I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl

Chapter 496 – Scene Reversal

The class leader talked to the girl who cried after receiving one ball and asked her to give her uniform to Xiao Qin. The two of them actually had very similar figures and her uniform was very fitting.

With my assurance, the class leader went against other people’s opinions and let Xiao Qin play. Both Loud Mouth and Little Smart was startled to the point they almost fainted. How could someone who was sickly since birth compete against athletically gifted students?

Xiao Qin had changed into her volleyball uniform and walked onto the court dumbfounded. Xiong YaoYue questioned her:

“Whose awful idea was it? Xiao Qin fainted at the flag raising ceremony after standing for ten minutes, so isn’t letting her on court simply a death sentence?”

The class leader pointed to me with her gaze, “It was Ye Lin. He said Xiao Qin was a hidden master, so we might as well give it a try.”

Wow, the class leader pushed all the responsibility to me, but it’s obvious you were curious about Xiao Qin’s true strength. Xiao Qin has shown a strange amount of strength many times and you already judged her to be above Loud Mouth and Xiong YaoYue, so that means you must be looking forward to her performance, right?

“I do remember something now that you mention it.” Xiong YaoYue held her chin and said, “I was playing with a ball once and Xiao Qin caught it easily with a single hand when I hit it, so does that mean she’s the dark horse of class 2-3?”

“No, I was just lucky.” Xiao Qin giggled as she smoothed out the wrinkles on her volleyball shorts, “I don’t know how to play volleyball at all, so I hope everyone can take care of me and not blame me if I make mistakes.”

Xiong YaoYue, who didn’t really believe it would work, still arranged Xiao Qin in the class leader’s defense position to give it a try.

“Xiao Qin, you have to make it out alive!” Loud Mouth yelled.

Little Smart didn’t shout, but she also worried for Xiao Qin.

It was natural for the girls to begin whispering to each other, but they boys also began secretly discussing about Xiao Qin.

“What’s going on, didn’t Ren XiaoQin have leukemia? How can she play?”

“It’s Zhuang Ni who has leukemia. Ren XiaoQin just has a weak constitution.”

“I heard it was Ye Lin who told Xiao Qin to play...”

“Huh, aren’t they childhood friends? Ye Lin is so cruel, it’s probably another way for him to bully her.”

“To be honest, Ren XiaoQin’s legs might not be as slender as the class leader’s, but hers is also a good. I’ve actually liked her since the day she transferred here, but too bad she doesn’t speak with guys....”

“Shhh! Do you want to die? There’s people who has seen Ren XiaoQin linking arms with Ye Lin on the streets. Are you actually going to make a move on Ye Lin’s girl?”

“I was just saying...”

When the timeout was over and the whistle blew, Niu ShiLi said to me:

“Ye Lin, what kind of joke are you making by making Xiao Qin play. Her body...”

Before he could even finish his sentence, class 3-3’s ruthless server aimed at the new player and sent a ball hurtling towards her.

Even a professional would find it hard to receive a high speed rotating ball. Xiong YaoYue, who was too far and unable to help could only shout: “Careful!”

Xiao Qin stood smiling at the same spot with no intentions of dodging it. Her naturally dumb expression led everyone to believe she would be struck down by the ball and then carried off court.

What was unfathomable was Xiao Qin raised her arms to protect her face in the nick of time. Spectators weren’t able to see the intricacies as the volleyball actually changed directions and gently bounced towards Xiong YaoYue. It was as if Xiao Qin had inadvertently given a great pass.

The students on the other team thought Xiao Qin would collapse with one blow and were caught off guard by Xiong YaoYue’s spoke, so they lost the right to serve.

A new wave of discussion spread among the spectators:

“That substitute player has amazing luck, I can’t believe she was able to pass it in that position.”

“And her arms didn’t get bruised at all! Class 2-3’s class leader only received a couple balls and her arms are all swollen... how did she do that.”

Niu ShiLi also had a stunned expression.

But I knew Xiao Qin was using Yin Yang Sanshou. She first removed the force of the ball at a speed that can’t be tracked, then she passed it.

In addition, Xiao Qin also made it seem like an accident in front of hundreds of spectators. You could tell how much more skilled Xiao Qin was at Yin Yang Sanshou than me at a glance.

“Don’t get careless. This Ren XiaoQin isn’t who she appears to be and won’t be easy to deal with.”

The school beauty shouted unexpectedly to the athletically gifted students.

I then remembered about the time I asked Xiao Qin to help me buy some water. Because there was only one bottle of water left, Xiao Qin had secretly squeezed the school beauty’s hand to get the last bottle. It caused the school beauty to always try and avoid Xiao Qin whenever she saw her.

It makes sense the school beauty would be afraid of Xiao Qin with that history behind them.

Thus, class 3-3 began a barrage of attacks towards Xiao Qin.

The speed, power, and angle all got progressive more difficult to handle with each hit.

But Xiao Qin was miraculously able to receive it every time.

Her actions weren’t professional, rather they were comical. Every time, she would be flustered and panicked, but there wasn’t any danger.

Sometimes she would turn to escape, then hit the ball with her back. Sometimes she would even use her head and face to block the ball.

If a normal person took of those jump serves to the head, they might not get a concussion, but they would at least be in a daze. But Xiao Qin acted as if nothing happened and it was like she absorbed the force of the ball once it came into contact with her body.

It meant Xiao Qin could use the full potential of Yin Yang Sanshou without even using her hands. Her talent in martial arts really puts me to shame and I’m not sure what I have to do to reach her level.

It might have been a coincidence if it only happened once or twice, but the spectators were amazed because it happened every single time. The opponents couldn’t take it easy anymore.

“Stop joking, even if it’s a friendly match, we can’t lose to these younger brats.”

The athletically gifted students abandoned the strategy of targeting Xiao Qin to spread out and prioritize winning the game.

But Xiao Qin, who was standing still earlier, began to wander around the court.

No, it wasn’t strategical movements, but rather aimless wandering, like she was walking an invisible dog.

The trajectory of the opponents’ balls were predicted by Xiao Qin time after time. It looked like she was wandering aimlessly, but she would always ‘coincidentally’ save the ball and pass it to Xiong YaoYue so she could launch an attack.

Class 2-3, who used to be on the defensive, switched to the offensive.

“Xiao Qin, good job.” Xiong YaoYue was overjoyed, “The next time you pass the ball, it can be faster and I’ll still be able to get it.”

“But I don’t know how to pass~~~” Xiao Qin continued to act dumb, “The ball hits me and coincidentally gets sent towards you.”

Having send that, her passes became significantly faster, thus Xiong YaoYue’s attacks also became faster and caused a great deal of trouble for their opponents.

The class leader, who was sitting on the sidelines, stared straight at Xiao Qin and murmured to the girls around her.

“I can’t see Xiao Qin’s hands move. If she told me she had superpowers, I might believe her...”

The girl standing next to the class leader was the one who was cried from being hit by the opponent’s serve. She was excited to see Xiao Qin, who was wearing her volleyball uniform, showing off her power and she shouted in excitement:

“Anyway, our class is about to win! We can even beat the seniors, we’re amazing!”

Due to Xiao Qin and Xiong YaoYue bringing out their best, the unbeatable class 3-3 was pushed back with a score of 14 : 10.

They would win and the game would end if they scored one more time. Xiao Qin, who might have been getting a bit impatient, revealed a more flashy martial arts move to receive a spike. But she became aware of it halfway and purposely fell down to cover up her true skills.

But Niu ShiLi’s trembled with fear as cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He stared straight at Xiao Qin as if her movements had triggered a distant memory...

Was it a memory of the time when Xiao Qin gave you a beating at the park? You didn’t remember her appearance, but you did remember her fists?

“No, impossible.” Niu ShiLi muttered to himself. He probably couldn’t believe that androgynous tomboy turned into such a cute girl. Even I had a hard time accepting this fact.

Before Xiao Qin threw herself on the ground, she set up the ball perfectly for Xiong YaoYue to attack. Xiong YaoYue yelled out “good” as she leaped up with all her strength and spiked the ball through the two defenders and towards the school beauty.

If the ball hit the ground, then class 3-3 loses. Even if the school beauty wasn’t skilled, she still had to push herself to save the ball.

I’m not sure if it was her bad luck or if Xiong YaoYue wanted revenge, but the ball hit the ground first then bounced back up straight between the school beauty’s legs.

The school beauty’s face turned pale as she covered her private areas and her legs went limp.

I’ve heard crotch hits for girls might not be as painful as for guys, but it still hurts.

Cheers of ‘we’re number one’ erupted throughout class 2-3. The school beauty fell into her own trap, she lost to her juniors and also got humiliated in public. I could only say: she deserved it.

The other class that was qualified to participate in the friendly match was the first year class champions, it was Shu Zhe’s class 1-4. After they heard we beat the third years, they forfeited and so class 2-3 received the title of first in the school for girl’s volleyball.

After the game ended, the class leader went to the infirmary to rest with a happy face. Xiong YaoYue chased Xiao Qin and wanted to learn how she saved the balls, but Xiao Qin used a stomach ache as an excuse and then hid behind me.

“(*^__^*) Hehe... where should we go on Saturday and Sunday?” Xiao Qin said to herself, “It’s a rare opportunity to go on a date with Ye Lin classmate, so why don’t we go to an amusement park and a zoo?”

“Hey.” I reminded her, “I only promised you one date, I never said I would give you the entire weekend. Choose if you want Saturday or Sunday and if you want to go to an amusement park or a zoo.”

Xiao Qin twiddled her thumbs, “I want to go to both places, it’s hard to choose.”
