No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 315

Suddenly, voices were heard outside, and the two quickly pulled apart.

Noelle quickly scrambled up. "I... I'm going to change clothes."

Cedric sat up, watching her flee in panic. He lay back down, his heart still racing; it almost felt like it would jump out of his chest.

Turning his head, he noticed the sunset outside—it was indeed beautiful. However, it was not as beautiful as her.

Noelle returned to the changing room. She sat in the chair, covering her face, taking a long time to calm down. Had her heartbeat been that loud? Had he heard it?

Noelle rubbed her face and went to take a shower, feeling sore all over. After changing, she came out. Her hair was dry and draped over her shoulders, which made her feel quiet and calm.

She instinctively glanced around but didn't see Cedric. Had he already left? She took out her phone and was about to send a message when she hesitated.

"Are you not planning to leave?"

He stood at the front, now dressed in fresh clothes, his damp hair still dripping slightly.

Noelle put down her phone and walked over. The two slowly walked outside, carrying the same gym shower gel scent. The sun had gotten lower, and the surroundings were noticeably darker.

When they reached downstairs, she stopped. "I'm going back to the school dorm."

"Mm... Make sure to apply something to your arms. You can't train at high intensity daily, or you'll hurt yourself." Cedric said, his voice was low and serious.

Noelle lowered her gaze, her eyes resting on his chest. "I know my own body."

"You're training so hard. Those who didn't know better would think you were heading to the battlefield, trying to save your life."

"Noelle, your package."

Noelle got up and saw Grace handing her a parcel. "I didn't order anything."

"But it's addressed to you. You should take a look."

Noelle opened it and found a box of ointment and a book on boxing techniques titled "How to Train in Boxing Without Getting Hurt."

Upon seeing this, she guessed who it was from. She took a photo and sent it to Cedric. "Did you send this?"

"It's very effective." His response was brief and to the point.
