Ruan Qing returned to his room to freshen up and changed into
casual clothes. Meanwhile, the few people in the living room freshened up under
the guidance of the housekeeper.
After a simple breakfast, they set off for school.
Boarding students didn’t go home on Saturdays and Sundays,
and the basketball game was a big event, attracting many day students as well.
So when Ruan Qing and the others arrived, there were already
a lot of people standing on the basketball court, making it quite noisy.
Ji Zhiyuan and Xiao Shiyi arrived and told Ruan Qing that
they would prepare for the basketball game before returning to their own class.
After arriving at the venue, Ruan Qing changed into his
basketball jersey. However, he didn’t completely undress before putting on the
jersey. He simply took off his school uniform jacket and wore the basketball
jersey over his short-sleeved shirt.
After all, the jersey was a bit too big for him, so it was
better to wear something inside. Otherwise, he would feel a bit chilly in the
morning.
The basketball game was about to start in a while. Ruan Qing
sat arrogantly on a bench, surrounded by people. When he scanned the
surroundings, he seemed like a high and mighty emperor inspecting his
territory.
On the other side of the basketball court, belonging to Class
1, a girl’s clear voice suddenly rang out, “Brother Su Qing!!!”
Ruan Qing paused when he heard the voice and looked towards
the source.
On the opposite side of the playground, a girl from the same
year, dressed in a school uniform and with a pure and lovely appearance, was
happily waving at him, her face adorned with a clean and radiant smile.
Ruan Qing was momentarily stunned before he realized that she
seemed to be the original owner’s... girlfriend, Xia Baiyi.
Xia Baiyi was also in Class 1, but she didn’t seem to have
much of a sense of belonging to the class. She stood quite far from Class 1.
When she saw Ruan Qing looking over, she immediately ran towards him with a
joyful expression.
Ruan Qing stood up as Xia Baiyi reached him and asked, “Why
did you come?”
“I missed you, so I came,” Xia Baiyi said with a bright
smile, appearing very happy.
Her tone was soft, tinged with a hint of coquetry, but it
didn’t come across as artificial or annoying. Instead, it gave people a sweet
feeling, and the original owner was quite taken with it.
Ruan Qing imitated the original owner’s actions and gently
patted the girl’s head, speaking like a grown man, “Remember to cheer for me
later.”
An ordinary person would probably look a bit greasy doing
this, possibly giving the impression of an average guy. However, when the
teenager did it, there was a certain degree of pleasing aesthetics, as if he
was arrogantly encouraging others to cheer for him.
“Mmm!” Xia Baiyi nodded vigorously, then tiptoed slightly and
leaned towards the direction of the teenager, as if she wanted to give him a
kiss.
Seeing this, Ruan Qing instinctively leaned back and turned
her head to avoid her kiss.
Xia Baiyi didn’t get angry or embarrassed. She affectionately
held Ruan Qing’s arm and playfully winked at him. “I will definitely cheer for
Brother Su Qing with all my effort!”
Mo Ran glanced at Xia Baiyi beside Su Qing and his gaze
finally fell on her hand holding the teenager’s arm. After a few seconds, he
handed the teenager the already opened water bottle and said, “Brother Su, do
you want some water?”
However, before Mo Ran could finish his sentence, Xia Baiyi
seemed to have been pushed from behind and accidentally bumped into the water
Mo Ran had handed over.
Since the water bottle was already open, a considerable
amount of water spilled directly onto the teenager, wetting his clothes.
Xia Baiyi widened her eyes and didn’t have time to figure out
who had pushed her. Instead, she hurriedly tried to dry the teenager’s jersey
with her sleeve, saying, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, Brother Su Qing.”
There was a tremor in Xia Baiyi’s voice, and her eyes quickly
filled with tears, as if she was about to cry in the next second.
Clearly, she also understood the teenager’s temperament.
“It’s okay, it will dry soon.” The original owner of the body
had some patience when dealing with boyfriends and girlfriends. It wasn’t
enough to get angry over such a trivial matter. Ruan Qing avoided Xia Baiyi’s
hand, took the towel handed over by Mo Ran, and wiped it off.
The water wasn’t much; it just dampened a small area and
would dry soon.
After Ruan Qing finished wiping, he saw that tears had
already streamed down Xia Baiyi’s face. He took out a tissue and wiped her
tears, saying, “Alright, don’t cry. It’s not pretty when you cry. My girlfriend
must be the most beautiful.”
Only then did Xia Baiyi smile, while Mo Ran’s gaze turned
completely gloomy.

Ji Zhiyuan had just returned to Class 1 and discreetly walked
to the side with a few players to share the information he had received last
night.
A tall player frowned after listening and said, “So you’re
saying they’re planning to bully those three people in this basketball game?”
Ji Zhiyuan paused and nodded, “That’s right.”
The player with a crew cut next to them was somewhat
speechless and said, “There are only ten people in a basketball game, and it
turns out that seven of them are actors, all just to bully three people. Is
that Su Qing guy out of his mind?”
Ji Zhiyuan remained silent and silently glanced at the
teenager on the other end of the basketball court.
At this moment, the teenager was being surrounded in the
center, blocked off tightly, unable to see clearly what was happening or catch
a glimpse of the teenager’s figure.
The tall player pondered for a moment and finally spoke up,
“To avoid any unexpected incidents, the three students playing should be from
our group first. At least that way, we can ensure that no one gets into
trouble.”
Even if the ghost was bound to appear, it would be better for
them to show up later, as battling them was always much more dangerous.
The other players had no objections. They were much more
skilled than these high school students and didn’t have the same strong sense
of pride as the high school students who insisted on confronting the school
bully head-on. All they needed to do was go along with the other side and
pretend to be bullied.
At least they would get through this basketball game first.
The player with the crew cut looked at everyone and asked,
“Which three should go?”
As the player with the crew cut finished speaking, the other
players looked at each other and eventually turned their gazes to the handsome
man standing next to them.
The man seemed somewhat indifferent, his face expressionless
as he flipped through a tattered notebook he had somehow obtained, seemingly
not paying any attention to their conversation.
The tall player looked at the man and politely asked, “Will
God Pei be playing?”
“No,” Pei Yan didn’t even raise his head, continuing to look
at the notebook in his hand, showing no interest in dealing with the school
bully and his scumbag ex-boyfriend.
The other players immediately ignored Pei Yan upon hearing
his response and continued discussing with their heads down. Within less than a
minute, they had reached a consensus on which three people should go on the
court.
However, their decision was rejected when it was time to go
on.
Because Xiao Shiyi directly designated a classmate to go on
instead.
It was the classmate who knocked Su Qing down yesterday. It
was none other than Song Yu.
Song Yu was also in Class 1 of Grade 1, and his academic
performance had always been ranked first in the entire grade, with a
considerable lead over the second-place student.
And the second-place student happened to be Xiao Shiyi.
If Su Qing was the school bully, then Xiao Shiyi was the
classroom bully of Class 1; no one dared to challenge him.
Although Song Yu didn’t look too good at the moment, there
was no classmate speaking up for him.
Several players had no choice but to replace one of their
teammates in the end.
The tall player and the player with a crew cut on the court
exchanged a subtle glance, reaching an agreement.
That was to protect Song Yu.
This NPC named Song Yu not only knocked down the school
bully, Su Qing but also outperformed Xiao Shiyi in academics, which clearly
made him special.
Moreover, the most important thing was that most of the
players were in Class 1 of Grade 1. This could not be explained by mere
coincidence.
You should know that there were twenty-six classes in Grade
1, and it’s unlikely for so many players to be in Class 1 if it the selection
was random.
Therefore, there must be something crucial in this Class 1 of
Grade 1, and they decided to protect their classmates in this class as much as
possible.
The basketball game was about to begin, and the five players
from Class 1 were already here, but the five players from Class 26 had not
appeared yet.
They were still standing in a circle over there, doing
something unknown.
However, no one dared to rush the players from Class 26. They
quietly stood on the basketball court, waiting.
Xiao Shiyi, who was standing at the front, furrowed his
eyebrows slightly, wondering what’s going on?
Just as he was about to walk over, the people opposite
finally dispersed.
Five players wearing red jerseys slowly walked onto the
basketball court.
The players on the other side, as well as the two horror game
players on the court, finally got a clear view of the five players on the
opposite side, including the arrogant and arrogant-looking teenager standing at
the front.
The two of them immediately became stunned, taking several
seconds to react. Then, they turned their heads abruptly, looking towards Ji
Zhiyuan behind them, their eyes filled with disbelief and suspicion.
It seemed as if they were asking Ji Zhiyuan if it was true as
they had thought.
Ji Zhiyuan, feeling the gaze of the two players, touched his
nose and nodded slightly.
The two players: “!!!!” What the f***!
Was this really happening?!
Could anyone just become a school bully these days?!
