her. They were all teenagers, and the older one was about 16 or 17 years old. They all seemed to be very familiar with Lin Huanhuan. Lin Huanhuan waved at them.
“Teacher, you take a look first. I’ll go over there and put on my protective gear,” Lin Huanhuan informed Jiang Tong and quickly walked to the stairs at the side of the small square. Lin Huanhuan walked over and sat on the steps to put on her protective gear.
“Huanhuan, is that her? She’s quite good-looking.” A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, who had dyed her hair blonde and even put on makeup, stepped on a skateboard to the front of the steps and sat beside Lin Huanhuan. She tilted her head and asked in a low voice, her eyes constantly sizing up Jiang Tong.
Jiang Tong had already noticed this girl when she first arrived. She was Tang Shan, seventeen years old, a rich second-generation heiress. She was beautiful, but her grades were average. She was famous for being the ‘big sister’ in the surrounding schools. Everyone in the school knew that Tang Shan was Lin Huanhuan’s ‘big sister’. In fact, Lin Huanhuan and Tang Shan had no familial relationship. However, Lin Huanhuan was under Tang Shan’s protection in school, so no one dared to mess with Lin Huanhuan in school. The reason why Tang Shan was so powerful in school had a lot to do with her boyfriend. Although her boyfriend had already graduated from high school and was about to enter university, the name ‘Brother Datong’ was known by all the schools and people in society.
“Yes, that’s her,” Lin Huanhuan whispered to Tang Shan, then asked, “Sister Shanshan, is Brother Datong here?”
“Yeah, he’s here. I’ve told him about it. He was throwing a tantrum when he heard that someone dared to bully our Huanhuan. He’ll be bringing people over shortly,” Tang Shan said in a low voice. The two of them chatted quietly for a while. After Lin Huanhuan put on her protective gear, she skated to Jiang Tong’s side and smiled. She asked, “Teacher, do you want to try it first?” As she spoke, she slid the skateboard to Jiang Tong’s feet, but Jiang Tong shook her head.
“Teacher, don’t you know how to skateboard? Or were you just bragging to me?” Lin Huanhuan asked teasingly.
“You can go ahead and play. It’s inconvenient for me to skateboard in the clothes I’m wearing right now. I’ll just watch you play,” Jiang Tong said with a smile.
“Then I’ll go ahead.” Lin Huanhuan didn’t pester her any further and slipped away. For the next ten minutes, Lin Huanhuan didn’t try anything difficult. She just skated around the small square and practiced some basic movements. From time to time, she would slide to Jiang Tong’s side and show her some skills. In fact, she was afraid that Jiang Tong would suddenly leave, so she kept an eye on Jiang Tong and tried to stall for time.
