Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School Novel - Chapter 723

Chapter 723: Basketball Match

At this moment, cheers came from the class next door. It was obvious that they had received news of the autumn trip.

However, there were almost five hundred Year Two students in Erzhong. Such a large-scale activity was surprising.

After school, Jian Ai followed Yan Tian’s instructions and went to the school gate to wait. The girls who went with her were Guan Tao and Yu Mengyao.

Yu Mengyao had obviously gone because of Gao Yang. Although they were classmates, they rarely interacted much in class. Xia Qinghuan had said that Yu Mengyao only had Gao Yang in her eyes, so Yu Mengyao did not get close to these good friends who played with Gao Yang.

If there was a connection between them, it was the incident caused by a handkerchief last semester.

At that time, Yu Mengyao saw the handkerchief in Guan Tao’s pocket and recognized it as Gao Yang’s handkerchief at a glance. Hence, she made things difficult for Guan Tao.

Jian Ai was so angry that she slapped Yu Mengyao.

At this moment, Yu Mengyao was standing alone under a tree by the road, while Jian Ai and Guan Tao were standing on the other side.

“If I knew Yu Mengyao would go too, I wouldn’t have gone,” Guan Tao pulled Jian Ai’s hand and muttered softly.

Obviously, after what had happened last time, Guan Tao still seemed to be afraid of Yu Mengyao even though Yu Mengyao didn’t find trouble with her after hearing Gao Yang’s words, let alone pursue Jian Ai’s attack.

Yu Mengyao lowered her head and fiddled with her phone. She didn’t look in their direction. Jian Ai glanced at her and said to Guan Tao, “It’s fine. It’s been so long. Didn’t she do anything else?”

Guan Tao nodded. “Gao Yang probably told her something. Didn’t Qinghuan say that Yu Mengyao only listens to Gao Yang?”

“They seem to have been engaged since they were young,” Jian Ai suddenly thought.

Guan Tao quickly nodded again. “That’s right. After that incident last time, someone secretly told me that Yu Mengyao is especially possessive of Gao Yang. She also said to outsiders that she’s his girlfriend.”

“But Gao Yang never admitted it,” Jian Ai whispered.

Guan Tao looked at Yu Mengyao and lowered her voice. “He didn’t deny it as well.”

Jian Ai smiled. “He probably can’t be bothered to waste his energy on such a ridiculous matter. After all, it’s Gao Yang.”

As they were talking, Lin Yi, Gao Yang, Yan Tian, and the rest walked out of the school gate. There were also some Year Two boys with them. They usually played basketball together.

Other than that, there were a few girls from the other classes in Year Two who were also going to watch the basketball match.

Jian Ai didn’t know these people, but they knew Jian Ai.

When everyone saw Jian Ai, they had different expressions on their faces. However, Jian Ai didn’t care what they thought of her.

“Four people in a car.” Lin Yi was obviously the leader of these people. He immediately called out to everyone.

The boys had already taken off their school uniforms and changed into jerseys. As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, he walked up to Jian Ai and Guan Tao and said, “I’ll take a car with you.”

Jian Ai nodded. “But we have to wait for a while. Si Yue went to the bathroom.”

“Alright, I’ll let them leave first,” Lin Yi said.

The venue of the friendly match with Yizhong this time was Yizhong’s basketball court.

Unlike Erzhong’s rule of school closure at night, Yizhong’s sports field and basketball court were open to the public all day. Therefore, at night, many nearby residents would gather at Yizhong’s sports field to run.
