Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 2070 - 2271: The Class Hero

The match was scheduled for the afternoon, which overlapped with dinner time, so many people skipped dinner just to watch the game, spending the entire afternoon at the basketball court. As more people came to watch, it was hard to tell how many had missed dinner just to attend the match.Now that the match was over, Hao Jian and the others involved had left. Walking around Yawen's campus, you could notice a phenomenon: there was still some time before evening study sessions, and those students who missed their dinner because they watched the match were now walking slowly toward the cafeteria, heads down, engrossed in their phones.

On their phones, messages were being refreshed quickly, with the name Hao Jian standing out prominently. Students passing by were all focused on the updates about Hao Jian.

"Wow, that was so cool, truly moving. It's my first time seeing such a manly guy. Never mind, he's in Class Three, right? I'm going to confess to him!"

"Hao Jian! I, I, I... I don't even know how to describe my feelings. I want to have dinner with him now and spend some time just between the two of us!"

"The little deer in my heart is running wild; I've never felt this way before. I realize I like him, what should I do!"

"......"

Most of the messages were from girls, but some boys were also messaging, mostly discussing how they could hang out with Hao Jian because he was so cool.

Meanwhile, the person in question was completely unaware of any of this and had returned straight to the classroom. Upon entering, the classroom erupted once more into chaos because they all knew about the entire incident from their online circles and the school forum.

Hao Jian was incredibly cool. Previously, many people looked down on Class Three, but now, the name of Class Three was rapidly gaining fame in Yawen. Suddenly, numerous people were asking if they could transfer to Class Three, eager to study alongside a legend like Hao Jian.

Liu Jie and his group were sitting on one side of the classroom, already irritated as they browsed through their phones. When they saw Hao Jian enter, their faces displayed an obvious displeasure. Without saying much, they walked out immediately after seeing him.

Hao Jian naturally noticed all this, but he paid it no mind and ignored it altogether.

At this moment, Zhang Danlin approached Hao Jian and said to the class, "Hey everyone! Do you think Hao Jian is our hero?"

The classroom was already buzzing with Hao Jian's return, and Zhang Danlin's words instantly caused the class to erupt in noise once more.

"That's right! Hao Jian is our hero in Class Three. Surely, no one will dare look down on our class now. We are the best in Class Three!"

"Hao Jian, you rock!"

Zhang Danlin was very pleased, her face full of happiness. She turned and smiled at Hao Jian, who looked a bit embarrassed, hurriedly waving his hand as he said: "Uh... this... is a result of everyone's joint efforts. I couldn't have done it alone. So if anything, I think everyone who was on the field deserves praise. They practiced hard on the basketball court all afternoon to beat Class Five, so why don't we give them a round of applause?"

Taking Hao Jian's words to heart, the classroom erupted into a loud applause immediately after his voice fell.

Zheng Jun and the others stood nearby, feeling comforted as they listened to Hao Jian's words. Everyone knew that the victory was largely due to Hao Jian. Without him, Class Five might have bullied them, leaving them humiliated.

Yet Hao Jian turned that potential humiliation into glory, ensuring no other class would dare underestimate them, and he reunited the class's cohesion. Moreover, instead of taking all the credit himself, Hao Jian acknowledged everyone's effort, which was what made them the most content.

Zheng Jun, Fatty Hu Lai, Ma Yantao, Qu Liucheng... all the people who participated in the game and practice sessions now had smiles of satisfaction on their faces. They also cast glances of new admiration and respect at Hao Jian.

As for the girls in the class, their gazes towards Hao Jian changed as well. Previously, they didn't understand how he garnered such a good reputation, earning the admiration of several girls and maintaining a good relationship with the homeroom teacher. They didn't particularly like or dislike him. But now, their eyes clearly reflected admiration.

Initially, they thought Hao Jian was just a troublemaker, often called out by the teacher, either sleeping in class or skipping it. Now, however, by leading the boys to win the respect of all classes, he earned the class prestige. Their impressions shifted rapidly.

The main reason was Hao Jian's earlier words, which left them in admiration. Meanwhile, the boys who had been too afraid to play against Class Five felt a bit embarrassed and bowed their heads quietly.

Surprisingly, Li Weiwei appeared at some point. Upon seeing the liveliness inside the classroom, she didn't rush in but stood outside observing before staying quietly in the hallway. She felt that her decision to send Hao Jian to handle this was incredibly wise.

Although Hao Jian was just a student, the surprise he brought her was immense. Usually, she felt superior in front of others, but not with him. Instead, she felt as if Hao Jian could see through her.

It had always been this way, and observing Hao Jian again, she felt her thoughts were not misplaced.

The class bell suddenly rang as the sky darkened, marking the time for evening study sessions. The previously lively classroom slowly quieted down. Following the afternoon's excitement, the newfound calm was quite pleasant.

The classroom settled into silence, with everyone in their seats resuming normal study activities, heads down and writing their assignments. He Qiqi worked on her homework but subconsciously glanced at Hao Jian occasionally. Hao Jian quickly noticed and returned her gaze.

Then, when He Qiqi looked at Hao Jian next, their eyes met. He Qiqi was initially staring, but upon meeting Hao Jian's eyes, she immediately shifted her gaze in panic, caught in a state of alarm.

Hao Jian chuckled at this. He wondered why she couldn't just look openly instead of peeking and recoiling when caught, seeming so flustered. But then he remembered she was quite shy, which explained her behavior.

At this moment, the person seated in front of Hao Jian passed him a note. In the past, this person would seem impatient, as if passing notes to Hao Jian was a waste of time, but not now. Thanks to his afternoon feat, he happily passed it over.

Hao Jian unfolded the note to see it was from Zhang Danlin, suggesting she'd like to treat everyone to a meal to celebrate.

Hao Jian smiled upon reading it. Coincidentally, he had the same idea. With so many people supporting him during practice and contributing to the victory, he felt they deserved some reward. He initially planned to mention it after class, but Zhang Danlin beat him to it.

However, he thought it improper for a girl to pay, so he quickly returned a note to Zhang Danlin, saying he'd take care of the expenses and she should just handle the arrangements.

Upon receiving Hao Jian's note, Zhang Danlin was all smiles. She tried to return to her homework but was too distracted by Hao Jian's request.

Meanwhile, Hao Jian sent a message to Liang Xiaohan, inviting her to dinner that evening.

He knew Zhang Danlin had trouble broaching such things with Liang Xiaohan, given their relationship, and figured even if she asked, Liang Xiaohan might decline. But if everyone went and she didn't, she might take issue with him.

Anticipating this, Hao Jian promptly messaged Liang Xiaohan. Contrary to his expectations, she promptly replied with agreement.

Surprised, he sent back a smiley face.

Just then, Li Weiwei appeared in the classroom. The room instantly fell silent, but after surveying the classroom, she ended up at Hao Jian's side.

"Come with me!" Li Weiwei said.
