Chapter 399: Lu Yumo Wearing A Skirt – 1

The welcoming ceremony in the morning ended somewhat peacefully. Everyone present in the gymnasium would not be able to forget the way Fu Zhi, Ye Jiu, and Lu Yumo had humiliated Hang Yuan High School.

At lunchtime, Fu Zhi took Ye Jiu to buy bubble tea and dumplings outside their school, and they bumped into Song Fang when they arrived at the bubble tea shop.

He handed a strawberry milkshake to Fu Zhi and looked at Ye Jiu intently. “So... what do you think? Do you want to participate in the basketball match?”

“The problem is not what I think. It’s how much you and the school can pay me.”

Ye Jiu did not care about team spirit or pride, as those were nothing but bullsh*t to him.

Song Fang did not have any money to give Ye Jiu anymore, as he still had a bigger mouth (Fu Zhi) to feed.

Thus, he decided to try another approach. “Do you know that our school has its own cheerleading squad? I heard that the reason Hang Yang scheduled the game in the afternoon is that they are waiting for their cheerleading squad to arrive to cheer them on.”

Cocking his head, Ye Jiu asked, “So?”

“You might not know this since you just came to our school, but our school’s cheerleading squad has won many awards before. You wouldn’t be able to get so many pretty young ladies anywhere in Yu City, and all of them will be cheering for you if you come to the basketball match!”

“Oh,” Ye Jiu said. “I’m not interested.”

Song Fang was stumped.

‘Holy sh*t! Is he still a man?! How can he say no to so many pretty young ladies?’

However, Song Fang knew he could not give up just yet. Thus, he pressed on. “Please join us, Ye Jiu. Without you, we will lose the game!”

Fu Zhi, who was sitting not far away, stuck her head out and asked, “Why can’t you win without him? I think you, Yubai, and Zhou Zihuai all play very well!”

“The problem is that out of their 8 student athletes, 3 are national first-class athletes, and 5 are second-class athletes!”

Song Fang looked at her expressionlessly. “In this situation, when all the odds are against us, do you know who else plays basketball other than the three of us?”

Fu Zhi replied, “Nope.”

“Your brother, Lu Yumo.”

Fu Zhi did not know what to say.

“Yes. You heard me right. I’m talking about your brother. He has been playing basketball for so long, yet he still can’t differentiate between his own hoop and the enemy’s hoop. He’s weak, he always gets pushed down by other people, and every time he finishes a game, he looks as if he’s about to die,” Song Fang said. “Not only that, but he’s also a small forward who’s responsible for scoring points and defending. Do you still think we can win?”

Fu Zhi was speechless.

“Well, you don’t have to be so pessimistic.” Fu Zhi tried to stand up for Lu Yumo as she explained to Song Fang, “He’s not good at studying but he’s pretty good at gaming. I’m sure that God wouldn’t close all doors and windows for him.”

Song Fang just replied with a scoff.

“Anyway. This is our current situation. I have to carry four incompetent teammates to beat five dogs!”

‘Four incompetent teammates? Have you forgotten to include yourself?’

Anyway, Fu Zhi looked at Ye Jiu, whose brows were tightly furrowed. “I remember that you like to play basketball a lot, so why are you not participating?”

Hearing her question, Ye Jiu sneered, “Oh? So you still remember that I like to play basketball. I thought your brother would participate in the match, so why do you still want me to poke my nose in it?”

Fu Zhi did not know how to comment. She had a feeling that she was watching a soap drama and the pregnant wife carrying a three-month-old baby was confronting her dishonest husband and his mistress.

“XXX, I went through all this trouble to carry a baby for you, do all the house chores, and take care of your parents, and this is how you pay me back? I want a divorce!”

The dishonest husband dropped to his knees and pleaded. “I’m sorry, honey. Please give me one more chance! It’s all this woman’s fault. If she had not seduced me, I wouldn’t have fallen for her. I’m innocent!”

‘Sigh...’

Fu Zhi let out a sigh inwardly. She then said in a soft voice, “Please don’t misunderstand. I’m innocent, alright?”

Ye Jiu replied with a click of his tongue.

Fu Zhi was speechless.

Meanwhile, Song Fang suddenly remembered something and looked at Fu Zhi. “Oh yeah, I remember that Su Xing choreographed the dance for the cheerleading squad. If you’re free this afternoon, why don’t you join the cheerleading squad instead?”

“I don’t know how to dance.”

“Don’t worry about that. Su Xing will teach you how. All you have to do is follow the steps. It’s very easy! Besides, I’m sure your presence will be a huge morale boost for the team.”

“But I have a date with the other girls from the class. All of us agreed to cheer you on from the audience seats.”

Then, Fu Zhi turned to Ye Jiu and said, “Since you’re not participating in the basketball match, then why don’t you come with me? We can both cheer for Yubai and Yumo from the audience seats.”

Ye Jiu threw her a cold glance before replying, “Why should I cheer for other people?”

“Don’t you have nothing to do? Plus, they are not other people.”

“Who said I have nothing to do? Didn’t you see Song Fang hugging my legs and begging me to join the competition?”

Song Fang was stunned.

‘Sorry to interrupt, but can you wait until I’m gone before you start badmouthing me behind my back?’

Fu Zhi then added, “I will cheer for you too then.”

“Suit yourself.” Ye Jiu nodded.

Fu Zhi had no idea why but she felt like he was like a little puppy wagging its tail happily around her.

The basketball match was scheduled for 2:30 p.m. in the afternoon.

The temperature in the gymnasium was nice.

Since there was still some time left before the match, Fu Zhi decided to take a short nap in her classroom. Just as she took out her pillow, Su Xing suddenly came in and dragged her to the dressing room.

In a way, Fu Zhi was someone who did not want too much attention. Thus, when Su Xing asked her to be the leader of the cheerleading squad, she rejected the idea without any hesitation.

Well, if Su Xing was given the choice, she would not want to force Fu Zhi either. It was just that Mu Chenxi, who was the original leader of the cheerleading squad, had refused to get on the stage today.

Furthermore, she had also seen how stunningly beautiful the cheerleaders of Hang Yuan were.

There was a big difference between how guys and girls watched cheerleaders.

Girls emphasized more on the formation and the movements. As for the guys...

They would only notice which girl was the most beautiful.

Su Xing clapped her hands together and said, “Don’t worry, Zhizhi. I know you don’t know how to dance, so I have choreographed new dancing moves for you. They’re very easy, and I’m sure you can pick them up in just an hour!”

Fu Zhi asked, “How long do I have to dance for?”

Su Xing’s eyes glowed, and she quickly replied, “Five minutes at most. You want to go back to your seat to cheer for your brothers?”

Fu Zhi nodded.

“Actually, I have an idea. You can make a heart with your hands for your brothers when you’re dancing with the cheerleading squad!”
