I'm A Baller

Liu Li did not agree to go to see the goldfish with Wang Yan.

“What are you thinking about? My menses has just started.”

In an instant, the young master immediately thought of the idioms such as “bathing in blood and fighting bravely” and “eating raw meat and drinking blood”. He felt a little disgusted and shivered.

“What are you thinking about? Little lecherous woman, I plan to take you to see my alma mater!”

“Ho ho ho!”

Looking at the fake decent Gouzi, Liu Li grinned and pretended to believe him.

“Alright then, go go go!”

The two of them returned to the parking lot and sat in the Wrangler.

Liu Li suggested excitedly, “Let’s go to No. 2 High School first, then go to the experimental school. Let’s take a look!”

She was not particularly keen on shopping, and basically there was nothing much in Gu Jiao. Gouzi’s suggestion was obviously much more interesting.

After turning into the road, the No. 2 High School’s gate appeared in front of them in less than three minutes.

During the winter break, the main gate was locked tightly. The guard stuck his head out and looked at the Wrangler.

“What are you doing?”

“Uncle, Happy New Year!” Wang Yan got out of the car and initiated to shove a box of Zhonghua over. “We came back to visit our alma mater.”

However, the uncle did not buy it. “Wait a minute! Why haven’t I seen you before?”

Wang Yan did not know whether to laugh or cry. Sir, are you a retired scout?

Just as he was about to explain, Liu Li poked her head out from the front passenger seat and waved with a smile. “Uncle Liu, it’s me!”

“Aiyo, Little Liu Li?!”

The moment the uncle saw Liu Li, his attitude changed drastically. “I haven’t seen you for two to three years. Is this your partner?”

“Yes!”

Liu Li nodded heavily. “Bring him back to take a look.”

“Okay, okay!”

The uncle beamed. He opened the door and did not forget to remind her, “There’s nothing to see in winter. You can’t enter the office building. If It’s cold, go to the teaching building and stay there…”

“Okay, thank you!”

Wang Yan held the cigarette in his hand and was dumbfounded. He felt that he was just a sidekick.

Driving the Wrangler to the field, he asked bitterly, “Little girl, you still have some face?”

“Of course!”

The young lady was extremely pleased with herself. She raised her eyebrows in high spirits and said, “I am the legend and pride of No. 2 High School!”

Wang Yan did not understand and was about to ask, but Sanwan pulled him out of the car and started to walk around.

“This is our teaching building. Our class is on the fourth floor…”

“This is our school’s auditorium. My first performance on the stage was here…”

“This building is our toilet, but I didn’t get to use it. It was just built last year…”

Wang Yan looked at the three-story toilet building and felt a little surreal.

The campus was cold, quiet, and lonely.

The gray building didn’t have any warmth, but Liu Li’s gaze on it was very warm.

“Do you miss the high school life?”

Liu Li was stunned by the question, and then she shook her head with uncertainty.

“Actually, there’s no difference between high school and the life now. It’s not better, and it’s not easier either. You only take a few cultural classes, and then you spend a lot of time practicing dancing…

“If I have to distinguish, I didn’t even have any friends back then. Of course, it’s better now.”

“So, you’re not here to reminisce, but to let me feel your past?”

A flash of understanding rose in young master’s heart, and he smiled as he held her hand tightly.

“Then, did you have any stories in your high school life that left a deep impression on you?”

“Such as?” Liu Li tilted her head.

“Such as a handsome boy who wrote you a love letter, a girl who was jealous of you, anything that made you angry or moved…”

“Who still writes love letters these days!”

Liu Li ridiculed him, and then recalled thoughtfully, “But I think someone confessed to me on QQ?”

“If it’s a confession, why did you say ‘i think’?”

“It’s because I didn’t read it much! It was such a long article, and it was sent by someone I didn’t know well. It just popped out and was deleted!”

“You were fully focused on dancing?”

“Yeah! At that time, I really didn’t have the energy to think about anything else. It was too tiring. It was hard to take the Dance Group exam in the county, it’s even harder than to take the exam of Tsinghua University.”

“Oh my God, is your puberty that depressing? I finally know why you were so…”

Before Wang Yan could finish his words, Liu Li pounced on him and interrupted him.

“What are you talking about! Shut up! Stinky dog!”

In less than two seconds, Wang Yan pressed her against the wall and kissed her so hard that her face was full of confusion.

Just as they were having fun, the door of the teaching building was suddenly pushed open. Liu Li quivered and pricked up her ears.

Wang Yan was also listening attentively. He heard two footsteps and a detailed conversation.

The two of them looked at each other absurdly. They felt it was very magical.

They were visiting their alma mater in the middle of winter. How could they meet someone who shared the same interest in such an artistic thing?

Wang Yan and Liu Li were in the corridor on the right side of the first floor. The two people who came later happened to turn in this direction and bumped into them from a distance.

It was a man and a woman in their early twenties. They looked like a couple — distance wise they were very close to each other, shoulder to shoulder.

But they were not too close, for they did not hold hands.

This was at a very subtle state. It should be the last stage of the pursuit, or the beginning of the relationship. To put it in a gangster way, the distance had not been lost, and they were still pretending to be reserved.

The boy was tall and handsome, and he had a very warm temperament.

The girl was beautiful and reserved, and her temperament was cold.

They looked very compatible.

Wang Yan smiled gently at the other party, showing friendliness.

But the two of them had a very strange reaction — they stared at Liu Li with complicated expressions.

Classmate?!

Or… to go further, a former suitor?

A guess flashed through Wang Yan’s mind. He gently squeezed Liu Li’s hand, waiting for her decision.

The Sister Li now was a person who had experienced big scenes. She waved her hand and greeted calmly, “Hello, Old Classmate.”

It wasn’t “How are you?”, so only one of them was a classmate?

Wang Yan seemed to be playing a detective game as he watched and guessed with interest.

Then, it was the guy who responded.

“Eh, what a coincidence… Liu Li, when did you come back? I didn’t see you at the class reunion… Ah, is that your boyfriend?”

The boy’s thoughts were clearly a little messy, and his words didn’t add up.

“Yes.”

Liu Li nodded naturally, “My boyfriend, Wang Yan.”

After a pause, she realized that Wang Yan didn’t intend to take the initiative to control the situation, so she replied to the other party with a question.

“I didn’t attend much class in high school, and I wasn’t close to my classmates. Thinking that it was meaningless, I didn’t go.”

How straightforward and proud!

She was telling directly: I didn’t want to go, because we’re not that close.

Wang Yan actually didn’t care if Liu Li had a normal social life. Even if there were suitors at the class reunion, it wasn’t a big deal.

It was normal for good girls to be liked. It didn’t mean anything.

But she just didn’t want to go. Moreover, she drew the line so clearly. This surprised Wang Yan and made him secretly happy.

“Oh. oh…”

That boy was obviously not a quick-witted person. After answering, he didn’t know what to say. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little cold.

The girl timely interjected, “Liu Li, you’re becoming more and more beautiful.”

“Thank you.”

Liu Li nodded her head to express her gratitude. However, she did not return the courtesy. Instead, she took the initiative to wave goodbye. “Goodbye then. I wish you all a good time.”

Smiling, she looked at Wang Yan. This way, she pulled the young master forward and brushed past him.

Every word, action, and move revealed an indescribable free and easy manner.

The young master looked at the proud young lady and felt a deep sense of gratification as if he was an old father. After following me for half a year, Sanwan had grown up very quickly..

Yes, it’s all because of my good education!

The young master happily glanced at the golden couple and discovered some very interesting details, so his mood became even happier.

According to the normal development, the two parties should have parted here, each doing their own things.

However, at the moment when they passed each other, perhaps it was because he was intimidated by Liu Li’s aura, the boy suddenly said, “Er, it’s rare to meet you. Why don’t we have lunch together? Er, my treat…”

Straightforward?

No, he was a straight man with a low EQ.

Wang Yan didn’t even need to look back to imagine the girl’s expression.

He wanted to laugh, but he was too embarrassed to do so. He held back his laughter and continued to let Liu Li deal with him.

Miss Sanwan looked at the girl and pursed her lips into a smile. There was a hidden meaning in her gaze before she waved her hand at the boy.

“Appreciate your kind intention. Go ahead and do your thing!”

The girl’s expression turned cold. Her entire person was filled with a reserved and distant feeling.

Sadly, the boy still did not realize it, and his face was obviously filled with regret.

“Oh, oh, then goodbye…”

After they left, Wang Yan could not help but laugh. “Is he the silly boy who confessed to you on QQ?”

After leaving their line of sight, Liu Li returned to her silly self. She tilted her head and asked, “Why did you guess it was him?”

“He looks like someone who would do such a silly thing! Haha!”

“Hehe, it was indeed him who sent a bunch of messages, but it might not be a confession. Anyway, I didn’t see it!”

“Do you need to see it with your own eyes? You can judge it based on your women’s sixth sense.”

“I don’t have a sixth sense. I was still young at that time, so I didn’t know!”

“You’re still young now… But you’ve learned all thirty-six moves…”

“D*mn hooligan, you’re asking for a beating!”

Once they got into a fight, she was that spiritual energy girl again. She was laughing and playing with Wang Yan.

Wang Yan was afraid that she would get angry, so he clamped her under his arm and didn’t let her move. He then changed the topic.

“I’m very puzzled. That girl is beautiful, elegant, and has a good figure. How could she pick up your dog leftovers?”

“Pfft! You’re the dog!”

After chiding Wang Yan a few more rounds then only did she slowly start talking about those things.

“That girl’s name is Li Yunyin. She was the belle of our year’s art class, and she got into the Central Music…”

“So it’s her!”

Wang Yan knew who she was the moment he heard it. In the first three years of the No. 2 High School, only two people managed to get into a top art school. One of them was Liu Li, and the other was Li Yunyin.

The Experimental High School that Wang Yan attended did not have an art class, let alone an art school.

The city was small, so any news would spread quickly. Therefore, Wang Yan had heard of Liu Li and that senior a long time ago.

“Don’t interrupt! Are you listening?”

The young lady was not satisfied with her Gouzi’s understanding of the opposite sex of the same grade, so she suddenly felt a little jealous.

Wang Yan immediately raised his hand in surrender. “Okay, okay, okay. Please continue.”

“That boy’s name is Duanmu Qinwu. He’s a classmate of mine. I heard that his family is very rich and has always been the school’s most powerful…”

“Wait a minute, wait a minute.”

Wang Yan had to interrupt again.

“We have a girl named Duanmu Chuge in our experimental…”

Liu Li rolled her eyes. “How can we find a second family with such a rare surname like Duanmu in Gu Jiao? It’s obviously his sister!”

No wonder!

The brother and sister were both so good-looking. It would be abnormal if they were not from the same family.

Moreover, that middle school twenty’s name sounded like it came from an artistic father.

“Then why aren’t the two of them in the same school?”

Liu Li’s eyes widened. “Duanmu Qinwu only transferred to the No. 2 High School at the beginning of his second year of high school. It’s said that he got his Experimental classmate pregnant. How could you not know about such a sensational matter?”

How would I know!

I was just a little loser back then, and I was thousands of miles away from the circle of the second generation…

Eh? That’s not right!

“When the incident happened, I was only in the third year of middle school. Don’t try to confuse the fact that you ate a young grass like me!”

Wang Yan acted like a hooligan with conviction, but he was hammered twice again.

Of course, the thick-skinned brother dog was not afraid. On the contrary, he had the leisure to continue gossiping.

“Tsk tsk, I really didn’t expect that silly guy would have such a glorious experience…”

Liu Li curled her lips. “A low EQ doesn’t mean that he can’t find a girlfriend, okay? Duanmu has always been pursued by girls. At least his sister has a strong partner.”

“Is he very flirtatious?”

“I don’t think so. He’s the kind who cares about all the girls. He’s such in my impression of him. I didn’t have much contact with them.”

The young master sighed. “A winner in life…”

“Are you very envious?”

“No!”

Brother Doggie firmly denied it.

What was there to be envious about that kind of silly guy who relied entirely on passive output?

I was indeed a skilled player!

As he silently bragged, Wang Yan could be considered to have a preliminary understanding of Liu Li’s high school status.

To sum it up — the school Belle’s crush, the goddess in the eyes of the little boys.

In fact, Liu Li was not the most beautiful type, but she had an amiable temperament. The feeling of the girl next door did not cause pressure. She was pure and not a slut, and was the easiest to pursue.

However, because she wanted to take the Dance Group exam, her high school social circle was so simple that she did not have many friends.

All of her best friends came from the group of the little friends from the Dance Group who shared the common interest and thinking.

This was a good thing, which meant that Wang Yan didn’t have to worry about protecting her high school circle of classmates, nor did he have to face her suitors.

“You were really obedient in high school, so I’ll reward you!”

“Thank you, Hubby, mua!”

While the two of them were kissing, Duanmu and Li Yunyin were watching from the corridor. At the same time, they were hit by the stench of love.

Only then did Duanmu remember to take care of Li Yunyin’s feelings. However, Yang Yin quietly took half a step back and suggested, “Let’s go.”

Wang Yan returned to the car with Sanwan in his arms. He found an unknown Lexus model parked next to his car. It looked more expensive than a Wrangler.

The young master smiled and said, “Sure enough, she is a winner in life… but isn’t that Li Yunyin too miserable? Is her character your spare tire?”

“Hehe, don’t talk nonsense!”

The young lady smiled with a little pride and spoke up for the girl.

“Actually, Li Yunyin is quite difficult to woo, but Duanmu’s conditions are really good, and he’s also an alumnus… I think the two of them can get together.”

She was almost done, but she bumped into you at the critical moment. What bad luck.

Wang Yan secretly laughed and stopped worrying about irrelevant people.

The most important purpose of coming out today was to understand more about Sanwan and continue to stabilize their relationship.

After thinking for a while, the young master started to be naughty again. “I wonder, that girl’s figure is better than yours, and she’s tall enough to learn music. How did you suppress her?”

“Hmph!”

Liu Li was not angry. She raised her chin proudly. “I won’t tell you!”

It seemed that there was a secret behind this.

The No. 2 High School’s status of Sanwan was not that simple. It had an influence that exceeded common sense.

Wang Yan was very curious, but he was not in a hurry to investigate.

Most women were shellfish. If they were boiled in water, they would be finished.

Good women were mermaids. They could not be eaten directly. They had to wait for her to grow legs.

Liu Li was a good woman that could be tasted slowly, so the theorist was not in a hurry at all. He fastened her seatbelt and dragged her straight to Experimental High School.

“Let’s go, I’ll show you my alma mater!”

“Okay!”

Miss Sanwan’s eyes were bright, and she was extremely happy.

“I want to get to know the you in high school, the you in junior high school, the you in primary school, all of you!”

Wang Yan was extremely touched. If it wasn’t for her period… then there would still be crabs. Sigh!

When they reached the place, they entered and walked around. It was Liu Li’s turn to ask Wang Yan all sorts of questions.

The Experimental High School was actually a very interesting school. There were more stories, more conflicts, more rich second-generation children, and more beautiful girls.

Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with Wang Yan.

The young master very modestly described his “low-profile” in high school to her, and he received praise and admiration from the young lady.

“So you were so calm and low-profile in high school…”

Yes, yes!

If he didn’t keep a low profile, he would be beaten to death by those rich second-generation kids!

Gu Jiao’s people were tough, and gang fights happened from time to time. However, Wang Yan’s most extreme behavior was to occasionally go to an internet cafe and stay up all night.

He knew his own limits, didn’t offend people, and didn’t reveal his feelings for He Meng. No one would be interested to take the initiative to target him.

The most excessive thing was the ridicule from Liu Weilong and the others. At that time, he held it in and let it pass.

But now that he thought about it, it seemed like a dream.

Liu Weilong, who once he needed to avoid, was now just a younger brother to him.

If he were to clash with Liu Weilong again, the more he hold in, the angrier he would get. Taking a step back, he would swing the table and chair — he would be done for!

All the changes came from the system.

Every time he thought about it, Wang Yan would feel grateful and happy from the bottom of his heart.

Holding Liu Li’s small hand, he wandered around the empty high school campus that had never belonged to him. The young master’s mood became calmer and calmer. Gradually, he was immersed in an ethereal state where he could not think of anything.

It was as if only a moment had passed, but also as if a long time had passed. A golden light flashed in the system panel. With a light ‘ding’ sound, Wang Yan was awakened from his silence.
