Chapter 469 – Latecomer Surpasses

I told the class leader to not tell Xiao Qin about Auntie Ren’s pregnancy since she wasn’t prepared yet. The class leader agreed and said she wasn’t planning on meddling in other people’s business since it was something for Auntie Ren to tell Xiao Qin.

After I returned home, Su Qiao had already bought enough food to last us for next week. She passed me the receipt for an inspection, but I put it to the side without even looking at it.

I didn’t really cherish the gift card since we won it in a lottery, but Su Qiao thought I didn’t care about money because I was used to living as a rich young master.

The basketball game on Wednesday was as I anticipated. Niu ShiLi couldn’t play due to his injury, and the two main players of class 4 was also injured, so they became pushovers (they weren’t that strong originally either).

Thus the entire game became my personal stage.

Throw ins, dribbles, triangle passing, class 4 couldn’t even struggle anymore after missing their key players.

Since we won our last game, class 2-3 had a higher expectation of us, so more boys and girls came to watch our game. Even though the main scorer was someone as frightening as me, but because of their pride of the class, they still proudly said to others: “That person is our class’ PE committee member.”

In this game, in order to get on better terms with the other players, I continued to give my other team members a chance to score.

You Chen, who had great dribbling skills but was rarely able to score due to his short stature, was able to score 12 points with my help. After a quick layup, he enjoyed the swoosh sound of the net and the cheers from the girls in our class, then he sent me a look of gratitude.

The chatty Xu LiJun scored 13 points and Pi ZeGuang scored 15 points. They were both satisfied with their own performance.

Mu ZhongMing, who substituted for Niu ShiLi, was in charge of guarding. He might not have scored a single point, but he was an awakened soon-to-be Buddhist who didn’t really care. (As for Sun Yu, who had an unclear relationship with the school doctor and neglected practice, I didn’t even let him play)

Niu ShiLi, who was watching the game with his bandaged foot, was dissatisfied.

“It’s better if he didn’t pass. It would have been more likely to go in if he shot it himself, Ye Lin is a coward.”

Niu ShiLi complained to the people next to him.

I laughed at his presumptuous judgments.

Niu ShiLi, who has never studied ‘The Prince’, naturally would not understand why I passed a ball I could score to You Chen. And why I encouraged You Chen when he missed.

Besides, in that game, I will depend on them to pass to me.

As the whistle sound signified the end of the game, I was able to score a final three-pointer. The final score was 68:52 and I scored 28 points.

There was a 22 point difference at the end of the last game for the bet between me and Niu ShiLi. Now, not only did I catch up, I was ahead by 6 points.

In the next finals match, I would still have a hard time, it’s not easy to score points against Shen ShaoYi and Liu HuaiShui. I could foresee the amount of total points our class scores greatly decreasing in the next game.

Actually, I felt I could have scored more points against class 4 this game.

It was mainly because Xiao Qin distracted me.

Isn’t this the same as the panda dad from Ranma 1/2 or Elizabeth from Gintama who use signs because they can’t speak. It’s not like you’re a mute, so why are you learning from them and trying to act cute?

“Ye Lin classmate is amazing.”

“Do your best!”

“olt;(=○ω○=)gt;0″ (I think it’s supposed to be a cat)

“I love Ye Lin classmate.”

“Do you want to go to dinner together tonight?”

“If you score again, I’ll take it as an agreement.”

Damn, are you cheering me on or chatting with me? Over a third of the students here are reading your sign and it’s embarrassing! Since you wrote my name too, it’s making me embarrassed with you!

Loud Mouth, who was bribed by Xiao Qin with snacks, thought it was pretty interesting. Whenever Xiao Qin’s arms got too sore, she would help her hold up a sign that says ‘Do your best’.

I admired myself for being able to score 28 points even when Xiao Qin bombarded me with messages.

I had a vague feeling Xiao Qin heard from someone that if I took first in our grade, I could get a free meal at the class leader’s house. She must have been hoping I would lose.

Our game ended and the girl’s volleyball game also ended at the same time. Our class won again, my only regret was I wasn’t able to see the class leader’s legs.

After hearing how we easily won against class 4, and I scored the most most points, the class leader came to congratulate us while already wearing long pants over her shorts.

“Only one more game, do you best.”

Class leader, if you really wanted to cheer me on, don’t wear long pants over your shorts. You should give me a treat for my eyes.

When we returned to class, I realized Xiao Qin’s writing board had been modified by a skilled craftsman. The handles could be folded and hid behind the board (there was even a groove on the handles to store the writing utensil), that way she could store the board in her bag.

“Who made it for you?” I doubt Xiao Qin was skilled enough to remodel it herself.

“It’s the shoe repairman uncle~” Xiao Qin answered cheerfully, “Ye Lin classmate, where should we go for dinner?”

“When did I agree to have dinner with you?”

“Huh, Ye Lin classmate shouldn’t go back on his words, didn’t we say that if you scored it would count as you agreed?”

“We’re neither deaf or mute, so why are we using a writing board? Besides, use a normal method instead of scoring, now everyone knows how brain-dead you are.”

“I’m sorry…. If you don’t like the writing board, then I’ll kill it when I get home.”

“Hey, it’s an inanimate object, why are you making it sound like it’s alive? If you keep it, it might come into use later.”

For example, if I had to answer a question I didn’t know on the blackboard, then Xiao Qin can give me a hint with the writing board.

When school was almost over, I received a call from Tang Jiang.

Of course, the reason why he was looking for me was because he wanted Xiao Hong’s contact information. He said he already investigated Shu Sha and her brother, and they didn’t have any female cousins in Dong Shan city, so I was his only clue.

I could only make up some lie like Xiao Hong inherited a fortune from a distant relative who lived in the arctic, so she already left the country. But he didn’t really believe my creative lie.

I tried the traditional approach of adding him to my blocked list, but then he called me with a pay phone.

It’s all Shu Zhe’s fault, why did he have to leave my phone number. It’s fine if he gave him a fake number, isn’t he supposed to be smart?

I then thought about how ruthless Shu Zhe was for taking 100 dollars from me for simply telling me one line that her sister wrote in her diary.

After being bothered by Tang Jiang, I wanted to take my anger out on Shu Zhe. Idecided to listen to Uncle Fireball’s advice and make Shu Zhe blow up condoms to sell. A portion of the sales of the “Kiss Mark Condom” will go to the special education school, so it’s a good deed.

Ah, I’m so dumb. I realized I shouldn’t have gave the 50 condoms to Director Cao, I should have left them for Shu Zhe.

Thus I found Eunuch Cao before school ended, and asked:

“Director Cao didn’t use the 50 condoms I gave him, right?”

Eunuch Cao smiled and said: “Master really knows how to joke around. Do you think my father is a lion?”

Male lions can indeed copulate up to 50 times a day, but each session is really quick, so they are the famous quick shots. In comparison, a pig’s orgasm can last 30 minutes. I watched a show about those two animals together, I forgot everything else after the pig.

“If Director Cao still has some left over, then please return 10 to me, I need it.”

“No problem, if my master needs it, how can I not help as your disciple? But I checked the expiry date yesterday and it’s going to expire at the end of the month. If you need ten, then you need to hurry up…”

He said as he looked at Xiao Qin who was chatting with Loud Mouth.

Who said I was going to use it with Xiao Qin, it’s for Shu Zhe.

No, luckily I didn’t say it out loud, or I would be misunderstood.

Eunuch Cao promised he would bring 20 condoms tomorrow, since Director Cao wouldn’t even be able to use 30 before it expires.

But Shu Zhe couldn’t come to my house for the time being since Su Qiao was living there.

I could let Shu Zhe blow it up in an isolated area in the school, but how am I going to bring it home?
