My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 520 - 012: Denial

Chapter 520: 012: Denial
"Haha, saying that is a bit over the top, huh!" He Qianyue couldn’t help but laugh heartily, casting a playful glance at her.
As Yan Chengxi passed by on her way back, she clearly heard their conversation. Her face turned green as she glared viciously at them, her gaze finally landing on Lu Shishu. Lu Shishu smiled faintly, meeting her eyes without fear, his look full of disdain and contempt.
Yan Chengxi tightly gripped the bottle of mineral water in her hand, angrily withdrew her gaze, and returned to her original position.
By the time the second half started, Nan Jiayan and his team changed their strategy, scoring three consecutive goals, causing the girls in the venue to scream incessantly. Later, Su Yixing’s precise three-point shots widened the gap, causing the opponents to retreat step by step.
Soon, after the game ended, it was no surprise that Nan Jiayan and his team won. With his long legs, Nan Jiayan first leaped over the railing with one hand, directly walked up to Lu Shishu, and said with a smile, "You sit for a while, I’ll grab a shower and be right back. The next match is Ah Yang’s team against the Chinese painting department. I’ll come over to watch it with you."
Lu Shishu was speechless, moved her lips, and wanted to say something, but Nan Jiayan just waved his hand and jogged off. To other girls, this scene looked like an intimate gesture between a couple, inducing envy, jealousy, and hatred!
But Lu Shishu was a bit bewildered, staring blankly at his retreating figure, her heart mixed with a hint of sweetness and speechlessness.
There’s clearly nothing between the two of them now, so why did he come over and say something like that? Wasn’t this just attracting jealousy for her?
So many eyes are staring at her!
As she pulled back her gaze, Lu Shishu realized that beside her, three pairs of big eyes were staring at her roundly, instantly giving her a creepy feeling. She rubbed her arms and frowned, asking, "Stop looking at me like that, I didn’t do anything."
"Do you really need to do anything? Nan Jiayan’s attitude says it all." He Qianyue smirked as if she had figured everything out, smiling at her.
"I saw it too. If you keep saying there’s nothing between you and Nan Jiayan, I’ll never believe it. Look at Nan Jiayan’s gentle tone and those doting eyes just now. If that doesn’t say enough, then is there any love left in this world?" Lin Xuwan chimed in, no longer believing any of her words.
"The eyes of the people are clear." Even Cen Jin nodded in agreement.
Lu Shishu was at a loss for words, feeling like even with a hundred mouths, she couldn’t explain this, it was torturous. She just rolled her eyes at them, too lazy to argue anymore.
But in their eyes, this was clearly a sign of guilt and implicit admission. No matter what she said, the fact that she and Nan Jiayan were a couple was already set in stone.
About half an hour later, after the basketball court was cleared, the players from the oil painting department and the Chinese painting department officially took the stage, exchanged greetings, and began the match. The strength of both teams was evenly matched, with neither side gaining any advantage, and the defense was particularly tight.
The opponents seemed to have seen through Ling Xuyang and his team’s strategy, always targeting Ling Xuyang, the three-point machine. Several times, Ling Xuyang was nearly knocked down by the opponents, causing Lin Xuwan in the stands to clutch her heart in worry, cursing the people from the Chinese painting department as despicable and shameless.
"Ling Xuyang is the scoring machine for the oil painting department. Those six points were all scored by Ling Xuyang alone. It’s not unreasonable for the opponents to target him. However, the opponent’s number 11 has already been warned with two red cards for targeting Ling Xuyang. He shouldn’t dare to make another move and would be more cautious." Lu Shishu observed the situation on the court and spoke carefully, giving a worried look to Lin Xuwan: "Wanwan, don’t worry too much."
"All the attention is on Ah Yang. Their weakness, Ah Yang has also noticed. Moreover, the key point is that they’ve overlooked something important." Suddenly, Ming Haize, who hadn’t spoken, chimed in.
He Qianyue turned her head to look at him, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ming Haize exchanged a glance with her, then shyly turned his head away, covering his lips with his hand, saying, "It’s about Ah Yang’s hidden ace guard, Qi Feng. He’s known as the guard killer. Ah Yang probably intentionally let those points slide to make the opponents drop their guard, attracting everyone’s attention, so they would overlook Qi Feng’s presence, winning in one stroke."
