The game has come to an end.
Amid cheers from Jiangnan University students.
Lu Yibei and others hugged and shook hands with the team members from Jiangxi Electric Power.
Regardless of winning or losing, this is the proper etiquette for sporting events.
As the team leader, He Lin first hugged Cheng Mingli, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
Then she hugged Lu Yibei again and hooked her arm around his shoulder.
While the player who made the final shot was certainly important, He Lin, as the opposing captain, could still tell who the most crucial player in this game was.
Both men exuded a uniquely masculine aura.
To be honest, Lu Yibei was a little disgusted.
But He Lin said, "Stay for dinner later, it's on me."
Lu Yibei then gave up on this tiny bit of prejudice.
"Not a buddy."
He Lin was confused: "With your skills, why are you willing to be a substitute... Is Cheng Mingli your brother-in-law? Or did Qiao Sinian want to marry you? No, aren't Cheng Mingli and Qiao Sinian a couple? I'm speechless!"
"Get out! Get out! Get out!"
If his physical condition hadn't temporarily prevented it, Cheng Mingli would definitely have kicked the seams off this guy's Nike shoes. But now that things had come to this, Cheng Mingli had no need to hide anything:
“He’s not on the basketball team. I was injured, and he came to help out temporarily.”
He Lin: "...Such a substitute."
He hugged Lu Yibei tightly again and asked, "Lu Yibei, right...?"
"right."
"Brother Bei, next time you play against Jiang Da, come to my side and let me enjoy the joy of being a 'substitute' too."
"Eh eh eh eh".
Cheng Mingli quickly stopped the guy: "Brother Bei is also from Jiangda University. It's perfectly legitimate for him to come and work for our basketball team. What the hell are you, you piece of trash?"
Lu Yibei also refused righteously and firmly:
"Captain He, this is against the rules. Jiangda University is full of my dearest friends, family, and brothers!"
He Lin looked at him.
Lu Yibei paused, looking pained, and said, "I need to pay more."
Cheng Mingli was furious:
"Brother Bei, you have such low taste!"
"At most, I'll give you half."
He Lin laughed and asked, "How much?"
"Fifty yuan," Lu Yibei said, then pointed at Cheng Mingli: "If you hit him, you can get another five yuan off."
Cheng Mingli: ?
"You little brat, you've been planning to beat me up, haven't you?"
After all the bickering, Lu Yibei's relationship with the opposing basketball team improved considerably.
Although He Lin had provoked them before, it was just trash talk before the game started, and no one took it to heart after the match ended.
He added, "Brother Bei, invite your friends over, let's have dinner together later."
Lu Yibei blinked: "Are you sure?"
He Lin: "What's there to be uncertain about..."
Although there are quite a few students from Jiangda University here, the number of people they know is ultimately limited. He Lin originally planned to treat the basketball team and cheerleaders across the street to dinner, and adding Bei Ge's roommate and girlfriend would be perfectly fine.
Cheng Mingli also chimed in from the side:
"Brother Bei, don't be so polite. This guy is a rich kid."
Lu Yibei patted He Lin on the shoulder and pointed to the group of people in the audience who hadn't left yet.
"You saw the one holding the sign, right?"
He Lin nodded.
"That's the Ancient Style Society over there; they're all here to cheer me on."
He Lin: ...
There were only about ten people...
"And there's someone over there with a camera—"
Lu Yibei pointed, and Fu Chi, who had discovered something, even made a V-sign victory sign and shouted loudly:
"Brother Bei! What a fantastic match!"
Lu Yibei smiled and said:
"That's the student council over there; they're here to cheer me on."
He Lin's lips twitched.
"And, do you see that over there?"
Lu Yibei pointed again: "That's the anime club over there—although they're not here to cheer me on, I used my roommate's connections to get them to come and support me."
The total number of people is probably enough for one class.
After calculating, He Lin, the "rich second generation," calmly hummed in agreement.
"This matter requires careful consideration."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Li jumped over, wanting to punch Lu Yibei over the head.
Fortunately, Lu Yibei was agile and dodged backward, causing Xia Tudou to miss his big move.
"Why was it PG! Why was it PG! It's all your fault, you made me lose!!"
Lu Yibei didn't understand.
Xia Li pointed at Li Si, who was right behind her: "I bet Vice Captain Xu would shoot the game-winning shot, but he guessed PG and he was right!"
"...Was it a guess?"
Lu Yibei looked at Li Si, who adjusted his glasses, concealing his achievements and fame.
Li Si may not understand basketball.
But they understand the battle situation.
The principle of attacking unexpectedly and catching the enemy off guard is something they understand perfectly.
Xia Li understood, but she thought the "surprise attack" referred to Xu Changhe, but she didn't expect it to be that even lesser-known PG.
"What are you betting on?"
"I'm going to give him a Christmas present—"
Xia Li gritted her teeth and glared at Lu Yibei with her round almond-shaped eyes: "I think you should share half of the cost with me, Brother Bei."
Lu Yibei exclaimed, "Why do we have to spend money?"
Xia Li didn't understand.
"Just find something random, do something handmade, and say it's a gift, isn't that enough?" Lu Yibei said.
Xia Li's sour face immediately brightened up:
"!!"
Li Si was somewhat displeased: "Brother Bei, you're setting a bad example for people!"
Xia Li immediately retorted: "Where did you go wrong? Brother Bei just gave me a slight hint... Hehehe, you old fox, just you wait and see!!"
