Obviously, He Has a Crush on Me - Chapter 48

“I Zheng Yang, if I can afford to win, I can afford to make mistakes. It was me who committed the foul! But we won’t shoot the mouse, we will lock the victory, and let the High School Affiliated to Normal University know that whether it is the previous Xinmiao Cup or now, we will win!”

The students of No. 16 High School applauded.

Jiang Nuan let out a sigh of relief.

And Rao Can shook his head in a funny way: “This Zheng Yang is so funny, he is so righteous and awe-inspiring when he says his foul.”

The game continued, and the contest between Lu Ran and Zheng Yang was in full swing.

Jiang Nuan and the others shouted hoarsely, their vocal cords were about to break, and their throats were burning, but they couldn’t see anything else in them except for those flying figures on the court.

The score reached 67 to 68 in the last minute. The High School Affiliated to Normal University led by one point, and the No. 16 Middle School started an explosive counterattack.

Zheng Yang rushed into the camp of the High School Affiliated to Normal University with the ball and jumped high,

Seeing that they were about to dunk into the basket, He Zheng and Li Tietou jumped high and wanted to stop Zheng Yang, but their jump height was not high enough. Jiang Nuan clenched his fist so much that his fingers were about to break. Zheng Yang swept up behind him,

“Bang—” Zheng Yang’s ball was knocked off.

“It’s Lu Ran—”

A girl’s scream came from Jiang Nuan’s side, and her eardrums were about to burst.

Lu Ran took the ball straight into the position of No. 16 Middle School, Zheng Yang turned around immediately after landing, and said loudly, “Return to defense—”

However, Lu Ran dragged everyone’s attention and went straight to the opponent’s basket. Several people followed him and drove in to cut him off, but he was completely unable to stop his indomitable progress.

Jiang Nuan stopped breathing in his throat, what would Lu Ran do? Who will he pass the ball to?

In her sight, Lu Ran jumped up, and with a “bang-” sound that shook the court, he dunked the ball into the basket!

Under the backlight, a decisive and profound silhouette is formed.

“Ah-ah-“

“Lu Ran! Lu Ran!”

The high-pitched shouts were overwhelming.

Lu Ran’s only basket in this basketball game sealed their victory in the High School Affiliated to Normal University.

On the other side of No. 16 Middle School, there was silence, in stark contrast to the initial frantic cry.

Zheng Yang, some of them bowed their heads, and some were still staring at the basket.

He Zheng came to Lu Ran and raised his hand to give him a high five, but for Lu Ran, all he experienced was a one-on-one competition. He Zheng raised his hand for a long time and Lu Ran did not respond. He Zheng also Not angry, he turned around with a smile, and ran in the direction of Jiang Nuan.

“Brother Nuan! Come on!”

“For your good performance in this game! Slap you!”

She raised her hand, and before she touched He Zheng’s palm, someone lightly patted her hand, and then held her finger warmly.

It’s Lu Ran.

“Eh… Lu Ran, you are too…”

Before He Zheng could finish speaking, Lu Ran interrupted him.

“Cao Li asked you to come and gather.”

“Ah, oh…”

He Zheng took two steps and found that Lu Ran was not following. He turned around and asked, “Then why don’t you go?”

Lu Ranzheng put on his school uniform jacket and said, “I’m not from your basketball team.”

“But you are from the high school attached to our Normal University!”

After He Zheng finished speaking, Jiang Nuan pushed Lu Ran’s shoulder to push him over. But Lu Ran was very stable, she couldn’t move at all.

Jiang Nuan looked up and saw Lu Ran looking down at her.

“Come over quickly! Help, don’t let Zheng Yang and the others bully Cao Li!”

Lu Ran just left.

He and He Zheng supported Cao Li from left to right, and shook hands with Zheng Yang and the others.

“We did lose today. I also hope that the unpleasantness between our two schools about the Chunmiao Cup will end here.” Zheng Yang extended his hand to Cao Li.

Cao Li also nodded: “Sure, let’s laugh at our grievances!”

Zheng Yang glanced at Lu Ran, who had an indifferent expression, as if the victory had nothing to do with him, and said, “My brothers and I’s impression of the High School Affiliated to Normal University, to be honest, is all about reading and deteriorating limbs, and we still have self-esteem. The impression that you can’t afford to lose even if it’s too big. But you’re amazing.”

Li Tietou, who was following behind them, couldn’t help but say, “Of course, Lu Ran is the champion of the National Youth Fencing Championship! Various national professional leagues are also first-class!”

Zheng Yang was stunned for a while, then nodded and said, “So that’s the case, but we don’t know Mount Tai.”

Several girls from Sixteen Middle School, who were probably die-hard fans of their school’s basketball team, rubbed their eyes and shed tears.

Zheng Yang and his teammates walked up to them and said, “Why are you crying – since there is no eternal victory, there is no chance of eternal loss! The basketball court doesn’t believe in tears, only sweat!”

Hearing this, Cao Li, who was being held by He Zheng and Lu Ran, applauded: “Well said!”

The students from the High School Affiliated to Normal University also applauded.

Whether it was the depression on the other side or the joy and excitement on the side, they were all overwhelmed by thunderous applause.

At this time, I don’t know who said, “Run! Director Zhang is here!”

“Director Zhang? Which Director Zhang?” Jiang Nuan hadn’t reacted yet.

After all, it sounds the same whether the 16th High School or the dean of their High School Affiliated to Normal University.

“Silly girl! Run! It’s our Director Zhang!”

Rao Can dragged Jiang Nuan with his left hand, pulled Cheng Doudou with his right hand, and rushed towards the entrance of the basketball court.

A group of people is like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge, blocking them into a pile.

“What’s the matter with you—ah? Don’t go home after school, don’t do your homework, and come outside to play basketball! Do you have a lot of time!”

Jiang Nuan wanted to scold Director Zhang in his heart. He used to read comics, but now he is playing basketball. You can understand if you catch Internet cafes and play games, but exercising is a sin!

When squeezing out from the small iron gate of the basketball court, Jiang Nuan was almost squeezed out of shape, pushed by a huge force behind her, she fell forward, and staged a classic “bashing on the street” scene.

“Ah-” Jiang Nuan’s palms and knees were aching hot.

Director Zhang’s roar came from behind him, and he took several teachers of his age and caught Cao Li, who was weak in legs and feet.

What Jiang Nuan didn’t expect was that He Zheng and Li Tietou, who seemed to be very loyal to Cao Li, actually “flyed solo”! Run faster than a rabbit!

On the contrary, Lin Mixia was standing beside Cao Li, and the two of them were under fire from Director Zhang.

Out of fear for Director Zhang, the students swarmed away from Jiang Nuan.

Seeing this scene, the students of No. 16 Middle School stood on the other side of the field, stunned. After a while, Zheng Yang pointed at the way they were fleeing in a hurry, hahaha and laughed.

The friendship between Rao Can and Cheng Doudou was stronger than that of plastic flowers. They dragged her up one by one and walked forward.

Jiang Nuan felt that today was bad luck, first her nose, now her palms and knees!

But Director Zhang and his “gang” were still hunting down the escaped spectators, and they were about to fall to the back.

At this time, Jiang Nuan only felt that something was wrapping around her legs and shoulders, and her body suddenly flew into the air, and she heard the exclamations of Cheng Doudou and Rao Can.

“What are you doing!” Lu Ran’s cold voice sounded, refreshing his mind.

Jiang Nuan looked up and saw Lu Ran’s chin. She suddenly realized that she was being held by Lu Ran!

Her body swayed as Lu Ran ran, and from Lu Ran’s shoulder, she could see Rao Can and Cheng Doudou who were out of breath.

Lu Ran ran all the way, and the community basketball court was getting farther and farther away from them, until they ran across the street corner.

Jiang Nuan’s ears were Lu Ran’s breathing when he ran. The ups and downs of his chest were like a deep sea. He hugged her tightly until he reached the end of the street.

Rao Can and Cheng Doudou couldn’t run for a long time, they were panting against the wall.

Lu Ran hugged Jiang Nuan and turned around, waiting for the two of them.

“It’s really annoying… It’s amazing to have Lu Ran in his arms!” Cheng Doudou said angrily.

“I even carried her schoolbag all the way!” Rao Can let go and threw Jiang Nuan’s schoolbag on the ground.

“She hasn’t gotten off Ren Lu Ran yet! Is she addicted to being hugged by the princess?”

The two walked forward slowly, as if to see how long Lu Ran could hold Jiang Nuan like this.

Jiang Nuan realized that she was still being held, her heart was beating like a drum, and her face was getting hot. She tugged at Lu Ran’s arm and said, “Director Zhang shouldn’t be able to catch up… Let me down…”

Lu Ran turned sideways, put Jiang Nuan in front of the window of a clothing store by the roadside, and let her sit.

“Take up the trousers and see what the injury is like.”

Jiang Nuan lowered her head and pulled her trousers up, almost to the knees, her face immediately wrinkled.

Lu Ran helped her pull her trousers to her knees, but did not touch her wound.

Both of her knees were torn, and the blood oozing from her left knee was all over her school pants.

Jiang Nuan made a “hiss” sound, but Lu Ran kept his head down, but Jiang Nuan saw that his brows were very tight.

His forehead was so close to him that Jiang Nuan couldn’t help but raise his finger and press his eyebrows.

Lu Ran’s shoulders froze slightly, and he slowly looked at her. Those clear eyes made Jiang Nuan’s heart tighten.

“I don’t really feel pain anymore…”

“I know. It’s numb.” Lu Ran replied, “Don’t take off the pants, for fear of sticking to the wound.”

At this time, Cheng Doudou and Rao Can also came over, and Cheng Doudou also hissed.

“It looks horrible!”

“Director Zhang is ruthless this time, as if we were not watching a basketball game, but a crowd fight.” Rao Can shook his head helplessly.

“In Lao Zhang’s heart, apart from eating, drinking, sleeping, and sleeping, other time must be spent on study. We can’t let us become a beat generation and affect the glorious image of our High School Affiliated to Normal University. I hope Cao Li and Lin Mixia are scolded. Forget it after a while, don’t make any more fuss about it!”

“Will Director Zhang also let Cao Li and Lin Mixia write a review? The whole school reads that?”

“It shouldn’t be so. After all, Lin Mixia is a ‘good student’ in Director Zhang’s heart, and she is also a girl. Asking her to write a review or something will hurt people by making a fuss.”

“When did Lao Zhang not make a fuss and hurt people?”

Jiang Nuan reluctantly glanced at the two who were discussing happily. Why did they seem to have completely forgotten about her?

Finally Lu Ran said, “Go home and treat the wound.”

Cheng Doudou gave Jiang Nuan his schoolbag, Lu Ran stopped a taxi, and went home.

Back downstairs, Lu Ran carried Jiang Nuan’s schoolbag in his left hand and supported her in his right hand. Although he didn’t hurt his bones, it hurt every step he took.

“My mother must have asked me what was going on when I got home.”

“Aren’t you the best at lying?”

“No way!”

“Then do you think it’s illegal to watch basketball games?”

“It shouldn’t count in my mother’s mind.”

“Then tell the truth.”

When Lu Ran said this, Jiang Nuan also felt it made sense.

Sure enough, as soon as the door was opened, my mother saw the wound on Jiang Nuan’s knee, and she felt very distressed, and hurriedly brought the medicine box over.

It was just that when the cotton ball was dipped in hydrogen peroxide and attached to the wound, it was so painful that her cheeks felt sore.

As soon as Lu Ran put down her schoolbag, she grabbed her arm.

“Mom…it hurts me…”

“I know it hurts now? Didn’t you have a good time watching the game? How about it, did you win?”

When my mother asked here, Jiang Nuan immediately showed a proud expression.

“With Lu Ran here, of course we won!”

Luo Chen was delighted: “No wonder Xiao Nuan, who has never been very interested in basketball, goes to see the ball game. It turns out that Lu Ran is also there!”

While chatting, my mother helped Jiang Nuan treat the wound and put on gauze.

“These good school pants are rubbing hair again.” Mom said.

Jiang Nuan said without thinking, “Then ask Lu Ran if his school pants are still there…”

Halfway through, Jiang Nuan was immediately a little embarrassed, and she didn’t think of herself as an outsider in front of Lu Ran.

“You can’t wear my school pants in the third year of junior high.” Lu Ran said lightly.

“Can’t wear it? Did you break it?”

“I grew up faster during that time, and the school pants are too long for you.”

Jiang Nuan had a feeling of being hit by a crit.

In the evening, Jiang Nuan was lying on the bed, thinking about Lu Ran’s last dunk.

When she was watching the game, she said that she wanted to watch a dunk, but Lu Ran, who couldn’t shoot, dunked at the end.

Did you show her?

Although it could not be confirmed, Jiang Nuan was still happily hugging the quilt and smirking.

But the next day, the second year of the High School Affiliated to Normal University, was Avici Hell.

Director Zhang took his “minions” around to “hunt down” the fugitives from yesterday’s basketball game.

As soon as Jiang Nuan sat down, He Zheng ran to tip off the news.

“Didn’t Director Zhang lead the team to catch Cao Li and Lin Mixia yesterday? They didn’t say anything, so we don’t need to worry about anything, just don’t get scammed by Director Zhang.”

“Aren’t you honest?” Jiang Nuan asked, tilting her head.

“Director Zhang is a paper tiger. No one can catch him. How can he really take care of Cao Li and Lin Mixia?”

Jiang Nuan pushed He Zheng: “You really can do it! You have no loyalty in the fencing club. If you don’t dare to fight against Lu Ran, just push me out. There are Cao Li and Lin Mixia at the moment, do you think? Are you very lucky? What a coward!”

“So what else? Cao Li and Lin Mixia are both in the first examination room. For the sake of the admission rate, Director Zhang can’t do anything with them. But I, Li Tietou and other brothers are different…”

“The law does not blame the public! If everyone has the courage to stand up and take responsibility, can Director Zhang not punish Lin Mixia and Cao Li, but only punish you a few?”

Jiang Nuan glanced at He Zheng with contempt, “I didn’t sleep and took the initiative to inform Director Zhang, but when you play basketball, you are a team, but when it comes to taking responsibility, you have to divide the exam room, you can be a little more cowardly. Is it?”

He Zheng was stunned for a while, didn’t say anything more, and sat back to his seat.

Lu Ran, who was beside him, was sorting his schoolbag and said lightly, “This is the most thoughtful thing you have said since I was at the same table with you.”

“Really? Thank you!”

“Just waiting for Director Zhang to come, don’t be a coward.”

A basin of cold water was poured down, and Jiang Nuan unhappily took his English paper and looked at it.

Before five minutes of early reading, Director Zhang and class teacher Nie walked in.

Teacher Nie winked, and the representative of the English class who organized the morning reading hurriedly returned to his seat.

Director Zhang came to the podium, his eyes swept across the classroom with a deterrent, and everyone bowed their heads in unison.

“Yesterday, some students in our school didn’t go home to eat and do their homework well after school, and they didn’t inform the school, so they made a private agreement with the students of No. 16 Middle School to have a basketball game on the community basketball court! Gathering there is more lively than the US election! Our Academic Affairs Office immediately went to investigate when we received the news!”

“What kind of investigation? It’s obviously the oppression of progressive students by the reactionary party…” Jiang Nuan whispered.

She glanced at Lu Ran and found that he was checking her physics papers in a poised manner.

“And the organizers of this irregular game, Cao Li and Lin Mixia, have no regrets! They refuse to explain who else participated in the basketball game that day! This is disrespect to the teacher! What are you doing after school? Teacher! And how many days are left in your final exam? You actually spent your precious study time playing basketball! Now the school has decided to issue a warning to Cao Li and Lin Mixia! Admit it, I will let them write the review and get up to read it in the morning!”

Jiang Nuan cursed in his heart, is Director Zhang addicted to acting as a villain all his life!

At this moment, Jiang Nuan heard the chair beside him shaking, and Lu Ran stood up.

In an instant, the eyes of the entire classroom came to him.

Director Zhang raised his glasses and looked at Lu Ran: “Lu Ran, what’s wrong with you?”

“I was a member of the basketball team yesterday.” Lu Ran’s voice was so clear in the quiet classroom that every word fell on his nerves.
