As Wu Sheng spoke, he asked, "Brother Lu, do you think Guangzi has a chance?"
Lu Yibei shrugged and picked up the ball again.
"Come on, let's play ball... how about a one-on-one?"
Wu Sheng didn't ask any more questions. He smiled brightly and said, "Come on!"
…
Whoever reaches ten points first wins the game; Lu Yibei defeated Wu Sheng 10-4.
After the winner was determined.
Wu Sheng braced himself on his knees, breathing heavily again. He waved his hands repeatedly, exuding a kind of languid beauty.
"...Take a break, take a break, I'm done fighting, I'm exhausted."
He simply sat down on the ground with a thud. Looking at Lu Yibei, who was also panting heavily, his hands pressed against his knees, yet still managing a smile, Wu Sheng couldn't help but ask:
"Brother Lu, who's the best player on your Computer Science department's basketball team?"
"Of course it's Cheng Mingli, who else could it be?" Lu Yibei laughed, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"So, who's stronger, him or you?" Wu Sheng asked again.
Lu Yibei considered it for a moment, then decided not to hide anything:
"They were about the same when he enrolled last year, but now he's probably the better one."
He hadn't played for a long time, while Cheng Mingli had been playing against people everywhere during the year, so the balance of sports naturally shifted.
Wu Sheng smiled. He had the pleasure of having barbecue with Cheng Mingli before and had a very good impression of the generous captain.
"Is his leg alright?" he asked.
"It's alright," Lu Yibei nodded.
With time running out, the two cast a few more empty tickets, then Lu Yibei got up to say goodbye because he needed to go to the supermarket.
Wu Sheng often hangs out at local basketball courts. He'd only walked a few steps when a few of his buddies would rush over and pat him on the shoulder.
"Brother Sheng!"
Wu Sheng turned to look at the people he knew; their dormitories were in the same direction, so they were on the way.
"Who was that guy you were playing basketball with just now? He seemed pretty tough."
This person, who had just witnessed Wu Sheng and Lu Yibei's one-on-one match on the next court, asked: "Are they from our college team?"
Wu Sheng smiled: "From the School of Humanities and Social Sciences."
"Computer Science Department? Wow, isn't their department the best in the whole university?"
The man was startled: "How did you get involved with such an expert?"
"What does it mean to flirt?"
Wu Sheng was helpless. He wanted to explain, but Brother Lu's identity was a bit complicated: "...He's not on the college team. It's just that the team captain, Cheng Mingli, accidentally injured his leg, so he'll be playing as a substitute later. That's why he asked me to warm up..."
The group only vaguely understood what they were hearing, but they were just there for the fun of it and didn't press for more details.
"Speaking of this, did you guys hear about that guy who was playing basketball with a girl... right here on our court, he almost got his leg broken by someone's faked-out move?" someone else said.
"I've heard about it, I've heard about it!"
When it comes to talking about men's business, nothing beats talking about girls. The others immediately perked up: "I heard the girl is really cute!"
"Breaking news, the girl is from the Computer Science Department."
"Really? Even the younger sister in the Computer Science department is this good at basketball?"
"Could it be a guy from the Humanities team dressed as a woman trying to fry fish?!"
"How is that possible! Who could impersonate someone so convincingly!"
"You know what, the Computer Science Department is a bit strange. According to unofficial historical records, the sophomore campus beauty was from the Computer Science Department, and she was a guy..."
"...Your unofficial history is too far-fetched."
"And history..."
"...You slandered my goddess! I'll kill you!"
