Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 1020

Cheryl picked up another potato chip, took a bite, and then looked at the head coach. "Oh, okay."

Then, she saw the head coach pacing back and forth in front of her as he looked at her earnestly, looking like someone who wanted to ask her something yet didn't dare to.

"... Coach, is there something you want to ask me?" Cheryl asked.

The head coach coughed and said, "Um, I'm just asking about this casually. I am absolutely not insinuating anything, nor am I looking down on you! But, well, what kind of university do you think you can get into?"

After speaking, the head coach wanted to give himself a tight slap.

What was he even asking?

The teen obviously looked easily embarrassed. What if the young lady couldn't even get into a university at all? How was she going to answer him?

The head coach immediately tried to repair the situation. "No, what I mean to say is, it's okay even if it's just a specialist school. Er, it doesn't matter whether you go to university or not..."

"Yes, yes, that's right! I also think that academic qualifications aren't important in our industry!" Lionel had also seen the posts and comments on Facebook. He came over immediately to comfort her and said, "Look at me, I only attended a lousy second-rate university while these guys here went to even worse ones!"

The rest of the team also hurried over and comforted her.

"Exactly, so it's alright no matter how you score in the exams!"

"It's okay even if you don't attend university!"

"Haha, mutants like Captain Zac are a rarity in our industry. Nobody can ace their exams while being an expert gamer too, right?"

"We compete with our abilities, not academic qualifications!"

While they were talking, Cheryl sensed that something was amiss.

The smart girl blinked a couple of times and then opened up Facebook, where she saw that someone had at-mentioned Club HS.

As she stared at her cell phone, her big eyes widened in disbelief.

Upon seeing this, the head coach next to her became even more distressed. "D-don't cry, Cheryl... Everything will be fine, they are just jealous that you're pretty!"

"Yeah, you're so much prettier than that live-streamer lady, so she could only try to make up for the difference with her academics..."

"Ignore them. They're just trying to embarrass you!"

"Their fans all seem to feel some kind of sense of superiority to others online. Ha, it's not like having good grades will let them win the championship, right?"

As everyone comforted her, they saw her look up.

On her flawless little face, they didn't see any sadness in her eyes but faint... excitement instead?

The head coach felt like his eyes must be playing tricks on him. He was about to speak when Cheryl said docilely, "Coach, can I reply to the message?"

The head coach:"?"

The teen spoke so innocently that he couldn't even make himself say no!

The corners of his lips spasmed as he considered the proposal for a moment. Then, he replied, "Alright, go ahead, but don't argue with them. People online are just being led on by others... Don't cry, either, nor do you have to feel like you've let the fans down just because your grades are poor... Oh, and don't use foul language. We'll deduct $30 per swear word you use."

"Okay!"

Cheryl opened up her Facebook settings and changed her name to Cherry HS.

She knew that the club didn't want her to reveal her identity yet, so she didn't change it to "C". After the change, the head coach made a welcome post on the club's official Facebook page: 'Welcome to the club, ©Cherry HS.'

With that, everyone now knew that Cherry HS was the new member of Club HS.

After that, Cheryl lowered her head and started typing a message.

The head coach watched her from a distance away and shook his head slightly.

Lionel was a little worried. "Coach, aren't you concerned

that she may use abusive language or argue with them?"

The head coach replied, "She has promised me that she wouldn't. Besides, she's so innocent. Do you think she would argue with them?"

Lionel nodded after hearing this. He certainly didn't dare to even speak a little loudly to Cheryl. The girl looked so delicate that it was as if she would shatter like porcelain if he spoke even a little louder than usual.

The two of them thought that even if the girl panicked for real and argued a bit with the people online, she would probably just say something like "If you continue insulting me, I'll beat you up with my little fists".

There was no firepower whatsoever.

In fact, Lionel couldn't help but suggest, "Coach, should I help her hurl a couple of insults?"
