No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!-Chapter 1702 Arnold Simmons Extra (68)
After the speech ended, a thunderous applause immediately erupted below.
At the very end of the line, Jimmy Simmons could only see a blurry figure on the stage. Thinking of something, he curved his lips into a smirk and chuckled.
The freshmen and sophomores’ basketball game started this afternoon, and almost everyone from both grades went to the basketball court to cheer and show their support, even the seniors joined the excitement.
To catch this game, Tessa Thompson insisted on having dinner with Hannah at school.
"Eat faster, and we might snag a good spot."
That’s what she said, but by the time they arrived, the gymnasium was already packed with people, not just in the stands, but also standing all around the court.
There were even banners specifically made by classes, and the cheering voices were almost enough to flip the gymnasium’s ceiling.
Tessa Thompson covered her ears and bounced around outside the crowd, but all she could see was the basketball hoop.
The gymnasium was so noisy that Hannah had to raise her voice, "Otherwise, let’s go watch from outside." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Her voice had barely fallen before it was drowned by a wave-like cheer.
Tessa Thompson, covering one ear, leaned close to Hannah and asked her, "What did you say!"
Hannah had no choice but to repeat, "Let’s go watch from outside!"
There are many basketball courts in the school, two inside the gymnasium and others beside the track and field stadium. Due to the large number of freshmen and sophomore classes, all the courts were used for this competition.
Before entering the gymnasium, they thought there were too many people outside, but it was only after entering that they realized what truly meant to be crowded.
After leaving the gymnasium, it felt like half of the clamor was blocked out.
Tessa Thompson patted her ears, "Too noisy, really too noisy. Indeed, the juniors have the energy, I even thought for a moment that going back to the classroom to do homework wouldn’t be so bad."
Hannah teased her, "So should we go back to the classroom and do homework now?"
Tessa Thompson shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, studying is important, but it’s also necessary to relax at the right time."
Perhaps because of the open space outside the courts, the crowd didn’t seem as packed, and with a little effort, it was still possible to squeeze to the front.
Hannah wasn’t very interested in the basketball game, but she couldn’t withstand Tessa Thompson’s enthusiasm. No matter who scored, she cheered and clapped, and if it weren’t for the senior class uniform they were wearing, they might have been mistaken for troublemakers.
On the basketball court, the game was reaching a critical moment in the first half, with players from both sides closely guarding the opposing team’s key players.
After watching for a while, Tessa Thompson suddenly recognized someone on the center court, "Isn’t that Jimmy Simmons?"
She didn’t know many freshmen, and Jimmy Simmons was one of the few.
After all, the notable figures from each grade often stand out.
Someone like Arnold Simmons, rebellious yet low-key, was an exception.
Hannah looked in the direction Tessa Thompson was pointing.
On the basketball court, Jimmy Simmons was wearing a fiery red basketball uniform, dribbling the ball while still managing to instruct his teammates on their positioning and reminding them of the opponent’s weaknesses.
The screams of girls from the sidelines seemed to focus solely on him.
Undeniably, Jimmy Simmons’s face truly stood out in the crowd, especially wearing his red basketball uniform, which made him look even more flamboyant and passionate.
Today’s game was almost entirely his moment in the limelight, with most of the chants below being his name.
Tessa Thompson was shocked, "Is Jimmy Simmons that popular?"
