Chapter 137: Injuries
Kylie Jenner sat dumbfounded on the hospital bed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć InfoEven when the nurse treated her wounds, she felt as if she didn't feel pain, and she didn't even blink her eyes.
Kylie Jenner's heart was moved, but at this time she was more afraid. Afraid, Zhao Wei will not be able to continue playing basketball from now on because of himself. If that's the case, it's himself who ruined his entire career. Even if Zhao Wei forgave her, she couldn't forgive herself.
Zhao Wei's hideous wounds across the entire palm of her hand kept flashing in her mind, and blood fell drop by drop, hitting her heart.
At that moment, she was so frightened that she couldn't breathe. If Zhao Wei hadn't woken her up in time, she might have fainted due to suffocation.
Pull!
The curtain on the hospital bed was pulled back.
Zhao Wei's tall figure appeared in front of Kylie Jenner. Because the shirt on the outside has been completely destroyed, Zhao Wei is only wearing a sleeveless T-shirt, and the strong muscles on his arms are sharp and angular, giving people a sense of security.
Zhao Wei walked over and found that Kylie Jenner didn't seem to see herself.
His mouth pursed, showed a warm smile, and said, "What do you want?" ā
Yes!
Kylie Jenner was startled as if she had just woken up from a dream.
At this time, the nurse who was treating Kylie Jenner's wound walked out with interest.
"Your hands?" Kylie Jenner was slightly stunned when she saw Zhao Wei's warm smile, but then asked with slightly red eyes.
"It's okay!" Zhao Wei smiled and raised his right hand, which was wrapped in thick gauze.
Seeing the right hand that had been wrapped in a bear's paw, Kylie Jenner's eyes turned even redder. In the moving eyes, Liu Bo flashed, slowly dripping down the corners of his eyes, as translucent as a pearl.
Da!
The tears did not fall to the ground. hit Zhao Wei's palm, kind and warm.
Zhao Wei gently stroked Kylie Jenner's hair. Kylie Jenner just quietly looked at the teenager in front of her who would do everything to protect herself tonight. His hands were big and warm, giving him a sense of security that he wanted to lean on and had never felt before.
Thinking of this, tears dripped from the corners of his eyes even more uncontrollably.
Zhao Wei was stunned, and in a panic, he took away the hand that was caressing Kelly Jenner's hair. He wanted to comfort Kylie Jenner, but he didn't expect Kylie Jenner to cry even more.
Zhao Wei stood in front of Kylie Jenner, spinning in place in a panic.
With a snort, looking at Zhao Wei's cute appearance, Kylie Jenner finally burst into tears and laughed, but then asked softly, "Can you still play basketball with your hands?" ā
When Zhao Wei heard this, he finally knew why Kylie Jenner was like that. Haha smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a little flesh injury, the doctor said that it will recover in a few days." ā
Kylie Jenner's guilty heart was only slightly calmed down at this time, and her emotions calmed down.
But in this way, the two fell silent for a while.
Zhao Wei stood there stunned, while Kylie Jenner was slightly red and slightly bowed like a mimosa bud. The atmosphere became awkward.
"Zhao Wei!" A soft cry rang out behind him.
The atmosphere was broken in an instant. Zhao Wei turned back in some panic and smiled embarrassedly.
The person who came was Lucy, who had heard the news.
Lucy's originally fair skin was slightly red because of anger at this time, and the depths of her clear Skyclave eyes were burning with raging fire and stared at Zhao Wei.
"Lucy, you're here." Zhao Wei smiled awkwardly.
Lucy didn't answer him, stepped forward quickly, grabbed Zhao Wei's injured right hand at once, and asked, "What's the matter?" ā
The right hand was held by Lucy, and Zhao Wei, who was in pain, bared his teeth.
Kylie Jenner was in a hurry and was about to step forward. But she stopped.
Lucy hurriedly let go of Zhao Wei's right hand, and asked with some blame but more worry: "Is it serious?" ā
"Flesh wounds, heal in a few days." Zhao Weiwei grinned.
"Heartless look, then your ......" Looking at his appearance, Lucy was angry and blurted out. But before she finished speaking, she was gagged by Zhao Wei.
A few muffs, but I didn't say it.
Zhao Wei secretly winked at Lucy.
Lucy turned her head to see Kylie Jenner fiddling with her dirty clothes with her head buried in her chest.
"It's you again!" Lucy raised her eyebrows, her eyes flashed with disgust, and she shouted.
"I'm sorry!" Kylie Jenner's voice was full of guilt, and her head was buried deep in her chest.
"You..." Lucy wanted to scold her a few words, but when she saw Zhao Wei's pleading eyes, she finally swallowed back, "Hey! Lucy turned her head angrily and stopped looking at Kylie Jenner. She was afraid that she couldn't help but hit her for a while, so Zhao Wei might be angry.
"I'm sorry." Kylie Jenner spoke quickly again, and then ran outside.
"Hey!" Zhao Wei stretched out his hand and shouted, wanting to catch up, but was stopped by Lucy's look.
"If you still care about others, you should care about yourself first." Lucy glared at Zhao Wei angrily.
"I'm worried that she'll run into bad people when she goes out." Zhao Wei scratched his head embarrassedly and said.
"Cut." Lucy looked at him even more angrily, and gave him a blank look, but still said, "Her sister has already arrived, and is downstairs." You're still going out? ā
"Ugh." Zhao Wei was stunned, then waved his hand and said, "No." ā
"What the hell is going on?" Lucy asked in a slow voice at this time.
Zhao Wei told Lucy what he knew.
After hearing this, Lucy frowned, paced back and forth in front of Zhao Wei, looked at Zhao Wei suspiciously, and asked, "Is it really just a robbery?" ā
"I guess so." Zhao Wei nodded in disbelief.
"Do you still know the person who sent you the letter?" Lucy asked.
"Well, it's vague, but you can recognize him just by seeing me." Zhao Wei thought for a while and said confidently.
"It's easy, just meet all of Kylie Jenner's bodyguards." Lucy's eyebrows furrowed.
"Next time. After all, she was so frightened. Zhao Wei said with concern.
"When did my Zhao Wei care so much about people." Lucy obviously teased, "Then when can you care so much about your sister." ā
"My sister is so powerful, where do you need me to care." Zhao Wei said with a smile.
When Lucy heard Zhao Wei's words, a trace of disappointment flashed in the depths of her deep and clear eyes, and she smiled, "Let's go." Let's see what you explain on the team's side. ā
Hearing this, Zhao Wei felt a headache. Although I confidently said to Kylie Jenner that it was okay just now, the truth is actually very troublesome. The Lakers' current preseason game is the time to inspect the players and exercise the lineup, and Zhao Wei is not in a high position, and he has suffered this injury. Not only may they be branded as undisciplined and thorny, but they are also very likely to fall out of the rotation completely. At the end of the preseason, it is not impossible to be cut by the team.
"Let's be honest." Zhao Wei said helplessly.
"Every time I meet her, it's not good. In the future, you will keep me away from her. Lucy said angrily.
Although Zhao Wei didn't speak, the look in his eyes obviously didn't listen to Lucy's words.
Seeing his distraction, Lucy let out a long sigh and did not continue to talk about him.
When the two walked side by side to the first floor, they did see Kylie Jenner's sister being surrounded by a group of reporters downstairs, but he didn't see Kylie Jenner.
"Hey, she didn't come down." Zhao Wei sighed lightly, left Lucy, who was walking towards the back door, and walked straight to the main entrance.
Lucy found that Zhao Wei was gone, turned her head to look, Liu Bo flashed in her eyes, gritted her back molars and rushed over, and a storm smashed on Zhao Wei's head.
"Oops!" Zhao Wei covered his head in pain and half-squatted on the ground.
"Come with me." Lucy bit it out word by word.
"I just wanted to go over and ask if Kylie Jenner is back!" Zhao Wei said with a grin.
Lucy was spitting fire in her eyes and glaring at Zhao Wei through gritted teeth.
Zhao Wei was confused. Lucy has been a generous and empathetic person since they met, and I don't know why she has such a big insight into Kylie Jenner this time.
"Kylie Jenner and I are just regular friends." Zhao Wei explained, but this kind of thing, he doesn't know that the more he describes it, the darker it gets!
Lucy snorted angrily, ignored Zhao Wei and turned her head away.
"Lucy." Zhao Wei shouted, but there was no response. Turning his head to look at Khloe Kardashian's position again, but in the end he didn't go over and quickly chased after Lucy.
The next day, Zhao Wei came to the stadium depressed. Ever since Lucy got angry last night, she really didn't bother with herself. Even I usually try my best to eat the food I cooked, but I didn't come out to eat it when I made it today.
When he came to the door of the stadium, Zhao Wei was very nervous. After a few deep breaths, Zhao Wei mustered up the courage to walk into the arena.
He didn't go straight to the locker room, he went straight to Luke Wharton's dressing room.
As expected, Luke Wharton did not look good when he saw Zhao Wei's injured right hand. This is already very angry for Luke Wharton, who usually wears a smile all the time.
"Coach." Zhao Wei wanted to apologize, but was interrupted by a wave from Luke Wharton.
"It's also a kind of growth to take care of your injuries and sit on the sidelines and watch your teammates play." Luke Wharton said, looking up.
With that, Luke Wharton got up and walked to the court. Zhao Wei followed behind Luke Wharton with his head down.
After the teammates heard that Zhao Wei was injured, they all comforted Zhao Wei.
Everyone started training, and Zhao Wei walked to the sidelines lonely. At this time, he realized how uncomfortable it was to see others struggling on the field and sitting lonely on the sidelines.
"Zhao Wei." Luke Wharton came to Zhao Wei's side at this time.
"Coach." Zhao Wei said guiltily.
"What does basketball mean to you?" Luke Wharton asked, staring at Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei didn't expect Luke Wharton to ask this, and he was stunned for a while. I wanted to answer that I was because of my hobby, and that the NBA could help me get out of a difficult life, but somehow, when the words came to my mouth, I opened my mouth a few times, but I didn't say anything.
Luke Wharton smiled gently again and said, "When I got to the NBA, basketball was one of my hobbies. Why not be able to engage in your hobby and make money at the same time. The people who think this way of thinking are the vast majority of people in the NBA, but the vast majority of people occupy all the role player positions in the NBA. There are also those who have a simpler reason and become millionaires in order to become rich overnight. These people also ended up being role players. Whichever team needs to run to the team as a piece of the puzzle. They have nothing to do with the Glory, they just want to stay in the NBA and get a good salary. There is no vision for their future, because in this business alliance, they are just a pawn and can be traded at any time. Today they are still fighting with their teammates, and tomorrow they will be their opponents. However, there are a few examples where they are talented enough to stand out, but stars are only their ceiling. After the year of playing or when you are not compatible with the coach, the future is also uncertain for you. Of course, there was a second reason why I got into the NBA. ā
Zhao Wei was slightly puzzled, but Luke Wharton's words had already moved him.
"That's my father--- Bill Wharton."
Bill Walton (born November 5, 1952 in California) is a former American professional basketball player who played as a center for the Portland Trail Blazers, San Diego Clippers (now Los Angeles Clippers) and Boston Celtics from 1974 to 1987.
At the end of the 1986-87 season, Bill Walton announced his retirement. In February 1990 he tried to make a comeback, but without success. During his 13-year NBA career, Bill Walton won two NBA championships (1977, 1986); 1 NBA Finals MVP (1977); 1 regular season MVP (1978); 1-time NBA All-Team (1978); 1 All-Team 3-time (1977); 2 All-Defensive Team (1977, 1978); 2-time NBA All-Star (1977; 1978ļ¼ļ¼ Sixth Man of the Year (1986, the only person to win both Sixth Man of the Year and MVP of the regular season); In 1993, he was inducted into the Nai Smith Basketball Hall of Fame; In 1996, he was selected as one of the top 50 superstars in the NBA.
Thinking of Bill Wharton's achievements, Zhao Wei's face showed envy.
Luke Wharton continued: "My father was a former basketball star, I was born as a second-generation star, and I have received countless people's attention since I was a child. Everybody thought I should accept my father's mantle and play in the NBA again and achieve great things. So, although I loved basketball since I was a child, I hated basketball at the same time. Because basketball has also brought me a lot of abuse. I didn't have my father's abilities. When I actually set foot in the NBA's first game, I got three fouls quickly on the court, and the rest of the time I had to sit on the sidelines and watch my teammates play. That made the invective around him even more violent. There was only one thought left in my head at the time, and that was to give up. But then Kobe Bryant came to me, and he only asked me one question, which was, 'What does basketball mean to you?' At this point, Luke Wharton seemed to think of some self-deprecating smile, "My answer was that I wanted to be able to follow in my father's footsteps." ā
Luke Wharton's thoughts seemed to return to that period, and he said with a blurred look in his eyes, regardless of whether Zhao Wei listened to him at this time or not: "That kind of answer was immediately roared by Kobe Bryant." He didn't hesitate to call me an idiot. Then he said to me word by word, 'Basketball is my life for me.' If anyone uses it against me, it's threatening my life. I'm going to fight back against all odds. āā
After Luke Wharton finished speaking, he retracted his thoughts and looked at Zhao Wei, but he was stunned. Because Zhao Wei looked at the court in front of him with complicated and tangled eyes at this time. (To be continued.) )
