We three quickly became tipsy, and Situ Jianfei even raised his glass to toast, "Come on, let's have another round!" "Brother, we really can't drink anymore, we can't handle it. Let's call it a night," I hurriedly blocked his hand, my words stumbling a bit. Zhao Bin saw the situation and tried to mediate, "Alright, Jianfei, today is a happy day. It wouldn't be good for them to get drunk and go home. Let's just wrap it up." Hearing this felt like we had grasped a lifeline, and we quickly echoed, "Yes, yes, let's just call it a night. It wouldn't be good for our parents to see us like this when we get back." "Right, then let's head out. By the way, we should bring some good food back for Shuai Dong and Pang Hao," Situ Jianfei also relaxed. We quickly stood up. "Yes, definitely! I'll go see what good dishes we can pack." I dashed out of the private room door. Phew! Finally escaped; if you don't have good drinking capacity, it's tough to keep up with Situ Jianfei.
We stumbled out of the restaurant, and there were still two injured friends who were hungry. We hurriedly rushed back to the hospital. As soon as we entered, we saw Uncle Shi, Aunt Shi, and Uncle Yu; they had just brought lunch for those two guys. As soon as we walked in, Shuai Dong excitedly shouted, "Haha! The feast is here! Pang Hao, look! Good thing we haven't eaten yet!" Uncle Shi turned around and smiled at us, "You guys are here! Dong and Qiuhao won the championship in the street basketball competition and are treating them to a feast. So they're on a hunger strike right now." "Oh dear! Uncle and Auntie, don't worry! Now that we're here, they definitely won't starve themselves," I joked with them as the parents laughed and walked out.
"Come on over! We're starving! Where's the feast? Bring it to me; I'm ready to eat!" Shuai Dong kicked back with his legs crossed, looking almost like a king.
Today's celebration was truly exhausting. After leaving the hospital, we planned to go our separate ways. We agreed that the championship trophy would first be placed at Ouyang's house along with A Fei's family temporarily since it was Ouyang's first time handling a championship trophy. We decided to let Ouyang take it home first for fun. Ouyang happily grabbed the trophy and bounced home while A Fei and I stuffed the medals and certificates into our pockets as we walked home. As soon as I entered the door, I shouted, "Mom and Dad, come out! Welcome your Champion's Son!" No sooner had I spoken than my parents rushed out. I slapped the certificate and medal into their hands: "Here, take a look!" My parents received the certificate with smiles: "Wow! Son, you did it! You're the Defending Champion! Amazing!" "Of course! When I make my move, there's no chance of missing!" I plopped down on the sofa while my mom took the certificate and medal over to the display cabinet in the west side of the living room while saying, "Jie is amazing; another championship title."
After entering my room, I called Xia Ying since it seemed like I hadn't talked to her in ages. I wondered what was going on with her. When Xia Ying answered the phone, her tone was very flat: "Jie, what's up?" "Hehe, can't I call you if nothing's wrong? I've missed you! Let me tell you some good news: today we won the city championship! We're champions!" I cheerfully shared this good news with her. "That's great! So you're now the Defending Champion! Congratulations!" Xia Ying finally showed some interest but I could sense she wasn't genuinely happy. "Cookie, can I ask you something?" I couldn't hold back anymore; it seemed Xia Ying had already guessed what I wanted to ask because she sighed deeply: "Sigh! Go ahead; I'll tell you." Huh? This time Xia Ying surprisingly agreed so readily. "Yingying, what happened between you and Situ Yanan?" I asked directly.
"Okay then; I'll tell you everything. Situ Yanan pulled me aside at Lake City Park and told me she likes you," Xia Ying said calmly and composedly. "Yeah, I know that; what else?" I replied just as calmly. This left Xia Ying stunned: "Then you know why you're still...?" "Nonsense! Because I don't like her!" For some reason, I felt a bit impatient as I responded back. Xia Ying was surprised for a moment before suddenly lowering her voice: "She knelt down begging me to let you go because she thinks you have feelings for her but because of my presence you two have never been together..."
"That's nonsense! What's wrong with her? That girl is despicable! Let me tell you Xia Ying; I've never had any improper thoughts about her—I'm annoyed by her! How could I like her?! Do you believe that?" Hearing this made me extremely angry; I couldn't believe Situ Yanan would use such despicable tactics against Xia Ying—it's truly contemptible!
"Ah? So she was lying to me? She made me sad for quite a while—how shameless!" Xia Ying was also furious upon hearing this. "Yes! Yes! It turns out you've never trusted me; it's really hurtful—sigh! My heart feels so cold..." I deliberately made my tone sound very sad and helpless while Xia Ying hurriedly comforted me: "Oh dear! She didn't know; darling don't be mad—I was wrong."
"Then... I'll punish you by making you come out tomorrow morning to accompany me on a date shopping together since we're going to Beijing for the North China Region finals soon," I told her. Xia Ying quickly agreed: "Okay okay! Let's meet at Lijing Park's entrance tomorrow." This knot between us finally opened up; now we could approach our upcoming matches with a relaxed mindset—it feels really great! However, I'm also a bit worried about whether I'll run into her in Beijing...
