Chapter 203 [Brave Heart]

In the evening, the Lakers took a special plane back to Los Angeles, and finally had a rest, and then they played at home in a row without having to fly long distances.

Guo Xu wanted to sleep in, but was woken up by a phone call at half past nine the next day, and the caller ID was Robert Smith, a vulgar name that could not be more vulgar.

There's no such person on the team, huh? Could it be some Hollywood friend of mine? He told me my real name, but I forgot?

Pseudonyms are not uncommon in the entertainment industry. Most celebrities, or celebrities whose names sound very ordinary, use a fake name. Some are to protect their private lives, and some are to make them more "attractive".

For example, Natalie Portman's real name is Nata Lee Hirschler, which looks even stranger than it reads; "Dwayne Johnson"'s real name is Dwayne Douglas Johnson; "Sister Stone" Emma Stone's real name is ......

Well, that's her real name, which translates to "Hey Mom, Stone" in Northeastern.

Guo Xu picked up the phone and chatted awkwardly for a few words, only to remember that this was one of his fans, and the superhero who was hit by a car more than 600 times in the time loop to save the bear child, and finally survived, the most suitable nickname for him is probably "Mantis Man".

Robert said in a pleading tone, "Jason, I have a request I want you to grant, and I want to invite you to lunch. ”

"I'm rubbing, the tone of your voice is a little sharp...... You're finally bent? Guo Xu Khan said.

Robert hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, it's because I told my girlfriend that I know you, she is also a basketball fan, and she really wants to meet you, is that okay?" She is a Chinese student. ”

"That's it? Just kidding, right? Guo Xu couldn't believe it.

"How can this be a joke? I just wanted to surprise her, by the way to prove that I was not lying, although she kept saying that she believed that I knew you, but she must be suspicious in her heart if she couldn't meet anyone. ”

"Okay, I'll go, can I bring a female companion with me? Eating with a straight man of steel like you, I'm afraid it's going to be stuffy at noon. Guo Xu couldn't cry or laugh.

"Of course you can, thank you, what is a straight man of steel?" Robert asked with a smile.

"It's your kind of person."

If other fans say that they are invited to dinner, Guo Xu will refuse, even if the other party is a beauty. Robert is an exception, Guo Xu feels that this is a rare good person, and people who are willing to sacrifice themselves to save strangers are too rare in this era, even if his brain is a little abnormal, Guo Xu is willing to give him face.

After a while, Robert's text message was sent to Guo Xu's mobile phone, saying that the place to eat turned out to be the famous two-Michelin-starred restaurant Urasaa in Beverly Hills, a Japanese restaurant.

Japanese food occupies a high position in the United States, and it is known as an otherworldly dining experience, and the gorgeous and dazzling knife laying makes many people feel that such a meal will cost more money. But Guo Xu never thought so, and he believes most Chinese will not think so.

Guo Xu is very researched about eating, and he has been to this restaurant when he was in a time loop, and the ingredients are fresh and delicious, but there are hundreds of other restaurants in the world that offer more creative food and better service. What's more, the price of this Urasaa is about 10 times that of a one-Michelin-starred French restaurant, and it may be in the top 10 most expensive restaurants in the country.

If O'Neill invites guests to a restaurant of this level, Guo Xu will go without saying a word, and O'Neill can't wait to wait for a red light on the side of the road to play with money. Fans treat different people, what if Robert chose this place because he valued meeting him?

Rich people are stingy and say that they can live, and rich people are generous and call for slapping a swollen face to be fat, Guo Xu doesn't want to take advantage of this kind of fat person.

So, he called Robert and proposed to change the restaurant.

"Robert, can I change the place for dinner? My girlfriend and I are not very fond of Japanese food. And if your girlfriend is Chinese, she probably doesn't like it very much, you can ask her. ”

"Huh? I'm sorry I didn't think it through, but how about going to Alexander's Steakhouse? Robert asked.

"Okay." Guo Xu found that Robert was not an ordinary person, and the name of the famous restaurant came as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was a regular customer at first glance, and there was no pressure to consume.

This is a steakhouse, from the moment it opened in Los Angeles, it carried a "king style", and easily won the top three positions in the Los Angeles steak industry with a variety of imported top-quality Wagyu beef.

Guo Xu called Megan Fox to drive to the appointment together, found the reserved seat under the guidance of the waiter, and met Robert and his girlfriend Wang Jingjing.

The decoration of the restaurant is very modern, giving people a simple and elegant feeling, but the overall atmosphere is relaxed and lively, and there is no need to pretend to be a gentleman and chat softly.

Robert asked Guo Xu to be the main orderer, and Guo Xu skillfully featured 155 US dollars of top-quality wagyu beef, foie gras, sea urchin tea bowl steaming, vanilla ice cream poured with chocolate juice, etc., but he didn't order wine, and the four of them didn't drink it.

The ice cream was specially ordered for Megan, she liked this the most, and her eyes were crooked when she heard Guo Xu laugh after ordering the meal.

In the time loop, Guo Xu is a frequent customer of this restaurant, he is so familiar that he knows what dishes are the most popular.

The two sides introduced themselves, and Guo Xu found that this international student girl was a little familiar, and asked curiously, "How did you meet?" ”

Wang Jingjing said in fluent English: "One day in the café, a boxer harassed me, and it was Rob who helped me, and then we met. ”

"Fernando Vargas? Did you really go that day? ”

Guo Xu immediately remembered the boxing champion who had PK with him, although the other party drank a little bit that day, it was not easy for him to defeat the boxing champion, and it was an experience that he could remember for a lifetime. Sometimes he regretted not going to Vargas PK after the time loop ended, something he wanted to do but didn't take the risk.

As long as he wins against Vargas, he will definitely make headlines and become a representative of tough guys in the NBA. Now, no matter how close he defends, the fans feel that he is soft.

Robert laughed: "Yes, you saved the kid at that time, and told me that Vargas often molested young women, so I found a reporter to go around there, but I didn't expect to meet him." It's all been reported, haven't you watched the news? ”

"Uh...... I went to play away from home, I didn't pay attention, you managed to expose him? ”

This is a good thing, but Guo Xu thinks that people like Vargas may not care very much, because he has a bad reputation.

Wang Jingjing smiled: "Not only that, Wags pulled me, Rob ran over and pushed him away, and confronted people...... And then they did it, and I thought he was so brave. ”

Guo Xu and Megan were shocked and looked at each other.

Guo Xu asked in disbelief: "You can also PK the boxing champion?" ”

He has been practicing boxing for a long time, he is a leader in amateurism, and he should be able to make do with a dozen fights in the professional circle, he is not Vargas's opponent, he only won once by relying on the opponent's light enemy and drunkenness.

No matter how you look at it, this person in front of you is an ordinary person, with no muscle lines, how can he fight with the boxing champion?

Robert scratched his head embarrassedly: "I just pushed each other a few times with him, and then he punched me, and I didn't know anything, and I woke up in the hospital, and it took me several days to be discharged." ”
