I Beg You All, Please Shut Up

Time flashes past. 4:30PM. The temperature outside was no longer that hot. Finally, Chu Tian and the two girls left his rental apartment.

When the party of three arrived at the university’s basketball court, most of the basketball players were already there.

“Hey, Chu Tian!”

Before Chu Tian even reaches the court, Xiao Gang’s loud and overbearing voice could be heard shouting. Then, a basketball came flying toward Chu Tian.

“Pop.” Chu Tian caught the ball singlehandedly. He turned to Bai Xiaochun and smiled, “The two of you find somewhere cool to watch. I’ll go and play with them.”

After leaving those words, Chu Tian began to dribble the ball and walk toward the court.

“What’s going on with you?” Xiao Gang asked right away, “We’ve called you to come play multiple times without any answer. Too busy picking up girls?”

“No, nothing of that sort,” Chu Tian smiled and shot the basketball toward the basket, “Actually, I was busy.”

Seemingly remembering something, Xiao Gang immediately nodded his head, “Right, right, right. Yeah, let’s not think about all those things. They’re nothing more than idle talks and bullshit. I’m serious, you’re most definitely a manly man. Furthermore, you suit that Bai Xiaochun quite well. Ignore those sour lemons, they’re just jelly of you.”

Knowing full well what Xiao Gang was referring to, Chu Tian smiled, “You don’t have to worry about me. I don’t check out the forum that much. So, everyone’s here?”

“Lei Boy and the rest are still not here yet. Let’s warm up our bodies first, we can play full court when they’re here.”

Soon, after only about ten minutes, Lei Boi and the others arrived. With that, Chu Tian and the others divided into two teams and started playing full court.

……

……

Like their last match, people began to gather to watch them play basketball.

The sounds of basketball shoes squeaking on the floor, the dribbling basketballs colliding with the floor and the whooshing net with every score continued till 6PM.

Seeing Xiao Gang and others covered in sweat and panting in exhaustion, Chu Tian, while dribbling the basketball, smiled, “Still want to continue?”

“No more, no more.”

Xiao Gang sat onto the ground and started panting for air, “Chu Tian, you’re truly abnormal. Your stamina is simply too much. Aren’t you tired in the slightest?”

“I’m tired,” As he said that, Chu Tian leaped into the air and shot the basketball into the basket, “But, I can still keep going for a while.”

“Well, I can’t,” Xiao Gang shook his head, “I still have to get a hotel room with my girlfriend tonight. I need to save some stamina for her tonight.”

Chu Tian laughed, “Right. So, Xiao Bro, you’re the university student union’s vice president, no?”

“Yeah,” Xiao Gang picked up the water bottle and took a gulp, “Don’t tell me you only learned about that now?”

“I already knew the last time around,” Chu Tian squatted down, “So, Xiao Bro, is your university student union capable of managing the department student unions?”

“That’s of course,” laughed Xiao Gang, “One’s a department whereas the other’s the university. There’s a major difference in hierarchy?”

“In that case, can you help me out here?” said Chu Tian, “Those evening self-studies and whatnot, I’m actually quite busy at night sometimes.”

“Oh, so it’s about that. I’ll handle it with a phone call,” Xiao Gang took out his cellphone, “So you don’t want to take the evening self-study, right?”

“Wait, don’t call just yet. There’s more,” said Chu Tian, “Not only me, there’s also Bai Xiaochun from the Nursing Department’s Sixth Class and Yang Rong from the same Nursing Department’ Third Class. Also, it’s not just removing us from the evening self-study. You know about the girls’ dorm, it’s hot as hell and difficult to sleep sometimes. They’re both my friends, so can you do something about it so that the student union will not make trouble for them?”

Xiao Gang turned to look at the two girls watching by the court. He laughed mischievously, “ Those two, right? I got you.”

After saying that, Xiao Gang unlocked his phone and directly called a number on his contact.

“Hello, Zhu Wen? It’s me, Xiao Gang.”

“I got three names here. They’re all people from your Nursing Department.”

“Aight, I’ll start with the names. From the Nursing Department’s Third Class, Chu Tian and Yang Rong. From the Sixth Class, Bai Xiaochun.”

“Yeah, those three. You don’t have to bother taking evening self-study attendance for those three anymore. Furthermore, with that Bai Xiaochun and Yang Rong, you all don’t have to worry if they decide not to sleep in the dorms either.”

“Yeah, those three are all my friends. They’re rather busy people. So, help me out yeah? I’ll make sure to put your name up for the next university student union election.”

“Sure thing. Well then, I’ll let you go. Yeah, there’s nothing else.”

Seeing Xiao Gang hanging up the phone, Chu Tian couldn’t help but smile, “Xiao Bro, wasn’t that transaction of yours is too undisguised”

“That’s nothing,” Xiao Gang laughed, “They’re all trivial matters.”

“You say that. So what do you say about eating out tonight? My treat.”

“There’s really no need for that,” Xiao Gang shook his head, “We’re bros, what I did was nothing. Besides, I still have to keep my girlfriend company tonight.”

As he said that, Xiao Gang stood up, “Come, let’s get going. I’ll inform your girlfriend.”

After that, Xiao Gang and Chu Tian walked over to Bai Xiaochun and Yang Rong standing outside the court.

Xiao Gang smiled, “As expected of this year’s number one freshmen goddess. Looks mighty fine. So, I just called your Nursing Department’s student union. The two of you wouldn’t have to worry about your attendance in the evening self-studies anymore. Apart from that, if you don’t want to sleep in the dorms, you’re free to sleep elsewhere. No one will come check up on the two of you either.”

Hearing those words from Xiao Gang, Yang Rong’s eyes turned wide open. She rejoiced, “The student union wouldn’t pay any attention to the two of us anymore?”

“Yep, that’s right,” said Xiao Gang, “If they are to cause troubles for the two of you in the future, you can have Chu Tian call me. I’ll handle them. So go ahead and start living together without worries.”

After saying those words, Xiao Gang smiled a meaningful smile. Then, he patted Chu Tian’s shoulder and returned to the basketball court.
