When the final whistle blew, everything was settled, and the scoreboard showed that Jiang Xu and his team had won.
They easily defeated Liu Xian and his group in a playful manner.
The quarter-pointer momentarily stunned the crowd, followed by an absolute roar of cheers.
"Wow, they're controlling the score, precisely retaliating before unleashing their absolute strength."
"Well done! Let them play dirty tricks. They deserved to lose."
"Exactly, these handsome guys are not only amazing on the outside, they're amazing on the inside too."
Hu Bingbing's gaze was completely fixed on the black-haired man. The young man standing on the court was a more dazzling presence than the sunlight, and she really, really wanted to get closer to him.
Ji Hai and the others immediately put their arms around Gu Li, and Xu Lang said with a smile, "Wow, Jiang Xu, you're ridiculously handsome."
Lü Chao nodded, "I admit it, that was a really cool shot."
Xie Tao nodded, "Let's go, this really has to be a celebration banquet."
Liu Xian walked over with a stern face. "You kept hitting people; your victory was unfair!"
Jiang Xu looked over coldly, "How about I get you a megaphone so you can properly appeal your case?" He got quite angry at the mention of hitting someone, "You're lucky you weren't killed."
Liu Xian, "You!"
Hu Bingbing's running voice interrupted Liu Xian before he could finish speaking. "Jiang Xu," she said, her voice filled with surprise.
"Here it comes, here it comes, the battleground has arrived! It looks like the handsome black-haired guy has won this time."
"Indeed, temperament, appearance, and more importantly, character, all these factors guarantee a win."
"But I think they're not a good match. Although Hu Bingbing is quite pretty, I don't know why, but I just feel they're not a good match."
"You know what, I actually think so too."
"But after Hu Bingbing cheered him on, he worked really hard. I think it's mutual! So sweet."
"Wasn't it because the handsome redhead was injured that he looked like that? And when he finished, he was looking in that direction too."
"The way you're doing that... hehe, it seems like it might work."
Jiang Xu looked at Hu Bingbing, "Is something the matter?"
Hu Bingbing raised her hand and said, "I'm here to bring you water." She was holding a bottle of mineral water with a misty spray on it.
Jiang Xu said, "I don't drink mineral water." His tone was calm, and his refusal was straightforward.
Hu Bingbing waved her hand dismissively, "That's alright, I'll buy you something else next time."
Jiang Xu ignored everyone and walked directly towards Gu Li, with Hu Bingbing following him.
Lu Chao and the others exchanged glances. Lu Chao lowered his voice and asked, "What's the deal with this woman?"
Xu Lang: "It's so obvious, she's pursuing Jiang Xu. What about Gu Li?"
Ji Hai: "You two have really gone too far."
Xie Tao: "This person is indeed a bit annoying."
Jiang Xu also found it quite annoying, especially since he clearly didn't want to pay attention to this person, yet this person was still following him.
He sat down next to Gu Li, then looked at Hu Bingbing and said, "Are you selling water? I'm not buying from you, go find someone else."
Hu Bingbing laughed, "Jiang Xu, what are you saying? I'm really happy that you won this match for me!" Her voice was loud, as if she was afraid that people nearby wouldn't hear her.
The rumors she deliberately spread will now be confirmed, so that Jiang Xu will eventually feel that they are a couple.
Gu Li looked at Hu Bingbing and said, "Who do you think you are? You think winning a competition is because of you?"
Hu Bingbing said, "Classmate, don't be so harsh. You'll definitely be Jiang Xu's good friend even if he's dating someone in the future." She emphasized "good friend".
Gu Li, "Oh?" He tilted his head, "What good friend?"
Jiang Xu said, "She just opens her mouth and says whatever comes to mind; who knows what she's saying?"
Hu Bingbing attracted a lot of attention. Holding the water in her hands, she spoke with a face full of admiration, "I think I have some feelings for you." She lowered her head slightly, a little shyly, "Think about it carefully, and we'll talk about it later." After she finished speaking, she tried to run away.
Jiang Xu had no intention of letting the flying rumors get any more chaotic. "Wait a moment, I want to reply to you," he said in a deep and steady voice.
Hu Bingbing widened her eyes slightly and looked back. "Don't rush to reply. It would be more appropriate to think about it again."
Jiang Xu shook his head, his voice gentle, "No need, I've thought it through."
Hu Bingbing actually wanted to refuse; she felt something was off, and Jiang Xu's attitude had changed a bit too quickly.
But her leaving would leave a bad impression. "Okay, go ahead and say it, but I have something else to do. Can you hurry up?"
Jiang Xu nodded, "Of course it will be quick."
Hu Bingbing: "Okay."
Jiang Xu asked directly, "Do you like me?"
Hu Bingbing was taken aback by the question; it was a tricky one to answer. She thought for a moment, "If I said yes, what would you say?"
Jiang Xu answered without hesitation, “I will say,” he said firmly, “No,” he asked calmly, “Do you know what I like? If you can name just one thing, then I will feel that you really like me, and then I will know what to say to you?”
Hu Bingbing was stunned by the question. What does she like? She had always been successful in love, and she never needed to know these things.
She has always been the one who takes the initiative, and most of the time she waits for others to take the initiative.
Hu Bingbing: "I...you...I need to find out more about this."
Seeing that the other person was still persistent, Jiang Xu asked, "Then let me ask you a different question. How long have we known each other?"
Hu Bingbing answered quickly this time, "Several weeks!"
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "Then you've been saying for so long, if you like me, how come you can't say what I like at all?"
Hu Bingbing really didn't know what to say now; she was trying hard to recall what she had said.
Jiang Xu wouldn't give her much time. "In the end, there's absolutely no possibility between us. No matter why you did this, I'll just give you one last piece of advice," he said slowly, "that your feelings come from the heart, even if it's just a little bit."
Hu Bingbing listened to Jiang Xu's words, "Why don't you like me? So many people like me, how will we know if we don't try?"
Jiang Xu said, "Because I won't help you make mistakes, not even a little bit." He waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I think you have things to do."
Hu Bingbing wanted to say something more, but she came seeking the support of rumors, and now it was rumors that were sending her away.
"What's going on? Isn't this supposed to be a two-on-one scenario? Why does it seem like Hu Bingbing likes the other person?"
"Yeah, and people even said that she'd been exposed as not liking him. What do you think her motivation was?"
"A friend of mine who knows her a little bit told me about her, and she said that this person..."
Hu Bingbing couldn't stand these rumors. "You don't have anyone you like, I don't believe there's no possibility between us." She couldn't accept that her goal had fallen through.
Jiang Xu said thoughtfully, "Who said I didn't?" He continued, "Besides..." He muttered something in a low voice that no one could hear, then looked at Hu Bingbing, "Are you really going to interfere even with all this?"
