By the time Jiang Hua and Ji Kexin returned with the water, the first match between S University and B University had ended. Jiang Hua couldn't help but complain that she hadn't seen the match.
B University won against S University by three points. At this time, Jiang Hua also returned to her volunteer duties, put on the jacket distributed by the volunteers, and handed out water to the athletes. Actually, she just wanted to congratulate Gu Yiming, after all, it was quite happy that the game was won.
After successfully delivering the water to the students from S University, Jiang Hua headed towards the location of B University. Everyone cheered when they saw Jiang Hua, since beautiful women are always popular, especially a high-level beauty like Jiang Hua.
Jiang Hua handed the water bottle to Gu Yiming: "Hey, congratulations! But we at S University will definitely win the next game, just you wait!"
Gu Yiming carefully observed Jiang Hua's walking posture. Seeing that her foot injury didn't affect her too much, he wasn't too worried. Instead, he retorted, "I'm looking forward to it. But our B University isn't just for show. Just you wait and see!"
Jiang Hua glared at Gu Yiming, then distributed the water bottles to the athletes from S University. When she was about to give the last bottle to a handsome substitute player, the boy declined, saying, "Thank you, senior. But it seems you went to buy water again and distributed water, and I don't think you've drunk any yet. I didn't play in the last game, so I don't need any. Thank you, senior."
Jiang Hua couldn't help but feel a sense of goodwill towards this polite boy. She sat down on the chair next to him and asked, "How did you know I didn't drink? Besides, you're an athlete; you should rest and recharge your energy."
The boy blushed slightly, scratching his head.
"Because I just saw it, senior, I really don't need it anymore, you can have it."
Jiang Hua couldn't help but smile brightly. This guy from S University was kind of cute: "Alright, the competition is about to start, good luck!"
"Wait a minute, senior! My name is Xiao Huan, can you tell me your name?"
Xiao Huan looked at her senior who had already gotten up and asked anxiously, her delicate face slightly pink.
Jiang Hua couldn't help but smile even more brightly: "Hello Xiao Huan, my name is Jiang Hua! Okay, good luck."
Walking towards Gu Yiming among the athletes, she said with a hint of joy, "Gu Yiming, I didn't expect there to be such a cute boy among your substitutes. He's taller than me, but he's still kind of adorable."
A dark glint flashed in Gu Yiming's eyes as he looked at Jiang Hua, who was smiling broadly in front of him. He then recalled the scene of him chatting happily with Xiao Huan earlier and couldn't help but become a little cold: "Well, I'm not familiar with him."
Jiang Hua looked at Gu Yiming, who seemed a little confused, but didn't think much of it and returned to the area where B University was located.
At this point, a teammate came over and teased them.
"Hey! It seems like she likes that Xiao Huan kid more!"
"Hey bro, there are plenty of fish in the sea, why be hung up on just one? Get ready to go on stage."
Gu Yiming wiped his face with a damp towel, glanced in Jiang Hua's direction, and went on stage without saying anything.
The second match begins
Jiang Hua was initially very excited, and there were screams all over the basketball court, but Jiang Hua was a little surprised. In the end, the timer went to zero, and the referee announced that B University had won. It should have been a happy thing, but Jiang Hua was a little worried about the somewhat dejected figure in the crowd.
Ultimately, unable to withstand the inner torment, Jiang Hua left the audience and ran towards Gu Yiming.
Walking up to Gu Yiming, who was sitting in the audience, Jiang Hua ignored Xiao Huan's greeting and was panting as she looked down at Gu Yiming, who was sitting in his seat.
Just as he was about to speak, the coach from B University suddenly walked over and gave Gu Yiming a stern scolding.
"Gu Yiming, were you even a player on the court just now? You didn't give it your all against the opponent, and sometimes you even forgot to pass or tackle. What's worse, you forgot about the team! Forgot about your teammates! This is not only disrespectful to your teammates, but also disrespectful to the opponent! Because you didn't give it your all!"
"Think it over carefully yourself. If it doesn't work, then find someone else!"
After saying that, he left without even looking at everyone's expressions.
Gu Yiming's teammates shook their heads helplessly, wanting to comfort him but not knowing where to begin, since Gu Yiming had really underperformed this time.
Jiang Hua stood there stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses. She sat down next to Gu Yiming, gently patted his shoulder, and spoke with a faint smile.
"Gu Yiming, what are you thinking about? Don't think about anything else on the court. Just focus on the game. Didn't you tell me to wait and see? You've already given up?"
Jiang Hua, expecting no reply, heard Gu Yiming's muffled voice: "Go chat with Xiao Huan! Weren't you laughing happily? Why are you bothering me?"
Jiang Hua was surprised when she heard this, then chuckled softly.
"Don't laugh!"
Gu Yiming raised his head and glared angrily at Jiang Hua. This woman went to chat with other men, leaving him standing there, and now she still doesn't know how to repent! She really... needs to be taught a lesson!
Jiang Hua suppressed a laugh and patted Gu Yiming's head: "Alright, Xiao Huan is just a junior. As your former deskmate, now brother and friend, you'd better live up to his expectations. I believe in you!"
Actually, they weren't a couple. Jiang Hua shouldn't have explained, but she still did, afraid that Gu Yiming would misunderstand her. Perhaps it was because of that slight affection she felt for him.
Gu Yiming turned his head away from Jiang Hua, but a faint smile appeared on his lips: "Alright, you can go back now. The third match is about to start."
Jiang Hua smiled, patted Gu Yiming on the shoulder, and walked back. The third match started quickly. Watching someone on the court who seemed possessed by a football god, she felt a warmth in her heart. Gu Yiming's spirits returned, and S University was defeated.
Jiang Hua was actually a little happy to see B University win, because Gu Yiming won. However, she didn't laugh out loud to avoid being torn apart by the people from S University.
As everyone was packing up to leave, Gu Yiming said something to the students from B University. The B University students left, but Gu Yiming walked towards them with his things, looking at his roommates who were a little stunned.
Jiang Hua congratulated Gu Yiming, who was standing in front of her, saying, "Congratulations, Gu Yiming, the main force of B University, you have won."
Gu Yiming took Jiang Hua's things directly: "Jiang Hua and her roommates, would you do me the honor of having a meal with me, a key member of B University?"
Jiang Hua glared at Gu Yiming and tried to grab her bag, but Gu Yiming grabbed it tightly. Her roommate nodded in agreement, completely ignoring the two who were "showing affection."
