Chapter 49 - Dongjiang Town’s Basketball Team (2/2)
The rock and roll bar lived to its name; with rock and roll as the theme, its interior was fully furnished in a western flair.
There was not a big crowd in the bar at this point in time but there were still guests. After all, the only bar was in Xinjiang Town; people from the neighboring towns who wanted to relax had to come here.
To welcome Yun Jian into the basketball team, Li Xiangyi had already made arrangements earlier and booked a room for the team.
The teenagers were led to the room by a server once they entered the bar.
When they passed by the bar counter, a group of people who were dressed like delinquents blocked their way.
The boy who stood front and foremost and was dressed like a rich brat looked at Wen Rui lazily. There was a sense of hostility in his tone when he said, “Ay, Wen Rui, I heard that your basketball team recruited a new member? A girl, too, ain’t that true?”
There was an apparent halt in Wen Rui’s steps when he saw the boy.
As foes, their eyes were ablaze upon meeting each other.
Wen Rui met the boy’s gaze with equal hostility and spoke through his clenched teeth, “Zhang Jun, leave us alone. I don’t want to quarrel with you today.”
The boy named Zhang Jun was from Dongjiang Town, a town next to Xinjiang Town. He was also a ninth grader, attending Dongjiang Town Junior High School.
Coincidentally, Zhang Jun was also the captain of Dongjiang Town Junior High School’s basketball team.
The basketball friendly match that was scheduled a few days from now was between Xinjiang Town Junior High and Dongjiang Town Junior High.
Of course, there were only so many coincidences in this world. Zhang Jun most probably had already known that they were going to throw Yun Jian a welcoming party here and purposely made his way here to “join them”.
“Yo, yo, what do you mean? Wen Rui, we’re only here to see your team’s new member. Do you have to be so petty?”
Zhang Jun had a wayward vibe to him as he stretched his neck to scrutinize Yun Jian.
Then, he mocked again. “Oh look, this girl can play basketball too huh? Thin arms, thin legs, she’s pretty though. But don’t tell me that you guys are planning to let this vase play against us in our match? Don’t accuse us of bullying you guys and refuse to acknowledge your defeat then! Tsch, tsch…”
