The Tang Family’s Seven Os - Chapter 141

Xia Cheng Lang endured it for 20 minutes, then he couldn’t wait to lift the mask and fled Tang Liu Yuan’s house in a hurry.

……If he explains to his cousin now, he should still be in time right?

Tang Qi Yuan heard the door open from the room and wanted to come out and say goodbye to Xia Cheng Lang, but only saw Xia Cheng Lang’s back, and could not help but stand at the door and sigh: “Student Xia is in such a hurry to go home to study, indeed a good youth who loves learning, cherishing every minute and every second is the real way to not waste time! It would be great if classmate Sheng could learn from him too.”

“That’ll depend on you to keep working hard.” Tang Liu Yuan smiled, not discouraging his brother, and went over to put the rest of the facial masks away in the cupboard.

Tang Qi Yuan walked over to stop him and said: “Ge, let me see that facial mask, after listening to classmate Xia’s lecture, I think what he said makes sense and I want to research the ingredients of the facial mask to see if it’s really that good for the skin.”

Tang Liu Yuan knew that he was always eager to learn about all kinds of things, so he handed him the mask without saying much, and urged, “Don’t stay up too late studying, remember to go to bed early.”

After he finished speaking, he directly went into the bathroom for a shower. When he came out of the shower, he saw Tang Qi Yuan still studying the facial mask, sitting on the sofa and staring at the box with a puzzled expression. He picked up the hair dryer that Xia Cheng Lang bought last time while asking: “What’s wrong?”

Tang Qi Yuan looked up, “Ge, just now I thought it was a bit strange when I saw classmate Xia applying the facial mask, so I looked at the instructions on the back of the box.”

Tang Liu Yuan powered up the hair dryer and raised his eyebrows slightly. He had actually forgotten to read the instructions, but since Xia Cheng Lang often applied facial masks anyway, he knew how to use it without reading the instructions.

Tang Qi Yuan continued: “The instructions say that when applying the mask, you need to tear off the mesh layer, but Ge, why did classmate Xia apply two layers just now?”

Tang Liu Yuan paused in his movements, frowned slightly, was silence for a moment before saying: “……He probably doesn’t know.”

“Eh? Doesn’t classmate Xia often apply facial masks? How could he not even know about such a simple issue? I think there must be a reason for him to do so.” Tang Qi Yuan looked a little surprised as he picked up his phone and continued to search, seemingly trying to find out the reason why Xia Cheng Lang put on two layers of the mask.

Tang Liu Yuan didn’t say anything as he turned on the hair dryer, the wind roaring in his ears, he couldn’t help but be slightly lost in thought, but quickly put his thoughts back and concentrated on blowing his hair.

It’s just a facial mask, it doesn’t mean anything.

……

The day of Xia Cheng Lang’s basketball game, it happened to be Tang Liu Yuan’s turn to be on duty. He finished cleaning the classroom before hurrying to the basketball court, and when he was halfway there, he thought about it and turned to the nearest shop to buy a bottle of mineral water, holding it in his hand.

After all this tossing, Tang Liu Yuan was a little late when he arrived at the basketball court. Now that the college entrance examination is getting closer and closer, but the number of people in the audience was on the contrary, not small, and the seats are full.

The game was about to start and Tang Liu Yuan searched a long time for a seat but could not find one. He was going to stand under a tree to watch the game when he saw Chen She waving at him from the front of the spectator stand.

He hesitated for a moment and walked through the crowd.

Chen She was relieved to see him and pulled him to sit down in the seat next to him, “You’re finally here, if you still don’t come Xia Ge will be angry.”

Tang Liu Yuan looked up at the basketball court and met the gaze of Xia Cheng Lang, whose eyes were both angry and complaining.

Tang Liu Yuan was at a loss for words in the face of Xia Cheng Lang’s anger, so he froze and pursed his lips, while Xia Cheng Lang glared at him for a moment, but could not resist flashing him a bright smile.

Tang Liu Yuan smiled after him and made a cheering gesture across the air towards Xia Cheng Lang.

The smile on Xia Cheng Lang’s face widened for a moment, and everyone in the audience noticed Xia Cheng Lang’s line of sight and looked over towards Tang Liu Yuan.

Today’s game is a match between Huang Han High School and the school team of a neighbouring school, everyone is paying close attention. The next moment the whistle blew and the match officially began.

As Tang Liu Yuan was sitting under the stage, Xia Cheng Lang played with great vigour and did not give his opponent any leeway, dunking and shooting three-pointers, causing the audience to scream in succession.

As Chen She watched the basketball court, he clapped his legs in excitement and kept chanting to Tang Liu Yuan, “Xia Ge is playing so ferociously today, it must be because you’re here that he’s so excited, I haven’t seen him play basketball so well in a long time.”

Tang Liu Yuan didn’t say anything, his eyes urgently fixed on Xia Cheng Lang on the basketball, his forehead dripping with sweat, his eyes in high spirits, his dribbling movements skilful and handsome.

The neighbouring school’s team, not sure whether they were being pushed into anxiety by his constant scoring, they replaced their centre position with a substitute. After the substitute athlete came on the court, he acted rudely and rammed everywhere, wanting to collide with Xia Cheng Lang several times. In a moment of effort, he took advantage of Xia Cheng Lang’s inattentiveness and stretched his foot to trip him.

Tang Liu Yuan held his breath for a moment, his eyes widened and he stood up nervously all of a sudden, “Be careful!”

Xia Cheng Lang’s pupils opened slightly and he reacted extremely quickly by taking a step forward and dodging the substitute athlete’s foot, but the teammate behind him was not as lucky and tripped and fell to the ground, immediately crying out in pain, looking like he had twisted his foot.

The referee immediately blew his whistle and the player from the neighbouring school who tripped people was punished to get off the court, and Xia Cheng Lang’s teammate could no longer play and was helped off the court.

“Those sons of bitches!” Chen She took off his school uniform and slammed it on the bench, picking up a basketball uniform that was on the side. He was also a player on the school’s basketball team, but only did not play because he had to take the police academy exam soon and was worried about getting injured, not expecting this gang from the neighbouring school to pull off something like this.

Xia Cheng Lang walked off the court with a grim look on his face, holding back his anger as he stared sullenly at the guys from the neighbouring school, who had just tried to pull him off the court with the worst-playing substitute athlete, which was really abominable.

“Don’t be angry, play well.” Tang Liu Yuan advised, handing over the water bottle in his hand, his cuffs revealing a section of his lean wrist.

Xia Cheng Lang’s mood improved after looking at him, took the water bottle and tilted his head to drink a few mouthfuls, raised his eyebrows at Tang Liu Yuan and said: “Do you know how to play basketball?”

Tang Liu Yuan nodded, “I know a little.”

“Do you want to play a game?”

Tang Liu Yuan glanced at the court and shook his head, “I’m worried I’ll hold you guys back, I haven’t played in a while.”

Xia Cheng Lang didn’t care, “It’s alright, it’s easy to deal with this group of small people, you can’t lose, just think of it as getting on the court for fun.”

Tang Liu Yuan was a little hesitant, “But you guys and I haven’t trained together, we don’t have a tacit understanding.”

Xia Cheng Lang hooked his lips, “It’s enough for you and I to have tacit understanding.”

He took off his own uniform and threw it to Tang Liu Yuan, then grabbed the uniform from Chen She’s hand and put it on his own body.

When the students at the side saw this scene, there was an uproar. An Alpha taking off his own uniform to give to an Omega, it is difficult not to attract attention.

Tang Liu Yuan held the uniform in his hand, his cheeks unconsciously reddened, he hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the uniform and put it on, “Ok!”

Chen She stood dumbfounded, “So……I’m not needed?”

Xia Cheng Lang tossed Tang Liu Yuan’s school bag to him, “Watch our stuff for us.”

“……” Chen She sat down silently, feeling like he had been critically hit by a love dog.

Tang Liu Yuan was thinner than Xia Cheng Lang and Xia Cheng Lang’s uniform was empty on his body. His arms and legs looked too thin and white in the crowd. The captain of the neighbouring school laughed when he saw him, “Little brother looks quite handsome, but your little arm and leg, if my buddies bumps it, I’m afraid it will hurt you, Omegas just stay at home, why come here to join in the fun?”

Xia Cheng Lang’s face sank and he immediately wanted to rush up to him, but Tang Liu Yuan reached out and tugged his arm, stepped forward and looked at the captain of the neighbouring school and sneered: “So much nonsense.”

The neighbouring school captain was stunned for a moment, and then smiled contemptuously, not taking Tang Liu Yuan into account at all, “Yo! Little Omega’s tone is not small, fine, then Ge Ge will see if you can throw in a ball.”

Both teams’ faces turned serious as the referee blew his whistle again and Xia Cheng Lang was the first to go up and grab the basketball. After he grabbed the basketball, he didn’t shoot it but passed it directly to Tang Liu Yuan who was not far away.

When Tang Liu Yuan caught the ball, everyone’s eyes were on him, and he looked up at Xia Cheng Lang, who gave him an easy smile.

Tang Liu Yuan curled his lips, leapt up and shot a three-pointer directly in front of everyone’s surprised eyes.

The faces of the neighbouring school captains instantly changed, and Chen She was the first to call out from the floor, “Good!”

Xia Cheng Lang’s eyes lit up and he smiled brightly at Tang Liu Yuan, then without hesitation, he gave the neighbouring school captain a middle finger.

Tang Liu Yuan lifted his chin to the neighbouring school captain, “One.”

He had already scored one goal.

The neighbouring school captain was too angry to speak, his face was gloomy as he stared at the basketball with fists in the air, he didn’t believe he couldn’t beat a little Omega.

Xia Cheng Lang sneered, “Continue!”

……

Xia Cheng Lang was right, in this game, Tang Liu Yuan only needed to have a tacit understanding with him, because in the whole court, it was only the two of them who were cooperating, and there was no room for others to intervene.

Huang Han High School’s ball kept entering the basket one after another, and the score was getting bigger and bigger. The faces of the players from the neighbouring school were getting ugly, especially their captain’s, who had a black face and could no longer say anything contemptuous. He never thought that the thin-looking Omega would play basketball so well, and this Omega and Xia Cheng Lang cooperated seamlessly and in an incomparable tacit understanding.

The score of Huang Han High School had completely crushed the neighbouring school, and the neighbouring school had no chance of turning a defeat into a victory, completely losing their fighting spirit. Later, the audience were basically watching Xia Cheng Lang and Tang Liu Yuan perform.

Xia Cheng Lang and Tang Liu Yuan cooperated as if they were playing, and basically no one else was in sight.

In the end, Xia Cheng Lang held Tang Liu Yuan around the waist, lifting him up and letting him dunk the basketball into the basket, ending the game, and the cheers in the stadium were overwhelmingly loud.

Chen She sat in the crowd and was simply blinded by the two of them showing off. He pursed his lips and prostrated in admiration to them both, “It’s still you guys who knows how to show off!”
