「Jinling University」
The mont Qin Fan walked into the dormitory area under the scorching sun, soone shouted, "Qin Fan is back!" Suddenly, the entire dormitory area burst into chaos. CLATTER! Students from every floor of the dormitory buildings rushed to the railings, crowding together to look down.
"What’s going on here?" Qin Fan frowned and grunted. Totally baffled, he quickly walked up the stairs.
「Inside Room 708」
The mont Qin Fan pushed open the door...
POP! POP! POP!
Several party poppers exploded above his head. Staring at the confetti scattering from the sky, Qin Fan was even more bewildered. "Whoa—hey, what’s going on? What is all this?"
"Fourth Bro, you’re going to be famous! Seriously famous, holy shit!"
The first to speak was Brother Ze from the Northeast. But his incoherent words still left Qin Fan puzzled. I’ve only been gone for a little over twenty-four hours. How did I suddenly get famous?
"Can you speak properly? You, Li Yunzhe, tell what’s going on!" Qin Fan shot Li Qiuzhe a look, pushed him aside, and then turned to Li Yunzhe.
"Boss, Brother Ze is right! You’re really going to be famous! Holy shit, you’re about to make a na for yourself not just in Huaxia, but globally! Holy shit!" To Qin Fan’s surprise, Li Yunzhe was also overco with feverish excitent, his eyes filled with pure adoration. If he wasn’t afraid of Qin Fan kicking him away, he honestly would have lunged in for a hug.
"Third Bro, you tell !" Qin Fan said, not wanting to deal with the two lunatics as he pulled Wang Dalu inside.
"Fourth Bro, you have no idea. Right after you left yesterday, all the head coaches and team managers of the dostic CBA teams flooded Jinling University, saying they wanted to invite you to join their teams! And that’s not all. Not long after they arrived, a bunch of foreigners started showing up, one after another, non-stop. Damn it! They were all NBA team managers and executives! So were even the team owners! They were like madn, constantly clamoring to see you. It’s a good thing you weren’t here yesterday, or you’d never have been able to get away!" Wang Dalu said, speaking extrely quickly, his own excitent clearly just as intense.
Imagine it. Your roommate, your buddy, suddenly transforms into a world-famous NBA superstar. What would that even feel like? Last night, the three of them, plus Li Yunzhe, stayed up half the night trying to think of a comparable feeling and ca up with nothing.
"Basketball teams inviting ? Have they got nothing better to do?"
Amid their intense excitent, Qin Fan just frowned and blurted this out. The entire dorm room fell silent. What did that an? Did he just say they have nothing better to do?
"No way, Fourth Bro, what do you an by that? Are you not interested in this news?" After a mont, Zhu Houqing walked over, his eyes wide with disbelief as he asked.
"Not interested! If I cared about fa and fortune, would I have enrolled at Jinling University?" Qin Fan said, shaking his head with a smile.
"Holy shit, Fourth Bro, we’d get it if you weren’t interested in the CBA! But this is the NBA! With your insane shooting and speed, it wouldn’t even take a month for you to surpass Jordan and beco an unprecedented legend in the NBA! The whole world would know you, and you’d be counting so much money your hands would cramp up!" Li Qiuzhe exclaid as if he’d just heard sothing impossible, quickly grabbing Qin Fan’s arm.
Hearing this, Qin Fan laughed. Want the whole world to know him? All he had to do was sell Spiritual Water No. 1 globally, and forget recognition—the whole world would probably worship him as a Savior! As for counting money until his hands cramped, money was just a pile of paper, a string of digits. He already had one hundred billion sitting in his bank account from Li Yicheng in Macau. Plus, the inco from No.1 Group selling Spiritual Water No. 1 and Spirit Fruit No. 1 to the elite in Huaxia alone was more than he could ever make in a lifeti of playing ball and shooting comrcials. That wasn’t even a fraction of it! Join a team? What a joke!
"I’ve said it before, fa and fortune hold no temptation for . So, you guys should just chill out. There’s no way I’m going to play basketball," Qin Fan said patiently, despite his exasperation. Then, he abruptly changed the subject. "By the way, you guys went to Baldy’s banquet last night. How did that turn out?"
"Don’t change the subject yet, Fourth Bro. Are you serious? You’re not just kidding around to show off, are you?" Li Qiuzhe was clearly still focused on the team offers.
"Absolutely serious. I will never join any team. Not now, not ever," Qin Fan stated solemnly.
"Is God blind? Fuck! You’re just wasting your talent! If I had your abilities, I’d be telling them to book my plane ticket right now!" Li Qiuzhe howled. Although they hadn’t known each other long, he had gotten a pretty good read on Qin Fan’s personality. Since Qin Fan was using this tone, he knew it was a done deal. There was no way he was going. Fa, fortune... the things that drive everyone crazy... why do they have no effect on him?
"Alright, stop talking about that. Tell what happened last night," Qin Fan said, plopping down leisurely on the sofa. He poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and asked with a smile.
"Boss, you have no idea about the scene last night! It completely blew our minds!" Seeing Qin Fan change the subject again, Li Yunzhe shrewdly went along with it. "Last night at the Jinling Grand Hotel, Baldy booked the entire banquet hall on the eighteenth floor. The setup was incredible. The second we walked in, people were shouting, ’Welco, Big Brothers!’ Fucking hell, can you imagine that! I was in such a daze I completely forgot to go live. Otherwise, with a scene like that, my Kuaishou account with its hundred thousand followers would’ve probably gained a few million more overnight!"
"Can you shut up about your Kuaishou account? You’ve been blabbering about it since last night. Is it ever going to end? You want to have Baldy set the whole thing up again so you can livestream it? Fucking hell!" Li Qiuzhe, who had just managed to calm down a little, couldn’t help but curse at Li Yunzhe.
He then turned to Qin Fan. "Fourth Bro, it looks like Baldy has really chickened out! You’ll never guess this, but last night, at our table, every single person ca over to give us a toast! In the end, up on the main stage, a legendary figure they called Seventh Master was hosting this peace-making banquet. Baldy bowed and personally toasted each one of us, one by one, calling out ’Brother Ze,’ ’Brother Qing,’ ’Brother Zhe,’ and ’Brother Dalu’! Man, my heart... oh mama, I can’t even describe it! Anyway, don’t laugh, but I was on cloud nine! I was fucking floating! I’m even starting to think maybe I should get into the ga. With a big na like this, if I went out to carve out my own territory, it wouldn’t take long to plant my flag!"
