Since the basketball game had been scheduled long ago, it had to be played sooner or later. After taking a nap, the group didn't delay any longer and went to a nearby basketball court together. When others heard about it, they also rushed to watch the fun.
Fang Younian felt uneasy along the way, not knowing why he felt a little regretful. He looked at Chi Le, wanting to say something but stopping himself. After hesitating for a few times, he asked, "How about... not competing anymore?"
If he had known that Zhuang Xinchun was coming, he would never have mentioned the basketball game to Zhuang Xinchun before. After spending some time together, he actually no longer had any hostility towards Chi Le. Now he just simply liked to bicker with Chi Le, so it didn't matter whether the basketball game was played or not. Now that there were so many people, he was afraid that trouble would arise later.
Zhuang Xinchun smiled lightly when he heard his words, and said softly: "Brother Fang, didn't you say before that with your skills, even if you let Chi Le win ten balls first, you would definitely be able to beat Chi Le? Now that you don't want to compete, it seems like Chi Le can't afford to lose."
Fang Younian glanced at Zhuang Xinchun and frowned slightly. He felt that Zhuang Xinchun was deliberately provoking them to play this game.
"Fang Younian, don't be so arrogant." Chi Le raised his chin and snorted, striding forward. "It's still uncertain who will win or lose."
He has been learning basketball for such a long time, how could he lose without a fight? Besides, he also wants to test his current level.
Fang Younian had no choice but to follow him to the basketball court. He said angrily, "Just compete, shooting or 1v1? You choose."
Zhuang Xinchun raised the corners of his lips and spoke again slowly: "Brother Fang, so many of us are here. It would be boring if only the two of you compete. We can't just let everyone watch from the sidelines, right?"
Several people who didn't understand the situation echoed the sentiment and wanted to go on stage and have a good time.
Fang Younian asked impatiently: "Then what do you want to do?"
Zhuang Xinchun turned his eyes slightly, glanced at Sheng Zhuo, and said with a curved lip: "Since we want to compete, why don't we split into two groups and have a formal match."
Seeing that no one else had any objections, Fang Younian could only ask, "How do we group them?"
"I'm in the same class with you, so of course I'll be in the same group with you." Zhuang Xinchun's smile became even brighter. "Chen Yunzhou and Brother Zhuo are your friends, so of course they'll be with us..."
Sheng Zhuo leaned against the basketball hoop and said in a cold voice: "I'm in the same group with Chi Le."
Zhuang Xinchun's voice choked. He originally wanted to be in a group with Sheng Zhuo, Chen Yunzhou and Fang Younian to remind Sheng Zhuo who was closer to him. Unexpectedly, Sheng Zhuo chose to be in a group with Chi Le
Zhuang Xinchun pursed his lips in despair, "Brother Zhuo, you often play basketball with Fang Younian and Chen Yunzhou, and you have been friends for many years. Compared with Chi Le, you have a better understanding. I think you are more suitable to be in the same group with us..."
Sheng Zhuo said calmly, "Chi Le and I have been practicing together for the past half month, and we have developed a tacit understanding."
Zhuang Xinchun tried to persuade him again, "But you and Fang Younian are good friends, don't you want to help him?"
Sheng Zhuo glanced at Fang Younian and said, "I don't want to."
Fang Younian: “…” He seemed to have gotten used to it and didn’t feel very sad.
Zhuang Xinchun bit her lip, knowing that Sheng Zhuo had made up his mind. No matter how much he said, it would be useless. Sheng Zhuo was just that kind of person. Once he made a decision, no one else could change it. Even if he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
