“Yining, are you alright?”

“Miss Jiang, are you hurt?”

Even though Qu Ze was the one who got hit, both Ye Xiaoxi and he instinctively expressed their concern for Jiang Yining.

Jiang Yining was slightly startled but unharmed. She calmly said, “I’m fine. Qu Ze, thank you for protecting me.”

“I’m tough; a little injury doesn’t matter. You girls are delicate and need protection.”

Qu Ze had just finished speaking.

The players rushed to the place, picked up the basketball that had rolled to the side, and apologized to them.

“I’m sorry. I missed it just now. I’m really sorry for scaring you.”

Ye Xiaoxi said angrily, “We’re so far away from you guys! You must be a bunch of noobs to be able to throw the ball to such a remote place! Was there any use in just apologizing? What if one of us is injured? Can this light sentence change anything?”

If the ball had hit Ye Xiaoxi, she felt she could take it.

However, when it almost hurt Yining, Ye Xiaoxi couldn’t tolerate it!

She unleashed all her firepower, and her ability to argue was invincible.

The boy who was playing basketball was unhappy. “I’ve already apologized. Why are you still so relentless? If you think apologizing is useless, then hit me back with a basketball! I’ll give you the ball. You can throw it wherever you please!”

As he spoke, he threw the basketball over angrily.

Ye Xiaoxi was startled and instinctively took two steps back to dodge the attack.

The basketball bounced twice and was easily caught by a slender hand.

Ye Xiaoxi saw the person and exclaimed, “Lu Zhi, why are you here? Are you looking for Yining?”

As she shouted, Jiang Yining and Qu Ze turned around at the same time and looked over.

“Yes.”

Lu Zhi nodded his head nobly. His eyes intersected with Jiang Yining’s.

Very good.

She had just promised him yesterday that she wouldn’t have any contact with Qu Ze.

Today, she was drinking milk tea and watching the basketball game with him.

She was extremely bold.

A storm was brewing in Lu Zhi’s dark pupils.

The next second…

He picked up the ball and threw it fiercely at the boy who had thrown the basketball.

The basketball carried a murderous aura as it tore through the air and crashed into the boy’s chest at high speed.

Bang!

The boy winced in pain, clutched his chest in pain, and took a step back.

Lu Zhi instantly attracted everyone’s attention!

However, he walked down the stone steps calmly and walked up to Jiang Yining. He gently stroked her hair and said, “You like watching people playing basketball. Why didn’t you tell me? Your husband can play basketball, too.”

Jiang Yining was speechless.

Well, she had just wanted to tease him a bit, but she didn’t expect to provoke this big bad wolf.

Bathed in his gentle and cold gaze that could kill…

She felt that she would definitely doomed today.

“Mr. Lu, you can play basketball too?” Qu Ze asked.

Lu Zhi turned around with a faint smile on his face. He said coldly, “Of course, and quite well. Do you want to spar?”

When Qu Ze was in high school, he once represented the school in the city’s basketball league and won second place.

He agreed without hesitation, “Sure. However, I’ll say it first. I’m not someone who plays lightly. Therefore, I won’t go easy on you.”

“Just use your full strength. I don’t need you to go easy on me,” Lu Zhi said arrogantly.

“Alright.”

After the two of them finished speaking, they snatched the basketball from the boy’s arms and walked down the court.

Ye Xiaoxi looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.

Mm…

Why did it feel like the two of them were acting weird?

Everything was fine, and suddenly, they decided to have a basketball match.

However, Jiang Yining understood perfectly.

Her man’s jealousy jar was knocked over again.

Lu Zhi was good at everything.

The only flaw was his extreme jealousy.

However…

It wasn’t a big problem.

Just make do with it. Otherwise, what else could she do?

In the basketball court.

Lu Zhi and Qu Ze stood face to face. Their eyes met and were filled with the smell of gunpowder.

After a few seconds of stalemate, Lu Zhi threw the basketball high into the air.

The two of them instantly started a fierce fight.

He dodged, shot, and snatched the ball…

Neither was willing to show weakness.

The people who were originally watching other games.

Soon, they found themselves captivated by their match.

The audience automatically split into two groups.

Some supported Lu Zhi, while others supported Qu Ze.

Loud cheers and shouts filled the air.

Ye Xiaoxi exclaimed as she watched the intense battle on the court, “Yining, 1 didn’t expect your husband to be so good at basketball!”

It was obvious that Qu Ze was good at basketball. He had long legs, a tall figure, and was handsome!

He was practically the epitome of a campus heartthrob that all young girls admired!

Such an image that didn’t know how to play basketball was simply outrageous!

Lu Zhi, on the other hand, had a more mature and steady appearance, resembling a business elite.

At first glance…

They would definitely think that he could be all-powerful in the business world, but they would never think that he had anything to do with basketball. Not to mention fighting so well!

At that moment, his performance was very unexpected prowess!

The girl’s scream was enough to show his charm!

Jiang Yining cupped her cheeks and said with a smile, “Of course. Lu Zhi won’t lose to anyone.”

“Infatuated, you’ve been married for so long, yet the way you look at your husband is still so affectionate. People who don’t know might think that you two are in love.”

Ye Xiaoxi teased.

Jiang Yining didn’t explain.

The matter of her and Lu Zhi’s unconsummated marriage was known only to the two of them.

While the two of them were talking.

Lu Zhi had already taken a substantial lead, scoring five points ahead!

And at this moment, he managed to snatch the basketball and regained the initiative.

Qu Ze held his breath and focused all his attention on blocking him, keeping him far away from the basketball hoop.

Lu Zhi’s expression was cold as he lifted the basketball and exerted force on his ankle.

He stomped on the ground, and his body leaped into the air.

Qu Ze was shocked. How could Lu Zhi possibly make the shot from such a long distance?

He came back to his senses and was half a beat too slow to stop him.

But it was still too late!

The basketball flew over his head and headed for the basketball hoop.

The onlookers also quieted down.

If this shot were to go in, then Lu Zhi’s strength would be terrifying!

He was comparable to a top international basketball player!

In a fraction of a second…

To everyone, it was infinitely elongated.

Their heart also tensed up.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the basketball.

Bang!

The basketball hit the rim, spun around, and fell accurately!

It went in!

He actually made it!

Heavens!

Everyone exclaimed in their hearts!

Jiang Yining was also surprised.

Ye Xiaoxi screamed and jumped up as she said, “Ahh, Lu Zhi is amazing!

Yining, your husband is so awesome! He actually made the shot!”

Jiang Yining’s lips curled up slightly, and her hands curled into a trumpet.

She shouted toward the court, “Lu Zhi, you can do it!”

Lu Zhi heard a familiar voice and turned to look at her.

Then, he retracted his gaze and raised his eyebrows provocatively as he said, “Continue..”
