Chapter 19: Arriving at His Girlfriend's House for the First Time
As soon as the news of Sun's non-draft was announced, the people of New Haven welcomed it, because it meant that Yale University would still be very competitive next season. However, some basketball commentators are pessimistic about Sun Xiaotian's future, expressing cautious optimism about Sun Xiaotian's draft market this season, and saying that he has missed the best time in his life.
But Sun Xiaotian didn't care about these news, what he really cared about was his trip to Arizona.
When it comes to this trip to Arizona, we have to mention Selena. With the University of Arizona losing to North Carolina in a 32-16 game, Selena's cheerleading life this season came to an end. Previously, Selena had given Sun Xiaotian her contact information in the parking lot of the American Airlines Center, and Sun Xiaotian took the initiative to call her soon after she returned, and the two chatted happily, and this chat slowly became a habit.
Later, Selena told Sun Xiaotian that she hoped to meet him during the summer vacation and invited him to her home. Sun Xiaotian was a little flattered by Selena's invitation, feeling that Americans were really open-minded, and they didn't know much about each other, so they were invited to her home as guests. Of course, Sun Xiaotian is also looking forward to this meeting, because during the chat with Selena, he seems to have slowly liked her, and it just so happens that she doesn't have a boyfriend yet.
Just go!
On the second day of school vacation, Sun Xiaotian boarded a plane to Phoenix and officially embarked on a trip to Arizona.
The plane flew for more than 4 hours and arrived in Phoenix, at the exit of the airport, Sun Xiaotian saw Selena waving to him from a distance, and a boy was standing next to him. Sun Xiaotian couldn't help but tremble in his heart, could it be that this was his boyfriend.
“sun! Welcome to Phoenix! Selena said with a smile.
Sun Xiaotian looked at her outfit, an orange jacket, a pair of jeans underneath, and a pair of boots, full of denim style.
"Hello Selena! Who is this? "Sun Xiaotian desperately wants to find out who that boy is?
"Oh! Let me introduce you, this is Karen! My brother! ”
When Sun Xiaotian heard that it was her younger brother, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Karen! Hello! You can call me sun! ”
Karen looked up at Sun Xiaotian, ignored him, turned around and walked towards the parking lot.
"What's wrong? Am I saying the wrong thing? Sun Xiaotian asked Selena in a low voice.
"Nope! That's his temper, ignore him! Selena said with a smile.
The three of them got into a brand-new pickup truck, with Karen driving, Selena in the passenger seat, and Sun Xiaotian in the back.
The car drove out of town, and Selena's home was in a small town outside of Phoenix. After driving for a while, Sun Xiaotian saw elegant villas, thick trees on both sides of the street reaching into the sky, and the whole green space was like a golf course, which was a typical American middle-class residential area.
The car stopped in front of a two-storey villa, which was white all over and surrounded by trees, giving it a sense of paradise. The villa is not luxurious, but it is set off by the surrounding environment, which makes this house particularly charming.
"Ding Dong!" Selena knocked on the door.
After the door opened, I saw a couple appear in front of Sun Xiaotian. Sun Xiaotian hurriedly stepped forward to greet him politely, and the couple hurriedly beckoned him into the house. That's right! This is Selena and Karen's parents.
"I'm glad you can invite me here, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it!" Sun Xiaotian handed a beautifully packaged box to Selena's parents with both hands.
After they opened the box, they saw a set of exquisite mahogany carved tea sets with a strong Chinese style in front of the two of them.
"Wow! It's so beautiful! Thank you! "The couple was also very polite.
After the two sides talked for a while, Selena's couple asked Selena to take Sun Xiaotian around the area, and it happened that Sun Xiaotian also had this intention.
When he turned around, Sun Xiaotian found that it was really quiet here, and people's lives were very leisurely and comfortable.
The two of them talked as they walked, and Selena laughed "hehe" from time to time.
Suddenly, Sun Xiaotian heard a cheering voice from in front of him.
"What's that?" Sun Xiaotian asked.
"There's a basketball court!" Selena told him.
As soon as Sun Xiaotian heard the basketball, his two legs involuntarily walked over there. Selena smiled ghostly, thinking that she really deserved to play basketball, and she would never forget her old job.
After the two arrived, Sun Xiaotian found that there was a basketball court there, and several people were playing 3 against 3, and Cullen was also there.
Sun Xiaotian stepped forward, and Cullen also saw Sun Xiaotian.
"Do you know how to play basketball?" Karen asked Sun Xiaotian.
Sun Xiaotian glanced at Selena, and Selena smiled faintly. Obviously, it seems that Cullen didn't know he was playing basketball yet.
"A little bit!" Sun Xiaotian said.
"Do you dare to pick?" Karen said coldly,
Selena looked at Karen and said, "Are you sure you want to pick with him?" ”
"That's right!"
"Oh well! Hello do it yourself! Selena squeezed her eyebrows at Sun Xiaotian and sat down in the stands.
When everyone saw that Cullen was going to single-handedly challenge the tall Asian in front of them, they felt that there was a good show to watch, and they sat down one after another, making room for the two of them.
Sun Xiaotian took off his coat and wore only a thin T-shirt on his upper body.
"You come first!" Cullen dropped the ball to Sun Xiaotian.
Sun Xiaotian smiled and looked at Karen in front of him.
He dribbled the ball from beyond the three-point line, and Karen Young worked hard to defend him. Sun Xiaotian didn't rush inside, but deliberately shot a basket from a distance outside, but he didn't hit it.
Cullen smiled, only thinking that he dared to say that he could fight at this level.
It's Karen's turn, Cullen changed a series of streetball moves under Sun Xiaotian's defense, and when he saw the timing, he went in with a catwalk, and it was an easy layup, seeing that the ball was about to roll into the basket, who knows, Sun Xiaotian jumped high in the back is a fixed hat.
"What? Jumping so high! Cullen was stunned.
"Alright! It's my turn! Sun Xiaotian said to Cullen with a smile.
Sun Xiaotian calmed down, this time he looked at the basket behind Karen, looked back at Selena who was sitting on the side, and smiled slightly.
I saw him take a quick step and get close to Karen. Cullen turned around to chase, Sun Xiaotian made another sudden stop under his crotch, due to inertia, Cullen's two legs seemed to be disobedient, and he sat on the ground all of a sudden, Sun Xiaotian jumped up and hit a ball steadily.
At this time, the people in the audience screamed, and Selena, who was sitting on the side, smiled and shook her head.
It was Sun Xiaotian who controlled the ball again, and Karen was shaken down by Sun Xiaotian just now, but now he is still 10,000 dissatisfied.
Sun Xiaotian first made a series of Iverson-style crotch dribbles, and Cullen was dazzled. Suddenly, Sun Xiaotian sped up and cleaned up Karen. Then jump high, and it's a tomahawk split! Only to see Karen's eyes glazed.
……
14-0!!
"Do you want to pick again?"
