Chapter 71: Chapter 79: Drenched Like a Soaked Chicken Chapter 71: Chapter 79: Drenched Like a Soaked Chicken There used to be a saying, “A prime minister’s belly can carry a boat.” Chen Nan’s attitude towards Xiao Jiji today, in the eyes of many classmates, was undoubtedly a display of magnanimity and broad-mindedness. The boys who were somewhat jealous of Chen Nan suddenly began to admire him. As for the more extroverted girls, they gathered around, bombarding him with questions and swearing in their hearts to definitely “bag” Chen Nan. If they let such a good guy go, they’d definitely be struck by lightning! This was the sentiment of most of the girls. “Is this guy really that good?” Su Qingqing stared at the group of girls and muttered with a pout, “A bunch of fanatics.” Watching Chen Nan being surrounded by them, she felt upset, as if something that belonged to her was being snatched away, leaving a sour taste in her heart. “Let’s not crowd around here anymore, Chen Nan still has to play basketball later, let him prepare properly,” Huo Xinya suddenly came over and said with a smile to the group of girls. In her heart, Chen Nan was already her future brother-in-law, so how could she tolerate other girls aiming for Chen Nan. As the class monitor, Huo Xinya’s words carried some weight, and although the girls were dissatisfied, they could only turn around and leave. They thought that Huo Xinya was definitely jealous, especially since she and Chen Nan had been the subject of several rumors that morning. “Just because she’s the school beauty and the class monitor? I’ll eventually steal her man, just you wait, hmph!” The girls muttered to themselves, more determined than ever to pursue Chen Nan. After a short rest, the second half of the game soon began. As soon as Chen Nan appeared on the court, piercing screams erupted, and the atmosphere instantly heated up; as for the players from class six, they looked ashen, utterly demoralized. With this player, comparable to Jordan, taking to the court, did they even stand a chance of winning? Just five minutes into the game, Chen Nan had already scored six three-pointers, overtaking the opponents by fourteen points, completely demoralizing the players from class six, who seemed to have lost all will to fight. “Fuck, try not shooting threes then!” Watching Chen Nan sinking three-pointer after three-pointer, and hitting every one, Zhang Shun from class six snapped, pointing at Chen Nan and shouting furiously. “Alright, as you wish.” Chen Nan smiled, swiftly stole the ball from a class six player, then dribbled it to below the basket and leaped up to slam dunk. “Whoosh...” The basketball went through the hoop and bounced several meters high off the ground. With such skill, Zhang Shun was completely out of temper, sitting down on the ground, gasping for breath. He couldn’t comprehend how on earth Chen Nan could play basketball to such a level, “Is this guy even human?” “Shun, what do we do now?” another player came over and asked. Zhang Shun shook his head, “What else can we do but admit defeat? Continuing to play will only lose us more face.” “I think so too.” “...” And so, class six admitted defeat, and the game ended prematurely. The students from class nine immediately erupted into excited cheers, it wasn’t just about winning the game; it meant they could leave school early. As everyone was getting ready to leave, Lan Yuqin pulled Chen Nan aside and nodded satisfactorily, “Good performance, keep it up tomorrow.” “I have to play again tomorrow?” Chen Nan frowned. “Of course, you have to play for me until the final game ends,” Lan Yuqin stared at him, “If you don’t agree, I might just pursue some matters you were involved in this afternoon.” Chen Nan’s eyes widened, “But you promised earlier that as long as I won this game, everything else would be forgiven. You’re supposed to be a role model; you can’t go back on your word, can you?” “What if I go back on my word? If you object, you’ll still have to play,” Lan Yuqin snorted. Her demeanor was hardly that of a teacher’s, but rather that of a tyrannical woman. “Why should I?” “Hmph, because I’m the class teacher of class nine, and on my turf, I call the shots!” “You...” Chen Nan gritted his teeth and said, “You’re ruthless!” before turning to walk away. He didn’t bother to reason with women, because they were often unreasonable. “Silly, come on, let’s go home.” Su Qingqing stretched out her arms, calling out with a giggly smile, already prepared to jump onto Chen Nan’s back. Chen Nan felt somewhat helpless. He had already promised Huo Xinya to go to her house after school to use his Inner Strength to help her expel poison, “Qingqing, uh, you go back first, I still have some things to deal with.” “What things?” Su Qingqing looked at him curiously. “Well...” Chen Nan was hesitant, as it was really inconvenient to talk about it. “What’s all this hesitating?” Su Qingqing puffed her cheeks, following Chen Nan’s gaze to Huo Xinya. She suddenly had a realization and exclaimed, “You stinky silly, still claiming you haven’t caused trouble for Xinya, and now you’re even planning a date with her.” “It’s not a date.” “Then what is it? Talking about love?” “...” Chen Nan was speechless. How had this mischievous girl concluded on her own that he was planning something with Huo Xinya? “No answer means yes.” Su Qingqing felt a bit sour in her heart, she punched Chen Nan in the chest and said, “Fine, since you’re going on a date, just go. I have stuff to do too, heading home now.” After saying that, she turned and walked away. In the moment she turned her head, Chen Nan caught a glimpse of a hint of disappointment in her eyes. “This mischievous girl, it’s just one day without carrying you, it shouldn’t be like this.” Watching Su Qingqing’s retreating figure, Chen Nan scratched his head and didn’t think much of it but turned towards Huo Xinya. “Qingqing seems a bit reluctant to let you go!” Huo Xinya watched Su Qingqing as she reached the school gates, chuckling. Chen Nan shook his head, “Impossible, she just doesn’t want to walk and wants me to carry her back home.” “Maybe.” Huo Xinya nodded yet felt inside that it wasn’t so simple. Watching Chen Nan and Huo Xinya walk side by side toward the school gates, the boys around him felt quite bitter. It seemed the rumors were true. Chen Nan, that animal, had indeed caused trouble for the beautiful Huo Xinya! Causing trouble and not admitting it, he was worse than a beast! As for those staring eyes, Chen Nan chose to ignore them because he believed in his innocence. Though he kept calm, the moment he stepped out of the school gate, Chen Nan suddenly frowned, because he heard the “whoosh” of something slicing through the air, as if a Hidden Weapon was coming from the side. However, by the sound of it, the Hidden Weapon was moving quite slowly. “So slow, and they still dare ambush?” Chen Nan was disdainful, too lazy to even turn his head, and simply swung his fist toward the right. However— “Splash...” The moment Chen Nan’s hand reached out, he felt a cold chill all over, getting completely drenched by cold water. The Hidden Weapon turned out to be someone splashing water at him. Chen Nan was immediately drenched like a drowned rat, utterly embarrassed and dripping wet. “Damn, who the hell is so mean?” Chen Nan cursed and turned his head, only to see Jiang Xiaomi holding a bucket, looking at him triumphantly. “You pervert, dare to slap my butt, I’ll drench you to death!” Watching Chen Nan’s disheveled appearance, Jiang Xiaomi laughed heartily, nearly dancing with joy, so excited! It wasn’t until Chen Nan started to rush toward her to slap her butt that she threw the bucket at him and quickly ran off.
