It has been over a thousand years since he had touched a basketball, so even Snake felt an itch to play. He then went into the changing room to get a change of clothes.
Gregory was not from the basketball club, but he was tall, well-built and handsome, so Zhan Jin Cheng wanted to pull him in to the basketball club as well. However, Gregory clearly treated Bai Lan as an enemy, refusing to leave Gu Mengmeng’s side, giving her all his attention. As a result, despite multiple attempts of Zhan Jin Cheng trying to communicate with him, it all was futile, so he gave up eventually.
Then, considering that Snake and Gregory were love rivals for the harmony of the team, Zhan Jin Cheng could only give up the thought of trying to get Gregory into the team.
Meanwhile, other than Zhan Jin Cheng, no one else realised these thoughts were going on…
That was the legendary saying of a whole act played out in one’s mind, but without any audience.
When Snake played basketball, he indeed looked very handsome, so Gu Mengmeng was distracted by him after only speaking a few sentences to Bai Lan.
Bai Lan scoffed at the side, “Not bad.”
She then shot a warning gaze at Gregory, roughly meaning: See that? They are both on great terms. You better back off, do not destroy their relationship.
Gregory did not bother about Bai Lan’s warning, only silently gazing in awe at Gu Mengmeng, who was infatuated over Snake.
Did he also want to be one to attract her gaze? Gregory considered that question seriously.
If he had to be sweaty on the basketball court just so she could look at him with such awe, would he be willing to? The answer was certain, he definitely would.
However, if she were to look at him like that, but he could not look back at her the same, and had to miss such an expression of hers, would he still be willing to?
He would not!
He roamed in Motou for a thousand years, thus had a thousand years less to look at her, so now… he was not willing to have one less look at her.
So what if her gaze was not gathered on him? As long as she was in his line of sight, he felt a sense of bliss.
After the practice ended, Snake brought Gu Mengmeng and Gregory back to the villa.
Snake’s sports car only had two seats, so a business car was temporarily transported from the company, while his sports car was directly parked at the school, since no one would dare to interfere.
It was Gregory’s first time on a car ride, so he seemed anxious and uneasy. To comfort him, Gu Mengmeng accompanied him in the backseat.
That made Snake displeased, but he only grunted, “Weak”, nothing else.
Gregory did not fight back. If showing his weakness could get Baby Meng to accompany and care for him, then he would not mind showing his weakness all the time.
After all, out of the four males at home, he was the only third-level beast.
Gu Mengmeng held Gregory’s hand, lightly patting the back of his hand, “It’s okay it’s okay, don’t worry, Snake is a good driver, a real veteran.”
“I am not afraid, as long as you are here.” Gregory smiled back warmly.
Afraid, would be an exaggeration.
It was just that a car ride was so new to him, that Gregory was slightly nervous.
Fortunately, Snake drove home steadily, without deliberately sprinting to scare Gregory on purpose.
The moment they alighted, Gu Mengmeng’s phone rang. The caller ID showed Bai Lan’s name, she Gu Mengmeng did not think much before picking up, “Hello, Bai Lan, it’s only been a while and you’re already missing me?”
A creepy laughter echoed from the other side of the phone call. That creepy laugh, had been processed through a voice changer.
“Seems like, I did not kidnap the wrong person.” The voice from the phone call sounded like a robot with insufficient battery.
