Chu Chu, nestled between the two men, trembled slightly, glancing left and right. Suddenly, she gently shifted her little bottom, her short legs nimbly twirling in a circle before landing steadily on the basketball court. The little one lifted her chubby face, proudly boasting, "Mommy~ Uncle Qi, Chu Chu's here! Isn't Chu Chu amazing~~~"

“Great~~~” Lan Qingyue replied somewhat absentmindedly.

Chu Chu took Qi Yu's hand, "Come on, Uncle Qi, let's go play ball~~~"

When Chu Chu talked about playing basketball, she simply meant running around with the ball, occasionally tossing it to Qi Yu, who would catch it, stand at a certain distance, and with a light jump, the basketball would be accurately shot into the basket.

Lan Qingyue turned on the lights in the basketball court and sat there in a daze.

Wow~~~ Uncle Qi, you're so awesome~~~

Chu Chu ran over and chased after the rolling ball, picked it up, and jumped up like Qi Yu. The ball was thrown up a certain height and then fell, not even touching the edge of the hoop.

"Pfft~~~"

Lan Qingyue found it amusing and couldn't help but laugh. Qi Yu turned around and was met with her smiling face. In the similar charm, there was an added touch of innocent playfulness, which made him slightly stunned.

Chu Chu, holding a basketball, tilted her head to look at Lan Qingyue, then at the dazed Qi Yu, and tugged at his sleeve, asking, "Uncle Qi, what are you looking at~~~"

"Ahem~" Realizing he had lost his composure, Qi Yu clenched his fist, covered his lips, and coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment, replying, "It's nothing, come on, let's play ball."

It's rare to encounter a child I don't dislike, and I even find them quite interesting.

Qi Yu throws a ball, and Chu Chu throws a ball. The difference is that Qi Yu makes every shot, while Chu Chu tries her best but the ball never touches the rim.

The little girl stared blankly at Qi Yu for a while, clutching a basketball bigger than her face. Suddenly, she raised the ball, hopping on her toes, and said in her childish voice, "Uncle Qi, hug me~~~"

Uncle Qi is so tall, if he holds her, maybe she'll be able to shoot a basketball.

It was rare for Chu Chu, this little cutie, to have such a quick and agile mind. Qi Yu chuckled, bent down and easily picked her up, standing outside the three-point line and said, "If Chu Chu can make the shot, Uncle will give you a gift."

Wow~~~ What a tempting gift!

But...this...this...the distance is a bit far, and her little hands are so short and she's not very strong, can she do it?

"Does Chuchu want a gift?" Qi Yu coaxed gently.

"Of course I want to~~~" Chu Chu nodded her little head, pointed at the basketball, and then turned her chubby body to lie on Qi Yu. The basketball pressed against Qi Yu's chest, scraping a small patch of dust off his expensive shirt, but the little one was completely unaware. "But... Chu Chu's arms are short~~~"

Although this adorable little one doesn't want to admit it, the temptation of the gift is just too great; she can't be unaware of her own limitations.

Qi Yu gently bounced Chu Chu in his arms and said, "Uncle is holding you. You throw a ball, and if you make it, there's a present..."

"If you miss, there's no gift. You'll have to eat vegetarian food all day tomorrow," Lan Qingyue said leisurely.

Chu Chu: "!!! Why~~~"

Why does she have to become a vegetarian if she misses a shot?

Vegetarian food is nowhere near as delicious as meat.

Lan Qingyue crossed her legs, rested her elbows on her knees, and cupped her chin in her hands, raising her voice: "This is called fairness."

The little guy pouted, stared at the hoop, leaned forward, and flicked his hands, sending the ball flying.
