CH 61

The Sports Committee member exclaimed, “Number 7 was chosen by Gu God!” “The fortune teller told me that 7 is our lucky number!” “Brothers, we will win this!” as he ran away.

Ruan An’an was slightly curious: “Is the number… that important for basketball players?” She recalled, “I think NBA players have their numbers fixed, so will you always be using the number 7?”

Gu Jue said: “It’s not really that important. Seven was just a random number I chose when I first started playing basketball.”

“Why?”

“After all, this number has been with me for a long time. If one of my team members wore this number on his back…” Gu Jue raised his eyes carelessly, “I would think he is very awesome.”

“…?”

“Hence, it would be very likely for me to pass the ball to him subconsciously, causing unnecessary points to be lost.”

“…”

This tone, paired with his current expression was definitely good-looking but to be honest, his words made one rather tempted to give him a beating.

Ruan An’an’s initial thought was that this guy was really bragging rather proudly. But thinking about it, based on Gu Jue’s actual strength and abilities, it didn’t sound like an empty talk at all.

In summary: she couldn’t deny it.

Listening to Qiu Yan’s explanation, the most exciting event in the schedule of University C was the several-days-long sports meet. Just look at the forum, the web traffic could reach the peak just on the first day of the team basketball game before it starts to gradually calm down afterwards.

Basketball games were played once a year, and there were many classes participating.

The personal plan of the Sports Committee member was: Gu Jue will not play and conserve his energy during the initial matches with small fries of the Accounting and Marketing Business Administration classes. As the trump card of Class 1 of the Finance team, he will play again in the final match with the Class 3 of the International Trade team, annihilating the entire opposing team without giving them a chance to turn the tides.

After Gu Jue listened to the plan, he seemed to find it rather unnecessary, and asked casually, “I haven’t played with the other classes before, so I don’t really understand. But are you guys confident enough to make it through to the finals?”

Sports Committee member: “…”

The Sports Committee member suddenly felt offended and burst out: “Although we have never won the International Trade Team, we came in second place for the longest time! You shouldn’t look down on us that much, Gu God!”

Ruan An’an who was drinking water on the sidelines almost choked upon hearing this grievous accusation.

She gulped down the water as she couldn’t help but smile while asking, “Sports Committee, are you worried that our battle tactics will be leaked?”

The Sports Committee member nodded hurriedly upon meeting someone who was sensible, “How could I not worry?!”

“But our strategy…” Ruan An’an glanced at Gu Jue as she coughed lightly and reminded in a low voice, “Isn’t it like a king carrying four diamonds?”

There was no cooperation in the team, and other teams didn’t even have a king, so what was there to analyze?

Gu Jue leaned on his seat and looked at the two. Despite him not saying anything, he obviously tacitly agreed.

Sports Committee member: “…” He was angry that he couldn’t win the verbal battle against the couple.

The Sports Committee member’s suggestion was rejected and he left with grievance. In the end, Gu Jue started playing with the team from the first game.
