C75 He Was Jealous of Lin Dong so He Started to Target Him on the Field
"So many gorgeous women! Did Tian Chao bring all these ladies?"
The team leader of Tian Chao's group couldn't contain his amazement.
He had been completely captivated a moment ago.
Since their team's inception, they hadn't exactly been a magnet for female attention.
Mostly because the team consisted of average guys from ordinary backgrounds, with looks to match—rugged and unremarkable.
They could play soccer well, but when it came to looks, they were outshined.
It was a big deal if even a few girls took an interest in their team and showed up to the games.
And those girls were cherished by the players like rare treasures.
The girl Tian Chao had mentioned he'd introduce to Lin Dong was one of these rare finds.
In comparison to the women flocking around Lin Dong, these few seemed like dim matches next to a brilliant starry sky—simply no contest.
Tian Chao wore a look of pride as he boasted, "Of course, my brother Lin Dong is a real looker. He can easily draw a crowd of beauties! Just look, any girl he brings out could outshine a whole group of them!"
His words found agreement with the team leader, who nodded earnestly.
The rest of the players were elated.
Now, it was Jiang Cheng's members who looked sullen.
They had been spellbound when Tian Meihui and Ma Chenchen made their entrance.
Ma Chenchen was usually understated, rarely making a showy appearance, a hidden gem among beauties.
Tian Meihui, on the other hand, was a firecracker! She was well-known in social circles, and nearly every guy knew her.
Despite her popularity and fun-loving ways, Tian Meihui had never had a boyfriend and remained single.
The line of guys wanting to date her could wrap around Jiangyang University!
Yet, she always laughed it off and never seriously entertained any of their advances, much less showed up with a girl in tow to cheer on a guy.
Girls always cared a lot about appearances!
But now, they had all shown up.
Jiang Cheng was among the many who admired Tian Meihui.
An athlete himself, he preferred girlfriends who were energetic and fun-loving.
Tian Meihui was vivacious yet grounded, exactly his idea of the perfect girlfriend.
At that moment, Tian Meihui was seated next to Lin Dong in the stands.
Jiang Cheng had overheard Tian Chao's earlier remarks.
He was aware that Tian Meihui had come to the event today solely because of Lin Dong, and this level of dedication stirred envy within Jiang Cheng.
Lin Dong was undeniably handsome, albeit slender.
How could someone like him capture Tian Meihui's attention?
It was maddening!
Jiang Cheng was convinced that Tian Meihui belonged with him instead.
Amidst his jealousy, Lin Dong turned to Tian Meihui and asked, "Why did you bring so many girls along?"
With a cheeky grin, Tian Meihui replied, "You mentioned wanting to support your roommates, and I thought the more the merrier, so I invited them!"
Lin Dong chuckled, genuinely moved by her gesture.
He admired Tian Meihui's straightforward nature and, as he got to know her better, he found her to be a genuinely nice person.
Looking at her earnestly, Lin Dong expressed his gratitude, "Thank you."
Tian Meihui quickly dismissed the thanks with a wave, saying earnestly, "No need to thank me, I'm happy to do this for you!"
She was determined to win Lin Dong over.
After all, Lin Dong was the guy who drove a Pajini Wind God sports car and was incredibly handsome; not holding onto a boyfriend like that would be foolish!
Ma Chenchen cleared her throat and interjected, "Lin Dong, I brought a friend too. How about a thank you for me?"
Without hesitation, Lin Dong responded, "Thank you."
Tian Meihui glanced at Ma Chenchen and said with a laugh, "Wow, Chenchen, you never liked to wear makeup before. You only did it when I pleaded with you for parties. I'm surprised to see you all dolled up today!"
Ma Chenchen's face showed a hint of discomfort.
She replied, "I was in a good mood today and thought I'd bring my friends to watch the game and unwind."
Tian Meihui, with a playful twinkle in her eye, teased, "That's great, as long as you don't compete with me for Lin Dong's attention!"
Ma Chenchen pressed her lips together, ready to respond.
But Lin Dong gestured for peace, saying, "Let's settle down now. It's great to have such wonderful company. I'm really happy. Let's focus on the game for now!"
Tian Meihui clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Great! Brother Lin Dong, I've brought water for you. Just let me know when you're thirsty, okay?"
Lin Dong nodded in acknowledgment.
Liu Wenming and Zhou Hengyu let out a light sigh.
They had been sitting next to Lin Dong, but they were quickly displaced when a group of girls arrived.
Now, relegated to the fringes of the female crowd, they watched with envy as Lin Dong was encircled at the center.
They too wished to be surrounded by such adoration.
But what could they do? Lin Dong was irresistibly handsome, and they simply couldn't compete.
On the field, the game between Jiang Cheng and Tian Chao's teams kicked off!
Lin Dong, accompanied by Tian Meihui and Ma Chenchen, led the other girls in boisterous cheers.
The boys, who had been disinterested spectators, were now swept up by the girls' enthusiasm, their cheers growing louder and more fervent with each passing moment.
The stadium was buzzing with excitement.
Meanwhile, on Jiang Cheng's side, the once-enthusiastic girls quieted down considerably upon seeing the arrival of high-caliber girls like Tian Meihui and Ma Chenchen.
Tian Meihui's group epitomized sophistication.
In terms of both poise and makeup, they far outshone Jiang Cheng's female fans.
The rivalry among the girls was all about cosmetics and style.
The girls around Lin Dong effortlessly overshadowed the other side's fans, instilling a sense of inferiority that squashed any notion of competition.
In the realm of fan support, Lin Dong's entourage was undeniably dominant!
"Tweet!"
The teacher serving as the referee blew the whistle, signaling the start of the game.
Tian Chao immediately took control of the ball, launching a fierce offensive.
Their spirits, previously dampened, now soared.
With so many beautiful women spectating, an occurrence unheard of in their competitive careers, they were determined to put on a performance worthy of the ladies' fervent support.
Whoosh~
Tian Chao dashed past Jiang Cheng with the ball, trailing a pungent scent of sweat.
Jiang Cheng's gaze turned icy.
He was a decent player, but today, Lin Dong had brought a legion of beauties, including Tian Meihui, the girl he fancied.
At that moment, I found it hard to focus and get into the zone.
Tian Chao, on the other hand, was in top form. Lin Dong's incredible support had helped him save face, and now he was determined to fight hard to live up to that support!
Like a whirlwind, Tian Chao weaved past several defenders, took the ball to the edge of the goal, and unleashed a powerful shot!
"Tweet!"
The referee blew the whistle – the White Team scored a point!
"We won!!"
Tian Chao was engulfed in a group hug by his teammates, his face flushed with excitement.
The White Team erupted in celebration.
The crowd in the stands was overjoyed as well.
Their cheers resonated throughout the stadium.
Lin Dong smiled broadly, sharing in the happiness.
Tian Meihui and Ma Chenchen sat on either side of Lin Dong, leading the other girls in a spirited cheer – the atmosphere was electric!
This moment became a highlight on the field!
Lin Dong was now the object of all the boys' envy.
Jiang Cheng watched the scene unfold in the stands, his face turning a shade of green with envy.
He was quite full of himself, believing his good looks and athletic physique would win over the girls, but instead, they flocked around Lin Dong, who seemed to charm them effortlessly.
Jiang Cheng couldn't stand it!
His resentment towards Lin Dong grew.
He redirected this animosity towards Tian Chao on the field!
Summoning his teammates with a wave, he cast a menacing glance at Tian Chao and muttered a few words.
At that moment, every player on his team fixed their gaze on Tian Chao, ready to target him for retribution!
Tian Chao remained blissfully unaware.
