~7 min read 1,379 words

The boys on the side saw this scene and were all filled with disbelief.

"How is this possible? He Qiang couldn't even gain the upper hand in strength?"

"What is he doing? If he loses again, he'll really lose all face."

"He Qiang, didn't you eat? Go for it!"

Someone shouted urgently.

He Qiang was also anxious, his expression solemn.

Although he didn't want to believe it, he had already realized that the physical strength he was so proud of couldn't compare to this guy in front of him.

Since that was the case, he could only rely on technique.

He began to dribble quickly, while using various feints, trying to trick Qin Tian and seize the opportunity to break through with the ball.

However, this also didn't work.

With Qin Tian's reaction speed, there was no need to guess how he would break through.

"Senior, go for it!"

Beside Zhao Zi, Bai Weiwei suddenly shouted.

Many people around were stunned, casting surprised glances at her.

Bai Weiwei's pretty face flushed slightly, but she gathered her courage and shouted again:

"Senior, go for it!"

After a moment of silence on the side of the court, other girls who had been stunned by Qin Tian's handsomeness also followed suit, not wanting to be outdone.

"Senior, go for it!"

"Handsome, go for it, go for it!"

The voices grew louder and louder.

"Hey, are you serious? Cheering for him? He Qiang is our classmate!"

A boy shouted with a resentful expression.

"Mind your own business, who we cheer for is our freedom."

"Exactly, who told that senior to be more handsome and better at playing ball than him."

"It was He Qiang's fault to begin with, he wouldn't admit defeat after losing, he had to be bullied twice, who wants to cheer for him!"

"Exactly, exactly!!"

Several girls said one after another, completely siding with the outsider.

For a moment, the boys from both classes were so angry their teeth itched, wishing they could rush up and kick that embarrassing He Qiang away.

On the court, He Qiang heard these discussions and became a bit anxious.

He changed his movements, feigning the illusion that he was going to break through to Qin Tian's right.

In fact, he had already realized that the chance of breaking through Qin Tian's defense was very small, so he prepared to gamble and jump for a shot.

Qin Tian had actually already sensed his intention.

He chose to play along, coordinating by making a defensive move to the right.

Sure enough, He Qiang fell for it.

He suddenly took a step back, leaped high, held the basketball high above his head, and threw the ball toward the hoop with a fairly standard shooting posture.

"Got it!"

He Qiang's eyes lit up, his heart filled with joy.

Having played basketball since he was a child, he had a certain awareness of whether his shot would go in.

This shot, nine times out of ten, would go in.

However, at this moment, his vision was suddenly blocked.

In the shocked gaze of everyone, Qin Tian's tall figure soared into the air like a roc spreading its wings, easily surpassing He Qiang.

"Bang!"

A sound like an explosion echoed.

The basketball He Qiang had just thrown was slapped by Qin Tian.

The basketball flew over He Qiang's head, slammed into the ground like a cannonball, and after making a huge sound, it bounced high.

The large basketball court was strangely quiet, and only the sound of the basketball colliding with the ground could be heard one after another.

He Qiang was completely stunned.

This heavy block was like a slap to his face, with a stinging pain.

"I won."

Qin Tian's calm words broke the silence.

The crowd recovered from their shock.

The boys all had ugly expressions, unwilling to accept this reality.

But the terrifying jumping ability, explosive power, and ball skills Qin Tian had just displayed made them unable to muster even a bit of confidence in their hearts.

The girls all had excited expressions, their eyes looking at Qin Tian filled with admiration and love.

"I lost, I'm sorry."

He Qiang, like a defeated rooster, hung his head and apologized in a dispirited manner.

Everything didn't matter anymore.

He had lost, not only lost thoroughly but also lost all his face.

Qin Tian wasn't the type of person to be aggressive; seeing him apologize, the slight anger in his heart extinguished.

"Be calmer in the future; chasing girls isn't done the way you did it."

When he walked to his side, Qin Tian raised his hand and patted his shoulder lightly, passed him by, and headed toward the teaching building in the distance.

He Qiang was stunned for a long time, then turned to look at Qin Tian, who was walking away, and shouted: "Senior, let's play ball together when you're free!"

Qin Tian didn't stop, just slowly raised his right arm and waved at them with his back turned.

Bai Weiwei opened her mouth, just about to ask Qin Tian for his contact information, when she suddenly saw a cute, slightly chubby girl running toward him.

The boys and girls from both classes saw Qin Tian take the mineral water the girl handed him, drink half of it, and the two left together while laughing and talking.

"Is that the girl he likes?"

Bai Weiwei felt a sense of loss.

"Sigh!"

Zhao Zi sighed, held her hand, and comforted her: "Don't take it too much to heart, a boy like him will never lack girls who like him; choosing who to accept is his freedom."

The meaning of what she said could be summarized by a popular internet term in the future.

Priority mate selection right!

………………………………………………

"How did you know I was here?"

Qin Tian asked curiously.

"Hee hee..."

Xia Nuannuan's eyebrows curved, she raised her finger to point in the direction of her exam room, and said with a smile: "I was sitting by the window during the exam, and the window happened to face the basketball court. I saw you playing ball here, so I came over."

Qin Tian looked in the direction she pointed and said in surprise: "You can see this far? Your eyesight is so good!"

"Yes, yes, my eyesight has always been very good."

Xia Nuannuan's pretty face flushed slightly, pretending to be calm.

In fact, without binoculars, it was impossible to see the faces of people on the basketball court from the exam room.

Her Chinese grades were relatively good, and she had plenty of time left after finishing, so she looked out the window in boredom and discovered a familiar figure on the basketball court.

She couldn't see the specific face, but for some reason, she just knew this familiar figure was Qin Tian.

So she handed in her paper early, hurried downstairs, bought a bottle of mineral water at the campus supermarket on the way, and delivered it to the basketball court.

"Why did you come to play basketball?"

Xia Nuannuan changed the subject and asked curiously.

"I finished and handed in my paper early, and I couldn't go back to the classroom, so I went to the court to play for a bit, and then some things happened."

Qin Tian answered with a smile.

"What happened?"

Xia Nuannuan asked again like a curious baby.

Qin Tian looked at her, hesitated, and then said honestly:

"Nothing much, just two junior girls came over to chat with me for a few sentences, and then a boy who was playing basketball liked one of the girls and got into a conflict with me."

"Is that so..."

Xia Nuannuan nodded in realization, her bright, big eyes staring straight into his eyes.

"Don't look at me like that, this was truly an unprovoked disaster for me."

Qin Tian said with a wry smile.

"Does that junior girl like you?"

Xia Nuannuan asked directly.

"This..."

"I understand."

"Ah? What do you understand?"

"Hmph! I don't want to talk to you."

Xia Nuannuan hummed angrily, turning her head away in a spoiled manner.

Black lines fell on Qin Tian's forehead, and he regretted it so much he wanted to slap himself.

If he had known, he shouldn't have told the truth.
