On the day Zhang Jiale won his competition, Ran Ning treated their whole dorm to a huge meal. As his teammates wolfed down barbecue, they clapped Zhang Jiale on the shoulder:
"Seeing the happy ending you've married into, Lezi, puts Dad's mind at ease."
Zhang Jiale rolled his eyes and reminded them:
"The young lady has a boyfriend!"
Oh...
His teammates gave him sympathetic looks.
"Then why do you carry around the things she gives you?"
"Then why do you rush off to get her milk tea just because she calls?"
"So that's why you bought two cups. The other one was for her boyfriend, huh?"
...No, that cup was for her best friend.
Anyway, after whispering among themselves, everyone decided to stay loyal bros to the end and firmly clapped Zhang Jiale on the shoulder:
"It's okay, Lezi. You can do it!"
...Do what?
"The unloved one is the mistress!"
*I'm not planning to change the results of the competitions where he came second multiple times. In my opinion, that gave Zhang Jiale a very different kind of charm. But I will write about the national team winning the championship.
*The young lady is the real deal: beautiful, wealthy, with loving parents and a future so bright she can't sleep. She gets whatever she wants, and she's only ever the one who dumps people, never the one who gets dumped.
*Childhood sweethearts, a messy, on-again, off-again romance
*I'll add more if I think of anything
