???? When the whistle blew for the fourth quarter, Zhuo Yiran glanced at the electronic screen in front of him and took a deep breath.

????The difference of ten points may not seem much, but facing such a strong opponent, it is an extremely difficult challenge to recover one point.

????Because of the sudden estrus, Zhuo Yiran's physical strength and explosive power have not yet fully recovered, and the calf that was just cramped still has some dull pains. Such a physical condition cannot support him to crush the audience like before He is a good scorer, but he knows that even so, Lu Chen will definitely have a different solution.

????His eyes followed closely the focus of the audience. Lu Chen was wearing a white jersey, like an unstoppable lightning bolt, refreshing everyone's perception of speed.

???? Fortunately, although his strength has declined, Zhuo Yiran's reflexes have always been consistent with Lu Chen's.The long-term joint training and the natural tacit understanding enable him to see through all of Lu Chen's fake moves, understand his every step of the plan, and give Lu Chen the most seamless cooperation before the opponent reacts, so as not to waste what Lu Chen created for him. Every chance to score.

???? And Motivation Academy has always adopted the tactic of winning with strength. Although the situation is unstoppable at the beginning, as the game draws to the end, no matter how persistent the physical strength is, it is difficult to maintain the best state at the beginning.

???? Lu Chen just caught the occasional fatigue of the other party, and looked for a breakthrough point on this basis. The other people cooperated closely with him. In the case of continuous scoring, the School of Economics and Management actually caught up by a few points.

???? In the last minute, Zhuo Yiran made another three-pointer, leaving only one point behind the Institute of Economics and Management.

???? After an hour of fierce competition, the real match point was reached, and the audience held their breath.

???? The basketball hovered rapidly between the two rebounds, but was repeatedly intercepted before the goal was scored.

???? Countdown 30 seconds.

???? The ball was controlled by the captain of the academy. He successfully passed the defense of Lin Yang and Xiang Jia all the way, and he was about to come to the outside line——

???? The ball was intercepted by Lu Chen again.

???? The captain of the Motivation Institute quickly returned to the defense, and two other nearby players also rushed to intercept, but Lu Chen's figure was like a snow-white sharp blade, breaking through the heavy defense and heading straight for the opponent's rebound.

???? Countdown 15 seconds.

???? Lu Chen has come to the basket, surrounded by three defensive players.

???? At this moment, he has two choices, either to make a layup himself, or to pass the ball to small forward Zhuo Yiran who is outside the three-point line.

???? Every choice has risks, but they are only one point behind Motivational Academy, so no matter which one Lu Chen chooses, as long as they successfully score, they will win.

????Zhuo Yiran had frequent situations in the first few quarters, and even lost the ball several times in a row, but Lu Chen's state was always online. After weighing the pros and cons, he should hold this opportunity in his own hands.

???? Sure enough, after several quick changes of direction, Lu Chen took off on the spot. It seemed that his final decision was to score himself.

????The defensive players of Motivational Academy have guessed this point, subconsciously blocked in front of the rebound.

????Only Zhuo Yiran was still standing outside, staring closely at Lu Chen's movements.

???? "Do you believe me?" Lu Chen's voice echoed in his ears.

???? The next second, to everyone's surprise, Lu Chen suddenly changed direction in the air, turned around and passed the ball to Zhuo Yiran.

????I trust you.

???? Lu Chen was talking to him.

???? Zhuo Yiran took off before everyone else, got the ball without any suspense, then turned around quickly and threw the ball to the basket.

???? The moment the ball was released, the captain of the Motivation Institute suddenly stretched his arms, trying to stop his attack.

????The opponent's reaction was half a beat slower, but with a height of nearly two meters, his fingertips still managed to touch the bottom of the basketball.

???? It was this blow that made Zhuo Yiran's weak arm muscles uncontrollably weak, and the ball's original trajectory was easily changed.

???? He was stunned for a moment, and then watched helplessly as the basketball lost its aim, hit the back edge of the basket, was bounced to the front, and then bounced back again, as if full of enthusiasm for the small ring. nostalgia -

????still have a chance.

????Zhuo Yiran stared at the ball closely, its beating frequency pulled his heartbeat.

???? If you want to enter, you must enter.

???? All the team members and audience of the School of Economics and Management are silently chanting.

???? There is no doubt that this ball is related to the victory or defeat of the whole game.

???? But after bouncing back and forth a few times, it bounced off the edge of the rim.

????Zhuo Yiran's heart stopped suddenly.

???? Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the boundless coolness spread from the heart to the whole body in an instant, and the heart fell into the ice cave irresistibly following the ball all the way to the bottom.

???? The countdown stays at the last three seconds.

???? The Institute of Motivation didn't have time to rejoice, and the School of Economics and Management didn't have time to feel lost. When the whole audience hadn't reacted from the ball, the white figure under the basket seemed to be out of time.

???? He catches the ball before it hits the ground, jumps and throws it to the hoop again—

????The moment the ball fell into the ring, the whistle sounded for the end of the game.

???? The audience was stunned.

???? That was a speed that had never been seen on the field. Few people could turn things around in the last three seconds of the game.

???? Like tens of thousands of fireworks being ignited in an instant, there was a burst of unison shouting from the auditorium:

???? "Lu Chen——"

???? Like everyone in the audience, Zhuo Yiran subconsciously cast his eyes on the only focus, but the moment Lu Chen turned his head, his sight was suddenly blocked by someone.

???? "Fuck! Brother Lu! Your speed just now! You are really a god!"

???? "We made it to the finals! We actually made it to the finals!"

???? "Captain awesome!"

???? There were cheers from his teammates, but Zhuo Yiran was in a trance involuntarily in front of his eyes, and kept replaying the ball he just lost.

???? If it weren't for Lu Chen's timely response to the rescue, the whole effort of the whole game would eventually be lost in his hands alone.

????According to Lu Chen's strength, in the situation just now, he could clearly choose to dunk by himself, but he handed the ball to him.

????The nervous brain began to uncontrollably recall the poor performance from beginning to end just now. He missed a shot in the first quarter and lost the ball in the middle of the third quarter. Zhuo Yiran was very clear that he had not had a single moment in the entire game. is online.

???? But even so, at the moment when the final goal was decided, Lu Chen still chose to trust him without reservation.

???? But he failed Lu Chen's trust.

???? There was a sharp dry pain in the throat, and Zhuo Yiran subconsciously went to the edge of the arena to find water to drink, but the conversations of the girls in the front row came to his ears.

???? "Did he just get in-estrus?"

???? "Like, I just saw fresh marks on his glands."

???? "No wonder, he has been in a bad state this time."

???? "It's okay, he still scored a lot of goals this time, it's just a little worse than usual."

???? "The ball that will determine the outcome can be lost. If the Lu team hadn't made a timely rescue, our School of Economics and Management would have been destroyed in his hands alone."

???? "There's no need to target him like that, right? The Motivation Academy is too hardcore. Except for Team Lu, the Economics and Management Academy scored less than Zhuo Yiran."

???? "He usually scores the most points in the team, but who is not to blame for this sudden drop in level?"

???? "It's wrong to be strong? Even if you're injured, you still hold on. If you don't have him, the School of Economics and Management will lose."

???? "Compare your heart to your heart. As an omega, let me be honest, since they are all divided, why bother to play hard?"

???? "That is to say, the physical fitness is not as good as alpha, and when it comes to estrus, it is impossible to control."

???? "I heard a gossip. It is said that Kuang Jie, who was suspended before, has resumed his qualifications for the competition. He wanted to participate in the competition, but Lu Chen refused."

???? "Ah? I thought Lu Chen was the kind of person who clearly distinguishes between public and private, but I didn't expect to be so protective. It concerns the honor of the entire academy. Can this kind of thing be decided by personal feelings?"

???? "Can you stop talking nonsense without knowing the situation... I have also heard about this incident. It is obvious that Kuang Jie used pheromones to play foul. Suppressing pheromones is a crime. Lu Chen is kind enough not to call the police Okay? This guy doesn't take the rules seriously at all, and if he really plays, he will implicate the whole team."

???? "But no matter what, Kuang Jie is really good at playing. If he is allowed to play this game, it will not be so thrilling."

???? "Zhuo Yiran is a sharp shooter, Kuang Jie's scoring ability is far worse than him, okay? Before he joined the basketball team, where did the School of Economics and Management get such good results in the regular season?"

???? "Tch, it's just a case-by-case discussion, isn't a sharpshooter also unable to handle the estrous period?"

???? "The estrous period also kills so many alphas instantly..."

???? "Shhh - you guys want to quarrel, can you? They are drinking water in front, so they are not afraid of being heard..."

???? It was the first time that Zhuo Yiran realized that his hearing was so sharp. He was clearly not too close to the auditorium, but every tiny voice was like a sharp arrow, piercing his eardrums.

???? In a daze, a black and strong figure walked over in front of him: "Sister-in-law! You..."

???? "I don't blame you for that ball just now," Zhong Han said slowly, "The guy on the other side is so big that I can't even catch him with a jump ball."

???? "I only succeeded in rebounding once," Xiang Jia walked behind him, and sighed resentfully, "It's hard work for my sister-in-law to still score so much after being injured."

???? "This game is too risky," Lin Yang, who was always joking, no longer had a smile on his face at the moment, and he was completely worried. "Fortunately, the captain played the last goal with great skill."

???? As soon as the words fell, the hero surrounded by the crowd in the center of the arena struggled to emerge from the crowd.

???? Lu Chen clearly saved the whole team by himself, but at this moment, there was no joy on his face.

???? Through many figures, Zhuo Yiran caught the fleeting anxiety in the eyes of the other party, and at the moment when the four eyes met, he locked on him firmly.

???? Lu Chen ran towards him, hugged him into his arms, and gently pressed his head on his shoulder.

???? "We won." His tone didn't sound like celebration at all, but more like comfort.

????Zhuo Yiran was stunned for a moment, then patted him on the back lightly: "You are great."

???? After a short hug, the captain of the Institute of Motivation on the side also came towards this side: "The Academy of Motivation has always entered the finals in previous years, and this is the first time that it has lost to the Department of Arts and Sciences."

???? "Team Lu does have a promising future. Since we have this strength, we'd better win the championship in one fell swoop." He clenched his hand into a fist and extended it towards Lu Chen. "This way we won't look ashamed."

???? Lu Chen reached out his hand and touched him.

???? The captain of the Motive Academy looked at Zhuo Yiran who was beside Lu Chen, and smiled jokingly again: "Little cutie, don't be discouraged, you play so well, I'm going to be jealous of Lu Chen."

???? Judging from his appearance, he is not someone who can't afford to lose. This sentence is probably just a joke, without any malice. In the past, Zhuo Yiran might have said something poorly, but at this moment, he just politely rushed The other party pulled the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.

???? Lu Chen lowered his eyes to look at him, then turned his head to look at him, and gently embraced the shoulders of the people around him: "It's useless to be jealous."
