Chapter 110 Watching the game is worse than playing it

Due to a schedule change, Wednesday morning’s fourth period PE class was moved to Thursday.

The PE teacher hadn’t arrived yet, and PE committee member Liu Yang was also playing basketball, with no mind to organize the team. The students from Olympiad Class 3 were loitering on the field.

Yao Beibei and Zhang Ningzhi stood hand-in-hand in the distance, watching the boys huddled together on the basketball court.

The yellow-skinned woman couldn’t help but feel embarrassed, pointing and saying,

“Our class’s boys always use playing basketball as an excuse to hug each other. Do they think others can’t tell? They’re a bunch of complete gays!”

Zhang Ningzhi didn’t know how to respond. Her gaze had been following a particular figure. The moment the basketball left his hands, her heart felt as if it was squeezed.

When it went through the hoop, she inexplicably felt a surge of joy.

“Ah? Beibei, what did you say?”

“I said our class’s boys—never mind, you’re acting strange.” Yao Beibei suddenly pressed her face close, rubbing against Zhang Ningzhi’s cheek, and interrogated her with narrowed eyes.

“Why are you always looking at Jiang Nian? What’s there to see in a scoundrel like him?”

“Ah? I—” Zhang Ningzhi immediately panicked, her heart like a green field with wind blowing through her chest, “I… I wasn’t looking, I was watching them play basketball.”

As her confidence wavered, that bright figure on the field seemed to blur along with it.

“Stop pretending. I just have a feeling something’s off between you two.” Yao Beibei continued to grill her newly befriended confidante, “No, to be precise, only you are acting strange.”

“What’s so good about that guy? He’s vulgar and loves to tell bride price Hell jokes.”

“He does look good, and his physique isn’t bad. I just wonder if he has abs. How about, Zhizhi, you go and lift his shirt to take a peek?”

“No!” Zhang Ningzhi instinctively recoiled, her face slightly flushed, “Beibei, don’t talk nonsense.”

“Okay, I won’t talk nonsense.” Yao Beibei turned her head and saw the PE teacher already calling people from the other end of the field. Liu Yang ran over like a wild dog.

The whistle blew sharply, indicating it was time to gather.

In front of a row of concrete ping-pong tables, green trees swayed uniformly in the sunlight. Students from several classes were already running laps, bustling like a painting.

She turned to Zhang Ningzhi and said seriously,

“But, Zhizhi, please don’t fall in love during senior year, okay? I consider both you and Jiang Nian my friends, so I hope you can wait until next summer to date.”

“Beibei, it’s really not what you think.” Zhang Ningzhi’s heart pounded like a cowhide drum. After denying it, she added softly, “I promise you.”

The PE class routine was unremarkable: gather, run, do exercises, then dismiss.

Jiang Nian usually went straight to the classroom to do homework, but recently, he had added an advanced biology class. The burden on his shoulders had increased significantly, and he was sick of solving problems.

He finally had a PE class and was too lazy to go back to the classroom, to avoid the awkwardness of running into the class’s ‘wild mandarin ducks’ (couples).

It must be said that couples are truly bold.

During PE class, taking advantage of the few people in the classroom, knowing there was surveillance, they sat in a blind spot against the wall, pretended to do homework, and then reached out, covered by a school uniform.

Jiang Nian saw it last time but was busy with problems and pretended not to notice.

He couldn’t help but wonder, was there some attribute bonus for doing problems after a certain intimate act?

Ugh, how vulgar, how vulgar!

Shaking his head, he joined the basketball team.

However, he quit after one round of half-court, as the skill gap was too large. If he kept monopolizing the court without subbing out, the others would barely get a few minutes of play in a whole class.

He had no particular obsession with basketball; he just couldn’t stand that group of gays.

If you’re playing basketball, why are you hugging people?

Especially a low-down basketball player like Li Hua; every move he made was a foul. If you didn’t watch him for a second, that scoundrel would resort to dirty defense.

“Why aren’t you playing anymore?” Li Hua stood on the basketball court and asked curiously.

In the sunlight, Li Hua looked sincere.

“Come play a few more rounds.”

“No thanks. If I shake you off a few more times, you’ll be playing with my ‘few rounds’.” Jiang Nian couldn’t stand it and quickly distanced himself. “Damn, how can there be such a dirty thing like you on the court?”

Li Hua laughed and pointed at him.

“You’re just weak, damn it. Your body’s pretty good, isn’t it? But you can’t handle a little confrontation. Alas, the weak always find excuses for themselves.”

Jiang Nian’s middle finger was the only response to Li Hua.

Seeing Jiang Nian turn to leave, the big Ma Guojun, Ma Guojun, walked over and asked curiously,

“Why did he leave? I still wanted to hear some bride price jokes.”

“He can’t beat me at basketball, what else?” Li Hua shook his hand, turned back to the court, and said, shaking his head, “Masters are always so lonely.”

Ten seconds later, a pig-like scream erupted from the court.

“Li Hua! Are you guarding the person or touching his crotch!”

“Bumpkin, that’s how everyone defends in streetball!”

“Damn you, so arrogant! Come on! Aruba him!”

Jiang Nian had already walked away. Someone was playing soccer on the sports field, but he wasn’t keen on participating, so he turned to look around the field and found a few people playing badminton.

He was originally walking towards the boys’ side, but halfway there, Chen Yunyun called out to him.

“Jiang Nian, come over here!”

The voice rang out, attracting a group of people to turn their heads. After all, Chen Yunyun was also very attractive. At this moment, she had taken off her jacket to play badminton, revealing a figure far superior to that of an average high school girl.

A circle of boys, some from Class 3 and some from neighboring classes, looked at Jiang Nian with a hint of envy. After all, he was someone who could get along well with pretty girls.

That tone, that intimate attitude, couldn’t be hidden, yet it wasn’t the kind of ambiguous feeling of an early romance.

Jiang Nian hadn’t really gotten along with many girls. Besides being quite familiar with Zhang Ningzhi and Yao Beibei from his small group, he was only slightly more familiar with Chen Yunyun.

He wasn’t familiar with the girls gathered around Chen Yunyun. He knew their names, but had barely spoken to them.

Jiang Nian was about to wave his hand in refusal when Chen Yunyun ran over.

Her swaying curves were a little obvious, but not overly exaggerated. In the second he was stunned, she was already in front of him, and she directly put a badminton racket into his hand.

“Here! You play with Yu He! She’s too strong!”

“Huh? But I’m only average.” Jiang Nian demurred, but he had already half-agreed. “I can’t beat her, don’t push me into this.”

After all, once you’ve seen the game, you can’t not play.

Jiang Nian felt his arm brush against something and couldn’t help but wonder if he had drawn a lucky card today. Why was he getting benefits?

To be honest, being brushed against by a well-endowed high school girl he was on good terms with felt quite good.

However, this couldn’t be blamed on Jiang Nian.

Chen Yunyun… sigh, why is she so enthusiastic? Playing is playing, why all the pulling and pushing? He really didn’t like being forced into things like this.

At the nearby ping-pong table, Sun Zhicheng felt a bit envious. Jiang Nian had a really good relationship with them. He had wanted to join in, but he felt too awkward by himself.

He wanted to find Lin Dong, but in a blink of an eye, he couldn’t find him, unsure where he had run off to.

On the badminton court, Wang Yuhe’s expression remained unchanged.

She thought to herself that Jiang Nian would be a good whetstone to test her strength. She felt she had improved recently. She could kill him with one punch—never mind, they were classmates after all.

Although she didn’t know Jiang Nian’s skill level, the thought of his 3000-meter run time made her feel a little excited.

A strong opponent with such stamina, she approved!

Jiang Nian reluctantly stepped onto the court, looking at the silent Wang Yuhe opposite him. He couldn’t help but ponder, her aura seemed a bit strong.

Well then, let’s play seriously. Love shouldn’t just rely on touching moments; he’d use powerful smashes to earn her respect.

Let’s play.

Smash with all your might!

Wang Yuhe pursed her lips, her brows slightly furrowed, and the badminton shuttlecock instantly flew high into the air.

No chapter breaks; there will be another chapter later, in the early morning.
