The King of Basketball in the NBA

Chapter 286 Thirsty
Chapter 286 Thirst

Due to the low shooting percentage of the home team, the score was finally fixed at 67 to 80. The well-recognized No. [-] Middle School unexpectedly achieved an unprecedented victory.

At the end of the game, Chen Xuanji was neither proud of defeating the strong by the weak, nor ecstatic about sweeping away years of bad luck, nor was he dazzled by the high score, but walked into the school bus first without saying a word.

This victory has nothing to do with Chen Xuanji.

Throughout the second half of the game, Chen Xuanji completely delegated authority to Su Feng. The personnel rotation and tactical arrangements were all decided by Su Feng.What Chen Xuanji cared about was no longer the outcome of the competition, but the deep meaning contained in Su Feng's every move.

"I'm really not as good as a child." Chen Xuanji finally admitted this.

"I will resign with the principal when I go back." After the victorious team members returned to the school bus with joy, Chen Xuanji raised his hand and pressed twice to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Why." Everyone's smile froze on their faces, Anya asked anxiously.

"Don't be impatient, everyone, and let me explain to you. Although we won today's game, it was all due to the hard work of you all, especially Su Feng. As a coach, I didn't deserve any credit. On the contrary, if Su Feng hadn't prevented me from making mistakes, what everyone got now would be the bitter fruit of defeat." Chen Xuanji said slowly, his words were extremely sincere.

All eyes turned to Su Feng in unison, hoping that he would come forward and say something to stay, but Su Feng seemed unaware of everyone's staring. Before he was sure that Chen Xuanji was acting on purpose, he would not say a single word.

"I do have limited abilities. Before the game, I naively thought that as long as the team had the trump card of Luo Hao, it would be enough to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum. It wouldn't be easy to win, and it would happen naturally? Thinking of the military order I made when I persuaded the principal to contact the experimental middle school to compete with us, I was really in a deep abyss. Fortunately, Su Feng gave me a hand at the critical moment, so that I would not throw this old face at the principal. I am satisfied with being able to do this." , Chen Xuanji's tone became sad: "After staying in the thirteenth high school for so many years, watching the team grow from nothing step by step, and suddenly saying that they want to leave, I really feel a little bit reluctant."

"Coach, where are you going?" Anya first took a hard look at Su Feng who was already indifferent, and asked everyone's thoughts.

"Take a break first, and then find ways to recharge and improve yourself. Don't worry, everyone, although I won't be a coach anymore, I will still stay and teach in No. [-] Middle School. We can still meet at any time." Chen Xuanji expressed his true inner thoughts.

"Since you don't want to leave, just stay." Hearing this, Su Feng smiled slightly, and said this unexpectedly.

"Really? Can you really accept me as your coach?" Chen Xuanji almost thought he heard it wrong.

"A 40-year-old Jordan can come back to play for the Washington Wizards and perform at an All-Star level. What is impossible in this world? Although you are indeed not good, who can guarantee that your successor is better than you? And you have at least one advantage, that is, you can correct your mistakes. If you can guarantee that you will focus on studying tactics from now on, why should I drive you away?"

"However, I am indeed inferior to you in some aspects. Since you can do better than me, what's the use of me? If you want to go far enough, what you need is a more professional coach." It can be heard that Chen Xuanji has completely let go.

"Do you think that you can have such a person? In ten days, the league will start. You are not going to be a deserter, are you?" Everyone said that it is better to invite generals than aggressive generals, so Su Feng used this killer trick.

"Of course not, I'm just afraid of delaying you." Chen Xuanji suddenly became excited.

"Improving the head is easier than improving the body, right?" Su Feng looked through the car window and looked into an unknown distance: "I am a player, and my job is to play the game well. How can I have so much time and energy to study tedious tactics? I'll leave this kind of thing to you. It's said that there is a specialization in the art industry. Could it be that you don't have confidence in yourself?"

"Of course I have confidence. Well, since you said so, then I will stay and do my best to lead you to glory. If one day you find that I am incompetent, or if I feel that I am not capable, I will immediately withdraw voluntarily. You don't need to chase me a second time." Chen Xuanji also uttered harsh words.

"Let's do it and cherish it."

The veteran players were all immersed in the joy of not having to be separated from the coach. Anya looked at Su Feng with great satisfaction, with a sense of gratitude that it was you. But the new players represented by Zhai Rang soon realized that after going through this turmoil, Su Feng had virtually established his unstoppable and supreme position in the team, including the coach, no one could shake him.

Giving a thumbs up to Su Feng with infinite respect, Zhai Rang established in his heart the general life policy of listening to his wife and following his boss. Although his wife doesn't know where it is yet, the boss is sure to be in front of him.

Back at No. [-] High School, the basketball team disbanded on the spot. Luo Hao and An Ya didn't know where to go to celebrate. Since it was the weekend, Gu Hanyue would not share the joy of Su Feng's victory for the first time. Originally, she wanted to take Zhuang Ningxue to dinner, but in the blink of an eye, this girl didn't know where she went. As a result, Boss Xiao, who was still majestic just now, became a lonely person in an instant.

Where do you go to pass the time?How about playing a few games of billiards?Thinking of billiards, Su Feng suddenly remembered that he really had a place to go, and he had never been to this place before, so he was very interested to have a look.

Thinking of this, Su Feng ran towards the school gate after leaving the arena. Before reaching the gate, he saw a person entering the campus from a long distance, approaching him. When Su Feng saw it, he quickly looked for a place to hide, but the place was empty right opposite the school gate. Where could he hide?He couldn't avoid being caught.

Seeing that there was nowhere to run, Su Feng was quick to wit, turned around and pretended to just come in from the door, and walked quickly towards the teaching building. Before his raised foot touched the ground, he heard a stern voice behind him shouting: "Su Feng! Stop!"

Su Feng turned his head with a playful smile and nodded, bowed his head and said with an apologetic smile: "Mr. Shang, good morning."

"It's early in the afternoon, so early, correct attitude, come with me here, I have something to tell you."

When the old class speaks, how can there be no room for it?Su Feng obediently followed Shang Guojian to the teaching building, found an empty corner, and prepared to listen to teachings.

"What's that expression on your face? I haven't spoken yet, you just look like you've been wronged." Seeing Su Feng's appearance, Shang Guojian couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, don't dare, Mr. Shang, what do you want me for? If there is nothing important, I will go home first. You see, it is getting late, and my mother should be anxious at home." Su Feng wanted to slip away while Shang Guojian was a little dazed, and tiptoed back while talking.

"Stinky boy, stop for me." Shang Guojian came back to his senses, saw that Su Feng had already run to the stairs, and quickly called him back.

"You still have something to do. I thought I could leave." Su Feng had no choice but to walk back in confusion.

Shang Guojian glanced at Su Feng, and said earnestly: "Su Feng, your grades are very good. As long as you study hard, you will definitely be able to rely on a good school in the future. I know you like to play basketball and joined the school team, but the teacher told you that basketball is okay to play when you are young, but after all, this thing cannot be used as a job to make a living. If you want to get ahead, you still have to study hard, get into a good university, and then find a good job in the future. Do you think the teacher is right?"

"Yes, yes, teacher, you are right. From now on, I will study hard and strive to live up to your expectations." Su Feng still respected Shang Guojian, and quickly agreed.

"Stinky boy, you know how to play tricks on the teacher." Shang Guojian waved helplessly: "Go, go, do what you should do. By the way, don't always try to lie to me in the future, don't think that I don't know that your parents are in the provincial capital, where is your mother waiting for you at home?"

"Hehe" laughed twice, Su Feng ran out of the teaching building in a hurry, went to the telephone booth outside the school to call Hongmao, he was worried that Hongmao had forgotten himself, but never thought, as soon as he answered the call, Hongmao immediately remembered Su Feng.

"Where are you now? How about this, you immediately go to the billiard hall where we met last time, and wait for me at the door, I will come to pick you up right away." Hongmao is also impatient, hearing this, he can't wait to fly to Su Feng right away.

Billiard hall, isn't that near home?Su Feng rode his bicycle all the way, went home first, changed into a T-shirt that he usually wears, and put on a pair of trousers, then ran to the entrance of the billiard hall and waited for Hong Mao.

Almost as soon as Su Feng arrived, an old red Santana squeaked and stopped beside him. The red hair poked his head out from the cab and shouted at him, "Get in the car, I've already told the manager, he's waiting to see you."

Before Su Feng sat down in the co-pilot, the car started. On the way, Hongmao just briefly introduced himself, and Su Feng knew that Hongmao's name was Li Gang.

The car drove directly to the residential area near the suburbs in the east of the city. The buildings here are all bungalows built in the last century. The criss-crossing alleys are as intricate as cobwebs. Those who have never been here will definitely be dazzled by all the alleys that look exactly the same and lose themselves.

After twists and turns, the car went deep into the hinterland of this area, and stopped in front of a very ordinary billiards club. If you didn't know in advance, it would be hard for you to imagine that the people who came in and out of this place were rich and wealthy. The plainly dressed customers in front of the billiard table placed in the open air at the entrance alone would discourage anyone who was aiming for a high-end club. Looking at the signboard of the club, Su Feng wanted to laugh.

How could such a place have such an incongruous name?Although there were a few security guards patrolling the door to ensure that no uninformed customers entered by mistake, and the interrogation was very strict, but with Li Gang leading the way, Su Feng easily walked into this leisure club called "Giant". In a very old office, he met the person in charge, Uncle Cai.

Uncle Cai is more than 50 years old. It is said that his surname is Qiao, but his name is unknown. Su Feng just heard Li Gang say on the way here that Uncle Cai has no sons and no Su Feng.

"Gangzi, this is the young man you mentioned? Well, he looks good and is quite energetic. Let's sit down and chat." Uncle Cai pointed to the only sofa in the office and motioned Su Feng to sit down.

After waving Li Gang to go out, Uncle Cai dragged out the chair behind the desk, placed it diagonally opposite Su Feng, and sat on the chair with his legs crossed. A pair of old eyes that seemed to be cloudy looked up and down at Su Feng. Su Feng didn't speak, squinting his eyes to count the wrinkles on Uncle Cai's face, maliciously guessing whether these gullies would gather into a blooming chrysanthemum when the old man laughed.

"Why don't you talk? This doesn't seem like the reaction of a golfer who is going to play here. In the past, everyone would always introduce his record first, whether it is true or not, at least it shows that they are very confident. You, don't you want this job?" Uncle Cai was also a little curious about a child who could calm down in front of him.

"You think I'm here to apply for the job?" Su Feng asked back. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Isn't it?" Uncle Cai was a little puzzled.At that time, Uncle Cai only knew that Li Gang had found a kid who played well. He took it for granted that Su Feng must be eager to come here to earn extra money, and didn't ask any more questions.

"Of course not. If there is any misunderstanding, I can explain it to you. First of all, I didn't want to come here, but your people recommended me to come here, so you don't want to hear the old peacock's long speeches from my mouth; secondly, the main purpose of my coming here is not to play billiards. Of course, if we can reach an agreement, it is not impossible to let me play the game." Su Feng was also very straightforward, explaining his position straight to the point.

"If you don't play ball, then what are you doing here?" Uncle Cai immediately became vigilant.

"I believe you have heard about my level of billiards from Brother Li Gang. Since he wants me to come and you agree, it means that you still trust Brother Li Gang's vision. This also indirectly shows that I should be qualified to play here. Am I right?" Su Feng said calmly.

"Yes, it is indeed not easy to find a high-level player now, but it doesn't mean that we can't find anyone else except you, so don't be too pretentious, little guy." Uncle Cai's face turned cold, and he disliked Su Feng's arrogance. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
