"Wow...... Addison, look at these people! That's a lot! They're all crowded at the entrance of the mall just to get a glimpse of you!! Sitting in the nanny car provided by the organizer, Lin Xiaoxiao, who had done some disguise, looked at the crowded scene outside the car window in amazement. With the luxury mall of {Dream} Little ◢.1a officially chartered by NIKE, Addison's first event in G City will be held here, and now even outside the mall has gathered a large number of fans, and the crowd immediately began to get excited when the nanny car drove into their sight.

"Right? I was also shocked when I saw this scene for the first time in S City, and it seems that I did underestimate my popularity......" Addison said with a smile of joy and pride, and idols will definitely be full of accomplishment when they see their many supporters, and he is no exception. And this kind of thing is nothing to hide, pretending to be modest, these fans are attracted by him with his strength and personality charm.

"Cut, it's really not modest at all......" Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to make a disapproving expression to him, but the smiling eyes that were bent into a crescent moon made her unable to pretend, so she had to stretch out her white finger and point on Addison's shoulder. She is now wearing a black short-sleeved hoodie that is one size larger than herself, and her original shorts have been replaced by a pair of legging denim trousers, and she is dressed like the staff at the event.

Originally, Addison thought that it would be very difficult to let Lin Xiaoxiao accompany him to participate in the event, but he didn't expect the staff of Company T to recognize her almost at a glance after seeing this girl, and his attitude was so gentle that Addison was a little confused. Thinking back to the respectful attitude of the reception service staff in Yuehao Hotel when facing Lin Xiaoxiao before, Addison could probably judge Lin Xiaoxiao... No, it should be how influential the Lin family has in G City. He didn't believe that just one real owner of "Dunk" magazine could be so well-connected in G City, China's top big city, "Dunk Magazine" is estimated to be only a small part of Lin's father's industry, otherwise how could T's staff have to adjust their attitude when they see his daughter.

At least in this respect, it is indeed a happy thing to be born in an upper class, especially in an upper-class family...... Addison doesn't know if he has the ability to squeeze into the so-called upper class in his life, and through his strong influence and economic strength in the NBA, several stars have entered that circle, such as Michael. Jordan, Kobe. Bryant or LeBron. James, the combined business value and assets of these people are at least $000 million. Many players in the top leagues are following these examples, hoping that one day they too will be able to join the glamorous world they have always dreamed of.

But Addison had no desire to do so, nor did he intend to break his head and head in this direction. He entered the NBA because he loves basketball and wants to show his skills and win honors in the world's highest level of basketball, which is also the goal he set for the first half of his life. He admired John even more. Stockton's life was filled with rich statistics and accolades, and after retiring from the army, he retired to the countryside and lived a dull and comfortable life. Addison also plans his life in this way, he is not used to and is not good at creating his own business empire, he just wants to get the honor he desires in his career, and then live a peaceful life after retirement.

That's why he's now taking a cautious and cautious approach to things other than basketball, especially when it comes to dealing with others. Of course, he also likes beautiful girls, and he also hopes that his future partner will be a girl with good looks and figure. Addison is not an abusive person, nor is he a so-called master with rich emotional experience, he only hopes that the one he finally chooses is not only because of his status as an NBA star to date and even talk about marriage, but also hopes that she can be willing to live a peaceful life with him after his career is over.

That's not a small challenge...... As many people say, it's easy for NBA players to find a female partner, but it's hard to find a lifelong partner......

- I wonder when I will be able to find my other half as I wish? Addison's mind flashed through the girls he had known since he entered the alliance, from Jessia and Krystal to Li Jingyi, and then to Lin Xiaoxiao, who was now elated by his side...... His eyes couldn't help but be a little confused, and in his heart he had a somewhat good impression of several of these members of the opposite sex, but he didn't know how to go deeper. Maybe he should be more direct, instead of subconsciously telling himself that he is still too shallow in this regard, as he is now.

The door of the nanny car was opened, and the shouts and cheers of the intrusion and the sound of the flashing lights exploding pulled Eddie out of his thoughts violently, and Lin Xiaoxiao beside him had already pulled up the hood of his hoodie and put on a mask, which was completely different from the staff.

"Whew......" Addison exhaled hard, rubbed his cheeks, put aside the messy thoughts he had just made for a moment, and walked out of the car with a smile. The Addison fans who had been waiting outside the mall suddenly raised their voices to a new level when they saw the real person, and he could see the bitter expressions on the faces of the security personnel who maintained order here. The young Chinese, who had already gained experience, stepped forward to sign autographs for several fans standing in the front row, and within two minutes, the staff stepped forward to play the role of cold noodles to interrupt them, and hugged Addison towards the mall.

Lin Xiaoxiao walked among these staff, close to 5 centimeters tall, so that she did not have any sense of disobedience here, after seeing Addison's slanted gaze, the girl smiled and winked at him, covering most of her face, and her pupils narrowed into a beautiful crescent.

- What a ...... for her

***

"I am very grateful to the Chinese Basketball Association for their attention to me in the middle of the season, and I can understand that they did not send me an invitation in the end, and there are many talented and talented players in China...... You can really talk nonsense with your eyes open, how come I don't know which current player in China is stronger than you? Lin Xiaoxiao imitated Addison's rhetoric in the previous interview with emotion, and then couldn't help but pout, "The guy who plays on the scene, beware of being struck by lightning when telling lies." ”

"Suffered... Suffer what?! Are you all cursed in this way?! Addison was shocked by the girl's casual teasing, "What else is 'acting on the spot'?" This is a sign of strong adaptability, is it possible that you want me to face an interview and say, 'The Chinese Basketball Association did not invite me, it was their biggest mistake, and I want to make them regret it for the rest of their lives'? Then I guess I will be branded as a negative example by the Chinese media tomorrow. ”

Lin Xiaoxiao wrinkled the bridge of her white nose and thought about it, and then laughed lightly, of course she knew that what Addison said before was speaking in an official way, she just wanted to make a joke. All sober-minded basketball lovers in the country know how difficult it is for China to naturalize foreign players, and there has not been even one successful example so far. From Jeremy Lin to Addison now, the basketball association seems to have a mysterious sense of confidence in domestic players when it comes to this time.

The evening lasted only 2 hours and consisted mainly of an interview with Addison, followed by a few interactive sessions with the fans. Returning to the hotel from the mall, the time had just passed 9:00 p.m., but it was not too early for Lin Xiaoxiao, who had a strict family education, because Lin's mother asked her to go home before 0:00 p.m. Don't look at Lin Mikiko's usual gentle and gentle appearance, but what she said Lin Xiaoxiao basically didn't dare to rebel and disobey, in some ways she was more majestic than Lin Xiaoxiao's father to Lin Xiaoxiao.

"I'll send you back, it's too dangerous for you to go home alone at this time." Addison looked at the time on his phone, he didn't know that the security of China's night markets was different from that of the United States, and he thought that there were potential threats everywhere at night like Oakland or New York. Even from a man's point of view, he wouldn't let a girl go home by herself at night.

"Don't worry, I've already messaged my driver at home, and he'll be here to pick me up in a moment." Addison's behavior and attitude made Lin Xiaoxiao very satisfied and happy, she smiled and shook her mobile phone, and politely rejected the other party's proposal. Addison has an early formation activity tomorrow morning, and needs an early rest in the evening. Lin Xiaoxiao is a smart girl, she knows how to restrain her heartbeat ideas at the right time.

Addison habitually put his hands in his pants pockets and looked at the girl whose expression seemed to be a little reserved. He shrugged his shoulders casually: "So what should I do now?" I'm not going to go back to my room and leave you alone in the hall...... This is not in line with the norms of how a man should behave. ”

Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed beautifully because of the smile: "Then talk to me again, Addison." There are very few friends who can chat with me well, and those people at school seem to be a little scared of me, and I don't know why I ......"...

The two of them walked to the sofa on the side of the hall, and the girl suddenly pulled up a photo on her mobile phone and stretched it out in front of Addison's eyes: "Look at our bean curd, is it very kawaii...... When did you get a cat? The things that were promised to me before can't be counted. ”

- This girl is so persistent on this issue that she mentions it almost every time I chat with her. Addison grinned a little helplessly, and while saying that he would raise it after the trip was over, he unconsciously stretched out his hand and stroked Lin Xiaoxiao's head. This is a habit he unconsciously developed after being in contact with the girl for a long time, and it seems that every time he gets along with Lin Xiaoxiao, he will habitually touch each other's heads. And Lin Xiaoxiao is not repulsed by this kind of behavior at all, but every time he squints his eyes happily like a small animal, and his head turns slightly sideways.

- What kind of cat do you have, Lin is no different from a kitten now......

Addison accompanied Lin Xiaoxiao to chat in the hall for more than ten minutes, and the girl received a message from the driver. She was also wearing a black hoodie and jeans, which was more free and handsome than she looked in the afternoon. The girl glanced at Addison, who had said goodbye to her, and suddenly laughed a little slyly.

"Addison, you're going to be in G City for three days, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"Hmm...... It's nothing, it's just that my mom wants to treat you to dinner tomorrow night. You remember my mother, Mikiko Hayashi. ”
