Chapter 32: Chapter 31: Watch the Game or the Beauties? Damn, the two of them were actually conspiring to ambush during the basketball game, Lin Tian squinted his eyes, emitting a dangerous light. Unfortunately, they would never guess that he wasn’t an Ancient Martial Artist, but a zombie. The conversation inside hadn’t ended, Lin Tian continued to listen. "I didn’t expect it either. Not long ago I taught him a lesson, and at that time, he didn’t seem that impressive at all. Has he been pretending the whole time?" Sun Decai also couldn’t figure it out, the weakling whom he could have beaten single-handedly had now far surpassed him. Bai Yufeng sneered coldly, speaking somewhat cruelly, "I don’t care what he will become in the future, the fact that he is slapping my face right now means I have to ruin him." "Hehe, of course, Lin Tian is our common enemy. For this basketball game, does Mr. Bai have any interest in setting up a bet?" With the important matter settled, Sun Decai’s mood relaxed as he made the suggestion. "Setting up a bet?" Bai Yufeng was taken aback, then disdainfully said, "Even if we call in the reserve players from the school team, the difference in strength is so vast, what’s the point of setting bets? And nobody would place them anyway!" Sun Decai waved his hand and laughed, "We can spread the rumor that the main players of the school basketball team are injured and then reveal some of Lin Tian’s capabilities, raising their odds. That way, definitely a lot of people will bet on Lin Tian’s victory. If Lin Tian suddenly has an ’accident,’ resulting in them losing the game, it will not be our fault." "Hehe, Brother Decai, you’re really bad to the core, but I like it, hahaha, come on, cheers, to a pleasant cooperation!" Bai Yufeng in high spirits, laughed heartily. Actually setting up bets on the game, Lin Tian sneered internally, not scamming you guys would simply be unjust. He withdrew his gaze, put his phone away, and calmly walked back to the "West River Moon" private room. "Lin Tian, you took so long in the washroom, we’ve finished eating," Xiao Manxuan came running over, puzzled. "Ah, that quick, well, let’s go then, I’m almost done too," Lin Tian was indifferent about eating or not. After calling the waiter to settle the bill, the group left the West Garden Restaurant. Right as they were exiting, Zhang Lingyu whispered to him, "So, did you eavesdrop on anything?" "Don’t make it sound so ugly, where did you see me eavesdropping!" Lin Tian feigned confusion. "The student with the surname Sun mentioned by the waiter is your enemy, right?" Zhang Lingyu glanced at him with certainty in her voice. Unable to fool this little girl, Lin Tian grew more curious about her identity, he grinned slyly, "Want to know what I overheard? I won’t tell you, just to let you feel a bit anxious." Zhang Lingyu couldn’t help but laugh at his teasing while also feeling exasperated; it was clear he was taking a petty revenge for her hiding her identity. "This man is so quick to anger for a beautiful woman, yet he’s incredibly shrewd, and now he’s acting like a sulking child," Zhang Lingyu was extremely curious about which side of this man was real. Everything was arranged, and they all dispersed, just waiting for the showdown after school in the afternoon. When they came back to class in the afternoon, the whole school was discussing the basketball game. The elite class of Grade 12, Class 1, challenging the school basketball team was something that had never happened in the history of the school. The elite classes were known to the other students as a group of academic overachievers, with sports generally being their weak point, and now they dared to challenge the school basketball team, which surprised everyone. "Good afternoon students, it’s time for the campus broadcast. We have an important announcement, at 6:30 p.m., Grade 12, Class 1, challenges the school team in basketball. The game will take place in the school gymnasium, please come to watch," announced the broadcast. These announcements played in every classroom, and as if the news wasn’t explosive enough, the broadcast continued. "Classmates, I’ve just received the latest news: Senior Class One is going to form a cheerleading team; the captain will be none other than our goddess, the first school beauty Xiao Manxuan, as well as the newly-risen joint first school beauty, Zhang Lingyu..." "Wow..." The broadcast was overwhelmed by the howling of the boys, and a wave of enthusiasm surged through every classroom. Lin Tian glanced at the unaffected Xiao Manxuan and Zhang Lingyu, thinking these two little girls were quite composed, embodying the full goddess vibe. Is it necessary to be so excited? Lin Tian touched his nose, puzzled. Are you looking forward to the game or just wanting to watch the beauties? He took the opportunity before class started to step outside the classroom and make a phone call to his former roommate Liu Wenxing. He knew about Lin Tian’s girlfriend being poached and the subsequent fight with Sun Decai, which almost led to Lin Tian being expelled. Lin Tian had kept in touch with Liu Wenxing; they were former roommates, and now Liu Wenxing was his only friend left. "Brother Tian, it’s that bastard Sun Decai who’s stirring up the trouble with the game, right?" "He’s always been looking for trouble with me. Can you help find out about the betting odds for this game? I’ll transfer money to your card; I’m betting on Senior Class One to win," Lin Tian said bluntly. "Are you confident, Brother Tian? They seem to have released some misleading information; your odds have gone up to 25 to 1." "It doesn’t matter, just place the bet," Lin Tian said, ending the call with a wry smile on his lips. To think they dared to set the odds at 25 to 1; he would bet four hundred thousand and turn it into ten million after one round, sending Sun Decai and Bai Yufeng reeling to their grandmas’ homes. Soon the afternoon slipped by, and as the end-of-class bell rang, students poured out of the classrooms, rushing toward the gymnasium. If they were late, there would be no good spots left; everyone wanted to grab the prime seats at the front, a little closer to the school beauties. Lin Tian got his group together; dozens from his class headed towards the gymnasium, an impressive sight. Leading the way were Lin Tian and his five teammates, followed by a uniform group of lovely cheerleaders, led by the two school beauties; behind them came the excited classmates. On the way to the campus gymnasium, more and more people joined Lin Tian’s group, and by the time they reached the entrance, their ranks had swelled to an imposing number. People were chanting "Goddess" and "Lin Tian"; even though it was Lin Tian’s first day at school, his act of rage for the sake of beauty had made him immensely popular. Especially the girls were excitedly shouting his name. Their fervor was like waves crashing against the shore, startling the early arrivals into giving way to Lin Tian’s procession. From a high corner of the gymnasium, Sun Decai and Bai Yufeng watched the crowd below, feeling very irked. "Hmph, let him be smug now. When he falls, experiencing the taste of Heaven and Hell must be especially delightful," Sun Decai ground out through clenched teeth, turning to speak to Bai Yufeng. "Mr. Bai, do you know Xiao Manxuan? What’s her backstory?" "I do know, but I can’t tell you. If one day you find out yourself, don’t go spreading it around; it won’t do you any good," Bai Yufeng spoke the truth. At the last family gathering, he was instructed to keep Xiao Manxuan’s identity a secret, not to disclose it to others. Rich families usually operate like this; before their children officially take over the family business, there’s almost no information about them to be found outside. "Alright, it’s time to enter. Today our target is Lin Tian. If he ends up in such a predicament, he has only his own arrogance to blame for offending the wrong people." The source of this content is freewe(b)novel
