Chapter Five It Was You All Along

  Wen Ze stood still for a moment, turned around and walked up the steps, came to Gu Wenyan's face, smiled lightly: "Sorry, let you down, in the end I won!"

  Gu Wenyan's face was filled with confusion, and he first looked at Ji Su with a bitter smile, seemingly not understanding why Wen Qing had come to him. Then, in an extremely calm tone, he said: "Winning or losing has nothing to do with me, I'm just here to watch the show."

  He slightly tilted his head, and at an angle where Ji Su couldn't see, he poured out the ridicule in his eyes and the sarcasm at the corner of his lips without any disguise.

  Kid, no matter how great you are, you're just an actor on the stage. Winning or losing doesn't matter to me, I'm just here to enjoy the show!

  His hands, hanging down by his thighs, tightened imperceptibly, and a bright light flashed in his clear eyes. He stared at Gu Wenyan's handsome face, suddenly throwing back his head and laughing loudly: "Not bad, not bad... A dog that bites doesn't bark... Let's take them on one by one, and one day we'll make this world no longer have any dogs, haha!"

  As soon as Wen Jie finished speaking, he immediately left. He was afraid that if he stayed for another moment, he would not be able to bear it and punch Gu Wen Yuan in the face.

  Gu Wenyan shrugged and turned to Ji Su: "I hope my patience won't make you think I'm weak."

  Ji Su gazed at Wen Qian's receding back, a thoughtful look in her eyes. She smiled faintly: "Of course not, what's the point of arguing with someone like that..."

  This smile contains a thousand charms, the innocence and allure of a 17-year-old girl are all in it. Gu Wenyan was lost in this fragrant smile, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

  Ji Su, I must have you!

  Nothing spreads like rumor.

  In just two days, Wen Qian became a sensation among the first-year students in high school. Whether it was the introduction on stage, or the famous phrase when switching seats, or his confrontation with Mu Shanshan on the small playground, his name quickly spread throughout Qingyi Middle School. But more famous than him was Ji Su, who had always been passive.

  Whether it was the rumor of Ji Su pursuing Wen Qian that didn't come true, or Mu Shan and Wen Qian fighting over Ji Su in a fit of jealousy, in an era when entertainment was extremely scarce in high school, they could all cause a long time of attention and debate. What's more, Ji Su was such a beautiful and charming girl, so it would naturally cause even greater sensation.

  The direct consequence of this is that the crowd of people wandering around the entrance of Class 3 during class breaks suddenly increased to a frightening number, peeking and inquiring everywhere, with all sorts of people emerging one after another. However, these people had two commonalities: first, after seeing Ji Su, they all felt that it was worth coming; second, after seeing Wen Qian, they all cursed that meeting her was not as good as hearing about her.

  Ye Yuting, also known as Ye Laoshi, chased away several groups of people and then asked in the classroom with a confused expression: "What's going on? Why are so many people coming to visit?"

  Everyone below was laughing loudly, but no one thought to enlighten Teacher Ye, because everyone could see clearly that Wen Cheng was not a good guy either, and it's best if he didn't offend anyone.

  After school in the afternoon, Wen Ze had just walked out of the school gate when he saw Xu Yao sitting on the railing of the pedestrian crossing, swinging her legs back and forth. He couldn't help but tease her, saying: "Little sister, did you get lost from your mom? Don't worry, come on, Uncle will take you to see goldfish."

  Uncle Goldfish's prestige in this era has not yet been revealed, although Xu Yao didn't understand, but it doesn't mean she didn't understand the lewd factor implied in these words. So she jumped down from the railing without hesitation and kicked one foot over.

  "Be dignified, be dignified," Wen Jie said with a smile as he dodged and taught, "Girls who move their hands and feet are not beautiful, especially when you're wearing a skirt, be careful not to lift your legs too high and show off..."

  This sentence played a decisive role, Xu Yao stopped and tidied up her hair, smoothed out her skirt, stretched out her index finger to hook it, smiled warmly and bitterly, turned around, and lifted her hips.

  Bang!

  Xu Yao made a slight kicking motion, and before the other students noticed, she moved to the small alley beside them. "Hey, are you out of your mind? We clearly won today, why do you still want to compete with them? Where will you find two teammates to fight against the bull in a week?"

  It turned out that this little girl also knew about this matter. Since the reservoir trip that day, the two had not been in contact, and Xiu Yao was in class, and it was also the first time they met after school started.

  "Not bad, keeping up with the times! You know all about the hottest topics and trends in school!"

  "Preposterous! How shameless can you be, bragging about yourself like that?"

  After laughing for a while, Wen Qian suddenly became quiet, leaning against the wall with his body tilted, thinking of the resentment and unwillingness that had been troubling him in his previous life. This life would have to repay it doubly, so no matter what, the match next week could not be lost, and he must win beautifully.

  Xu Yao looked at Wen Qing's profile, the 16-year-old boy had the same awkwardness as his peers, but what was different was that he had a unique maturity that only adults possessed. His angular features were resolute yet gentle, with a subtle gaze, slightly raised nose bridge, and lips that occasionally curled up in an inexplicable self-mockery. From this angle, he was surprisingly quite attractive.

  "Hey, what's on your mind?"

  Xu Ya's face turned red, and she opened the warm hand that was waving in front of her eyes. "I was thinking, if a certain someone would call me 'sister', I might be able to help him find a basketball coach..."

  Wen Cheng was overjoyed and immediately clasped his hands together in a bow: "I'm begging you, sister, Xu sister, Yao sister..."

  "Stop, stop, stop... Are you stupid? Can't you see how disgusting I find this?"

  After meeting the basketball coach at a restaurant on Jian She Road, Wen Qian was stunned and pointed at him, saying: "You... you..."

  "This is who I was telling you about, the basketball coach, also my best friend and sister. Silly boy, didn't I tell you she's a total babe..."

  She sat down with a dejected look, yes, indeed a great beauty, but that's not the point, okay? Can you tell me why the eagle-nosed MM I saw at the awards ceremony last time would be here?

  "Hello, I'm Wen Chen, and Xiu Yao is a friend of mine. That thing last time... was a misunderstanding..." Even the usually eloquent Wen Chen didn't know what to say.

  Xu Yao rarely saw Wen Chen in such a predicament, and suddenly burst out laughing: "Who told you to be so quick-witted, it's your own fault!"

  Still don't understand, last time was completely fooled by Xu Yao, this girl is a dead party with others, and pretends not to know, digs a hole to harm herself. Just about to despise her, the beauty suddenly spoke up: "Played basketball?"

  Wen Qian was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head.

  " Impulsive! What's your specialty? Speed, strength, body... height doesn't count!"

  He shook his head again with a hint of a black line on his forehead.

  "Incompetent! What's the point of comparing with others, showing off and competing?"

  Wen Qian thought for a moment and nodded.

  "Immature! Yao Yao, I have something to attend to, goodbye."

  The beauty stood up directly, wearing jeans, her long legs suddenly attracted attention, her perfect figure was in full view, she didn't even glance at Wen Qian, turned and left.

  Uncle Wen sat in his seat, watching the girl's back disappear into the distance. After a while, he gave a thumbs up and said: "Awesome!"
