"So amazing…"
Even Fang Yanxi couldn't help but applaud and cheer for the man at this moment.
Wan Yunting turned his head to look at her, as if seeing the girl who used to love watching him play basketball from the sidelines and cheer him on, which made him flash a sunny and handsome smile.
"This guy, after being in prison for so many years, his ball skills haven't regressed; instead, they've become even more impressive!"
Jiang Peipei's eyes were wide open, staring blankly at Wan Yunting's move to grab the ball in mid-air and dunk it. Although she had seen many difficult moves on professional basketball courts, she had never seen anything like Wan Yunting's move on the court before.
Seeing Jiang Peipei, Wan Yunting no longer paid attention to Dai Hongyang. He threw the basketball in his hand to a boy beside him and walked towards Fang Yanxi and Jiang Peipei. "Jiang Peipei, long time no see. Why are you at school?"
"Hi, long time no see."
Jiang Peipei, who had recovered, waved at him and smiled, "I'm a sports teacher at the school now, and also the head coach of the basketball team!"
"That's great, Peipei. You've become the head coach."
Fang Yanxi praised, and Wan Yunting also nodded in agreement with a smile…
Recalling the past, Jiang Peipei, due to her tall stature, also liked playing basketball and had joined the school's women's basketball team. Whenever she had free time, she would find Wan Yunting to play, so their relationship was quite good.
However, after the rape case happened, Jiang Peipei truly believed he was that kind of person. Then Wan Yunting was imprisoned, so they lost contact.
But in the past few days, the news had been reporting that Wan Yunting was wrongly accused in the rape case. Jiang Peipei already knew about it, so she was very surprised to see Wan Yunting now, and at the same time, she felt guilty for having believed he was a rapist back then.
"Why are you guys here at school?"
Jiang Peipei didn't bring up that topic but looked curiously at Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi who came to school together. She smiled and said, "We haven't been back for a long time, so we took the opportunity to come and see what has changed in the school today."
Wan Yunting nodded and asked Jiang Peipei, "With your ball skills back then, you should have been a professional basketball player, right? Why are you a sports teacher now?"
After all, Jiang Peipei was tall and had good basketball skills, so she should have been able to join a professional basketball team to compete.
"I joined the provincial professional women's basketball team and played for a few years. However, due to a foot injury and my skills not keeping up, I retired early. After that, I simply became a sports teacher," Jiang Peipei said with a smile.
So that's how it is… Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi nodded.
"Peipei, who is this?"
Dai Hongyang, who had finally recovered, didn't expect Jiang Peipei to know him.
"Him!"
Jiang Peipei pointed at Wan Yunting and said, "He is Wan Yunting, the holder of the record for most single-game points in the basketball match between our school's basketball team's 19th session and the adjacent medical university!"
"Holy crap, so it was him who set the record of 98 points in a single game…"
At this moment, those students from the school basketball team exclaimed. They knew that Huadu University's basketball team still had the record of 95 points in a single game by Wan Yunting hanging on the training ground wall.
As a result, that guy and Dai Hongyang, who were recklessly provoking him, turned out to be the legend that Jiang Peipei often mentioned!
Because Wan Yunting was a very good basketball player back then, he represented the school basketball team in provincial university basketball competitions and won consecutive championships for two years, which was definitely something to brag about.
So it was him!
Dai Hongyang stared directly at Wan Yunting. After all, he had been in the news all these days, and it wasn't strange that he looked somewhat familiar before.
But even so, Dai Hongyang was unconvinced, especially after being humiliated in front of his students, so he held a grudge against Wan Yunting!
Jiang Peipei also did not expect Wan Yunting's basketball skills to become so formidable. After all, Dai Hongyang was also a retired player from the provincial team. In terms of skill, he was no less than herself. As for her becoming the school's head coach, it was entirely because Dai Hongyang was pursuing Jiang Peipei, so he was willing to be the assistant coach.
However, Dai Hongyang was arrogant and competitive, as could be seen from his provocation of Wan Yunting just now, so Jiang Peipei did not like him.
"Yanxi, Yunting, let me take you to tour the school."
"Okay…"
Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi nodded. Jiang Peipei asked Dai Hongyang to lead the team's students in training first and then took the two of them to see the updated parts of the school.
"By the way, is Teacher Huang still at school?" Wan Yunting asked suddenly.
"Yes."
Knowing he was referring to Teacher Huang Rong, who was Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi's academic advisor back then, Jiang Peipei sighed, "But Teacher Huang has encountered some trouble recently!"
"What's wrong?"
Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi were confused, as they came to the school precisely to see Teacher Huang.
"To be precise, it's about Teacher Huang's daughter," Jiang Peipei said with a shrug and a pout.
"Huang Yuqing!"
Fang Yanxi uttered the name. Wan Yunting also knew her, as Teacher Huang's daughter was also a university student in the same year as them.
"Teacher Huang should be in the faculty building now. I'll take you to see him."
Saying that, Jiang Peipei led them directly to the faculty building and arrived at Teacher Huang Rong's office. He was now the Dean of Students.
"Teacher Huang, look who I brought."
Jiang Peipei walked in boldly and smiled at a man in his fifties sitting at the desk.
Huang Rong turned his head and then saw Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi walk in with smiles, respectfully and politely, and they called out in unison, "Teacher Huang, long time no see…"
"Wan Yunting, Fang Yanxi!"
Seeing his two former students, Huang Rong's eyes widened, showing an expression of disbelief.
It was known that Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi had become prominent figures at Huadu University in their sophomore year. Not only were they a perfect match, but their academic performance was also ranked first in the school.
However, after the scandal of Wan Yunting's rape, he was sentenced to prison, and Fang Yanxi transferred to the UK. This caused Huang Rong to lose two talented students, which deeply pained him.
"Oh my, it's you two."
Huang Rong excitedly stood up to greet them. Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi each held one of his arms. "Teacher Huang, we're back to see you."
"Good, good, good. It's good that you're back."
Huang Rong was very happy and excited. He patted Wan Yunting's shoulder and smiled, "Yunting, I saw the news recently. Now all the teachers in our school know that you were framed back then. It's finally cleared your name."
"Mhm."
Wan Yunting was also moved inwardly, as he was a former esteemed teacher.
Back when he was framed, Huang Rong stubbornly held back the police, begging and saying that he was framed and that he didn't believe his student was a rapist.
Wan Yunting would never forget that scene. He returned to school this time primarily to see Teacher Huang Rong.
"Yanxi is also very capable. She's taken over the CEO position of your company right after returning," Huang Rong said, looking at Fang Yanxi and praising her with a smile.
Fang Yanxi smiled and shook her head. Huang Rong quickly pulled them over to sit down, "Come, come, sit down. We haven't seen each other for seven years. Let's catch up…"
As soon as Wan Yunting and Fang Yanxi sat down, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a male teacher shouted in panic, "It's bad, Teacher Huang! Yuqing is going to jump off the building."
"What!"
This sentence instantly startled Huang Rong, his eyes widening. His body swayed, and Wan Yunting immediately got up to support him and asked the teacher, "Why would Yuqing jump? Where is she now?"
"She hasn't jumped yet. She's on the rooftop terrace now," the teacher said, pointing at the ceiling.
Upon hearing that his daughter hadn't jumped yet, Huang Rong's heartbroken heart revived. He stumbled out of the door, and Wan Yunting, Fang Yanxi, and Jiang Peipei immediately followed him out, all rushing towards the rooftop terrace of the faculty building.
At this moment, many teachers were already gathered there, looking at a woman standing on the rooftop guardrail. She was wearing a floral print dress, with her long black hair dancing in the wind. She had her back to everyone, facing downwards, towards the sixth-floor faculty building. Many students who saw this scene had also gathered below to watch the spectacle.
