Professor Li clapped his hand and announced solemnly, “I hope incidents like this would not happen again. There are five more days left until submission. Everyone needs to work harder and persevere. After we’re done, we’ll have a celebratory dinner; and you will graduate. However, we must handle today’s incident. I decided to take one thousand dollars out from Yang Chen’s reward and give it to Qin Ze instead.”
Everyone had no opinions; anyway, it was not their money being taken away.
However, from Yang Chen’s gaze, Qin Ze could feel the rascal’s deep hatred.
At 9:30, Qin Ze told Professor Li about his lesson before leaving the room.
At 12:30, after two periods of stock investment lessons, it was lunchtime; and all the students rushed out of the classroom. In the blink of an eye, the room was empty.
Once Qin Ze stepped out of the classroom, a muscular fellow chased after him and pulled his waist towards the classroom. That posture looked as if he was going to r*pe a virtuous woman. Qin Ze relaxed his tensed body and allowed the lower half of his body to be dragged into the classroom.
Zhao Baliang pressed Qin Ze onto a seat and gave a crappy military salute. He boomed, “Reporting to Room Chief, there is a traitor amongst us.”
Liu Ziqiang and Li Liang sat straight on the table, giving a disdainful look.
Upon hearing that, Room Chief Li Liang slammed the table and said in satisfaction, “You’ve handled it very well.”
The old chauffeur, Qin Ze, was angered. “Get lost! Your sister’s the traitor.”
Li Liang huffed. “How dare you talk back to us? Second Battalion Commander, where’s your Italian cannon? Third Battalion Commander, keep your mortal cannon on standby.”
Liu Ziqiang had belt-tightening coldness on his face while Zhao Baliang was laughing weirdly.
Helplessly, Qin Ze said, “Why is the organization looking for me? I have joined the underground gang for three years and have been super loyal as I vow to protect the country with my life and obey to the organization’s arrangements. I have never taken anything from the civilians.”
Even though he did not know what his roommates were playing at, he still played along.
“Then, let me ask you: what are the house rules for our 303 Dormitory?” Li Liang said solemnly and slammed with all his might.
After a slight hesitation, Qin Ze said honestly, “Four men with one heart. The status of our friendship is as solid as a mountain. In our entire life, the Fifth Maiden. The first person who stops being single will die first.”
The girls arranging the books looked back in shock. Qin Ze was so embarrassed until he wanted to hide his face.
Li Liang patted Qin Ze’s shoulders and said with a stern look, “Since you know that, then I shan’t say much. Brother, rest in peace. In our next life, we’ll still be buddies.”
Liu Ziqiang acted like he was pulling out his Italian cannon.
Qin Ze was shocked.” Chotto matte1! Organization, please check thoroughly. I did not foul 303 Dormitory’s rules. I was framed. I’m still single now; we’re all single. Why should single people put other single people in a difficult position? Hey, hey, you’re really taking it out…? I, I—Long Aotian—am not convinced.”
Li Liang sneered. “Then, what was the deal with the phone call yesterday? The evidence is clear. You don’t have to lie. Go in peace.”
Qin Ze finally understood and kept rolling his eyes. “Organization’s research work is too careless and should be improved. That was my sister and not someone that I can bang so I’m still part of the team. Second Battalion Commander, please retract your Italian cannon, and Third Battalion Commander, please keep your mortal cannon.”
“Really?”
“Realer than gold.”
Li Liang was filled with smiles as he said, “the organization has misunderstood you. Brother-in-law, you have been shocked. Truly shocked.”
“Hey, hey. This name is not correct.”
“Brother-in-law, don’t be anxious. Listen to your Brother-in-law’s explanation. Confucius once said food and lust are natural. The Book of Poetry said that men desired for beautiful women. In conclusion, bachelors are failures in society.
“After careful consideration, we feel that the dormitory’s rules are against our morals and should be removed and revised. For our country’s honor and society’s development, we should actively work towards increasing the birth rate of our country. So, Comrade Qin Ze, for our country and our people, you should actively recommend the organization to your amazing sister with long legs and a perky butt.”
“Room Chief makes sense. I agree.”
“I agree, too.”
Zhao Baliang and Liu Ziqiang both agreed.
“What, what nonsense…” Qin Ze was taken aback. Then, he suddenly recovered his senses. Heck, he was set up.
“Reporting to Organization, I have something to say. It is our duty to contribute to the organization. However, Room Chief, you’re known as an experienced chauffeur and had banged countless immoral women. You’re a thorough rascal; how can I push my sister towards the fire?”
Li Liang was furious. “How dare you say I’m a rascal? Second Battalion Commander, where’s your damn Italian cannon?”
“No, no, no. Don’t misunderstand. I’m not targeting you.” Qin Ze explained calmly, “I meant everyone present is a rascal.”
Don’t think that only you know how to set people up!
“You’re asking for a beating!”
“Let’s end him.”
“My knife has been frustratedly waiting for this moment.”
The four people played and quarreled as they ran out of the classroom. The sky was gray without a sun; it was a cloudy and windy day. In the hot summer, this was the most comfortable day.
The three of them ate their lunch in the canteen. Out of the blue, the Internet addict—Liu Ziqiang—suddenly suggested playing basketball.
This suggestion was agreed on by all.
In 303 Dormitory, other than Zhao Baliang who insisted on running in the morning every day; the other three were not youngsters who loved sports so they would not have a basketball in their room. Luckily, the fellows in the neighboring 304 Dormitory loved to play basketball, and their Room Chief—Wang Tiancheng—was a basketball fanatic.
Room Chief, Wang Tiancheng, was shirtless as he ate his takeout and was leading his roommates in their game. The game that they played was different from the strategic game that Qin Ze and the rest played; their game was very time-consuming.
“Old Wang, do you want to play ball?” Zhao Baliang knocked on the door in a low and muffled voice.
Wang Tiancheng’s nickname was ‘Neighbor Old Wang’, ‘Old Wang’ for short.
“After I pass this round. Our room was just about to head to the basketball court later. Today isn’t hot; it’ll be a waste if we don’t play.” Old Wang’s eyes were glued to his computer screen. His five features were decent, but it was a pity that his face was filled with scabs and scars from pimples.
Qin Ze took out his phone and checked the time. He rushed, “Hurry up, I still have something on later.”
He could only play for a maximum of forty minutes before he had to ‘work’.
Old Wang turned around and was elated. He happily joked, “Aiyo, face-slapping legend. It was the first time someone dared to mock Zhang Mingyu. You’re famous in our faculty.”
Old Wang was a very sociable person and was able to please everyone. He had a good way of building social connections; he was pretty close to Qin Ze who did not even stay in the dormitory often.
Five minutes later, the eight people from the two dormitories walked to the basketball court together.
The basketball court was surrounded by metal nets and had a very big surface area. At this point, the students on court were sweating as if it was raining in their shorts and basketball shoes. With this cooling weather, there were quite a few people playing basketball.
SUFE had a pretty expensive basketball stadium, but it was not open to the public normally. Usually, it would only be open during the basketball competition between faculties.
They chose a basketball hoop that no one was playing. After practicing for a while, they started their competition.
Old Wang had half the ability of a basketball team player. As they spent a lot of time together, the other three roommates also knew a trick or two up their sleeves. Based on their skills, they were certain to crush Qin Ze’s 303 Dormitory. Hence, at the start, they already lost to the stronger team.
Both parties were playing in half the court; it was squeezy for four people so the logical way was to have three people on a team, but they had eight in total.
Li Liang started the ball and passed to Qin Ze. Qin Ze symbolically dribbled for a while before passing to Liu Ziqiang.
After Liu Ziqiang received the ball, he was quickly defended. Zhao Baliang suddenly rushed behind him and hollered, “Pass the ball.”
Liu Ziqiang passed the ball to him, and after getting it, Zhao Baliang roared. He was outside the two-pointer zone but started his three steps towards the hoop. He had a burly build and thick waist; when he sprinted, he was like a human bullet that could not be stopped. Old Wang tried to defend against him but was bumped away.
In three steps, he directly went under the hoop and bent his arm to push the ball up the hoop. Kuang! The ball hit against the board but no goal.
I knew it would turn out like this!
Qin Ze slapped his forehead.
Old Wang ran towards the basketball board like a tiger and conveniently bumped against Li Liang’s small body, causing him to almost fall. He dribbled the ball to the three-pointer line and directly shot it in.
The basketball flew in a perfect arc and entered the net.
“How can it enter like that?” Li Liang cursed ‘f*ck’.
Arrogantly, Old Wang said, “Please call me the Shooting Legend.”
Three-pointer shoots were Old Wang’s specialty. According to his words, he only practiced three-pointer shots when shooting. Within the area, he only practiced dunking. On the court, these two breath-taking tactics were the ones that could attract girls the most, with dunking being the coolest. He did not have enough jumping power for dunking so he could only back down and practice three-pointer shots.
The party that shot the ball started the ball. After passing the ball a few times, the inner area was guarded strictly by Qin Ze and his team. Hence, the ball was passed to Old Wang again. He took a deep breath in and ignored Li Liang, who was weak in jumping. He jumped and shot, but this time, the ball did not go in. The ball hit against the board.
Zhao Baliang’s build was legendary beneath the board, and he could snatch the ball without a doubt. He threw the ball to Liu Ziqiang, who was near the three-pointer line. After Liu Ziqiang dribbled the ball out of the line and threw it towards the board rapidly. He jumped and shot; without a doubt… it did not get in.
“Throw the ball back to me. I’m below the board.” This time, Zhao Baliang—who did not manage to snatch the ball—lamented towards Liu Ziqiang.
“You have two people guarding you, but there’s none on me,” Liu Ziqiang explained guiltily.
“Don’t talk nonsense. They’re going to shoot.” Qin Ze interrupted the duo’s argument and sighed in his heart. Liu Ziqiang was considerably the one with the best foundation in their dormitory, and Zhao Baliang had a good build but did not know how to play basketball. Li Liang, who had bad stamina due to his drinking habits, could barely even touch the ball a few times in a year. As for himself… Big Brother should not laugh at Second Brother as he was similar to Li Liang.
“Qin Ze, defend against Old Wang. Let’s switch.” Li Liang ran over and wanted to switch positions with him. He explained, “You’re taller than me, and my stamina isn’t good. I can’t keep up with him.”
He spoke as if my stamina was very good.
Qin Ze grumbled in his heart but agreed to switch with Li Liang without hesitation.
A youngster from the opponent’s team dribbled into the inner circle, but Zhao Baliang had his arms wide open and like a big, black bear going for his prey. He halted his attacking line with much power.
That fellow looked at the formidable big build and decisively passed the ball to Old Wang who was outside the three-pointer line.
At this point, Qin Ze just switched positions and was not near him yet, which gave Old Wang the space to shoot.
Old Wang jumped and shot the ball in an accurate posture. Under everyone’s watch, the ball slowly rose.
In Qin Ze’s eyes, the brown basketball turned in the air and away from Old Wang’s hands. It rose and was on its first step to drawing a perfect arc. Suddenly, there was a thought in his head. Perhaps I can block the ball.
