“She’s not my girlfriend. Bai Lei, don’t spout nonsense!” Zheng Han had a strong reaction.

He raised his head and looked at the stands where only two people were left. Doubt rose in his heart. He said to the people around him, “I’ll go up and ask about the situation.”

Then, he left the stadium and went to the stands to ask Yun Jin.

“Why are you and Uncle Li Here? Where are the girls?”

Yun Jin said, “They went to the department store to buy clothes. I wasn’t interested, so I didn’t go.”

“Why not? Isn’t shopping for new clothes your favorite? Are you worried that no one will help you carry your things?”

Zheng Han said thoughtlessly.

He didn’t consider whether Yun Jin liked hanging out with them or not.

Yun Jin raised her eyebrows. “I’m just not interested. By the way, Uncle Li is sending me back. He’ll come back to pick you up later.”

“Ah, you’re leaving now. Aren’t you going to watch…”Zheng Han was a little disappointed and his emotions were revealed.

“I just scored three goals. Don’t tell me you didn’t see any of them?”

As he bragged, he felt aggrieved. At the same time, he realized that something was wrong with him.

Why did he care if Yun Jin saw his goals? !

Zheng Han was still struggling in his heart when Yun Jin’s words interrupted his thoughts.

“I saw it. I didn’t expect you to be so good at playing as a striker.”

“You actually understood it. Then why did you leave!”

Zheng Han was very happy when he heard Yun Jin praise him. He immediately asked a new question.

Yun Jin told him the truth. “Among those girls, there’s a girl named Lu Cai who insisted that I go shopping with them.”

“She refused and didn’t listen. She kept pestering me. There was nothing I could do. Uncle Li came forward and told her that Grandpa Zheng wanted me to go back early, so I had to deal with her perfunctorily.”

Zheng Han touched his chin, deep in thought. His hair and face were covered in sweat, and he was wearing a jersey. When he did this, the sweat dripped onto his hands.

“Bai Lei’s girlfriend… Isn’t her sister Lu Jie from our class? No wonder she pestered you. She must have misunderstood our relationship.”

“I have to hand it to these people…”

“Why do you think that I have to respond to Lu Jie if she likes me? You even have to take the initiative to confess to her. I’m not in the mood to date. Even if I do, it’s definitely not with her,” he said fiercely. He was quite displeased.

Yun Jin was not interested in understanding these love and hate entanglements. She shrugged, put her bag on her back, glanced at Uncle Li, and prepared to leave.

Zheng Han hurriedly stopped her. “Don’t leave. Why are you bothering with her? Why is she so easy to bully?”

“Just sit here and continue watching me play. Later, if she bothers you again, come and find me. At worst, I’ll have a fight with Bai Lei. It’s not like I haven’t fought with him since I was young.”

Yun Jin looked at him suspiciously.

Zheng Han’s face turned red and he said stiffly, “Don’t misunderstand. I want you to stay and watch me… No, watch everyone play because I think you can understand. Since you can understand, why do you have to leave? Don’t you agree?”

As he spoke, he gave Uncle Li a meaningful look.

Uncle Li understood and quickly agreed. He was delighted at this scene. This was great. ‘Third Young Master must have been moved.’

“Miss Yun Jin, why don’t you stay and continue watching?”

“When they ask later, I’ll say that I’ve already called the Zheng family. The family has agreed that the two of you will be home late.”

“Actually, when I first arrived at the stadium, I already called the family. Old Master knew that you were here to watch you play soccer, so he had already agreed.”

Yun Jin felt that Uncle Li’s words were a little strange, but he did not think too much about it. He nodded and sat down. He even encouraged Zheng Han a little.

“Go for it. Keep up your form just now. I feel that your team will definitely win.”

“Of course,”Zheng Han said confidently.

Then, he jogged to the field.

On the way, he rubbed his hair and smoothed out the messy hairstyle caused by sweat. His mood was mixed, half happy and half sad.

He was happy with Yun Jin’s praise and sad about Uncle Li’s words just now. His grandfather must have misunderstood again.

Eh, forget it. As long as he praised Big Brother and his second brother during this period of time and told Yun Jin how good they were and how they were countless times better than him, he would definitely be able to escape this disaster.

Zheng Han had yet to react. His impression of Yun Jin was getting deeper and deeper. He would already have strong psychological fluctuations because of one or two sentences from her.

“Hey, Hey, stop talking. Zheng Han is back.”

When the people in the stadium saw Zheng Han return, they stopped discussing.

They were guessing the relationship between Zheng Han and Yun Jin just now.

Some people thought that they were a couple, while others thought that they would become a couple sooner or later.

Only a few people thought that Zheng Han looked down on Yun Jin and at most played with her.

However, because their opinions were in the minority, they did not dare to voice it out. They were afraid that if they exposed the “Truth”, they would be ostracized.

Zheng Han entered the field and explained the situation in two or three sentences. The game continued.

His condition was still warmed up. After receiving a good pass from Bai Lei, he picked up the ball and passed two defenders in a row. He knocked down one of them and scored another goal cleanly, bringing the score to 5:3.

Zheng Han smiled. He was about to celebrate with his teammates when he saw that the guard on the opposite team, who had just been knocked down by him, did not get up.

The goalkeeper who had been scored had a sullen expression on his face.. He shouted, “He hit his head on the Goalpost!”
