Playoffs

"Team A has seven points." Zhao Muchi, the referee, lazily reminded, "Team B hasn't scored yet, so it's still Spades serve."

Spades throws it up, drops it, and hits it hard again, the ball almost flashes into a ray of light into the sand of the B team, even Tang Er playing such a high physical fitness didn't react to it, Mu Ke tries to catch it once, but is stopped by Bai Liu's quickness - it is obvious that something is going to happen to the ball if he catches it.

"Can't catch it." Bai Yi looked incredulously at the huge sand hole on the other side, muttering, "...... This kind of monster's ball, how can you think that you can't catch it."

"It does look like we can't catch Spades' ball." Fang Dian looked at the ball and rubbed her chin thoughtfully, "That's a little off the charts in terms of strength and speed."

"Looks like we can't catch the ball, should we take a timeout?" Bai Liu spreads his hands, his tone casual, "Tell the other team we can't catch it or something?"

Mu Ke pursed his lips a bit unwillingly, Tang Er breathed a sigh of relief, but it was Mu Sicheng who exclaimed, "Bai Liu, you've got some backbone, okay!"

"Playing the game is about winning! You're so crazy in the game, why don't you have the determination to win when you play volleyball outside! You're too disillusioned, aren't you?"

Bai Liu shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, "I have a dispensable attitude towards games with no specific prizes at stake, I don't get anything for winning, I don't have to win, right?"

Mu Sicheng: "......"

Shit, forgot that the core purpose of this guy playing the game isn't even about winning, it's about money!

"But letting the opposite side waterproof the game isn't fun, games are only fun when both sides try their best." Fang Dian shook her head, she pondered for a while, suddenly shifted her eyes to Bai Liu, who was wearing a semi-transparent open white shirt, and delicately raised her eyebrows, "It's true that I can't catch it, but I have a way to make it impossible for Spades to send this kind of ball."

Mu Sicheng quickly perked up, and Mu Ke jumped his eyes over to Fang Dian expectantly.

Only Bai Liu's heart quickly developed a sense of foreboding, his scalp tightened when he was looked at by Fang Dian's eyes - the last time this woman, Fang Dian, looked at him with this kind of eyes, it was the time when she turned her head and auctioned off a million dollars a year of his life to Hou Tong.

...... Such valuation and calculating eyes.

"What are you going to do?" Bai Liu inquired calmly, sidestepping Fang Dian's gaze.

"Ah, it's like this!" Fang Dian smiled brightly as she slapped Bai Liu's shoulder hard, "Doesn't Spades like you a lot! Why don't you seduce him so that he can't serve this powerful serve when he's not playing well!"

Bai Liu: "......"

Sure enough.

"Is that any different from letting the other team bleed to let us win?" Bai Liu calmly asked rhetorically.

"Big difference." Fang Dian, unfazed by Bai Liu's flippant words, retorted with a smirk, "It's the difference between them being forced to lose to us, which is just a tactic, and actively losing to us, which is a surrender tactic."

"Ehhh, just don't resist, you were sacrificed for our glorious victory! Go and color Spades!"

Fang Dian said as she moved to push Bai Liu into the net.

Bai Liu stood still, took a deep breath, and averted his eyes, "...... I won't color Spades."

"Eh?" Fang Dian poked her head out from behind Bai Liu's back a bit puzzled, "You guys look very close, you didn't seduce?"

Why, Fang Dian, can this woman ask such things so naturally?

Both Mu Ke and Tang Er Ta, who were next to him, quickly realized the meaning behind those words, Mu Ke's whole face reddened, he politely averted his gaze, and silently retreated farther away, Tang Er Ta pretended to be serious and averted his gaze, clenched his fist and choked and coughed, and also pinned away Mu Sicheng, who had not reacted yet, with his arm.

"Have you ever been seduced?" Bai Liu asked in a cold tone, intending to turn the tables on Fang Dian.

"Of course!" Fang Dian looked proud, "Old Lu is so gullible!"

Bai Liu: "......"

It was him who lost.

"Let me tell you ......" Fang Dian held Bai Liu's head mysteriously while muttering and gesturing, "First you do this... ...then this ...... and finally this, got it?"

Bai Liu raised an eyebrow with a subtle expression, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Fang Dian nodded assuredly, "Spades eats that shit up as soon as he sees it!"

Mu Sicheng, who was probing from afar, looked at Fang Dian and Bai Liu who were together, curious to the point of scratching his heart, frantically wanting to go over and listen: "What on earth are they discussing?"

Mu Ke and Tang Er looked at the sky and the ground and kept silent.

"Team B's captain requests a timeout." Zhao Muchi saw Fang Dian raise her hand to signal a timeout, then took Bai Liu to the changing room and raised an eyebrow, "The match will start later."

Lu Yizhan watched Fang Dian take Bai Liu to the changing room, his expression began to be unsteady, he turned to Spades with heavy eyes, patted Spades on the shoulder, and instructed in a serious tone, "Whatever Bai Liu does later, keep your mindset and serve well, got it?"

"Don't be confused by external things, keep your heart, and we'll be victorious in the end."

"I'll beat him." Spades nodded calmly.

This calmness lasted less than three minutes, and as soon as Bai Liu came out of the locker room, Spades' eyes were instantly fixed on it.

Bai Liu had undone her long hair, her white shirt that had previously been buttoned up to her heart - and most importantly, Bai Liu had traded in her knee-length shorts for swim trunks, the triangular kind.

Then Fang Dian splashed water on Bai Liu, her long hair and shirt sticking wetly to her body, her long hair snaking down her collar to the top of her collarbone, where it coiled into the shape of a snake, and her shirt sticking half-transparently to her skin.

"There!" Fang Dian looked convinced, "Bai Liu dressed like this, we'll win."

Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu with a confused look on his face, "Huh? What's so different about this outfit?"

Lu Yizhan looked at Spades' almost nice open eyes and slowly covered his face, sadness in his heart - their team's main offense was still confused by external objects, and the momentum was gone!

As expected, the next game, Spades just a serve, Bai Liu on the net, Spades attention was quickly diverted by the net behind the Bai Liu, eyes almost to the Bai Liu chest on the strands of hair, serve error, volleyball narrowly and narrowly over the net.

"I'll do it!" Fang Dian moves quickly to the net from the back row and hauls the ball up securely.

Lu Yizhan, the second passer on the opposite side of the net, saw Fang Dian go up to the net, his eyes were fixed, he jumped up to hold the ball, and tried to push the ball which was dragged by Fang Dian to the net again.

"Don't think we only have Spades on our side." Lu Yizhan smiles gently but moves sternly, "Fang, I've been waiting under the net for you to attack over."

"Yeah?" Fang Dian replied with a smile, stepping back and jumping up in a position to dunk the ball, "I didn't underestimate you, Lu."

Lu Yizhan also quickly jumped close to the net and raised his hands to block the path of Fang Dian's dunk - it was obvious that he was going to block the net, and he wanted to make Fang Dian's dunk not go through, Lu Yizhan's body size is taller than Fang Dian's, his hands are long and flexible, and he has a wide range of defense, so it was really easy for Fang Dian to dunk the ball after being blocked. After being blocked like this, Fang Dian can't hit the ball easily.

As the two jumped up to about the same level of their faces, Fang Dian suddenly winked at Lu Yizhan, who was staring intently at her, and softly exclaimed, "Hubby, do I look good in this swimsuit?"

Lu Yizhan: "?!!!?!"

There was a quick break in his defensive hands, and Fang Dian's eyes instantly changed from charming to fierce, the muscles in her hands tightened, and she leaned back and drove her whole body hard, aiming at that break and dunking the ball so hard that it brought Lu Yizhan's whole body to the ground.

Fang Dian also landed on the ground, shook her fist and yelled NICE!

Lu Yizhan breaks down, "Squares, you cheated!"

"But ......" Fang Dian ruffled her hair a bit and gave Lu Yizhan a flying kiss in a stylish manner, "In the game, cheating is just a regular operation ah."

"You have to accept that, Honey~"

"One point for Team B." Zhao Muchi counts lazily as he silently flicks the sunglasses off the top of his head and puts them on.

What a shiny couple's light, it's going to blind him.

Fifteen minutes later.

Zhao Muchi rested his cheeks and announced the result with amusement, "Fifteen to eight, Team B wins."

Lu Yizhan kneeled on the ground, he looked at the ground, unbelievably indistinctly muttered to himself, "...... lost, made such a complete strategic deployment, I actually ...... lost."

Spades is silent, but with his head down, his expression sullen, and his lips pursed into a line, it's clear that he, too, can't accept the outcome of this match.

Bai Yi collapsed, pointing at the two men and yelling, "You guys are sick! You look like you've given it your all and still lost! You two are the ones who are dragging us down the most! Bai Jiamu and I are the ones on our knees crying!"

"In the second half all the other team had to do was yell at you guys and you wouldn't move! Bai Jiamu and I were running around like idiots! It was so hard to score a point, and you guys gave away the rest! Are you the spies sent by the other team to interfere with us!"

"Please have some sportsmanship! Get rid of the temptation to play seriously! You start off so formal, you get me and Bai Jiamu all fired up, and then you two pieces of shit drop the ball like crazy!"

"Can you guys afford to play this most serious volleyball game of my life!"

Lu Yizhan: "......"

Spades: "......"

The two men apologized honestly, "I'm sorry."

Bai Yi was so angry that he almost had a brain hemorrhage: "Is it useful to be sorry! All the hard work I put into that game, all the youth I put into it, it was all for nothing!"

"One more game." Spades' eyes were determined, "This time we'll win."

Lu Yizhan was full of guilt as he rubbed the back of his head, "We'll definitely play well this time and won't be so easily led by the other side."

"After all, we're just a team. I should have respected your feelings properly during the game."

Bai Yi heart of the gas subside some, he was even a little moved to, tears are going to flow out: "...... harm, we've been teammates for so long, there is no need to say such things, and then seriously play a win back ...... "Come on the line.

Bai Liu on the opposite side of the net spoke faintly, "Spades, no more fights, let's go, go back for dinner."

Spades gave a quick, oh-so-quick, flip over the net and followed Bai Liu's back, walking with a sticky hug around Bai Liu's waist, sticking to Bai Liu's back as he walked along.

"Old Lu!" Fang Dian waved her hand excitedly, "We're having seafood tonight, come over and cook!"

"Come on!" Lu Yizhan ran over like a reflex without looking back, "What do you want to eat?"

Looking at the backs of these two teammates who had completely forgotten themselves, Bai Yi, who was left in his place with tearstains on his face, looked numb: "......"

What happened to the promise of another fight to win back the respect we had for him?

Will believe you guys I was so naive!

Liao Ke, who was walking at the end, patted Bai Yi's shoulder sympathetically, "Do you eat seafood?"

Bai Yi roars angrily, "Eat!!!"
