「After school.」
His buddies excitedly ran up to Li Xun.
"Boss, I brought a football today. How about we go play some Cuju?"
Li Xun hadn't played Cuju in a while, so he nodded in agreement.
He had only taken a couple of steps when a timid voice sounded from behind him.
"Um, Young Master…"
Li Xun turned to see Ke Lang.
Ke Lang felt his heart pound uneasily under his gaze, but he braced himself and continued speaking.
"Thank you for helping me."
Li Xun raised an eyebrow. "Want to play Cuju with us? We're short one player."
A game of Cuju usually required twelve people, six per team. They only had five, so they were indeed one person short.
The invitation was so sudden that Ke Lang was taken aback.
He said, flustered, "But I don't know how to play Cuju."
Li Xun's buddies immediately crowded around, flanking Ke Lang, and said with wide grins.
"Cuju is simple. You just kick a ball around. You'll pick it up in no time. Come on, let's go play together!"
