Since morning, people in Mianhai have been discussing the basketball game.
If only freshmen and sophomores paid attention to the last competition, this time the seniors were also paying close attention.
Even though they are already in the countdown to the college entrance examination, it is still difficult to erase their enthusiasm to cheer for their school.
After class in the morning, Wei Lai and Qing Ting had just arrived at the Student Union office when three uninvited guests appeared inside.
Jiang Honghong, Lei Shan, and Qin Xue were all sitting in the office, watching them come in from the door.
Wei Lai, who had originally planned to complete today's stamping and clocking-in task in the office, now wanted to escape.
I owed Xiaoting once yesterday, so don’t owe her again today.
With so many people around, it would be very difficult for him to find an opportunity to attack.
"I'm asking you why you're coming here instead of taking a lunch break." Wei Lai just wanted to get rid of these three people.
"Who told you to be the student union president and the basketball team captain?" Jiang Honghong said with a smile.
"We are here to ask about the situation of the basketball team." Qin Wu said, and Lei Shan, who was leaning back in his chair with his hands folded, nodded.
Three people were already sitting in the four seats next to the coffee table. Wei Lai turned around and gestured to Xiao Ting, asking her to get the chair behind the desk and sit down. He then sat down next to Lei Shan.
"If you go to Mr. Zhang about the basketball team, you should get a more objective answer."
"Teacher Zhang does have a better understanding of the objective situation, but we'd like to know more about your subjective state of mind."
When talking about basketball games, Lei Shan, who had already experienced a competition, had more say among those present.
"Your own strength is not enough, so it's understandable that you lost. I'm more worried about your personal condition."
"If it's a problem with the appearance, Qin Wu and I should be able to help a little." Jiang Honghong joined in and said.
What these people said reminded Wei Lai of Wang Zi and Tong Duoduo.
However, it is not appropriate to talk about a friend’s emotional problems with others.
"We're in pretty good shape. Let's talk about how No. 2 Middle School played in the last tournament."
"Well, I'll tell you guys, since it's a points-based tournament, we only played one match against them." Lei Shan held out his hand. "Can you give me a piece of paper and a pen?"
"I brought it." Qingting moved the chair and handed the paper and pen to Leishan.
"Thank you. No. 2 Middle School was considered quite strong last year, and we only managed a narrow victory against them."
Leishan drew a rough basketball court on paper and marked the positions of different players on it.
"Because the senior class isn't participating in this competition, I'll just briefly mention the forward and two defenders from the previous class. Perhaps their teachers will find similar students to fill in. Their skill levels are currently unknown."
In the next half hour, Lei Shan analyzed the characteristics of different players to Wei Lai, as well as their good playing styles and tactics.
When they talked about a man named Wang Mou, Qingting whispered in Wei Lai's ear: "This man is Duoduo's cousin."
Wei Lai nodded to indicate that he understood and continued to listen to Lei Shan's explanation.
"Although Wang Mou isn't very strong, he caused us quite a bit of trouble during the match."
"Is he fast?"
"No, he has sharp eyes and is very smart. He can quickly spot the secret signals our team members use and analyze what they mean."
I didn't expect Duoduo to be so carefree, but my cousin is such a considerate person.
After listening to Lei Shan’s explanation, Wei Lai turned his gaze to Xiao Ting.
In the morning, she said that she wanted Duoduo to join her as a cheerleader as a cover. If Wang Mou's observation ability was really that strong, he might really be exposed.
"Senior Lei, how did you deal with it at that time?"
"They just roared without hiding anything." Qin Wu wanted to laugh when he mentioned this. "It's a pity you didn't see that scene. When he roared, he was like a gorilla."
"It doesn't matter whether the solution looks good or not, as long as it works."
After being teased by Qin Wu, Lei Shan said that it didn't matter, but he could hardly sit still.
"I've told you everything. I'm going to go back to the classroom and get some shut-eye. Good luck to you all."
"Okay, Minister, take care."
Lei Shan was no longer the Minister of Sports, but Wei Lai still habitually called him Minister, and at the same time sent Jiang Honghong and Qin Wu out the door.
After closing the office door, Wei Lai looked up at the clock. There was less than half an hour left. Including the time spent in the classroom, he actually only had about ten minutes to stay in the office.
Putting the chair back behind the desk, Wei Lai sat down next to Qingting.
"I don't think your method is working. Do you have any other ideas?"
"Yes, but you have to make some sacrifices."
"What's the meaning?"
"Just letting you learn from the gorilla."
As Qingting was talking, she started laughing, and the image of Wei Lai howling at the sky appeared in her mind.
"You are so nice to me." Wei Lai's face twitched twice. He took the opportunity to stamp the face of this girl who loved to tease him and sign in for today.
"I also want you to win the basketball game." Qingting touched her face, her expression becoming a little more serious. "Since Duoduo's cousin likes to observe so much, why don't you combine shouting and hand gestures?"
"Each quarter, we'll alternate. One quarter, we'll rely on shouting, and another quarter, we'll rely on hand gestures. Whether it's real or fake, we can just divert his attention."
"That's indeed an idea. I'll discuss it with Wang Zi and the others this afternoon."
Wei Lai nodded and stood up.
"Okay, it's time for us to go back to the classroom. I'm going to take a nap in the classroom. After all, we have a game in the afternoon."
[Today's stamping and clocking-in mission is complete, so there's no need to stay here.]
Qingting followed behind Wei Lai, her eyes rolled around, and she raised her hand to attack him by surprise.
But Wei Lai suddenly turned around and grabbed his hand.
"Don't make a fuss if you have a game this afternoon."
"You used your ability again."
Qingting didn't hear any of Wei Lai's thoughts and said firmly.
The two men left the office and continued walking towards the elevator in the administrative building.
"Who told you to fight back every time you get ambushed?"
"Okay, I've got that in mind. Next time I'll do it when you're not paying attention."
The elevator quickly reached the first floor.
The midday sun was already beginning to be dazzling. Qingting put her hands on her eyes, waiting for them to adjust to the sunlight outside the administrative building.
Wei Lai was not as delicate as her and walked straight into the sun.
"Just don't tease me during the game."
"Okay, I promise you."
Feeling that her eyes had almost adapted, Qingting took two steps to catch up with Wei Lai.
Looking at the girl walking lightly beside him, Wei Lai couldn't help but have a premonition in his heart.
I'm afraid something will happen this afternoon.
