Chapter 119: Two Different People (1/10)
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, the largest and busiest airport in all of California. Not only in California, but also in the United States, the airport is the second largest airport in the United States and the fourth largest in the world. It can be said that this is one of the transportation hubs of the whole world.
Flights from all over the world land here, and people from all over the world land on American soil at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
In the taxi, the cheerful driver plays his favorite jazz music. But the slow rhythm of jazz still can't ease Yiyang's impatience.
Outside the window, there was a long queue of cars, all of which could not move. As one of the busiest airports in the world, the road from downtown Dallas to the airport is also often plagued by traffic jams.
"Hey, you shouldn't be in a hurry, right?" The taxi driver saw Yiyang in the back seat restless through the rearview mirror, so he asked casually. The driver, who had just received Yiyang's autograph, didn't want to snub this special passenger.
"Not in a hurry, but ...... When will it be opened? Yiyang's personality made him not used to showing his impatience on his face and words, but the experienced taxi driver still saw the young man's impatience.
"I'm as fast as I could, I said, I'm the fastest taxi driver in all of Dallas!" The middle-aged man shifted gears and began to weave through the gaps between the cars.
A tall woman was standing in the middle of the crowd with a suitcase in tow, looking left and right, as if waiting for someone to appear.
Every now and then, there would always be a few people who would go up and take a picture with Vignarie. Although in the United States, European basketball players are not very famous, let alone European women's basketball players. But as an "Internet celebrity" player who is quite popular on the Internet, Vignarie is also famous in Dallas.
Waves of fans left satisfied, but Vignarie still didn't wait for the person she wanted to see. Finally, an impatient Asian man rushes into the airport, also looking around for something.
Before Yiyang found Vignali, countless passers-by had already rushed up and took photos with Yiyang to ask for autographs. Although Yiyang is not a superstar in the NBA, at least in Dallas, this guy's popularity is still very high. After all, he's now an indispensable and important member of the Mavericks.
Finally, after watching Yiyang also send away waves of fans. Vignari couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the boy in front of her with an impatient expression.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, I just ......"
"It's okay, let's go!" After Vignali finished speaking, she directly pulled Yiyang's arm and collapsed forward, and at this time, the surrounding fans raised their mobile phones with great interest.
Yiyang subconsciously shrank and let himself escape from Vignarie's "magic grasp". In Italy, it's normal for a girl to travel with friends like this, but in Yiyang's opinion, this action seems a little too intimate.
"Haha, are you so shy? What about your car? Vignari laughed as she walked out of the airport, only to find that Yiyang didn't seem to have any intention of going to the parking lot.
"I haven't bought a car yet." Yiyang said, raising his hand to stop a taxi.
Vignali did not change her good impression of Yiyang because of this, at least this Chinese is more real than those men who drive luxury cars and wear expensive suits to pursue themselves.
The taxi shuttled on the highway, and Yiyang naturally didn't know what to say, but Vignarie's mouth never stopped. With her by Yiyang's side, the two never seem to be embarrassed because they don't have a topic.
Italians always seem to have a lot to say, especially when it comes to people who have a crush on them.
"Facing Chris. How did Paul feel? ”
"Is it nerve-wracking to play in the spotlight of the NBA?"
"How long have you practiced elbow passing? What the!? Not specifically trained? Oh my God, you must be kidding, right!? ”
"Actually, I don't like Adidas, my favorite basketball shoe brand is AJ. By the way, if you wear AJ, you must look good too! Well, let's go to the mall and buy some pairs of AJ's sneakers later! ”
"Hey, if you hurt your finger, will you keep training?"
From Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport to downtown Dallas, counting the traffic jams, it took them a full hour. But in this hour, Yiyang and Vignari didn't stay cold for even a minute.
Yiyang found that the tall Italian woman next to him was really very different. She wouldn't talk to Yiyang about bags, cosmetics and garage yachts, and if she did, Yiyang might have shut up a long time ago. Vignari and Yiyang talk about what they share in love, basketball. For a guy like Yiyang, basketball seems to be the best shortcut to get closer to him.
From the chat, Yiyang also got to know Vignari on a deeper level. If you think that this women's basketball player is only popular by virtue of his face and figure, you are very wrong.
People will always say that if this girl doesn't go to modeling, she is simply blind to this shape and figure. However, before stepping into professional basketball, Wignari actually worked as a model for a while. In 2006, she participated in the Italian beauty contest and won the third place.
However, what makes Yiyang feel that this girl is different the most is that she does not forget her original intention.
Even though Vignarie's modeling career was already going well, she still stuck to her basketball path. When talking to her about training, Yiyang also learned that Vignari would spend 6 hours a day on the training court and 6 hours a day training, which is something that many NBA players can't do.
On the basketball court, compared to other tall girls, Vignarie's thinness is even more distressing. But once she enters the game, the power of this small body can make her dominate the entire women's basketball arena!
This indomitable spirit and love for basketball seem to make Yiyang see himself behind this beautiful girl.
"Does my face look better than the night view in Dallas?" Seeing Yiyang staring at him blankly, Vignari smiled generously. Italians, however, are not shy in such situations.
"Uh...... Has it arrived!? Let's get off! Seeing that the car had stopped at its destination, Yiyang hurriedly took out his wallet and prepared to settle the bill.
"Hey, I said I wouldn't charge your fare, that signature is enough." The taxi driver looked at Yiyang, who was a little panicked, and couldn't help but grin. It turns out that Tanhuaxiu, who is so calm on the basketball court that it doesn't match his age, is still a little ghost in life. In front of a beautiful girl, his wise mind will also have a short circuit.
"Thank you!" After Yiyang finished speaking, he immediately got out of the car door. Of course, Yiyang, who has become quite clumsy now, also knocked his head.
Vignali looked at the cute Asian and held out her right hand.
Yiyang looked at the fans holding their mobile phones around him, and with a red face, he also stretched out his hand and pulled Vignari out of the car.
Passers-by in the surrounding area applauded and whistled. Fooling around, this kind of thing the masses like to do the most.
"Let's go." When Vignali got out of the car and spoke to Yiyang, the somewhat wooden Chinese found that he was still holding Vignary's hand.
He opened his fingers lightly, his face a little embarrassed. After that he quickly turned around and headed towards a Secho. Rosie walked to the high-heeled shop.
"Where are you going?" Vignari didn't follow, but shouted behind Yiyang.
"You're not...... Don't you want to go around? ”
"Let's not go there, go to the other side!" Vignali pointed to the AJ sneaker store across the street from the heel store, which was exactly where Vignarie dreamed of going.
While other women are scolding the losers in collecting sneakers, Vignari may have collected more sneakers than you......
Yiyang smiled, and it was the most natural smile. He and Vignali walked towards the basketball shoe store, where the conversation between the two would probably be gushing over.
A different girl, with such a friend, Yiyang seems to be getting more and more relaxed.
This "date" seems to be much more pleasant than I imagined.
