ATPN Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Husband is So Handsome

The evening sun was about to set. Fang Jingtong had made plans to play basketball, and since it was rare to see Song Baiyan not out, he called him along too.

Song Baiyan had been very busy lately, rarely on campus except for classes, and hadn’t played basketball in a while. Fang Jingtong’s invitation made his hands itch a little.

When they arrived at the basketball court, there were quite a few people there. Song Baiyan glanced around and noticed a familiar figure sitting in the stands by the sports field. He already had a guess as to who Fang Jingtong had invited.

“Did you invite…” who?

Despite his guess, he still asked the question, but before he could finish, Fang Jingtong had impatiently rushed onto the court.

Song Baiyan shook his head and followed, but his gaze couldn’t help but drift towards the sidelines. The boy was sitting properly with his legs together, holding a phone horizontally, looking very well-behaved.

His little junior was shy and bashful, his face blushing easily with just a little closeness, very timid.

He was completely different from the streamer in the live broadcast room who often exploded with anger and easily banned people to the blacklist.

They didn’t seem like the same person at all.

“Song Baiyan, what are you looking at? Hurry up.” Fang Jingtong stood in front of the basket, caught the ball Yang You threw over, and urged him when he turned around and saw Song Baiyan still dawdling.

The person on the sidelines was holding a phone, watching very intently. Song Baiyan withdrew his gaze and ran towards Fang Jingtong and the others.

Yu Zhanrong was holding his phone with both hands, playing the game with a focused expression. This round he was matched with random players, and seeing that they were about to be wiped out, his brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Random games were too hard to play, and the teammates he was matched with weren’t strong enough. Forget it, let’s just give up.

His game character was KO’d, and the screen was all gray. While waiting for the game to restart, Yu Zhanrong put down his phone and looked towards the basketball court.

Huh?

Yu Zhanrong squinted. When did Song Baiyan arrive?

Yu Zhanrong didn’t like sports and wasn’t very interested in places like basketball courts, but he had three roommates who loved to play basketball.

Seeing him withering away alone in the dorm, they dragged him over with the excuse that “even if he doesn’t move, watching is good too, the hormones all over the court can increase his adrenaline, consider it exercise.”

He couldn’t win against six hands, so he compromised. He was currently sitting on the sidelines playing games, considering it cheering them on.

But he didn’t expect them to invite Song Baiyan. The saying “valuing the opposite sex over friends” wasn’t without reason; at least the basketball court looked much more pleasing to the eye now.

His phone vibrated, and someone invited him to team up. Yu Zhanrong subconsciously tapped to confirm, and couldn’t help but sigh when he saw the matched teammates.

Tsk, another random game.

Although the probability of winning was very low, he still took it seriously, hoping not to lose too badly.

The game was at a critical moment, and Yu Zhanrong was concentrating on controlling his game character to charge towards the opponent. The enemy team seemed to be evenly matched, and this game had a chance of winning!

Victory was ahead. Yu Zhanrong’s fingers were almost creating afterimages on the screen, when he suddenly heard a scream, and the bursts of cheers shook his hand.

The game character in the screen moved crookedly, his skill missed, and he was continuously attacked by the opponent. In an instant, all that was left in front of him was a gray screen.

Damn it!

My game!

Yu Zhanrong angrily raised his head, and saw that so many people had gathered around him at some point, both men and women, all more excited than the last.

He blankly followed everyone’s gaze towards the basketball court, and saw Song Baiyan standing outside the three-point line, his hand still raised high, maintaining his shooting posture.

“Clang!”

“Ah!!!!!”

The surrounding screams were hurting his eardrums. Yu Zhanrong covered his ears, suppressing the groundhog in his heart.

Ah!!!!!

Senior brother is awesome!!!

“Wow, Song Baiyan is so handsome, so handsome!!!!”

“He’s really awesome! He can shoot three-pointers so easily, I’m really impressed!”

“Brother Yan, so handsome!”

“I want to be his leg pendant, always hanging on him!”

“Husband!!!!”

“…”

It wasn’t until he heard the character death notification again in his headphones that Yu Zhanrong came back to his senses.

Were girls these days so crazy?

Although he was indeed very handsome… but…

Calling him “husband” was too embarrassing.

Yu Zhanrong simply closed the game and seriously watched the basketball game. Maybe his roommates were right.

He did have a feeling of adrenaline rushing and blood boiling.

His gaze followed Song Baiyan’s figure closely, unable to move away. Fang Jingtong passed the ball to Song Baiyan.

He saw him holding the ball, faking out the person defending him, and nimbly dribbling past him. He jumped up and threw the ball out.

The jumping motion caused his top to lift, revealing his lean waist and smooth abdominal lines.

As the basketball went into the hoop,

Yu Zhanrong held his breath nervously.

“Wow wow!!!!!!!!”

Too excited, Yu Zhanrong couldn’t help but stand up. Everyone was shouting excitedly, so it wouldn’t matter if he shouted a word in the crowd.

The people on both sides were very excited and didn’t care about him at all. Yu Zhanrong cupped his hands around his lips like a trumpet and shouted, “So handsome!!!!”

At this moment, a clear male voice followed closely behind,

“Husband! So handsome!!!”

Yu Zhanrong was dumbfounded, his hands still held to his lips in a shouting gesture. He mechanically turned his head and met the boy’s eyes.

It was clearly a girl just now, who was this person?

Standing here was fine, after all it was a public area, but why did he have to show off so much, trying to be the center of attention?

The boy shrugged, his arms hanging at his sides, not saying anything, as if nothing had happened.

The surrounding girls all looked at Yu Zhanrong in unison, starting to whisper.

Yu Zhanrong: “…”

He only shouted “So handsome,” the rest wasn’t him!!

Why was everyone staring at him?

Why!!!!

Yang You heard the voice on the court and excitedly patted Liu Yi beside him, “Yu’er praised me for being handsome, did you hear that? But who was he calling husband?”

Liu Yi retorted, “That was praising me, what’s there to praise about you? With your skills?”

Only Tang Wei looked at Yu Zhanrong on the sidelines, and then looked at Song Baiyan, who was also paying attention to Yu Zhanrong, thoughtfully.

Yu Zhanrong was annoyed by the staring and took a deep breath. “I only said ‘So handsome’! The rest wasn’t me,” and then he sat down.

He calmly lowered his head, opened his phone, and restarted the game, grabbing his red ears before entering the game.

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, everyone’s attention returned to the court, with only a small number of girls still secretly observing this side, occasionally showing satisfied smiles.

The cheers around him grew louder and louder. Yu Zhanrong could hear them even with his headphones on, so he quietly turned up the volume to keep himself from getting distracted.

Two games passed, and the sound on the court was a little quieter. He thought the time should be almost up.

Just as he was about to see if they were done playing, a phone was suddenly held out in front of him.

“Hello, can I add you on WeChat?”

Yu Zhanrong was stunned. What was going on?

Was he being hit on?

Following the phone, he looked at its owner, a very cute girl.

The girl’s eyes were big, and her expression was shy and expectant. Behind her were two friends staring straight at this side.

Would directly refusing in front of so many people make the little girl lose face?

But…

“Oh my god, he looked over, is he looking at me? I’m so shy.”

“Wow, I’m going crazy, he… he…”

“He’s walking over, walking over, every step is walking into my heart!”

“…”

Just as he was hesitating, the surroundings suddenly became restless. Hearing the excited voices of the girls beside him, Yu Zhanrong raised his head in astonishment.
