"This way, this way."
Fang Xun clapped his hands, sending signals to his companions.
With his flexible body, he shook off the defenders and ran to the open space.
Beyond the three-point line.
For these equally tall and strong boys, the three-point line is not very far from the backboard, just three or two steps.
The teammate who was surrounded by two people immediately made a fake move and passed the ball.
Fang Xun received the ball, without hesitation, he stared at the basket intently and jumped lightly.
The ball flew out of his hand.
As if in slow motion, everyone's eyes were fixed on the small basketball.
With a "snap", it brushed the net and fell in accurately.
"Wow!"
"nice shot!"
"Fang Xun is so handsome!"
"Senior is amazing! He even made the three-pointer!"
The girls around suddenly burst into cheers and clapped excitedly with their hands and feet.
Cong Nian's eardrums buzzed.
She doesn't understand basketball, she just saw that Senior Fang Xun seemed to have made the shot?
What is a three-point shot?
She doesn't know.
In order not to appear out of place, she could only clap along with the girls around her and huddle in a small ball next to Yu Xinghe.
Poor, weak and helpless.
She didn't know how she suddenly blended in with the crowd.
There were several boys sitting on the left, also wearing dark blue basketball uniforms and sweating profusely.
It should be the one they just said was replaced.
She didn't quite understand the words related to basketball.
The small basketball court was squeezed into a small area by ten boys, all aiming for the brown basketball.
Sweat dripped onto the ground like rain, and the sound of basketball shoes rubbing against the ground was a bit harsh.
Cong Nian looked at the jumping boys, but suddenly a familiar figure appeared in her mind.
The man was wearing a black basketball uniform and a baseball cap pulled low, covering half of his face. Only his angular jawline and knife-thin lips could be seen.
He was wearing white Bluetooth headphones and playing with his phone with his head down.
When she finally mustered the courage to ask for directions, she was given completely wrong directions.
That was the first time she saw He Sui after many years.
He Sui seems to like playing basketball too?
I heard the fight was pretty intense.
Her thoughts gradually drifted away, and two shallow dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth. She didn't even realize that she was smiling.
Suddenly, a fierce basketball battle broke out on the court. Three people were defending Fang Xun who was dribbling into the three-point line.
Fang Xun's teammate ran by and successfully took the ball from Fang Xun's hand, but when he passed the ball to another teammate standing under the backboard, the ball was intercepted in the air.
The force was so great that the basketball flew straight towards Cong Nian, who was looking down, wondering what he was thinking.
"careful!"
A boy on the court shouted and jumped towards the basketball, but failed to touch it.
Yu Xinghe was browsing on his phone and when he realized the danger, the basketball was already in front of him.
Almost as a reflex, she stretched out her hand.
He slapped the basketball with one hand and embraced Cong Nian with the other.
However, it was still too late.
Cong Nian's reaction was half a beat slow again. When she looked up blankly, the basketball was only ten centimeters away from her face.
She didn't even have time to stare.
Because it was hot and her bangs were wet from running, she clipped her bangs to the sides, revealing her smooth forehead.
A divine force beside her pulled her to the side.
The next second, she crashed into a soft embrace, and the familiar sweet fragrance enveloped her.
The basketball that almost became her nightmare tonight hit her forehead with a "bang" and then bounced back.
Suddenly, she felt dizzy and everything in front of her eyes started spinning.
A dull pain spread from the temples to the entire head.
“Hmm…”
Tears suddenly filled his eyes and Cong Nian groaned in pain.
"Nian Nian!"
Yu Xinghe called out anxiously.
Several boys immediately gathered around.
Fang Xun squatted in front of her, looking at her eyes full of tears, her fair little hands covering her forehead.
His brows were slightly furrowed, his former gentle appearance disappeared, and his face was full of worry.
"How are you?"
He raised his hand to cover her forehead, but stopped in mid-air. Looking at the dirt on his palm, he withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Behind her, the boys who had just grabbed the ball looked at the girl's pale face and rushed to apologize.
"Schoolgirl, I'm sorry. I was a little quick just now. Does it hurt?"
"Are you hurt? Let's go to the infirmary?"
"Do you want me to rub it for you?"
"Schoolgirl?"
"Schoolmate..."
In an instant, everyone squatted in front of her and surrounded her.
Cong Nian felt his head was buzzing and the tinnitus made him feel uneasy.
The people around her seemed to be talking about something, but she couldn't hear clearly.
She closed her eyes and opened her mouth, wanting to say that she was fine, but what came out was another low moan.
"Hmm."
She pursed her little lips, looking extremely aggrieved.
She was just distracted for a moment and was innocently affected.
Basketball is indeed a dangerous sport that can easily lead to accidental injuries!
Fang Xun stood up and asked the girls sitting next to him for a bottle of purified water, then opened it and rinsed his hands.
The clear water was rushing, and some of it splashed onto his basketball shoes.
He took a tissue from the side and wiped the water off his hands before squatting back in front of her.
His freshly washed hands were a little cold, and he poked her hand gently with his fingertips.
"let me see."
Fang Xun asked softly, and his gentle voice inexplicably soothed the uneasiness in her heart.
Cong Nian leaned on Xinghe's shoulder and slowly opened her eyes.
My vision was blurred by tears and I could only vaguely see the vague outline of a person.
He had very fair skin and was very tall, and he squatted in front of her.
"Put your hands down."
The man gently pinched her pinky finger.
She obediently put down her hand, blinked, and her vision became a little clearer.
"Senior Fang Xun..."
Cong Nian called out, her aggrieved nasal tone making her voice even softer, and she tried hard not to let the tears fall.
Somehow, when I saw that the person in front of me was Senior Fang Xun, I felt a moment of loss in my heart.
She couldn't cry in front of her senior, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
"The skin isn't broken, but it's a little swollen."
Fang Xun gently pressed the bump on her forehead, his voice as soft as the bright moonlight.
Looking at the little girl's aggrieved face, I suddenly found her cute.
He chuckled.
Perhaps he realized that laughing out loud was inappropriate in this situation, so he bent his fingers and wiped the tears from the corners of the little girl's eyes, and his voice softened.
"Like a little horn."
Cong Nian: “?”
Did she hear it right?
The person teasing her is Senior Fang Xun, right?!
