They were now at the very edge of the auditorium, next to which was the corridor leading outside the basketball court. Qin Siyu and the others were conducting their final rehearsal in this corridor behind.
And it was obvious that Qin Siyu’s screams were also mixed in with the screams just now.
Although the scene was very lively, Yan Han and others still heard those voices clearly.
After exchanging glances with several boys, Yan Han, whose first reaction was that something had happened, stood up first and ran down the stairs.
The class monitor and others followed closely behind. Due to the design of the corridor behind, there was a short staircase with about four or five steps. When they arrived, they saw a girl from their class lying at the bottom of the stairs. The others either surrounded the girl with concern or stood on the stairs with a fierce look on their faces.
Opposite them, at the top of the stairs, there were several girls standing, also wearing cheerleading clothes, and there was also a boy wearing a school uniform, who looked a bit effeminate judging by his attire and posture.
These people were their opponents today, the cheerleaders from Class 3 of Liberal Arts.
“What happened?” Yan Han walked over and was the first to notice that the girl who fell to the ground had scraped her elbows and knees. She must have fallen quite hard and now she couldn’t even get up. The others glared fiercely at the girls from Class 3 on the stairs. What had happened was actually self-evident.
When the students in Class 3 turned around, they saw Yan Han followed by other boys from their class, especially Lin Jianlu. Their faces changed and they all ran away dejectedly after saying “She fell down by herself”.
Qin Siyu stared at those people without saying anything. It was the other girls who explained to Yan Han: “Just now those people were gossiping. Not only did they say that our class couldn’t win, but they also slandered you. We were so angry that we started to curse at them. We didn’t expect that they would actually attack Fang Yufei directly. When they saw her standing by the stairs, they even pushed her down!”
Fang Yufei was the girl who had gone out with them on the weekends before. She was now grimacing in pain, and she didn’t forget to curse: “Those people are so arrogant, brothers and sisters, help me get revenge!”
“Let’s not talk about this for now.”
Yan Han did not stop those people from leaving. Instead he went over to check on Fang Yufei’s injuries. Fang Yufei said, “My arms and legs hurt a lot, but I didn’t hit anything else. Fortunately, there are only a few steps on this staircase, otherwise my brain would have exploded!”
The others were relieved to see that she could still joke, but rolling down the stairs was a big deal, and no one could be sure whether she had broken any bones. In the end, the class monitor could only ask a few classmates to go to the school hospital to ask the teacher on duty to come take a look, and then continued to talk to others about the situation.
“Those people look so quiet and gentle, but I didn’t expect they were so dirty-mouthed.” The pain had subsided a little now, so Fang Yufei didn’t forget to curse while waiting for rescue.
“What did they say?” the boys who came later asked.
“From what we heard, they said that the boys in our class were all useless losers, that we were not good-looking and were not fit to be cheerleaders, and that Brother Yan… In short, they said a lot of bad things!”
In fact, the seats for the two teams were exactly on the opposite sides of the gymnasium, so they could be said to have kept to themselves. However, the gymnasium was designed so that the corridors at the back were connected, and the place Qin Siyu and the others chose to rehearse was very close to where the cheerleading team of Class 3 rehearsed.
It was so close that as soon as they arrived in the empty corridor, before they even started rehearsing, they heard the people from Class 3 slandering their class.
“But let me make it clear first, we just got angry after hearing what they said and cursed back. They were the first to start.” Several girls in cheerleading uniforms started talking at the same time:
“Yes, it was Fang Yufei who was pushed by that sissy! He is so shameless. Not only did he fight with us, but he also took advantage of the geographical location…”
“Yes, otherwise it’s hard to say who will win or lose!”
“…”
Yan Han had the urge to scratch his head at this moment, but this action was a bit indecent and not suitable for this scene.
He didn’t need to think to know what those people must have been saying about him. Things like: he just relied on his good looks to mingle with boys and get along well with them. Or he was not reserved and was shameless.
Another thing must be that she was a girl but she had to wear a basketball uniform and play basketball with boys, which was simply the lowest of the low, blah blah.
Anyway, people had been saying these things ever since he started practicing with the squad leader and the others.
Although no one had ever said it to his face, Yan Han was not stupid and had heard a little about the rumors in the school.
There were even more outrageous things, saying that he could cast a spell, that Lin Jianlu switched from liberal arts to science just for him, and that he started playing basketball just for him, that he was Bao Si[1], that he was the troublemaker who brought down the country…
That little joke was so convoluted that Yan Han almost thought he was living in some feudal ancient time.
No wonder the girls in their class got angry.
“Thank you sisters for helping me vent my anger.” Yan Han put his palms together and half bowed, expressing his gratitude while asking: “Did the other party really start the fight first?”
“It’s absolutely true. I don’t believe there are surveillance cameras there. We are not rude or barbaric people.” The girls said, “Besides, fighting is not allowed in school!”
Yan Han looked around and it seemed that there really was a camera at the corner of the corridor. He immediately patted Lin Jianlu on the shoulder and said, “Big Brother Lin, how does the school usually handle fights?”
Lin Jianlu nodded to him and said, “I understand.”
Then he said to the injured Fang Yufei: “I will give you an explanation for this matter.”
“…”
She didn’t know why, but when Big Brother Lin said in person that he would give her an explanation, Fang Yufei felt that her injury was not in vain, and her anger instantly disappeared by more than half.
But then the sisters, whose eyes had turned red with anger, thought of another problem – Fang Yufei was injured, but their class only selected six cheerleaders at the beginning, and the school stipulated that there must be at least six people on the field. After all, this thing will also be awarded later to give extra points to the class.
…So who would replace the injured Fang Yufei now?
Although Fang Yufei was injured, they had to fight for their dignity. Today’s game was not only a basketball game with Class 3, but the competition among the cheerleaders had also entered a fierce stage, so they could not give up no matter what.
Not only that, they also wanted to beat up the people on the opposite side and let those gossipers know that their class was not without people!
Everyone present thought of this question almost at the same time, looked at each other, and finally turned their eyes to Yan Han.
…Who else could do this except Brother Yan himself?!
Yan Han: …
???
“Well, I just remember that when we bought clothes, the merchant gave us an extra set of clothes. Qin Siyu, where did you put them?” The squad leader suddenly thought of it.
“In the audience seats, I’ll get it right away!” Qin Siyu said as she trotted forward to get the extra clothes.
“Wait a minute, uh…” After trying to keep Qin Siyu, Yan Han said to the others in a choked voice, “The main thing is that I can’t dance your dance either.”
“It’s okay, the moves are very simple, just follow us. Besides, Brother Yan, you can stand at the front of the team, you don’t even have to move! Just stand there! Leave the dancing to us!” The other girls suddenly became excited and said that their Brother Yan’s looks were enough to make him a beautiful sight just by standing there, he didn’t need to move.
She even wanted to choreograph a dance for Yan Han.
Fang Yufei even completely forgot about the pain. If she hadn’t dared to move, she would have jumped up excitedly and said, “Besides, Brother Yan, you are the king of street dancing! Don’t be scared, just do it!”
Yan Han: “…”
Yan Han also wanted to vent Fang Yufei’s anger, but not in this way!
In fact, he really wanted to ask, after the game is over, can he vent his anger by putting a sack over the boy who pushed Fang Yufei and beating him up?
It was a pity that the focus of others had been diverted, especially the girls including Fang Yufei, who all became excited: “Brother Yan will definitely kill everyone instantly once she shows up, hahaha!”
It could be said that Qin Siyu was extremely talented in sports, as she had run back in such a short time, waving the extra top and skirt in her hands.
Yan Han had a completely sad face at this time, gritting his teeth in hatred.
By the way, he also wanted to know which store was so busy that if you bought six sets of clothes, they would give away one extra set for free. Are all the business people so enthusiastic nowadays?
The squad leader immediately explained this problem to him: because the clothes were too cheap and of poor quality, the store owner was afraid that some of them would be worn out, so he gave them an extra set so that they could wear it as a makeshift outfit.
“You want cookies for clothes that cost more than ten yuan a set?” The monitor smacked his lips and said helplessly, “There’s nothing we can do. The class budget is limited.”
Yan Han: “…”
