High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 54: Summer Remedial Classes

On the basketball court, Li Yang and Jiang Banxia sat nearby, each holding a cup of milk tea.

Li Yang raised his milk tea and shouted at Wu Tianqi on the court: "Fellow Daoist Wu, this one’s on you!"

Wu Tianqi made a clank, missed the shot.

Quite reminiscent of a little blacksmith from Los Angeles.

He protested: "Why me?"

Jiang Banxia said: "If you score, we’ll cheer for you!"

After speaking, she took a sip of milk tea, showing a satisfied expression.

Wu Tianqi felt weak all over, sour.

This guy, why come to the basketball court anyway.

And not even play...

He decided to drag Li Yang onto the court.

"Oh crap... oh crap..."

Wu Tianqi suddenly sat on the ground clutching his ankle, a look of agony on his face.

Li Yang watched Wu Tianqi limp over to him, "Damn, I twisted my ankle, Fellow Daoist Li, you take my place, I play small forward, even if you don’t know how to play, just hold my position."

Li Yang: "..."

I don’t know how to play basketball?

Singing, dancing or rapping, which of those don’t I know?

And what’s up with Wu Tianqi? His acting was a bit exaggerated just now. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Turns out he’s not just a little blacksmith from Los Angeles, but also has the smart ankle move?

This guy actually has two terrifying sacred powers.

Indeed, he was itching to play, only a barely controllable basketball can bring satisfaction.

Over there with Xue Ning, can’t say small, rather exquisite, after all, it’s above average.

He put down the milk tea and directly went onto the court, exchanged a few words with the people on both sides.

It was a 4V4 half-court game, not keeping score, but most were special sports students.

Li Yang was quite familiar with them too, although that was in a past life.

After identifying who to guard, the game started.

Jiang Banxia watched the court, asked: "Wu Tianqi, I remember Li Yang can play basketball, why did you say he couldn’t just now?"

Wu Tianqi said: "When Li Yang plays with us, most of the time he fills in as center, his mobility isn’t great, ball-handling isn’t either, small forwards need to float outside, for him, this is a rather unfamiliar position. Of course, against regular opponents it wouldn’t make a difference, but these people here today, they know how to play, can spot his..."

"Oh..."

Wu Tianqi hadn’t finished his sentence when Jiang Banxia exclaimed.

He glanced at the court, Li Yang played with a fluid grace.

Easily getting past players, scoring a layup.

Wu Tianqi: "..."

Since when did this guy master ball-handling so well? Where did he practice?

His thirty-thousand-dollar training class didn’t have this effect.

The next second, a clank was heard.

Li Yang took a high leap, grabbing the basketball that was supposed to bounce off the rim, forcefully dunking it back in.

"Oh crap!"

"Whoa whoa whoa..."

Jiang Banxia didn’t understand basketball, but that dunk was indeed impressive.

Wu Tianqi got up and walked toward the court.

"Your leg isn’t hurting?"

"Not hurting, if I let it hurt any longer, that guy’s gonna steal the spotlight!"

Wu Tianqi could tolerate Li Yang being handsomer, having better grades, more girls, longer height, but couldn’t stand him being better at basketball.

Li Yang hadn’t even broken a sweat.

After being replaced by Wu Tianqi, he returned to Jiang Banxia’s side, asked: "That guy didn’t touch my milk tea, did he?"

"A little later, he might have, I saw him reaching slowly..."

"Haha, lucky I acted early, otherwise this milk tea would’ve gone to the wrong person."

"Yeah yeah, that’s right!"

The two continued watching the game on the court, since it wasn’t mealtime yet.

After a while, Jiang Banxia hesitated and said: "Li Yang, actually my mom’s quite nice, it’s just because of my dad’s position, she sides with the teachers..."

Li Yang asked: "What’s your dad do?"

"He... works in the education bureau." Jiang Banxia said a bit embarrassed.

"Oh oh, then I understand."

Jiang City’s student numbers have been declining, used to be stable producing two Qingbei, in the past four years only three came out.

Most are attracted to the neighboring county, there’s a national top hundred school, producing a dozen Qingbeis each year.

Even Liu Dayou, as bad as he is, can teach the elite senior class, Dou Ying stepping up to ease tensions is quite normal.

Jiang Banxia tried asking: "So you’re not angry anymore, right?"

"Angry! She criticizes me, I’ll criticize her daughter."

"Okay, then go ahead."

...

Dou Ying was not far from Jiang Banxia.

Regarding the stance matter, she’s already come to terms.

Jiang Banxia had finished the exams, task completed, siding with Jiang Yaoting’s perspective was definitely not wrong.

While Jiang Banxia and Li Yang were chatting, she sent a message to Jiang Yaoting.

"Xiaxia estimated a score of 690."

Jiang Yaoting: "Really?"

Dou Ying: "Quite a few teachers are here, Xiaxia reconstructing the test answers, apart from the last math... although the last math question was very difficult, Xiaxia did it, likely a perfect score."

Jiang Yaoting: "If it’s really 690, that’s great, our county hasn’t had a 690 before, this year we can run some promotion help attract more students to our school."

Dou Ying: "All you think about is the students, isn’t it."

Jiang Yaoting: "Not at all, you, Xiaxia, and Dongdong are the most important to me, I’ll go book a place for lunch, let’s have a meal."

"Then I’ll go tell Xiaxia."

Dou Ying didn’t mention the happenings in the office, it’s just a small matter, Li Yang and Jiang Banxia are bound not to intersect much in the future.

She walked over just hearing the two chatting.

Li Yang said: "Forget it, won’t talk about language, explain why did you lose nine points in science?"

"Ah? I... made a mistake on a physics question’s last part, also misread a biology multiple-choice."

Jiang Banxia was being criticized.

Li Yang: "What are you saying? Physics has difficult problems? The last part isn’t easy? Just a few formulas, a simple pendulum period formula, a kinetic energy theorem, then using energy conservation to calculate, doesn’t the data come out? It’s just the answer is a bit complex, but these are basic questions!"

Jiang Banxia said embarrassed: "I... copied a wrong data, leading to incorrect calculation results..."

"And then the multiple-choice? Biology questions aren’t easy? They’re all word games."

"I... I..."

"Jiang Banxia, how dumb can you be during summer, come over and have some lessons, I’ve heard Qingbei entrance exams aren’t easy, and their admission brochures even state if you fail the entrance exams, you’ll be rejected, then you’ll become a joke."

"Huh? There’s such a thing?"

Li Yang seriously said: "Of course there is!"

Though nationally only a few are rejected, Qingbei hasn’t rejected anyone over entrance exams yet, but most university admission brochures do have this clause.

He’s afraid he might end up being the first to get rejected...

This life, he must go to this university, see what charm that girl has, everyone who went says it’s good, even forming a disdain chain.
