Rebirth of the Rich Second Generation's Growth Diary

Chapter 116 Superpower is Rich
An Duoduo particularly enjoys watching American superhero movies. This was during the period when the Marvel Cinematic Universe was just beginning to explode in popularity. As soon as class was over, An Duoduo would grab an MP4 player, put on headphones, and watch Iron Man.

Li Xu saw it several times and finally couldn't help but complain to her: "You have watched this movie many times, you should be able to memorize the lines, right?"

An Duoduo didn't refute it. She took off her headphones with some sadness and said, "It would be great if I had super powers."

Li Xu smiled and asked her, "If you really had superpowers, whose superpowers would you want to have?"

An Duoduo thought about it carefully and said, "I still like the Flash's superpower the most."

Li Xu said unhappily, "You're watching a Marvel movie!"

An Duoduo looked confused, "What do you mean?"

Li Xu said seriously: "You fake fan, you watch Marvel movies, but the Flash is a DC hero, you know? He's Superman and Batman..."

An Duoduo said seriously, "You guys are like that. You always categorize everything you do. For us girls, what's the difference? They're all handsome guys with superpowers anyway."

Li Xu shook his head: "I won't bother with you anymore."

An Duoduo smiled dumbly and said, "Shouldn't I be the one to say this?"

She lowered her head to look at Iron Man for a few seconds, then raised her head again and asked, "Li Xu, what about you? If you had superpowers, whose superpower would you choose?"

Li Xu leaned back in his chair and said, "I already have superpowers."

An Duoduo's eyes suddenly lit up. She came over, her bright eyes gazing at Li Xu curiously, and asked, "So what's your superpower?"

The scent of An Duoduo almost hit me in the face, and it smelled sweet.

Li Xu raised his head and said, "My superpowers are the same as Batman's, but slightly weaker."

An Duoduo showed a puzzled expression, "What is Batman's superpower?"

Li Xu smiled slightly, "I can't tell you this."

If you say to An Duoduo, "I'm rich..." that would be too pretentious.

……

An Duoduo has been having some troubles recently.

What worries her may be what some girls would love to have.

The story began a while ago when Li Xu was often dragged by An Duoduo to play basketball.

Sometimes they are in the same group, sometimes not.

But in general, the winning rate of being in a group with Li Xu will be higher.

Because Li Xu focuses on defense and is happy to let his teammates attack, he will grab rebounds and block shots.

Give the best gaming experience to your teammates and the worst gaming experience to your opponents.

Later on, An Duoduo also particularly liked being in the same group with Li Xu.

One day, a high school athlete was playing ball with them on the court.

After being defeated three times in a row by An Duoduo, at the end, the opponent suddenly stopped An Duoduo, then stared at An Duoduo with scorching eyes, and said wildly: "You are the most special girl I have ever seen!"

"I've never seen a girl like you on this court."

An Duoduo was so embarrassed that she got goosebumps all over her body.

An Duoduo didn't want to pay any attention to that boy, even though she later learned that he was a basketball player with the most female fans in their senior year class.

What I said is true, that boy kept trying to stop An Duoduo.

An Duoduo asked him, "What are you going to do?"

The boy seemed to have no idea what he was going to do. He thought about it carefully and then said, "Are you free this weekend? I'll take you to Jinchuan Lake for boating!"

An Duoduo shook her head like a rattle, "I don't want to go."

The boy asked, "Why, don't you like rowing?"

An Duoduo said, "I don't want to go with you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The boy chased her and asked, "What do you want me to do to go boating with you?"

An Duoduo trotted and said, "No matter what, I won't go boating with you."

Li Xu laughed happily on the side.

After returning to the classroom, An Duoduo was thinking and suddenly poked Li Xu.

Li Xu looked at her strangely and asked, "What's the matter?"

An Duoduo said, "What were you laughing at just now?"

Li Xu thought about it seriously and said, "That's funny."

An Duoduo lowered her head: "It's not funny at all."

Li Xu smiled and said, "This shows that you are attractive. Don't you want to go boating with him?"

An Duoduo nodded and said, "I don't want to go boating with everyone."

Li Xu's eyes flashed: "Everyone?"

An Duoduo looked into his eyes and nodded, "Yes, everyone."

Li Xu said "oh" and the two of them went about their own business.

I originally thought it was just a random episode, but I didn't expect it to become a series.

Afterwards, the athlete seemed to have figured out An Duoduo's basketball playing style.

Every time An Duoduo went to the playground, the boy would run to the edge of the playground even if he skipped class to interact with An Duoduo.

An Duoduo was still as unwilling to pay attention to the boy as usual.

Li Xu laughed twice more, and when he laughed the second time, An Duoduo suddenly looked at him with a meaningful smile.

The smile on Li Xu's face froze slightly, and he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Later, the boy invited An Duoduo to the playground again.

An Duoduo pulled Li Xu over and said, "If you can beat our group, I'll consider it."

Li Xu clearly heard An Duoduo say that if the other party won, he would consider it.

Just think about it!
This statement is full of meaning.

But the boy obviously didn't understand what An Duoduo said. He was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, and immediately called his two brothers over.

In addition to An Duoduo and Li Xu, her group also includes Wen Bo, a high school sports student.

Wen Bo looked at Li Xu and An Duoduo with some strange eyes.

Their fight that day was so intense that it was dark and chaotic.

Li Xu used all his strength.

Wenbo is also very good. Although he is only in the second year of high school and a grade shorter than others, he is the biggest on the court.

The game was played for 21 points, and the score was tied at the last 20 points.

In the last ball, An Duoduo and Wen Bo were both defended very tightly, but Li Xu was defending and grabbing rebounds throughout the game, so no one paid attention to him in the final moments.

After An Duoduo broke through, she passed the ball to Li Xu through the gap between two people without looking at anyone.

There was no one guarding Li Xu, and he suddenly got excited. He jumped up and almost slammed the basketball into the basket. In the end, he miraculously defeated the three high school athletes.

It was an exciting game, and An Duoduo excitedly threw herself on Li Xu.

"Wow...we won!"

Li Xu blinked, his expression a little subtle. The scent on An Duoduo's body was like the first ray of sunshine shining into the garden in the early morning of spring, mixed with the freshness of the newly blooming jasmine and the youthfulness of the tender green leaves, soft, gentle and pure.

The senior high school athlete's face was a little gloomy, and when An Duoduo was leaving, he stopped An Duoduo again.

An Duoduo frowned this time and said seriously, "You've already lost."

The boy shook his head: "I know I lost, so I won't invite you to the playground anymore."

An Duoduo nodded. "Then you are quite good at keeping your promise."

But the other party said, "I want to fight you again, for the whole match! If you beat me again this time, I promise I will never appear in your sight again. But if I win, I hope you will give me a chance." An Duoduo shook her head and said, "Whether I win or lose, I won't give you a chance."

"Then I will pester you every day. I will go to your classroom door every day to give you gifts." The other party acted like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

An Duoduo frowned, then seemed to be considering such a scenario. Feeling a little helpless, she lowered her head silently, and then finally couldn't help but look towards Li Xu.

Li Xu didn't know if it was his illusion, but for the first time he saw a hint of resentment in An Duoduo's eyes, as if she was saying... Can you still hold on?
Li Xu strode over and said to the boy, "Brother, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but do you think this is really fair? Although An Duoduo is better at playing basketball than all of you, she's also a girl!"

"Five against five, you're so smart."

The boy had always been hostile to Li Xu. Upon hearing this, he raised his head proudly and said, "It doesn't matter. Then you can fight for him!"

Li Xu touched his chin and thought for a moment before saying, "I'm not a sports student either. So even if you can beat me, is that fair and square?"

The boy immediately laughed and said, "Okay, then why don't you find some athletes to act as your external aid?"

Li Xu continued, "You're on the senior high school basketball team. All the athletes in the school are familiar with you, but not me. How about this? Let's each find our best basketball friend and have a fair match. As long as you win... you win."

"But if you lose, you're not allowed to show up anywhere An Duoduo is."

The boy narrowed his eyes, then nodded heavily. "Okay! What's your name?"

Li Xu said, "Don't worry about my name, time, or place."

The boy thought for a moment and said, "The time is this Saturday at 10 a.m., and the location... is at the school basketball hall."

The school’s indoor basketball court is an exclusive basketball court for the sports training team and is usually not open to the public.

Li Xu said: "Okay, it's a deal!"

After the boy left, Wen Bo frowned and said, "That guy's name is Lei Hao. Although his basketball skills are rough, he can call on the best basketball players in the school."

"If you need it, I can help you find two people with similar skills, but it may not be enough. You need to find a few more strong ones. Do you know anyone from other schools? The basketball team at No. 6 Middle School is also very strong. I remember that you seem to know someone from No. 6 Middle School, right?"

Li Xu looked at Wen Bo, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, don't worry about this matter. I can find someone myself!"

Then he slowly walked up to An Duoduo and said, "How did I handle this matter?"

An Duoduo burst out laughing and said, "You are so mean. You just told him that if you win, then you win..."

Li Xu couldn't help but burst into laughter. After laughing, his expression became serious. "Don't worry, we won't lose this time!"

An Duoduo thought for a moment and said, "When I was doing physical training in junior high school, I knew a few people who were good at basketball. Some of them are now in No. 6 Middle School, and some are in No. 7 Middle School. Do you want me to call them over?"

Li Xu showed a mysterious smile on his face. "If we want to defeat them, your friends are not very reliable. I need to find some reliable people to handle this. Remember when I told you that I have super powers?"

An Duoduo blinked, "Superpower?"

Li Xu smiled and said, "Yes, money power."

……

This is a battle of great importance.

On Saturday morning, an hour before their agreed time, An Duoduo and Wen Bo arrived at school early.

Wen Bo asked, "What kind of people is Li Xu looking for?"

An Duoduo shook her head and said, "I don't know yet. He didn't tell me."

Wenbo sighed slightly, "Can it be reliable?"

An Duoduo thought about it, recalling how Li Xu was strategizing in their project team. That kind of confidence, the way he kept his word, the way he was in charge of everything, and inexplicably, An Duoduo's heart calmed down.

An Duoduo raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said, "There should be no problem. I believe him!"

Wen Bo looked at An Duoduo meaningfully and said, "Don't get caught up in it."

An Duoduo rolled her eyes, glanced at Wen Bo, then revealed an enigmatic smile and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing this, Wen Bo didn't know what to say anymore.

Soon a minibus drove up and stopped at the school gate.

A group of very tall boys got off the bus. All of them were over 1.9 meters tall. They were wearing sportswear and had slender figures. They were obviously basketball players.

Li Xu, who was sitting at the back, got off the bus together.

Wen Bo looked at the people in the car, his mouth slightly opened. Although these faces were unfamiliar, just from their body shape and height, he knew that they were all tough guys!

There were seven or eight people in the group, including a woman with big wavy hair.

After she got off the bus, she pulled a cigarette out of her pocket and lit it for herself. She looked at Wenbo and An Duoduo in front of her, took out her cigarette case and handed it to them: "Want to smoke?"

An Duoduo quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no."

Suddenly, Wen Bo, who had already extended his hand, withdrew it in disappointment.

Li Xu walked to the front and introduced to An Duoduo and Wen Bo, "This is Sister Na, the coach of the Tang Group basketball team."

An Duoduo and Wen Bo looked at each other, their expressions a little confused.

Li Xu continued to explain, "My dad has a friend named Tang who likes to tinker with basketball. He has a basketball team whose players are all retired professional players."

Even though they are retired from the professional court, and some are even just water cooler players, at their level, the difference in strength between them is not that big. In fact, each of them is at the national level, and they have played basketball for so many years. They are on the same team, so no matter their tacit understanding or tactical qualities, they are far beyond the reach of a group of high school students.

Wenbo's mind went blank. This was too absurd. He felt like he was killing a chicken with a butcher's knife.

Li Xu said confidently, "Didn't Lei Hao want to bully me in basketball? Let him experience what true cruelty is."

Sister Na took a deep puff of cigarette smoke, exhaled a mushroom cloud, flicked the ash, and asked, "Do you want them to lose ugly or lose beautifully?"

Li Xu said, "I hope to seize the opportunity and not hold back, because what if they suddenly explode at the last moment? If I don't win by 50 or 60 points, I won't feel at ease!"

Na nodded, then said to the players behind her, "Did you all hear that?"

……

At the same time, Lei Hao and his friends were warming up on the court.

Mao Xiaobai said, "Don't worry, brother! I'll definitely let you shine today!"

Lei Hao frowned, sighed slightly and said, "Alas, actually I have given up hope now. I feel that girl An Duoduo is too difficult to pursue."

Mao Xiaobai patted Lei Hao on the shoulder and said, "Is it because of that boy who always played basketball with him?"

Lei Hao fell silent.

Mao Xiaobai chuckled twice and said, "Let's do this when the time comes. Provoke him and let him play as well."

"How about we try to make him look bad when we get on stage?"

Lei Bo hesitated for a moment and asked, "Wouldn't this be a bad idea?"

Mao Xiaobai snorted and said, "How can you be so soft-hearted? This concerns your lifelong event!"

Lei Hao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay! Thank you for your hard work, brothers!"

Mao Xiaobai called the others over and said, "Brothers, today's game is of great importance. We must take it seriously. When the time comes, we will do this..."

The richer your imagination is, the more skinny the reality is.

When Li Xu led the athletes into the basketball hall, Lei Hao and the others' faces changed.

How come those guys are so tall and strong? Where did Li Xu get such players?

Li Xu looked at the bewildered expressions of Lei Hao and the others and found them somewhat amused. He slowly walked up to them and said, "I've brought the people. We agreed before that each of us would call the best players we know. Does this agreement still stand? If not, I'll get another group."

Lei Hao could only bite the bullet and accept the challenge. "You don't need to provoke me. I'll take on anyone you call!"

Li Xu smiled and said, "That's good, let's get started!"

There's really not much to say about this game, as it was already messed up in the first quarter.

But everyone kept in mind the instructions of coach Na, and there was no intention of stopping even if the score gap widened.

The score difference was going from 20 to 30 points to 50 points.

At the end, Li Xu saw that it was stable, so he changed into his jersey and ran a few laps.

An Duoduo sat in the audience, watching Li Xu jumping up and down with a smile on her face.

Sister Na came over, looked at An Duoduo curiously and said, "Li Xu cares so much about you?"

An Duoduo blinked and didn't respond.
