Chapter 99: Lin Xiaoyu Encounters an Ambush
After a day's training, Lin Xiaoyu and Yan Nan slowly walked out of the school gate.
As the provincial qualifying match is approaching, the training volume in these days is not large. Bian Guohui only let the players do some tactical coordination exercises, so Lin Xiaoyu, who has finished training at this time, does not have a tired look.
Yan Nan, who was walking slowly beside Lin Xiaoyu, was a bit different from usual. With her mouth pouted and looking adorable with an air of indignation, the small leather boots on her feet occasionally kicked up small stones on the road.
Yan Nan's behavior left Lin Xiaoyu somewhat perplexed, as she couldn't understand why Yan Nan, who had always been watching her training, would suddenly become so petty.
Lin Xiaoyu would never have thought that Yan Nan's sulky appearance was largely due to himself. During training, Yan Nan, sitting in the stands, saw the detestable female manager always finding excuses to walk over to Lin Xiaoyu and chat with him for a few sentences, which made Yan Nan feel extremely jealous, so he had been holding back his anger since training began.
"Xiao Nan, you seem a bit off? What's wrong? Are you feeling down?" Lin Xiaoyu asked, tilting her head and pouting at Yan Nan.
"It's not because of you." Yan Nan thought to herself. But Yan Nan couldn't say that she was jealous for the sake of the female manager of that ball team, so she could only pretend to be calm and said: "Nothing, I'm fine." As Yan Nan spoke, a small stone on the road was kicked flying by her foot.
"Oh? Really?" Lin Xiaoyu didn't quite believe Yan Nan's words: "Let's go, I'll treat you to ice cream. Every time I'm unhappy, one ice cream can lift my mood."
Lin Xiaoyu has always done something whenever she encounters unpleasant things since childhood, that is to eat an ice cream. Lin Xiaoyu thinks the icy and mellow flavor of ice cream can always make her mood better. Lin Xiaoyu's life has been so simple and happy like a child.
"Ah, you said that. I'm not satisfied with just one, I want to eat two." Yan Nan felt happy seeing Lin Xiaoyu comforting herself, after all, getting Lin Xiaoyu's concern made Yan Nan feel quite warm inside.
"So greedy, huh? If you're not afraid of diarrhea, I can treat you to all the ice cream in the store." Lin Xiaoyu saw that Yan Nang was a bit happy and continued to joke around to make her laugh.
"Hmm, my stomach is good. I can eat as much as I want, just worry that you didn't bring enough money on you." Yan Nan had already completely thrown away the feeling of eating vinegar, and Lin Xiaoyu inviting her to eat ice cream together made Yan Nan feel very happy.
"Haha, how much can your little belly hold?" Lin Xiaoyu smiled and said.
"Just you try, I'll make you regret your wallet." Yan Nan slightly raised her small fist in front of Lin Xiaoyu, looking adorable in a way that couldn't be described.
Just as Lin Xiaoyu and Yan Nan were walking and talking, several figures flashed out on the road, blocking their way.
"Do you still remember me?" A person with golden hair and wearing flashy clothes, who was blocking Lin Xiaoyu's way, said in a fierce tone. This person looked like a street thug at first glance.
Lin Xiaoyu recognized this person, who was one of the thugs she had fought off in the alley last time to help Lin Cijie. Lin Xiaoyu didn't expect to run into this thug at the school gate, and seeing the seven companions standing beside him, all dressed as thugs, Lin Xiaoyu knew that this thug had come looking for her.
"I don't know you, what do you want?" Lin Xiaoyu said, pretending not to recognize the thug. As she spoke, she positioned herself in front of Yan Nan, shielding him from these thugs who were looking for trouble with her.
"You don't remember me, but I remember you. You're quite the ladies' man, aren't you? Last time you saved a beautiful woman, and now there's another beauty by your side. Hey, how about sharing one with your brother for some fun?" The blond-haired thug gazed at Yan Nang behind Lin Xiaoyu with a lecherous look.
The punk with the yellow hair had been lying in wait for Lin Xiaoyu at the school gate for a long time. A few days ago, one of the three punks who were taught a lesson by Lin Xiaoyu saw him in the game room and recognized the tall boy who beat them up. The punk also recognized that the pants Lin Xiaoyu was wearing were the uniform of Shiyan Middle School, so he told his companions, and they gathered some helpers to ambush Lin Xiaoyu at the school gate.
Lin Xiaoyu knew that these thugs were well-prepared and had a large number of people, so she definitely couldn't defend herself. So Lin Xiaoyu whispered to Yan Nan, who was blocked behind her, to quickly run into the school. Lin Xiaoyu was afraid that these despicable thugs would hurt Yan Nan.
"You're not fond of being a hero, I'll make you a hero!" Huang Fa's thug saw Lin Xiaoyu talking to the girl behind him and pulled out an iron rod from behind his back, heavily hitting Lin Xiaoyu...
Lin Xiaoyu could have dodged the iron rod swung by the blond-haired thug, but with Yan Nan behind her, she knew that if she dodged, the rod would likely hit Yan Nan instead. So Lin Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and raised her right hand to block the incoming rod.
"Bang" Lin Xiaoyu's handback collided heavily with the iron rod, emitting a heart-wrenching sound. A piercing pain spread from Lin Xiaoyu's hand to her brain.
Lin Xiaoyu let out a low hum, enduring the intense pain of being beaten by an iron rod. She loudly shouted to Yan Nan behind her: "Run quickly, Xiao Nan! Run back to school! Don't worry about me!"
Yan Nan saw Lin Xiaoyu being attacked by these thugs of unknown origin, and she was stunned. After hearing Lin Xiaoyu's cry for help, she hesitated for a moment before turning around and running towards the school. Yan Nan knew that even if she stayed with Lin Xiaoyu, it would be useless, as a girl herself, she couldn't deal with those thugs, and staying would only add trouble to Lin Xiaoyu. So Yan Nan ran towards the school, knowing that at this time, she could only go to the school's security guard or students for help to save Lin Xiaoyu from danger.
"Grab that girl, don't let her get away!" Huang Fa's gang saw Yan Nan running towards the gate of Experimental Middle School and shouted to his companions to catch her.
Lin Xiaoyu endured the intense pain in her hands, grabbed one of the thugs who was about to grab Yan Nan, and threw him at the other thugs with great force. The thin thug was picked up by Lin Xiaoyu's tall figure and slammed into his companions like an object, knocking three thugs to the ground. This also made it impossible for them to catch Yan Nan.
"Alright, let's give this kid a beating and teach him a lesson." Huang Fa shouted to his companions as he himself charged towards Lin Xiaoyu with an iron rod.
Lin Xiaoyu quickly untied her own backpack and held it in her hand, using it as a weapon to swing at the blond thug closest to her. Lin Xiaoyu knew that she was at a disadvantage with her bare fists against these thugs, so without any other options, she could only use her backpack as a makeshift weapon.
Lin Xiaoyu's forceful swing of her school bag hit the face of a blond-haired thug who was rushing over, causing him to let out a pained cry and retreat several steps while clutching his nose. Meanwhile, Lin Xiaoyu herself became surrounded by other thugs who rushed up, their clubs and fists raining down on her like raindrops...
Yan Nan listened to the fighting sounds behind her, her heart anxiously feeling like it was going to shatter into pieces. Tears uncontrollably flowed out from her eyes, but Yan Nan didn't turn around to look at Lin Xiao Yu who was being surrounded by those thugs. Yan Nan knew that she had to go find help in school to rescue Lin Xiao Yu, so she ran towards the school gate with all her might. Her shoulder bag had been thrown away on the road at some point. In Yan Nan's heart, her own Lin Xiao Yu was the most important thing, everything else was insignificant...
Suddenly, Yan Nuo's blurred vision saw the basketball team captain Su Hao rushing out of the school gate with Xiao Haifeng and Han Dali. Yan Nuo rushed up like grasping a lifesaving straw.
Su Hao and others saw Yan Nan crying and running towards them, without much surprise, as if they already knew what had happened. Su Hao, holding a wooden stick in his hand, asked Yan Nan while running: "Just now Ci Jie told us that Xiao Yu was beaten up, is Xiao Yu still at the intersection? We'll go to help him now. You wait here, Ci Jie has already run to the playground to call people out."
Yan Nan was stunned after hearing Su Hao's words, wanting to say something but her throat was already choked with sobs. Yan Nan hadn't expected that someone had already gone to the basketball team to find help for Lin Xiaoyu, and it was none other than Lin Cijie, whom she had never gotten along with. But at this moment, Yan Nan couldn't care about anything else, all she wanted was for Lin Xiaoyu to be safe and sound.
Just as Yan Nang was standing at the school gate, panting and sobbing, Lin Cijie hastily led a few people from the basketball team out of the school. When Lin Cijie saw Yan Nang's tear-stained face, she stopped in her tracks, telling the other boys to hurry up and help Lin Xiaoyu, while she herself took out a tissue from her pocket and handed it to Yan Nang.
Lin Cijie had been following closely behind Lin Xiaoyu and Yan Nan as they walked out of the school gate. When she saw Lin Xiaoyu suddenly being surrounded by a group of thugs, she knew something was wrong and quickly ran back to the school to get help for Lin Xiaoyu.
Yan Nan took the tissue from Lin Cijie and thanked her, saying a bit anxiously: "Let's go take a look quickly, Lin Xiaoyu is still at the intersection..."
Lin Cijie nodded and hurried with Yan Nan towards the intersection...
