Chapter 175: Chapter 133: Cunning Trick

Bai Ziyi had someone in front of him...

And another person?

At that moment, an overlooked or unexpected person suddenly cut diagonally!

Slap!

The basketball was intercepted midway!

The opponent sprinted with the basketball to the other side!

Li Run’s lips curled up, very good!

"Ha! Four people are useless!" Han Yuanchong loudly mocked, then chased after the player in front...

Sui Yi and Ah A exchanged glances.

Four people are useless?

What about two?

A slight step.

Speed!

Here it comes!

Ah A dodged left and right with lightning speed, leaving the defender swearing, while Li Run, hearing the fast footsteps behind him, fixed his gaze on Sui Yi.

He dared not underestimate Sui Yi by now, and as a man with much pride, he couldn’t allow himself to be "thrown off" twice by a woman.

So with narrowed eyes, Li Run pushed his much larger body close to Sui Yi, intending to overpower her with his size.

Of course, whether he harbored any ulterior motives was unknown.

Possibly not very passionate in that situation, Li Run was still driven by a man’s desire to win, so the force he exerted was quite strong, almost as if he wanted to force Sui Yi outside the lines!

However, Ah A had already dodged the toughest gangster youth.

Not to mention Sui Yi, who was far stronger than Ah A. At that moment, as Li Run pressed towards her, she quickly took a step.

That speed made Li Run feel a cold breeze. In the blink of an eye, Sui Yi was gone.

Below the court, Yu Hang and others were incredibly shocked. What was that just now...

In reality, Sui Yi hadn’t used any exaggerated movements to avoid Li Run; she simply used a perfectly adequate, yet incredibly agile and quick speed to flash by him.

Then...

She quickly aligned with Ah A, running on parallel paths across the court, leaving a stunning trajectory.

Then...

The youth sprinting with the ball heard the cries from Han Yuanchong and others, indicating trouble, but could not react in time,

Swish!

Suddenly, there was an additional shadow in front.

An expressionless face of Ah A appeared right before him.

Ah A was about to shoot!

In a critical moment...

"Zhang Yang, the ball!"

He passed the ball to Zhang Yang!

The pass was incredibly fast, perfect!

Zhang Yang was already prepared to receive the ball on the left side under the basket!

His hands were already spread open...

Yu Hang and the others’ eyes widened.

It was foreseeable that if Zhang Yang got the ball, with no one guarding and close below the basket,

The shot would definitely go in!

That would be adding insult to injury!

"No....." The injured Yu Hang couldn’t help but want to stand up.

But he gasped sharply from a sudden pain in his waist.

Slap!

The ball was in hand, held by a pair of slender and beautiful white palms.

In Zhang Yang’s view, a shadow suddenly appeared just over a meter in front of him.

Long flowing hair as black as moist ink gradually spreading with watercolor, fluttering in the wind...

A faint fragrance wafted over.

Is this a dream?

For that moment, Zhang Yang’s maintained posture—hands spread open and held in the air, as if to catch, push or emit something...

In many people’s eyes, it was quite comical.

It was like the street fighting game move, ’aduki’! (Can you understand? Haha, this was a popular game move back in the day, imagine it as Master Roshi’s Kamehameha)

The next second, slap slap, the noise of Sui Yi smacking the ball with alternating left and right hands suddenly woke Zhang Yang from his daze, and he saw Sui Yi already sprinting forward with the ball in an extremely beautiful dribbling style.

At that time, Li Run and others converged from various directions chasing her!

Ah A and others followed closely, guarding them intensely.

The atmosphere was extremely tense...

"Go go go!"

"Ah, Sui Yi!!!!"

Lin Chuxiao and the others seemed crazy!

Perhaps only the pounding sound of the basketball could describe their heartbeats.

Thump thump thump!

Swish!

Sui Yi approached the three-point line... a meter away.

The toughest gangster finally let Li Run and another person surround Ah A, then he confronted Sui Yi in front of her!

He made a big swipe, trying to knock the ball away?

Or just clapping hands?

The force was tremendous!

So strong it could turn a girl’s hand into a swollen pig’s trotter after soaking in water.

Swish!

Sui Yi’s hand and the ball were gone!

Slap! Slap!

Behind Sui Yi, the basketball passed through her hands!

A beautiful back body play!

The ball went to the other side, and at the same time, Sui Yi’s form flashed!

The youth felt the tips of her hair brush against the back of his hand..

Simultaneously, as the youth tried to block and Li Run arrived, the basketball passed between his legs!

Slap!

Dribbling past!

No one ahead!

People were behind her but were unable to catch up, only able to watch her...

Jump up, raise the ball, throw!

A perfect parabola!

Swish!

Perfect swish!

"Perfect!"

Some high school students couldn’t contain their excitement and shouted!

Thump!

The ball hit the ground! Bounced! Then hit the ground again!

Only then did someone yell, "Three-point line!"

All eyes starkly focused on the three-point line just in front of Sui Yi’s toes.

A three-pointer?

"Uh... can girls make three-pointers too?"

Many boys had seen girls tossing the ball with both hands, looking no better than a gorilla shooting hoops, but they hadn’t used this as a way to mock the girls to boost their superiority.

Now, they were utterly speechless.

After all, most girls didn’t even have the strength to shoot from the two-point line, let alone the three-point line.

Sui Yi’s move was light and crisp, with a beautiful posture to boot—um, that stance somewhat resembled Bai Ziyi, the most accurate shooter...

Smack!

The ball went through the net.

Li Run and his gang’s faces fell, while Yu Hang and his buddies’ mouths were agape in excitement!

"Uh... three points!" Shi Chao, feeling awkward to ignore this clear three-pointer, asked the scorekeeper to mark three points.

At that moment, the score became 35-32.

Time...

"Five minutes left!"

Five minutes!

Li Run and his people quickly called a timeout!

They couldn’t afford not to!

Sui Yi and Ah A’s speeds were terrifying!

But, what could be done in five minutes?

Could they take out Sui Yi and his partner and then bury them on the spot?

Of course not!

"Don’t rush... Yuanchong, you go and say..." Li Run whispered something to Han Yuanchong, and with a look of unwillingness mixed with tension, Han Yuanchong’s eyes lit up and he nodded...

Then he quickly ran towards Shi Chao and the others.

On Yu Hang’s side.

"Come on, drink some water, drink some water!"

"Sui Yi, come, drink some water..."

Four of them received a warm reception...

While holding a water bottle, Sui Yi did not drink, glanced from the corner of his eye, and just caught sight of Han Yuanchong running to Shi Chao to say something...

Shi Chao, listening, shook his head, frowned, then glanced back at their side, his expression somewhat hesitant...

Eventually, unsure of what Han Yuanchong resolutely said, he squinted his eyes and finally nodded.

Just that one nod.

Sui Yi raised an eyebrow triumphantly.

"What kind of trick are they up to now!" Ah A frowned deeply in dissatisfaction. It was supposed to be a good game. He had wanted to soak up the simple atmosphere of high school, but it turned out their opponents were darker than ink.

If it weren’t for Sui Yi, this game was doomed!

"No idea... seems like... they might just be stalling for time, if they’re not foolish enough to have the principal declare them the winners outright."

Sui Yi smiled lightly.

Sure enough, just after she said this...

The principal announced he needed to step out for a bit and would be back soon.

In his words, there was no indication of letting someone else referee.

Could the students tell the principal there’s no need to come back, that they could get someone else to judge?

They couldn’t!

Li Run and the principal simply played a very simple trick, but it exasperated Yu Hang and his team to no end!

By then, Li Run had already hung up the phone.

He looked towards Sui Yi and others with a mocking smile, thinking they wanted to win? Dream on!

--------

How long is a while?

Actually, not long at all. The students on the court ate, drank, and played for just over ten minutes, not even halfway through their snacks, when the principal returned.

But in the minute before the principal’s return,

A tall, masculine, handsome youth in a tracksuit walked into the court, taking off his jacket while walking towards Li Run smiling, "Young Master Li, did you call me here just to play basketball with these kids?"

There was a note of discontent in his tone.

Li Run squinted, "Big Brother Gao, since you’re from the Provincial City basketball team, it really is beneath you, but one of my guys got hurt, that’s why we needed you... don’t worry, I’ll take you out for some real fun later."

Those words, "real fun", sparked interest in Gao Yun, who shared an understanding smile with Li Run before tossing his jacket to Han Yuanchong.

"Alright, I’m in!"

As he took off his jacket and turned, his towering presence commanded the court.

Previously, the mention of the Provincial City basketball team chilled the entire court’s atmosphere, then quickly turned raucous again.

Provincial City’s...

What a monstrous cheat!

Li Run, do you have no shame at all!

"Fuck! This is outrageous," Chi Gao cursed, rolling up his sleeves as if to charge forward, but Xiao Nan and the others held him back.

Until Sui Yi said a word.

"In such a match, if we lose, who would think we truly lost? Since that’s the case, why fear anything?"

She paused, then smiled.

"On the contrary, winning would truly be something to celebrate."

Winning and losing, she did not care much about.

However, she never engaged in anything without assurance.

--------

After a while, both teams returned to the court.

Gao Yun was tall and strong, especially his legs, even longer than Zhang Yang’s.

Now the ball was in his hands.

Dribble, dribble, dribble, he took a few steps, followed by Li Run and his team...

Pressing towards Sui Yi’s side...

The moment Ah A burst forward!

Gao Yun made his move!

Sprinting!

His speed was only slightly less than Ah A’s.

Ah A got in front of him!
