Chapter 35: Chapter 34 Misunderstanding
"Qi Jing, watch your back!" Lin Tian glanced at the silent Qi Jing, took the basketball, and walked away without looking back, leaving Sun Decai with a gloomy face.
By the fourth quarter, the school team had completely collapsed, Guo Heng was benched early, apparently called off by Sun Decai for questioning. They had more troubling matters to deal with; their plot against Lin Tian had failed, leading to the team’s loss, and repaying the money bet on their opponents was enough to give them a headache.
The basketball game finally ended, the bright red score on the electronic scoreboard felt surreal, a 103-point difference stunned everyone. It was an unprecedented record in school history, and it elevated Class 1 of Senior Year Three to legendary status.
In the gym’s rest room, students from Senior Year Three cheered exuberantly, even more thrilled than if they had topped their exams.
"Lin Tian, thank you." The sports committee member Yao Yun looked at Lin Tian, a flicker of inexplicable emotion in her eyes as she earnestly said, "You made us realize that besides studying, there are many other things worth enjoying and cherishing."
"Haha, we’ve only been together for a little over a month, if you guys still remember ten years later that there was a classmate named Lin Tian in Senior Year Three, that will be enough for me." Lin Tian laughed heartily, casually saying that winning the game was just a piece of cake for him.
"I won’t forget." Yao Yun said softly with her head bowed, then her cheeks flushed red, and she couldn’t stay there any longer, turning around and running away as if fleeing.
"Hmph!" A snort came from behind Lin Tian, and when he turned around, it was Xiao Manxuan and Zhang Lingyu.
It was Xiao Manxuan who snorted, staring at him wide-eyed, while Zhang Lingyu seemed to smile yet not smile, looking as if she loved creating chaos. Lin Tian, with skin as thick as a city wall, earnestly explained, "Don’t misunderstand, my relationship with classmate Yao Yun is purely platonic, pure like drinking water."
"Since it’s a male-female relationship, can it still be pure?" Zhang Lingyu remained calm and collected, but her words floored Lin Tian.
"Lin Tian, you’re too bad, how could you corrupt the sports committee member?" Xiao Manxuan accused him sternly.
These two girls were getting more and more out of hand; if Lin Tian let them continue, he would be condemned for all eternity.
"You definitely misheard just now, what classmate Yao Yun said was about us." Lin Tian argued defensively.
"Hmph, don’t lie to me, but I know you, Lin Tian, would never do anything inappropriate, right?" Xiao Manxuan blinked her eyes as she spoke.
Inappropriate? How else could he be inappropriate? Surely not messing around with Yao Yun in a male-female relationship, that surely wasn’t possible, Lin Tian thought without words for this little girl.
However, Xiao Manxuan’s attitude had softened a lot compared to before; with her previously fiery temperament, she might have exploded, Lin Tian mused. Although she still had her moments, after having recently experienced Lin Tian’s ’Divine Skill’ spanking, the little girl had become much more behaved.
He eyed Xiao Manxuan with less than honorable intentions, wondering if he should find an opportunity to do it again.
Xiao Manxuan seeing his gaze fixed intently on her, involuntarily remembered the last time Lin Tian had spanked her, her face flushed with redness, spreading all the way to her fair neck.
Her heartbeat raced, and she could no longer stay, her eyes glanced at Lin Tian briefly as she imitated Yao Yun and fled like the wind.
The affection in that glance intoxicated Lin Tian as if he had drunk an ancient brew, making him feel deliriously elated.
"Hmph!" A cold snort from Zhang Lingyu pulled Lin Tian back from heaven to earth.
"Wow, Zhang Lingyu, why are you looking at me with that kind of eye, I’m a decent person, I get shy." Lin Tian felt as though he was seen right through under her clear gaze, exposing the slightly dirty little thoughts hidden deep inside as if under the blazing sun.
"Quit the act and let’s go, you’re the only one left. Do you really want to spend the night here?" Zhang Lingyu glanced at him indifferently and walked toward the door.
Lin Tian muttered under his breath, "Well, there’s still you, the great beauty. It wouldn’t be so bad for a lone man and a single woman to spend the night here, would it?"
Two murderous glares shot towards him, and Lin Tian shivered, catching a glimpse of purple lightning flashing in Zhang Lingyu’s eyes. Suddenly, she reached for the trash can near the door, hurled it with force, and the trash can whistled as it crashed toward Lin Tian.
Who knew the little girl was so strong? Lin Tian reached out and gently deflected, catching the trash can. But on the bottom of the trash can, unbeknownst to him, was a golden yellow talisman. Just as Lin Tian embraced the trash can, there was a muffled "boom," and the trash can exploded.
Smoke instantly filled the lounge, and the contents of the trash can scattered all over, splashing Lin Tian from head to face.
"Ptooey ptooey ptooey..." Lin Tian spat out the sand that flew into his mouth continuously, and by the time the smoke cleared, Zhang Lingyu was nowhere to be seen.
What the heck, why did the perfectly normal trash can just explode? Lin Tian wiped the dust off his face, puzzled for a while, and couldn’t figure it out. Was it just an accident?
He checked his phone, relieved that it wasn’t damaged. Though it was a corporate handout, it was still worth quite a few thousand bucks.
"Damn, why did my hair turn into an explosion style?" Lin Tian accidentally caught a glimpse of his reflection in the phone screen and yelped.
Not just that, Lin Tian fiddled with his clothes a few times, and his attire turned into beggar’s wear. His clothes and pants were all blasted into strips, revealing more than intended with every movement.
Darn it, how am I supposed to go back like this? Walking out like this would definitely get me mistaken for a hooligan. Never mind, I’ll head back to the car first. Lin Tian pulled out his phone and called Xiao Manxuan.
"You rascal, why haven’t you come out yet? Sister Lingyu is already in the classroom," Xiao Manxuan’s puzzled voice came through the phone.
"Well, I just went to the bathroom. I’ll head to the parking lot and drive the car out. I won’t return to the classroom; could you get my school uniform for me?" Lin Tian lied.
"Oh, okay." Xiao Manxuan was unsuspecting.
After hanging up, Lin Tian went to the bathroom to fix his hair and washed the dust off his face. Only then did he leave the gymnasium.
Last time it was streaking, and this time was pretty much the same. Lin Tian reflected on his now extensive experience with streaking and figured he might as well write a book about it after a few more streaks.
Reaching the parking lot outside the school and getting back into his car, Lin Tian finally felt a bit safer, otherwise, having his pant legs flapping in the breeze felt chillingly bare.
Wondering if girls feel the same when they wear skirts, he was lost in his thoughts when the car door opened, and it was Xiao Manxuan who sat down inside.
But someone else followed her, and upon closer look, it was Zhang Lingyu.
Zhang Lingyu completely ignored Lin Tian’s presence and also sat down.
"Zhang Lingyu, we’re heading home. Why are you following?" Lin Tian said irritably, still frazzled by the ordeal she had caused him.
"Sister Lingyu’s villa is right next to our estate, we’re on the same route," Xiao Manxuan delivered the unpleasant news to Lin Tian.
