Chapter 89: Become the Money-giving Father of the Popular Scholar 14



"I'm so full!" Bai Luoyu slumped on the sofa and touched his stomach.

"Then get up and take a walk!" Gu Nianchen got up to clean up the dishes.

"No, I'm sleepy after eating. I still have an hour of training, so a nap is just right." Bai Luoyu walked to Gu Nianchen's bed and lay down on it.

"Then go to sleep. I'll set the alarm!" After washing the dishes, Gu Nianchen remembered that he had to adjust his evening tutoring plan.

Sitting at the table, picking up a book, reading and writing, Bai Luoyu fell asleep in a short while.

Gu Nianchen glanced at Bai Luoyu and saw that he was not covered with a blanket. He walked over gently to cover him with the blanket and then pulled the curtains a little higher to prevent the sunlight from shining on Bai Luoyu's face.

He went back to the table to read, and didn't wake up Bai Luoyu until the alarm clock rang.

The two went downstairs together, one went to the swimming pool and the other went to the basketball court.

As soon as he changed his clothes and walked into the gym, Gu Nianchen felt that the atmosphere was a little off.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Gu Nianchen asked.

"Liang Jing probably won't be able to play in the short term. We thought it was just a sprain, and it didn't heal after several days of rest. He went to the hospital today, and an X-ray showed a fracture. He said he wanted to get a blocked shot before training for the match, because he has no substitutes and they are all newcomers. But what if it takes him a lifetime to recover? How can we agree to that?" Kangbei explained.

"Your health is more important." Gu Nianchen nodded. The thing he was most worried about happened.

"If it doesn't work, let Sheng Yang take over. Let's do some intensive training this month!" Teng Yun said.

"What can be learned from training in one month? Xiaochen can get along well with us because he has a good foundation. Shengyang didn't even know how to play basketball before." Lu Ye objected.

In fact, everyone knows it, but there is nothing they can do. The basketball club has always controlled the number of players, and this year it is just a coincidence. Either the positions overlap, or the players are completely new.

"Actually, there's someone who might be able to do it." Li Wen suddenly spoke.

"Who is it?" everyone asked in unison.

"Bai Luoyu!" Li Wen said.

"Ah?" Gu Nianchen was shocked. He didn't know Bai Luoyu could play basketball.

Kang Bei nodded: "Well, it's really possible, but you two always don't get along. Can you cooperate well?"

"Who is against him? He's just a little brat. Which club is he in?" Li Wen looked at Gu Nianchen and asked.

"Swimming club!" Gu Nianchen replied, thinking that the brat was hiding it from him and would wait until he got home at night.

"Let's go ask him after training. It would be best if he can come. He plays point guard himself." Kang Bei thought that it was indeed feasible, but he didn't know whether the boy was willing to come.

Gu Nianchen was a little absent-minded during the training the whole afternoon, thinking that he would have to go too soon to avoid Bai Luoyu getting angry and refusing to come.

In order to find Bai Luoyu, the basketball club training ended an hour early today. After they cleaned up the venue, they took a shower and changed their clothes.

Kang Bei set off with Li Wen and Gu Nianchen. After all, in his eyes, these two were people who had a grudge against Bai Luoyu.

As long as the three of them talk it out, the matter will be half done.

The three of them came to the swimming pool. Gangbei Li Wen had a good relationship with the president of the swimming club, so he went to say hello.

Gu Nianchen was looking for Bai Luoyu in the swimming pool. Because they were both wearing swimming trunks and swimming caps, Gu Nianchen couldn't tell that it was Bai Luoyu for a moment.

Just when I was enjoying the show, a faint voice came from behind me: "Is it good?"

"Ah!!!" Gu Nianchen was startled: "You scared me to death, why didn't you train?"

"I've finished my training. Why did you bring them with you when you came to see me?" Bai Luoyu also saw Kang Bei and Li Wen and frowned slightly.

"Oh, the basketball club is looking for you. I haven't settled the score with you yet. Why didn't you tell me that you can play basketball?" Gu Nianchen asked.

"You didn't ask me. Besides, didn't you say that I didn't look like I could do sports?" Bai Luoyu repeated himself in Gu Nianchen's tone.

"Waiting to go home." Gu Nianchen stopped talking when he saw Kang Bei and Li Wen coming over.

"Bai Luoyu, we are here to invite you to join the basketball club." Cang Bei spoke first.

"Why? I'm doing well in the swimming club!" Bai Luoyu glanced at Li Wen.

"Bai Luoyu, can't you stop acting like a kid? You used to play basketball, why don't you play now? Have you forgotten that your brother once won a championship for the school?" Li Wen knew that Bai Luoyu would definitely have a bad temper, so he planned to use Bai Luoyu's brother to provoke him.

The result was counterproductive: "What does it have to do with me if my brother took it? Do I have to take it just because he took it? You guys are enough, why are you looking for me?" Bai Luoyu said and turned away.

Gangbei and Li Wen sighed helplessly, but still wanted to fight for it, so they chased after him.

Gu Nianchen, however, took the initiative and grabbed Bai Luoyu and whispered, "Don't leave yet. I really hope to win this championship, and I really want to play with you."

"Bai Luoyu, I admit that sometimes I treat you badly, but it's not directed at you. I just have a bad temper. Brother Bei and the others know it." Li Wen walked over and said.

"Yes, he is like that. Now that he is here, we are all brothers. Besides, you and Xiaochen are in the same study group. Isn't this more convenient?" Seeing that Bai Luoyu was not as angry as before, Cang Bei continued to persuade him.

Gu Nianchen also secretly squeezed Bai Luoyu's hand.

Bai Luoyu glanced at Gu Nianchen's pleading expression before saying, "Alright, but first, I haven't played in a while. Don't blame me if you don't win the championship!"

"No problem. I'll go talk to your president." Kangbei went to find the president of the swimming club.

Li Wen stretched out his hand: "Come on, brother!"

Bai Luoyu also reached out and shook hands with Li Wen, patting his arm to indicate that it was over and he didn't mind.

"Then we'll go back first. See you tomorrow, Brother Wen!" Gu Nianchen said to Li Wen.

"Okay, you two go back, see you tomorrow!" After saying that, Li Wen went to find Kangbei. They had always been reluctant to live in the apartment and had to drive home.

Gu Nianchen and Bai Luoyu returned to the apartment building together with their backpacks. School would start tomorrow, so some students came back early today.

Along the way, he met several classmates who greeted Gu Nianchen and also greeted Bai Luoyu.

When the girls from other classes saw two tall and handsome guys, they all looked at them.

Bai Luoyu felt a little uncomfortable watching this, but Gu Nianchen didn't care at all because he didn't notice it at all.

"How many years have you been playing basketball? Didn't you participate in the high school league? How come I didn't know anything about it?" Gu Nianchen's mind was full of why Bai Luoyu also played basketball.

"I started playing in junior high school. I didn't participate in the league because of an injury, an illness, and being eliminated in the round of 16." Bai Luoyu felt a little depressed when he thought about it. The teams he didn't participate in all made it to the finals. The only team he participated in was eliminated in the round of 16.

"Puff! Hahaha...you're so miserable!" Gu Nianchen laughed out loud, and only stopped when he noticed murderous intent nearby.
