Chapter 1398 - 1413: Pretty Girl, Pretty Dishes
"Then hurry and help us out! If my class’s two players defeat the other team’s five players, we’ll save face, and they won’t have anything to say." An Qi’Er said eagerly.
"Of course, no problem, watch me!" Lin Mu said with a knowing smile, "Let’s go and cheer them on! Let them do their best, they might just create the greatest miracle in the school’s basketball history! To be specific, it’s their showtime now!"
"Hmm, I hope so!" At this point, An Qi’Er nodded helplessly, as this was all she could do.
The two of them went over, and An Qi’Er gave some motivational words to encourage the two players, since they were the only ones left; everyone else had been injured and the team’s morale was greatly diminished. To win, they had to bolster their courage and confidence!
After An Qi’Er’s encouragement, the two were brimming with confidence. Given that An Qi’Er wasn’t much older than them, she could be seen as a sister. With a beautiful teacher like her encouraging them, they felt as if they’d been injected with adrenaline, almost to the point of risking their lives!
So the two nodded resolutely, indicating they would give it their all.
Lin Mu also patted their shoulders, then shook hands with them. Even with such small gestures, the two players felt an unusual change in their bodies, as if a massive strength was continuously transmitted from Lin Mu to them, like they’d taken a whole box of stimulants, feeling light-footed and fleet of foot.
Of course, Lin Mu wouldn’t tell them that he secretly infused them with three levels of Inner Strength, meaning now these ordinary students possessed the Inner Strength of a Martial Arts Master. Naturally, Lin Mu couldn’t inject too much True Qi; otherwise, it could lead to an excess of True Qi, harming their lives.
The two returned, but An Qi’Er still looked worried and asked Lin Mu, "Brother Lin, will it work?"
"Haha, of course, it’ll work. Just wait and see!" Lin Mu said with a smile, letting An Qi’Er anticipate.
The whistle for the match sounded again, and the game began.
The outcome of a five vs. two match was pretty clear to anyone; losing three players was undoubtedly a decisive blow.
But just when everyone thought there was nothing much to see in this match, eyes widened all around.
Indeed, one red team’s player got the ball and immediately jumped into the air, but this leap amazed everyone—damn, is this person even human?
"Holy, are we seeing things?"
"Ugh... what’s going on? They’re flying?"
"Holy, what the heck is happening here?"
"Did Kobe travel through time?"
"Damn it, forget Kobe, that’s nonsense. Didn’t you see he jumped from the middle of the court to the hoop? No matter how great Kobe is, he can’t jump that far."
Everyone on site was shocked, including the player with the ball—what was happening, how did he start flying?
He dunked, and without a doubt, the ball went straight into the hoop.
Everyone on the court was stunned—what was going on?
"Wow, how did you do it?" One of the red team members quickly ran over to ask the player.
The player touched his head with a look of confusion, and then said, "Holy, I don’t know either. Am I dreaming? How did I start flying?"
"It’s not a dream, this is reality."
"Then, how did I do it?"
"Stop thinking about it for now, let’s go again."
More amazing events unfolded—two red team players bounced around the court like springs, almost flying. Three-point and two-point shots went in constantly; as the game went on, the blue team could only look up at them.
After the match, the outcome was clear; initially trailing by tens of points, they surpassed by more than fifty points.
The crowd went wild with astonishment, it was practically miraculous. With such skills, they could play in the NBA—and even they were amazed at themselves: what was happening? Supernatural abilities?
"Alright, we’ve won," Lin Mu said with a radiant smile.
Everyone present was clueless about the situation, except for An Qi’Er.
She knew Lin Mu was behind it all.
Soon, An Qi’Er’s classmates erupted into cheers, excitedly rushing toward the two players, evidently deeming them heroes.
Meanwhile, Lin Mu smiled, wrapping an arm around An Qi’Er as they left the basketball gymnasium. This kind of thing was a trifling matter to Lin Mu, not really worth mentioning.
Outside the gym, An Qi’Er couldn’t help but express her joy, "Brother Lin, you’re amazing."
"Of course! We have to be amazing, huh!" Lin Mu said with a grin, as if this was a simple task demonstrating his prowess.
"To show my gratitude, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight," An Qi’Er thought aloud.
"Hey, that sounds good," Lin Mu grinned, looking at An Qi’Er as if trying to see right through her.
"Brother Lin, why are you looking at me like that?" An Qi’Er said bashfully.
"Hey, just admiring your beauty. Tonight, I want to enjoy you too," Lin Mu grinned and then bent down to kiss An Qi’Er.
"Oh, stop it," An Qi’Er said, blushing and lightly hitting Lin Mu.
Anyone watching could see it for what it was—flirting.
"Okay, I have no classes this afternoon. How about we go grocery shopping, and tonight I’ll cook for you," An Qi’Er suggested.
"Mm, sounds good, let’s go." Lin Mu was definitely on board, eager to taste An Qi’Er’s cooking, which was known to be quite excellent.
Soon, Lin Mu and An Qi’Er arrived at the school gate, drawing envious stares from the security guard as they got into the car together.
The guard couldn’t help but sigh, "Having money really is an advantage; someone like me probably won’t find a woman as beautiful as An Qi’Er in a lifetime, not even worth thinking about!"
Lin Mu drove to the market with An Qi’Er, where they bought some vegetables and meat. After shopping for groceries, Lin Mu accompanied An Qi’Er to a supermarket to get some condiments. Then, Lin Mu drove back to An Qi’Er’s home.
At An Qi’Er’s place, she donned her apron and headed to the kitchen.
An Qi’Er was different from other girls; she usually cooked her meals instead of eating out, so she was quite knowledgeable about recipes and cooking. As the saying goes, "when someone is good-looking, their cooking is good-looking too!"
