Chapter 232: I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.
The weather was great today and Gu Fan’s plan was set in motion, beginning with inviting everyone for a game of basketball. Among them were Lu Yi, Jie, Hai, all under the guise of promoting camaraderie and friendly activity. But in actuality, this was a plan devised together by Gu Fan and Su Hui.
Hai didn’t pay much attention to it, not feeling as if he had exposed anything. So, he agreed gladly, expressing his enthusiasm to test his basketball skills with everyone else, promising his attendance.
Everyone quickly gathered at the old spot and began the game, Gu Fan, Lu Yi, Jie, and Hai sweating it out on the court, each challenge intense and thrilling, driving their adrenaline through getting points at full tilt or valiantly blocking the opponents.
Gu Fan seemed to take the basketball game seriously, but in reality was observing Hai’s forehead in secret. Last time when Gu Fan was attacked, he had landed a punch on the attacker’s forehead which left a mark beneath the sunglasses. However, the mark on Hai’s forehead was not clear, making it hard to confirm whether Hai was the attacker or not.
"Watch this!" Lu Yi made a jump shot, only to be effortlessly blocked by the tall and sturdy Hai, who seemed like an impenetrable wall.
After a long game, Gu Fan checked the time and expressed how he hadn’t exercised in a while and was feeling windy, so he promptly found a place to rest.
Not just Gu Fan, everyone was exhausted, so they returned to their seats to enjoy the refreshing sensation of gulping down water.
Suddenly a cell phone rang from a bag on the side, startling Gu Fan. He quickly picked it up to see a call from Su Hui coming through.
"Hello, what’s the matter, Sister Su?" Gu Fan said, his brow furrowing as if he was faced with a difficult problem. He then apologized to everyone, "I’m sorry, some matter just came up that I have to deal with. Please excuse me, I’ll make it up to you all with dinner another day."
"No problem, go on." Hai expressed nonchalance, but his heart was pounding, wondering what Su Hui was up to, calling Gu Fan away at this moment. He warned Gu Fan last time not to meddle.
No sooner had Gu Fan left, than Hai’s phone started ringing. Shockingly, it was a call from Leng Le.
