How Could I Like Him - Chapter 118
The result of the draw was announced soon, and after a period of confusion, all the players in the first round went to warm up.
They are not familiar with the opponents of Hou Yu and Hou Mo in the first game. They are very unfamiliar with the names of the school and people. This team and them are not in the same province, so they have not played against each other.
Even during the training camp, this team was not in the same group as them.
The opponent’s team attracted their attention. One of the players was 2.03 meters tall, which was 20 centimeters taller than Sui Hou Yu.
Their game is in the second round, and they can only play after the previous two pairs of players have competed.
This time the venue is completely indoors, so as long as the coin is the right choice, Hou Mo will definitely choose to serve first.
Moreover, the auditorium of the venue is specially set up this time. There is a circle of soft sofas closer to the competition venue, where his coach and teammates can sit and watch the game up close.
Back to the player’s position, you can still hear the coach’s instructions.
In fact, the first one to play is good. If it is the second one, the warm-up time is not easy to grasp.
Sometimes tennis is a protracted battle. They don’t know how long the first group will play. They often need to warm up repeatedly so that they can keep their muscles in the perfect state of being awakened when they are on the court.
However, Hou Mo is better in this regard. He can analyze how long they can end the game by looking at the state and level of the first game, and estimate a rough time, and then take Hou Yu to warm up.
After the warm-up, he happened to be able to play.
After playing, the opponent chose the right choice when tossing a coin, so naturally he chose to serve first.
After Hou Mo and Sui Hou Yu were ready at the venue, they sat down to rest for a while and took a sip of water.
After Hou Yu glanced at the opposite side, he muttered, “Is that tall and flexible?”
“Is there a 2.08 meter tall in Croatia? Try it at that time, and pay attention to adapt to the venue.”
In the first game, they didn’t even find familiar people to understand their opponents.
According to Sui Hou Yu’s problem, he would not put any opponents in his eyes. He had only a few goals. This pair is not even an opponent in Sui Hou Yu’s eyes, but just a mob on the way to the big boss. .
Hou Mo is very adaptable, so he won’t waste that time.
Their top priority is to familiarize themselves with the venue.
This is an indoor court, and the ground is a plastic surface. They should be familiar with the roughness of the court and the impact on the ball as soon as possible, so as to better complete the subsequent game.
At the start of the game, as soon as Hou Yu stood up, he heard a loud cheering. A group of people in the auditorium wore uniform clothes, raised their hands, and shouted the names of Sui Hou Yu and Fengyu.
Following Hou Yu’s glance, he quickly retracted his gaze.
Ai Mengtian knows nothing about tennis, but has formed a support club, which is a cheerleading team dedicated to Hou Yu, and will also cheer other Fengyu players by the way.
However, when there are two venues playing at the same time, Ai Mengtian will definitely take someone to watch the game with Hou Yu.
With Hou Yu playing, Ai Mengtian led a group of girls to cheer wildly. The effect was particularly shocking and attracted many people to look at them.
Ai Mengtian at the provincial level competition, Hou Yu is not surprised, never imagined that they would be able to follow after they came to Chengdu to compete.
It is estimated that they can only watch the first few games. The third year of high school will start early, and the school will start on August 20. The finals are at the end of the month.
The opponent served the ball for the second time, and he chased Hou Mo.
The ball came straight to the crotch…
Hou Mo watched the ball jump and raised his bat to block. Although he hit the ball back, the ball was not well controlled and he was somewhat embarrassed when he returned.
Fortunately, he saved his little brother.
After Hou Mo blocked the ball, he even heard the laughter from his teammates, and the audience laughed. He was also angry and amused, especially helpless.
He didn’t know whether he should boast that the opponent’s landing control was excellent.
After failing to break serve in the first game, Hou Mo walked to Sui Hou Yu and said: “The big man serves well, but his speed in front of the net is average, and his ball spins less, mostly flat shots. Deal with this flat shot Don’t move forward, move left and right, this will help the angle blockade, and also leverage.”
“Yeah.” Sui Hou Yu nodded with the tennis ball.
“You don’t need to retaliate for me, I didn’t get it.” Hou Mo understood what kind of temper Sui Hou Yu was, and quickly reminded him.
“Yeah.” It was another perfunctory answer.
Hou Mo could only go to the net to prepare, squatted down, and noticed that the tennis ball got up after crossing the net and watched the ball go straight to the “2.03 meters” body.
The one who was not as sensitive as Hou Mo, could only stand up his racket to stand in front of him. As the body was in a half-squat state, and the ball hit the racket with impact force, the racket smashed the man’s leg backwards.
The ball was blocked, but did not pass the net, fell on the ground and rolled out of the court, where it was picked up by the caddie.
Fortunately, he also saved his little brother.
Hou Mo watched this scene, then looked back at Sui Hou Yu, and finally could only say: “Your position control has improved.”
Sui Hou Yu raised his mouth and smiled: “That is.”
During the game, if the opponent’s player succeeds in securing the serve, they will jump up and hit the opponent’s ass, which is a simple celebration.
After Hou Yu was disturbed by Hou Mo’s words in the morning, he was stunned for three seconds after seeing the actions of the two people.
Isn’t it?
It should not be.
He should think too much…
In the first game, Hou Yu and Hou Mo were able to play with ease, and even won the game before the third set, and won the game.
The two returned to the seats to pack their things. Hou Mo carried the bags owned by the two of them alone. He also took out a banana from the bag and handed it to Sui Hou Yu.
Following Hou Yu stretched out his hand to take it, and walked towards the sidelines, standing in front of his teammates, hearing Su Anyi said: “The second round of draws will also be held at 3 pm.”
“Did He Shibi and the others compare?” Sui Hou Yu kept thinking about going to see the match between these two men.
“The first game in the afternoon.” Su Anyi naturally knew what Hou Yu thought, and had already checked it out for him.
“Okay, just in time I went to have a look.”
Hou Mo stood beside him and bumped him with an elbow. He looked up and found that He Shibi and his partner were also sitting in the auditorium. They just got up to leave, and they were talking together when they left.
But I want to know that these two people are analyzing his and Hou Mo’s play style.
Coach Wang got up and comforted them: “They also regard you as key opponents.”
At this time, Ai Mengtian and the girls came over and said to Sui Hou Yu: “The hot pot here is really delicious, and it’s so spicy.”
Sui Hou Yu has now fasted to the point where he heard the word “hot pot” and began to be greedy.
Hou Mo raised his hands to cover Sui Hou Yu’s ears, and muttered like a sutra: “If you don’t listen or listen to Wang Ba’s chanting.”
Ai Mengtian complained immediately: “You are so annoying!”
In the afternoon, they arrived at the competition venue with Hou Yu and needed to find an empty seat in the auditorium.
The advantage of the small audience in the youth competition is here. Players can enter the venue unimpeded to watch the game, but sometimes they need to sit separately.
As soon as he took the seat, Lu Yanxin took out a headband from his bag and said to Sui Hou Yu: “Brother Yu, bow your head.”
Sui Hou Yu was puzzled, but still bowed his head obediently.
After lowering his head, Lu Yanxin put on his headband, and he raised his hand to touch it. It was a pair of cat ears.
Deng Yiheng looked back frequently and asked: “Why don’t I have a gift?”
Lu Yanxin took a photo of Sui Hou Yu with his mobile phone, and replied: “You don’t fit it well, but you can see how suitable it is for Brother Yu.”
Hou Mo also followed Hou Yu for a while, leaning close to Sui Hou Yu and said, “Take a photo with both of us.”
Lu Yanxin cooperated in particular and turned around after taking a group photo of the two of them.
After Hou Mo took the seat, he wanted to cross his legs. Unfortunately, the gap between the seats was too narrow. He could only sit properly and approached Hou Yu and whispered: “He’s partner is Chu You, and his singles performance is considered middle and upper. , It’s not particularly good, the best result is third in the country.”
Following Hou Yu turned his head and cast a blank look at Hou Mo, Hou Mo smiled at him: “Those who can’t beat me are rubbish.”
“Oh—” He nodded. “I haven’t beaten you before I joined the tennis team. Am I **** too?”
“Tsk, don’t turn over the old accounts, we are on business.”
He stopped talking and stared at the playing field.
Hou Mo commented as he watched: “Chu You is a super forehand, and he will seize the opportunity to hit the space between the opponents. His position is very changeable and belongs to the opportunist. And his partner fits him perfectly. , Because He Shibi is the best at creating opportunities for teammates, silently cooperating, and even sacrificing his own brilliance to praise his teammates.”
“Just like Tetsuya…”
“Ok?”
“It’s okay, you don’t watch anime.”
The two continued to watch the game research, and time passed unconsciously. It was not until Su Anyi came to inform them of the next game that they realized that part of the second round of the lottery had come out.
“The opponents are Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui.” Su Anyi said while sitting beside them, her tone a bit heavy.
Obviously this is not an attractive draw result.
Both Hou Yu and Hou Mo fell silent at the same time.
They thought that they would meet these two people in this game, but they never thought that they would be able to meet them so early.
I only played one game, and I just met a strong opponent when I was familiar with the field.
After a while, he nodded with Hou Yu: “Well, I see, what’s the time?”
Su Anyi replied: “About this evening, no earlier than 18:30.”
Two games a day, but fortunately their opponents have also played a game, which is fair.
After Hou Yu and Hou Mo looked at each other, Hou Mo still smiled: “Teach them a lesson tonight.”
“Lend me your hair band.”
“Okay.” Hou Mo quickly understood what he meant.
This headband is regarded as the shame of following Hou Yu in the last game, and when he meets it again, he will wear this headband again, which is regarded as a warning to himself.
This time, you can’t lose.
He Shibi and Chu You won the game smoothly, and they watched with Hou Yu.
They are really amazing.
This is the thought in Hou Yu’s head.
As for the tactical summary, it was Hou Mo’s work.
After the game, I went with Hou Yu and his friends to meet his warm-up teammates, and happened to ran into He Shibi who came out.
He Shibi looked at Sui Hou Yu and said, “Cat ears are very cute.”
Chu You followed his gaze and looked at him, speechless for a while: “Why do you always like some weird things?”
He Shibi turned his head to look at Chu You, and replied uncomfortably: “Yes, I do like strange things.”
Chu You: “…”
Sui Hou Yu: “???”
After the two people left, he looked at Hou Mo and pointed at his headband: “Weird?”
“Ignore those stupid straight men, they are so cute.”
He reached out and took it down, not wearing it anymore.
Hou Mo reached out and took the headband, carefully put it in the bag: “Go back to the room and put it on again.”
With Hou Yu: “…”
Hou Mo is the one who likes strange things the most.
The evening game became a protracted battle. It was around 19:15 that Sui Hou Yu and Hou Mo played.
The two entered the venue with their bags on their backs, followed by Hou Yu’s headband, and one curly hair was tied to the top of the head by the headband.
In this game, Hou Yu used the racket that Deng Yiheng and Shen Junjing gave him. It was very irritating and bright gold, and you could notice it at a glance on the court.
Opposite those two big men, standing on the side of the field like two mountains, and taking the initiative to greet them, Lu Qinghui smiled and said, “This time may be the last time we played against each other in a short time.”
As long as school has not started, Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui can still participate in the youth competition.
After school starts, the two of them will be college students.
This is the last youth game between the two of them.
“It seems that this game is very important to you! Isn’t it not pretty if you lose?” Hou Mo asked with a sly smile on his face, asking quite annoyingly.
“Yeah, so we will do our best.” Lu Qinghui didn’t care about Hou Mo’s low mouth, and answered calmly.
“We won’t let you either, we must make you impressed with us.”
“It’s already very deep.”
This sentence is true. Lu Qinghui and Jiang Wei are really impressed with their pairing, and they will remember them after a game.
Obviously he is a newcomer, but he has terrible growth ability and awe-inspiring power on the field.
It looked like a beautiful and cold snake, spitting a snake core at them, so that they could not breathe.
Hou Mo chose the right part of the coin-toss selection link on both sides.
Hou Mo chose to serve first.
With Hou Yu holding the ball to the edge of the court, he patted it twice and looked at the opposite side.
After tossing the tennis ball, he drove towards the gap between the two people. The absolute speed and strength were as fast as lightning and passed in a flash.
Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui moved at the same time, but they could only watch the ball pass by their eyes and flew out.
ACE ball!
The speed is 210 kilometers per hour.
The audience was boiling.
This is undoubtedly a beautiful opening, with great momentum.
Opposite Lu Qinghui smiled with a racket: “Small is still such a big temper, it’s funny.”
Jiang Wei has a calm voice, with rare praise: “A little improvement.”
Following Hou Yu speaking to them for the first time today, he raised his chin slightly, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes, and said, “Don’t let me down.”
He treats them as strong opponents, don’t compare them too easily, or he will be disappointed.
He is not afraid that his opponent will be too strong. What he is worried about is that the person he regards as an opponent will not be considered a qualified opponent in the end.
How arrogant to say this to two veterans?
But he spoke frankly.
Compared with the really good people, you will be happy only if you win, right?
Lu Qinghui still smiled with a good temper, and seemed to find it very interesting to follow Hou Yu.
Jiang Wei replied calmly: “Okay, we will stay with you to the end.”
