Bai Luo Yin once again had the ball and was right outside the three-pointer line.
Fat Thief grew frantic. If this ball was another three-pointer, then it would be almost impossible for his team to win. Hence, the player charged at Bai Luo Yin without a second thought and started fighting for the ball in Bai Luo Yin's hands like crazy. Bai Luo Yin's techniques were fast and nimble, while Fat Thief was slow on his feet and couldn't keep up with Bai Luo Yin's movements. Very quickly, he became dizzy from trying to follow Bai Luo Yin's every move.
Bai Luo Yin passed the ball to his teammate and then darted from Fat Thief's left side to receive the ball his teammate passed back.
Fat Thief grew angry. He turned around and pushed Bai Luo Yin.
Bai Luo Yin had just jumped into the air and his center of gravity was still unstable. With the push from Fat Thief, his entire body hit the pole holding up the basketball hoop.
From the start, Gu Hai knew that the situation does not look promising. He wanted to yell and stop Fat Thief, but it was too late. He ran over, his strides long, hoping to grab Bai Luo Yin, but he was too far away. When Gu Hai arrived, Bai Luo Yin had already fallen onto the ground.
Gu Hai's face immediately changed colors; everyone can see the change clearly. When he went to help Bai Luo Yin up, his hand was shaking. Bai Luo Yin had a pretty bad fall. Half of his face was purple, there was a smear of red under his nose, and his lips were torn.
"Fuck! How dare you push him?"
Gu Hai grabbed Fat Thief's collar, his entire face suddenly dark, his gaze threatening to swallow the other person whole. No one dared to go up and stop Gu Hai. Gu Hai kicked the soft part of Fat Thief's leg, twisting his feet in until Fat Thief let a blood-chilling scream, and his legs trembled in pain. Gu Hai let fly two punches, knocking the more than 100 kg boy onto the ground. Ignoring Fat Thief's cries, Gu Hai landed a few more fierce kicks on his body, his movements swift, until Fat Thief didn't even have the strength to scream.
You Qi took out a tissue and wiped Bai Luo Yin's face. Then, he carefully patted the dirt off of Bai Luo Yin's body.
After Gu Hai vented all of his anger, he walked towards Bai Luo Yin. He pushed You Qi out of the way and then gently said to Bai Luo Yin, "Let me look, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Bai Luo Yin furrowed his brows.
Gu Hai moved Bai Luo Yin's hand that was covering the side of his face and took a careful look, the pain clear in his eyes.
"How is this fine? Does your family consider this kind of injury inconsequential?" Gu Hai felt both angry and upset as he pulled Bai Luo Yin outside, cursing as he went, "That pole was so hard! I should really have dragged that idiot over there, and let him hit the pole a few times too, shit..."
You Qi carried Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai's bags, his face a complex mix of emotions as he followed them.
"Hey! ...I'm talking to you, the one with the especially dumb name..."
Distracted, You Qi did not hear the person. He felt a person slap his shoulder and turned his head to see a delicate and pretty face.
"Why are you here?" You Qi asked.
Yang Meng grinned, "My next class is PE. Did your class end already? How come I don't see Bai Luo Yin?"
"Isn't he just in front of us?"
Yang Meng laughed awkwardly, "I didn't bring my glasses."
"Then how did you see me?"
Yang Meng snorted, "How can anyone not see your annoying and cocky appearance? Say, my deskmate has quite the crush on you. For the entire day, she would talk about you, You Qi this, and You Qi that. Hearing it makes me want to puke."
You Qi grabbed the small Yang Meng and pulled him into a rough embrace. He spoke through gritted teeth, "Do you want me to cure you then?"
"Don't, don't, don't..." Yang Meng shrinks into himself. He then tried to provoke You Qi, "I can't fight. If you're so capable, you should go fight Bai Luo Yin."
You Qi raised his chin, pointing to Bai Luo Yin.
"He also can't fight anymore either."
Yang Meng's expression dropped, "What happened?"
"Why don't you go over and take a look?!"
Yang Meng quickly walked up to Bai Luo Yin and stopped in front of him. He stared for a long while. His mouth kept on moving, but no sounds came out. It wasn't until Bai Luo Yin turned his head did Yang Meng clench his teeth and let out a sound of concern, looking as if he got attacked by a wolf.
"Fuck, Yin ZI! How did you get beat up so badly to this level?"
Bai Luo Yin hasn't seen Yang Meng in a long time and seeing his grief-stricken face, his heart suddenly felt a shred of the warmth that came from familiarity. He reached out his arm and easily enveloped Yang Meng in an embrace. Yang Meng looked so delicate and pretty that from afar, it looked like Bai Luo Yin was hugging a girl. Bai Luo Yin pinched Yang Meng's smooth and soft face out of habit, and Yang Meng used his elbow to jab at Bai Luo Yin's stomach. The two acted like when they were little, as affectionate as two lifelong friends can be.
