Chapter 325: Winning the Basketball Competition

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“School Hunk Huo is number one in the world!”

“Huo Yichen! Huo Yichen! Huo Yichen!”

“Another basket!!”

The crowd was filled with cheers, almost all of them from Huo Yichen’s side.

Xiao Qi tried his best to stop him, but Huo Yichen seemed to be able to read his mind. With a few steps and a feint, he caused the other party to stagger. Then, he leaned over Xiao Qi and raised his arm high to shoot the basketball.

Huo Yichen ended the first half of the game with a three-pointer from an extremely long distance. Accompanied by the cheers of the crowd and the referee’s whistle, there was a temporary break.

It had been half an hour since the start of the game. During this period, the scores of both sides went from being evenly matched at the beginning to gradually leading in the Finance Department’s favor, putting a large distance between them and the Music Department.

Damn it.

“Huff…” Xiao Qi panted heavily.

He cursed in his heart and raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his chin. His dark eyes were like a hungry wolf as he stared at Huo Yichen.

On the other hand, Huo Yichen was sitting in the rest area as usual. He did not pant as one would do after exercising. Instead, he held his cell phone and typed. It was as if the intense first half had just been a casual walk for him.

[After the competition, are you free in the afternoon? I found a new dessert shop. You should like it.]

Huo Yichen sent Murong Qiao a message.

If not for the break being too short, he would have walked over and asked her himself.

The next second, there was a reply. [Okay, there’s no class.]

Tang Chen sat next to Huo Yichen and took a big gulp of water.

“This is the first time I’ve seen you play so fiercely.” He smiled. “But that’s natural. If he dares to have designs on Sister-in-law, he has to be taught a lesson to make him give up.”

He was talking about Xiao Qi. After all, all the students of Hui University knew that Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao were a couple. Xiao Qi’s attempt to strike up a conversation had hit on Huo Yichen’s sore spot.

Huo Yichen responded calmly, “End the second half quickly. I’m in a hurry.”

He put his cell phone away and took a bottle of water to drink.

“In a hurry? But we didn’t make any arrangements for the afternoon—” Tang Chen was puzzled and stopped halfway through his sentence.

Fine, he probably had an appointment with Sister-in-law.

Since Huo Yichen had spoken, no one dared to delay any longer.

The second half began.

Initially, they thought that after running for so long, the pace of the competition would be slightly slower after exhausting a lot of stamina. However, the audience realized that the Finance Department was simply inhumane.

“The more they fight, the fiercer they become. This, you’re telling me that this isn’t cheating?”

“School Hunk Hue’s stamina is too vibrant…”

“Three minutes of silence for the Music Department.”

“I thought that School Hunk Huo had already attacked with all his might just now. Now that 1 look at it… Indeed, such an immortal figure is not something we can estimate.”

Unlike the relaxed conversation in the audience, Xiao Qi could be said to have directly faced the pressure brought by Huo Yichen as an opponent.

His condition wasn’t as good as before, but Huo Yichen was getting fiercer and fiercer. He had taken advantage of his slow movements several times. If it weren’t for Xiao Qi’s shocking reaction speed, Huo Yichen would have scored a few more points.

The competition entered its climax. The entire venue seemed to have become a battlefield for Xiao Qi and Huo Yichen.

The cheers from the audience grew louder and louder. There were even many people who posted on the forum on their phones while watching the competition, discussing the winner and loser of both sides.

One was Huo Yichen, the publicly acknowledged school hunk, and the other was Xiao Qi, a new talent in the music department.

The popularity was not low. Just when one post climbed to the top of the list, while it caused many discussions, another post with a special focus would pop up.

[[Picture] [Picture] Today is also a day of tears for love between immortals.]

The two photos uploaded by the person who posted were both snapshots.

One showed Huo Yichen kissing Murong Qiao, and the other showed Murong Qiao wearing Huo Yichen’s coat and watching the competition.

“??? I’m in class and I’m in so much pain. No matter how much I eat candy, I can’t catch up to the heat.”

“I, who was watching the competition at the scene, express that I’m so sick of it. At that time, no one expected School Hunk Huo to kiss the School Belle directly. He kissed her so beautifully that her face was red.”

[That’s right, it’s to the extent that even a girl like me would be tempted.]

The popularity quickly built up, and in a few minutes, it occupied a spot on the front page.

This made Murong Chuan’s fingers that were scrolling through the phone screen stop.

The basketball tournament was held in the afternoon, so Murong Chuan did not schedule any classes for the afternoon.

He simply looked at videos on brewing soup and planned to study it. After all, he could not lose to Nan Xuan.

However, Murong Chuan had just turned on his cell phone to search for the information he was looking for. He didn’t expect to see the school forum explode again.

Seeing the hottest post with Murong Qiao’s tag, Murong Chuan immediately clicked on it.

In the end…

Looking at the two photos at the top of the post, Murong Chuan’s good mood gradually disappeared, and his hands stopped moving.

He didn’t add water to the soup he was brewing. He only came back to his senses when the ingredients inside were burnt.

Clang!

The stirring spoon was set aside.

Murong Chuan looked at the photo of Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao kissing and found it jarring.

His good mood disappeared completely, but the smile on his lips became even wider, making people shudder.

Meanwhile, the basketball game was still ongoing, but everyone could already see the final outcome.

Huo Yichen’s attacks were getting stronger and stronger. On the other hand, Xiao Qi, who had spoken ruthlessly at the beginning, was retreating step by step. It was obvious that he had exhausted too much energy.

Murong Qiao looked at Huo Yichen’s figure on the field with a burning gaze. He nimbly dodged a few people who were guarding against him. Then, he took three steps and scored a handsome dunk. She couldn’t help but cheer for him.

Just as Huo Yichen had said to Tang Chen, the second half was strictly controlled within 25 minutes. When it ended, even the referee found it unbelievable.

“The result of this match is announced—the Finance Department wins!”

The referee declared loudly.

The cheers in the audience reached their peak at this moment. Contrary to the gloom on Xiao Qi’s face, Huo Yichen’s teammates cheered loudly and hugged to celebrate their victory. The most important protagonist was walking towards the audience.

Huo Yichen strode up the stairs in a few quick steps and arrived beside Murong Qiao.

At this moment, many people had already started to leave, so Yang Xin tactfully moved aside and gave the space beside Murong Qiao to Huo Yichen.

“You’re sweating so much. Be careful not to catch a cold.” Murong Qiao was helpless.

She took the towel from Huo Yichen’s hand and carefully wiped his forehead and cheeks. Then, she wiped the sweat off his neck.

It was almost evening, and the temperature had dropped. Murong Qiao was a little worried when she saw Huo Yichen sweating so much during the game.

Huo Yichen leaned over. “I won’t.”

His tone was light and a little gentle. It was rare for him to be obedient. He did not look as domineering and fierce as on the court at all.

He was a little like a large dog that only obeyed its master…

Yang Xin, who was sitting not far away, suddenly had such an evaluation in her heart, but she didn’t dare to utter it.

Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen didn’t say anything. One wiped and the other remained silent. The atmosphere was heartwarming.

Unfortunately, someone still interrupted this scene.

“Murong Qiao.”

Murong Qiao’s hand stopped. She instinctively looked in the direction of the voice and saw Murong Chuan standing at the entrance of the audience.

Perhaps she was dreaming?
