I'm A Baller

Chapter 185 - Why Are You Shaking?

Chapter 185: Why Are You Shaking?

Wang Yan’s apology in the beginning was so sincere and sounded to be from an innocent and silly middle school boy. It further increased the lethality of the last sentence, “Don’t be so smug”.

However, was Wang Yan innocent?

Yes, he was.

????

In any case, the boy left a deep impression on He Miaomiao.

When she returned to her phalanx, other girls immediately surrounded her and asked, “Miaomiao, what did the handsome boy say at the end?”

“Nothing.”

He Miaomiao thought to herself, “I’m not going to tell you guys. It’s nothing to be proud of, okay?”

In the end, seeing her evasiveness, the girls started to imagine things.

“Wow! Could it be that he really confessed his love for you?”

“I like you?!”

“You’re really beautiful?”

“No, no, no! It must be ‘can we add each other as wechat friends?’”

“It wasn’t that long, right?”

“Use your imagination, girls!”

“Haha, did he say… see you at the usual place?”

“Why isn’t it ‘long time no see’?”

“Are you alright?”

“I still love you!”

“Our son is very well…”

He Miaomiao’s eyes widened, and with a whoosh, she raised her hand and struck fiercely.

The tourism class was bustling with activity, but class one of economics looked a little gloomy.

“It’s over, it’s over. Our class monitor is going to be stolen by some b*tch from another class…”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Bai Zijiao was unconvinced. “The class monitor doesn’t have that kind of interest in her. Didn’t you see? He didn’t even say ‘you’re beautiful’!”

“That’s right, that’s right! Our class monitor is manly! Because he has a girlfriend, he won’t say it even if it’s a command. How rare is that guy?”

Everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense, so they admired Wang Yan even more.

However, the pressure that He Miaomiao brought didn’t go away so easily.

That girl was so beautiful. There was only a layer of sunscreen on her face and neck, but she was still unbelievably beautiful, especially her skin, so fair and tender.

Bai Zijiao and Tang Butian, among the other pretty girls in the class, got a little worried.

In fact, they didn’t really care what Wang Yan would do. After all, they didn’t love him. They were just unwilling to accept that another girl was more beautiful than them.

Among the girls, secret competitions were always the mainstream.

…

Facing Instructor Yan Chuan calmly, Wang Yan replayed in his mind his performance just now. He felt that he could give himself 95 points.

He deducted five points on the control of his expression. Perhaps he should have looked a little more arrogant and her reaction would be more interesting.

Alright, the matter was over. There was no need to think about it anymore. Go back to training!

Unexpectedly, instructor Yan, who looked especially fierce and cold, did not say anything. He only looked Wang Yan up and down and let him go.

“Return to the team!”

“Yes, sir!”

“All of you, run back to your positions. With Wang Yan as the lead, look to the right!”

The other seven boys ran back, sweating profusely, and lined up one by one.

While they looked right at Wang Yan, they stared at him fiercely, their gazes almost pierced holes in him.

Song Chen was admiring and worried, and Xu Tianci was both envious and jealous. Gao Hu’s eyes were burning with fire.

Objectively speaking, if Wang Yan hadn’t marched on in front of him, they might have already stopped before reaching the girls’ phalanx.

If that had happened, it would definitely have been more humiliating.

But showing gratitude to Wang Yan… was simply impossible!

You f*cking led us into the girls’ phalanx, and then went off to flirt with a girl, leaving us there to be stared at by the crowd… Bastard!

Even Song Chen was full of resentment after being teased by the girls; how could the others be grateful to Wang Yan?

Gao Hu was the angriest one. He was laughed at because of his homolateral walking and when he stood in the girls’ phalanx, he had been pointed at and sneered so much that he could not raise his head.

Then, he watched Wang Yan flirt with a girl and got everyone’s attention. He was so angry that he almost ground his teeth to pieces.

Bacon wrote in Bacon on life: a person can allow a stranger to make a fortune, but he can never forgive the rise of a person whom he knew.

In psychological theory, this is called the false uniqueness effect.

People are always used to overestimate themselves and look down on others, especially those close to them, to meet their psychological need to improve their own image.

Gao Hu was a good example of this theory.

He had just “overpowered” Wang Yan before the training started, thinking that this rich kid was just so-so. He had felt quite smug.

In the end, he made a fool of himself in the training while Wang Yan stood in the spotlight. Instead of punishing Wang Yan, the instructor even let him go so easily…

It was unfair!

As a result, the more he looked at Wang Yan, the more he disliked him.

But now was not the time to settle the score, so he could only hold it in.

During the rest of the session, Instructor Yan only corrected their movements repeatedly.

“It’s actually not difficult to exert force correctly. What’s difficult is to consistently exert force correctly so that the body can remember it.

“We don’t have enough time, so you must work harder. You either pass or be eliminated!

“In the next 30 minutes, we’ll dismantle the movements involved in the goose step and practice each of them! Ready… lift the right leg!

“Straighten your foot, straighten your leg!

“Steady your left arm! Good…

“Huh? Wang Yan, why are you shaking?!”

Instructor Yan was going back and forth to scrutinize the details for their movements and called Wang Yan out.

Wang Yan’s face turned pale when he heard that. He gritted his teeth and held on, but his body was shaking even more violently.

Staying up all night and being exposed to the scorching sun for an entire morning was too much on anybody.

Although he had grabbed two hours of sleep at noon, it was not enough.

From the moment he woke up, Wang Yan had felt dizzy. He had relied on his will power to do this high-intensity training.

Yan Chuan frowned. He was dissatisfied and regretful.

What a pity.

He had had high hopes for Wang Yan since the boy had a good figure and and courage. Who would have thought that the boy’s physical strength was so poor!

Shaking his head, he ignored Wang Yan and continued to shout commands.

“Okay, put the leg back on the ground and lift the other leg!”

After 30 minutes, Wang Yan was covered in sweat and his face was pale. He was actually the worst out of the eight people.

Although the others had sore muscles, at least they were not that weak.

When the instructor said “Rest on the spot for 10 minutes”, they sat down, kneading their legs and shoulders. Then, they turned their heads and saw Wang Yan lying on the lawn, panting heavily.

Xu Tianci’s eyes flashed with a hint of smugness, and he was secretly delighted.

Finally, I can do something better than you. You’re not that strong!

As for Gao Hu, he was more than smug. He looked at Wang Yan with disdain and joy.

“Bro, with your physical strength, you want to be a flag bearer? The moment you raise the flagpole, a strong wind will blow you away. Then the guys behind you will see a blur and wonder: Eh? Where’s the flag bearer?

“They’ll look around and find he has been swept into a girls’ phalanx and he is apologizing to the girls!”

Gao Hu’s sarcasm was insinuating Wang Yan’s apology to He Miaomiao. Several boys burst into laughter.

“Hahaha!”

“Brother Hu, you’re talented!”

“What the heck! I can see it in my mind… hahahaha!”

Wang Yan didn’t do anything, but Song Chen threw his hat down and stood up.
