The players opened their eyes wide in surprise. From the way Xia Xi dribbled the ball just now, they could tell that she was a novice. It was not easy for a novice to make a three-pointer. At the very least, they needed to use the height of a jump.
Xia Xi's foot was injured, so he obviously couldn't jump. Was he supposed to stand still and shoot a three-pointer? The difficulty increased.
They felt a little sorry for the beautiful woman, but they couldn't speak for Xu Yanfeng. They glanced at the person involved, and everyone was wondering whether he could be cruel enough.
It’s just WeChat, there’s no need to embarrass others…
Just as they thought of this, they heard Xu Yanfeng say, "You vote."
His face was pale, his voice was low, his jaw was straight and slightly raised, and he looked at Xia Xi leisurely.
Several boys shifted their gaze from Xu Yanfeng to Xia Xi, waiting for her to create a miracle.
Xia Xi faced forward, his eyes fixed on the backboard that seemed very close but was actually far away. He held up the basketball with his palms facing up, constantly adjusting his posture and breathing, aiming at the basket.
Xu Yanfeng saw that her shooting posture was not standard and had no hope that she could make the shot.
But he felt very strange in his heart. He couldn't tell whether he hoped Xia Xi would make the shot or not.
According to her, if she lost and stopped harassing him, wasn't that exactly what he wanted? Why was he so entangled and confused, and then felt so irritated?
Xia Xi spent too long preparing for the move, and she seemed increasingly unsure. That was only in the eyes of others; she herself was very confident. Before throwing the ball, she glanced at Xu Yanfeng, her eyes brightening. "I think God favors those who are sincere. What do you think?"
Xu Yanfeng didn't reply. He held his coat in his hands, his fingers clenched tightly. No one knew that his palms were sweating. He himself had never been so nervous even when pitching in a game.
Xia Xi narrowed his eyes, like a falcon ready to take flight. Suddenly, he exerted force on his wrist, tensed his muscles, and threw the basketball in his hand fiercely.
The ball drew a perfect parabola in the air and headed towards the backboard.
The boys watching held their breath unconsciously. With many years of experience in playing basketball, what Xia Xi just did was not called pitching, that was called smashing the ball. It was all based on brute force and had no technical skills. It would be a miracle if he could even make the shot.
And...it's really a ghost!
The basketball hit the backboard with a "clang" and bounced back, hitting the edge of the basket. It rolled half a circle and was about to jump out, but it barely stabilized, slid inward, fell into the blue frame, and hit the ground.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
The basketball bounced several times on the ground and rolled away.
"Holy crap! Awesome!"
Several boys opened their eyes wide, opened their mouths, clapped and shouted, more excited than if they had scored a goal themselves.
Xia Xi had just held her breath, and after getting the expected result, she was finally able to let out the breath she had been holding for a long time. Her heart was filled with great joy, and her eyebrows opened, becoming extremely beautiful.
She crossed her arms, looked at Xu Yanfeng, and raised her eyebrows: "What did I just say? God will favor those who are sincere. Now you see my sincerity."
Xu Yanfeng remained silent.
Xia Xi was afraid that he would default on his debt, so she hopped towards him on one leg. She was now able to get rid of the crutches, but she still couldn't walk very smoothly, and she couldn't hop as fast as she could on one leg.
When he stopped in front of Xu Yanfeng, his body tilted slightly. Xia Xi hurriedly grabbed his clothes and looked up at him.
Xu Yanfeng looked down at her. She might not know that every time she looked at someone like this, she was very charming. He couldn't say this.
Xia Xi pinched his sweater with her fingers and shook it gently: "You asked me to vote, and I won. You can't go back on your word. Add me on WeChat."
This show was not suitable to be watched any longer. Several boys looked at each other, and one of them cleared his throat and said, "We'll wait for you outside. Don't forget to have dinner outside the school later."
The boys pushed each other and retreated.
The footsteps hurriedly faded away until they disappeared. Only Xu Yanfeng and Xia Xi were left in the venue. They faced each other and stared at each other. Her hand was still grabbing his clothes, as if she would never let go if he dared to go back on his word.
Xu Yanfeng stared at her for a moment, accepted defeat, sighed silently, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and released her WeChat from the blacklist in front of her.
Xia Xi watched him finish the operation, and finally felt relieved. But she was also worried that he would regret it later, so she made a promise with him: "Don't block me again."
"It depends on your performance." If you dare to post nonsense again, he will block you.
Xia Xi felt extremely aggrieved, her voice not as bright as before, and she collapsed: "How else can I perform? You have so many flaws, and I accidentally stepped on them."
Xu Yanfeng put the phone back in his pocket, didn't answer her, and prepared to leave.
He looked down at the cloth in her hand. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very clear: Miss, can you let go?
Xia Xi had achieved her goal and decided to moderate her behavior and stop pestering him, lest she really annoy him. She loosened her hand and, considerately, gently smoothed the fabric with her palm, smoothing out the wrinkles she had caused.
But she seemed to feel the hard abdominal muscles through the fabric. They looked very firm to the naked eye and felt really good.
Xu Yanfeng was sure that he was being taken advantage of, so he frowned, pushed her hand away, and walked away.
*
We had dinner at Deshenglou, where the beef and mutton are excellent, and the name also has a good meaning, Desheng, which fits the theme of tonight.
Xu Yanfeng treated everyone to a meal, calling his roommates over. Several teammates also invited their friends over, setting up a large table for a lively feast. Air-flown New Zealand beef and Aubrac beef were available in unlimited quantities, allowing everyone to eat to their heart's content.
