"But Yun Chen, I didn't expect you to know senior Ling Xiao even though you don't know how to chase girls, and you would come to see you after school."
Huang Xinqi's words caused Yun Chen to choke several times while he was drinking mineral water. He didn't expect that senior Ling Xiao's visit to him after school would attract so much attention from his classmates. After all, Ling Xiao is a school belle-level figure in the school.
And Yun Chen still can't take the initiative to talk to his sweetheart, which makes people feel very strange.
After Yun Chen adjusted his breathing again, he wiped his mouth, screwed the cap on, and put the mineral water bottle aside.
"Hey, you haven't told me why Senior Sister Ling Xiao came to see you. If you don't make it clear that Ye Yutong is jealous, it will be difficult."
Huang Xinqi exposed the two small tiger teeth in her mouth, stretched out her fingers and poked Yun Chen's arm twice.
"Stop teasing me, how could Ye Yutong be jealous over something like this?"
Yun Chen still told Huang Xinqi the same words as he told Liu Zhiyuan. Although Huang Xinqi also expressed doubts about Yun Chen starting to study English seriously, she still believed Yun Chen's words.
[That’s okay. After telling Huang Xinqi, this big mouth will definitely tell others in the class, saving me the trouble of explaining everything one by one.]
"Hey, Yun Chen! It's your turn!"
The two of them chatted while another group finished on the basketball court. Yun Chen tied his shoelaces again and went on the court.
"Come on." Huang Xinqi patted Yun Chen on the shoulder, "Yu Tong doesn't like anyone yet and no one is chasing her. You still have a good chance."
Yun Chen nodded and left.
But something unexpected happened shortly after Yun Chen came on the court. Huang Xinqi actually dragged Ye Yutong over to watch him play basketball.
After seeing Ye Yutong watching him play, Yun Chen, who had been so excited just now, immediately felt his heart beating fast and his face turned red and he was speechless.
Seeing this, the classmates on the court came over and patted Yun Chen on the shoulder.
"Relax Yun Chen, you can't be knocked down by her. A real man must be calm and composed when facing this kind of situation."
Yun Chen took a few deep breaths and nodded to his teammates.
As he spoke, his teammates passed the basketball to Yun Chen, intending for him to serve.
"Hu~hu~"
Yun Chen stood outside the three-point line and took a few deep breaths. He looked at the basket and the basketball court looking forward to his classmates, knowing the importance of this goal.
Although Ye Yutong doesn't understand basketball, she is still curious about what will happen in the basketball game.
Speaking of which, the whole class knows that Yun Chen likes Ye Yutong. Of course, the whole class also knows that Yun Chen has not made any progress so far, and is often made a joke.
Ye Yutong naturally knew these things, but she actually didn't hate Yun Chen. Although Yun Chen liked her, he never did anything that made her feel disgusted. It could be said that this was a secret love that the whole class knew about.
Yun Chen stabilized his posture and threw the ball toward the basket.
Everyone was paying attention to this ball, as if time had stood still.
The basketball flew in the air and hit the frame and vibrated, but fortunately it shook twice and still went in.
As the three-pointer hit, the students on the court also exclaimed.
Yun Chen stole a glance at Ye Yutong.
【She saw it! She saw it!】
Yun Chen hid the excitement in his heart and did not express it.
"One more ball."
The teammate said and passed the ball to Yun Chen again.
But Yun Chen knew that the shot just now was enough. It would be embarrassing if he missed a three-pointer with this shot.
So Yun Chen passed the ball to his teammates honestly and then entered the court to lay up.
His teammates also understood Yun Chen very well, so they cooperated and passed the ball to him. After Yun Chen received the ball, a beautiful picture appeared in his mind.
"Yun Chen, you are so good at playing basketball and so handsome! Can you teach me a lesson?"
Ye Yutong walked up to Yun Chen with a shy look on his face.
The more Yun Chen thought about it, the more beautiful it became. He took off and prepared to score a goal, but a sudden air pressure appeared behind him.
With a sound of "Bang!", a tall man of 1.85 meters swatted the basketball from Yun Chen's hand behind him.
Yun Chen fell to the ground and watched blankly as the basketball that fell on the ground bounced a few times and then stopped in place.
[No! I’ve been blocked! My dream is broken!]
Yun Chen turned around and saw that it was the tallest boy in his class who did it. He was 1.85 meters tall and usually blocked shots.
Classmate 185 didn't seem to know that Ye Yutong was watching the ball next to him, he just wanted to play ball.
"Yun Chen, forget it. Ye Yutong is watching. You were not very accurate in three-pointers today. Forget it."
The teammates on the side couldn't stand it and began to persuade Yun Chen to change his style of play.
"No, giving up at this time would be equivalent to admitting defeat."
Yun Chen did not intend to use a three-pointer, but just as he was about to lay up again, the physical education teacher blew the whistle to call for assembly.
[Damn it! Someone who is only 1.85 meters taller is really too much! Why are you so much taller than me even though we are the same age! How will you find a girlfriend in the future when you are so tall!]
On the way back to the classroom after class, Yun Chen stared at the classmate No. 185 in his class, and the more he looked at him, the angrier he became! If it hadn't been for him, Yun Chen would have been so handsome in front of Ye Yutong just now (although it was his classmates who let him down).
While walking, a girl suddenly appeared in the crowd and hugged the arm of classmate 185.
Yun Chen's whole body suddenly seemed to be electrified by electricity.
Not only was he tall, but he also had a girlfriend. The gap between them suddenly made Yun Chen feel unacceptable. He just had to show off his shooting skills in front of Ye Yutong, which made him look like a clown.
"Sure enough, tall boys have an advantage in playing basketball."
At this time, Huang Xinqi suddenly appeared next to Yun Chen.
"Did you really ask Ye Yutong to come watch me play basketball?"
Huang Xinqi smiled and stretched out two fingers.
"Which one do you want to hear, good news or bad news?"
Yun Chen always felt that there would be no real good news.
"Hear the bad news first."
"The bad news is that Yutong doesn't seem to be very interested in boys playing basketball."
[So the few goals I just made didn’t attract anyone’s attention at all]
"Where's the good news?"
"The good news is that Yutong doesn't understand basketball. She thought the shot you blocked was a foul committed by the opponent."
"Isn't this the same as nothing happened?"
After school, Yun Chen also received the news and went to the next class with Ren Xi to wait for Cao Kexin to leave.
Ren Xi leaned against the wall and sighed, as if he was unwilling to go on a mission with Yun Chen.
[It seems like I really want to stay with you! If it weren’t for the fact that Senior Ling Xiao has something to do today, who would want to form a team with you!]
"As an elemental user, can you kill a magic beast alone now?"
Ren Xi asked Yun Chen coldly.
"I haven't tried it, so I don't know."
Because he has never really fought against a magical beast, Yun Chen doesn't know his true strength.
"I don't care how much you can do to hinder me, as long as you make sure you don't die."
"After all, I am your squad leader, so I still need to protect you."
Yun Chen was very unhappy with Ren Xi's look of looking down on him. If there weren't so many people, he would really want to shock Ren Xi.
