Chapter 438 – Anniversary
Even though Shen ShaoYi’s cla.s.s 2 still hasn’t partic.i.p.ated in the, based on my understanding of him, not only will he lead his team to victory, he will also create a large point difference so his cla.s.s doesn’t have to play in the second round. So that he could comfortably wait for me to compete in the finals.
His goal was to humiliate me, so he wouldn’t join an extra game for no reason and waste stamina.
So the chance to play cla.s.s 2-4 next week will definitely belong to cla.s.s 2-3.
It was an opportunity bestowed by the G.o.ds that I have to grasp if I don’t want to drink Fu Yan Jie.
But Niu ShiLi spraining his ankle wasn’t necessarily a good thing for me. It would be a pipe dream for us to win against cla.s.s 2’s Shen ShaoYi and Liu HuaiShui without a solid player like Niu ShiLi.
That’s why I was hoping his injury would be healed right away after we win against cla.s.s 4.
Sigh, everyone always says you can’t always have everything you want, but we’re always so greedy when it comes to ourselves.
Is it impossible for me to beat cla.s.s 2 and take the championship for our grade and not drink Fu Yan Jie at the same time?
After the basketball game ended, I ran to the volleyball courts as fast as possible to see if I could catch the ending of the game and get a glimpse of the cla.s.s leader’s legs.
But everyone had already left.
Only a 2m high volleyball net stood trembling in the slight wind. I heard the net should be 2.15m high for middle school girls.
The school should be using the latest “Volleyball Compet.i.tion Rules” issued by the country’s General Administration of Sports. The tournament uses the two wins out of three sets to determine the victor. The first two sets is first to 25 points while to final set is first to 15 points.
Ah, what am I saying?
My immeasurable disappointment made me ramble.
Since they had both Shu Sha and Xiong YaoYue. They were able to beat their weak opponents 2 – 0 in less than 30 minutes.
If I came to take a look during half time, I still might have caught a glimpse of the cla.s.s leader. But now I only see empty s.p.a.ce.
Apparently the cla.s.s leader was embarra.s.sed wearing the volleyball shorts, but since everyone was wearing them and it was part of the international volleyball uniform, she still followed the regulations. In the end, it was a feast for the eyes of the boys surrounding the game (d.a.m.n it, why couldn’t I get a part of that action).
But the cla.s.s leader specified she didn’t want anyone taking her pictures. A few of the cla.s.s leader’s loyal dogs from cla.s.s 2-3 diligently prevented people from taking pictures. Eunuch Cao was someone who got beat up by them.
However, when they saw cla.s.s 2-2’s Li ErLeng come watch the game with a camera, none of the loyal dogs had the courage to go and control him.
The cla.s.s leader’s performance and eagerness to finish the game probably had a lot to do with her embarra.s.sment wearing the shorts.
The cla.s.s leader immediately wore a pair of long pants over her shorts once the game ended and caused a wave of sighs from the boys around her.
The simultaneous victory for the boys basketball team and the girls volleyball team raised a lot of talk in cla.s.s 2-3. It still hadn’t died down when school had ended for the day.
“Hey hey, the cla.s.s leader’s overhand serves are incredibly powerful! They won the first set with the cla.s.s leader’s serves.”
“That’s true. The cla.s.s leader specializes in flying tools.”
“The cla.s.s leader and Xiong YaoYue’s double blocks and feints were mesmerizing.”
“Oh, did that happen? I was too focused on the cla.s.s leader’s legs and didn’t notice any techniques…”
“Winnie’s legs look good too, why did you only focus on the cla.s.s leader?”
“I can see Winnie’s legs everyday, but the cla.s.s leader’s legs are only available for a limited time. It’s like when there are LOL champs that are free for a limited time.”
The cla.s.s was filled with boys discussing her legs, but when the cla.s.s leader got closer to scold them, they immediately began to discuss the the technicals of the game like their pa.s.ses, serves, spikes, volleys, and more. It’s like they suddenly became volleyball commentators and the cla.s.s leader couldn’t really say anything to them.
Ultimately, the cla.s.s leader was pretty happy our cla.s.s was able to take home two wins. She didn’t want to break the celebratory aura, so she was lenient towards the boys.
“I heard from Geng YuHong that you played pretty well.”
The cla.s.s leader came to speak to me after expressing condolences to Niu ShiLi.
“It’s the result of everyone’s hard work.” I said modestly.
If I think about it, one reason why everyone trained so hard was because they wanted me to drink Fu Yan Jie. Fu Yan Jie became a source of motivation during their training period.
As their skills developed, they began to crave victory. Although their initial desires of wanting me to drink Fu Yan Jie hadn’t changed, they now wanted to go as far as possible in the tournament.
Their also in the same predicament as me where they have to choose between two options. Should they prevent me from scoring more points, or should they make more rational pa.s.ses and work together to defeat the opponent. It’s up to them to decide which path they will take.
“Cla.s.s leader, is the next basketball game and volleyball game also held at the same time?”
“That’s right. Otherwise I would be cheering you guys on along with the other girls. You guys must have been lonely today.”
The cla.s.s leader replied with a large smile.
“Not really lonely, but I did want to go see your game…”
Shu Sha blushed. Since all the other boys were discussing her legs, she knew why I wanted to watch the game.
I remembered that my earliest arrangement with the cla.s.s leader was that I could get free food at her house if we were number one in our grade. I also mentioned that if we could win against the other grades, she would give me more rewards.
The cla.s.s leader replied at the time: “Let’s wait until you at least take first in our grade.”
Even though we only won once, I can’t help but imagine what would happen once we get first in the school.
What requests should I make where I wouldn’t get shot?
Should I go on a date with the cla.s.s leader? We can go to a cafe, the movies, or an amus.e.m.e.nt park.
While I wouldn’t be shot, that request would definitely be rejected. It clearly goes against our school rules, and Shu Sha wouldn’t be the first to break the rules as a cla.s.s leader.
I was suddenly struck by a bright idea as I remembered I couldn’t see the cla.s.s leader in her volleyball uniform. Will the cla.s.s leader take a photo with me in her volleyball uniform if I brought my team to number one in the school?
It doesn’t have to be at school, we could do it at her house. Since I’m going there for food, we could let Shu Zhe take the photo. His camera skills are quite good based on his self taken photos.
It’s not that unreasonable, but will the cla.s.s leader agree?
“Will this affect next week’s game against cla.s.s 4?” The cla.s.s leader interrupted my delusions.
I glanced at the bandages wrapped around Niu ShiLi’s right foot. Chen YingRan might be a pervert, but she has good medical skills, and she specializes in injuries caused by physical exercise. I often see her reading books such as ‘Emergency Rescue in a Gym’ or ‘How to Protect the Career of an Athlete’, probably so she could get even closer to shota.
“It should be fine. Cla.s.s 4 wasn’t that strong and they lost two of their best players. As long as I don’t get injured, we should be able to win with ease.”
“That’s good.” the cla.s.s leader nodded, “Please be careful and don’t get injured.”
“Alright.” I agreed, but felt her words sounded strange. Why did she have to be so polite, why couldn’t she say, “I’ll be sad if you get hurt”.
I really want to hear the cla.s.s leader say something like that.
“I’ll be sad if Ye Lin cla.s.smate gets hurt”.
Xiao Qin had suddenly appeared between me and the cla.s.s leader and spoke in a coy voice.
The cla.s.s leader left awkwardly.
Xiao Qin smiled and said:
“Ye Lin cla.s.smate, it’s Friday. I’ll take you to a restaurant tonight and we can celebrate today’s anniversary.”
“Anniversary of what?”
“Did you forget? It’s our 46 day anniversary. To commemorate the 46 days since I became your girlfriend.”
“What’s there to celebrate?”
Xiao Qin pouted, “Why can’t we celebrate it? I also want to celebrate the 47th day, 48th day, 49th day….”
