Chaos ensued on the field, and the coach hurriedly called an ambulance.
The No. 2 Middle School basketball team was completely dumbfounded. They originally thought they were going to lose, but then this happened. Did they win the game or was it null and void?
He Ning was punched twice, his handsome face bruised. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with his thumb and sat up from the ground.
He glanced sideways at the direction where He Jing was, then silently looked at Guan Chen, who was lying not far away like a dead dog. With a ball coming from such a distance, Guan Chen was probably crippled and wouldn't be able to get out of bed for at least three months.
Actually, he could have pushed Guan Chen away. After the coach's grueling training, his muscles were stronger and he was more powerful than Guan Chen. Guan Chen was no match for him. But for some reason, he gave up struggling and took two punches.
That way, someone might care about him a little more...
That morning, the wontons the girl handed him with a smile were too hot; he swallowed one, and his internal organs felt hot all over—
I wish I could keep eating forever.
"Second Brother." He Chen walked up to He Ning, knelt down, and bent over to check on He Ning's condition, his voice full of concern, "Are you alright?"
He Ning lowered his eyes, gave a casual "hmm," grabbed the hands that the other basketball players from No. 1 High School were extending to him, and stood up.
The referee blew his whistle and waved his flag, announcing: "Number 8, red card, off the field."
With the ball in the last 20 seconds or so, it had to be replayed, and the position vacated by Guan Chen was filled by a substitute.
The students in the stands all sat back down and began cheering for the No. 1 Middle School basketball team. The slogan "He Ning, you're the best" had been changed to "He Ning, hold on, the hero is back!"
The basketball soared high into the air, and both teams leaped to grab it. He Ning was the first to slam the ball down, then, with a burst of sparks and lightning, he broke through the defense of the No. 2 Middle School basketball team—
A beautiful dunk.
The match is over.
No. 1 Middle School won.
Cheers erupted again from the stands.
The provincial team coach smiled and quietly left.
He Ning stood on the court and looked at He Jing's position. He Jing seemed to be applauding him, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.
"You're happy to have He Jing watching over you, aren't you?"
He Chen's voice rang out beside him.
He Ning smiled without hiding his laughter: "Of course."
He Chen sighed softly, "With He Jing around, my second brother plays basketball really fiercely. Our classmates at school all say that. We've played friendly matches before, and my second brother is usually very low-key."
I've never been this hardworking and eye-catching as I am today.
He Ning said calmly, "I just don't want to lose face in front of her, and you don't either, do you?"
Otherwise, he wouldn't have defended Guan Chen so desperately, to the point that Guan Chen felt so ashamed and angry that he did something so extreme.
He Chen smiled and said, "Of course."
The ambulance arrived quickly and took Guan Chen away in the blink of an eye. The coach wanted He Ning to get in the ambulance as well to go to the hospital, but He Ning refused.
He changed out of his jersey in the locker room despite his injury, intending to return to the playground to find He Jing. As soon as he stepped out of the teaching building, he saw He Jing standing at the bottom of the steps at the entrance. Seeing him, she frowned and quickly walked towards him.
"Second Brother!"
A barely perceptible smile appeared in He Ning's eyes, but his expression remained calm as he asked, "Why did you come straight here?"
He Jing didn't answer, but instead stood on tiptoe to carefully observe his handsome face.
Fortunately, the injury wasn't serious; it's just that his cheekbone was a bit red and swollen, which looked a little scary.
"When I get back, I'll boil an egg for my second brother to roll around in."
