Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat
Chapter 335 - 335 332 The Influence of the Campus Belle

Chapter 335: Chapter 332: The Influence of the Campus Belle Chapter 335: Chapter 332: The Influence of the Campus Belle The start of the school year’s basketball game at Beijing University was not only a showdown between the finance and mathematics departments but also a matchup between the computer science and physics departments.

Even though Jiang Yan was extremely busy, his height stood out, and his excellent shooting skills displayed during his freshman year’s PE classes made him a must-have on the computer science department’s team roster.

On the physics department’s side, it was Shen Mengfei and Kou Chuan from Mu Jiawen’s class who were participating.

Having played against Jiang Yan once before, Shen Mengfei knew he was formidable. One could say that with Jiang Yan on the computer science team, their physics department had virtually no chance of winning.

Kou Chuan suggested to him, “Let’s get Mu Jiawen over here to cheer us on. I don’t believe Jiang Yan won’t be affected.”

“Good idea,” agreed Shen Mengfei.

Since he had already changed into his jersey and didn’t bring his phone, he ran over and spoke to Xue Weisong.

Xue Weisong looked up at him, “Mu Jiawen is not interested in basketball; calling her might not guarantee she’ll come.”

As the department flower of their physics department, if she were to come and cheer for the basketball team, wouldn’t everyone be as if injected with chicken blood, playing their hearts out?

But the problem was that Mu Jiawen never paid attention to these things, aside from attending classes and doing homework, she showed no interest in extracurricular activities.

“Don’t you have the phone numbers of Ding Yuanyuan and Liang Yujun? Ask them to bring her over. With Jiang Yan in play, us winning is out of the question, but at least we shouldn’t lose by too much, right?”

Xue Weisong also didn’t want to see Jiang Yan too smug and after thinking about it, called Liang Yujun.

About ten minutes later, the three girls from dorm 303 indeed brought Mu Jiawen over.

Just in time, since the game was starting in three minutes.

Shen Mengfei and Kou Chuan turned their heads and saw Mu Jiawen sitting down in the spectator stands, exchanged a glance, and smiled.

“Everyone, give it your all, our department flower is here to cheer us on!”

Kou Chuan shouted, and all the boys from the physics department looked toward the girls’ side, where Mu Jiawen, wearing a light blue long skirt, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, sat amidst the crowded crowd, her delicate and cool beauty particularly dazzling in the lingering glow of the sunset.

The boys of the physics department’s basketball team started howling.

Having a department flower who could overshadow those of other departments, and she belonged to their physics department, how did that feel? You wouldn’t know unless you were there!

Jiang Yan squinted towards the physics department’s spectator stands and saw Xue Weisong go up the steps on one side and hand a big bag to Mu Jiawen.

With his keen eyes, he could see that the things inside the bag were edible.

And after Mu Jiawen took it, she buried her head inside it, rummaging around, then drew out a brown bag, leisurely opening it and extracting something from inside to pop into her mouth. It seemed like only then did she remember why she was there, lazily lifting her eyes to look over at the basketball court.

Jiang Yan: …

You little stinker, did you come here to eat, or for something else?

Shen Mengfei ran over to him with a mischievous smile, “Jiang Yan, you’d better control your hands later, don’t keep finding homes for the basketball. Let it rest today, so you can explain yourself tonight, right?”

Jiang Yan understood Shen Mengfei’s intentions and snickered, “Today I’ll let you guys score at most three points, one more and I’ll take your surname.”

The smile froze on Shen Mengfei’s face as he glared at Jiang Yan, “You… did you see who’s sitting up there?”

“Are you talking about my girlfriend? Of course, I saw her. It’s precisely because she’s here that I need to shoot more hoops.”

The guys from the computer science department burst into laughter, and Shen Mengfei turned and walked away fuming.

However, Jiang Yan still underestimated the influence Mu Jiawen had on the male students of the physics department; they indeed played as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Even though their shooting skills weren’t great, their defense was fierce.

The Physics Department really only got three points, but their Computer Science Department didn’t do particularly well either, scoring nine points. They won, they won, but the gap wasn’t big.

Kou Chuan and Shen Mengfei both breathed a sigh of relief; as long as the loss wasn’t too humiliating, they had achieved their goal.

Meanwhile, Mu Jiawen ate from start to finish, with Xue Weisong giving her special local products brought by male students from other classes. Because she hadn’t tried some of them before, she found them quite interesting.

At least in her eyes, the snacks in the bag were more attractive than the basketball on the court.

It wasn’t until the end of the first half, during the break, that she finally noticed Jiang Yan.

It was tough for her to finally tear her attention away from the snack bag, and amidst the chorus of “Jiang Yan” from the Computer Science Department’s female students, she looked over curiously with wide eyes. Realizing it wasn’t someone with the same name but actually Jiang Yan, she paused her chewing, then turned to Liang Yujun and said, “Jiang Yan is here too.”

Liang Yujun was rather speechless. Ding Yuanyuan snatched a packet of snacks from her bag and complained, “It’s really not easy, you finally saw your darling Jiang Yan on the field before the match ended.”

Mu Jiawen disagreed, “He didn’t tell me in advance. With so many people wearing the same clothes, isn’t it normal not to recognize him?”

You can’t recognize your darling Jiang Yan, and you think that’s normal?

I wonder what Jiang Yan would think if he heard this.

Sha Yali waved them off, “Forget it, she’s already had the effect she was supposed to have by coming here. What does it matter if she sees Jiang Yan or not? Do you really want her to cheer for Jiang Yan?”

How could that be possible?

No matter what, they were all part of the Physics Department, and they still had a sense of collective pride.

After the match ended, Jiang Yan came over to find Mu Jiawen, wiping sweat from his forehead.

She was holding a bottle of Sprite, having just taken a couple of sips. When she saw him coming over, sweating profusely, she handed it to him without thinking.

Jiang Yan took the Sprite, tilted his head back, and guzzled it down in one go, making all the guys from the Physics Department green with envy!

Damn it, the Computer Science Department clearly has more girls, and you still have to come and pick our only flower.

If he wasn’t so tall, they really would have liked to give him a good beating!

That son of a gun, too shameless for words.

It was only then that Mu Jiawen finally remembered the important question, and asked Jiang Yan, “Did we win?”

“When you say ‘we,’ do you mean you and me, or your Physics Department?”

“Nonsense, of course I mean our Physics Department.”

“With me here, do you think your Physics Department could win?”

That remark made the nearby guys want to hit him again.

Mu Jiawen had asked merely out of courtesy, but she wasn’t really interested in the result.

After a few words, Jiang Yan went back to the dorm to shower and change clothes, and Mu Jiawen left with Liang Yujun and a few others.

By this time, new student registration had already ended, and the annual military training had just begun the day before yesterday. Walking down the road and seeing one camouflage uniform after another, it felt like time was flying by. They, had all become upperclassmen.

After dinner, Mu Jiawen went downstairs with a hot water flask to fill up. Maybe because she came down early, there weren’t many people in line.

She saw Qi Lihong, who had just filled her water and was about to leave, and was about to raise her hand to greet her when suddenly a hand reached out from the side and grabbed Qi Lihong’s sleeve, asking in an unfriendly tone, “Are you Qi Lihong?”
