Chapter 41: Provocation
Alfitt has a long and cumbersome surname, and his parents are black couples, born in the United States, the most powerful military hegemon at present. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a young man, he was proud of his country, and with the glorious past honors of Holy Cross High School, he was able to say to all the high school students in Nantai that you are all spicy chickens.
Absorbing a spicy chicken from a group of spicy chickens into the elite crowd, how could he possibly agree.
Yelena's initial proposal was that he was opposed, and the two argued for a long time. Eventually, Yelena, who erupted, dragged him out of his dormitory and carried him to the edge of the rooftop, saying that he would either say yes or jump from here.
Facing the fifteen-story building, he said in his heart that there is an old Chinese saying that a good man does not suffer immediate losses, and while he agreed, he also proposed to observe whether Chu Nanxiong was qualified to enter the Holy Cross, thus triggering this farce.
After observation, he recognized Chu Nanxiong's strength and status, after all, the strong know no borders.
But he also understands that the lion and the sheep can't get along well, and if he wants Chu Nanxiong to transfer to the Holy Cross, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Luckily, he was smart enough to have a backup plan, which was a friendly basketball game between schools.
There is competition between schools, like between countries. High schools with good studies will try to publicize the promotion rate as much as possible, and high schools with low promotion rates will try to promote their own sports.
Holy Cross is located at the apex of Nantai City, with a 90% admission rate, and trophies such as the national basketball championship and the football championship are specially opened up in a room. A strong physique and a superior mind are the mottos of their school.
Generally speaking, there are no schools willing to play a friendly match with the Holy Cross, it is purely sadistic. Nantai High School is different, this is a school with great ups and downs, and its strongest period, the admission rate is as high as 99%, and it once dominated the sports world.
In the weakest period, the admission rate was not even 10 percent, and all kinds of explosions were made.
Nantai's creed never refuses any challenge, even when it is the weakest, not to mention that the current Nantai belongs to the Zhongxing period.
Offitt arrives at the school gate in an extended version of the Bentley, reveals his identity to the security guards, and ignores the scrutinizing gazes of the many students, leading him to the student council building with a white face.
The student union building has five floors, the bottom four floors are club rooms, and the top floor is the student union office. There is an elevator leading directly to the president's room, and with a ding, the elevator doors open to both sides, revealing a clean and concise president's room.
A rectangular desk with stacks of papers and papers flanked by six single sofas around a glass table.
He met the current student president, Lin Bingbing, who is known as the workaholic flower.
Lin Bingbing has an ordinary appearance, a medium figure, and an intellectual temperament exudes from her whole body, which makes people feel good at first glance.
"Offitt-san, what's the matter with you?" Lin Bingbing has always been able to do things, and she will never use two sentences for things that can be said in one sentence.
Time is money, wasting time is a waste of money, and wasting money is something she can't allow.
Alfit is obviously happy with her straightforwardness, and smart people like to deal with straight white people because of the good pit.
The corners of Offet's mouth raised: "Beautiful Lin, Holy Cross and Nantai have been friends for twenty years, and in order to celebrate this day full of friendship, we sincerely invite you to a friendly basketball game. β
Lin Bingbing tapped his fingers on the table, looked at him with a calm gaze and said, "It's not just a friendly match, what else do you have for it?" β
Offett's heart tightened, and then he relaxed again, and said with a smile: "I heard that there are two students in your school, one is called Chu Nanxiong, and the other is a foreigner named Emily Romanoff. β
Asking for Emily was purely an accidental discovery when he browsed the Nantai website, and Emily, who was beautiful and all-powerful, undoubtedly met the admission criteria of the Holy Cross.
Lin Bingbing shook his head and said: "You can agree to a friendly match, as for the issue of bets, our student union has always paid attention to democracy, if the parties do not agree, I can't promise bets." β
Offie nodded and said, "You can call them and I'll convince them." β
The school's radio suddenly sounded: "Chu Nanxiong and Yi Mili, two classmates of Class C in the first year, please go to the student union building when you hear the announcement, the president has something to do with you." β
The radio not only echoed inside the school, but could be heard clearly outside, and it was spoken three times before stopping.
Emily was enjoying HΓ€agen-Dazs with Tang Tang and others at the Ice Cream House, and when she heard the announcement, she was surprised and immediately decided to set off.
Chu Nanxiong was sweating profusely from eating ramen, and he didn't hear anything on the radio. On the contrary, Ye Liang on the side was a little anxious: "Boss, you can wait to eat the ramen, the student president told you not to delay." β
Chu Nanxiong was unhappy: "Do you think Lao Tzu is afraid of that bullshit president?" β
Ye Liang hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, boss, you are wise and martial, invincible in the world, how can that bullshit president be comparable." β
Chu Nanxiong snorted coldly and continued to eat noodles. His thinking is very simple, since the president has something to find him, then he will come to the door and say it in person. He's not a puppy, so why does the other party want to run over with a word?
After eating the ramen, Chu Nanxiong returned to the classroom. At this point, the school radio urged him three more times, mentioning only his name, and it was clear that Emily had reached the student council president.
Chu Nanxiong didn't hear it, his demeanor was calm, and he looked through the Chinese textbook.
At about one o'clock, Emily burst into the classroom angrily, her blue eyes seemed to be burning, her fair face showed a fierceness, and she was followed by a black boy, who was very handsome but too dark.
The two came to the table, and Offet said politely: "Chu, Holy Cross is going to have a friendly basketball game with Nantai, if you lose, you and Emily will transfer to our school, and if we lose, we will erect the strongest stone monument of Nantai High School at the school gate." I don't know if you dare to bet? β
Knowing that Offet was using the agitation method, Chu Nanxiong still felt very angry, and he slapped the table and stood up: "Don't think that the agitation method is useful, if you want to compete, just let the horse come, but the bet must be changed, I won, you have to erect one at the door, we are all spicy chicken steles that are beyond our strength." β
Offet laughed: "Yes, the time is set for Sunday, October 16th." β
His smile annoyed Chu Nanxiong, as if he had won, a disgusting guy.
"If it's okay, you can get out," Chu Nanxiong waved his hand and gave the order to evict the guest.
Offitt smiled and walked away.
Ye Liang couldn't help but say, "Boss, do you know how to play basketball?" β
Chu Nanxiong raised his eyebrows and said: "Isn't basketball just a group of people grabbing the ball and slamming the dunk, I learned it in minutes." β
Emily subconsciously ridiculed: "Don't brag, playing basketball requires not only skills, but also cooperation, you better pray that the basketball team of Nantai High School is strong." β
Is the current Nantai High School basketball team strong?
The answer is that it is naturally strong, and last year's national championship was won by their Nantai High School, although the women's basketball team lost to the Holy Cross, but it was not that they were weak, but that the other party was too strong.
Emily learned about the fiasco of the Nantai women's basketball team from Lin Bingbing, and she was not discouraged, her basketball skills can be called the first in the country, and she is absolutely confident that she will lead the school's women's basketball team to defeat the women's basketball team of the Holy Cross.
After school that afternoon, Chu Nanxiong did not go home directly, but went with Lin Bingbing to visit the Nantai basketball team. The people who accompanied him included Emily, Tang Tang and other women, and naturally Ye Liang, the number one dogleg, was indispensable.
The basketball hall is located to the west of Nantai High School, surrounded by poplar trees, and the sun is shining overhead, making it extremely hot.
Before entering the basketball hall, Chu Nanxiong had already heard the sizzling sound of his sneakers rubbing against the floor and the sound of thumping dribbling, he raised his eyebrows and said, "President Lin, it's club practice time, right?" β
Lin Bingbing said in a soft voice: "Well, the basketball team usually practices after school, is there any problem?" β
Emily's face turned pale, and she interjected: "Of course there is, why is there only one person playing ball inside?" β
She reached out and pushed open the door, and the interior was spacious, with two basketball courts, apparently for men's and women's basketball practice.
And in such a spacious place, there is only one person practicing shooting, and that person is quite tall, estimated to be 1.83 meters. With a strong body and bulging muscles in his arms, he shot the basket gracefully and quickly, as if the ball was thrown as soon as it arrived, and the worst thing was that he threw it in.
Lin Bingbing frowned slightly, and an ominous guess appeared in his heart: "Wang Li, why are you alone?" Cheng Li: What about them? β
Wang Li turned around, he was handsome, his expression was indifferent, he didn't seem to like to laugh, and his voice also showed indifference: "In the second class in the afternoon, someone was willing to pay 10,000 yuan to make my stomach ache until next Monday to come back to the basketball team." β
The implication of his words is that those who did not come have already accepted the money and will not show up next Monday.
Liu Piaopiao was furious: "Why can't this kind of good thing be on my turn?" Uh, no, those guys are so cunning, damn it, I want it too. β
Lin Bingbing's face was as calm as water, and he took out his mobile phone to go out to make a call.
Emily's face is ugly, there is someone in the men's basketball team, and the women's basketball team has not shown up at all, does she want to be one-on-five?
Chu Nanxiong didn't realize how bad the situation was, he didn't know much about basketball, and said that it was no problem for him to play a hundred alone, let alone play for just four people.
He strode forward and said arrogantly: "Without those guys, I can still win those guys alone, hey, you can teach me to play basketball quickly." β
Wang Li was displeased: "For a guy like you who doesn't understand what basketball is, I have nothing to teach." β
Chu Nanxiong's face turned cold: "Then how about a competition?" β
"Yes, let you know the vastness of the basketball world," Wang Li said lightly, turned around and picked up the basketball under the basketball hoop, pointed to the basketball frame opposite, and said, "One ball determines the winner." β
Chu Nanxiong smiled: "Yes." β
