Chapter 347: Zhou Chen Loses

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“In the end, Xia Chen emerged as the victor, leaving the responsibility of purchasing snacks in Zhou Chen’s hands.”

Zhou Chen remained silent. After the basketball match concluded, he departed with a visibly displeased expression.

Based on his knowledge of Zhou Chen, he doubted whether Zhou Chen would uphold his promise to buy snacks for the class. However, he hadn’t anticipated Xia Chen’s determination to bring this up in front of the entire class.

“Zhou Chen, since you’ve lost, it’s only fair that you honor your commitment.

Real men should be gracious in defeat.”

“Indeed, Zhou Chen, you’re quite popular in our class. Many girls often give you gifts. Are you telling us you can’t even afford snacks?”

A few of the boys pounded the table and chimed in, “Ladies, take heed. This stingy fellow isn’t suitable boyfriend material. You’ll have a tough time with him in the future.”

“Zhou Chen can’t even afford snacks. How will you survive with him? You’ll be eating plain cabbage every day.”

Zhou Chen typically held a moderate reputation in the class. His striking looks and good grades made him a favorite among both girls and teachers. Yet, his interactions with numerous girls had caused some boys to resent him.

It seemed the speaker had a discerning eye for Zhou Chen, as they were more attuned to his shortcomings.

For instance, during exams, if someone sought Zhou Chen’s help, he would simply ignore them.

When dining out with the boys, Zhou Chen never considered footing the bill.

Zhou Chen might have been forgiven if he came from a financially challenged background. However, he often dressed conspicuously, giving the impression of wealth.

Zhou Chen seemed to prioritize himself, spending his money on personal pursuits while being miserly with others.

Consequently, many whispered behind his back that Zhou Chen was incredibly

selfish.

They believed Zhou Chen’s challenge against Xia Chen stemmed from jealousy, as Xia Chen was on par with him in terms of both looks and academic performance.

With Xia Chen’s arrival, the class’s female population had developed a newfound adoration. Her status was poised to surpass Zhou Chen’s, which may have fueled his deliberate targeting of her.

However, none could have foreseen that Zhou Chen, the instigator, would actually lose.

Under the collective gaze of everyone, Zhou Chen’s face turned crimson.

He retorted angrily, “I’m just buying snacks; what’s the big deal? I didn’t bring any money today. I’ll get them for you in a couple of days.”

Someone interjected, “When exactly is ‘in two days’? You always renege on your promises. We’re still waiting for those snacks.”

Zhou Chen was secretly irritated. He could tell that these taunting individuals were generally unlikable.

“Tomorrow, I promise I’ll get them for you tomorrow, alright?” he said with exasperation.

Upon receiving Zhou Chen’s assurance, the others remained silent.

During the break, Xia Wan called Xia Chen aside.

The two siblings strolled around the campus.

“Brother, why didn’t you tell me about the bet?” Xia Wan inquired.

Xia Chen smiled. “When I arrived at school, I overheard some things. I knew you used to have a soft spot for Zhou Chen, often buying him things, but he didn’t appreciate it. Fortunately, you’ve come to your senses. I’m glad.”

His expression then turned serious. “However, I had to teach the person who bullied my sister a lesson. He needed to understand that he can’t bully just anyone.”

Xia Wan felt a warm surge within her. Her brother was taking action to help her find closure.

That afternoon, after school, Zhou Chen suddenly approached Xia Wan. “Xia Wan, I need to talk to you privately.”

Sensing something amiss, Xia Chen hurried over to Xia Wan.

Xia Wan responded, “There’s no need, brother. I’ll hear what he has to say.”

In a quiet corner, Zhou Chen fixed his gaze on Xia Wan. “Xia Wan, your brother’s basketball skills are outstanding. Why didn’t you tell me? Are you trying to embarrass me?”

Xia Wan chuckled in exasperation. “You’re the one who provoked my brother.

How could I have known you’d stoop so low?”

“My brother and I have never been in the same class before. How could I have known about his basketball skills?”

She continued, “Even if my brother excels in basketball, I’d rather see him focus on his studies in his spare time..”
