Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Chapter 166 - Utterly Humiliated (2)

"Feifei, how could you say that?!" Xi Qian exclaimed. "Don't you know what others called you and Ye Mingyu ever since she came here? Everyone deemed her as some immortal fairy and you, as an evil witch. How could you say that you and Ye Mingyu are the same?"

Su Xiaofei could only smile in response. She didn't have the heart to come clean to her own best friend. Unlike Lu Qingfeng, who was able to see through her facade, Su Xiaofei wasn't certain if Xi Qian would be able to understand her ways.

Xi Qian had an upright and frank personality, so if she was made aware of what was truly in Su Xiaofei's wicked heart, Su Xiaofei wasn't sure if Xi Qian wouldn't find her repulsive.

Su Xiaofei and Ye Mingyu were obviously pretentious people. They both had to put on a facade as they set up intricate schemes in order to achieve their end, albeit completely different, goals.

"Is that so?" Su Xiaofei smiled as she looked at Xi Qian's face. "Xi Qian, although you knew how other people perceived me, you remained as my friend."

"Because I know that you wouldn't do something so reckless unless you are provoked or are trying to protect yourself." Xi Qian replied. "With that short temper of yours, it's easy for you to make an enemy out of someone. However, these days, you are calmer and much more agreeable. You don't seek trouble, but people like Ye Mingyu and Feng Xue'er are continuously testing your patience. How can you not be annoyed with their repeated actions? If anything, it was their fault for provoking you."

Su Xiaofei didn't say more and glued her eyes on Lu Qingfeng on the court. Lu Qingfeng was the one holding the ball while Cai Lin was in the defense position. Lu Qingfeng was dribbling the ball with his right hand, paying attention to Cai Lin's body movements.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Qingfeng surged forward as he jab stepped to the right and faked a dribble. However, when Cai Lin took the bait, he suddenly turned to the opposite side, shooting the ball with a fade away shot, not entering the three-point line.

Cai Lin was stunned and watched the ball leave Lu Qingfeng's hands and make an arch above him until it dropped straight through the basket, effectively giving Lu Qingfeng a two-point lead. The cheering of the girls from the audience area snapped him out of his shock and he narrowed his eyes on his opponent.

Since the point system they agreed on allowed them to get a point when a shot was made inside the three-point line and two points if it was made outside the line, Lu Qingfeng was automatically in the lead.

Lu Qingfeng was able to use the jab step to trick him. The jab step was a fundamental skill that needed a lot of practice and experience. The skill provides a player with the ability to read their opponent's defense and react based on their body position and tendencies.

Cai Lin had heard things about Lu Qingfeng, but he didn't expect the young man's reputation to precede him. Since Lu Qingfeng had managed to score two points, Cai Lin was eager to get even with his opponent.

Now, Lu Qingfeng was on the defensive side. When playing one-on-one, a player would need to guard his opponent by himself, with no one to slide over and help. It would expose one's weakness on defense, if one had any.

However, Cai Lin didn't know why, but he felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. Lu Qingfeng looked like an Asura, waiting to make a kill. One could easily mistake him for a devil's incarnate. To think that this young junior would be able to intimidate him like this, Cai Lin naturally couldn't accept it.

But in the face of a talented person, someone like Cai Lin was proven to be mediocre as their one-on-one game went on. It was as if Lu Qingfeng could predict all his movements and every strategy he had in mind.

As Lu Qingfeng stole the ball from his hand for the third time, Cai lin was visibly angered. It wasn't just about defending Ye Mingyu's honor anymore, but to protect his reputation as the basketball team captain. However, he would never know that the young man in front of him had a mental age past his prime.

"Goodness! It's obvious that Lu Qingfeng is playing with Cai Lin. It hurts to watch Cai Lin play like this."

"That's right. It's like we are here to witness a game between a pro player and an amateur." Someone exclaimed. "This makes us think that Cai Lin's previous games were only for show."

Both were captains of their basketball teams, but one can easily tell the difference between their skills. Cai Lin wasn't able to defend and stop Lu Qingfeng from scoring. It was like a lion had hunted a rabbit, and instead of devouring it, it chose to torment it to amuse itself.

"Cai Lin took pride in his ability to play and lead their basketball team, but based on today's game, I feel like the difference between Lu Qingfeng is like heaven and earth."

The current score of 16-7 in favor of Lu Qingfeng, brewed bitterness and anger in Cai Lin's heart. After much discomposure, Cai Lin couldn't keep the smile on his face and it was now replaced with a deep scowl. He was utterly humiliated

He charged viciously towards Lu Qingfeng, forcing the young man to give way for him. However, his reckless move had caused him to receive an offensive foul, losing his chance to gain a score and instead allowing Lu Qingfeng to gain one through a free throw.

On the sidelines, Su Xiaofei cupped her chin and wondered when Lu Qingfeng would finish the game.. Cai Lin's performance in this game was not worth her time at all.
