The Cannon Fodder Doesn't Want to Return to the Rich Family (Translated)

Chapter 23

Chapter 23

Lu Shenyuan seemed to agree as he nodded slightly, "I understand; everyone makes mistakes. You just perfectly avoided all standard operations."

Lu Qi: "......"

Seeing Lu Qi's downturned expression, looking like a frostbitten eggplant, Lu Yao softened his tone and said, "Practice more, and you'll improve your skills."

Upon hearing Lu Yao's encouragement, Lu Qi instantly perked up as if injected with adrenaline.

Lu Qi: "Let's start another game."

Lu Shenyuan chuckled lightly and then addressed the camera, "That's it for today's stream. Everyone can go do what they need to do."

【Wait! Just one game, and you call that a stream? You barely streamed anything!】

【QAQ, stream a bit longer, aren't you going to keep playing?】

【Wait! I want to see what the little nephew looks like!】

【Crying, I haven't seen what the little nephew looks like yet!】

【+1, I feel like a guy with such a nice voice must look good too.】

【Hahaha, I want to see the goofy mid-lane nephew.】

【Looking at Lu Shen's appearance, their family genes must be excellent.】

【AWSL, just imagining, he seems like my future boyfriend's appearance.】

【Please show the little nephew's face before ending the stream!】

Seeing the discussions in the comments, Lu Shenyuan raised an eyebrow, "Don't think about it. He's too handsome. I'm afraid you'll all use that standard to find a boyfriend and end up single forever."

Ignoring the cries of the viewers, Lu Shenyuan coldly closed the stream.

Despite his disdain for Lu Qi's poor skills, Lu Shenyuan and Lu Yao still included him in the next two games.

After they left their room, Lu Shenyuan took out his phone, which he had turned off earlier.

As soon as he turned it on, a call came in from their neighboring club's support captain, Shi Ye.

As soon as Lu Shenyuan answered, Shi Ye's voice came through, directly asking, "Lu Shen, has your nephew considered going pro?"

Lu Shenyuan raised an eyebrow, "Which one are you asking about?"

Shi Ye, after a moment of speechlessness, rolled his eyes and shouted, "Of course, the ADC!"

Was he trying to dig his own grave by bringing the mid-laner into the team?!

Lu Shenyuan responded with an "oh" and hung up the call immediately.

Nonsense, if he wanted to go pro, wouldn't joining their World Championship-winning club be a better choice?!

Seeing the call ended on his phone, Shi Ye, still not giving up, called again, only to find himself blocked.

Shi Ye gritted his teeth in anger, "Lu Dog, you scoundrel!"

The mid-laner standing next to him patted his shoulder with a sympathetic tone, "Get used to it, it's always been like this with Lu Dog."

Finally understanding the principle that hesitation leads to defeat, Lu Qi, over the next week, started inviting Lu Yao to do everything with him.

Although Lu Yao often declined, he did agree sometimes, such as for the current basketball game.

This period was for physical education class.

Seeing the annoying Jiang Bai approaching Lu Yao again and sitting under the shade of a tree with him, Lu Qi walked over directly. "Lu Yao, want to play basketball?"

Lu Yao stood up, looking back at Jiang Bai, "Want to join us?"

Jiang Bai shook his head with a smile, "No, you go ahead."

Lu Qi, the president of the basketball club, was already very skilled at basketball, and Lu Yao, as the new student, was very popular. It was said that when these two played a 5v5 game on the court, the class's girls all gathered around.

Lu Yao and Lu Qi were on different teams.

Because it was his first time playing a match with Lu Yao, Lu Qi was unusually excited today and constantly sought to go 1v1 with Lu Yao.

After receiving a pass from a teammate, Lu Yao quickly moved toward the opponent's basket to initiate an attack.

Lu Qi spread his arms wide, trying to block Lu Yao's attack.

As the game progressed, both were drenched in sweat.

Noticing that Lu Qi liked to use his body to overpower opponents, Lu Yao avoided confronting him directly and instead used a clever passing fake to trick him. He then jumped and took a shot.

At the peak of his jump, a bead of sweat fell from his forehead, sliding into his right eye.

Feeling the intense sting in his right eye and unable to open it, Lu Yao closed that eye, tilted his body slightly backward, and took a steady shot.

The basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air.

"Swish."

A beautiful three-pointer!

Lu Yao's teammates ran over smiling and gave him high-fives.

Seeing Lu Yao's performance, the girls on the sidelines began whispering.

"He looks so cool when he shoots!"

"Hahaha, it's probably because he's good-looking."

"He gives off a sports anime protagonist vibe."

"But don't you think Lu Qi and Lu Yao's names sound a bit similar?"

Chu Jiaojiao turned to the girl who spoke, "Stop guessing, don't accidentally bring trouble to others."

The Lu family is influential, and many people want to get close to them each year. If Lu Qi hears these comments and misunderstands Lu Yao's intentions, it could cause trouble.

Hearing Chu Jiaojiao's reprimand, the girls stopped discussing the topic.

When Jiang Bai suddenly walked over to Lu Yao, who was standing at the edge of the court, some of the spectators also shifted their attention to them.
