Chapter 142-hesitant and cautious

Bruno's POV

"Sorry, teacher."

I furrowed my brows, my voice low, "I'll play properly."

"Hey, that's more like it." Jacob chuckled.

After a sharp whistle, everyone quickly returned to their positions. Order was restored in the crowd.

I slowly rolled up my sleeves. Jacob and Karl were watching me, observing the exposed forearm under my rolled-up sleeves. Beneath the wristband, there was a thin layer of gauze.

Karl looked at the gauze, raising his eyebrow slightly. "Oh, a real injury. I'll go easy on you, catching the ball for you, Xiao Ge."

Jacob began to serve rapidly again, maintaining the tricky angles. He eyed my positioning, deliberately aiming for the far corner. I struggled to return, careful not to touch my own wrist. Each time required several steps to match Jacob's digs.
