Love So Sweet

738 Focused on Fu Chen

Bai Xi Xi and Lin Xiao Tong took a cab and headed to the venue where the basketball match was going to be held.

When they arrived, Bai Xi Xi noticed that a lot of people had arrived at the venue. Most of the boys came to the venue to watch the match between Y City High School and Y City West. They came from other teams that wanted to observe their potential opponent in the next round.

Last time, Y City High School had a friendly match against Y City West. This time, they are meeting again in this tournament in their first round. Naturally, Yang Xu and the others were anxious.

There were not many people present during their friendly match. Therefore, not many knew that Y City High School had lost against Y City West.

It would be such an embarrassment if they lost this match again.

Yang Xu has been very tense from the beginning. He kept on reminding his teammates of what they were supposed to do.

When Bai Xi Xi and Lin Xiao Tong reached their seat, Yang Xu was still giving his teammates a long talk. Bai Xi Xi shifted her gaze to Fu Chen who was at the side with the rest of his teammates.

She observed his expression and was glad that he did not seem to be tense.

“Xi Xi, do you think that our school is going to win this match?” Lin Xiao Tong asked She adjusted her skirt and put down her bag on her lap.

.....

“It depends...” Bai Xi Xi narrowed her eyes as she observed the opponent’s team.

“On what?”

“On whether everyone could work as a team.”

Lin Xiao Tong pursed her lips into a thin line. The last time Bai Xi Xi was helping Fu Chen to compete against Yang Xu’s team, Lin Xiao Tong already learned a little bit about basketball.

These days, she would no longer be in a daze whenever her boyfriend would talk about basketball.

Bai Xi Xi scanned her surroundings to observe the place.

A satisfied smile appeared on her face, knowing that they both got a perfect spot. They were very close to the court and had a clear view of the match.

Then, Bai Xi Xi turned to look at Lin Xiao Tong again and noticed that her friend was pulling out a few snacks from her small backpack.

There were a few snacks resting on her friend’s lap, but Lin Xiao Tong continued to pull out a few more snacks.

Noticing that her friend was looking at her, Lin Xiao Tong lifted the chocolate bar in her hand and asked, “Xi Xi, would you like some?”

“Xiao Tong, are you Doraemon? How did you pull out a lot of snacks from your bag?”

Lin Xiao Tong followed Bai Xi Xi’s line of gaze and laughed sheepishly. “The match will take a long time, right? I’m afraid that we both would be hungry. Therefore, I bought a little something for you as well.” She took Bai Xi Xi’s hand and placed the chocolate bar in it. “If this isn’t enough, you can ask for more. I still have a few more snacks in my bag.”

Bai Xi Xi thanked her friend. She unwrapped the chocolate bar and ate it slowly while waiting for the match to start.

At the center of the basketball court, the referee was seen talking to both captains of the basketball teams. Their coach was nearby to listen to the referee’s words.

After a while, both captains from the respective teams went back to their teams to brief them on the referee’s words.

Bai Xi Xi sat up straight, knowing that the match would start very soon.

Then, the basketball team entered the basketball court and get to their position.

Fu Chen lowered his head as he tried to compose himself. Then, he raised his head and saw the familiar figure sitting among the crowd.

His movement halted. Bai Xi Xi was dressed in a simple shirt and jeans. However, Fu Chen thought that this girl was the brightest of the people around her.

Happiness surged in his heart, knowing that Bai Xi Xi came to the venue to watch his game just as she had promised.

The anxiousness in his heart quickly disappeared when he saw the girl. Although he could not see her face from a distance, Fu Chen could already imagine Bai Xi Xi with her calm face as she watched the game.

Slowly, Fu Chen raised his hand and waved in Bai Xi Xi’s direction.

However, before he could give her a proper wave, someone slapped him on his shoulder snapping him out of his trance.

Fu Chen was about to scold that person when he realized that the person was no other than Yang Xu. His face stiffened.

“What are you looking at?” Yang Xu asked. He followed Fu Chen’s line of gaze, but could not figure out what was Fu Chen looking at earlier. “Pay attention. If you don’t play properly, I will kick you out of this team.”

Fu Chen frowned when he heard Yang Xu’s threat again. “I know. You don’t have to worry about this. I will do my best.”

However, Fu Chen knew that even if he do his best, it would be very difficult for the team to win the game if the teammates were not cooperating well.

Yang Xu looked Fu Chen up and down. Then, he finally walked over to the center before the match would begin.

Everyone went to their position.

Soon, the whistle was blown and the match began.

The sound of the basketball against the floor was loud.

Bai Xi Xi watched as everyone started to run on the basketball court to chase after the ball.

Her hands tightened into fists. Bai Xi Xi could feel her heartbeat speeding up as she watched everyone on the basketball court.

Her eyes were especially focused on Fu Chen.

Bai Xi Xi might not like the basketball team that much. But for Fu Chen, she hoped that the team would do their best and win the first game.
