Chapter 26: This Round Doesn’t Count, Let’s Have Another Round!
The next day, Welsh went to school as usual.
He found that he was starting to like the feeling of being in school.
Thinking of what happened the day before, he walked directly to Emily and asked, “How is it? Have you found the herbs?”
Hearing Welsh’s words, Emily showed a troubled expression and took out a drawing.
“Most of them have been found, but this thing called the blood orchid of life hasn’t been found. We’ve faxed the picture you drew to all over the world to ask around, but no one can recognize it…”
Welsh took the picture and looked at it. Come to think about it, the blood orchid of life was rare even on the Lancaster Continent. Therefore, it was possible that there was no such thing on Aquamarine…
Holding the picture, Welsh pondered for a moment and said, “Then I’ll think about whether there is anything that can replace it.”
After saying that, Welsh fell into deep thought. Holding the picture, he started to wander aimlessly in the school.
Emily saw Welsh in this state and knew that he needed to calm down, so she did not choose to follow him and disturb him.
“Good…”
“So amazing!”
As Welsh walked, he was suddenly awakened by a burst of cheers. He ignored them and continued to walk in another direction.
Welsh suddenly felt a huge force hit him while he was walking. This time, Welsh completely walked out of his thoughts.
He wanted to see what had hit him, but when he turned around, he realized that it was actually a soccer ball that had hit him.
Then he looked around.
A group of men in cheerleading outfits were watching the women on the field playing football with full concentration.
At this time, someone on the football team saw the ball next to a man, so they all began to shout, “Hey, kick the ball over!”
Welsh glanced at them indifferently, and with a volley of his feet, he sent the football back.
Seeing the football fly back, everyone returned to their previous state and began to kick the ball, cheering for the team. Only the most delicate-looking and the slimmest woman put down the football after looking at Welsh’s appearance and ran toward him.
As she ran, she shouted for others to take her place and continue to play.
The woman ran five or six meters away from Welsh and shouted, “Hey, Welsh.”
Welsh turned around and looked at her with a puzzled face. “You know me?”
The woman revealed a bright and sunny smile. “You are the school’s best, of course I know you. To be more precise, almost all the girls in the school know you.”
The woman reached out her hand and revealed a bright smile. “Let’s get to know each other. My name is Celia. I’m the captain of the school football team.”
She pointed at the football field behind her and asked, “Do you want to learn to play football? I can teach you…”
Welsh, who did not want to cause trouble, rejected her directly. “No.”
“Uh…” As she did not expect Welsh to reject her so decisively, Celia was obviously stunned for a moment. Finally, she revealed a puzzled expression. “If you don’t want to play football, then what are you doing on the football field?”
Welsh said calmly, “I’m just taking a walk.”
Just as Welsh was about to leave immediately, Celia’s words stunned him.
“Eh? The drawing on this paper is so unique. I think I’ve seen it somewhere before.”
Welsh immediately stopped himself from turning around. He turned his head to look at Celia in front of him.
“You’ve seen it before? Where have you seen it before?”
Celia rolled her eyes when she heard Welsh’s anxious tone. The corners of her mouth curled up as she said, “I’ve seen the thing on this piece of paper, but I can’t tell you directly.”
Welsh looked Celia up and down.
Thinking of how Emily’s family was not short of money, she would definitely be willing to spend this money to cure her mother. Welsh said, “What do you want? Money?”
Hearing Welsh’s guess, Celia was stunned for a moment and said somewhat angrily, “I don’t want money. I want you to play a game with me. If you win, I’ll tell you where I’ve seen this thing before.”
Hearing this condition, Welsh was stunned. “It’s that simple?”
“Of course it’s not that simple.” She reached out her hand and pinched Welsh’s thin chin. “I’ll tell you if you win. But if you lose…”
Celia’s face got closer and closer. When she said the last sentence, Welsh felt her warm breath on his ear.
“You have to agree to be my boyfriend.”
Welsh looked at the football next to him and then looked at Celia in front of him. Without thinking, he immediately agreed. “Okay, how do you want to play?”
Hearing that Welsh agreed to her condition, Celia almost could not suppress the ecstasy in her heart.
After a long time, then she opened her mouth to talk about the rules of playing football.
“Do you know the basketball bullfight? We are similar. One person attacks and one person defends. From the middle line, whoever kicks the ball into the goal wins. How about it? Simple and brutal…”
It was indeed simple enough.
Welsh nodded to show that he had no problem.
Seeing that the two of them looked like they were going to play, the people in the stadium came out one after another and made way for them.
The two of them walked to the middle line. Celia kicked the football in front of Welsh.
“Men first. I’ll let you play first.”
When Welsh heard this, not only did he not thank her, but he looked at her deeply.
“Okay, then don’t regret it.”
With that, Welsh immediately moved his feet and took the football away in the blink of an eye.
Celia saw Welsh suddenly disappear in front of her and was stunned for a long time.
When she looked back, Welsh was almost at the goal!
Celia only reacted at this time and quickly picked up her feet to chase.
In the end, she caught up, but the ball had already been shot out by Welsh.
Celia turned around and was stunned.
The ball actually flew up in an arc and directly entered the goal!
Welsh placed one hand on his forehead and looked into the distance. He said in surprise, “I didn’t expect it. It actually entered the goal.”
When Celia heard Welsh’s words, her face turned red to her neck. She said angrily out of embarrassment, “This round doesn’t count. Let’s do it again.”
Welsh raised his eyebrows. “Are you going to break your promise?”
