Chapter 372: Chapter 367: Return to the Basketball Team
Hearing Mu Jiawen’s response, Qi Lihong lowered her head and pursed her lips, remaining silent for quite a while.
Mu Jiawen saw that she wasn’t speaking and did not ask any more, turning her head back to her book.
“Um, senior…”
The silence between the two was broken by a voice, causing both to look up simultaneously at the two girls standing at the cash register.
They didn’t know which one of them the girl was addressing, so they just looked on without saying a word.
“You say it.”
The girl with the long face nudged the petite girl with ear-length hair and a round face in front of her, who then turned red and stamred, “Senior, we, we are from Class Three of the Computer Science departnt, freshman year, and we’d like to ask if you could allow Senior Jiang to continue to stay on the basketball team?”
Continue to stay on the basketball team?
Jiang Yan was usually so busy; he didn’t practice much, only cramming before a ga to play a match and sync up with his teammates, and then he’d compete the next day or even the sa day.
But he seed to have a natural knack for basketball; the ball did whatever he wanted in his hands, and his shooting was incredibly accurate.
So whenever there was a ga, his departnt would make sure to call on him. But it had been nearly two months since he last participated in a ga.
Mu Jiawen wasn’t aware of these matters, she narrowed her eyes slightly, a bit irritated, “Whether he wants to stay on the basketball team is his own business, and it’s none of my concern.”
Seeing Mu Jiawen’s cold expression, the round-faced girl was at a loss for words.
The long-faced girl behind her spoke up, “Isn’t it unreasonable for you to say that, senior? So have said that Senior Jiang left the basketball team because his girlfriend didn’t want him to play. It’s because we all cheered for him, and that made you unhappy, right? You’re really selfish, only thinking about yourself without considering the honor of our Computer Science departnt, aren’t you?”
After she finished speaking, even Qi Lihong couldn’t help but frown deeply.
Mu Jiawen snapped her book shut with a scoff, “What do I care about your Computer Science departnt’s honor? I’m not from your departnt.”
Two girls: …
It seed that what the senior said was right; Senior Jiang’s girlfriend, relying on her pretty face, really was unreasonable.
“But your words have reminded . Since Jiang Yan is so good at basketball, maybe he should join our Physics departnt’s basketball team.”
The two girls were dumbfounded upon hearing this, thinking how… how could this be?
Mu Jiawen, however, paid them no mind and pulled out her phone to call Jiang Yan, saying concisely, “Co down.”
Soon after, rapid footsteps ca from the stairs on the second floor, and Jiang Yan approached Mu Jiawen with long strides, asking, “What’s up?”
“Nothing much, just wondering if you’d like to join our Physics departnt’s basketball team?”
After Mu Jiawen said this, she thought to herself that she had heard that inviting ringers to play in gas was allowed. She might not understand much about basketball or football, but it seed to her that it should be fine.
Without waiting for Jiang Yan to reply, she dialed Shen ngfei’s number and asked, “Can Jiang Yan join the Physics departnt’s basketball team?”
Shen ngfei: “… What are you talking about?”
“Who does the Physics departnt play against in next week’s basketball match?”
“Against… Computer Science.”
Mu Jiawen’s eyes narrowed, what a coincidence!
She turned to Jiang Yan and asked, “You’re willing, right?”
Jiang Yan: …
He glanced at the two girls, guessing what was going on.
He nodded, “Just have Shen ngfei talk to them, that’d be fine.”
ngfei Shen had already heard Jiang Yan’s words and was so shocked that he jumped up from the bed. However, because the wooden bed was on the upper bunk, his head went straight into the ceiling and with a thud, he fell back onto the bed.
Clutching his head and grimacing in pain, ngfei still managed to confirm with Mu Jiawen, “Are you sure, Jiang Yan is going to join our basketball team?”
“Just say whether it’s possible or not?”
“Waste… Of course it’s possible. Tell him to wait, I’m notifying the others right now.”
ngfei ended the call ecstatically and began sending ssages to the other mbers of the Physics Departnt basketball team one by one.
anwhile, after hanging up, Mu Jiawen looked emotionlessly at the two girls standing in front of the cash register, who obviously hadn’t realized what was happening yet.
Originally, their goal was to get Jiang Yan back on the basketball team, and it seed like he was back, but now it had nothing to do with their Computer Science Departnt.
How did this happen?
The round-faced girl swallowed nervously with a sense of guilt and anxiety, glanced at Jiang Yan, and silently retreated several steps, not daring to speak.
The long-faced girl finally reacted and looked at Jiang Yan angrily, “Senior Jiang, have you forgotten that you belong to the Computer Science Departnt?”
Jiang Yan frowned impatiently, thinking that this year’s freshn were really bold. Not only did they block him, but they even dared to confront Jiajia. Had they all gone crazy?
He didn’t plan to pay them any mind and reached out to pull Mu Jiawen to leave, but they were stopped by Qi Lihong.
She glanced at the long-faced girl and said to Jiang Yan, “She just said that soone told them you quit the basketball team because of Jiawen.”
Told by soone?
Jiang Yan looked at the two girls, “Who told you that?”
The two girls exchanged looks, seemingly starting to understand they had been used as pawns.
“It was a senior student, we don’t know her exact na. There was a group of us, and after hearing the rumors, everyone was pretty angry. So even wanted to go to the girls’ dormitory to find… to find Mu…”
The round-faced girl’s voice trailed off. They happened to be out buying things and passed the computer store where Mu Jiawen was sitting, and that’s when they mustered the courage to approach her.
No, to be precise, the long-faced girl forcefully dragged her over, but once there, she didn’t do the talking herself and made the round-faced girl speak first.
Thinking of this, the round-faced girl glared at her companion resentfully and turned to leave.
The long-faced girl hurried to keep up.
As Jiang Yan watched the two disappear into the distance with hurried steps, his expression turned grim.
Although he had no evidence, he could almost guess who the “senior” they ntioned, the one stirring the pot, was.
It had to be either Minhong Weng or Zhang Ting. Besides these two, others generally didn’t harbor ill will towards Jiawen.
Fortunately, their dorm was very united. If the first-year students went looking for trouble in the second-years’ dorm, Yuanyuan Ding alone could overpower them with words alone, so there wasn’t much to worry about.
The two walked back to the school side by side, with Mu Jiawen turning to look at him, seemingly in high spirits, “Stop guessing who it was. I won’t care about such childish sches. As for you, I hope to see you next week on the basketball court making a strong coback and crushing those from the Computer Science under your feet.”
Jiang Yan: ….
“Your choice of words is inappropriate. What do you an ‘making a strong coback’? Does my prowess need a coback?”
Basketball was just a form of entertainnt for him, and he didn’t care which team he joined—as long as he got to play, winning or losing didn’t matter.
But while he was indifferent, everyone else cared!
Especially when the Computer Science basketball team saw Jiang Yan standing with the Physics Departnt’s team, they were all stunned.
Are you fucking standing on the wrong side?
The two girls who had caused the trouble went back and kept their mouths shut tight, not daring to say a word, so it wasn’t until Jiang Yan changed his clothes and stood on the court that the others ca to know which team he was representing that day.
