Yang Baishan couldn’t tolerate it.
In Yang Baishan’s view, Bai Yue’er’s words were simply a challenge to his soccer skills, an outright insult.
He couldn’t hold back any longer. “Damn it, who told you I would lose!”
Yang Baishan’s outburst took everyone by surprise.
Even Bai Yue’er on the other end of the phone was stunned.
After a while, Bai Yue’er asked in astonishnt, “Who’s talking? Shi Xiangming, did you put the call on speaker?”
When Yang Baishan shouted, Jin Haonan already knew things were going south, but he didn’t stop him because Bai Yue’er’s words had also made him quite upset.
What did she an by “go watch you lose”?
What made Bai Yue’er think their engineering departnt would lose?
This lack of trust was simply infuriating.
Shi Xiangming had a sense of throwing caution to the wind. He shouted into the phone, “Yes, I put it on speaker because none of us can understand why you wouldn’t co to watch our ga.”
The phone fell silent.
So silent that Shi Xiangming wondered if the call had been disconnected.
Then Bai Yue’er spoke.
“Shi Xiangming, are you still there?”
“Yes.”
Just having lost his temper in front of his roommates, Shi Xiangming deliberately put on a stern face, adopting a cold deanor.
Bai Yue’er softly asked, “Is everyone in your dorm going to participate in this afternoon’s soccer match?”
“Of course, we’re all participating!”
After hearing his response, the phone call fell silent again.
The people in dorm 412 were a bit puzzled, not knowing what was going on.
Then suddenly, they heard Bai Yue’er say, “I’m sorry, I was too tired this afternoon and took a nap. I overslept and didn’t an to miss your match. I apologize, and I hope you’re not mad at , okay?”
Bai Yue’er’s sweet voice and her apologetic words instantly lted the ice in the hearts of the people in dorm 412.
Even Yang Baishan, who had just yelled at her, wasn’t angry anymore. He even showed an apologetic expression on his face.
It turned out Bai Yue’er had overslept and couldn’t make it, rather than thinking they would lose and looking down on them.
These are two completely different reasons.
For the forr, the people in dorm 412 naturally had no objections. After all, anyone could have sothing co up and not have ti.
Yang Baishan directly said into the phone, “I’m sorry, Bai Yue’er. I was too emotional. I shouldn’t have yelled at you without knowing the situation.”
Bai Yue’er wasn’t angry at all and very graciously said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s my fault. I should have gone to watch your match and cheered you on. As long as you’re not mad at .”
“Of course not!” Yang Baishan quickly replied.
Jin Haonan also chid in, “Bai Yue’er, I’m sorry. Old Yang was too emotional just now and misspoke. Don’t mind him.”
Bai Yue’er imdiately said, “Is that you, brother Hao? It’s such a pity we didn’t get to see you guys play soccer this afternoon. Will there be more matches? I’ll definitely co and cheer for you.”
With just one “brother Hao,” Jin Haonan’s mouth curled into a smile, feeling very pleased.
Jin Haonan replied with a smile, “Bai Yue’er, Dong Jun is treating us to dinner tonight. Do you want to co along?”
At first, Shi Xiangming was very angry because he felt that Bai Yue’er was disrespecting him in front of his roommates.
It was one thing to throw a fit in private, but to do so in front of his roommates was unacceptable to him, as he cared a lot about saving face.
But now, Bai Yue’er’s words had completely turned the situation around.
All of his roommates were happy.
This made him feel like he had regained his face.
Especially that “brother Hao” from Bai Yue’er, which made him overjoyed.
Bai Yue’er and Jin Haonan weren’t that familiar, so why would she call him “brother Hao”? It was obviously out of respect for him.
If she respected him enough to call Jin Haonan “brother Hao,” did their relationship even need to be questioned?
At this mont, Shi Xiangming felt that he had both face and content, and he was very happy.
Upon hearing Jin Haonan’s words, he quickly added, “Yeah, Yue’er, we won the ga today, and Dong Jun is treating us to dinner. Do you want to co and join us?”
Bai Yue’er cheerfully replied, “Sure, I haven’t eaten yet anyway. I’ll co over and grab a al. Hehe, the class monitor won’t be mad, right?”
Jin Haonan, feeling even more cheerful seeing Bai Yue’er being so gracious, patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, with our sharpshooter Yang Baishan here, as long as Dong Jun wants to see us win, he wouldn’t dare say a word against it.”
Yang Baishan, who was dubbed the sharpshooter, was in high spirits and chid in, “Heh heh, Bai Yue’er, don’t worry, with here, you can eat to your heart’s content.”
Bai Yue’er laughed at this, her laughter clear and lodious like silver bells.
Hearing this made the hearts of the 412 roommates itch with envy.
“Alright, I’ll get ready and co over in a bit.”
“Okay, Yue’er, I’ll text you the address later. Talk to you soon.” Shi Xiangming said before hanging up the phone.
Facing his roommates again, Shi Xiangming was full of confidence, his face beaming with a smile.
Liu Zhihao, who had been silent, couldn’t help but speak up after the call ended, “I think Bai Yue’er is really easygoing. Just now, Old Yang was shouting at her. If it were any other girl, she would have been angry. But not only was she not angry, she even apologized to us. She’s truly a good-tempered girl.”
These words received nods of agreent from the others.
Liu Zhihao continued, “Old Shi, you always say that Bai Yue’er gets inexplicably angry, but now I’m starting to suspect that maybe the problem is with you.”
Wang Juncai agreed heartily, “I think Old Liu is right. Bai Yue’er seems very magnanimous and doesn’t seem like soone who gets angry easily. It must be sothing you’re doing wrong that’s making her upset.”
Jin Haonan and Yang Baishan nodded in agreent.
Only Xu Xiuwen did not react.
However, the others were not paying attention to him.
Upon hearing his roommates’ comnts, Shi Xiangming couldn’t help but wonder if it was his own fault for always upsetting Yue’er. Did he often say the wrong things?
He began to reflect on what he might have said wrong in the past.
Xu Xiuwen had sweated a bit during pre-match training and in the ga, so he also took a shower.
By the ti everyone finished showering and arrived at the restaurant Dong Jun ntioned, it was already an hour later.
The restaurant Dong Jun ntioned was a very famous one just outside North Street, which always had a bustling business.
Since Dong Jun arrived early, he booked the largest private room and ordered so dishes while waiting for the others.
The boys arrived at the private room one after another.
When the roommates from room 412 arrived, besides them and four other classmates from their hotown, all the other boys were already present.
As soon as Shi Xiangming entered the private room, he looked around for soone.
After everyone had taken their seats.
Dong Jun recalled Shi Xiangming’s actions just now and curiously asked, “Who were you looking for earlier?”
“I was checking to see if Yue’er had arrived.”
“Bai Yue’er?” Dong Jun was stunned. “How could she possibly co?”
Shi Xiangming chuckled.
Jin Haonan was about to explain, but Yang Baishan jumped in first and said, “We just called Bai Yue’er, and she said she’d co by to grab a bite. You don’t mind, do you, class monitor?”
Dong Jun suddenly understood and smiled, saying, “It’s no problem at all. One more person just ans an extra pair of chopsticks. She can co as she pleases.”
Just as he finished speaking, the sliding door of the private room was opened again.
