Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again
Chapter 507 - 191: Nanaz’s Proposed Reward Conditions (Part 3)
"Just one thing: fight hard on the rebounds, and we’ll definitely win!"
Li Chunhua summed up the key points succinctly.
"What if they double-team us too?"
One of the girls asked.
"Then just get the ball to Nanaz. I’ve taught her a special move; she knows how to handle it!"
Su Zelin said confidently.
Nanaz has been taught the secret dribbling move to break through tight defenses by yours truly!
She can handle the ball.
You know, this move is really effective against double-teaming.
Referees in girls’ basketball matches tend to call less fouls; double-dribbling is common enough.
If they called it strictly, the game would be fragmented and couldn’t go on, with hundreds of whistles able to make the referees’ throat hoarse.
As long as the offense doesn’t run with the ball without dribbling and the defense doesn’t pull hair or fight, referees will usually turn a blind eye.
"Nanaz, what special move did the captain teach you?"
The female team members were quite curious.
"Uh, well..."
Though a term from basketball slang, Ding Linna found it a bit awkward to express this technique’s name.
"When dribbling, always watch the opponent, and if more than one comes over, back off before the double-team is complete. If you’re really cornered, you can dribble with both hands if necessary, because in the chaos, the referee won’t notice such details."
Nanaz decided to explain it vaguely.
"Oh, that’s how it is!"
None of the girls suspected anything more.
Yet one of the female team members asked, "Captain, isn’t it allowed to dribble with both hands already?"
Su Zelin: "..."
Alright, that’s girls’ basketball for you.
Having enough players to play is good enough; don’t be too demanding.
The referee’s whistle blew, and the game began.
With girls’ basketball, although it’s not particularly skillful, the scene is quite lively.
Wherever the ball goes, the players swarm like bees, with positions not really existing.
Sometimes while scrambling for the ball, shoving, pulling jerseys, tugging arms, and even grabbing thighs aren’t rare.
Even if it lacks technical precision, everyone watched with great interest, with both sides’ cheerleaders constantly cheering.
The referee barely blew the whistle, having grown accustomed to it.
In the end, Financial Management Class One won triumphantly.
The final score was 32:24.
Indeed, for a girls’ basketball game, this score is quite usual.
After all, it’s a clash of the amateurs.
It could even be considered a relatively high score.
Some games even have single-digit scores.
"Ladies, you’ve worked hard!"
As the girls came off the court, Li Chunhua and the other cheerleaders offered water to celebrate their victorious return.
"Nanaz, how about that special move of mine, pretty awesome, eh?"
Su Zelin and Ding Linna high-fived, offering a bottle of water while basking in the glory.
This game, Nanaz was undoubtedly the key player, contributing half the points.
"Alright, this victory owes a lot to our Coach Su too."
Nanaz opened the water, took a sip, capped it, and smiled brightly, "Captain, can we negotiate something?"
"Oh, let’s hear it?"
"If our class’s female basketball team makes it to the top ten in this school sports meet, you’ll promise me something as a reward!"
"What is it?"
Su Zelin pondered.
Don’t tell me she wants me to reward her with a date.
As a principled guy, how can I allow that...
"Teach me to drive!"
"Uh, driving lessons..."
Su Zelin was a bit surprised, "That’s it?"
"What else?"
Ding Linna rolled her eyes at him.
This guy, he must have been daydreaming.
"Well, I thought you’d ask for a more advanced reward. Learning to drive is simple; all you have to do is ask!"
"But you can’t just teach me casually, you have to make sure I can drive on the highway type of well!"
Nanaz covered her mouth and laughed.
"Alright, got it."
Su Zelin nodded.
He was already thinking about teaching Xiaoliu to drive sometime.
Didn’t expect Nanaz to be the one to bring it up first.
Though not a capable little assistant, friends are friends, so it’s all good.
"Okay, but I’m usually free in the evenings lately."
"No worries, evenings work too, let’s settle on that happily then!"
"..."
