Chapter 44: New Year's Eve, Dating, Confession

Today is December 31st, the last day of '96. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info In the blink of an eye, Liu Ming has been here for half a year, and in the past six months, Liu Ming has slowly adapted to it. Liu Ming recalled that he changed from a college student to an NBA star, and this life is a bit unreal.

Driving a new car bought by 30,000 "Franklin" yesterday, although it is not very luxurious, it is also very in line with Liu Ming's requirements, and he bought an off-road vehicle, and Liu Ming will not feel very crowded when he sits in it.

Liu Ming took the driver's license after the college entrance examination in his last life, but this kind of "antique car" Liu Ming is still very uncomfortable, fortunately, Uncle Liu Qiang is an auto repair worker, and with the help of Uncle Xiao, Liu Ming can also drive now.

What embarrassed Liu Ming was that after receiving Luo Qingyi, Luo Qingyi asked Liu Ming if he had a driver's license, and if he didn't have a driver's license, he would be fined, and he must bring his passport to the court in person to explain to the judge, which would damage Liu Ming's image and affect Liu Ming's acceptance of some advertising endorsements in the future.

In the end, it was Liu Ming who sat in the passenger seat, and the two of them arrived at Grant Park.

Grant Park is one of the four major parks in the city of Chicago, between Michigan Avenue and Lake Michigan, and Grant Park connects downtown Chicago to Lake Michigan.

The most famous place in Grant Park, and a Chicago landmark, is the Buckingham Fountain. The Buckingham Fountain is the world's largest illuminated fountain, twice the size of the Grand Fountain of the Palace of Versailles in France. Its base is made of pink marble. Hundreds of water sprays shot into the center, and a column of water in the center sprayed forty or fifty meters high.

Liu Ming also saw wild ducks "swimming" on the edge of the lake, and they were not afraid of people. Liu Ming didn't dare to bubble and feed the wild ducks, Liu Ming sat on the stone chair with Luo Qingyi, feeling the fresh air in Grant Park, and there were many trees and squirrels next to the chair.

Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi also saw many famous sculptures in the garden.

After visiting Grant Park, Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi still had some regrets, after all, they didn't have time to see the beautiful Grant night scene.

Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi were driving, and suddenly they reunited next to them and saw "Michael.Jordan.Restaurant".

"Michael Jordan Hotel", which made Liu Ming very interested, Jordan actually opened a hotel?

Liu Ming took Luo Qingyi in, had a Western meal, and asked, this restaurant opened in 1993 and is owned by the local wealthy Silva Berg brothers. The Silva brothers also rented Jordan's name and invested 6 million to develop the restaurant. It's no wonder that this does look classy, as the restaurant is a sports brand and is now a famous Chicago attraction. (However, a conflict arose over the partnership, and Jordan took the other party to court, and in 1999, the hotel was closed.) This one has a point)

This incident gave Liu Ming a lot of inspiration, and it seems that in the future, he can invite someone to open a chain of Chinese restaurants, and the location can choose a place with an NBA team. No matter where you play, you can go to your own restaurant to meet friends. Think about it, Liu Ming is also happy about his genius idea.

In fact, he didn't know that Jordan also thought of the idea, Jordan's steakhouse, the future flagship store near New York's Grand Central Terminal, with an area of 7,000 square feet and 210 seats, and a steakhouse dedicated to promoting Michael Jordan's image as a businessman.

Michael Jordan's Steak House is a Chinese restaurant that you can always see across the street from a Chinese restaurant called "Liu's Restaurant".

Later, Yao Ming also borrowed Liu Ming's ideas and opened a "Yao Restaurant" in Houston, which was opposite Liu Ming's "Liu Restaurant".

After eating, Chicago let Liu Ming see what the "Windy City" is, the sky was clear just now, and now there is a strong wind, which is worthy of being ridiculed by Chicago locals, "One wind a year, blowing from spring to winter".

However, fortunately, Liu Ming was prepared, not only took out a dress by himself, but also took out a women's windbreaker for Luo Qingyi that he secretly bought two days ago.

In fact, Luo Qingyi was not too little, but he couldn't stand Liu Ming's persuasion, so he put on the windbreaker outside.

"What are you looking at?" Luo Qingyi looked at Liu Ming and looked at himself dementedly, thinking that there was something wrong with him.

"How am I looking at my eyes?"

"What do you think......

"I'm such a genius, it's so beautiful. I have to admire my vision."

"Hmph, I'm born beautiful."

……

In the evening, Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi visited Lincoln Park, one of Chicago's most comprehensive and popular parks. Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi first went to see the sculptures created by Augustus St. Gaudens, the greatest American sculptor of the 19th century. There is Alexander Hamilton, the founding father of the United States, one of the drafters of the Constitution, and the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. One of the leaders of the American Revolutionary War, the US ambassador to France, and the invention of the "lightning rod" - Benjamin Franklin (this should be known to everyone as the most classic 100$ character). There is also the "fairy tale master" Hans Christian Andersen and so on.

After seeing the sculptures, Liu Ming and Luo Qingyi also visited the Chicago Museum of History and the Limbe-I-Gart-Bart Museum of Natural History. (These places are all in Lincoln Park)

In the end, Liu Ming also saw that there were still people playing basketball in the park, and Liu Ming, who had itchy hands, couldn't help but go down to "learn" with them.

Of course, Liu Ming's strength is crushing compared to them, and everyone recognized Liu Ming in the process of playing again, and took photos with Liu Ming, and Liu Ming also happily played with everyone. (There are not so many "goats" and "destroyers" on the streets of the United States, and professional athletes in the NBA can still abuse the streets)

After playing, taking a photo, and signing your name. Liu Ming is also tired. It was also a little late, Luo Qingyi drove the car, and Liu Mingge and Luo Qingyi returned to the place where Luo Qingyi lived.

"You don't blame me for not letting you drive today, do you?" Luo Qingyi asked.

"You care about me so much, how can I blame you." Liu Ming smiled evilly.

"Hmph, Flim Flam". Luo Qingyi snorted lightly.

"How do you know I'm Flim?"

"Hmph, close your eyes"

When Liu Ming heard this, he closed his eyes, and thought in his heart that he had finally succeeded, and the virgin kiss of this life was finally going to be sacrificed.

Liu Ming obediently closed his eyes and pouted slowly.

I waited for a long time, but there was no response.

Suddenly hearing a crisp laugh, Liu Ming saw that Luo Qingyi had walked away.

"Big fool, you've been deceived~"

Liu Ming touched his face in embarrassment, but in fact, there was nothing on it.

"Luo Qingyi, I love you~" Liu Ming shouted in the direction Luo Qingyi walked.

I don't know if Luo Qingyi heard it, Liu Ming looked at the disappearing figure and drove home. Lucky not to get caught driving without a license.

PS: It's not easy for the Cavaliers to win the championship, James, hugging his head and crying. The desire to win the championship is really strong, the snail guessed correctly, although he is a Komi, he can also understand that James has not been easy in recent years. I just saw the news today, James said that he is ready to continue to stay with the Cavaliers, looking forward to next season's performance, and hopes that Love will find a good next home.

Recently, the snail is really tired, and today I have an exam, a physical examination, and tomorrow there will be calculus and C language, I hope I don't fail the course. Heaven forbid

Thank you @ for accompanying you for the tip of 588, @杀破狼444 for the tip of @Knight Apprentice 555@wocao12345

"Franklin" in this article only represents the US dollar, not 100 US dollars. Just like "Grandpa Mao" represents the yuan. The snail knows that the head of the dollar is different on the money.

Thank you @Moguanshu @ Kill the wolf 444@yy Lele @ for accompanying you @Knight Apprentice 555 @ Book Shortage for the recommendation vote

This chapter has been changed and changed, and I have written it many times, but I am still not satisfied, and I feel that I don't have the talent to write emotional dramas.

And yes. Finally, please add a group. There aren't many people in the group, but they're all quite active.
