Chapter 117 Xiao Min
CUBA's grassroots competition consists of 5 rounds.
The winner gets 2 points and the loser gets 1 point.
After 5 rounds, the top eight will be determined.
The top eight teams compete for the Magic City Championship.
As the champion of the municipality and Magic City, you can join the Southeast Division of CUBA and compete with teams from other provinces in the divisional competition, and finally the top 24 national championships.
It can be said that Fuhua is still far away.
But it didn't stop them from feeling happy about getting a good start in the grassroots competition.
"That number 0 of yours is too strong to be reasonable."
This was the answer given by the center who greeted Qian Wenke.
In this game, he actually performed well, scoring 10 points in the first quarter alone.
Unfortunately, starting from the second quarter, for some reason, he felt that this game was very uncomfortable for him.
In the end, I only gave an answer sheet of 19 points.
Qian Wenke, who was in an equally good mood, shrugged:
"He's only a freshman."
Then he burst out laughing in the other party's speechless eyes.
Coach Wang is also very happy, but the middle-aged man is more reserved after all.
After the game, after symbolically saying something like "well played, take a good rest", he waved his hand to dismiss the team.
The volleyball team is still waiting.
"Let's go, let's go have dinner!"
Qian Wenke said directly.
The team members responded one after another, while Lu Yao looked at the auditorium that had almost left.
My girlfriend has disappeared.
He took out his mobile phone from his bag:
"The team needs to eat. Are you leaving?"
"Ah?...Okay then. Then you eat, we are leaving. Baby, you are awesome! So handsome! MVP! MVP!"
Hu Li's reply seemed very considerate.
After putting down the phone, she said to Xu Ruochu:
"Their team needs to eat, let's go?"
"Yeah."
Xu Ruochu nodded.
As she walked towards the door, Hu Li thought for a moment and took out her phone.
"Dudu... Dudu... Hello?"
A female voice appeared among the bursts of extremely noisy music.
"Xiaowei, where are you?"
Hu Li asked.
"Ah? I can't hear you clearly. Wait..."
Soon, the noisy music became quieter, and the female voice sounded again:
"Sister Li, what's wrong?"
"Where are you?"
"New York! At a bar with friends."
"...You're not in Los Angeles?"
"No, I came to New York for fun. Do you have anything to do with me?"
"Yes."
"Then... you can say it."
"You help me buy some protective gear worn by NBA players, covering my whole body. I will send you the model number later, and you quickly buy it for me, and then have someone send it to the Magic City for me."
"Huh?"
There was some doubtful sound over there.
"...NBA? Play basketball?"
"Yes. I want a full set of protective gear, including knee pads, arm pads, and wrist pads!"
"Uh..."
There seemed to be some confusion there.
But I agreed immediately:
"Okay, I know."
"Remember to ask for a men's one. This is the NBA, not the WNBA."
"I know it's a man...Sister Li, who do you want to buy it for?"
"...Don't worry about it, buy it quickly and have it delivered to me directly. I can't wait for the mail, okay?"
"Oh, okay, I know."
"Well, keep this in mind and don't tell me you forgot it when I ask you for it. Do you understand?"
"Yeah, okay, I remember."
"Hang up."
Toot.
He hung up the phone resolutely, and when Hu Li was wondering if he had anything to add, he heard Xu Ruochu say:
"Sui Wei?"
"Yes."
"She went to the United States? Will she come back?"
"Who knows."
Hu Li shrugged indifferently.
Apparently it's become commonplace.
Seeing this, Xu Ruochu thought for a while and said again:
"If she asks you again, just say you bought it for Xiaochen."
"Hehe, okay~"
Hu Li seemed very happy, holding Xu Ruochu's arm:
"It's better that our junior high school students know how to protect me~"
"..."
Xu Ruochu reluctantly took out his arm:
"Why do you like to act like a spoiled child so much after you are with Lu Yao?"
"Hehe~"
Hu Li just smiled but didn't answer.
She wouldn't tell the other person how safe her boyfriend's arms were.
But he immediately remembered something and said quickly:
"Oh yes, I have to ask Lu Yao for the size. Send me Xiaochen's too."
"No need to ask, I have it... I also have Lu Yao's."
"Huh? Do you have his?"
"...Hmm."
Xu Ruochu nodded again, with a calm expression on his face:
"I took him to make clothes before. But...he doesn't seem to have picked them up yet."
Hu Li didn't think much and nodded:
"Then send me... Hey, he looks so handsome when playing!! Especially... when he high-fives Xiaochen, he feels like a slam dunk master!!!"
"..."
The cold-faced elder sister turned to look at her infatuated elder sister.
Silent.
But...you have to admit it.
really.
Very youthful.
……
"Haha, old road, come and see!"
When Lu Yao and Mr. Xu came back, Yu Kun quickly asked them to look at his computer.
Lu Yao approached with some confusion and saw a post on the school forum: "Who knows the contact information of basketball team No. 0?" 》
"Please contact me and specific information. He's so handsome! If you know, please send it to me, thank you!"
The corner of his mouth twitched.
"Haha."
Mr. Xu was happy and scrolled down with the mouse to leave a message:
"The name registered in the school information is Lu Yao, freshman."
"Lu Yao, a freshman in our electronics department. The top scorer in this year's college entrance examination! He is a god."
"He is the number one scholar?...The one upstairs, why do you say he is a god?"
"I don't know the phone number, but he is a freshman, his name is Lu Yao, he plays the ball very well, he plays on the court every night, and you can see him often."
"The reason why I call him Immortal is because I have seen him once in the classroom since the beginning of school."
"You started skipping classes as a freshman? Are you so brave?"
"I saw him in the library."
"I remember him. During military training, he told us in the cafeteria the advantages of the electronics department and industry trends. He understood it quite well."
"Does anyone have his contact information?"
"? What's going on? Did something happen?"
"Upstairs, the basketball team defeated Shanghai Normal University in the afternoon. This Lu Yao, everyone in the audience is shouting MVP."
"A pretty girl shouted first. I was sitting next to her. She and the person next to her seemed to be together. They were both pretty. Did anyone see it? Do you have the contact information of those two beauties?"
"Does our school have a basketball team?"
"If you don't understand, just ask, is the Normal University strong? What level is it?"
After Mr. Xu browsed the post, he said somewhat funny:
"Don't exchange our contact information for that of a beautiful woman, do you hear me?"
"Who replaced yours?"
Yu Kun curled his lips disdainfully:
"I'll just take the old one."
"Haha, then Lu Yao, just wish yourself well."
Mr. Xu's teasing earned Lu Yao a roll of his eyes.
Walking to the computer, he also opened the school forum and took a look.
I found that there were indeed a small number of topics discussing the afternoon basketball game. But the number of posts is not that many.
Some people think that Fuhua’s school team is playing well, while others think that the level of both teams is average, and they feel that there is little hope for the top 24.
There are also those who understand the advantages and disadvantages of tactics.
Some people even say that he is a bit unique in playing.
Various.
He exited the forum and opened the software.
Behind him, the sound of guitar sounded.
Lu Yao suddenly remembered something, and quickly reached out and turned over the "Do Not Disturb" sign that was covered with tape on the ladder.
Mr. Lu turned over the sign, don’t bother me when the King of Heaven comes.
……
Soon, Friday comes.
That's the only good thing about university. Even though the Golden Week has just passed, there is no such thing as a leave of absence.
When it’s time to take a holiday, take it as usual.
But this time, Lu Yao wasn't going anywhere.
Go home honestly with your clothes.
No matter how much his girlfriend's seductive temptress nags, he remains as unmoved as a dead tree.
Why are you provoking me when you visit relatives these days?
What's more, you come to my house for dinner in the evening.
Just as he got off the bus stop and walked towards the community, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A familiar car came into view.
Black BMW X6.
Xu Ruochu's car.
"?"
With some doubts, he walked towards Jiexin Dry Cleaning Shop.
As soon as he entered the dry cleaning store, he saw three small mountains piled on the counter.
Aunt Li inside the counter was counting items one by one, while outside the counter stood an urban girl who could not be called a beauty.
The reason why she can't be called a beauty is because her appearance is not outstanding.
But the style is very professional.
Seeing the guests coming, she and Aunt Li looked over at the same time.
"Eh? Lu Yao, just right. Xiao Min, that's Lu Yao. Lu Yao, this is Mr. Xu's assistant Xiao Min. I'm here to deliver clothes today." "Well..."
Lu Yao nodded subconsciously and said to Xiao Min, who was staring at him in disbelief:
"Hello, Assistant Xiao. I'm Lu Yao."
"...???"
Xiao Min looked confused.
This person... is Senior Lu who seems to be a little resentful every time the boss mentions him?
She is actually not unfamiliar with the name "Lu Yao".
In fact, the name "Lu Yao" was the one that Mr. Xu talked about most often in her early days of employment.
"Lu Yao's approach to this matter is XXX. You can just follow his approach."
"Lu Yao knows XXX. I think it's good. Just do it. No other ideas are needed."
In all kinds of habits in Mr. Xu's daily life, she would always hear such words when she first took over.
Even when Mr. Xu was drunk, when she took Mr. Xu home, the half-asleep Mr. Xu would say:
"Lu Yao, where are we?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
This senior is like a shadow, running through her assistant career which is not long yet.
But... for some reason, every time she tried to ask for some information about Senior Lu, Mr. Xu's answer would be polite... with a tone of resentment or a bad mood.
To this day she doesn't know what happened between the two of them.
When I even asked other people in the company, the only information they knew was that they had met the road assistant when they were applying for the job.
The rest didn't make any impression.
But... Mr. Xu and Mr. Hu in the company often put this name on their lips.
so.
"Who is Lu Yao?" has almost become an unsolved mystery.
Moreover, after arriving at this laundry that had nothing to do with the carts of brand-name clothes she brought here, she would also try to find out about Senior Lu.
Because Mr. Xu said:
"Just send my clothes to this dry cleaning shop. When you go there, tell the boss that Lu Yao recommended you."
Unfortunately, Aunt Li was also very tight-lipped and could not find out any information at all.
Apparently they already knew that Senior Lu had resigned.
And at this moment, the "mysterious" Senior Lu was actually standing in front of him?
Or a...handsome guy? !
She was a little sluggish.
But he immediately reacted, stretched out his hand and said politely:
"Hello, Senior Lu, I am Xiao Min."
"Well, I heard Sister Chu talking about you."
First sister...?
Xiao Min's mouth twitched.
Are you calling Mr. Xu so affectionate?
Then... Mr. Xu is not in a good mood every time he mentions you?
What happened to you two?
She became more and more curious.
And Lu Yao didn't know what she was thinking, so he just asked:
"Is this autumn clothing?"
"Yes."
This time it was Aunt Li who answered him:
"Just arrived."
Lu Yao nodded.
These clothes are all brand new, and the tags have not been removed. The answer is obvious.
But...isn't it a bit too much?
For Xu Ruochu, who "only wears it once", there is nothing wrong with selling 99% new beauty for her own use when she is afraid of selling it second-hand.
"Where is Zhang Siyuan?"
"I don't know, I'm at school. I came back from vacation two days ago and I came to see you. Have you called me?"
"Hit, I'm training at school."
"I know, he told me that you made the school team. Just call him and ask him to come back. You two haven't seen each other since the beginning of the school year, right?"
"Yeah, okay."
Lu Yao agreed.
"Lu...Senior Lu is still in school?"
Xiao Min was a little confused.
Looking at her expression and questions, Lu Yao thought to herself that Sister Chu didn't seem to have told her.
So he nodded:
"Well, I'm studying in Fuhua."
Now, Xiao Min probably understood.
Senior Lu... he probably resigned for the sake of his studies, right?
After all, from an objective point of view, Mr. Xu’s work is quite intense and he is busy almost every day. And this kind of pace of life is obviously not a "good thing" for people who still have academic pursuits.
And Senior Lu’s working ability is so strong, but Mr. Xu didn’t keep him, so it’s natural to feel a little resentful.
But...she felt a little unwilling to admit defeat.
Although I don't have a bad feeling towards Lu Yao, this face is quite likable after all.
However, she hopes that when she leaves her job with better plans in the future, her next successor will hear the words "Xiao Min will do this, and you can do the same."
At this time, the phone rang.
Lu Yao took it out and took a look, then connected directly.
"Hello."
"I'm almost there."
"So fast?"
"Hehe, I miss you. Are you home yet?"
"..."
Lu Yao thought for a while and said:
"I'm at the gate of the community. You can see me when you come."
"OK."
Hu Li quickly hung up the phone.
Lu Yao said:
"Auntie, I'm leaving. Assistant Xiao, see you later."
"Well, go ahead. Xiao Xiao, I can do this myself. It will take about a week to wash them all. Come and get them."
"Uh...Okay."
Xiao Min nodded. Seeing that Lu Yao was leaving, he thought about it and said goodbye.
The two of them walked to the door, and Lu Yao said:
"Then I'm leaving too."
"Senior Lu, can we leave a phone number? Is that okay?"
"Well, okay."
After the two quickly exchanged contact information, Lu Yao didn't chat much with her, waved his hand and left.
Xiao Min said goodbye politely, and after Lu Yao walked a certain distance, he went straight to the BMW.
After getting into the car, she started the car and turned right to merge.
At this time, she noticed the car coming from behind, so she didn't move, but waited for the MINI... huh?
Suddenly, she noticed something was wrong, and her eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the MINI that had already driven ahead.
Isn't this car's license plate... Mr. Hu's?
She was confused.
I followed him subconsciously.
Then I saw the MINI turning left and turning directly into this community.
Then...
Stopped at Senior Lu.
Although she saw it, the car had already passed by.
Subconsciously, she slowed down the car, turned around and saw...Senior Lu getting into Mr. Hu's car.
"????"
What's going on?
Isn't this Senior Lu's home?
What is Mr. Hu doing here?
She was confused.
……
Seeing that their son had brought Hu Li back, Lu Yuanshan and Chen Aihua were not very surprised.
Even a little happy.
Although they did not have any thoughts of "making money" in their hearts, as their son went to school, the couple's thoughts gradually began to change.
At first, Chen Aihua was afraid that his son would be led astray.
After all...not to mention her son, not even her and her husband understand the world of the rich.
But inexplicably, after my son entered college, he began to lose his childishness and became more "manly".
Not only did she think so, Lu Yuanshan also felt so.
Both of them felt that their son had grown up.
When they were in high school, the couple wanted their son to get into a good school.
Now, the wish has been fulfilled.
People, that's how it works sometimes.
Thoughts are different at every stage of life.
When I was in high school, I hoped that my son would get into a good school and not have to worry about his future.
Now that the goal was achieved, the two naturally began to look forward to the future.
First of all, there is a wedding room.
What's left is the future.
But at this moment... Hu Li appeared.
Her son calls her "Sister Li", and she is very affectionate towards him.
She looks like a caring sister.
Moreover, after having a drink, both the couple could feel that this rich man... did not have that domineering temperament.
If there were, people wouldn't look down on Lao Lu's family, let alone sit down and have a drink together.
On the contrary, this girl is polite, considerate and very likeable.
Moreover, from their perspective, they are children from a decent family, different from the rich but bad people on TV.
As a result, the two naturally began to make plans for their son's future.
Regardless of whether it's useful or not, at least... my son also got to know the noble man.
If there are any difficulties in the future, he will probably help his son.
The difficulties for ordinary people may be easily overcome.
Therefore, when she learned that Hu Li was coming for dinner, Ms. Chen specially bought some dishes that she liked very much last time.
And Hu Li didn't come empty-handed this time.
In her left hand, she held two bottles of Maotai.
A very ordinary kind, not an old wine.
But as a "family banquet" wine, it is definitely enough. There is no psychological burden when drinking it.
On the right hand is a large gift box.
La Mer's celebrity healing series gift box.
It's not expensive either, less than eight thousand.
She clearly knows her way around gift giving.
It can't be too expensive, because Lu Yao said that all the clothes he bought for him were given to Uncle Lu. And Uncle Lu is usually reluctant to wear them.
Therefore, she can certainly afford the more expensive ones, but if they don't reflect her feelings, there's no need.
Two bottles of Maotai and a set of cosmetics.
This is just right.
When the weather gets colder, she will give away coats, scarves, and leather jackets for men.
There is only one goal, which is to reach the hearts of two people.
Lu Yao opened the combination lock and opened the door, and Hu Li immediately smelled the aroma of food.
Looking at Lu Yuanshan who stood up to greet her, she smiled and said:
"Uncle Lu, let's drink this today!...Aunt Chen, I brought you the repairing and anti-aging cosmetics I mentioned last time."
She smiled like a flower.
Lu Yao followed behind, the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously.
Especially after seeing the joy on the faces of the parents who greeted me.
Although... I haven’t mentioned the future yet.
But at least her parents like her.
He was relieved.
It was a happy meal, but of course the driver didn't have to take the leader back in the end.
Just at early ten o'clock, the driver suddenly called my mother, which meant that he was going back to school directly and there would be training tomorrow morning.
Ms. Chen, who knew her son had joined the school team, agreed without thinking too much.
And when it came to training on Saturday morning, Mr. Xu looked at Lu Yao who had become a soft-footed shrimp again, and sneered from the bottom of his heart:
"Tsk, useless thing."
