1444 How Can You Bully Him Like This
“Hey, what are you looking at down there? Come up and play a game or two.”
Ceng Kai looked up and saw that the person who had come over to talk to him was none other than Lu Beichen.
Ceng Kai even felt slightly happy. This was the first time Lu Beichen was speaking to him.
“Huh? Are you talking to me?”
Lu Beichen’s eyes narrowed. “Of course.”
Ceng Kai glanced at the others. Seeing that everyone was staring at them, he quickly nodded his head first. “Sure.”
He walked onto the basketball court. Everyone was actually harboring a lot of antic.i.p.ation as they looked on. However, Lu Beichen tossed a basketball to him very forcefully, causing Ceng Kai to immediately move backward. He received the ball and looked at Lu Beichen.
Lu Beichen raised his eyebrows. “You go first.”
Ceng Kai said, “Oh, alright… I’ll start first. But I don’t really know how to play. I hope you guys…”
“Why so long-winded? Just do it. Don’t drag your feet.”
“Yes…” Ceng Kai hastily started dribbling the ball.
However, Ceng Kai was being truthful. He was indeed not as good as they were at basketball.
To begin with, he was not as tall as them and it seemed that he was not very athletic either. Although he knew how to play, compared to Lu Beichen and the others, he seemed slightly comedic instead.
He ran as fast as he could, but whenever he reached the middle, Old Xu would block him.
Whenever he turned around, Little Q would come again. If he tried to shoot a goal after many difficulties, Lu Beichen would cut in front of him. The instant he jumped to shoot a goal, Lu Beichen would directly take the rebound…
He was much taller than Ceng Kai when he jumped. In no time, he managed to hit the ball out of his hand.
Ceng Kai felt humiliated for a moment. He looked at him, smiled and said, “As expected, you guys are really impressive.”
Lu Beichen scoffed. “This is nothing.”
As he said this, Lu Beichen picked up the ball and threw it at Ceng Kai’s face once again.
Ceng Kai could clearly sense that Lu Beichen was targeting him.
He looked at Lu Beichen doubtfully, thinking that he did not seem to have offended him before.
After all, who dared to offend this little prince?
He was the lord of the capital. Did he have a death wish, offending him?
However, Lu Beichen clearly had something against him.
Although Lu Beichen kept targeting him like this, he didn’t dare to retaliate either.
He could only watch him cut in front of him over and over again, easily s.n.a.t.c.hing the ball away from him before throwing it back at him forcefully. But there was nothing he could do about it.
Because he really didn’t dare to criticize him and go against him either.
Meanwhile, around them, the girls continued screaming.
“Wow. Lu Beichen is so handsome!”
Everyone shouted this way.
“Haha. Ceng Kai isn’t a match for Lu Beichen at all!”
“Lu Beichen is so good at basketball!”
“Lu Beichen is so perfect! He’s so good at everything!”
Everyone looked at Lu Beichen with lovestruck gazes. They genuinely felt that he could not get any better. He was wealthy, handsome and was so capable too.
Many people could tell that Lu Beichen seemed to be messing with Ceng Kai, but they merely found it even more amusing.
Lu Beichen was still so handsome when he messedwith people.
At the side, Gu Jingyan could tell that something was wrong.
She stood there and watched as Ceng Kai was forced to move backwards again and again. But Lu Beichen still had no intention of letting him off.
They were really…
Gu Jingyan walked over to them. “Lu Beichen, enough.”
Lu Beichen stopped.
Everyone looked at Gu Jingyan in unison.
Ceng Kai was gasping for breath. He had been dragged everywhere to the point where his face was bathed in sweat. When he turned his head to see that Gu Jingyu had stepped forward, he hastily said, “Jingyan…”
From the looks of it, Gu Jingyan seemed as if she was going to go against Lu Beichen.
Ceng Kai did not want Lu Beichen to do anything to her because of him.
Lu Beichen looked at her and smiled with his eyebrows raised. He looked evil and reckless. “Why?”
Gu Jingyan asked, “Is it fun to mess with people?”
Lu Beichen laughed out loud. “It’s fun.”
Gu Jingyan scoffed. “If you can, go and mess with those who know how to play. What’s the point of bullying those who don’t know how to play?”
With the ball in one hand, Lu Beichen moved closer to her bit by bit. “Why? He can’t be resenting me for it, right?”
Gu Jingyan said, “Each person is good at their own thing. So what if he doesn’t know how to play basketball? Do you know how to do everything? Let me remind you. Your results aren’t even half as good as his. At the very least, he’s at the top of his cla.s.s. And you? What are you? Number what from the back?”
Lu Beichen’s expression changed completely.
Everyone pointed and stared at Gu Jingyan. This Gu Jingyan was was really too audacious. How dare she provoke Lu Beichen directly using her status as the teacher’s pet?
She was not even afraid of being ruthlessly punished by Lu Beichen.
The main thing was, she did not show Young Master Lu any respect in front of so many people.
But what surprised everyone was that although Lu Beichen had a tight expression on his face, he did not actually fly into a terrible rage. He merely moved closer to Gu Jingyan bit by bit.
Gu Jingyan looked up and asked nonchalantly, “What do you want? Did I say anything wrong?”
Lu Beichen clenched his teeth tightly.
Seeing this, Ceng Kai hastily walked over and tugged at Gu Jingyan. “Alright, Jingyan. It’s nothing. They were just teasing me.”
From behind her, he then quickly reminded her softly, “Jingyan, don’t argue with Lu Beichen like this. You can’t afford to offend Lu Beichen. The school doesn’t even dare to do anything to him. Furthermore, in the capital, there’s really not one person who dares to oppose him. Don’t be rash.”
Gu Jingyan turned her head to look at Ceng Kai. “He’s messing with you like this and you’re still going to tolerate it? You don’t need to accept it. Just ask him why he should be allowed to treat you like this.”
Seeing this, Ceng Kai’s heart warmed. He even thought to himself that Gu Jingyan was genuinely good to him. She even dared to offend Lu Beichen for his sake.
“Forget it. Who in B City doesn’t know of Lu Beichen’s reputation?”
Gu Jingyan scoffed. “I’m not afraid of him at all.”
As she said this, Gu Jingyan still took a step forward.
Ceng Kai was genuinely shocked and frantically stepped forward to say, “Young Master Lu, if something is wrong, take it up with me. It has nothing to do with Gu Jingyan. Don’t lay a hand on her…”
Lay a hand on her?
Old Xu approached them from behind and said, “Alright, Ceng Kai. Don’t bother about matters between the two of them. How could he possibly lay a hand on Gu Jingyan?”
She was the Fourth Young Miss of the Gu family. If Lu Beichen dared to lay a hand on her, his family members would break his legs too. Was he trying to incite a war between the wealthy families? If the two largest and wealthiest families in B City actually started a fight, it would be very exciting.
Of course, Ceng Kai did not know this. So, he continued worriedly, “But…”
Old Xu said, “Don’t you worry. In front of Gu Jingyan, Lu Beichen is nothing more than a paper tiger.”
Ceng Kai was puzzled. Why?
But just as Old Xu had said, Lu Beichen stared fixedly at Gu Jingyan. However, it was just a brief stare before he scoffed immediately, brushed past her shoulder, and walked away.
Gu Jingyan looked disdainfully at him out of the corner of her eye and rolled her eyes.
She was not speaking up for Ceng Kai. She merely could not stand to see Lu Beichen bully people like this. He was too overbearing, too arrogant, and too bad.
Furthermore, Ceng Kai had in fact not offended him before. She did not know what exactly was wrong with him. Or was he doing it intentionally because he felt that Ceng Kai was her friend? Since he disliked her, by a.s.sociation he disliked Ceng Kai too.
