Chapter 463 Play Until You Are Convinced
Under everyone’s attention, although Zhong Anguo knew that he had lost, he could not lose face as he exclaimed, “If you are capable, then let’s have another game. Let me go first.”
Qin Haodong glanced at him and said in his heart that this guy was too shameless. “He pretended to give the ball to me first, and now he won’t admit defeat after he lost. Since you are so shameless, I will hit your face ruthlessly.”
Qin Haodong said, “Okay. You said it yourself, so don’t regret it.”
Seeing that Qin Haodong had agreed, Zhong Anguo immediately became overjoyed. In his view, Qin Haodong could only shoot three-pointers, thus he could not compete against him in other aspects. As long as he had the ball, Qin Haodong could only helplessly accept it.
“Of course I won’t regret it. I’m going to play until you become miserable.”
After he spoke, he immediately took the ball and walked towards the service line.
Seeing that there was excitement to watch again, the people who were about to disperse retreated back outside the court and continued to look in high spirits.
Zhong Anguo grabbed the basketball with one hand, as if the court had been controlled by him, and shouted at Qin Haodong, “Are you ready? I’m going to start.”
“Okay. Bring it!”
Qin Haodong said very casually.
He also stood there very casually, not raising his arms like Zhong Anguo had. He also did not take a defensive posture. He did not look like a player at all, but more like a spectator on the sidelines.
“Newbie!”
Zhong Anguo became more certain that Qin Haodong was a newbie who could not play basketball.
“Bang… Bang… Bang…”
Zhong Anguo dribbled the ball and rushed forward. Qin Haodong still followed him casually.
“Since you don’t know how to defend, then I will also show you my three-pointer.”
After he made up his mind, Zhong Anguo made a beautiful sudden stop. Then, he jumped up high and threw the ball with both hands with a standard posture.
After the ball left his hands, he made a smug smile with the corners of his mouth. His hand felt so good that he was bound to score the three-pointer.
“Nice ball. Boss Zhong is also making a three-pointer…”
Liu Wei and Zhang Chao yelled excitedly on the side. They wanted their boss to win back the game.
But before they had finished yelling, Qin Haodong’s figure appeared abruptly in mid-air. His right hand raised up high as it slammed on the ball that was just thrown out.
“Sh*t. A block. This guy actually blocked Boss Zhong!”
Not only was the audience around them surprised, even Zhong Anguo was extremely surprised. He was 1.95 meters tall, while Qin Haodong was only 1.80 meters. There was such a big gap between them, coupled with Zhong Anguo’s backward jump shot, generally speaking, it was impossible to be blocked.
But the guy in front of him was a monster. He made something that was obviously impossible into something possible here.
However, this was not the end. The ball that Qin Haodong slapped had bounced back and hit Zhong Anguo on his left cheek.
It was so powerful that Zhong Anguo’s cheek was not only swollen, it had also made him unable to control the balance of his body. He fell to the ground with a plop.
The entire audience was silent. No one had ever seen such a fierce block.
After being stupefied for a moment, Zhang Chao and Liu Wei immediately rushed up. They pointed at Qin Haodong and shouted, “What are you doing brat? No one plays like that.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Why? He made a shot while I blocked. What’s wrong with that? Did I make a foul or is it that you guys can’t afford to play?”
“You…”
Zhang Chao and Liu Wei immediately lost their words. Although Zhong Anguo was hit hard, Qin Haodong’s block was clean without any sloppiness, so there were no fouls. Being hit was really a humiliation. They could not voice their bitterness.
Li Meiyu also ran up to Qin Haodong, then she glared at them and said, “What are you guys doing? It was a block. Being hit was an accident. Are you guys trying to cheat?”
People around them also began to discuss. No one had any objections as they were on Qin Haodong’s side. After all, no matter football or basketball, there was never a foul from being hit by the ball, and it could only blame the player that was hit for not defending well.
At that moment, Zhong Anguo stood up while clutching his red and swollen cheeks. Although he was frustrated from this hit, he really could not find any reason to complain. Therefore, he waved at Zhang Chao and Liu Wei for them to retreat.
Qin Haodong picked up the ball and spun it in his hand. He looked at Zhong Anguo and said, “I know you are not convinced. How about this? Let’s go again. The ball is still yours. Today, I will play until you are convinced.”
His words were extremely domineering as he threw the ball over.
Zhong Anguo caught the ball. He was indeed unconvinced. The guy opposite him did not seem like he knew how to play basketball. How could Zhong Anguo lose?
The one-on-one match began again. It was still Zhong Anguo who took the lead in controlling the ball.
This time he became more cautious. He kept breaking forward with the ball, looking for opportunities, while Qin Haodong still followed him like he was shopping. He did not steal or press forward, as if waiting for Zhong Anguo to shoot.
This time, Zhong Anguo gave up the idea of being in the limelight. He took the ball directly into the three-point line, then he found a position where he was best at and raised the ball to shoot,
As soon as he lifted the ball, Qin Haodong jumped abruptly. His jump was amazing as he completely sealed the offensive route of ball.
Zhong Anguo had a strange smile on the corners of his swollen mouth. He had just faked, and Qin Haodong, who was not experienced on court, was fooled.
A person could not hang in the air forever. When Qin Haodong’s body fell quickly, Zhong Anguo instantly jumped. The ball in his hand drew an arc as it flew out.
“Nice ball. Boss Zhong really is amazing. The guy opposite him can’t even see a fake move and was easily fooled.”
“The game comes finally back on track. This time, Boss Zhong will definitely score…”
Right when everyone thought that Zhong Anguo was bound to succeed this time around, they saw Qin Haodong gently tap his toes on the ground. The body that had just landed jumped up again. This time, he jumped faster and higher. Afterwards, he held out his right hand and blocked the ball that had just flown out.
So what if Zhong Anguo was experienced and realistic in his fake? Qin Haodong showed everyone that strength came first. Even if he had jumped for the second time, Zhong Anguo, who was blocked, had no temper at all.
With a slap sound, the ball flew back like a cannonball as it hit Zhong Anguo on the right cheek, causing him to fall to the ground again.
With this, his right cheek also became swollen. Both sides were now the same.
Silence. The audience became silent once again. Was this a f*cking coincidence or on purpose? First the left side of the face was hit, and now the right.
If it was not on purpose, then it was too much of a coincidence. If it was on purpose, then what kind of strength would it take to do this?
Zhong Anguo got up from the ground. Both of his cheeks were swollen, turning his eyes into a line. He looked at Qin Haodong angrily. He wanted to swallow the toy boy alive.
Ever since he was a child, he was the overlord on court. He had never been hit like this with a basketball in the face.
“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. It was an accident, really an accident. Your fake move was too handsome, so I used a bit too much strength. That’s why the ball hit you in the face.”
Qin Haodong picked up the basketball with a sneer. He moved back in front of Zhong Anguo. “In order to show my apology, let’s go again. The ball is still yours.”
Zhong Anguo looked at the ball in front of him. In reality, he was a little scared inside. Although the person in front of him did not know how to play basketball, he was a freak who could jump up a second time and block his ball. How could he play this game?
But if he did not catch the ball, he was afraid he would never have the face to return to the court again, let alone continue to be the captain of the school team.
He hesitated for a moment, but in the end decided to take the ball.
Zhong Anguo went back to the service line. Then, he took the ball forward and went straight towards the basket. He had to use his final trump card, which was a dunk.
“While I’m shooting, you can rely on your excellent bounce to block. This time I want to see how you will defend my dunk shot.” It was precisely because this was the final thing he could rely on that he dared to agree to another game with Qin Haodong.
He dribbled the ball quickly and rushed straight to the basket.
Seeing the basket right in front of him, he leaped forward and jumped high. While holding the ball with both hands, he went to the basket with a heavy dunk. He wanted to vent his depression and anger through this dunk.
Dunks had always been the highest scoring method in basketball, and the error rate was extremely low. In everyone’s view, Zhong Anguo’s dunk was bound to win. But right when the ball in his hand was heading towards the basket from top to bottom, suddenly a big hand reached out and slapped the ball again.
Originally, with Zhong Anguo’s height of 1.95 meters and weight of nearly 100 kilograms, coupled with this violent heavy dunk, the strength in the ball would be huge. Ordinary people would not dare to stop it at all.
However, the big hand in front of him was like a wall. The ball in his hand not only failed to finish the shot, but actually bounced back and slammed onto his forehead. Then, it flew up high and out.
Zhong Anguo felt that he had been hit on the head with a staggering blow. He was so dizzy that he could not stand at all after his feet landed on the ground. He stepped back seven or eight steps in succession, then he fell to the ground with a plop and fainted.
Everyone was stupefied. A dunk could even be blocked. He even fainted from the ball that had bounced back from the block. This was rare on the basketball courts.
After being stupefied for a moment, Zhang Chao and Liu Wei hurriedly helped Zhong Anguo move to the rest bench next to him. After patting him on the cheek and pinching him, he finally woke up.
At that moment, Zhong Anguo’s cheeks were high and swollen. Now, a big purplish blue bruise had even appeared on his forehead, which looked extremely strange. There was no one else who played basketball like this.
He opened his eyes and looked at Qin Haodong with eyes full of anger and reluctance. It was not that he could not accept defeat, but rather he felt that today he had lost like a loser. His heart was so suffocated that he wanted to go crazy.
Qin Haodong smiled while looking at him. “Why? Are you still not convinced? Then I will make a shot that will convince you.”
As he spoke, he picked up the ball and went to the three-point line. He slowly dribbled the ball.
The entire audience quietened down. All eyes were focused on Qin Haodong, as they did not know what he was going to do.
“Is he going to make another three-pointer? But just now even the granny shot was used. Is there a more difficult three-point shot?”
“It is even possible for a weirdo like him to hit a header into the basket.”
When everyone was making guesses one after another, Qin Haodong suddenly moved. His body was as fast as a gust of wind.
“Bang… Bang… Bang…”
Within the sound of his rapid dribbling, his footsteps arrived at the free throw line. At that moment, everyone’s pupils shrank as they were extremely shocked.
“Is he going to display a dunk from the free throw line?”
“How is that possible? Such a difficult move only appears in the NBA. No one in Huaxia has ever been able to complete it.”
“Oh my god. He’s really flying.”
Qin Haodong’s body had jumped up while holding a basketball in one hand. He was like an unbeatable god of war.
Slam dunk!
Immediately after a loud bang sounded. The entire basketball hoop shook under the violent impact.
