Chapter 572 - Say No To Throwing


Chapter 572: Say No To Throwing

“Sorry, I’ve already told you my decision. Stop calling me,” Tiger said, somewhat frustrated.

“Tiger, you have great potential, but potential isn’t power. Even if you don’t agree to our terms, we can still make you lose in the ring. By then, you won’t get anything.”

The voice on the other end was gloomy and threatening.

“Do whatever you like. I’m not scared of you.” Young and hot-headed, Tiger knew no subtlety.

“Remember your words. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you.”

Tiger hung up at once. He would receive four or five such nuisance calls every day.

As a professional boxer, he knew some of the secrets in the field.

Some people would use illegal means to manipulate matches in order to win bets.

Like the person who had just called him. Tiger did not even know who the person was.

But the person had already called him three consecutive times, asking him to lose to his opponents.

They would pay him fifty thousand.

In other words, they wanted him to throw the matches.

Just like how most boxers hated those who would throw a match, Tiger was also disdainful about it.

He wanted to gain fame and fortune through dignified victories.

He also believed that he was powerful enough to get whatever he wanted.

At the same time, he would like to prove his worth to some people.

Chen Zhao and Gaia were definitely among them.

One of these two people had discovered his talents. He had given him another chance to stand in the ring.

The other was his mentor. Gaia’s help was no less than Chen Zhao’s.

Therefore, Tiger did not want to disappoint them.

He wanted to tell them that they had not trusted the wrong person.

That their choice was correct.

“Tiger, where you hiding? Come out now and train.” Gaia’s voice erupted from outside the changing room.

Tiger ran out at once. Gaia widened her eyes at him. “Why were you so slow? Do you think that you can stop training after winning those matches?”

“Sorry, coach. Let’s begin.”

Tiger was particularly serious. As a result, Gaia could not even be lazy.

She even missed the times when she was Chen Zhao’s boxing coach.

Although Chen Zhao was outstanding, he did not have the inspiration to become strong.

He had asked for the training himself, but he would seize all opportunities to be lazy.

At night, everyone else had left.

Gaia was exhausted herself. “Tiger, that’s enough for today.”

“Coach, I would like to practice a bit longer.”

“Then continue yourself. I need to go back. Remember to lock the door,” Gaia said.

Whether an athlete could become successful depended not only on his talents but also on how hardworking he was.

Tiger’s talents had been greatly boosted by Chen Zhao.

He was also sufficiently diligent. Therefore, Gaia was confident that Tiger would certainly succeed.

He would become a superstar in international boxing, starting from the BBL competition this time.

He would conquer all enemies with his strength.

Tiger only started to pack up when it was almost eleven.

He locked the door for Gaia.

This was one of his benefits as Gaia’s student.

He could use the fitness center whenever he wanted to.

In fact, he had the plan of opening a gym himself when he got rich.

Of course, he had to do it somewhere far away.

He knew that Zanla Douglas had opened a gym upstairs.

If he recalled correctly, Zanla Douglas had been beaten up by Chen Zhao right here.

Tiger did not want to be jointly attacked by Chen Zhao and Gaia.

They were two monsters. Even if Tiger could become the world champion, he would not want to be in the same ring as any of them.

Tiger stood by the roadside, quietly waiting for the bus.

He still had zero income at the moment.

All his expenses were supported by Chen Zhao.

Hence, he planned to buy a car as soon as he received his competition prize.

Fortunately, the bus to reach home had very long service hours.

Just then, Tiger’s phone rang again.

“Hello?”

“Tiger, let me ask you one last time. Fifty thousand dollars, lose the matches in the next four days.”

“I don’t care how much you’re offering. I’m not throwing the matches,” Tiger rejected the request righteously.

This time, the other party hung up first.

Just then, a car with its high beams on drove toward him.

Tiger was not paying any attention and the car was extremely fast.

Crash!

Tiger only felt that something was wrong when he was hit.

A few people alighted from the car and approached Tiger.

At the moment, Tiger was lying on the ground, covered in blood.

The few people immediately punched and kicked Tiger.

“Break his arms.”

“Ah…”

Tiger screamed and fell unconscious.

However, the next moment, he was awakened by severe pain.

“Kid, this is what happens when you reject me. I told you, I can make you get nothing. Now, my words have turned into reality. Understand?”

“Chen, something’s happened to Tiger!” It was Gaia’s hurried voice.

Chen Zhao looked at the time. It was four in the morning.

He said in a sleepy tone, “Don’t tell me he raped a girl on the street. I’ll crack his balls myself.”

“No, he’s in the ICU now. He’s been attacked.”

Chen Zhao was alerted at once. “What? What happened?”

“I’m not sure what’s the exact situation either. The police found my number in his phone. They said Tiger’s in the hospital.”

“Why didn’t the police call me? Did he not store my number in his phone?”

“F**k! You’re still in the mood to joke?”

“No, I need to know what’s my position in his mind.”

“Fine, he has recorded your number, but… he’s put your name as Monster.”

“Asshole,” Chen Zhao cursed softly.

“When can you come?”

“I’ll go now.”

Chen Zhao got out of bed quietly. Actually, Fali had already woken up during the call.

“Are you going out?”

“Tiger’s injured. I need to go to the hospital.”

“Alright. Be careful.”

“Love you.” Chen Zhao bent to kiss Fali. Then, he hastily put on his clothes.

When Chen Zhao reached the hospital, he realized that apart from Gaia, there was another familiar person outside the ICU.

“Hey, Ms. Sharan, what a coincidence.” Chen Zhao opened his arms, planning to give Sharan a warm hug.
