Chapter 92 Compromise

  A crowd of screaming people, phones held high, shards of broken glass scattered all over the ground, students frozen in place on the basketball court, a bouncing ball that won't stop, a deflated rubber tire, and Li Luyu walking slowly towards them.

  Luoke's enemy watched this scene, feeling his eyelids twitching violently.

  If he had witnessed Chamberlain, Dawkins and O'Neil perform like this in person, Rock would have been just as excited as everyone else, shouting loudly, but now he won't.

  Li Luoyu was unknown by name.

  Li Rouyou was just a little shorter than himself by one head.

  Li Luyu can't even be said to know how to play basketball.

  He had never heard of this person before.

  He never thought that the momentum that shook the whole scene just now would make his legs weak.

  He never thought that National University hid a freak who could smash backboards!

  Even though Kokufu University has always been a place where talented people gather.

  Who is he? He is Luo Ke's enemy, the number one player of Guofu University basketball team, and also the number one in the university student basketball mobilization in Zhonghai City. Since high school, he has made a name for himself and was praised by the coach of the Zhonghai City basketball team.

  He even received invitations from several professional basketball teams at this year's Universiade.

  But now seeing Li Luoyu walking over, Luo Ke Di involuntarily held his breath. As a power forward, he was very clear what kind of strength that was. On the court, there wasn't anyone who could stop someone with such explosive power.

  Dangerous, powerful, dominant, such a player exists on the field, completely controlling the atmosphere, rhythm, and outcome of the game.

  At least in China, such a freak should not appear in China, but in the NBA, which is a holy place for basketball players like the United States.

  "It's your turn. Whoever misses the shot first loses and apologizes." Li Ruyou walked up to Luo Ke, saying word by word: "Then apologize."

  Luoke's enemy looked at the broken glass on the ground, forced a smile and said: "How can we play now? Even if you have the strength, do you need to use it like this? It's scary!"

  "We can change courts." Li Luyu didn't need to give Luoke the chance to take advantage of the slope, and it was also him who had been pressing in just now.

  "What if you break another backboard?" Rokkaku spread his hands, then turned around to chuckle with his teammates.

  Zhao Jingyang couldn't laugh at this time, he already knew that Li Luyou had held back earlier. Someone who could smash a basketball to pieces, couldn't they also crush a person's head?

  What's more, the dunk just now was really too powerful. Li Luyu walked over and even gave off a more oppressive aura than Luo Ke Di, making one's legs tremble with fear.

  "Are you done?" Li Luyu has always been one to stand by his principles, admitting when he's wrong and apologizing first to maintain friendships and relationships.

  But he was never used to being so cautious with his words, evasively avoiding the issue.

  "What can you do?" Luo Ke's enemy fell silent for a moment, he didn't need to come on stage anymore. Maybe he would be considered afraid of comparing with Li Luyu, but at least there was still a chance to turn the tables and argue back. If they really compared, that would be a clear victory or defeat, without any opportunity to salvage his reputation.

  "They apologized. The backboard, you or the school basketball team will pay for it." The price of the backboard was unknown to Li Luoyu, but it definitely wasn't cheap. Li Luoyu was often willing to spend money, but he absolutely didn't like to waste money.

  "Hey, that's enough! You're the one who smashed the backboard!" Zhao Jingyang stood behind Luo Ke, finally gathering some courage. He thought to himself that this time, their captain was probably doomed, and who knows, he might even shift his anger onto them. At least by speaking up, he could show some support for the captain, which would also improve Luo Ke's impression of him.

  "It's up to you guys to have fun!" Li Luyu picked up a bottle of mineral water from the ground, twisted it open and took a sip, not looking at Zhao Jingyang, but staring at Luo Ke Di.

  "Alright." Luo Ke turned around, his face black with anger. "Zhao Jingyang, apologize!"

  "Captain, but..." Zhao Jingyang would never agree?

  "Apologize to me!" Roke almost shouted, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes. If it were any other day, Zhao Jingyang and the others wouldn't have dared to retort. Li Luyu's violent dunk had greatly diminished Roke's prestige in their minds.

  "We were wrong in this matter, please forgive us."

  "Sorry."

  "Excuse me..."

  Li Rouyou finally apologized and was held back by Zhao Jingyang.

  "What else do you want?" Zhao Jingyang said with a stiff neck.

  "Don't you know where you're wrong?" Li Luyou looked at him with disdain, pointing his finger at Zhao Jingyang's chest and pushing him away: "If you were a man, you should remember not to bully girls... I want you to apologize to her, but does she even care about your apology?"

  Zhao Jingyang's whole body was trembling, but he was pulled by Luo Ke's enemy and shouted: "Go!"

  The school basketball team left, and the crowd dispersed. A few people wanted to rush over and talk to Li Luyu, but the atmosphere was still a bit tense at this time, and they were also pulled away by their companions. The sound of "thud thud" of the ball hitting the ground echoed on the basketball court again.

  Five people and the water-selling girl were still standing together, the water-selling girl was apparently still in a state of shock and hadn't come to her senses yet. She had probably never thought that she would become the fuse for such a conflict, she just wanted to sell some water to make a living.

  "Li Luyu, you're really something!" Sun Yangqing was delighted. This bunch of kids actually slunk away with their tails between their legs, admitting defeat. If it were him, Sun Yangqing, he would never admit defeat, and would fight to the end.

  "Hey, if he uses just one-tenth of this skill to deal with An Zhi Shui, he can definitely subdue him completely." The contrast was too astonishing, and Qin Nan felt that he couldn't bear it anymore. He thought about how among his brothers, Li Luoye was the only one who could stand up for himself, yet he pretended to be a good guy in front of An Zhi Shui.

  "What a pity Ahn knows that water is not here, otherwise he would have shouted for Li Luyu to come and talk now." Yuzi smiled again.

  "Li Luyu, Sun Yangqing, Qin Nan, Liu Ziyue." Madrid had a fight and was worried that his image was almost ruined, but instead he relaxed and introduced himself to the girl, "I'm Madrid."

  The girl shrank back slightly, looking at the group with some curiosity, "Just now they were so fierce and powerful, how dare you rush up to fight!"

  She had no idea what was going on in those people's minds, the basketball team members were all so tall, and yet they all had ordinary builds, especially that Sun Yangqing, who was the shortest, but suddenly rushed in, Madrid was spotless, Qin Nan was a thin bamboo pole, the one that made people feel the most contrast was the one called Liu Ziyue, just now he was still laughing and joking like an idiot, no one expected him to kick it up.

  Looking left and right, it seems that Li can fight, but he's also no match for four hands with two fists. That Luo Ke is not bad either.

  "Friends, actually have no other use, just when fighting, each one is by your side to boost courage, even if you're beaten badly, maybe there's someone who's been beaten worse than you, as long as it doesn't feel like the most humiliating thing." Madrid burst out laughing.

  The girl also smiled and said, "My name is Mei Hua."

  Li Luyu wanted to laugh, the word "Plum Blossom" still has some connotation, after all, when you hear this word, you will think of snow-covered, proud snow and red plum blossoms, but as a name, it's really too common.

  "What a great name." Qin Nan flattered insincerely.

  "Good name." Liu Ziyue smiled directly.

  "It matches Madrid." Sun Yangqing truly felt this way.

  Madrid was furious, glaring at people with all his might, but no one paid attention to him.

  "Oh... let's go, it's time for dinner. Today Madrid is treating us, he'll give you 10 yuan." Li Luoyu took charge.

  "Never mind, forget it, hey... I still..."

  The plum blossom speech was not finished, her foam plastic box, folding stool, and textbooks placed aside were all helped to be picked up.

  Plum Blossom stomped her feet in frustration, watching them walk away. She had no choice but to follow, figuring it was a way to make some friends. These people didn't seem too bad after all.

  The next day, Li Luyu came to school and was called over by the counselor. What he did on the basketball court was too sensational, and the key point was that there was a conflict between ordinary students and the basketball team.

  "The logistics department asked you to compensate for the basketball frame, we didn't agree, and you don't need to deal with this matter yourself." As a class counselor, in such matters, it is often particularly protective of students from their own class, especially those who are poor but have excellent academic performance. University is actually a place that attaches great importance to human relationships, because for many people, this is a place where relationships can last a lifetime.

  The phone rang, and the counselor picked it up. After humming a few times, he hung up: "The basketball team's people came forward to apologize and compensate."

  "Thank you, counselor." Li Luyu felt relieved and thought that Luo Ke would not be so unscrupulous as to not even care about this matter. If he didn't, there was no way to convince others. Not helping a friend is one thing, but being unreliable with words is not glorious anywhere.

  "Don't be so impulsive in the future, young people are hot-blooded, one impulse and they'll fight, one fight and it's a bad thing, fortunately the conflict was controlled. The counselor educated Li Luyu with a serious tone, then suddenly changed the subject: "Do you want to join the school basketball team? Luo Ke is very optimistic about you, he said your physique can play professional basketball without any problem."

  "I won't participate." Li Rouyu shook his head resolutely. He had already clashed with the basketball team like this, and he still went to participate - was he afraid that he would be too comfortable?

  "Did you really shatter the backboard?" The instructor's eyes lit up a bit.

  "I don't know how it just shattered." Li Luyou actually only vented the stagnant air in his chest, if he had the heart to thoroughly explode, that basketball hoop could have been destroyed by him.

  "It's really impressive, I checked and there are only a few people in the NBA who can do this...". The counselor is not a basketball fan, but it's impossible to ignore any basketball news at all in college.

  "What a coincidence." Li Luyu continued to be modest.

  "It may attract the attention of the national team, you don't realize how sensational what you've done is. Look at the video on Youku." The instructor opens a webpage, "Look at these comments... Wow, wow, godlike, superman, fierce man, **, China's new basketball hope after Yao Ming..."

  "No way, the national team is also watching online videos?" Li Luoyu took a look and clicked on it, with over 10 million views, the title was "Chinese version of O'Neal, powerful dunk", such a title naturally attracts attention.

  "Don't you have such plans? Chinese basketball players may not make as much money as those football players, but they can still produce a Yao Ming. If you reach that level, it's also the school's pride." The instructor was just daydreaming, not actually working.

  "That's too far-fetched, I'm just a bit better at jumping and explosive power, playing basketball is still a technical job, I just have brute strength but no such luxury." Li Luoyu made a silly smile.

  "Alright, remember what I said, don't be too impulsive." The counselor nodded, this level of conflict was nothing, no need to investigate further.

  Li Rouyu walked out of the counselor's office and indeed, An Zhi Shui was not inside scolding him together, but was waiting outside instead.

  "Are you hurt?" An Zhi Shui opened his mouth and his face turned bright red as he finally spoke after some deliberation.

  "Didn't I tell you last night?" Li Luyu had received a call from An Zhi Shui the previous night, and An Zhi Shui seemed to be somewhat angry about the fight, but Li Luyu felt that he hadn't done anything wrong, so he didn't say much at the time.

  "It wasn't over the phone, I saw it with my own eyes...I won't be at ease until you tell me in person." An Zhi Shui looked at his attitude which was quite ordinary, somewhat anxious.

  "Actually, men's bodies are naturally stronger than women's, so many times they habitually use the most direct power to protect their loved ones and their own dignity. We can't support this approach, but we need to understand it." Li Rouyu seized the opportunity to instill his own ideas in An Zhi Shui, he couldn't always listen to her, friends are about mutual compromise, he compromised with An Zhi Shui a bit, and he hoped she could also compromise with him, so that their friendship can last long and be happy, if they're always being awkward, then even lifelong friendships won't be happy.

  "I understand." An Zhishui nodded.

  Li Luyu was surprised instead, what happened?
