Chapter 26 Intramural Basketball Game I had lunch at Uncle Liu's house and drank a small glass of white wine. If it were my old body, this amount wouldn't have been a big deal, but it's obviously not the case now. I didn't eat much but I felt a little drunk. I slept in the two children's room. Before I fell asleep, I heard Aunt Liu blaming Uncle Liu. "Why do you insist on making him drink liquor when he's a high school student? Don't you have anywhere else to show off? If you want to drink, go to the army, don't drink at home and make people angry." "I forgot about that. I thought Angkor's children would be able to drink a lot. Who knows?" Uncle Liu's voice sounded a little regretful and a little stubborn. There was a "slap" sound, and Aunt Liu slapped Uncle Liu on the shoulder. "Xiao Yu is a high school student, not yet an adult. I don't even know if he has drunk before. High school is an important time. What if he gets drunk? How are you going to explain to Brother Wu and Sister-in-law?" Uncle Liu didn't say anything else. Wu Xianyu couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep. Wu Xianyu slept until the sun set. He rubbed his head and climbed out of bed. He felt a little dizzy, but not in pain. The room was so quiet that it was a bit suffocating.
At this time, the door made a noise, breaking the silence. Uncle Liu's two children, Dongdong and Yanyan, stuck their heads in. Seeing that Wu Xianyu had woken up, they walked in with a smile and sat next to Wu Xianyu. "Brother Yu, my dad was beaten by my mom. She's been talking about it for the whole afternoon. You can go and take a look." Wu Xianyu got out of bed and came to the living room. Seeing Wu Xianyu coming, Uncle Liu's frown relaxed immediately and he put out the cigarette in his hand. "Finally you woke up. I was confused too. How old are you and I let you drink?" Wu Xianyu sat on the sofa and drank a sip of water "I didn't expect that. I've drunk beer before and didn't feel anything. Who knew that drinking liquor wouldn't work?" "Beer is nothing, it's just a drink. Wait until you graduate from high school before drinking. Do you want to eat something? You didn't eat much at noon." Uncle Liu first expressed disdain for beer, but soon remembered that Wu Xianyu had not eaten much at noon, so he asked again. Wu Xianyu waved his hand. "I don't have much appetite for the moment. Don't worry, uncle. I have a lot of dumplings at home. They were made by my classmate's mother. I can cook some for myself when I'm hungry in the evening." When Uncle Liu heard Wu Xianyu mention Lin Miaomiao's parents, a light flashed in his eyes. He sat next to Wu Xianyu and his tone was full of gossip. "Xiao Yu, tell me, do you have any thoughts about that little girl?" "Idea? What idea?" Wu Xianyu was a little slow to react, so he asked back, scratched his head, and saw the smile on Uncle Liu's face before he reacted. "Oh! You mean that kind of thought? Uh, I don't know. I just think we can play together. She has a good temper." "tsk" Uncle Liu sighed, feeling a little sorry for Wu Xianyu's lack of intelligence. He was now very confident in Wu Xianyu's performance, and the only thing he was worried about was his family and career. He didn't plan to send Wu Xianyu to the army, after all, every soldier goes in with the belief of sacrificing for the country. But Wu Xianyu could not be sacrificed. The old Wu couple were orphans. If their only bloodline was sacrificed, their family line would be truly extinct. Uncle Liu didn't dare to think about how he would face them a hundred years later if Wu Xianyu really died. After thinking about it, Lao Liu reminded Wu Xianyu "Don't be in a hurry to find a partner now. Wait until college to find one. If you find one, remember to bring him back to show me and your aunt." "Then I will definitely bring it to you to see. An ugly bride must always meet her parents, but it's still early now and I don't have any idea about these things. Let's just let nature take its course." "Yes, yes, let it be." Uncle Liu really likes the saying "The ugly daughter-in-law has to meet the parents" and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were filled with a smile. After drinking a few cups of tea and seeing that it was getting dark, Wu Xianyu did not stay long and returned home with the old hen soup that his aunt had stewed all afternoon.
After returning home, drinking the chicken soup and eating the stewed chicken with the meat and bones separated, Wu Xianyu washed the thermos and prepared to send it back next time. On the fifth day of the holiday, the class group gradually became quiet. Everyone probably started to make up their homework. Wu Xianyu went to a wild fishing spot again. This time, because Lin Miaomiao was not there, he had a good harvest. There were abundant aquatic plants and many black fish. He caught a lot in a day. Wu Xianyu kept the three biggest ones and sent them to the fisherman's house. They had just returned from a trip and forced Wu Xianyu to stay for dinner. The two families were not far away, so Wu Xianyu stayed. After dinner, Wu Xianyu walked slowly back home in the evening breeze. His current life was what he had always dreamed of, but he also felt deeper needs. A home alone was still a little too quiet, and he wanted to go back to school. With this mentality, he rested for two days at home. On the afternoon of the second day, he returned to school again. Hearing the hustle and bustle around him, Wu Xianyu felt that his dry soul was gradually coming alive. The next morning when collecting homework, Lin Miaomiao turned around with a look of relief. "Luckily I have you. You finished my homework early and played for six whole days. I can't believe it. By the end of the game I felt like I had nothing to do and wanted to go back to school." "Don't praise me, just give me a thank you gift." Wu Xianyu was free now and was watching the various things happening in the classroom. The classroom was noisy at this time. Class representatives from various subjects were walking around the class collecting homework. If they saw students who had not finished writing, they would stand aside to supervise. Some class representatives were so anxious that they would directly pull out a piece of homework and ask students to copy it quickly. Some are ruthless and refuse to allow students to copy no matter what. The small classroom is filled with all kinds of life. Wu Xianyu looked at Lin Miaomiao. He felt that she seemed to have changed for some reason, but after observing her for a while, he found no change, except that her short hair had become a little longer. Then he looked at Jiang Tianhao who had been looking at Deng Xiaoqi. Seeing that he was distracted, Wu Xianyu stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. "Wake up, what are you looking at? Those belong to others. It's impolite to look at them again." Jiang Tianhao was awakened, and after hearing Wu Xianyu's words, he waved his hand in dissatisfaction. "How come it belongs to someone else? Qian Sanyi is not with Deng Xiaoqi, so I still have a chance." "How do you know you still have a chance?" Wu Xianyu really couldn't understand the train of thought of these bootlickers. Couldn't they see such an obvious fishing technique, pulling and releasing, and giving some sweet treats from time to time. Jiang Tianhao looked around and waved mysteriously to Wu Xianyu, asking him to listen over. "During the holidays, Deng Xiaoqi and her mother came to our restaurant for dinner and took the initiative to talk to me, smiling. Tell me if I still have a chance." "hiss-" Hearing Jiang Tianhao's words, Wu Xianyu took a breath of cold air. Self-attack strategy is so terrifying. "So what are you going to do? Qian Sanyi has a big advantage right now. I saw Deng Xiaoqi talking and laughing with him." Since they were all here to watch the fun, Wu Xianyu didn't care. "I plan to start with the basketball team. Lao Zhao told me that he couldn't persuade Qian Sanyi and he has already gone to ask the principal to move. It's been a holiday and I think there will be results soon. If he quits the basketball club in front of Deng Xiaoqi, it should be a blow to him." Wu Xianyu curled his lips when he heard this plan. Ideals are full of hope, but reality is very skinny. The reality is that during the break, the principal and Lao Zhao came to the basketball hall to talk to Qian Sanyi. As a result, because Deng Xiaoqi was there, Qian Sanyi firmly rejected the principal's suggestion that he quit the basketball club and threatened the principal instead. "If you don't let me join the basketball team, I won't go to the math competition next month either." This sentence blocked all the principal's words. He looked at Qian San with a twisted expression for half a day. The gray-haired principal Xie Weizhou could only say "It's up to you, just take care of yourself" Jiang Tianhao in the stadium saw Qian Sanyi coming back safe and sound, and said "huh" unhappily. He asked his teammates to change the training method. There would be an intra-school competition next week, and he had great ambitions.
After the break, Jiang Tianhao returned to the classroom. Wu Xianyu saw that he had a sullen face and knew the result. He made a mocking expression. "Is it that things didn't go the way you expected?" Jiang Tianhao turned his head away and didn't want to answer. Seeing him like this, Wu Xianyu didn't want to get bored and waited for the bell to ring. After the holiday, Lin Miaomiao's studies became visibly more stable, but her personality also became changeable. Sometimes she was irritable, and sometimes she was depressed. She seemed to treat Wu Xianyu as a punching bag. She would argue with him when she was in a bad mood. Naturally, she lost the game. But Lin Miaomiao's main goal was to win by quantity. After venting her emotions, she threw Wu Xianyu aside and ignored him, which was quite like a scumbag. Because of the National Day holiday, classes this time started for two consecutive weeks. In order to avoid too many complaints from everyone, elite high school basketball games were held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. This gave Lin Miaomiao a place to vent her emotions. She sat next to Deng Xiaoqi and listened to her cheering for Qian Sanyi, while she cheered for Jiang Tianhao. On the surface, it was for fairness, but in fact, Wu Xianyu guessed that it was because Lin Miaomiao was unhappy with Deng Xiaoqi's behavior of treating her as a transaction. The relationship between the two is not as good as before, but Deng Xiaoqi didn't think much about it. After all, everyone can see how hard Lin Miaomiao studies. It's no problem if her relationship with her best friend becomes a little distant because of studying. Today is Sunday and also the last game. The freshmen will play against the juniors, and whoever wins will be the first place. Currently, the freshmen team is leading, but the score is very close, and no one knows who the champion will be until the last second. "Qian Sanyi! Come on!!" Deng Xiaoqi stood at the front of the audience, shouting with her hands like trumpets. Qian Sanyi didn't know if he heard it, but he made an extreme three-pointer to help the team get back three points. After a quick glance at Deng Xiaoqi, Qian Sanyi quickly retracted his gaze, feeling even more motivated. "Jiang Tianhao! Come on!" Lin Miaomiao also shouted out something. After three consecutive days of competition, she had almost vented her emotions, so her cheering for Jiang Tianhao was a bit perfunctory. After shouting, he turned around and looked at Wu Xianyu "Xianyu, do you think Haozi and the others can win?" "I don't know. I don't play basketball either." Wu Xianyu was holding a cell phone, supporting his chin with one hand and swiping the phone. Seeing him looking at his phone, Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but stretching her neck to look at Wu Xianyu's phone. Looking at the back of the head that suddenly appeared in front of him, and the white neck hidden under the short hair, Wu Xianyu's hand trembled. "What are you looking at? Why are they all fish? They are not caught by you. What else can you do now except envy?" "It's just a visual feast. I have two weeks of classes this time, so it's good to watch it if I can't go fishing." "You are hopeless" Lin Miaomiao left this judgment and returned to her seat, leaving only a scent of fragrance lingering at Wu Xianyu's nose. Wu Xianyu didn't have the heart to look at his phone for a moment. He put it away, yawned, and watched the game below. There was not much time left, only one minute left, and the first-year basketball team was currently leading by three points. The senior year basketball team was also in a panic at this time. Even Wu Xianyu, a layman, could see that the coordination of those senior year students was problematic and their movements became irregular. Jiang Tianhao was nearly knocked out, but being experienced, he immediately threw the ball in the direction of his teammates and was able to stabilize himself. After standing firm, he found that the ball he threw was caught by Qian Sanyi. Pursing his lips and wiping his sweat, Jiang Tianhao continued running. Qian Sanyi got the ball and Deng Xiaoqi's voice of encouragement was heard. He felt that this was his glorious moment. He seized an opportunity and did not shoot the three-pointer he was good at, but broke into the inside and tried to slam dunk. However, someone's hands were not so clean, and while Qian Sanyi was jumping with his body still in the air, as if trying to block the ball, a slap changed the direction of Qian Sanyi's landing. Landing at this angle, the best injury would be a temporary pain in the buttocks, or a serious fracture of the coccyx. At the critical moment, Jiang Tianhao did not hesitate and rushed to Qian Sanyi to catch him, but he was still a step too slow and Qian Sanyi fell heavily.
"Bang, ah!" The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and screams of pain rang out. People in the stands stood up, and Deng Xiaoqi screamed. “Qian Sanyi!!” After shouting, he ran towards the basketball court. Lin Miaomiao looked confused and turned to ask Wu Xianyu "What happened? Did someone scream just now?" "Let's go down and take a look first. I think the voice sounds like Haozi's." Wu Xianyu did not continue to sit in the audience, but ran towards the basketball court with Lin Miaomiao. When they arrived at the scene, there was already a circle of people surrounding them, but Deng Xiaoqi did not squeeze in. Wu Xianyu glanced at her and squeezed in, only to find that it was Jiang Tianhao who was holding his legs with a ferocious look on his face, and Qian Sanyi was standing aside, at a loss. The coach stopped everyone from helping Jiang Tianhao up. "Don't touch Haozi. I've called the school doctor and he'll be there soon." As soon as the words fell, the school doctor came to the basketball hall with a medical box and gave a preliminary diagnosis and heaved a sigh of relief. "It's not a big problem. It's probably not a bone problem. Two classmates, come and help carry him to the infirmary." Wu Xianyu did not slack off at this time and walked up consciously "I'm Haozi, let me do it so I can explain it to the teacher later." While speaking, he stopped Qian Sanyi from helping and pointed to the game time. "The game isn't over yet, you have to stay" After saying that, without waiting for the other party to react, Wu Xianyu and Sun Chuan directly carried Jiang Tianhao on the left and right and walked towards the basketball hall. Lin Miaomiao followed immediately. Although Haozi was a bootlicker, they were still friends, so it was time to go and take a look. Qian Sanyi was a little silent as he watched the people walking away. Then a voice came "Are you OK?" Qian Sanyi looked at Deng Xiaoqi who was concerned about him and put on a smile. "fine" Hearing that Qian Sanyi was fine, Deng Xiaoqi lowered her head and lowered her voice. "Well, I went to see Haozi. When I was in the stands, I saw that he seemed to be injured in trying to catch you." (End of this chapter)
