you are all star

Chapter 16
After Pierre and the children gave Louis a burst of adoring smiles, they walked towards Neil and his son.

Peel, Anda, and Porter walked in the front side by side. Peel looked like a big brother in the underworld. Porter and Anda followed each other, followed by more than a dozen children.

They swaggered closer to Neil and his son, while continuing to praise and whisper about Louis's skills.

When Peele brought the children to the edge of the court where Louis was warming up, he raised his hand like a caller, signaling everyone to keep quiet, and he had something to say.

Potter and Anda were also busy giving winks to the friends behind, and everyone fell silent immediately, and Louis also suddenly stopped performing, staring at the white boy in a white T-shirt and shorts with hair parted in the middle, not knowing that he was going to call out What orders.

Neil saw his father stop to pay attention to the children, and his eyes moved to the children.

Peel saw that everyone was focusing on him, so he looked at Neal from the corner of his eye, and then said in a domineering and threatening tone to the children: "If you want Neal's father to teach you how to play, then you have to listen to me." of."

The children saw that he was a white man and had moved from other places. They heard that his family was rich and could not be offended. If anyone offended him, he would definitely remember it and would take revenge on him sooner or later.

So the child reluctantly nodded in response, and Louis also listened to Peel's words, which seemed to be conducive to the realization of his goal, so he didn't intervene to stop him.

Neil had already seen from Peel's glance at him that Peel's remarks seemed to be aimed at him deliberately.

Peel turned his head to look at the children again, and then said: "My dear friends, you want Papa Neal to teach you how to play?"

Without even thinking about it, the children replied repeatedly: "Yes, especially..."

"Okay, then do you want to see Neil's skills?" Peel looked at Neil, sneered, and said in a mocking voice.

When Neil said this, the children's curiosity pounced on him. Pierre was right. Neil's father played basketball so well. Neil must also play very well and must be very talented.

When each of them had such an idea in their minds, they strongly supported Pierre's proposal: "That's good, his father plays so well, so he must be very good too. After all, each of us Genes are inherited from parents."

When Louis heard this, he finally understood that Pierre was clearly aiming at Neil on purpose, so he felt a love for his son in his heart.

So, he looked at Pierre and the children and said, "Everyone, listen to me, Neil is still so young, I haven't even taught him how to play."

After hearing what Louis said, Peel immediately looked up and down Neil, and smiled at Porter and Anda, wanting to tell them that this kid Neil actually wanted to seduce us to watch his father's game show He dared to lie to us and say that the goal that beat me that day was taught by his father. It seems that we really underestimated this kid.

Neil saw that Peel was looking at him strangely, and with an incomprehensible thinking look. From the way he looked at Potter and Anda, he seemed to know that I lied to him.

Ke Neil still put on an innocent expression and stood aside without saying a word.

Peel stared at Neil with a sneer and thought for a while, then looked at Louis and said, "Uncle, do you know that your son, in order to trick me into letting the children watch you play, actually said that you taught him the goal he beat me that day?" Yes, immediately, my curiosity was seduced by him."

After hearing what Peel said, Louis finally understood why he thought that Neil couldn't handle it, but this kid could handle it. It turned out that he did it with his ingenuity and adaptability.

Louis continued to try to excuse Neil, stared at Peel and the children and said, "Then what do you want to do to him? Let me do it for you!"

Peale is the boss, so everyone listened to him, so he looked at Potter, Anda and everyone, and said with a sneer, "Uncle, you can't do this for me, because Neal even boasted that we can invite the slums if we want." Kids who play well will challenge him."

When Louis heard this, he was frightened immediately, and hurried to Neil's side, pushed him gently with his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Boy, did you really say that?"

"Dad, it's because I said that you taught me to make that shot that day, and then they said they were afraid that you weren't worth the dollar they gave you per day, so I told them that you taught me my skills. If I Does beating all the well-beaten kids in the ghetto prove you're entitled to everyone's dollar."

"Then you can't boast like that. If you really lose or get injured, not only will everything we planned before be ruined, but it will also make your parents sad, do you understand?"

"Dad, it's okay, you have to believe me, since things have come to this point, if I didn't do this at that time, they wouldn't come to see your golf show, I have no choice but to do this, it's okay, just let me try Try, I will do my best, and I will try my best not to get hurt."

After discussing in low voices, Louis and Neil expressed that they were very happy with their son's behavior, patted him on the shoulder proudly, and patted his head trustingly after all.

Seeing that Louis asked Neil himself, Pierre must have believed it, but he looked at Louis and asked back: "Uncle, you should believe it now, right?"

"I believe it. But, can we let this matter go? It's not good for anyone."

"Uncle, your game skills are really good, but since your son has made such a choice and made such a decision, we still follow the rules, because he thinks he is a different person."

"Can……"

Louis still wanted to continue to excuse his son, but Neil interrupted Louis' words at this time, and said: "Dad, you don't have to beg him like this, for the one dollar per person per day, and for me to be more like a big boy , I believe that if I can beat him once, I can beat him N times until he is convinced."

Louis stared at him with concern and concern: "But I haven't taught you how to play."

"Dad, it's because you didn't teach me that the duel between us is fair. If you only taught me but not him, then the duel between us is unfair."

"But he's two or three years older than you."

"It's okay, he has hands and feet, and so do I, and this is a one-on-one bullfight, it's about skill, there's no fairness, it's about who can put the ball in the basket."

"That's okay..."

After hearing Neil's words, Peel felt that this kid was too crazy. He thought that after he made an incredible shot that day, he really took himself seriously, and he must find some powerful golfers to kill him. prestige.

Peel pondered for a while, and after flirting with Potter, Anda, and his friends for a while, he suddenly pouted again, raised his head and looked down at Neil, sneered, and came up with some terrible idea.

Seeing him like this, Neil was very upset, so he looked at Pierre and said, "Pierre, if you have something to say, you can say it clearly. You don't have to make such contemptuous expressions and actions, it's disgusting!"

"you……"

"By the way, Neil, is it true that only children from the slums can challenge you?" Pierre then asked tentatively.

When Louis heard Pierre's question, he couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed to fight for his son: "Pierre, you are avenging your own private revenge and playing tricks, Neil, you can't promise him."

Neil, who is more than four years old, knows very well that the family is short of money, and he must solve the problem of father's making money as soon as possible, so that his mother will not be so tired, so he also calculated a condition: "Well, if I say yes, but I have to There is one condition."

"What conditions?"

"As long as you challenge me and lose to me, each person will pay one dollar a day for my dad to teach them to play without any conditions. It doesn't matter their age, as long as they are under the age, if you can promise me, I will promise you."

"You can't promise him, boy, you can't..." Louis said with tears rolling in his eyes.

After hearing Neil's condition, Peel looked at Potter again, and Anda and his friends laughed foolishly: "It's really different!"

They also laughed and nodded in response to Peel. The laughter filled the air instantly. The laughter echoed in Neil's mind and heart. Neil clenched his fists tightly, as if countless seeds of hope were sprouting.

Peel looked at everyone and laughed for a while, then nodded to Neil and said, "Okay, I promise you, even if they can't afford the money at that time, I will pay for them."

"Okay, if this is the case, I promise you too."

After listening to it from the sidelines, Louis slapped himself hard twice, muttering in a low voice: "Son, dad is useless, dad is incompetent, let you make such a decision at such a young age."

Peel looked at Louis crying bitterly, he spread his hands and shook his head, which meant that he didn't force Neil, it was him who wanted to do this, and it was no one's fault.

"Let's go..." Peel then moved his hand forward and said to Potter, Anda and his friends.

Neil looked at his father who loved him so much, and cried. He slowly went up to hug his father, but he still didn't cry, and he forced a silly smile and said, "Dad, it's okay, why don't you just say it? You have to have confidence in me."

Louis just hugged him tightly, and didn't know what to say for a moment. He just thought in his heart that this kid must not be like me again, and he must find a way to give him a better future.
