Chapter 428 - Side Story 3: Moving Away (1/2)
For the following few weeks, Wei Jun Hao would continue to accompany his friend in his basketball practice. He did not want to return to his aunt's house and stay alone and thought that staying with Zhang's family for a while was not a bad decision.
Anyway, he would always have someone to talk to if he stayed. Plus, the food was good and the Zhang family members treated him very well.
That evening, everyone else had come up with an excuse not to come and joined the additional practice at Zhang's residence. Because of that, Wei Jun Hao was tortured by his friend for an on-on-one game for more than an hour.
In the end, Wei Jun Hao was too tired that he was unable to move. He stared at the ball with an intense gaze as if he had a deep grudge with the ball.
They were done with the basketball tournament last year and they were about to graduate from high school in a few months, but this basketball maniac would not stop asking him to play basketball.
It was not as if Wei Jun Hao was unable to reject Zhang Yu Han. However, once he saw that his friend would practice by himself, he would often have a change of heart. He was kind enough to accompany Zhang Yu Han for a round or two, but this person would not stop bullying him.
He had played against Zhang Yu Han for many times, but he was unable to win once! Of course, he was bitter about it!
Wei Jun Hao had both hands on his knees as he bent his body forward to catch his breath. At this time, he wondered why on earth would he always agree to have a one-on-one match against Zhang Yu Han when he knew that he would not be able to win against this maniac.
”Brother, stop bullying Brother Jun Hao,” Zhang Yu Ying's voice was heard.
Wei Jun Hao raised his head and watched as the girl approached him with a bottle of drinking water. He took the bottle from her and chugged down until it was empty.
Zhang Yu Ying gave him a look over and clicked her tongue. Of course, she was pitying Wei Jun Hao who was sweating all over after a match with her brother. She had watched the two played against each other for years and knew that Wei Jun Hao had never won against her brother.
”Do you need another drink?” Zhang Yu Ying asked upon seeing that the bottle was now empty.
Wei Jun Hao waved his hand. ”No need. I'm fine.”
She picked the empty bottle and sighed. ”You should drink slowly. What if you get sick from it? As an athlete, shouldn't you know about these things?”
Wei Jun Hao rolled his eyes at her. ”Zhang Yu Ying, you nagged too much.”
”I nagged too much?” Zhang Yu Ying pointed a finger at her nose. ”Fine. I won't care about you anymore.”
Seeing that the girl was upset, Wei Jun Hao heaved a long sigh. ”Alright. Stop getting angry at me. I'm sorry. It was my fault. I should listen to you.”
Zhang Yu Han took a sip from his bottle and continued to observe the two silently. It was not as if he did not notice the change in the two's relationship.
These days, his sister would often look after Wei Jun Hao. Although the two would continue to bicker as they always do, this bickering would end soon and Wei Jun Hao was always the first to give in to his sister.
Zhang Yu Han was able to see the way the two would look at each other but it seemed that the two had not noticed the change in them.
As Wei Jun Hao's friend and Zhang Yu Ying's brother, of course, Zhang Yu Han did not want to meddle in. He decided to stay at the sidelines and watch how the two's relationship would develop later on.
