Licheng Twilight

Chapter 23

At dusk, Mu Mu almost dragged her two legs back home. Although she was only a substitute, she knew that if something happened to her, she would have to bear a lot of responsibility.So the training is never ambiguous, even more serious than others.

"Hold out your hand," Ye Tianche stood at the door, as if waiting for her.

Mu Mu was surprised, but she stretched out her hand obediently. Only then did she realize that she forgot to wash her hands today, and her entire palm was black. She was embarrassed, but when she was about to retract, Ye Tianche grabbed her wrist.

Her wrist is very thin, Ye Tianche didn't dare to use too much force, he just gently pulled it away, he pointed at her hand, and said in a serious tone, "Don't move, look, your hands and fingers are all It's white, but the palm is black, which means you've been holding the ball with your palm, which isn't right."

Mu Mu couldn't hear what he said clearly, but he could clearly feel the temperature from his hand.But on the surface, she still looked modest and eager to learn, and kept nodding.

"Remember to pay attention tomorrow, you have to learn to control the ball with your hands, and don't touch the ball with your palm." After he finished speaking, he let go of her hand naturally, and said lazily, "Come into the room."

"... Mmm." She hadn't recovered her thoughts yet, and she didn't think much about why he knew about her situation.

Ye Tianche has never been to the basketball court to watch Mu Mu, and he has no enthusiasm for the upcoming basketball game, but he has settled down a lot recently, and Mu Mu can often see him sitting alone in his seat and reading a book quietly.

In any case, it is always a good thing for him to be self-conscious, and it also relieves himself of some worries.

"Your skills can already be regarded as good. Now, you only need to do one thing well." Lin Xichen stood in front of the team with a rare serious expression, "That is, let go of your hands and feet to play, no matter boys or girls, give them all. I let go of my hands and feet to play. Playing basketball is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it is to grab the ball, dribble, score at the end, and then prevent the opponent from scoring. You must do everything possible to score. This is the most important thing. But I want to emphasize one point, no fouls, otherwise, the losses outweigh the gains.”

Just as he was talking, a mobile phone rang from the schoolbag, and the voice of "la la la la" was very cheerful, and the serious atmosphere that Lin Xichen had finally established was broken like this.

Lin Xichen ran away, "Whoever it is, stand up for me."

A weak voice came from the side, and Mu Mu slowly raised her hand. This ringtone was specially set by Ye Tianche, and the reason was that I was the only one who would call you anyway.

"Hello," Mu Mu took out her phone and walked aside.

"I'm lost," Ye Tianche's voice came from the microphone, with his characteristic indifference, "Come and pick me up, I'm at X Store X Street X Road."

He is a road idiot, and not just an ordinary road idiot.Every time as long as a person goes out, he will definitely get lost.The most ruthless time, actually turned around in a commercial building for a whole afternoon but still couldn't find the exit, and was finally brought out by the security guards.

Mu Mu glanced at Lin Xichen, and was about to say yes, but Lin Xichen grabbed the phone and said in a rough voice, "Fuck, if you get lost, you can take a taxi back for me. Ah Mu is not free right now."

Ye Tianche curled his lips, and said with a faint smile, "Ah Chen, you won't forget the kindness I gave you when you were lost in elementary school to go to the toilet, right?"

Lin Xichen's face darkened in an instant, and the voice of gnashing his teeth while covering the phone was very soft, "You are cruel."

Speaking of this, I think back to when I was still in primary school, the first grade, six years old, Ye Tianche was already a well-known well-behaved baby in the yard at that time. It made the adults laugh from ear to ear, and before they learned how to speak, they were already able to go around and cheat for candy.

But Lin Xichen is just the opposite. He has been a well-known troublemaker in the yard since he was a child, and he still can't speak clearly at the age of six. It has often caused headaches for Uncle and Aunt Lin. Comparing the two, Ye Tianche is a little angel bathed in the sun. Lin Xichen, at best, was a small potato with mud dug out from the ground.

Not pleasing to the eye, too pleasing to the eye.Six-year-old Lin Xichen was playing in the mud, watching the clean six-year-old Ye Tianche walk by in front of him, stretched out his hand, and a big palm print was stained on the little boy's white shirt.

This is how the friendship began. Once in class, Lin Xichen sneaked out to go to the toilet by himself, but got lost accidentally. When he was in a hurry, he ran into Ye Tianche. Unexpectedly, the boy ignored the previous suspicions and gave it to him very gracefully. He leads the way.

Lin Xichen grinned and followed Ye Tianche with a smirk, the two walked to the bathroom talking and laughing, Lin Xichen paused, pointed to the word "WOMAN" on the door plate, and asked tentatively, "What does that mean? "

Ye Tianche looked at it for a while, and finally said with certainty, "It means to invite you in."

So it turned out that Lin Xichen glanced at him in admiration, nodded and walked into the toilet, and then, there were several girls in the same class in the toilet, uh... Later, just like that, Xiao Lin Xichen's innocence was ruined like this, really ,Forget the past.

Alas, even though ten years have passed, Lin Xichen has been brooding over this incident, bringing up the old incident again, and bloodshed and sacrifice are inevitable. Guang, "I knew it, you did it on purpose at that time."

Ye Tianche stretched out his chopsticks, took the opportunity to pick up a piece of potato and stuffed it into the young man's mouth. Lin Xichen, who was still on fire just now, stopped instantly and almost spit out what he ate at noon. It was the taste of potatoes, which was actually the most disgusting thing. Potatoes, you're so despicable.

"I really didn't do it on purpose," Ye Tianche laughed, "At that time, I really thought that was the meaning."

"But, didn't you grow up in America? Why did you go to the same elementary school as Ah Chen?" Mu Mu asked.

"Oh, that, actually, I have stayed in the United States intermittently for several years." Ye Tianche looked away, and his answer was a little vague.

This year's basketball game is particularly lively, and a large part of the reason is that the girls' team entered the game, which has become a major attraction.Mu Mu sat in the front row of the stands with the temporarily rested players of the team, watching the movement on the field nervously.

Listening to the students in the stands cheering desperately for the players on the field, Mu Mu couldn't help getting excited, feeling that the blood in his body was slowly heating up.It is Class [-] who is fighting against Class [-] now, and has already played several knockout matches, so the strength of Class [-] is definitely not ordinary.

However, after a month of training, the members of Class [-] had a good understanding. Now Lin Xichen was dribbling the ball, and he dodged, nimbly passed between the two opposing players, and successfully passed the ball to Big Bear who was neglected in the corner. But he made a face at the opponent, ran towards the basket quickly, then slammed on the brakes, turned around to catch the flying ball from Daxiong, jumped up, the basketball fell out of his hands, and drew a beautiful arc in the air However, it touched the wall of the basket. Mu Mu stood up nervously, and the basketball circled the wall for three full laps. Finally, a goal was scored.

The cheers from class [-] suddenly rose. Lin Xichen made a cool gesture of OK, which caused the girls to scream, and Ye Tianche's look of contempt.

Everyone in the men's basketball team in class one is not weak, especially the endurance is strong. In the second half, they began to change their strategies and gradually exerted their advantages. The game became a tug-of-war with no end in sight.The members of Class [-] were sweating profusely, and their movements became a little sluggish. The team leader, Lin Xichen, leaned against the basket and panted heavily.

"This is difficult, these guys." Ye Tianche said softly, nibbling on an apple.

Mu Mu looked at the situation in the arena and couldn't help feeling worried.

No team has scored a goal for 10 minutes. Both the players on the court and the audience in the stands are starting to get a little anxious.Big Bear saw the timing and intercepted the opponent's ball with a big hand. After observing the situation on the court, he found that the way out of the pass was blocked by the opponent. He gritted his teeth, kicked his legs hard and jumped high in the distance. After throwing the ball, he just watched the ball, and when he landed, he fell gorgeously, and his foot cramped.

A burst of screams resounded through the campus.

There was no way, some boys in the class mobilized and carried Big Bear to the auditorium, because he insisted on watching the game before going to the infirmary.But one person is missing, how to fight?
Lin Xichen, who had just been replaced, tore off the towel around his neck, "I'll replace him."

"No," Mu Mu stretched out his hand to hold him, he was the one with the least rest in the team, he had been running on the field, exhausted.However, the other two male team members seemed like they couldn't even walk, so Mu Mu was a little anxious.

"Mumu is right, if you go on like this, you will die." Ye Tianche said.

Lin Xichen tried to show a relaxed look, "You guys underestimate me too." He stood up and wanted to enter the arena.

Ye Tianche lifted his collar and "slapped" him back to the seat, "What are you trying to do, just stay with me."

The referee began to whistle and shouted, "The substitute players from Class [-], please enter the field quickly, otherwise they will be disqualified."

Lin Xichen was in a hurry, but when she wanted to get up, Ye Tianche firmly pressed her shoulder.

"I'll go." The girl's voice came from behind, with a warm but firm tone.

ah? ? ?Lin Xi fainted.

"Yes." Ye Tianche unexpectedly expressed his support, "Mumu is on the basketball team, she has good physical strength, and Da Xiong basically taught her all the skills, so it should be no problem to substitute Da Xiong. Most importantly, there are no rules. Said that girls cannot be substitutes in the men's basketball team."

"I also agree," Da Xiong, who had been silent by the side, also said, "Mu Mu is fine."

With good reasons, coupled with Ye Tianche's emotional and reasonable explanation, although unprecedented, the referee reluctantly agreed.

The men's basketball players in class one were dumbfounded when they saw that the men's basketball substitute in class seven turned out to be a girl.

Girls, how can you compete with boys on the court?

But Mu Mu's performance surprised everyone, because she was the only one who scored a goal later.

Uh, how should I put it, Mu Mu knows that she is not as strong as a boy, and she will definitely suffer a loss if she meets head-on, so she takes advantage of her thin body to survive in the cracks with her flexible figure. For example, if the ball hits the opponent's head and can be bounced into the basket, and for example, the bad luck of accidentally causing the opponent to foul when the ball is intercepted. Won.

Naturally, after such a fight, Mu Mu was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to twist the cap of the mineral water bottle, and the girls couldn't play on the field. Therefore, student Lin Xichen was honored to be a substitute for the girls team. As for whether he played or not, That's another story.

"Really, I didn't expect to join the boys' team in the end." Ye Tianche stroked his forehead and said helplessly, "But Mumu, you are not worse than boys at all."

Mu Mu smirked, she really didn't know whether it was a compliment or a derogation when the words came out of his mouth. Sure enough, girls still can't let go of their hands and feet to play ball, that guy Lin Xichen knows nonsense.

"However, how do you know that Big Bear has taught me so many things?" She suddenly thought of this, and felt a little strange, since he had never been there before, why did he seem to know everything.

"Tch, is there anything I don't know?" The young man put on a look of a prophet in disdain, as long as I want to know, I will always find a way to know.What's more, I've been looking at you, and of course, I've been staring at that big bear who doesn't look like a nice guy.
