Sui Yi wasn’t paying attention to the cheerleaders; instead, she noticed A-A looking in her direction and gave him a slight smile.
Hiding his strength, huh? As expected of a wily old fox who’s been around the block.
For him, such a match might seem like child’s play.
After all, the gap in individual skills was too wide, yet the gap between Yu Hang and his crew and Zhang Yang and his didn’t seem to be that significant.
------
The match hadn’t been interrupted, and naturally, it soon resud...
But the previously outstanding performance was over, and now the faces of Han Yuanchong and his teammates were completely darkened.
Even though their coordination wasn’t as good as the other team’s, it was passable, and each player wasn’t as weak as they had imagined. For instance, Yu Hang and the others had significantly improved from before.
The most choking point was the two outsiders!
Damn it!
One with the blocks! Snatching the ball!
The other on the offense shooting baskets!
Yu Hang and the other two were in perfect sync, naturally, as best buds, their rapport was undeniable!
The effect was off the charts!
The score rapidly widened!
to 0, 4 to 2, 8 to 4, 20 to 6, 24 to 12...
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, were their basketball shots that crisp?!
The opponents’ morale dropped significantly!
As Han Yuanchong and his teammates beca increasingly unstable and agitated, their performance only worsened.
Many people could foresee that this match would end in the exact opposite of what they had predicted!
"I think we’re going to win! Haha, Sui Yi, what do you think?" Little Fatty Zhou burst out laughing!
We,
This was a sign of taking sides!
"Hmm, unless they change players."
After Sui Yi spoke, the other side called for a tiout.
Yu Hang and the others left the court, and Yu Hang imdiately bounced over to Sui Yi, shouting, "Sui Yi, why didn’t you buy us so water too! Look, I’m all out of water..."
His tone was a bit affectionate and coquettish...
Many girls holding mineral water bottles were torn.
Handso guy, can’t you be a bit more observant?
------
"There’s so over there... um, I’ll go buy it," said Sui Yi, noticing so girls from her class and others delivering water. She only saw them occasionally and recognized a few. However, it seed A-A and Bai Ziyi didn’t really know anyone and probably didn’t have any water to drink...
Since the two of them were brought into the ga on her account, it was naturally her responsibility to take care of so things, so Sui Yi left with Yhan Qingwu.
Due to the cacophony and mass of people behind them, they didn’t hear the shouts.
"Sui Yi, Sui Yi, you don’t have to go! Handso guy, handso guy, co here, there’s water..."
Lin Chuxiao had already bounced over, swinging two bottles of Nongfu Spring water in his hand...
Seeing this, Bai Ziyi simply offered a slight smile and said thanks, but I’m not thirsty.
On the other hand, A-A frowned and glared at Lin Chuxiao.
Lin Chuxiao: "...."
Damn! I offer you water, and you give the stink eye!
But with more people coming over, Bai Ziyi’s identity was revealed.
The Bai Ziyi from No.1 High School was recognized by so, and word spread quickly...
"Bai Ziyi, I didn’t expect you to be so good at basketball..."
"Really amazing?! You look so cool!"
Surrounded by so many people, Bai Ziyi didn’t get annoyed, and continued to smile politely...
Speaking little.
His popularity was the fiercest!
He instantly overshadowed the local, rich, and handso boys like Yu Hang.
------
Unaware of what transpired behind her, Sui Yi and Yhan Qingwu had already made their way to Second High School’s small canteen.
With more affluent kids at Second High, the school’s facilities were the best among Nanxun High, so eventually a town supermarket took over the small canteen, making it resemble a mini-mart.
Sui Yi and Yhan Qingwu initially intended to buy only water, but thinking about the many supporters from their class, they decided it would be better to buy so snacks as well.
Neither were short on cash, so they decided to make the purchases.
However, not being keen on snacking much, they rarely visited the canteen, and the lady at the counter didn’t even recognize them. She couldn’t help but take a few extra glances at their extraordinary looks and deanor.
"Hey, young ladies, which class are you from? I haven’t seen you around before?"
So beautiful and elegant, clearly not from a poor family. If they had money, why wouldn’t they co to the canteen for snacks?
Sui Yi and her companion casually responded while picking out snacks...
Seeing them pick whatever they wanted without bothering to check the prices, the shopkeeper was astonished!
Man, these girls were true tycoons!
The owner couldn’t stop smiling as she greeted two more custors who walked in.
A row of shelves lined both walls and there was an additional row in the middle. Sui Yi and her friend were selecting snacks when they suddenly heard the conversation of two other people on the other side of the central shelf.
"Ha, Young Master Li really gave us a sweet gig this ti, just play a ga of basketball, and each of us got a thousand bucks, with a bonus for taking soone down..."
"Can’t complain, Young Master Li is very generous, way better than that Han kid. But the best part about coming here is seeing all the pretty schoolgirls, so fresh and lovely, I’m getting hard just thinking about it!"
"Heh, those beauties have already been ’had’ by Young Master Li... But the others who are still decent, well, that’s another story, later we..."
Sui Yi and her friend exchanged glances.
Speechless and wordless, they finished picking their items and headed to the counter.
"Boss, the bill please, and two more cases of mineral water...." Sui Yi placed the basket full of snacks on the table and asked, "Could you help us bring it to the basketball court?"
Only two of them had co, and it wasn’t that she couldn’t carry the items, but she didn’t want to startle everyone.
The generous custors were always a favorite with the lady boss, who readily agreed with a smile, calling her husband from the storeroom to help...
Right then, two guys chattering and laughing walked around from behind the storage containers. Their eyes lit up the mont they spotted Sui Yi by the counter.
"Beautiful, need a hand? I’ll do it... no need to call anyone else."
"Big brother loves helping out beauties the most..."
The two of them approached without waiting for a response, reaching straight for the basket...
"Ah!!"
Just as the couple ca out from the storeroom entrance, they heard a scream and hurried over...
There lay two ruffian-like characters on the ground, tears and snot streaming down their faces, clutching their arms and howling in pain...
What happened here...
"So thugs from outside the school have co and are trying to ss with the students. Go tell the security guard at The Gate. Say it’s Yan Qingwu from class two who said so," Yan Qingwu told the lady boss.
The couple ca to a sudden realization!
Damn, that’s the formidable Yan Qingwu who even people like Han Yuanchong dare not provoke!
Her na resounded like thunder!
"Okay, okay... wife, go call security guard Zhang, and I’ll help Miss Yan and the others with the food," the boss said.
But soon after, their expressions turned to surprise.
Because it was Sui Yi who paid.
Watching Sui Yi effortlessly pull out three Mao portraits and lay them on the table.
Huh, so even Yan Qingwu has days when soone else foots the bill?
------
No sooner had Sui Yi and her friend arrived at the basketball court with the food and drinks than they noticed a strangely tense atmosphere enveloping the ongoing ga.
Though the scene was still lively, there seed to be so cursing in the air.
Upon closer inspection, Sui Yi saw that the other team had indeed switched players, putting in three new ones all at once.
Three muscular youths.
They exuded an aggressive air, with fierce looks in their eyes, one even sporting a toothpick in his mouth.
Under the basketball hoop, Li Run was surrounded by nearly a dozen such tough-looking youths.
"Sui Yi, you’re here! Wow, why did you buy so much..."
Even though Little Fatty Zhou and the others were astonished by the amount of food Sui Yi had brought, it wasn’t the right ti to discuss that—they quickly filled them in on what had happened after they left.
"They have more people and substitutes. After those three thugs joined the ga, they started playing dirty... look at the score... we’ve been overtaken. In such a high-intensity match, our side, including Yu Hang, would definitely not last," explained one of them.
"Right, you can see Yu Hang got kneed in the calf a while ago, he’s been running slower since," added another.
Lan Yun and the others were obviously protecting Yu Hang and the team, and after so quick chit-chat, Sui Yi and her friend quickly caught up on the situation.
Sui Yi’s gaze swept over the court, and indeed, the ga was fiercely competitive.
This intensity ca not only from the fact that the three youths had solid basketball skills, reminiscent of street basketball and superior to Zhang Yang’s showy playing, but also from their rough physical confrontations...
Aside from one guy called A, almost everyone else had been sneakily hit at least once.
For example, right now...
Bam!
Xiao Nan, caught off-guard, was shoved hard and sent flying!
Many spectators were already displeased, and now they started shouting.
"Foul again!"
"That’s not right!"
"He keeps fouling, how can anyone play!"
"Principal...."
Shi Chao could only express helpless frustration in response to so people’s protests, saying, "There’s nothing we can do, they have more substitutes. If soone fouls, they can just sit out and then co back..."
"Ha, if you’re so capable, call your own substitutes! It’s your problem if you have fewer people! Even the NBA has substitutes!" Han Yuanchong mocked them brazenly. In fact, by now, only he and Zhang Yang remained of the original team; the other three were the rough-playing thugs.
This was more than enough.
So started to suspect that Shi Chao was biased towards Li Run’s side, but without proof.
And...
Getting rid of one of the five on the court would be enough!
"Xiao Nan!"
Yu Hang and the others ran over.
Students from class one gathered around as well.
Xiao Nan lay on the ground, his arm bleeding.
It was clear he was injured!
A, after checking, felt the bone and frowned, "It’s twisted, you can’t play. Co off the court."
"Off the court? Then there will only be four players, what do we do!"
It’s possible to play with four.
But...
Yu Hang looked at the small blackboard score of 28 to 32 and furrowed his brow.
Defeat was certain!
Could they really end up losing like this?
But how could he let his injured brother go back into the ga?
Or whom could he find as a substitute?
In truth, anyone with clear sight could see that Li Run and his group were nurous, fierce, and had impressive basketball skills—no one wanted to face them. (To be continued.
