The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise - Chapter 404

Chapter 404: Lu Yumo Wearing A Skirt – 6

“His sister can cheer for him, but we cannot?”

“Ye Jiu is a hypocrite and an *sshole!”

“Holy, look at him. Is he smiling?”

“They really are brother and sister, aren’t they? Regardless of whether they are brother or sister, I still stand a chance, right?”

…

“Lu Yumo doesn’t seem like himself today. Could he be disheartened after missing his first shot?”

Everyone was focused on Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu, but Su Xing had noticed Lu Yumo’s condition. She looked at Fu Zhi and asked worriedly, “What do you think, Zhizhi? Should we say something to him to cheer him up?”

“But…” Another student chimed in. “Sister Zhi’s voice is too low, and I don’t think Lu Yumo would hear her.”

Then, the student looked at Fu Zhi and added, “How about this? You tell me what you want to say to Lu Yumo, and I will help you yell it.”

“It’s okay. I can do it myself. My mom has prepared a special device for me.”

Fu Zhi opened her bunny bag and began rummaging through it.

The student was excited, as he knew that Fu Zhi’s parents were researchers from the FZ Research Institute.

‘Am I going to see some black technology?’

Then, as the student and Su Xing watched on, Fu Zhi pulled a big white loudspeaker out of her bag.

A big loudspeaker…

A loudspeaker?!

Both Su Xing and the student were stunned.

Then, Fu Zhi turned to Su Xing and said, “I’ll just say one thing.”

Su Xing was so shocked that she did not know how to respond.

‘Well, you have the loudspeaker, so you’re the boss.’

Fu Zhi did not know how to use the loudspeaker. There was a red button and a yellow button on it. She pushed the two buttons at the same time, and a lively melody soon filled the entire gymnasium. “The largest leather factory in Z City in Wenzhou, Jiangnan Leather Factory, has closed down. Our boss, who’s such a bast*rd, leads a dissipated life. He owes 3.5 million yuan, so he ran away with his mistress. We don’t have any other choice but to sell these bags and wallets so that we have enough money to put food on the table. Their original prices were 100 yuan, 200 yuan, and 300 yuan, but we’re selling them for 20 yuan right now. Come and pick yourself a nice bag or a nice wallet. You will not regret it.”

Everyone in the gymnasium was dumbfounded. All of them turned their heads and looked at Fu Zhi.

“I’m sorry, that was a mistake.”

Su Xing went forward and turned off the loudspeaker. Then, she pressed on the red button and said, “Again!”

Fu Zhi cleared her throat and shouted, “Go get them, Brother Yumo!”

After saying that, she paused for a moment before adding, “I will buy a bag for you from the leather factory.”

Her voice resounded throughout the entire gymnasium.

Lu Yumo did not know what to say in return.

Nobody knew what had gotten into him. Perhaps he was happy because his sister was going to buy a 20-yuan bag for him or because his sister was rooting for him. Lu Yumo’s performance soared, and he helped his team score one basket after another.

No.1 High School continued to score.

No.1 High School: 21 points, Hang Yuan High School: 0 points.

In addition to the cheers, the only sound left in the gymnasium was the yelling voice of the coach of Hang Yuan.

“Holy… What are you doing, Chen Shan? Stop that No.8! Guard him! Are you blind? Can’t you see that he is on your other side?

“Defense! Faster! Go back and defend your side of the court!

“Gou Qi, what the hell’s wrong with you? Why can’t you even guard Lu Yumo? All of you, come back here!”

…

Before the first half of the match was finished, the cranky coach of Hang Yuan asked for a time-out and used the two minutes to rework his game strategy. After he reprimanded them for their poor performance, he rubbed his face and said, “I’ll say the same thing for the last time. Stop their No. 8 player. Keep an eye on him. If one person can’t guard him, two people will do it! You must do everything you can to keep him from getting the ball, do you hear me?”

Chen Shan and his team wiped the sweat from their bodies with towels as they kept their heads low.

“Coach, it’s not that we don’t want to guard him. It’s just that he is not an amateur. He is a professional, aggressive player, and his three-point shot is very accurate. Whenever the ball falls into his hands, he will definitely score!

“And Lu Yumo. We all thought he was the weakest amongst them, but I don’t know what happened to him today. He looks as if he’s on steroids. I can’t stop him at all!”

“Coach, we have underestimated them.”

Everyone on the Hang Yuan team felt disheartened.

All of them could see that their opponents across the court were talking happily with Fu Zhi.

“We have to win this game.”

Today was the first day of the exchange meeting between Hang Yuan and No.1 High School, so no matter what, they had to win this match.

With a grim expression, Wu Zhiheng walked toward his team and said, “I asked Mu Chenxi, and the only ones who can play basketball in No.1 High School are the five of them. They are just average cooperation-wise, and they are not as skilled as you guys. Ye Jiu has never played with others before, so this is what we’re going to do now. We have to do everything we can to get the coach of No.1 High School to replace Lu Yumo.”

It was not a rare occasion for a player to be replaced on the field. For example, if a certain player was not feeling well, violated the rules, or got injured.

He reminded Chen Shan, “Do whatever you can. Get him off the field, got me?”

*

Two minutes was a short time.

The coach of No.1 High School did not provide the students with any tactics. He just said, “They might focus on Ye Jiu, but it doesn’t matter. You guys just give it your best and leave everything to fate! If you guys win, your sister will buy you all a bag!”

Fu Zhi was speechless.

There were five of them, and Fu Zhi felt like her purse was in danger.

The players of both teams entered the court in an orderly manner.

Chen Shan gave his teammate a signal.

The second the match started, Ye Jiu grabbed the ball. Gou Qi was the only one guarding him, while Chen Shan was standing in between Song Fang and Lu Yumo.

Ye Jiu passed the ball to Song Fang, who quickly turned around and bluffed before throwing the ball into Lu Yumo’s arms.

Lu Yumo hastily made his way straight to the basketball hoop. Then, just as he leaped up into the air, Chen Shan rushed up to him from the side.

The moment the two of them met, Chen Shan smiled and pitched his voice low. “Fu Zhi isn’t your biological sister, right? I heard that her parents were researchers, and since her biological brother has shown up, do you think the Lu Family can stop her if she wants to cut ties with you guys?”

Lu Yumo froze. Seizing his chance, Chen Shan took a side step to stay away from the audience’s line of sight and jabbed his elbow into Lu Yumo’s stomach.

The ball fell out of Lu Yumo’s hand, and his face turned pale as a paper.

Song Fang had seen clearly from his position what Chen Shan had done. Just as he was about to rush forward, Gou Qi came out of nowhere, rammed himself into Lu Yumo, and both of them skidded several meters across the floor.
