An Zhixin glanced shyly at the girl as she swept a piece of hair from her temple to the back of her ear. She paused before saying, “This… I don’t know if it’s possible. Can we wait until he finishes the game?”
“Hehe, I’ll take that as a promise then!”
From then on, those girls paid the match no attention and instead badgered An Zhixin with questions about Yin Shaojie.
Upon hearing how convincing An Zhixin was, their belief that An Zhixin and Yin Shaojie were friends grew even stronger.
An Zhixin was enjoying the flattering and ingratiating attitudes of her classmates, which she had never experienced before.
It was at this moment that she understood how Han Yun’er had felt.
She couldn’t help but think that if this was the treatment accorded to her when she was seen as Yin Shaojie’s friend, how would she be treated if he was his girlfriend then? Wouldn’t she be…
An Zhixin couldn’t help but to feel on cloud nine as she thought about how everyone would go out of their way to please her.
Her heated and infatuated gaze fell on Yin Shaojie and was locked upon his figure once more.
Meanwhile, directly opposite An Zhixin.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked unhappy. She had never imagined that An Zhixin would be here.
Han Qiqing complained, “Why is this girl in our school? Is she a student at Second High? She’s absolutely shameless! Did you hear how she called Yin Shaojie “Shaojie” just now? I got goosebumps just hearing it!”
Han Qiqing was a few sentences in before she saw the odd look on Mu Xiaoxiao’s face.
“Xiaoxiao?” She nudged Mu Xiaoxiao and looked at her worriedly. “Are you okay? Don’t mind her. How effective can her schemes be, anyway? Look, even Yin Shaojie is ignoring her.”
Mu Xiaoxiao frowned and said a little angrily, “I’m only unhappy at how she acted earlier.”
She had acted as if she was very familiar with Yin Shaojie, going so far as to scream Yin Shaojie’s name to cheer for him in front of so many people.
Yin Shaojie had ignored An Zhixin then.
However, other people would mistake the relationship between her and Yin Shaojie.
Han Qiqing didn’t know what to say to her. She could only hug her arm, and she replied, “Let’s watch the match first; it’s what’s more important now. Ignore the irrelevant things.”
Yeah! She would be able to distract herself and stop thinking about unhappy things if she focused on watching the game.
“Xiaoxiao, watch the match and don’t think of anything else anymore!”
The match was really intense at that moment.
The team from Second High originally paid Yin Shaojie no mind when he first entered the court.
All of them thought that Yin Shaojie was probably a rich young scion who did nothing but enjoy the pleasures of life everyday. How good could he be at basketball?
However, they were proven wrong in less than a minute.
The ball was in the possession a Second High team member when the match started again. However, Yin Shaojie seemed like a ghost as he managed to steal the ball successfully from him after only hovering in front of him for two seconds.
Yin Shaojie then sprinted to the hoop in a flash as though there was no one else but him.
He jumped up coolly, and with a push of his elegant fingers, the orange basketball made a beautiful arc though the air.
The basketball then went right into the hoop!
“Woah — ” The entire stadium was in an uproar. The girls were screaming excitedly, and they couldn’t believe their eyes.
More importantly, that was a three-pointer!
Thus, this one shot not only evened out their score with Second High but also put them one point ahead of the latter.
The people who were originally worried for the Shangde team looked at one another before beaming excitedly.
They had never known that Young Master Jie was this good!
How could they lose with him around?
The spirits of their team were raised, and the match continued even more intensely.
Shangde kept scoring, and Second High kept falling behind.
