“Yeah! I’m the one from that club, you know, the one with the name.” The girl suppressed her voice, nodding her head and mimicking his tone as she replied.
“Oh! I’m sorry! I can never remember your last name!” Yang Qianfan felt a bit awkward and forced a smile as he heard her imitate him.
“It’s okay, at least you remember my first name.” The girl beamed at him. “I’m not called Niu Hui or Ma Hui; my name is Zhu Hui. You mustn’t forget it again!”
“Oh, right, right, right, you’re Zhu Hui.” Hearing her introduce herself in such a humorous way made Yang Qianfan want to laugh. At that moment, he seemed to forget all the unpleasantness from the court just moments ago.
“I really didn’t expect you to play basketball so well! That dribble and three-step layup you just did was simply amazing! I was cheering for you from the crowd, shouting and encouraging you. Did you see me?” Zhu Hui’s eyes sparkled as she smiled at him, raising her hand to mimic his shooting motion while squatting down to sit beside him.
Yang Qianfan felt uneasy with her sitting so close and shifted his body slightly to maintain some distance from Zhu Hui. “Sorry, the atmosphere on the court was too noisy, so I didn’t see you,” he said with a smile, though inwardly he mocked her: “With someone so short, it would be surprising if I could see her.”
“Really? That’s okay.” Zhu Hui pouted slightly in disappointment at his response but quickly cheered up again. “Even though your class is five points behind Class 5 right now, I have a feeling that your class will definitely win this match. So you must give it your all and don’t get discouraged!” As she spoke, she raised her right hand and made a cheering gesture for him.
Seeing her sincerity, Yang Qianfan couldn’t help but look at her a bit longer and casually replied, “Thank you for your kind words; I hope so too.” After saying that, he turned his head to glance around the area. As his gaze swept across the crowd, it inadvertently landed on where his teammates were sitting. His teammates were all looking at him and Zhu Hui with mischievous grins on their faces. Yang Qianfan’s heart raced; he nearly dropped the Xian Cheng Duo in his hand as he thought, “Oh no, these guys must have misunderstood something.” Quickly thinking of an excuse to escape the situation, he hurriedly stood up and left Zhu Hui’s side as if fleeing from a plague.
As soon as Yang Qianfan returned to his team, his teammates launched a barrage of questions at him. “What’s your relationship with Vice President Zhu Hui from the student council? How did you two meet? Why did she give you Xian Cheng Duo while we got plain water? Are you two…”
“Stop it! Don’t talk nonsense!” Yang Qianfan was irritated by their wild speculations and pushed them away. “I’ve only met her once and exchanged a few words; we’re not close at all.”
“Just met once and exchanged a few words? Who are you trying to fool?” One skeptical boy pointed towards Zhu Hui’s direction. “Look at how she looks at you—like a lovesick puppy. It’s clear that you two have more than just a casual acquaintance.”
“I… why would I lie to you? We really just talked a little!” Yang Qianfan stared wide-eyed at their doubtful expressions, feeling helpless like a scholar caught in battle without any way to argue back. Just then, he accidentally glanced over at Zhu Hui; she was staring at him with an adorably silly smile on her face. With his experience from multiple relationships, Yang Qianfan concluded that if a girl looked at him like that, it likely meant she had feelings for him. The thought that Zhu Hui might actually like him sent an involuntary shiver down his spine, making his scalp tingle.
The referee's whistle finally blew, signaling the end of the five-minute break, and both teams returned to the court. However, the momentum between the two sides was clearly different. Class Sophomore (5) was forced to substitute due to an injury to their center, leaving them lacking in confidence. In contrast, Class Sophomore (1), led by Yang Qianfan, had used the five-minute break to recover their energy and spirit. They radiated an overwhelming aura of determination that quickly overshadowed Class (5).
Especially Yang Qianfan, who seemed to be inspired by Zhu Hui's earlier encouragement. As soon as he stepped onto the court, he performed exceptionally well, like a wild stallion that could not be tamed. He fiercely scored several baskets in succession, rapidly closing the gap in the score. In a surprising turn of events, with no time left on the clock, he made a three-point shot that clinched the victory for his team. They triumphed over their opponents by a narrow margin and secured the championship title in the basketball competition of this sports meet, achieving his long-awaited dream of winning and embracing his beloved.
