Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 39 - 38, Feng Ge, give up!
Chapter 39: 38, Feng Ge, give up!
After running five laps, Huo Feng and his ten brothers sat gasping for breath under the flag-raising platform, taking their rest.
In the vast playground, the eleven of them huddled together, each emanating a fierce aura, each with a menacing look in their eyes. At that moment, one could even say, without exaggeration, that the air around them seemed to be tinged with a dark presence.
Passing students simply didn’t dare to come within five meters of this group.
A girl, who had been watching the handsome guys from afar, also rightly left the scene after they completed their five laps.
After all, everyone knew that Huo Feng and his crew were always to be admired from a distance, and never to be trifled with.
These men possessed a magnetic charm as well as a wicked air about them; they were, in the end, an extremely attractive bunch.
Holding a bottle of mineral water, Huo Feng scrolled through his phone while taking sips. While the others were discussing the disastrous game, he was in the group chat with Pu Sangzhi’s three roommates.
Of course, he was full of resentment and didn’t shy away from blaming them in the group chat for not bringing Pu Sangzhi to watch the game.
"Seriously, when have we ever been trounced like this... we almost lost our shorts. For this defeat, who do you think should take the blame?"
In the front, Pan Bo couldn’t get over the basketball game.
It was particularly unfortunate that he had chosen today to wear SpongeBob SquarePants boxer shorts. Just after the defeat, amid the crowd’s teasing, his school trousers were yanked down a bit, exposing his yellow boxers and provoking a round of roaring laughter.
At that moment, Pan Bo was so embarrassed he wanted to curse.
So now, naturally, he became the most outspoken out of the eleven.
"I think Senzi didn’t perform well today! You were supposed to guard their old cat, but you let him score five baskets!"
Gu Yang commanded with an air of authority, "And in the second half, didn’t I purposely throw the ball to you? And it got intercepted by the old cat!"
"Hey... hey hey... can you blame me for that? The old cat was two sizes fatter than me, and nobody else was willing to guard him which ultimately left the job to me."
Zheng Sen defended himself, unconvinced, "I think today’s two games, it’s A-Chao who’s got to take the blame, getting blocked by the opposition so many times. Are you worthy of your height or what?"
Wang Chao: 1.82 meters, the tallest of the eleven!
However, Wang Chao also felt it was unjust, "Bro Feng, Bro Feng, say something. You didn’t make a single basket today."
As the blame was passed around, ultimately, the blame fell squarely on Huo Feng.
Huo Feng was busy lecturing Pu Sangzhi’s three roommates when he suddenly heard his brothers call out to him. He instinctively uttered a "hmm" in response.
And so, the blame solidly settled on Huo Feng’s head.
"Bro Feng, what were you thinking about while playing today?"
Pan Bo turned his head and looked at Huo Feng with furrowed brows, "This was a match you arranged, with betting stakes you set, and yet you weren’t even trying hard!"
"Hmm..." Huo Feng nodded.
"Hey, Bro Feng, what are you doing?"
Pan Bo waved his hand in front of Huo Feng’s eyes, finally bringing his attention back from his phone.
"Bro Feng, you’ve got to take responsibility. We lost so badly today, you’ve got to treat us to a meal no matter what," Pan Bo said unabashedly.
Huo Feng clicked his tongue and pushed Pan Bo’s head, "I didn’t lose? Didn’t run? Didn’t strip? You have the nerve?"
Pan Bo, feeling particularly aggrieved, rubbed his head and retorted to Huo Feng, "Bro Feng, you can’t back out now. How many passes did the guys give you, yet you did not make a single shot!"
"Yeah, Bro Feng, you were really out of it today. You even got benched in the second half, what was going on with you?" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"Did you get dumped?"
"Could it be the argument with Pu Sangzhi in the cafeteria at noon? You took your anger to the court, and then..."
The brothers speculated one after another, and—as expected—all hints eventually led back to Pu Sangzhi.
Unfortunately, all of Huo Feng’s thoughts were guessed correctly.
Therefore, Huo Feng "coughed" twice and quietly put away his phone...
After that, he told his ten brothers all about ’the top 200’, ’cheating’, ’Pu Sangzhi getting angry’, and the original intention behind organizing this basketball game.
Huo Feng said all this just to convey how difficult it was to pursue Pu Sangzhi.
Who knew, after listening to him, all ten brothers shook their heads in unison and then sang a song in chorus, "The cool night sky turns my longing for you into a river..."
Huo Feng: "Fuck!"
These sons of bitches actually sang "The Cool" to him!
"Shut up! Be careful or I’ll sew each of your mouths shut!" Huo Feng picked one close to him and shoved Pan Bo again.
Pan Bo wasn’t happy this time, rubbing his head and retorting, "Feng bro, why only push me? Clear as day, Yangzi was the one singing off-key!"
"That’s right, you all owe Dad an apology! And then, come up with ideas to help Dad chase his wife!"
While raging, Huo Feng pushed each head in turn, bullying everyone once over till he was satisfied.
"Feng bro, no matter how much you bully us, you can’t stop the fact that Pu Sangzhi has dumped you hard."
"Exactly!"
"You might as well change course and find a girl to date. Pu Sangzhi is too noble for you. She’s not a good match."
For a moment, all sorts of endless complaints came from Huo Feng’s brothers.
Amid their words, one message was clear — give up on Pu Sangzhi already!
Huo Feng, hearing this, was truly annoyed!
"What’s with all of you, spewing such crappy ideas! I asked you to help me devise a strategy on how to pursue Pu Sangzhi!" Huo Feng said loudly.
"It’s impossible," Pan Bo said.
"Yeah, better to give up earlier."
Not only did Gu Yang agree, but he also provided a detailed analysis, "I’ve said it long ago, her asking you to get into the top 200 was just to trouble you, to find a reason to reject you. Look, even when you made it into the top 200, she wouldn’t believe it and even got angry. Isn’t it obvious?"
Out of the ten brothers, Gu Yang had always been the one who spoke the most brutal truths.
So much so that he often got scorned and even beaten up by Huo Feng!
To put it bluntly, the words he had just said had severely affected Huo Feng’s mood.
Huo Feng was nearly ready to roll up his sleeves and start punching...
However, unexpectedly this time, several brothers spoke up for Gu Yang.
"Feng bro, this time I’m with Yangzi. You’re lost in the game, but the brothers see it clearly, Pu Sangzhi doesn’t like you, she might even dislike you a bit!" Zheng Sen said.
"I completely agree with the two of them."
Lin Yuhao joined in, "Feng bro, Pu Sangzhi carries the pride of a good student. She doesn’t actually give a damn about us underachievers, which of course includes you."
"Feng bro, don’t take offense at how we talk, but truthful words grate on the ears."
Pan Bo also nodded along, "If you don’t believe us, go have an honest talk with her. Don’t scare her, don’t threaten her, ask her if she likes you or dislikes you."
All of these brothers had skipped class, fought, got into trouble, and taken the blame together with Huo Feng.
Huo Feng could tell which of their words were jokes and which were heartfelt.
So at that moment, Huo Feng fell into a deep silence...
