"We can't be polite to you on the court."

"I understand, Captain Morgan," Li Lei responded.

"But you don't have to be so fierce to me, right? I almost didn't dare to dribble the ball."

"This is football, Li, we must do everything to win, even if the opponent is a former teammate."

"But we are still friends off the field, right?" Li Lei asked, with a hint of hope in his tone.
