Chapter 185: On The Court
Fang Liu wasn’t familiar with basketball. She only knew that two teams competed for the ball to put it into the basket, and whichever team scored the most won.
Fang Liu had never watched sports channels on television before, and she didn’t find basketball to be interesting. But when she spectated the game, she felt its charm.
Fang Liu realized that basketball was a strength, speed, reaction, and judgment test. Everyone on the court looked like the most dazzling protagonist in an anime as sweat poured down their faces.
Fang Liu’s blood boiled as she watched. She could not help but applaud and cheer for the employees, “That was awesome! Wow, another goal! Watch out, don’t let them catch up!”
…
Mo Yu helplessly watched as the excited Fang Liu cheered beside him. ‘Has she never watched a basketball match before? What’s so exciting about it? Why is she so excited?’
Fang Liu was only a fence-sitter. She cheered for anyone that scored a basket, regardless of which team they were on.
Since Sun Kai was the best player in the stadium and had scored the most goals, Fang Liu spent most of her time cheering for Sun Kai. “Wow, player number fifteen is great! He scored again!”
Mo Yu’s expression instantly changed the moment Fang Liu said this.
Sun Kai did not expect Mrs. Mo to cheer for him. He was a straightforward person and didn’t notice anything strange. After all, when he was in school, many more girls cheered for him compared to this time.
But when Sun Kai heard Mrs. Mo’s gentle and crisp voice cheering for him, he felt a burst of energy fill his entire body. Sun Kai wiped his sweat and raised his finger as he retreated to his side of the court. The boy exuded extreme coolness.
Mo Yu contemptuously sneered when he saw Sun Kai peacocking. However, Fang Liu was unfamiliar with the game. She only felt that Sun Kai’s actions looked cool. Fang Liu was utterly immersed in the intense atmosphere of the basketball game. She completely forgot that her husband was sitting next to her.
Without thinking, she shouted, “Go number fifteen!” The corner of Mo Yu’s snickering mouth immediately stiffened.
‘No way! That sweaty kid managed to impress my wife?’ Mo Yu said in his heart as the veins on his head started throbbing.
Xiao Ping abruptly stopped the match before it was even half-time. The crowd looked over in puzzlement and heard Xiao Ping say with an excited expression, “Mr. Mo wants to participate in the match!”
As soon as Xiao Ping finished speaking, Mo Yu, who had changed into his sports attire, walked onto the court.
Fang Liu was stunned when she saw Mo Yu entering the court. She immediately turned to look at the empty seat behind her. “W-What? When did he leave? He didn’t even say goodbye to me.”
When Mo Yu stepped onto the court, the female employees gasped. Even though they knew that Mrs. Mo was present, they couldn’t help but squeal and cheer crazily.
“Oh my goodness, isn’t Mr. Mo so handsome in his jersey?”
“I-I think I’m about to faint.”
“He’s so handsome! I can’t take it anymore! I’m going to work at the Mo Corporation for the rest of my life!”
“I want to beg Mr. Mo to drill me as hard as possible in his next project if you know what I mean!”

Fang Liu listened to the female employee’s murmurs but wasn’t unhappy. She didn’t expect Mo Yu to be so popular among the girls. Fang Liu looked up and noticed that Mo Yu had a different demeanor from before.
Mo Yu’s gaze was icier than ever, and his mind was utterly focused. He exuded a dangerous aura. The atmosphere on the court that Sun Kai initially dominated changed drastically.
Mo Yu chose the red team, which opposed Sun Kai’s blue team. One of Sun Kai’s teammates laughed bitterly and bumped his shoulder into Sun Kai’s. “Mr. Mo is probably looking for revenge since his wife cheered for you just now.”
Sun Kai was stunned before he understood what was happening. However, he was not afraid. Instead, he looked at Mo Yu with excitement. Sun Kai knew that Mo Yu was the undisputed king of the business world.
But this was a basketball court and not an office. Sun Kai was the star player on his school’s basketball team, and he had brought them to victory two years in a row. He was the king of the basketball court.
It was now king versus king. Who would win in this match?
Sun Kai’s competitive nature suppressed his fears. Sun Kai smiled and said, “All right, let’s do this! I’m not afraid of Mr. Mo!”
The competition then resumed.
Mo Yu and Sun Kai’s muscles were tense, but their auras differed. The two seemed to be focused, and neither of them was nervous.
Fang Liu did not look at anyone else as soon as Mo Yu appeared on the court. There was only Mo Yu, who was as noble and commanding as a God in her eyes.
