Basketball is Faith - Chapter 22

　　 Two hours later, Liu Xiaodong was already tired and sweating, and his arms were almost numb and unconscious.

In this state, Liu Xiaodong didn’t have the idea to stop. He still caught the basketball from the assistant coach who had already passed the off time, and threw the ball tremblingly.

Looking at Liu Xiaodong who was resolute, Zhang Tiejun walked over. He wanted to watch Liu Xiaodong grow rapidly, but apparently Liu Xiaodong’s body has reached its limit today, and he must speak to stop the next meaningless training.

“Okay Xiaodong, that’s all for today’s training.”

Hearing the head coach’s words, Wang Ming was relieved with a sigh of relief. As a husband and father, he should have returned home to accompany them long ago, but as a teacher, he also wanted to witness the continuous progress of his students.

“Coach, I don’t need to rest!”

“Excessive training is not a good thing. You need to know how to arrange your training time to make you better, you know?” Zhang Tiejun’s tone was very serious, and he would not give Liu Xiaodong any opportunity to bargain.

“understood.”

Looking at Liu Xiaodong, who was packing his things and preparing to leave, Wang Ming was very moved.

“This kid is not bad,” Zhang Tiejun, who was standing next to Wang Ming, asked somewhat proudly.

“Very hard work!”

In the evening, on a tree-lined path on the campus of Crane City University, Xu Wanqiu took a cheerful pace and said with some excitement: “Xiaodong, let’s go to the pedestrian street!”

“It’s past seven o’clock, let’s forget it.” Liu Xiaodong was very reluctant to go. He wanted to sleep well in the dormitory, where he knew he would be taken out for a walk by the senior sister.

“No, I really can’t wait until you have time, then just forget it!” Xu Wanqiu’s tone was strong and determined, but she couldn’t allow this lazy pig to get out of the boys’ dormitory, so how could it be put back like this? Isn’t it too bad.

“Then come back earlier, and get up early for a run tomorrow.” Seeing that the resistance was ineffective, Liu Xiaodong had no choice but to step back.

“I know!” After Xu Wanqiu finished speaking, without waiting for Liu Xiaodong’s reaction, he pulled him into a taxi parked at the school gate.

In the car, the middle-aged driver glanced at the two students who came up through the rearview mirror. He couldn’t help but smile clearly at the corners of his mouth and asked, “Where are you two going?”

“Pedestrian Street.” Xu Wanqiu replied carelessly, without noticing that he and Liu Xiaodong next to him were sitting a little too close.

“There is a traffic jam during this time of going to the pedestrian street. If you are in a hurry, we will go around a long way.”

Looking at the time on the sports watch, Liu Xiaodong was a little depressed and said, “Do you want to add more money?”

The middle-aged driver wanted to yell at him, how could there be such a passenger who is not on the road! But in line with the principle of civilized service and refusing to be fined by complaints, he reluctantly smiled and said, “It’s only more than a dozen yuan.”

“No, the maximum starting price is five yuan, we will change the car if we don’t go!” Before Liu Xiaodong could speak, Xu Wanqiu said first, she knew Liu Xiaodong would not bargain.

“Okay.” Seeing Xu Wanqiu who was about to open the door, the middle-aged driver gritted his teeth and agreed.

“Let’s go!”

Liu Xiaodong looked at Xu Wanqiu who was proud of his face, and he couldn’t help but muttered in admiration: “As expected of Xiao Qijie, that’s amazing!”

“That is, come with me, don’t worry!”

Although the middle-aged driver is a bit cunning, his driving skills are really steady and nothing to say. After turning two more intersections, he finally reached the pedestrian street.

Jianguoli Pedestrian Street, with a long history, is the most prosperous commercial street in the city.

At 7 o’clock every night, the landmark bell and drum tower at the junction of the street will be lit up on the three-storey four-sided brick wall, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple. It looks like a rainbow after rain. Beautiful and dazzling.

In the open space in front of the Drum Tower, the uncles and aunts were not afraid of the cold, and danced happily to the music beat in the tape recorder. Young people passing by, a group of three, a group of five stopped to watch, and some active men and women couldn’t help twisting.

The children hopped around, some of them loved to eat, as long as they heard someone shouting: “Lamb skewers! Lamb skewers!” After smelling the tempting fragrance, they couldn’t help asking parents to buy one.

The sound of car horns, the sound of music in the store, and the sound of people talking and laughing are intertwined, like a symphony.

At this vibrant street, Liu Xiaodong and Xu Wanqiu got out of the car.

“How are there so many people today!” Liu Xiaodong, who had paid the money, couldn’t help sighing while he was in pain.

“Tomorrow is the weekend, you fool!”

“Ah, I forgot all about it.”

“You guy with only basketball in your head, of course you won’t remember these little things.”

In Xu Wanqiu’s joking voice, the two walked into the street, and what they saw was a variety of shop signs, “Bosideng down jacket”, standard in winter; “first love milk tea”, to bring cold her Go to warm; “2 yuan boutique”, suitable for you on a budget.

The two bypass lights are hung with various store slogans to attract customers. From time to time, there will be a clerk calling out two sentences at the door of the store. Common slogans such as today’s special price, buy two get one free, and buy first.

“Xiaodong, where shall we go sit down!”

“First love milk tea shop? Xiaoqijie, are you thirsty?” Liu Xiaodong asked with some confusion~www.mtlnovel.com~Of course, are you not thirsty? ”

“I…I am a little thirsty.” Looking at Xu Wanqiu’s expectant gaze, Liu Xiaodong swallowed back what he wanted to say.

“Then hurry in.”

glanced at the red heart above the “First Love Milk Tea Shop” plaque. Liu Xiaodong followed Xu Wanqiu’s heartbeat with a rapid heartbeat and walked into the two-story retro building.

“Hello, two couples, what would you like to drink?” A handsome waitress greeted her warmly.

“I… let’s see what we are talking about first.” Xu Wanqiu, who has always been careless, is also blushing and doesn’t know how to deal with it.

“Okay, do you see the two empty seats inside?” The waitress gestured to the corner of the room and made a please gesture.

“Yes…” Xu Wanqiu replied almost in a voice she could hear.

“Okay, please sit down first, I’ll get the drink list.”

Under the gaze of several couples, the two walked over with embarrassment.

After seated Liu Xiaodong, looking at the girl opposite, some inexplicable emotions rose in his heart. It was the first time that he had looked at the little sister in his mouth so closely.

The girl in this cool dress is so beautiful. On the plump face of the goose egg, a pair of clear and beautiful eyes, as if a clear spring is flowing, ripples with the breeze of mood…

“Have you seen enough?” Xu Wanqiu, who blushed to the root of her ears, whispered quietly.

“No…you look so good…” Liu Xiaodong was stunned as soon as he said the words.

Xu Wanqiu was full of disbelief. This was the first time she was praised by this nerd. Is this still Liu Xiaodong?
