Chapter 394: They Are Too Cheap
“Mrs. Gu, why are you being so low-key today?” Microphones were pointed in Gu Nianshen and Lin Yiqian’s direction.
The reporters had failed to recognize Lin Yiqian before as she was wearing a cap and a face mask.
She was even more successful in protecting her identity than celebrities.
‘Have I ever been showy?’ Lin Yiqian thought to herself.
Before Lin Yiqian could answer the first question, another reporter asked a second question, “Oh, yeah. I saw the other family members of the Black Horse’s players wearing matching jerseys. Why aren’t you wearing one, Mrs. Gu?”
As soon as the jerseys were mentioned, Lin Yiqian released her grip over Gu Nianshen. In fact, she even pushed him away ever so slightly such that there was now a tiny gap between them.
She pretended to flip her hair nonchalantly. “I don’t like it.”
The reporters were speechless.
Was it really appropriate for her to say she did not like the jerseys in front of the thousands of Black Horse’s fans?
All of a sudden, the reporters were at a loss as to what to ask Lin Yiqian.
They then turned their attention to Gu Nianshen. “Mr. Gu, it looks like you’re wearing a jersey that’s different from the rest too.”
One of the reporters who paid close attention noticed that Gu Nianshen’s jersey was not of the newest edition.
“The others are too cheap. Why should I be dressed like them?” Gu Nianshen raised his chin proudly.
Meanwhile, Li Nanmu and the other players were walking their way and happened to overhear Gu Nianshen’s response to the reporter. All of them nearly choked in response.
The reporters were now in an awkward situation as they felt clueless about how to continue the conversation.
If they were to continue on the same topic, they might end up offending the other players from Black Horse.
The reporters soon realized that chatting with this couple was indeed a difficult task as they excelled at bringing the conversation to a dead end.
Qin Feng swallowed his pride and quickly walked over to Gu Nianshen. He glanced at Lin Yiqian before looking slyly at Gu Nianshen. “Mr. Gu, must I reveal your thoughts?”
Gu Nianshen frowned before giving Qin Feng a look of warning.
Everyone became increasingly curious.
Right then, even the reporters could sense that some interesting gossip was around the corner. “Is there something interesting that you’d like to share with us?” They asked Qin Feng.
“No.” Qin Feng stopped smiling as he rolled his eyes at the reporters.
Then, he took a sip of water before turning around and walking away.
“Mr. Gu is only missing his old flame. You guys are overreacting.” A lazy voice could suddenly be heard.
Everyone’s gaze shifted to the person who spoke.
It was Fang Heyang who wore Fu Zhong’s black jersey. Like Gu Nianshen, he was receiving a lot of attention throughout the match and was also the strongest player in his team.
His sudden appearance and the words he spoke that hinted at gossip caused the reporters to shift their attention to him.
“Fu Zhong’s players have been trying to provoke Yi Gao’s players all day. Is there any bad blood between the two teams?”
“Nope.”
Fu Zhong was being provocative despite there not being any bad history between them and Yi Gao. It sounded ridiculous to the reporters.
“I see that both you and Mr. Gu are equally skilled on the basketball court. How likely do you think you will win today’s match?”
‘Equally skilled?’ Gu Nianshen felt offended by the reporter’s comment.
The reporter who had said that was a young female reporter in her early twenties.
Was there something wrong with her eyes at such a young age?
“Your department should get you a pair of glasses,” Gu Nianshen said.
Apart from Lin Yiqian, nobody else understood why Gu Nianshen had made the comment.
Why would Mr. Gu pay attention to a reporter’s eyes all of a sudden? The female reporter was still in shock from being paid any attention to at all.
“Thank you… Thank you for your concern, Mr. Gu.”
Lin Yiqian nearly burst into laughter.
