Jian Ran: “…”

Why did he ask it so cheaply though? Is it that he wasn’t teased that much or that hard before now?

However, once bitten, twice shy. Jian Ran is not what he used to be and had learned to fight back.

“I’ll give it, I’ll give it!” Jian Ran kicked the cart to Ren Qinglin’s side. “If it isn’t enough, I will go to the cafeteria and buy you another hundred bowls so you can eat ice powder from the seniors every day. Are you happy?”

Ren Qinglin suppressed a smile: “Happy.”

Jian Ran didn’t have enough control to hold back a “fuck”. “Ren Qinglin, you are really poisonous.”

As Ren Qinglin was about to speak, he suddenly seemed to have seen something. His eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, “Jian Ran—”

Jian Ran turned his head instinctively and saw an orange sphere flying toward his head. Its speed was so fast that he had no time to react.

Just when he thought he was about to get hit on his head, Ren Qinglin stretched out his hand and quickly slapped the basketball back.

A boy caught the ball. He looked at Ren Qinglin twice and then smiled apologetically at Jian Ran: “Jian Ran, are you okay?”

Jian Ran recognized that the boy was a junior in the same college, and smiled: “It’s okay, the Senior is still playing ball when it’s this hot.”

“No way we can get into the indoor basketball arena, which is full.” The Senior said, “Do you want to play together? We have one less person.”

Jian Ran pointed to the sun above his head, “No, I really can’t stand this sun.”

“We made an appointment at the basketball court tomorrow afternoon. Come over then. It’s been a long time since I played with you.”

Jian Ran thought that he hadn’t exercised for a while, and readily agreed: “Okay, can I call Shen Zixiao and Ji Yuanxi too?”

“No problem.”

The Senior left with the ball. Jian Ran’s smile gradually disappeared, and he gave Ren Qinglin a blank look, “Now I’m not called a Senior, but by name, huh?”

Ren Qinglin was at a loss for words, “…I was in a hurry, I forgot.”

Jian Ran said stiffly, “What’s the rush. I was able to avoid the ball just now, so don’t bother yourself about it.”

You’re so tall.

Ren Qinglin coaxed him: “Yes, I know the senior is very powerful, incredibly skilled.”

Jian Ran felt that his words were strange, but with lessons learned from the past, he decided not to think about it.

“Jian Ran!” Tang Tang waved to Jian Ran on the other side of the playground, smiling brightly, “A few are missing here.”

The girl’s face was red from the sun, like a ripe apple.

Jian Ran responded, “I’ll come over.”

When passing by Ren Qinglin, he gently patted the other’s shoulder, the corners of his mouth lightly raised, “Thank you, junior.”

Ren Qinglin was stunned, feeling a little burst in his chest.

He looked down at the position of his heart and whispered: “I. Fuck…”

After the first quarter, in the afternoon, the three members of the “Insatiable Group” put on their jerseys and headed to the basketball court.

When going down the stairs, Ji Yuanxi still held a mobile phone to send messages to his girlfriend.

Shen Zixiao teased: “The last time I watched the news, it was said that a white-collar woman was playing with her mobile phone when she went downstairs and she accidentally fell down and was dead on the spot.”

Ji Yuanxi typed and didn’t look up, “Wow, it’s terrible, I’m so scared. Yeah, by the way I’ve done something to feel sorry for and I have to apologize to you.”

Jian Ran was used to it. “What, did you give my WeChat to someone else again?”

“No, I stopped doing that immoral thing a long time ago.” Ji Yuanxi smiled and said, “Just now my girlfriend asked me what I was going to do, and I said I was going to play, and she asked me if you were going together, I said yes, then she went to the Jian Ran Fan Support Club to announce it. Expect many girls in the court when you go.”

“Damn, why you didn’t say it earlier?” Shen Zixiao screamed, “I would’ve worn my black suit.”

“Wait,” Jian Ran frowned, “What did you just say?”

“‘Jian Ran Fan Support Club’. It was created last year. My girlfriend is the group leader. Now there are more than 100 people.”

Jian Ran was convinced, “These girls are idle, and there is still too little homework.”

“Not all are girls…” Ji Yuanxi looked unpredictable, “There are also a few boys.”

Shen Zixiao laughed, “Then they must have nothing to do. First of all brother Jian is straight and even if he is not, it will not be their turn. Aren’t the flowers at home fragrant, why would he go pick wild flowers.”

Ji Yuanxi was confused, “What do you mean?”

Jian Ran said coldly, “Can you not give him you dirty eyes?”

Shen Zixiao made a zipping on his mouth. Ji Yuanxi looked at him, then at Jian Ran, scratching his head with both hands.

The school’s basketball court was open to the entire school’s teachers and students when there was no competition, but the rent was relatively expensive. It cost several hundred per hour. On average, it’s acceptable for one person to score a few dozen.

There was no direct sunlight, and the air conditioner was turned on. The temperature inside the basketball hall was much lower than the outside. When Jian Ran arrived, there were already quite a few people in the audience.

Shen Zixiao felt the pressure, “Damn, people who don’t know would think that a game is being held.”

Ji Yuanxi proudly patted Jian Ran on the back, “Jian Ran, enjoy your popularity carefully. What is Ren Qinglin? He is nothing but a fart!”

Shen Zixiao looked at the girls in the audience, “Jian Ran, Tang Tang is here again. I dare to bet a cucumber with you. Three days; within three days, she will definitely confess to you.”

“No bet, I don’t need a cucumber.” Jian Ran finished speaking, and went to greet the seniors.

Probably because the rain summoning array worked, from the afternoon, the air was extremely hot and humid, with the sun hiding behind the clouds. The sky was overcast and ready to rain.

A freshman stood in military posture expressionlessly, snarling frantically in his heart, “Come on, come on! Don’t hesitate, it’s now! If it rains a second earlier, one more innocent life can be saved!”

Finally, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and then soybean sized raindrops fell from the sky and hit the ground. The instructor gave an order for the students to trot forward and take shelter from the rain in the nearest basketball court.

Ren Qinglin’s clothes were half wet, and the feeling of the camouflage clothing felt sticky on the skin. He was not in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth were tense.

“Um… Ren Qinglin, would you like a tissue?”

Ren Qinglin raised his eyelids lazily. It’s a girl from the same class.

The girl said cautiously, “Your hair is all wet, wipe it.”

Ren Qinglin refused, “No need.”

His expression was cold and his tone of voice was alienated, which made the girl’s mentality collapse a little and stay where she was at a loss.

Ren Qinglin ignored her and found a place to sit down with his roommate.

The roommate wondered: “Is this a match? Why are there so many people?”

On the court, a boy wearing a James jersey bent over and stared at the opponent who was dribbling hard; the opponent was panting, trying to make a break through, but the boy saw through it.

The boy intercepted the ball like lightning, and then shot a three-pointer with a beautiful posture.

There was a burst of screams in the audience, mixed with the names of boys.

“Ah ah ah ah ah! Jian Ran!! Jian Ran, come on!”

“Jian Ran! My sister loves you!”

Jian Ran and Shen Zixiao, who ran towards him, slapped their hands, then he lifted the hem of his shirt and wiped the sweat from his head.

Qinglin’s roommate has always been a male, but was unable to take his eyes off of Jian Ran. “This is senior Jian Ran!..He’s so fucking handsome.”

Ren Qinglin looked at the line of the boy’s waist and narrowed his eyes, “Yeah.”

The rainstorm lasted for a long time, and it didn’t stop when it was time to disband. The instructor disbanded the team, but no one could leave without an umbrella.

Jian Ran concentrated on playing the ball, and did not notice that there were a large number of juniors wearing camouflage uniforms in the audience.

After playing for almost two hours, the boys began to lose energy one after another. It just so happened that the time was almost up. The senior said, “Why don’t we stop here today?”

Everyone agreed.

Jian Ran was sweating all over and went to drink water with his two roommates.

Tang Tang stood beside him early, holding a bottle of sports drink in her hand, looking at him expectantly.

Shen Zixiao pulled Ji Yuanxi aside, and the chicken thief said: “Jian Ran, we’ll go there and wait for you.”

Jian Ran slowed down and thought that this wasn’t going to work and he had to find a chance to clarify things with her.

“Jian Ran,” Tang Tang handed him the drink, “For you, thank you for inviting me to drink milk tea last time.”

Jian Ran glanced at the classmate behind her and took the drink, “Thank you.”

He kept the drink in his hand and not taking a sip, unlocked his phone and glanced at WeChat.

【Insatiable Group】

Ke Yan: It’s raining heavily outside, are you still in the basketball court?

Ji Yuanxi: Yes, I am trapped. 【Crying】

Ke Yan: Shall I bring you an umbrella? I am in the bedroom now.

Ji Yuanxi:! ! Say I love you! !

Jian Ran: [Thank you boss.jpg]

At the same time, Tang Tang sent an invitation to him: “Jian Ran, I brought an umbrella, let’s go back together.”

Jian Ran smiled and said, “No, my roommate will pick me up.”

Tang Tang bit her lip, and plucked up the courage to say: “But I have something to say to you.”

Jian Ran was taken aback, “Then can we go out and talk?”

The two came to the side entrance of the basketball hall. The side door was not closed tightly, and the wind came in, making Jian Ran feel a bit of coolness.

Tang Tang stood before him, lowered her head, and the sound of the rain almost drowned her voice.

“Jian Ran, I…I like you.”

After a brief silence, Jian Ran sighed, “I’m sorry.”

The girl’s profile was hidden behind her long hair, “Is it me who is not good enough?”

“It has nothing to do with you.” Jian Ran said guiltily. “It’s because I don’t have any thoughts of falling in love for the time being, I’m very sorry.”

Tang Tang sniffed and smiled forcefully: “I get it, I won’t pester you anymore. Jian Ran, goodbye.”

The girl tossed her hair and left ina cool way.

Jian Ran watched her leave and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and wanted to go back, but was caught off guard to see a person standing behind him, and became so scared that he almost had a heart attack.

“Ren. Qing. Lin.” Jian Ran angrily said, “You fucker, eavesdropping on what I said?”

“I didn’t overhear, I was just passing by.” Ren Qinglin walked up to Jian Ran and looked at him with his eyes down. “Senior sister is pretty good. Why don’t you try it with her?”

Jian Ran: “None of your business.”

Ren Qinglin smiled lowly, “Is it because of me?”

He thought that the senior was going to scold him for poisonous again, but Jian Ran nodded, “Yes.”

Ren Qinglin: What did I just hear? ? ?

“Although we aren’t married physically, in the legal sense, I am a person with a spouse. It is not always good to associate with others. Therefore, I will not fall in love until I divorce you.”

Ren Qing was quiet, “Then do you want me to give you a green hat?”

“I can’t use my moral standards to restrain you.” Jian Ran shrugged, “but I strongly recommend that you explain your situation before interacting with others, and if the other party doesn’t mind, then consider the next step.”

Ren Qinglin asked: “Why don’t you explain to the senior sister clearly then?”

Jian Ran was a little angry, “You really ask a 100,000 whys. I don’t like her, and I don’t understand why she likes me. And I obviously didn’t do anything to her.”

Ren Qinglin smiled. He stood at the door, behind a hazy rain curtain, “Senior, you don’t have to do anything. As long as you stand there, many people will like you.”

Jian Ran said with disdain: “Love that only looks at the face will not last long. You can see how many divorces the entertainment industry has. Alright?”

Ren Qinglin nodded, “Senior is right.”

In the WeChat group, Ke Yan said that he had arrived and asked where Jian Ran was.

“I’m going back first.” Jian Ran said.

Ren Qinglin: “Senior brought an umbrella?”

“My roommate came to give an umbrella.”

“It must be great,” Ren Qinglin said casually, “But I don’t have a roommate to give me an umbrella.”

Jian Ran asked casually, “Would you like to go with us?”

“May I?”

“Yes, Ke Yan is small, so you can share the cover with him.”

Ren Qinglin: “…”
