317 One on one again

Fei also looked stunned as he stared at Xia Tian."Yeah, I am a martial arts expert." Xia Tian nodded seriously.The group was speechless for a moment. The guy really didn't know how to be humble, but t...Chapter 317: Another One-on-One Match WorryFree Novel World

"If it's a one-on-one match, then let's do it! Who's afraid of whom" Hua Hang found himself in a difficult situation and could only accept the challenge. "Let me eat first!"

"Fine, I'll give you time to finish eating!" Jiang Da basketball team member Nie Shaopeng sneered, introducing himself, "I'm Nie Shaopeng from the Jiang Da basketball team. I advise you to call your Physical Education College's basketball team now."

After saying this, Nie Shaopeng turned around and left: "Let’s go eat first!"

Hearing his name, Hua Hang’s face looked rather unpleasant, while Cui Yan's expression changed as well. She was uneasy and said, "Oh no, how did we provoke Nie Shaopeng"

In Jiang Hai University, Nie Shaopeng was also a celebrity. He had not been admitted to the university through sports recruitment but instead got into the Financial Department of Jiang Hai University on his own merits. Although he specialized in finance, his basketball talent surpassed everyone else’s at Jiang Hai University, even surpassing those who were recruited for their athletic abilities. In his first year at the university, he became the captain of the school's basketball team and has remained so until now.

During the previous semester, Nie Shaopeng led the Jiang Da basketball team into the semi-finals of the CUBA men’s division but lost in the end by a single point to the Physical Education College basketball team. This set up a grudge between the two teams, and Hua Hang, being a student from the Physical Education College, had just boasted about and belittled the Jiang Da basketball team. Naturally, this infuriated Nie Shaopeng and his teammates.

"Hua Hang, do you want to call your basketball team’s captain" Cui Yan couldn’t hold back any longer and said.

Hua Hang was hesitant: "This... doesn't seem right."

In fact, Hua Hang had merely been selected for the Physical Education College's basketball team in the past but didn’t manage to even secure a spot on the bench during the actual competition. If he could recognize Nie Shaopeng earlier, it would mean that he was never really part of the Physical Education College’s basketball team, so how could he bring himself to call his former teammates for help

Thinking about being humiliated by members of the Jiang Da basketball team later and losing face in front of many people, Hua Hang felt uncomfortable all over. As a result, he had no appetite.

"I’m going to use the restroom." Suddenly getting up, Hua Hang hurriedly left the private room.

"Wife, eat more." Xia Tian ignored this matter and continuously urged Qiao Xiaoqiao to eat. He felt that she was slightly underweight and needed to take care of her health by eating more.

Unfortunately, Qiao Xiaoqiao's appetite was limited; no matter how much they persuaded her, she still couldn't eat much. With no other choice, Xia Tian ended up finishing Xiaoqiao’s share as well, practically swallowing half of the food all by himself. As for the others, it seemed that none of them were in the mood to eat after what happened with the basketball team.

"Cui Yan, where is your boyfriend" Lü Yuting suddenly asked.

With this question, she actually voiced everyone's doubts as well. Hua Hang had been gone for at least ten minutes now and there was still no sign of him returning. Had he fallen into the toilet

Cui Yan forced a smile: "Maybe Hua Hang isn't feeling very well; let’s just not worry about it."

"Lu Yunfeng, why don’t you go to the restroom and check on him" Lü Yuting told her boyfriend.

"Tian Bin, you should also go take a look. Maybe something happened to Hua Hang," Luo Chunmei was about to send her own boyfriend over as well.

At this moment, Xia Tian spoke up: "Honey, I’m done eating; let’s leave."

Xiaoqiao glanced at Cui Yan and hesitated for a moment before saying: "Wait a bit more. Hua Hang's boyfriend hasn’t returned yet!"

After all, Xiaoqiao was the one who had invited everyone to eat; it wouldn't be right if she just left them hanging.

"Why wait He’s already run off," Xia Tian said nonchalantly.

“What Run off” Xiaoqiao looked stunned.

"Yeah, that guy never went to the bathroom; he ran away right after leaving the table." Xia Tian nodded and confirmed this fact.

"No way! How could Hua Hang just run off" Cui Yan quickly rebutted.

Summer, a bit impatient: "Don't believe us Go check the restroom!"

"I'll go take a look!" This time, Lu Yunfeng volunteered and quickly got up to leave the private room.

Tian Bin also stood up to follow: "I'll go take a look too!"

Less than a minute later, both of them returned to the private room.

"That, Hua Hang isn't in the restroom," Lu Yunfeng said.

"There wasn't anyone in the restroom at all," Tian Bin added.

This time, Cui Yan's face turned a little difficult to look at; she hurriedly took out her phone and dialed Hua Hang's number.

As soon as the call was answered, she angrily shouted: "Hua Hang, where did you run off to"

"I had something urgent. I'll be right back," Hua Hang said on the other end of the phone.

"I really misjudged you!" Cui Yan angrily yelled and then hung up the call. She always felt secure with Hua Hang's sturdy build, but who knew he was so timid It was just a basketball game that scared him away; what if something serious happened like mugging or robbery Wouldn't he run even faster

After hanging up, Cui Yan smiled awkwardly at everyone: "Hua Hang did leave. We don't need to wait for him. Let's go."

Qiao Xiaoqiao nodded and paid the bill; then they all left the private room together.

The moment they stepped out of Maple Garden, they saw Nie Shaopeng standing there with a group of people, obviously waiting for them.

"What about that kid" Nie Shaopeng walked over, glanced at everyone for a moment, and asked.

"He left earlier due to some prior engagement," Cui Yan replied.

"Left" A mocking look appeared on Nie Shaopeng's face. "I thought he had the guts! Turns out he’s just a coward who ran away!"

"Damn, did he toy with us"

"Exactly, wasted my emotions!"

"Sh*t, are all Sports College students like this"

The crowd behind Nie Shaopeng began to curse. It was no wonder they were angry; they had thought that they could finally give the boastful fellow from Sports College a taste of their might, only for him to sneak off quietly. They felt helpless and frustrated.

"Nie Shaopeng, if you want to take it out on someone from Sports College, go there instead of blocking our way," Cui Yan said, her mood not much better.

"Of course I’ll go to the Sports College, but not now!" Nie Shaopeng snorted. "Since you’re all buddies with that kid earlier, why don’t one of you step forward and fight me in a duel"

Nie Shaopeng pointed at Lu Yunfeng, Tian Bin, and Xia Tian: "I don't bully women; who among the three of you will come out to duel me"

"Don’t point your finger at me or I’ll twist it off," Xia Tian glared at Nie Shaopeng.

Nie Shaopeng was stunned. This kid is even more arrogant than him

“You want to twist my fingers” A mix of anger and amusement appeared on Nie Shaopeng's face as he looked at Xia Tian.

"If you dare to point at me like that again, I'll break your finger so you won't be able to point at anyone ever again," Xia Tian said casually. To him, breaking someone's finger was just a minor matter.

Nie Shaopeng was instantly amused by the sheer audacity of it; he had seen arrogant people before but never one who would actually threaten to break his finger! What kind of joke is this

"Nie Shaopeng, my husband always keeps his word. So I advise you not to try it," Qiao Xiaoqiao suddenly spoke up. Her words temporarily dissuaded Nie Shaopeng from trying to point at Xia Tian.

Nie Shaopeng glanced at Xia Tian and then at Qiao Xiaoqiao, somewhat surprised: "Qiao Xiaoqiao, is this your husband"

"That's right, he's my husband," Qiao Xiaoqiao nodded firmly. "I advise you to go to the sports college to find whoever you need to talk to instead of wasting time here."

"Very well, I'll challenge you one-on-one!" Nie Shaopeng looked at Xia Tian and said, "If you're brave enough, come with me to the basketball court right now!"

"You’re too weak. You don’t have the qualifications to challenge me," Xia Tian yawned.

"What did you just say, boy"

"Do you know who our team captain is"

"Our captain is a renowned basketball prince at Jiang University; who do you think you are"

"Anyone can talk big. If you’re brave enough, come challenge me now! Don’t be like that brat who ran away after saying tough words."

Xia Tian’s remark enraged the members of Nie Shaopeng's basketball team; they all spoke up at once, as if eager to drown Xia Tian with their saliva.

"Qiao Xiaoqiao, does your husband only know how to talk big" Nie Shaopeng looked at Qiao Xiaoqiao and said sarcastically, but his eyes held a strange glint.

"Wife, this idiot is annoying. Do you want me to beat him up and throw him aside" Xia Tian said a bit unhappily.

Qiao Xiaoqiao sweetly smiled at Xia Tian: "Husband, we seem to have nothing else to do right now. Why don’t you play with this guy And let them know how powerful you are"

Xia Tian waited for聶少鵬to watch him for a while and then said, "This idiot doesn't seem like a good toy; he definitely won't last long."

"It doesn’t matter. If this toy breaks, you can just get another one to play with." Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled lightly.

The two of them singing and responding to each other made those around them exchange baffled glances. The basketball prince,聶少鵬, was actually being treated like a toy by these two

Qiao Feng'er and Qiao Huang'er were also slightly stunned; they felt more and more that the Miss Qiao they respected and the detested lecherous Xia Tian really had many similarities.

Xia Tian, however, thought about it seriously before nodding. "Wife, you’re right! I’ll play with this toy first!"

Turning to look at聶少鵬, Xia Tian lazily shouted, "Hey, do you really want a one-on-one match with me"

"Of course! Are you scared"聶少鵬had an expression of challenge on his face.

"There’s nothing in this world that I’m afraid to do." Xia Tian had an indifferent look. "So, how do you want to do the one-on-one match"

"Very simple! We’ll go to the basketball court for a one-on-one game,"聶少鵬snickered coldly. "The loser has to bark like a dog."

“It’s another one-on-one challenge!” Xia Tian was not very happy, as he had already compared himself to the idiot Chen Zhigang at the sports college earlier. "There’s no creativity in it; it’s too boring. Let’s change the method!"r Qiao Zhen Guo learned that Fang Chu was severely injured and hospitalized, he had Qiao Dong Hai spread the news. As predicted by Qiao Zhen Guo, someone did make a move, but he miscalculated slightly...
