Due to the Jinling City college basketball league, the mock exams had started earlier, and now the holidays were almost over. Next, Zijing Middle School would go all out to prepare for the basketball competition.
Zhou Keren had also been assigned a task to help select the strongest lineup for the school in this league. As she watched Xu Fan, she couldn't help but think to herself, Could this guy be the one?
"Xu Fan, do you play basketball?"
Looking at Zhou Keren's hopeful eyes, Xu Fan curled his lips and said, "Playing basketball, no, but watching basketball, I'm pretty good at that."
Having said that, Xu Fan glanced at Zhou Keren's chest, and hmm, with his level of watching, he could tell the exact model in a glance!
"Um, you really don't know how to play?"
Zhou Keren was still not giving up and pressed on again. Xu Fan shrugged and said, "Haven't really played much, so don't expect to win any honors for you."
It seed like Zhou Keren brought this up mostly because she wanted him to represent Zijing Middle School in the competition, but Xu Fan refused. On one hand, he was too lazy to get involved, and on the other, he indeed hadn't played basketball much.
After all, his life in the past left no ti for such things, hanging by a thread as it was.
"Alright, looking at you that way, you don't seem like you'd be good at it..."
Zhou Keren disappointedly pursed her lips and didn't bring it up again.
Soon, the two of them returned ho, and finding himself with nothing to do, Xu Fan opened QQ and glanced through it.
Probably because of what happened a few days ago, Qin ng Yue started chatting him up...
As he scrolled through the ssages Qin ng Yue had sent him, he couldn't help but curl his lips. With her skills in flirting, other than forcing him, she probably had no chance of winning him over.
Ignoring Qin ng Yue, Xu Fan closed the small account and opened the main one. He could see that Zhou Keren was rallying her classmates in class to participate in tomorrow's team selection.
The Jinling City college basketball league was highly important to the school authorities for a reason.
If they won the championship, not only would they gain fa, but they would also bring honor to the school. More importantly, several well-known school basketball coaches would be attending. If anyone perford exceptionally well during the competition, they might get the chance to be directly recruited into their universities.
Listening to Zhou Keren's explanation, the classmates felt quite tempted, although truly skilled ones were few...
As they were goofing off in the group chat, suddenly, Chen Dongdong tagged Xu Fan.
"Boss, why don't you represent our class?"
According to the school's rules, each class had to have at least four students participate in the team selection, and after a long struggle, including Shi Yong and a few who barely touched a basketball, they had managed only three. Seeing Xu Fan co online, Chen Dongdong shalessly pitched himself.
Seeing everyone's attention turning to him, Xu Fan rolled his eyes. This guy was such a pain!
"Fine, I'm in, but you'll have to change your na."
"Hehe, Boss, as long as you can win honor for our class, what's in a na?"
"Then, bring your household registration book later and change your na to 'Basketball' from now on."
"Damn it! Boss, pretend I didn't say anything!"
Upon hearing that, Chen Dongdong cursed. This was nuts, asking him to change his na to 'Basketball' was totally asking for a beating.
Imdiately, Chen Dongdong hurriedly retracted his earlier statent.
But what frustrated him was that Zhou Keren really couldn't gather enough people. Seeing Chen Dongdong hopping around, she directly ordered.
"Chen Dongdong, seeing your enthusiasm, fine, tomorrow you and Shi Yong and the others go to the selection."
"What! Why !"
Chen Dongdong felt like crying; he had just been chatting cheerfully with Xu Fan, so why not ask Xu Fan...
If Zhou Keren knew what Chen Dongdong was thinking, she would definitely scold him for being an idiot. After all, Xu Fan lived right next door. Dragging him in by force could only lead to who knows what kind of outrageous act from him!
Naturally, Zhou Keren was reminded of the day she and Xu Fan had pretended to be a couple, and her face turned red uncontrollably.
...
The next day.
Xu Fan was now carrying a bag of breakfast, sprinting on the road to school.
He had been too comfortable over the last three days, to such an extent that he slept until just before class started. As he neared the school gate, he saw Wang Jun ordering the school security to close the gate, and Xu Fan cursed under his breath.
Knowing well that the guy was not too fond of him!
He imdiately quickened his pace, planning to dash inside before the gate closed.
But then, sothing surprising happened.
As soon as Wang Jun saw that the person outside was Xu Fan, he ordered his n to open the gate that was half closed.
"Heh, Xu Fan, hurry in, you're not counted as late."
Wang Jun looked at him with a sheepish smile, causing Xu Fan to shiver with disgust, thinking that perhaps the news of the mock exam had reached this guy's ears.
Just for being a school director, this guy would probably start treating him like a dignitary from then on.
Shrugging his shoulders, Xu Fan didn't bother to respond to Wang Jun's chatter and walked into the school while sipping his soy milk.
Class was already half over by this ti, and he imagined he'd probably get a scolding from the teacher if he entered the classroom now.
Xu Fan thought carefully and realized that it was the ti when the school was selecting team mbers.
As he had nothing else to do, Xu Fan decided to go there and join in the excitent.
Thereupon, Xu Fan headed to the school's basketball court,
"Boss! Over here! This way!"
The mont he arrived at the court, he saw Chen Dongdong and his group waving frantically at him.
Xu Fan noticed them and walked over.
"Boss! I knew you had loyalty and wouldn't abandon . Are you here to take my place?"
Chen Dongdong said this with snot and tears. With his physique, wouldn't he be embarrassed if he went up?
Xu Fan rolled his eyes and chuckled, "Dude, you're thinking too much. I'm just a spectator."
Imdiately afterward, Chen Dongdong tried to show Xu Fan the seeds he had treasured for ten years, urging Xu Fan to replace him. Xu Fan kicked him on the butt.
This guy! I'm still a student! My ti should be spent on studying!
What do I need seeds for, am I supposed to go and plant trees in the future?
After chatting idly with Chen Dongdong and Shi Yong for a bit, Xu Fan began observing the situation on the basketball court.
It looked like his class was an exception; at this ti, students from other classes were also at the scene, participating in this selection.
Although most of them were there to avoid class, there were quite a few who genuinely wanted to try out for the team.
Xu Fan was even more surprised to see that many girls were also present.
Clearly, they weren't there to try out. Looking at those pairs of long legs beneath their short skirts, Xu Fan couldn't help but smile.
If you stand out in this selection, you're probably going to get a lot of love letters.
