Chapter 287 Zhu Sheng took the opportunity to sneak away
April 25, Saturday morning.
The exciting basketball semi-finals are about to begin.
At 8:30 in the morning, there was a competition between Class 1 and Class 12.
However, if students from other classes are interested, they can also go downstairs to watch the game.
The competition of Class 8 was at ten o'clock in the morning, but Li Luo and others still came downstairs early, intending to see the strength of Class 1 and Class 12 and observe the final opponents in advance.
At the semi-final level, the basketball teams of the four classes are all quite strong, and their confrontational nature is even more interesting.
On the first team, there are two attackers, Liu Shaowen and Xie Shuchen. The offensive rhythm is very good and the cooperation is also tacit.
Paired with Jian Zhenyuan in the inner circle, a solid triangle was formed, and both offense and defense were well done.
Once the offense is difficult, Liao Hailin, a defender, will always appear suddenly in some unexpected places, making sudden moves that make it difficult to guard against.
As for Class 12, the five people were relatively evenly matched in strength, but they worked well together and were able to withstand it, and the scores were tight.
Unfortunately, they were defeated by Class 1 in the end, losing by six points 58-52.
This time, many students from Class 1 came downstairs to watch the game. After seeing that their team won, there was a burst of applause and cheers outside the stadium.
After seeing Ying Chanxi also applauding, Liu Shaowen and Xie Shuchen wiped the sweat from their faces. They felt that this hour of hard work was still very meaningful, and they both showed happy smiles on their faces.
"I feel like the first class is a bit fierce." Zhu Yufei said, rubbing his head on the sidelines, "It's quite comprehensive, there are no shortcomings, and it's not easy to target."
"It doesn't matter, anyway. You can't even touch the first class." Lu Wei's voice came from behind, and he smiled arrogantly at them, "You are here discussing the strength of the first class. I almost thought we were finished, but it turns out that we are not. Let's start the fight."
"I advise you to be kind." Zhu Yufei rolled his eyes at him, "Just don't cry if you lose too badly."
"Huh. "Lu Wei laughed and pointed at Li Luo, "It would be great if you don't let your squad leader be beaten to tears."
"Is there something wrong with this person?" Zhang Guohuang looked at Lu Wei walking away. , suddenly complained.
"It's okay, don't worry about him." Li Luo shook his head and laughed, "It will be the same for a while. You play the first two quarters, as long as the score is not too wide, I will play the last two quarters."
< br>
"Okay." Zhu Yufei nodded to express his understanding.
After the game between Class 1 and Class 12 here, Class 12 was in no mood to stay because they lost the game, so they went back to the classroom one after another.
The top students in Class 1 also returned to the classroom one after another. After all, the midterm exam is next week, and they did not intend to waste time here anymore.
Only Liu Shaowen and the others stayed, intending to see the strength of their opponents in the final.
At this time, Ying Chanxi also walked up to Li Luo and raised his fist towards him: "Come on, try to win the seventh class."
"If we win the seventh class, Class, aren’t we going to play the finals with your class?” Li Luo laughed and joked, “Who will you support then?”
“Then you will definitely support our own class.” Ying Chanxi. When he saw the basketball team members from his class following him, he immediately said without hesitation.
But she secretly thought that supporting Yiban would not conflict with supporting Li Luo.
I just support Li Luo, not Class 8.
Thinking of this, Ying Chanxi became more confident. Liu Shaowen and Xie Shuchen behind them were moved with emotion, and they felt that the difficult victory just now was worth it.
I am also looking forward to the finals.
"Come on, Li Luo!" Xie Shuchen came forward and bumped fists with Li Luo. As partners in the rock club, the two had a pretty good relationship. He also sent his blessings very enthusiastically. "Try to bring down that Lu Wei."
"I'll try my best." Li Luo smiled and said hello to Liu Shaowen, Jian Zhenyuan and the others.
Not only is he good at basketball, but he can also play guitar and sing. As the monitor of Class 8, he is also ranked among the top 40 in the school.
Therefore, even the top students in Class 1 did not dare to look down on him.
What's more, in the eyes of his classmates, Li Luo is still the cousin of their class monitor.
With all these buffs added together, when Liao Hailin and the others saw Li Luo, they even unconsciously lowered their heads.
Just thinking about an overly outstanding boy like Li Luo makes people feel out of reach.
Even just walking in school, Li Luo can now occasionally attract the attention of some passing girls.
Even when some girls who were close to each other were chatting together and saw Li Luo passing by, they teased and became jealous of each other, shouting "my husband", "no, it's my husband", "you" in a low voice. It's so shameless, he's obviously my husband."
Although it was just a private joke and no one would take it seriously, it also shows how popular Li Luo is in the school.
For example, in today's match between Class 8 and Class 7, many girls from other classes who had nothing to do came downstairs together, specifically to see Li Luo's performance and to see other boys playing handsomely. look like.
For example, Zhu Yufei from Class 8 is a standard sports handsome guy, but he is usually a bit funny.
For example, Fang Chen is also quite handsome, but he is a bit more delicate than Zhu Yufei.
Lin Yuan is actually not ugly, he is just a little shorter.
In comparison, Zhang Guohuang is a little bit awkward. Because his facial features look like a monkey, people occasionally jokingly call him Brother Monkey.
Hmm...this kid is also the source of gossip in Class 8.
Basically, he can get first-hand information about any gossip that happens in the No. 1 Middle School.
Li Luo often learned some school gossip from him, including which teacher was pregnant, boys in which class were fighting, who was in love with whom, and was secretly seen pouting on the playground. ...In short, you can basically find out everything.
"Classes 7 and 8, come here and sign in." The physical education teacher walked to the sidelines, holding the personnel form in his hand, and shouted to the people in the two classes.
Zhu Yufei and Lu Wei walked over, followed by the rest of the two squads, looking full of gunpowder.
As the president of the student union, Xu Youyu brought people from the student union to organize the scene. He strolled over to Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng and watched the game with them.
The three girls formed a beautiful scenery on the sidelines, which suddenly attracted the attention of many boys.
Originally, they were just bored and didn’t want to study in the classroom, so they wandered down to watch the game.
I didn’t expect to see such beautiful scenery, and I immediately felt that it was worth it.
“Aren’t you going to play?”
At ten o’clock, under the whistle of the physical education teacher, Zhu Yufei and the five of them walked onto the basketball court.
Xu Youyu glanced at Li Luo, who was resting peacefully on the bench, and couldn't help but ask strangely.
"The trump card always comes on stage in the finale." Li Luo said shamelessly.
“Hey.” Xu Youyu curled his lips, “I originally came to see you play, but now I can’t see you?”
"Don't worry." Li Luo said slowly, "I'll let you watch it in three or four sections in a while."
Li Luo said it easily, but the situation on the court was very anxious.
The cooperation between Zhu Yufei and Zhang Guohuang is also very good, but they can't stand up to Lu Wei, who is so powerful and fierce.
The other members of Class 7 were not novices, and they cooperated with Lu Wei in attacking, and the fight with Class 8 was in full swing.
At the end of the first quarter, the score between Class 7 and Class 8 was 14-10, with Class 7 leading by two points.
During a short break after the game, Lu Wei walked over to Li Luo and smiled at him: "What? Are you too scared to play?"
Ying Chan Xi and others frowned when they heard this, but Li Luo just yawned and didn't bother to pay attention.
Xu Youyu next to him covered his mouth and chuckled: "It's so childish that it makes people laugh, just like a wild dog in heat on the roadside."
Lu Wei heard what Xu Youyu said, He immediately opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "Who are you? Can you speak?"
"It's okay for you to spit shit. If you dare to provoke trouble, I will have to ask the physical education teacher to send you off." Xu Youyu narrowed his eyes and warned coldly.
At this time, Gao Yuqin hurriedly walked to Lu Wei and whispered something in his ear. Lu Wei's expression changed, and then he left angrily, not daring to talk back to Xu Youyu again.
"Wow~" Li Luo smiled and teased, "Senior sister is mighty."
Xu Youyu rolled his eyes at him, crossed his arms and said, "You just have such a good temper sometimes. "Hey, are you used to people like this?"
Li Luo spread his hands: "I just don't want to waste my emotions."
Although Xu Youyu is usually generous and cheerful, in fact, in some cases. He is very strong in matters, otherwise he would not be able to fulfill his position as president of the student union.
Especially for people like Lu Wei, he will not be polite at all.
But Li Luo is a little different.
If in the previous life, I met someone like Lu Wei and my temper got angry, maybe I would have hit him with my fists.
But since coming back from rebirth, Li Luo felt that he couldn't get much anger towards people and things like this.
It's like standing in a higher position, overlooking the other party barking underground, just thinking it's funny, watching it like a play.
I feel much calmer mentally.
Of course, if someone else encountered this situation, Xu Youyu might not come forward.
Just seeing that the other party was targeting Li Luo, Xu Youyu couldn't hold back and scolded him coldly.
Otherwise, I always feel that my younger brother is being bullied, and I feel a little unhappy.
Usually, it’s okay to bully and bully yourself. It’s not the turn of cats and dogs to make noises.
After Lu Wei returned to the rest area of Class 7, the second quarter began soon.
Seeing that Li Luo still didn't play, Lu Wei snorted and attacked even more fiercely.
Although Zhu Yufei and others supported the opponent's attack, at the end of the second quarter, the score was still stretched to 30-24.
When the halftime whistle sounded, Class 7 cheered suddenly and opened champagne in advance, feeling that their class was about to win.
On the other hand, Class 8 is worried.
On the other hand, Zhu Yufei and the others didn't look very anxious. After finishing the game, they smiled at Li Luo and said, "Squad leader, will I see you later?"
"Leave it to me." Li Luo and Zhang Guohuang met After bumping fists and making sure to take him off the court, when the intermission was about to end, he finally took off his jacket and warmed up on the sidelines.
Yan Zhusheng blinked as he watched Li Luo take off his coat, silently walked over, took his coat, and held it in his arms.
When Ying Chanxi saw this, he was stunned for a moment, then secretly annoyed, and silently made a note in his heart.
"Come on." Seeing that he was about to play, Xu Youyu immediately patted Li Luo on the shoulder, and secretly leaned into his ear, teasing softly, "If you win, my sister will reward you tonight~"
Li Luo felt excited as she blew hot air into his ears. When he turned to look at Xu Youyu, she had already snickered and retreated to Hui Chanxi, winking at him charmingly.
Finally, the PE teacher blew the whistle.
Li Luo replaced Zhang Guohuang and followed Zhu Yufei and the others onto the basketball court.
Next to them, Lu Wei and the others also came on stage. When they saw Li Luo coming on the stage, they immediately sneered: "Do you think that you can win if I replace you?"
"Don't say that. So much to say." Li Luo sighed, "It would be better to save your energy and cry harder later."
"You!"
"Stand up." The physical education teacher didn't give them any time to talk trash. After handing the ball to Class 8, he blew the whistle and announced the start of the third quarter.
"Li Luo! Come on!" Ying Chanxi stood on the sidelines, with his hands in front of his mouth, shouting loudly, come on.
The classmates in Class 8 immediately started shouting.
When the people from Class 7 next door saw this, they immediately shouted "Come on" not to be outdone.
But Liu Shaowen and others who were watching the game suddenly looked at each other.
“When we were playing the game, why didn’t we see the squad leader shouting cheer for us?”
“It would be nice to applaud you. Li Luo is my cousin after all.”
Xie Shuchen could only comfort himself and his teammates like this, looking at Li Luo's high-spirited appearance on the court, and then added, "By the way, let's take a look at Li Luo's level. I didn't pay much attention to it before." As he said this.
Li Luo had already received the pass from Zhu Yufei, jumped directly from a fixed point, and easily threw the ball into the net.
"Ouch!" Liu Shaowen raised his eyebrows, "Is it so accurate? Direct jump shot?"
"Look again."
Lu Wei on the court Seeing Li Luo score the goal, he immediately clicked his tongue. After receiving the serve from his teammate, he immediately launched a counterattack.
But then, the situation started to go wrong.
For most football games, when both sides attack each other, there will always be mistakes, so it is impossible to score every time they attack.
But since Li Luo came on the field, Class 8's offense has never conceded a ball.
In just five minutes, with seven attacks, Class 8 captured them all!
And all the goals were scored by Li Luo!
Class 7 only scored five goals, and the score was suddenly shortened to 40-38, only two points behind.
Lu Wei got angry and immediately changed the target with his teammates, choosing to guard Li Luo himself.
I have to say that Lu Wei is not only fierce in offense, but also very tight in defense.
Since he started to defend, he has indeed caused some interference to Li Luo.
After all, even if it is the same point, if you want to successfully reproduce it every time, you must control the angle and strength of the jump perfectly so that the line is not blocked by the opponent.
So in the next few minutes, although Li Luo's scoring rate was still very high, he still failed to hit every shot and dropped the ball twice.
Lu Wei's side was already attacking fiercely, and he barely managed to stop Class 8's offensive, keeping the score within two points.
But at the end of the third quarter, Li Luo got the ball again and took off from a fixed spot.
Lu Wei was anxious and immediately jumped up to defend.
But the next second, Li Luo just smiled at him, raised his hand and hooked it down, and completed the pass in mid-air.
Lin Yuan, who suddenly broke out and temporarily got rid of the guard, appeared behind Lu Wei, lightly received the pass from Li Luo, and then smoothly made a three-step layup under Xu Guangtao's pick-and-roll, winning the Two points.
The PE teacher's whistle blows.
End of the third section.
The score officially came to 48-48!
Cheers suddenly burst out from Class 8, but Class 7 started to get nervous.
In the fourth quarter, Li Luo didn't give the opponent any chance.
As long as Lu Wei guards him, he will always be ready to pass the ball when making a jump shot.
After all, the others in Class 7 are not as strong as Lu Wei, and they always show their flaws occasionally.
Especially because Li Luo's jump shot is so accurate, the opponent will always subconsciously focus on his ball.
So much so that Lin Yuan and Fang Chen, who are always on the bottom line, find opportunities to break through.
So with the increasingly perfect cooperation of Class 8 in the fourth quarter, when the PE teacher’s whistle sounded again, the score was fixed at 62-66.
Class 8 successfully advanced to the finals with a four-point advantage!
“Fuck!”
Lu Wei looked at the score outside the field, then looked at Class 8 who was already cheering and celebrating, and suddenly cursed with an ugly expression on his face.
He looked in the direction of Class 7 and found that Gao Yuqin had already left with a frown on his face. His heart suddenly skipped a beat and he quickly ran to follow him without even bothering to scold Li Luo.
As for Class 8, there was already a scene of joy.
Li Luo and Zhu Yufei high-fived happily to celebrate winning the game. They ignored Lu Wei and walked straight towards Class 8.
Seeing this, Ying Chanxi hurriedly ran up to Li Luo, took out the tissue paper that had been prepared from his trouser pocket, raised his hand to wipe his sweat: "Don't move, I will wipe it for you."
Seeing this scene, Zhu Yufei and others were immediately speechless. Then they looked at each other, then secretly looked at Yan Zhusheng, then they laughed secretly, and watched the show tacitly.
Yan Zhusheng just watched silently, and put away the tissue he just took out a little unhappy.
After watching the game, Liu Shaowen, Xie Shuchen and others in Class 1 immediately looked at each other and then said:
"Li Luo is so fierce. Why is his jump shot so accurate?"
"Didn't you notice? He seems to be shooting at the same point."
"It's probably that one. Is the position more likely to hit? It’s the angle he’s most familiar with?”
“But is he not physically strong? I saw that he looked very tired after playing only two sections.”
"No matter what, once Li Luo comes on the field, we must keep an eye on him."
"Then I'll do it." Liu Shaowen coughed and then said, "Xie Shuchen will keep an eye on him." With Zhu Yufei, their center is not that strong, so Jian Zhenyuan should be fine.”
“Their short guard is also quite intelligent. Liao Hailin keeps an eye on him. Don’t be like the guys in Class 7, who just let him go at every turn. .”
We are discussing tactics here.
Over there, Ying Chanxi had already helped Li Luo wipe the sweat off his face.
Fortunately, Xie Shuchen and others were discussing very seriously and did not notice this scene, otherwise their defense would be somewhat compromised.
...
After returning to the classroom, Class 8 returned to self-study status.
When school was about to end at noon, Kong Junxiang came to the classroom again to talk about the college entrance examination reform and parent-teacher conferences. After the bell rang, he announced that get out of class was over.
Li Luo and the others went to the cafeteria to have lunch together.
Ying Chanxi went to the competition class.
Only Yan Zhusheng and Xu Yinghuan were left, following Li Luo to the vegetable market to buy vegetables in advance and returned to Bihai Lanting.
"I need to go to the bathroom~" Xu Yinghuan walked towards the bathroom as soon as she entered the door.
After Li Luo put the vegetables he bought in the kitchen, he turned around and saw Yan Zhusheng standing behind him, opening her hands towards him.
“What are you doing?”
“Give me a hug.”
"Ah?"
While Li Luo was stunned, Yan Zhusheng had already gently leaned in front of him, hugged his waist with both hands, and whispered: "Congratulations on reaching the finals."
" Why didn't you hug me when I won?"
"There were so many people just now, and I was shy." Yan Zhusheng was not too greedy. She hugged him and then let go, winking at him.
I really didn’t feel any shyness at all.
“This is also a hug between good friends.”
“Yes.” Yan Zhusheng nodded, “Li Luo, you are so smart.”
Li Luo: “… ...It always feels weird to be praised by you for being smart.”
“What are you doing?” Xu Yinghuan asked curiously as she passed by the kitchen after going to the bathroom.
"Get ready to prepare the dishes." Li Luo said, "You two go to the living room to play. I will prepare the dishes to be fried in the evening."
"I can help." Yan Zhusheng whispered, glanced at the apron hanging on the wall, quietly moved to the wall, and reached out to take off the apron.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure." Yan Zhusheng nodded, "I will be careful not to hold you back."
"Then come on." Xu Yinghuan Seeing this, he immediately laughed twice and closed the door for them very consciously.
So Yan Zhusheng took off the apron from the wall, put it on himself, turned his back to Li Luo, and said over his shoulder: "Tie it for me."
Li Luo left. He went behind Yan Zhusheng, tied the apron straps tightly, and then pointed at the vegetables in the plastic bag: "Wash these vegetables, I don't expect anything else from you."
"Oh." Yan Zhusheng nodded obediently.
After preparing the dishes until around two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng came out of the kitchen.
As soon as he opened the sliding door of the kitchen, Li Luo saw Xu Yinghuan walking towards the sofa with a guilty look on her face, which made him squint his eyes: "Xu Yinghuan, what were you doing just now?"
"Huh?" Xu Yinghuan sat back on the sofa, then blinked and said innocently, "I went to the toilet, I just happened to pass by."
Li Luo rolled his eyes at her speechlessly, and then was pulled into the piano room by Yan Zhusheng.
After entering the piano room, Yan Zhusheng poked her head out before closing the door, and said to Xu Yinghuan with a stern face: "Huanhuan is not allowed to eavesdrop."
After saying that, she closed the door.
The next second, Xu Yinghuan jumped off the sofa, ignoring Yan Zhusheng's warning, and tiptoed to the door of the piano room with excitement and anticipation, ready to listen.
The next second, the door was opened again.
Yan Zhusheng looked at Xu Yinghuan expressionlessly, making her freeze in place.
"Ahaha... I was just passing by...passing by."
"Huan Huan is bad." Yan Zhusheng whispered, "Don't eavesdrop, I'm shy."
< br>When Xu Yinghuan heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
But she was too embarrassed to eavesdrop anymore, so she returned to the sofa and continued watching TV.
It wasn't until around four o'clock in the evening that Ying Chanxi and the four of them came back from school.
As soon as he entered the room, Ying Chanxi looked around, and then asked: "Where are the bamboo sheng and Li Luo?"
"They are playing the piano." Xu Yinghuan said with her lips pursed.
Hearing this, Ying Chanxi immediately raised his eyebrows. He didn't even have time to throw away his schoolbag, so he went straight to the door of the piano room, knocked on the door and pushed the door open.
In the piano room, Yan Zhusheng was sitting at attention, and Li Luo was also playing the piano seriously.
When Ying Chanxi saw this serious scene, he was stunned for a moment, and he was a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with Xixi?" Yan Zhusheng looked at her doubtfully, "What's the matter?"
"Um... Excuse me, you continue."
Ying Chanxi took a deep breath, silently exited the piano room, and closed the door for them.
But if she leaned against the door and listened, she would probably be able to hear...
"So what's the big hug just now?"
"Forget what you owed me before."
"...When did I owe you?"
" I made it to the finals of badminton, but you didn’t congratulate me.”
“Then why are you still...”
“I was interrupted by Xixi just now, and I only hugged you halfway. Make up for it." Yan Zhusheng said seriously, "Classmate Li, don't move, listen to the teacher."
