Chapter 112 The People Who Are Needed
Shortly after 2 p.m., the basketball court became lively.
The audience seats were sparsely populated, mostly with students who came to watch the excitement.
Bai Xinran came with her roommate.
All four of them from their dorm arrived and found seats in the comics department's section.
As Bai Xinran sat down, she glanced at the field. The contestants were warming up, and Yu Heng was among them.
Yu Heng didn't have his phone with him at the moment, so he kept glancing at the audience to see if the people who said they were coming to watch his match had arrived.
He changed into a red jersey with the number 3 printed on the back in white.
This number is that of his favorite basketball player, Allen Iverson.
Bai Xinran was staring at Yu Heng in a daze, feeling that the burning sensation from the ginger hadn't completely subsided.
"Xinran, look over there!" Her roommate Liu Fangrui nudged her arm, laughing in a low voice, "Isn't that your club president?"
Bai Xinran nodded, and Liu Fangrui followed suit by submitting her application to join the company, but it was not approved.
She actually wanted to sit in the opposite seat to cheer for Yu Heng, but her roommates were all there, so it wasn't very convenient.
While her own team was playing, she went to cheer for the opposing team, which felt like a blatant act of betrayal.
Ning Yutong and Shen Yueling arrived together.
They arrived a little late and found two empty seats near the middle of the field.
As soon as Ning Yutong sat down, she peeked out and saw Yu Heng warming up. Her eyes lit up.
Qin Lu also brought Qin Ya. She hadn't wanted to come, but Lin Liyan had called again today, which annoyed her.
But Qin Ya insisted on coming to watch the game, and she couldn't refuse, so she brought her along.
Once inside the basketball court, the mother and daughter found a quiet corner to sit down.
Yu Heng was talking to his teammates when he noticed Qin Lu out of the corner of his eye and smiled at her.
Seeing him staring at her so openly, Qin Lu couldn't help but lower her head and pretend to straighten Qin Ya's collar.
The match started quickly.
The fight wasn't particularly intense, and the result was the same as in the previous life: Yu Heng and his team won.
Yu Heng high-fived his teammates and walked to the sidelines to wipe his sweat with a towel.
People began leaving the audience, and the noise grew louder.
Bai Xinran stood up with her roommate, but her eyes were fixed on the opposite side.
Ning Yutong pulled Shen Yueling down the stairs, and Qin Lu also led Qin Ya out from the corner.
Several women walked toward the same goal from different directions.
Yu Heng was drinking water when he saw them coming from the corner of his eye, so he put down his water bottle.
"Congratulations!" Ning Yutong spoke first, her voice tinged with laughter. "That's amazing!"
"It's alright." Yu Heng wiped his sweat and asked knowingly, "Why are you all here?"
"I came to watch your match," Ning Yutong said.
Shen Yueling didn't speak, but just looked at the injury on his elbow.
I bumped into something while I was trying to get the ball.
Qin Lu walked closer, keeping a slight distance, and asked in a casual tone, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, just a scrape," Yu Heng said.
Qin Ya peeked out from behind Qin Lu: "Brother, that three-pointer you just made was so cool!"
Yu Heng smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair.
Bai Xinran also came over, but she didn't get too close. She stood a few steps away and told her roommate to go back first.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, not wanting to just stand there, Yu Heng said, "Shall we go?"
As the group walked out of the basketball court, Qin Lu looked at Yu Heng and said, "I'll take Qin Ya to her live stream, you guys..."
"Then take us there," Yu Heng said, turning to Bai Xinran, "so we don't have to walk back."
"Alright, let's go then!" Qin Lu glanced at them, thinking to herself that as his mistress, she also had to send him and his other mistresses off.
-
The car stopped in front of the villa. Qin Lu turned off the engine but didn't immediately unbuckle her seatbelt.
"Thank you, teacher," Bai Xinran said first, her voice soft.
"It's nothing." She turned to look at the back seat. Yu Heng had already opened the car door and gotten out, and Qin Ya was already waiting at the door.
Yu Heng glanced at Qin Lu: "Aren't you getting off the bus?"
"Okay, I'm not going any further. I'll leave once you're inside," Qin Lu said.
Upon hearing this, Yu Heng gave the keys to Bai Xinran and told her to open the door first. Then he opened the passenger door and sat back down.
"What's wrong?" Yu Heng asked. "Did you call again?"
"Hmm..." Qin Lu took out her phone with a hint of helplessness. "They called again."
"It's okay, you can answer it," Yu Heng said, looking at her. "I'm here."
"What are you going to do?" Qin Lu raised an eyebrow at him.
"Nothing much," Yu Heng smiled. "Don't worry, I definitely won't get involved."
Qin Lu frowned, but finally answered the call. With Yu Heng there, she felt more confident.
She took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.
"Feed." Her voice was deliberately kept calm.
"Why did you hang up just now?" Lin Liyan asked impatiently. "Qin Lu, can we stop dragging this out? I've already drafted the agreement. The house and car are yours, the savings will be split in half, you'll have custody of Qin Ya, and I'll pay child support every month. Is that okay?"
Yu Heng sat in the passenger seat and could clearly hear the voice in the receiver.
He didn't speak, but just looked at Qin Lu's profile.
Qin Lu felt her cheeks getting hot.
The embarrassment of being dumped by another man in front of one man made her breathing heavier.
"Are you in such a hurry?" she asked, somewhat annoyed. "Lin Liyan, why are you doing this?"
There was a pause on the other end of the phone.
"What do you mean by 'why do we have to do this'?" Lin Liyan said. "Is there any point in us dragging this out? Can't we just part ways amicably?"
"I don't want to waste time with you," Qin Lu said. "I just don't understand. What is it about me that makes you look down on me so much? Why are you so eager to get her?"
She wasn't trying to win him back; she was simply unwilling to accept it.
What's wrong with her?
Why should we be treated like this?
"There's nothing wrong with you." Lin Liyan's voice was weary. "Qin Lu, you're a good person. You used to come from a good family, you were beautiful, and you had a great personality. But these years of marriage have been so stifling for me."
Qin Lu didn't say anything.
"I have no sense of presence in this family. I have to consider your parents' opinions for everything I do, and you're the same. I can't find any sense of accomplishment in you. You have no fun at all, and sometimes you don't even act like a woman," Lin Liyan chuckled, with a hint of self-deprecation. "On one rare occasion, you're like a dead fish in bed, but she's different. She makes me feel like a man, you know? With her, I feel needed."
Qin Lu's fingers dug into her palm.
Yu Heng frowned as he listened.
He really didn't want to get involved, but Lin Liyan's explanation was infuriating.
That's pure cowardly talk.
Qin Lu opened her mouth, but her throat felt like it was blocked by something.
A wave of humiliation mixed with anger surged through her. She wanted to retort, but didn't know which statement to make first.
Just then, Yu Heng reached over from the side and took the phone from her ear.
Qin Lu turned her head in surprise and saw that Yu Heng had already put the phone to his ear.
"Feed," Yu Heng said, his voice low but clear.
The person on the other end of the phone was clearly confused: "Who are you?"
"Me?" Yu Heng smiled and said, "I'm the one Qin Lu needs. If she's not romantic with you, that's your fault. I think she's quite feminine now. As for if you want to hear her moan? I can satisfy you right now."
