#49 - Chapter 49: Lin Chen is so good at basketball?
Lin Chen arrived at the sports center as quickly as possible.
At this time, the last quarter of the game had already started for two minutes.
The score difference had reached twenty-two points.
“Timeout!”
Seeing Lin Chen arrive, the vice-captain Xu Dong decisively called a timeout.
“Mommy.”
“So many people.”
Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice.
Xu Mengyao took Lin Xiaoqian from Lin Chen's arms.
“Lin Chen, there are only ten minutes left, are you still going to play?”
Xu Mengyao said softly.
It was too difficult to catch up with a twenty-two point deficit.
Lin Chen smiled and said, “Participation is key. I'm already here, so I, as the captain, definitely have to go up and get some exercise.”
“Xiaoqian, cheer for Daddy.”
Lin Xiaoqian nodded repeatedly.
Lin Chen entered the court, and one of the players from Team One stepped down. Xu Dong and the remaining four looked at Lin Chen with joy. Their confidence soared with Lin Chen's arrival.
Lin Chen smiled and said, “Xu Dong, pass the ball to me more often. Let's try our best to catch up. Maybe there's still hope.”
“Okay!”
Xu Dong and the others nodded.
The ball was in Lin Chen's team's possession.
Xu Dong and the others passed the ball to Lin Chen as soon as possible.
“Daddy, go go duck!”
Lin Xiaoqian shouted loudly.
Lin Chen quickly dribbled the ball towards the opponent's half of the court. The opponent's captain, Wang Kai, intercepted Lin Chen outside the three-point line.
However, Lin Chen instantly accelerated and broke through directly past him.
“So fast.”
The thought flashed through Wang Kai's mind.
“Bang!”
Just as he turned around to return to defense, the sound of a dunk rang out. Lin Chen had already given them a slam dunk.
Two points scored.
The gap narrowed to twenty points.
Less than ten seconds had passed from Lin Chen entering the court to scoring.
“Holy crap, a dunk!”
“Go, go!”
Many people watched Lin Chen in shock and shouted desperately.
“Lin Chen is so amazing.”
Xu Mengyao stared blankly at Lin Chen.
“Everyone, don't panic, stay steady. We're leading by twenty points, and basketball is not a one-man sport.”
Wang Kai said in a deep voice.
They quickly organized an attack.
However, Xu Dong and the others were like they had been injected with chicken blood. They defended very tightly. One of the players passed the ball, and Lin Chen quickly intercepted it.
“Daddy go, Daddy go!”
Lin Xiaoqian shouted energetically.
Lin Chen sped towards the opposite side with the ball.
Lin Chen jumped and shot while still outside the three-point line.
“Swish!”
The basketball went into the net cleanly, a three-pointer.
He also tricked the opposing player into a shooting foul.
Without a doubt, Lin Chen made the free throw.
The score between the two sides was suddenly narrowed to only sixteen points.
At this time, Lin Chen had not been on the court for a full minute.
“Mommy, is Daddy the most amazing?”
Lin Xiaoqian said excitedly.
“Yes.”
Xu Mengyao nodded.
This was a fact.
Time passed by, and Lin Chen's opponents tried desperately to stabilize, but the gap continued to narrow.
With two minutes left.
“Bang!”
Accompanied by another dunk from Lin Chen, the score was tied.
Next, Lin Chen and his team unsurprisingly took the lead.
“Beep beep--”
The final whistle sounded.
The final score was fixed at fifty-two to forty-seven.
“Captain, you're too awesome.”
“Captain, you were hiding a lot of your strength yesterday.”
“Captain——”
Xu Dong and the others were extremely excited.
“Brother Lin, we lost fair and square.”
Lin Chen's opponents, Wang Kai and others, said one after another.
They were not angry about being reversed by Lin Chen. Xu Mengyao was the president, and Lin Chen was Xu Mengyao's husband!
“You guys played well too.”
Lin Chen smiled slightly.
He walked towards Xu Mengyao and Lin Xiaoqian.
“Daddy, you're the best. I'll give you a kiss.”
Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice.
Lin Chen shook his head: “Xiaoqian, no. Daddy has sweat on his face, so you can't kiss Daddy right now.”
“Daddy, what about Mommy?”
“Can Mommy kiss you?”
Lin Xiaoqian asked in confusion.
Xu Mengyao knocked on Lin Xiaoqian's head: “Mommy can't either. Doesn't Mommy need to be hygienic?”
Lin Xiaoqian giggled: “Daddy, then we'll kiss you when we get back.”
“Okay.”
Lin Chen said with a chuckle.
Zhao Tianyou's Team Seven was competing upstairs.
Team Seven also won.
He performed very well individually, scoring twenty-one points.
“Did that grandson Lin Chen play? What's his level like?”
Zhao Tianyou asked one of his cronies.
This crony of his did not watch his game, but was instead watching Lin Chen's game on the first floor.
He quickly ran upstairs after the game.
“Boss, the situation is not good.”
Zhao Tianyou's crony said.
“What's wrong?”
Zhao Tianyou frowned slightly.
“Boss, Lin Chen only came on in the last ten minutes. They were originally far behind, but after Lin Chen came on, he scored twenty-three points in ten minutes.”
“Their team reversed the score and won.”
Zhao Tianyou couldn't believe it: “How is that possible? How could he score more than twenty points in ten minutes?”
“Boss, that's how it is.”
“He's too strong, far exceeding the others. He made four out of five three-point shots, and he can also dunk.”
Zhao Tianyou was dumbfounded.
Lin Chen scored twenty-three points in ten minutes, while he only scored twenty-one points in the entire game. This was very embarrassing.
Scoring twenty-one points in a single game was strong, but it was scary to compare.
He didn't care about the rewards.
What he wanted was to crush Lin Chen and win Xu Mengyao's heart.
What should he do now?
“Did you record a video?”
“I did.”
Soon Zhao Tianyou watched several videos, and he was completely numb. Lin Chen's level was much stronger than his.
He felt that Lin Chen's level was good enough to play in the NBA.
“Beep beep!”
Zhao Tianyou's phone rang.
It was his dad calling. Zhao Huaiyuan was not at the company at this time.
“Son, well done.”
“I received your game results. Keep it up.”
Zhao Huaiyuan's voice came over the phone after the call was connected.
“Dad, it's useless.”
Zhao Tianyou said bitterly.
“What's useless?”
“Dad, that son of a bitch Lin Chen is too strong. I scored twenty-one points in the whole game, and he scored twenty-three points in ten minutes.”
Zhao Huaiyuan on the other end of the phone was stunned.
He usually watched basketball games, and he knew the gap in between.
He never expected that he would fail before even meeting?
“Tianyou, don't be discouraged yet.”
“The next game is a showdown between your two teams. Even if you lose, you have to lose with dignity. His parents are farmers, so you still have a great advantage in other aspects.”
Zhao Huaiyuan said in a deep voice.
“I know.”
Zhao Tianyou went to the lounge after hanging up the phone.
The next game was in an hour, and he had to try his best to recover.
Fifty minutes passed, and Zhao Tianyou and others went to the first floor.
They would compete with Lin Chen and his team on the first floor.
“Lin Chen, I watched the video. You are very powerful.”
Zhao Tianyou said to Lin Chen with a smile.
Lin Chen looked at Zhao Tianyou. Zhao Tianyou had a smile on his face, but he could clearly perceive the hostility in Zhao Tianyou's eyes.
“It's okay, basic skill.”
Lin Chen said lightly.
Zhao Tianyou: “……”
“Lin Chen, but there's a small problem with what you did. Basketball is a team sport. You perform alone, and the rest of the players all become your foils.”
“You also have to give the others a chance.”
Zhao Tianyou looked like he was thinking of the others.
Xu Mengyao frowned beside him: “Zhao Tianyou, don't you think this is stupid? There are only ten minutes left.”
“Is this the time to be modest?”
Lin Chen said with a smile: “Wife is right.”
