Save the Bachelor of Heaven

 Chapter 39653967【Responsibility】

 When the students heard Wang Di being called on by the teacher, they all listened with the mentality of watching a good show.

 But when they heard his concise and philosophical poem, the students were all stunned for a moment.

Feng Xuejiao’s eyes shone with excitement, and she was the first to take the lead in applauding.

Xiang Nan also clapped his hands, and then led his classmates to applaud together.

 Wang Di couldn't help but be very happy when he received everyone's applause, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

"Do you know why I didn't give you a grade? Because I couldn't give you a grade." Fan Chengzhi later explained, "If I gave you a high grade, then other students would have written 600 words, which they think is unfair. But, I personally like it very much. Let me tell you, next time you write like this, I will give you zero points.”

 Wang Di nodded.

"Okay, sit down. After class, post your poem on the blackboard behind." Fan Chengzhi said again.

Wang Di then sat down.

“Wang Di, you are so talented,” Feng Xuejiao looked at him and said, with uncontrollable joy on her face, “I kind of admire you.”

Wang Di ignored her and looked back. Seeing Huang Shu lowering her head to read a book, she felt a little disappointed. Then she said to Feng Xuejiao, "Okay, let's read quickly."

 …

 After lunch, Xiang Nan went to the shopping mall outside the school to buy a basketball for Wang Di.

When he arrived at the door of the store, he saw Huang Shu standing at the stall in front of the store, choosing tapes.

Seeing Xiang Nan coming over, a reserved smile appeared on her lips.

Somehow, although she was not familiar with this boy, she felt inexplicably familiar.

Xiang Nan also nodded to her and then walked into the mall.

"Watching basketball, this row is full." Seeing customers coming to the door, the boss greeted him quickly.

Xiang Nan nodded and pointed to the basketball with the "Spalding" logo printed on it, "Can you take a look at that one?"

“Young man, you have a good eye, Spalding, it’s a famous brand.” The boss smiled, and then took it off, “The color is also good, look at the red, white and blue, how beautiful it is.”

“Is it the best?” Xiang Nan asked.

“Absolutely the best, this is the biggest brand.” The boss nodded and smiled.

 “How much?” Xiang Nan asked.

 “Two hundred and twenty-five,” the boss said.

“Boss, can it be cheaper? I only have this money.” Xiang Nan took out all the money in his pocket, a total of two hundred and five.

“Oh, this is already the lowest price.” The boss said while pinching his teeth, “Why don’t you look at something else? There’s one that costs 180.”

 “I want this.” Xiang Nan insisted.

"How can you lower the price? If you are short of three to five yuan, I can help you reduce it. If you are short of twenty yuan, I will not even make a profit." The shop owner was embarrassed.

 …

At this moment, I heard a female voice say, "What's wrong? Is there not enough money?"

Xiang Nan looked back and saw that it was Huang Shu.

"Yes, it's twenty." The shopkeeper continued, "I tried to persuade him to buy a cheaper one but he still didn't listen."

“Whatever I give to my friends, I have to give the best.” Xiang Nan insisted.

“How about you bring more money tomorrow?” the shopkeeper asked.

 “Here!” Huang Shu said as she handed over twenty yuan.

"Oh, it's bright. Let me go to the back and inflate the ball." The shopkeeper said after taking the money.

Xiang Nan glanced at Huang Shu and smiled sheepishly, "Thank you, thank you. I have no money now, so I can only pay it back later."

"It's okay, don't worry." Huang Shu smiled, "You are right, best friends have to give you the best. I support you."

 “Thank you.” Xiang Nan nodded. "Hey, have your trousers been sewn?" Huang Shu looked at Xiang Nan's trouser legs again. There was a crack there, but now it was sewn up with needle and thread. But the sewing is not very good, it is a bit crooked.

“Yes, my dad sewed it for me.” Xiang Nan nodded.

"Your dad is so kind." Huang Shu said with envy upon hearing this.

Her father divorced her mother when she was very young and took Xiaosan to the south. After more than ten years of absence, there was no news from him and he never came back to see her. She had forgotten what he looked like.

Xiang Nan grinned.

 Qin Dazhi is not a good father in any sense.

 …

 Subsequently, Xiang Nan returned to school with the basketball and found Wang Di who was watching the ball on the court. "Here, this ball is for you."

"Holy shit, Spalding?" Wang Di was surprised and happy when he saw it, "Really or not?"

“Of course it’s true.” Xiang Nan nodded.

"This ball costs more than two hundred. How can you afford it? Did you find the money?" Wang Di asked in surprise.

 “My dad came back yesterday.” Xiang Nan explained.

Wang Di suddenly realized.

Although Qin Dazhi is unconventional, it is not a difficult thing to give his son two hundred yuan. After all, it may not be given once a year.

“Great, I have the ball. Hu Kaizhi dares to play with me this time.” Wang Di then said excitedly.

"What's the point of competing with a big fool?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Go ahead and dunk a basketball for me."

In the late 1990s, when "Slam Dunk" was at its peak, countless boys became obsessed with basketball due to the influence of that cartoon.

 “Okay, it’s up to me.” Wang Di said proudly, took the new ball and got off the court, sprinting followed by a jump. Unfortunately, the ball was at least a foot away from the basket, and he couldn't get it in no matter how hard he tried, so it could only be regarded as a civilian layup.

 Even so, he was happy.

“Qin Li, come on, I’ll teach you how to play ball.” Wang Di smiled.

"Farewell, you can play by yourself. I'm very happy to see you playing." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile.

If he can play off the court, all the teams in the entire NBA combined will not be able to play for him alone.

Wang Di was also very happy when he saw what he said, and played the ball even more vigorously.

 Huang Shu looked at how happy they were from a distance, and couldn't help but look envious and fascinated.

 She had not had many friends since she was a child, so she envied the pure friendship between Xiang Nan and Wang Di.

 …

 Back to the classroom.

When Feng Xuejiao saw that Wang Di had an extra ball in his hand, she couldn't help but asked curiously, "Wang Di, where did you get this ball? Did you save enough money so quickly?"

"Qin Li gave me more than two hundred dollars." Wang Di said proudly.

"Wow, Qin Li, you are really willing to give up." Feng Xuejiao said in admiration when she heard this.

 In 1999, two hundred yuan was really not a small amount. The monthly salary of ordinary workers at that time was only five to six hundred.

“It’s nothing, a good friend should give you the best.” Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile.

 “As expected of my buddy.” Wang Di said proudly.

“That’s fine, then you don’t have to eat instant noodles all the time in the future. If you eat any more, your intestines will be sticky.” Feng Xuejiao nodded.

“Bah, bah, bah, crow’s beak, whose intestines are connected together.” Wang Di spat.

 Other students were also envious when they learned that Wang Di had won a Spalding basketball. Even Hu Kaizhi, who had always been arrogant, looked a little embarrassed. He would no longer be able to use "my ball" to blackmail others.
