Rebirth Begins with Rejecting my Childhood Friend - Chapter 167

Song Siyu beside her had complicated emotions at the moment.

She had long noticed Wang Juncai on the field.

His performance was neither good nor bad, just average.

In contrast, Xu Xiuwen stood out.

Deep down, Song Siyu was actually proud and strong-willed.

Her boyfriend couldn’t compare to her roommate’s boyfriend in any aspect, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

She had reminded Wang Juncai more than once not to play games all day, to focus more on studying, and strive to graduate and get into the local university.

But Wang Juncai always brushed her off, with no practical actions, which left her very disappointed.

She even began to regret why she had agreed to be his girlfriend in the first place.

She thought back to the three years of high school.

Wang Juncai had pursued her relentlessly for three years.

During that time, she had never given him a smile.

But Wang Juncai had never complained.

Although Song Siyu didn’t like Wang Juncai, she was somewhat touched by his deep affection and persistence.

However, being touched didn’t equate to liking him.

She had always been clear about her feelings.

It was not until the night of the graduation dinner after high school.

At the dinner, Wang Juncai officially confessed his love.

He was dressed nicely, his hair was neatly combed, and he naturally looked handsome, so he was very charming that day.

He held flowers, knelt in front of her amidst the gaze of many classmates, and passionately confessed his love.

Since the college entrance exam results came out, Song Siyu had never thought of staying in Beijing. She deliberately chose a university outside of Beijing, partly due to family reasons, and partly to avoid Wang Juncai.

But when she found out that Wang Juncai had applied to the same university in Jinling, she was very surprised.

He clearly stated that even if she didn’t agree to be his girlfriend now, he would continue to pursue her, just like in high school, relentlessly until she agreed.

Song Siyu was very clear that she had never liked Wang Juncai, but she was moved by his deep affection at the time, coupled with the cheers of their classmates, she softened her heart and agreed.

The next day, Song Siyu regretted it.

But she wasn’t someone who went back on her word.

She quietly told herself that since she didn’t like anyone at the moment, she might as well give Wang Juncai a chance.

After all, Wang Juncai was suitable for her in every aspect.

Deep down, she still had expectations for Wang Juncai.

She hoped he would perform well and try to make her like him sooner.

However, since coming to Jinling, perhaps because he was away from his hometown and without his parents’ supervision, Wang Juncai completely let loose.

Every day, he was either playing games or on his way to play games.

She couldn’t understand, were games really that fun?

Wang Juncai disappointed her greatly.

The thoughts of the people on the sidelines, the people on the field didn’t have time to care.

Xu Xiuwen’s eyes were fixed on the ball.

When Liu Liang chose to win by force, he felt the danger.

But in his eyes, the trajectory of the ball was fast yet not too fast.

Xu Xiuwen pounced towards the direction of the ball, precisely intercepting it.

However, the huge rebound force caused the ball to roll back to the feet of the forward of the Computer Science Department.

He shot immediately.

Xu Xiuwen jumped up, his abdomen and hands directly holding the ball.

Xu Xiuwen once again guarded the goal!

The players from the Management and Engineering Department shouted like crazy, each of them excited almost to tears.

Xu Xiuwen stood up with the ball in his arms, showing a relaxed smile to his teammates.

“Xiuwen!” x10

Everyone was touched!

But being moved didn’t turn into strength.

Although the Computer Science Department failed to score twice, by now, all the players of the Management and Engineering Department were exhausted. They couldn’t even get the ball past the midfield, let alone to the Computer Science Department’s goal.

In the following time, almost all the players from the Computer Science Department pressed forward, launching a fierce attack on the Management and Engineering Department’s goal.

However, Xu Xiuwen was like an indestructible cockroach, repeatedly guarding the goal, neutralizing the tide-like attacks.

It was like watching a magic show, too incredible.

At this moment, all the students in the stands stood up, applauding Xu Xiuwen.

Even the referee teachers couldn’t help but look at him with astonishment and admiration.

His performance conquered all the students and teachers.

With less than 3 minutes left in the game, the players from the Computer Science Department also began to show signs of fatigue.

Liu Liang had gone through several shots, consuming a lot of energy. He leaned on his knees, panting heavily.

His eyes were fixed on Xu Xiuwen, full of resentment.

If it weren’t for him, how could the Computer Science Department not have scored a goal by now!

If the game ended in a draw, then the Management and Engineering Department could accept it, but the players from the Computer Science Department, especially him, absolutely could not accept this situation.

This would be the biggest regret of his life.

He couldn’t allow this to happen.

There were less than 3 minutes left.

Liu Liang knew that now was his last chance.

Whether to score and win the game or be dragged to a draw and go to penalty shootouts, it was all decided in this moment.

Restarting the game.

The defender quickly passed the ball to the winger, and Liu Liang gave up dribbling and instead moved to the left side of the field, lying in wait here.

Two wingers attacked from the center and right respectively. The right winger brought the ball to the right side of the penalty area, attracting Xu Xiuwen’s attention.

Then the right winger quickly passed the ball to the center.

Liu Liang knew the opportunity had come.

He and the left winger rushed towards the ball, making it impossible for anyone to guess who the ball was intended for.

The left winger arrived in front of the ball first, but he feigned a shot, suddenly blocking the ball.

And Liu Liang, who rushed out from the left wing, took advantage of the left winger’s cover and shot forcefully!

This was the tactic they had discussed just now.

Using the right winger to distract Xu Xiuwen’s attention, then using the left winger to block the ball, making it impossible for the goalkeeper of the Management and Engineering Department to see the ball’s position clearly.

The final move was his powerful shot!

The coordination of the three was extremely tacit, and everything went according to plan.

Liu Liang hid behind the left winger and shot.

By the time Xu Xiuwen saw the ball, it was already in the air.

Even if it were a professional goalkeeper, they might not be able to react in time.

But Xu Xiuwen’s body was strengthened after rebirth, almost like a bug compared to ordinary people!

Not only did he quickly judge the direction of the ball, but he also reacted immediately.

Xu Xiuwen jumped up, floating in the air horizontally.

The next second.

The ball hit Xu Xiuwen’s stomach precisely.

After landing, Xu Xiuwen immediately pressed the rolling ball tightly against the ground with his hands.

“Wow!”

The crowd from the Management and Engineering Department erupted into deafening cheers, followed by other students who snapped out of their trance, joining in the applause!

Xu Xiuwen almost single-handedly, under the relentless attacks from the Computer Science Department, guarded the goal.

With time running out, it seemed like the two teams were going to tie!
