Chapter 75

"Think about it carefully, I'll give you three seconds to consider."

"1, 2, 3!"

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as you agreeing!"

Standing on tiptoe, reaching out his right hand to wrap around the other's neck, Shuidao Zhengzhang said shamelessly.

"Stop messing around~"

Ji Le Taizao pushed away Shuidao Zhengzhang's arm, his tone somewhat helpless, only he was wearing a brown duckbill cap and a black mask, so the expression on his face couldn't be seen.

"Ahem."

Seeing Ji Le Taizao's appearance, Shuidao Zhengzhang put away his unserious look; as a friend of many years, he knew what the other was hesitating about.

"Taizao, actually you know very well that your professional training mode is simply not suitable for those little guys at Green Mountain; their talent simply cannot withstand your training methods."

"Only blindly following your path, without a bit of their own style and characteristics, maybe your departure is a good thing for them?"

His words paused, and Shuidao Zhengzhang pointed to the Budongfeng crowd cheering on the court and continued.

"But Budongfeng is different; these children have already found their own paths, and they will grow rapidly under your guidance."

"As long as you join, Budongfeng's goal this year is the national championship."

"National championship?"

Ji Le Taizao's tone rose slightly:

"That kid named Jiecheng Wu is not simple, having the level of a top middle school student, but the rest, Yiwu Shen Si, Shenwei Ming, and Shitian Tie are just okay, the others are far behind."

"Wanting to win the national championship with this lineup? Isn't it too early to say that?"

Rustle~

As soon as his voice fell, an information sheet was held up by Shuidao Zhengzhang with his fingertips, and a triumphant smile flashed on his face.

Two strands of dark green hair fell from the hat, floating in front of Ji Le Taizao's eyes, and his sharp gaze swept over.

In the photo column, a boy with golden hair showed dominance between his brows, and his confident expression almost overflowed the paper.

And in the name column next to it, "Ju Juping" was clearly written.

"Good eyes."

Ji Le Taizao thought to himself; although it was just a photo, some things could be seen with just one expression.

"The Twin Heroes of Kyushu, Ju Juping.

With his joining, Budongfeng's goal of winning the national championship will no longer be out of reach!"

Shuidao Zhengzhang's tone was slightly excited; only in front of Ji Le Taizao could he show his ambition without reservation.

It was also luck; some time ago, the tennis club successfully entered the Du Da Sai, and he was in a good mood, so he paid a little attention to Teacher Sen Tian's progress on foreign transfer students.

That was how he accidentally noticed Ju Juping's transfer application and past information.

When he learned that Ju Juping had participated in the National Competition in his first year, Shuidao Zhengzhang directly pulled out his transfer application, giving the green light to all procedures.

Otherwise, according to Teacher Sen Tian's speed, Ju Juping would have to wait until July at the earliest to report to school.

But now, it is estimated that he should arrive next week.

"Even if you don't consider yourself, you have to think about Jing Xing," seeing Ji Le Taizao still silent, Shuidao Zhengzhang said directly what he cared about most.

"Does Jing Xing like tennis now?"

Sure enough, Ji Le Taizao's calm eyes fluctuated; this was indeed his biggest worry, that the son of a professional player was not interested in tennis.

It was ironic!

"Bring him to Budongfeng; when it comes to the love of tennis, this group of little devils will absolutely not lose to anyone."

After a moment of silence, Ji Le Taizao finally loosened his stance.

"Give me some time, let me think about it again."

Hearing his tone, Shuidao Zhengzhang finally felt relieved; he knew his friend too well. With Taizao's joining, the vacant coach position at Budongfeng was finally filled.

For a time, Shuidao Zhengzhang felt heroic in his heart.

A coach who was a former professional player, Jiecheng Wu, the captain who defeated Tezuka Kunimitsu, Ju Juping, who showed his edge in the National Competition last year, and talented players like Yiwu Shen Si, Shenwei Ming, and Shitian Tie.

Budongfeng was steadily marching toward the national championship.

Right!

Shuidao Zhengzhang's eyes flickered.

That child Jing Xing's talent was no worse than Yiwu Shen Si's.

"Ahahaha, Taizao, you are worthy of being my best friend, not only can you be my coach, but you also added a player to me for free."

Shuidao Zhengzhang was secretly happy, his face full of uncontrollable smiles.

And at this time, a voice came from behind.

"Excuse me, you two."

Jiecheng Tongren had just left the Qingxue team and brought Jingshang Shou and Zhi Sha Zhi toward Shuidao Zhengzhang and the others.

"Who are you?"

Shuidao Zhengzhang immediately put away his exposed emotions, his expression becoming serious and dignified, matching the image of a principal in the public's mind.

Jiecheng Tongren smiled slightly and took out two black business cards, handing them to the two respectively.

"Hello, I am the editor-in-chief of Tennis Monthly, Jiecheng Tongren."

Nodding, Ji Le Taizao casually put the business card into his pocket, without words, his expression cold, looking like a stranger who should not be approached.

And Shuidao Zhengzhang's eyes changed; he couldn't be more familiar with the name Tennis Monthly. The incident at Budongfeng last year started spreading from there, and he was the one who came to Budongfeng to clean up the mess because of that.

"Tennis Monthly?"

"I don't know what advice Editor-in-Chief Jiecheng has."

Shuidao Zhengzhang's tone was cold; if it weren't for the fact that the few articles they published before the Du Da Sai were fair, he would have turned and left the moment he saw the business card.

Jiecheng Tongren didn't care about such a response, just smiled lightly: "Principal Shuidao is too polite, the child in my family is studying at Budongfeng, so naturally I have to come and greet you when I see you."

Hearing this, Shuidao Zhengzhang's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Jiecheng... Jiecheng..."

Jiecheng Wu!

He suddenly felt a bit annoyed, regretting not looking at the background information of that kid.

"So that's how it is, hahaha..."

Laughing awkwardly, Shuidao Zhengzhang's expression changed rapidly, a warm smile immediately appeared on his face, and he stepped forward to take Jiecheng Tongren's hand, immediately becoming intimate.

Ji Le Taizao frowned, silently stepped back, looking at the jumping black figures on the court, still thinking in his heart.

Perhaps as Zhengzhang said, his requirements were too high; those children would grow better if they left him.

Changing an environment could also be helpful for Jing Xing's growth.

"Because there are still some things to deal with, I will take my leave first, and I will definitely visit next time."

"Budongfeng's door is always open for you."

Ending the polite conversation process, Jiecheng Tongren left with Jingshang Shou and Zhi Sha Zhi.

"For the sake of work, not only exposed the scandal of his son's club, but also let him continue to stay in the tennis club, not worried at all about the impact of others knowing about this on him; this editor-in-chief of the newspaper is really heartless."

Looking at Jiecheng Tongren's back, Shuidao Zhengzhang secretly slandered in his heart.

"Heh heh, otherwise it wouldn't be that the kid himself actively requested it..."
