Chapter 1006 - 1004: Mr. Huan, Awesome
The two boys, upon hearing this, naturally turned their attention to the classmates who were still in the classroom."Whether I’ll go depends on everyone’s sincerity!" The young master spoke quite naturally, as if it wouldn’t be his problem if he didn’t go, but rather because his classmates weren’t enthusiastic enough.
Zhu Qianyu felt the gaze of the two boys on the podium, her hair stood on end, subconsciously entering a defensive state, she looked at them with guarded eyes, asking silently, "What’s up?"
"Zhu Qianyu, you’re the most charismatic here, please, please, be our cheerleading captain!"
Although Zhu Qianyu was only a freshman, she was considered a prominent figure in their year. Of course, being good-looking was the primary condition, followed by her studious nature and good grades. Besides that, she was also very active, her tall figure often seen in various cultural and sports activities.
The young master’s scheming succeeded without showing a trace of it, he raised his eyes to glance at Zhu Qianyu, "Classmate, don’t make it difficult."
But the two boys didn’t care about such things. For them, achieving their goal was the most important thing. Not troubling others was never a concern for them.
"Zhu Qianyu, please, aren’t you the captain of your class’s basketball team? Here’s the deal, if you agree to be our cheerleading captain today, we’ll practice with your team for free next semester, anytime, anywhere. How’s that?"
A few boys had arranged a friendly match with boys from another department today, these kinds of matches happened often, but usually, due to physical limitations, they lost more than they won. Mr. Ji was tall, with long arms and legs, obviously good basketball material, and most importantly, he looked younger than most of those present, so no one would suspect he was a teacher instead of a student.
The boys’ offer greatly tempted Zhu Qianyu. After considering it seriously, she finally nodded in agreement.
The reason she nodded was simply because the female basketball team in her class wasn’t very skilled. If the boys helped train, practicing with them would yield twice the results with half the effort.
Moreover, this was a team competition, not a solo show, so there was no need to be so wary of Ji Huan.
But, things often turn out unexpectedly.
This friendly match between departments ultimately became Ji Huan’s solo show.
The weather wasn’t too hot yet. Ji Huan wore sneakers, jeans, and a T-shirt with a casual shirt over it, dressed quite similarly to the students. Once at the court, he naturally took off his shirt and handed it to the cheerleading captain, Zhu Qianyu.
Zhu Qianyu, although somewhat unwilling, had other boys’ jackets in her hand, so she couldn’t do anything in a crowd to single him out.
She took the shirt, hearing the man softly say thank you, and before she could react, the man had already rushed onto the court like a gust of wind.
Zhu Qianyu thought that so-called geniuses excelled in one area but were particularly weak in others. Since he was very good academically, his sports skills shouldn’t be too impressive.
Her wishful thinking was immediately shattered the moment the whistle blew as the teams gathered in the middle for the jump ball.
The ball was tossed into the air by the referee, and he seemed to have springs under his feet as he leaped up, extending a long arm to securely control the ball in his palm. The players on both sides hadn’t even reacted before he was already speeding toward the opponent’s basket.
Off the court were plenty of basketball-savvy spectators watching. Seeing him dribbling with a body as agile as a leopard, his movements were sleek and stylish, full of power and grace, the cry of "Three points, three points..." echoed.
Spectators shouted loudly, which snapped Zhu Qianyu back to her duties as cheerleading captain, prompting her to join the chorus, "Three points, three points..."
The young master had initially stepped inside the three-point line intending to leap forward for a stylish slam dunk, but upon hearing the crowd’s enthusiastic cheers, he changed his mind, swiftly spun and leapt outside the three-point line. He landed, sprang up again, his powerful arm extended gracefully in mid-air, strongly propelling the basketball forward, it zipped out, traced a perfect arc in the air, and silently went through the hoop!
"Wow, it really was a three-pointer!"
"Awesome!"
"Impressive!"
As the basketball silently passed through the hoop, the crowd erupted with applause, cheers, and whistles.
Zhu Qianyu was forced to acknowledge that when God created people, bias and favoritism existed. Ji Huan embodied countless shining qualities: handsome, intelligent, knowledgeable, and even his basketball skills rivaled professional players.
This wasn’t Zhu Qianyu’s first time watching a match between her department’s boys and another department’s boys. Both sides had two or three players with top-notch skills, but now, those skilled players, whether offensive or defensive, hadn’t even gotten into position. In terms of reaction speed alone, they’d been utterly outclassed by Ji Huan.
"Mr. Huan, fantastic!" Finally, the captain on their side reacted and gave Ji Huan a thumbs-up from afar.
Before the match, the young master instructed everyone to remember not to reveal anything on the court, to just call him by his name.
The captain probably thought calling out the name directly was disrespectful, given his gentlemanly demeanor, calling him Mr. Huan slipped out. The title matched the nickname outside people had for the young master.
Of course, neither the players nor the audience knew that the handsome guy running on the court was actually the young master of the Ji Group, worth billions.
Aside from initial resistance, Zhu Qianyu gradually became entranced by the match. Not because of Ji Huan himself, nor his handsome moves that caused constant cheers from the girls off-court, but because of his excellent skills, quick reactions, and adaptability.
The players on her team quickly treated Ji Huan as their leader after he made that one three-point shot as he came on the court. They formed an instant rapport, playing the game centered around Ji Huan, executing both offense and defense perfectly under his clear directions.
By the end of the first half, unsurprisingly, Ji Huan led his "students" to score over seventy points, while the opponents only managed twenty-something. The lopsided score greatly boosted the team’s morale, and during the rest period off-court, there was no pressure, just laughter and playful banter, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
As the cheerleading captain, Zhu Qianyu naturally had to handle logistics work, distributing towels and water to players as they came off the field.
