Chapter 41 - What Did You Think It Was?

Gu Nanyu was stunned for a second before coming to her senses. Ling Xiuqi doesn't even know I'm a girl, how is it possible for him to ask about my breasts?

Did he mean play ball?

As Gu Nanyu was doubting herself, Ling Xiuqi repeated the question.

"Do you know how to play basketball?"

Just then, Gu Nanyu realized she had it the wrong way earlier.

"O...oh, you mean basketball." Gu Nanyu was silently awkward.

"What did you think it was then?" Ling Xiuqi arched his eyebrow.

"No...nothing. It's nothing…"

Ling Xiuqi had no idea why Gu Nanyu was looking weird, but now he was one person short and could not find anyone at such short notice, so he asked her again, "We're one person short now. The match is starting soon and I cannot really get anyone right now. Do you know how to play basketball?"

"I do…" watch other people play.

That was all she managed to utter before getting dragged by Ling Xiuqi.

"As long as you can play. Get him a jersey and introduce him to the members. He will replace Er Pang's position."

"Alright, Brother Ling."

Gu Nanyu could not even finish her sentence, and she was dragged into the room to get changed.

Once she went inside, Ling Xiuqi took out a jersey and tossed it to her.

"Quick, change into this. The match is starting soon."

"But I…" Gu Nanyu was just about to explain when someone patted her shoulder.

"Okay, stop complaining like a girl. If we are short on players, we won't be qualified for the match."

Gu Nanyu looked at the team members. In the end, she gulped and asked, "I suck at this, will I drag the team down?"

The one who patted her on the shoulder just now said smilingly, "Look who we got on our team. Brother Ling is here, so we have nothing to fear. He will carry us through this."

That's a relief.

Gu Nanyu heaved a sigh of relief.

She felt pressured, thinking that she would be at fault if they were to lose because of her ineptitude later.

She was relieved knowing that Ling Xiuqi was competent.

Everyone was asking her to change, saying that all of them were boys here. She just needed to take her clothes off and change into the jersey.

Gu Nanyu could easily strip and say she was flat-chested in front of Fu Beichen. but she was embarrassed in front of these people.

After all, Fu Beichen had seen, done, and touched everything in her past life. She did not need to hide in front of him.

But now...

Gu Nanyu took the jersey and tossed it aside before saying.

"This jersey is too big and the shorts are too baggy. I'll surely have a wardrobe malfunction on the court."

The clothes were indeed too baggy and Gu Nanyu could not wear them.

The match was starting soon. Ling Xiuqi looked at Gu Nanyu and said, "Leave it then. There's no rule saying that you must wear a jersey anyway."

Upon hearing that, Gu Nanyu let out a sense of relief.

Someone was asking the players to go to the court now. Gu Nanyu tagged along behind the others.

She had a limited understanding of basketball. All she knew were 'Wow! He looks awesome!', 'Wow! Score again!' and 'Wow! I give full marks for that move!'.

Everything else was a mystery to her.

She had watched some of Ling Xiuqi's matches back then because she used to have a crush on him. However, Gu Nanyu truly did not know much about the rules in court.

Now that all the players were there, the referee threw the ball up after blowing the whistle.

Being the nearest to the ball, Gu Nanyu grabbed it out of reflex.
