Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 801

Chapter 801: Chapter 802: Of Course Boys Play Basketball

Before climbing the wall, Ye Xian cheered them on, Cary’s elbow resting on her shoulder, "Don’t worry, they are not as timid and delicate as you. Passing the challenge within thirty minutes is more than easy."

"I’ve already said I’m not timid."

Ye Xian shot him a look, Cary paused for a moment, then said, "But you have to admit you’re delicate, right? By the way, Ye Xian, I’ve always been curious, how is your body’s flexibility so good?"

From the previous girl group dance moves, to bending backward 180 degrees at the swimming pool, and then the 360-degree backflip just now, your flexibility gets stronger each time. Even professional female dance coaches find it hard to achieve, don’t they?

"And your shoulders are so soft, it’s always so comfortable to lean on..."

Before he could finish, Ye Xian stuffed a lollipop into his mouth.

Cary looked at the sudden lollipop in his mouth, "...What are you doing?"

Ye Xian smiled, "Thank you for giving me the lucky bead earlier and cheering me on, which allowed me to pass the challenge smoothly!"

Cary was moved, "You have a bit of conscience! I’ll gift you the lucky bead, no need to thank me!"

"No need for that~"

Ye Xian returned the lucky bead to him, then pushed away his arm that was resting on her shoulder, realizing she might need to be cautious about even casual gestures in the future.

The 30-meter climbing wall indeed wasn’t challenging for Lin Yan and Jiang Wanze, who train regularly, but Ye Xian noticed that halfway up, Jiang Wanze’s right hand trembled slightly as if it lacked strength, shifting his body’s weight entirely onto his left hand, relying almost solely on his left hand’s strength to climb the latter half.

Though he and Lin Yan both successfully passed, his right hand was visibly weak, and faint traces of red were seen between his clenched fingers.

With the first game completed, an ad played during the live stream, and the guests went off-stage to rest. Ye Xian frowned and walked towards Jiang Wanze, who was sitting alone, "Captain, what’s wrong with your hand?"

Jiang Wanze stiffened his body, "It’s nothing."

"I saw it."

Ye Xian grabbed his right arm and lifted it to find blood oozing from his fingertips.

"You’re bleeding?!"

"I’m fine."

Jiang Wanze tried to retract his hand, Lin Yan and Cary noticed too, with Cary directly opening his palm to reveal shocking scars and wounds, many of which had scabbed but were cut open again by the rocks.

"How did this happen?"

The three of them gazed at Jiang Wanze in astonishment; Jiang Wanze pursed his lips, silent as if he couldn’t explain.

Seeing he didn’t want to talk, Ye Xian didn’t press further and instructed Zhou Lu nearby, "Xiao Lu, go get my first aid kit."

"Okay."

Zhou Lu brought over the first aid kit. Ye Xian opened it, taking out iodine, cotton balls, and bandages...

Jiang Wanze: "I don’t need it."

"Don’t move! If it gets infected, it’ll be even more troublesome."

She spoke to him with such a firm tone for the first time, he quieted down, silently opened his hand, and let her do what she needed.

The young man bowed his head, his brows and eyes serious, his expression focused like a bright flame in the sky. It always illuminates the darkest, softest places in a person’s heart, bringing warmth.

Unfortunately... this light doesn’t belong to him.

But light is just light, it will always exist, always bring warmth and strength, even just looking from afar, isn’t that true?

Jiang Wanze looked at her, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, somewhat bitter yet also relieved.

Cary watched Ye Xian’s fluid movements as she bandaged and was amazed, "Ye Xian, your bandaging skills are so proficient!"

Cary: "..." That’s such a good point, I don’t even want to argue.

"Then girls understand tennis?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Absolutely, who hasn’t seen Prince of Tennis?"

Cary: "..." How does he know so much about girls? No wonder he’s so popular with women!

Cary leaned into her ear, "You should still choose basketball, the four of us can take care of that little brat Chu Yao! Avenge you!"

Ye Xian: "..." The idea is nice, but she chooses tennis.

Director: "Ye Xian, what’s your final choice?"

Ye Xian: "Tennis."

Cary: "?"

Lin Yan and Jiang Wanze looked at her puzzled, seemingly regretting not being able to play with her.

Director: "That’s fine, but to balance the game’s difficulty, tennis must be played in doubles, meaning you need to choose a teammate from the other five guests, let him give up basketball, and play tennis with you."

Choose a teammate?

Ye Xian automatically skipped Chu Yao and looked towards Liang Liang.

Liang Liang: "Sorry Ye Xian, although I really want to help, but I play tennis terribly, I really can’t afford to risk my points."

She looked at Lin Yan.

Lin Yan: "Ye Xian, I’m terrible at tennis."
