West Coast of the United States.

The ocean-view apartment that DeMarcus Cousins bought in San Diego is not a luxury for an NBA player who is expensive and already loves to buy and buy.

This sea-view apartment building is white with glass curtain walls and has more than 40 floors high. Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun followed the address, and the car was parked outside the first floor of the building, and there was a soft beach across the asphalt road on the left. The lobby is decorated simply and luxuriously, with white as the main color and flowing gold accents, and some glass walls make the whole lobby space larger, and several sets of stylish minimalist leather sofas and chairs are scattered in the lounge area circled by irregularly shaped carpets. The air conditioning in the lobby is full of air-conditioning, and the harsh summer and humid air are blown like this, as if you can't lift your head to enter the door.

Yang Yiming received a four-digit visitor password directly on his mobile phone, and he entered the password on the panel in front of the elevator hall, and an elevator quickly stopped in front of them, taking them directly to the 32nd floor where the Cousins apartment is located.

The elevator doors opened again, and DeMarcus Cousins was already standing at the door of the apartment, greeted them warmly with open arms (and chest hair under the vest):

"My Chinese friend—"

"DeMarcus, it's been a long time. How is everything? You're a good place. Yang Yiming hugged Cousins and greeted each other.

"Not bad, indeed. Come in and have a look - eh, you don't need to change your shoes, just come in - the sea view, the big floor-to-ceiling glass, the big jump, I took a fancy to it at a glance. Cousins led Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun to the large floor-to-ceiling glass that spanned two floors, and pointed to the bay scenery outside the building.

His apartment is a split-level design, the first floor is a reception and dining area, and the second floor is a sleeping and rest area, although the overall area is not large, it is not an exaggerated mansion with ten bedrooms and eight bathrooms, but it does seem transparent and comfortable no matter up and down or front and back.

"It was great. I've always dreamed of having a room like this. Yu Xiaochun turned 360 degrees in the center of the room and praised sincerely.

"I see there's a 'Trump' sign in front of the door downstairs, is that Trump?"

"That's right, it's our president's Trump. Developed by his real estate company-" Cousins put one on the sofa in the living room, propped his hands on the backrest, and reminded Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun that they could go to the refrigerator in the kitchen to get drinks by themselves, while saying: "I didn't like him at first, but after taking a fancy to this house, I was a little hesitant because it was developed by Trump... What about the two of you? ”

"The two of us?" Yu Xiaochun looked at Yang Yiming and said, "We don't seem to have a good impression of him." Anyway, it feels a little stupid, silly. I don't seem to be afraid of people watching jokes - plus the current Sino-US trade war..."

Yang Yiming also shook his head, expressing his dissent to President Trump.

"Hmm. I used to be like you both, and I didn't like Trump either, thinking he was a fool. Later, I slowly realized that he may not be a fool. He's not just not a fool, he's probably smart: pretending to be stupid is just a means for him..."

"How does it sound like you're describing yourself...", Yang interrupted Cousins and interjected.

"Then he's much better than me." Cousins chuckled, then said, "I'm just going to be completely self-willed." You see that I am arrogant, and I have enough temper, and then I am waiting to be fined. Unlike Trump, he also looks like a pusher, but in the end..."

"Fined us so much money." Yang Yiming took Cousins' words and pointed the finger at the intensifying Sino-US trade war just mentioned.

"I don't see it that way. I'm a rough guy, I imagine everything like playing on the court. It is precisely because the United States and China are two evenly matched opponents that they will inevitably pull out and fight each other, separating the high and low and the strong and the weak. If it were someone else, there might be no fight at all. The way you want to win my respect, in addition to defeating me, is to prove that you are qualified in this contest and survive..."

DeMarcus Cousins actually threw out an unheard-of "adversary theory" on the US-China trade war, which also scared Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun. However, seeing that the two did not respond to this, Cousins quickly changed the topic:

"Eh, you two, what delicious food did you bring me this time?!"

Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun prepared Chinese food for Cousin this time is spring rolls. The spring rolls are stacked in delicate food boxes, with five layers and four or five layers. For the first time in New Orleans, Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun brought Chinese dumplings, which were well received by Cousins, and this spring roll can be regarded as another heart of the two.

Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun find a well-known spring roll restaurant in San Diego's Chinatown, where diners can choose from more than a dozen kinds of fillings. Thinking that Cousins was still recovering from a foot injury, and that the spring rolls themselves were fried foods and the calories would be high, they deliberately chose a combination of fresh vegetables and seafood, with a small amount of mashed potatoes and minced beef, so that the store wrapped them in spring rolls, fried golden and crispy, and put them in a food box at just the right temperature inside and out, and specially asked for a thermal bag, which went straight to Cousins' house from Chinatown.

"Wow, it's delicious, it's hot, it's hot!" Cousins, who couldn't wait, grabbed a spring roll with his fingers and stuffed it whole into his mouth as if by magic. He ate it heartily, but he was also obviously burned by the well-kept spring rolls, and he blew into his mouth as he chewed it.

"No one seems to be robbing you, DeMarcus."

"No, no, I'm going to try it too." Yu Xiaochun unfolded a pair of disposable chopsticks and gestured to pick up a spring roll from the food box.

"It's all mine!" Cousins slapped Yu Koharu's chopsticks off, and simply picked up the food box containing the spring rolls and held it in his arms.

I saw DeMarcus Cousins, a big sunspot in his early 7 feet, with a face like black wood, a gloomy color between his eyebrows, and a fierce look in his eyes. His body, recuperating from injuries and illness, was thick and round, like a simple giant in the cartoon who was slow and purposeful, wearing a white hurdle vest and big beach pants, revealing two arms thicker than ordinary people's thighs, and finally just to protect the one in his arms-

A box of spring rolls.

"Is it really that good?"

"You bought it yourself, don't you know if it's delicious or not?"

"I bought it and brought it to you directly, we haven't had time to taste it yet. Share it, DeMarcus. Yang Yiming deliberately provoked the other party.

"That's not good, since they've all been given to me, they're now completely at my disposal." Cousins tightened his grip on the box of spring rolls.

"They? You don't know the name of the food. ”

"It doesn't matter what the name is."

"Is it delicious?"

"That's right, it's delicious—" Cousins covered the box and face with his right arm while the two were unprepared, swallowed another spring roll, and chewed it heavily.

Seeing that Cousins was so protective of food, he couldn't help but arouse Yang Yiming's desire to challenge. I must find a way to snatch the food from his hands...

"That's right, DeMarcus."

"What's wrong?" The other party looked at Yang Yiming vigilantly, and did not forget to withdraw the box to his side a few points.

"I seem to feel-" Yang Yiming deliberately frowned, looked up and down a few times, and said, "Are you fat again?" ”

There was a dead silence in the flat-floor apartment with a sea view.

"Ahhhh Then Cousins screamed, almost shattering the floor-to-ceiling glass windows!
