Chapter 99 Rivals Meet but Don't Recognize Each Other
Later, it seemed that after the girl's repeated requests, the boy couldn't resist her coquettish plea, even though he looked completely unwilling.
He walked towards Cui Yu'an, flashing his signature smile as he greeted him.
"Hello! My name is Song Bojian, and I'm the captain of the team below." He pointed to the team that was resting below.
Once Cui Yu'an was certain, he continued, "I've seen you've been watching here for a long time, so I suppose you're also very interested in basketball. Would you like to join our basketball team?"
Cui Yu'an stared at the boy who had suddenly appeared, finding him rather strange. He was still trying to figure out which boy had caused his little girl to act that way these past few days.
Once he found out who it was, he wanted to skin that person alive and tear out their tendons to see what made them superior to him.
Then this guy popped up and invited him to join the basketball team?! Cui Yu'an was about to refuse when he suddenly seemed to remember something.
He grinned wickedly, then looked pitifully at the person who had invited him and said, "I'm quite interested in basketball, but I'm not very good at it. Can I still join? I'll study hard!"
After saying that, Cui Yu'an looked at him pitifully again. Song Bohuai had initially hesitated because he knew Cui Yu'an couldn't play basketball, and because of the girl who was trying to charm him, but when Cui Yu'an looked at him so pitifully...
He couldn't refuse, so he said something he would regret for the rest of his life.
"It's okay, I'll teach you."
"Really? Thank you so much! You're a good person!" Cui Yu'an exclaimed excitedly, grabbing Song Bohuai's hand to express her gratitude.
"Then let's go practice! I can't wait!" Cui Yu'an said, accepting Song Bohuai's affirmative reply. He wanted to drag him to the basketball team so he could get to know the players and find out who it was.
"No rush, no rush~ It's break time now, let's rest for a bit before we go."
Song Bohuai stopped Cui Yu'an, who was heading towards the basketball court. Cui Yu'an thought for a moment and decided there was no rush. Since the man had said so, he might as well wait.
He sat down again, observing everyone on the basketball court, trying to figure out what type of girl Yufei would like.
"From today onwards, we're on the same team. I also hope we can be friends. Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Song Bohuai, a student in Class 7 of the first year of high school. What's yours?"
"Cui Yu'an, a student in Class 3, Grade 1," Cui Yu'an replied as if he had no energy left.
"Then we're not far apart anymore, we can play together after class! By the way, this is my childhood friend, we've been playing together since we were little..."
Before Song Bohuai could finish speaking, the girl next to him interrupted him.
"Sister! Hello, my name is Yang Yaxin, I'm also a student in Class 7 of the first year of high school, and Song Bohuai is my brother," Yang Yaxin said to Cui Yu'an, her face flushed.
"Oh!" Cui Yu'an's good manners allowed him to respond to the girl's introduction.
"Then we'll be good friends from now on," the girl said nervously, looking at Cui Yu'an.
When Cui Yu'an saw the disappointed look in Song Bohuai's eyes, who had just greeted him, he couldn't help but find it amusing. Was this someone helping the girl he liked pursue a boy?
What a cowardly man! If it were his little girl, he would break that guy's legs! He wouldn't want his little girl to get hurt, but he would let her know how bad her taste is, hmph!
"Oh! I don't have any hobbies that allow me to be good friends with girls! Does that mean I can play basketball?"
Cui Yu'an watched as the students on the basketball court started moving around, assuming their break was over, and ignored the two people who were either real siblings or lovers.
Song Bohuai kept his promise and did his best to teach Cui Yu'an how to play basketball. But could someone tell him that this person didn't exercise before? How come he doesn't have any basic basketball skills at all!
Song Bohuai was teaching Cui Yu'an until he looked utterly hopeless. The only thing that made him happy was that his younger sister Ya Xin had been coming to watch him play basketball every day lately.
Although it wasn't to see him T^T His younger sister, Ya Xin, used to complain about the smell of sweat on the basketball court, and he always had to beg and promise her things before she'd agree to come.
He's here almost every day now, all for this pretty boy. Song Bohuai's eyes darkened. What's so great about this pretty boy?!
He's been teaching Ya Xin how to dribble for three days, and she's already staring at him with wide eyes? This pretty boy is just a little more refined in appearance, has longer eyelashes, and a better overall demeanor.
But why does a man need to be so refined?! Does he have his strong physique? Does he have his eight-pack abs? Little Greyhound! He'll prove to his sister Ya Xin that he's better than her.
"Brother Song, Brother Cui, have some water!" Yang Yaxin handed two bottles of water and two towels to Song Bohuai and Cui Yu'an with great anticipation.
Song Bohuai smiled brightly as he took the water bottle and towel from Yang Yaxin and wiped the sweat from his forehead, drawing envious glances from the girls around him.
"Wow, so handsome!" a few girls whispered nearby.
This satisfied Yang Yaxin's vanity, and she straightened her back. However, Cui Yu'an looked at the towel in Yang Yaxin's hand but didn't reach out to take it. Instead, he stared at it for a while.
He walked over to the side, took out a bottle of water from his gym bag, and started drinking. Then he took out a towel from his backpack and wiped the sweat from his brow.
Yang Yaxin tugged at Song Bohuai, gesturing for him to sit down. She followed him and looked at Cui Yu'an, noticing beads of sweat still clinging to his thick, long eyelashes.
Just like the morning dew, Yang Yaxin thought, how could there be such a handsome person in the world, like the prince in the fairy tales she had read since she was a child?
She had been waiting for her prince to appear. On the day she finally gave in to Song Bohuai's request to watch him play basketball, she saw him sitting in the stands, lost in thought.
She felt that the prince she had been waiting for had finally appeared, but right now her prince seemed a bit aloof, keeping her at arm's length.
It's alright! Yang Yaxin seemed to have seen a saying before: "Beneath the coldest iceberg lies a blazing fire." As long as she could melt his iceberg, she believed all his affection would belong to her!
She gave the boy a thorough once-over! She was determined to have this handsome man!
"That's enough for today, class is about to start," Cui Yu'an said to Song Bohuai, glancing at his watch and feeling he had rested enough.
Song Bohuai nodded. "Okay! Let's go back together then. I'll tell you about tomorrow's plans on the way."
Cui Yu'an nodded, and the three of them returned to the teaching building together.
"Okay! Tomorrow at the same time, I'll teach you the three-step layup. I just briefly explained the principle to you; you can try to understand it on your own first."
After saying goodbye to Cui Yu'an, Song Bohuai returned to his classroom, and Cui Yu'an also went back to her classroom.
Sitting in his seat, Cui Yu'an poked Yufei's back with his finger. Yufei was tutoring a classmate and didn't notice Cui Yu'an's little gesture.
Cui Yu'an looked aggrieved, pouting as she leaned on the table and looked at Yufei.
