After the win over the Kings, the Suns will have a few days off until the game resumes on January 1, 2008, when they will travel to the 76ers on the road.

After finishing the game with the Kings, Zhang Chen and the others had a few days to rest. The first few days were always packed with fixtures and not much time to rest.

However, there is not much time for Zhang Chen to rest, and what he has to do in the past few days is to make his speed experience bar rise as soon as possible.

On the night of the race, he practiced his speed in the training space for a long time, and the big dog chased after him more and more fiercely, and he was caught once, and he was in tears on the spot.

The next morning, the team was originally on vacation, but Zhang Chen still went to the stadium to conduct his physical fitness and speed training.

After a lap of training, Zhang Chen stretched his waist and felt his body feel comfortable. In the future, with the artifact of learning space and talent adaptation training method, he can now devote more energy to training with his physical strength and speed.

In the evening, I went out to have a meal with Liu Xuan, and the two of them didn't get together for a while, but they talked a lot when they sat together, and it was said that Zhang Chen didn't come back from there until a long time in the evening.

The next day, Zhang Chen spent another day in the gym, and at six o'clock in the evening, he slipped out and suddenly found that he had nothing to do. Today is the last day of 2007, and it feels empty not to do something.

Originally, Liu Xuan and him were quite familiar, but after all, Liu Xuan also had his own life, and he had already gotten together yesterday, so now Zhang Chen is really a little lonely.

Why? Zhang Chen had nothing to do, so he walked out alone, got in the car, and came to a relatively prosperous street.

The Christmas craze hasn't completely passed, and occasionally a few guys dressed as Santa Claus will engage in performance art on the street, which Zhang Chen finds very interesting when he looks at this complicated world.

Parking the car in the correct parking space, Zhang Chen opened the car door and walked out, the time was close to midwinter, and the temperature here was relatively low, Zhang Chen shrunk his neck and got out of the car door.

There are still some Christmas trees on the street that have not been evacuated, and a couple of couples walked happily in front of Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen sniffed, and suddenly found that two figures jumped out of his mind, he was startled, and quickly pressed this thought into the deepest part of his heart.

This is a relatively prosperous comprehensive street, where there are hot stalls, but also a splendid shopping paradise, Zhang Chen put his hand in his pocket.

There were a few fans who recognized him, and he quickly made a silent gesture to tell them not to say it, but the fans were more cooperative, just quietly asked Zhang Chen a question mark, or took out his pen and paper by the way, and asked Zhang Chen to sign for them.

Wandering aimlessly through the streets, the sky of this place gradually darkened, and endless darkness poured mercury from the sky. The streetlights on both sides gradually descended, enveloping the figures of hurried or complacent pedestrians.

Suddenly, Zhang Chen felt that he had bumped into someone, and then he heard a female voice: "Oops......"

Looking at her face, Zhang Chen couldn't cry or laugh in his heart: It won't be so bloody.

The girl in front of her was wearing a cute white velvet hat, a black leather jacket that flattered her perfect figure, a pair of dark blue jeans and a pair of high-heeled boots. She has beautiful facial features and a straight nose, which is an unforgettable face.

Zhang Chen hurriedly helped her up and said, "Nina, I'm sorry...... I accidentally bumped into you......"

Nina got up from the ground and patted her body and said it was okay, but the girl pouted, her face was a little heavy, and it seemed that she was not in a good mood.

"Hey...... Nina, did I hurt you? Zhang Chen began to worry.

"No, it's just that I'm not in a good mood today." Nina was obviously very honest with Zhang Chen, and directly said that she was not in a good mood.

Zhang Chen didn't have the habit of listening to others, but said: "Are you alone today~~?" ”

Nina nodded, looked at the crowded streets, saw the couple walking by, still had some annoyance on her face, and said, "Yes, I'm alone, you know I don't have any friends in this city." ”

"Can I count one?" Zhang Chen was also in a lonely situation now, and he felt that he could understand Nina's thoughts.

Nina glanced at Zhang Chen and smiled: "Of course you are a ...... But you know you and I weren't very familiar with each other until a few minutes ago. ”

Zhang Chen said strangely: "Then now we are very familiar with each other?" ”

Nina smiled slyly: "Two equally lonely people can be acquaintances. Zhang Chen was a little embarrassed when he heard this, so he had to cough dryly and said, "Otherwise, the two of us alone will go together." ”

"Okay~~" Nina thought for a moment and nodded.

Nina has a height of 1.73 meters, plus the high heels on her feet, standing up and Zhang Chen are quite coordinated. Zhang Chen is not very tall, and with a slightly immature face, he doesn't look too tall.

The two of them walked on the street, and Zhang Chen finally felt that he was much more comfortable walking like this. Although the two of them did not speak for a while, it was better than being alone in the house and keeping the wall clock ringing until next year.

Turning the building in front of him, Phinea Square appeared in front of him, Zhang Chen hadn't been here for a while, but this is still one of the more prosperous areas of Phoenix, people stepped in front of Phinea Square in fragments, and a few English letters of Phinea shone in the dark night, as if to burn everyone's eyes.

The square is crowded with people, and many people have already arrived here with their families to prepare for the New Year's Eve night. Some of them are looking at the sky reverently, some are laughing with their lovers, and the environment is very chaotic.

"Why don't we go to a movie......" Nina said suddenly, with a slight understatement, and she happened to see a movie theater next to the square, with a huge poster on it.

"Well, I haven't seen a movie in a long time." For people like Zhang Chen who don't know how to win the hearts of female surnames, let alone how to play with them, the best way is to wait for her to propose and then go along with it.

"Let's go inside......" Nina said, her face still a little sadly curved.

"Oh...... It turns out that "Saw Horror" 4 has been released. I don't know at all. Zhang Chen casually found some topics to talk about.

Nina glanced at Zhang Chen with some surprise: "I didn't expect you to have a heavy taste." ”

Zhang Chen was embarrassed for a while, in fact, he didn't have much of a good impression of Chainsaw Horror, and he was numb to this kind of movie. Now that he is in the United States, he is really worried that one day he will be dragged in by that crazy old man and will have to cut off his hands and feet before he can come out.

After Nina said this, she didn't mention Zhang Chen's 'heavy taste' again, but continued to watch the movie above.

"Oh...... I've wanted to watch this movie for a long time...... It should be a good shot. Zhang Chen looked in the direction of Nina's right hand and saw the poster. Johnson wore a long green dress and struck a sultry pose.

"Why don't we watch both......" Zhang Chen said.

"Both?" Nina tilted her head and thought for a moment, then turned her head and said, "Don't you...... It would have been 2008 since then, and I wanted to watch the clock strike until twelve. ”

"Then watch this 'Another Pauline Girl'." Zhang Chen pointed his right index finger at Scarlett. Johnson's full chest turned to Nina.

"yes, okay." Nina finally had a smile on her face, and it seemed that the girl was really in a bad mood today.

This movie is called "Another Polling's Girl", Zhang Chen himself watched it a little sadly, but Nina watched it with relish, the two of them sat in close proximity, and Zhang Chen could occasionally see her crystal eyes. Sometimes the movie screen suddenly lit up, and the light was faintly sprinkled on her long, brown hair, which gave people the urge to touch it gently.

After watching the movie, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and it could be seen that Nina was a little unsatisfied. Towards the end of the film, Nina suddenly turned her eyes and glanced at Zhang Chen, who happened to also turn her eyes. The two men looked at each other and didn't say a word.

Outside is the downtown area of Phoenix, the lights are bright every night, Zhang Chen is bored and kicks a leaf on the side of the road, I don't know why, he doesn't want to go back so early today.

"Tatsu ...... Are you going back? Nina turned her head and asked Zhang Chen.

"Don't go back yet...... Zhang Chen looked at Nina's eighteen-year-old Ruhua face and said, "Why don't we go for a walk together...... I know a place where we might as well go there and drink coffee and wait for 2008 to come. ”

Nina seemed to be happy with the proposal, and maybe she didn't want to go home today.

story.of.phoenix is a hollow inn-like shop in the shape of a long corridor near the middle of Phinia Square. Sitting in the store, you can see the pedestrians walking outside through the hollow window, some people's shoelaces are scattered, someone's shoes are torn, couples hold hands and whisper sweet words for fear of being stolen by others...... "Alas......" Nina took a sip of coffee, sighed and said, "Another year has passed." ”

"Nina...... I don't think you would mind telling me where your troubles came from. Zhang Chen looked at Lena, who was sipping coffee, and saw a strand of her brown hair slipping down, and brushed it back with his right hand.

She seemed to think for a while, and then she had already made up her mind to confide her matter to Zhang Chen: "Chen...... Maybe you saw some of my love for acting, I was in the sports team when I was younger, and then I returned to my normal studies and entered an acting school. At that time, I had a lot of love for acting, and I wanted to find more roles every day. ”

"But you're still studying...... Maybe there will be a conflict,......," Zhang Chen said quickly.

"That's where my annoyance comes from...... I wanted to drop out of school because I found myself unable to let go of my love for acting. ”

Zhang Chen is more touched by this, this matter can be seen from the time they shoot advertisements together, so Zhang Chen comforted the surname and said: "Maybe you can find more opportunities after dropping out?" It's also a possibility. After speaking, he sighed a little in his heart, these young people in North America are more courageous and often do what they think well, and they don't care too much about the consequences of this matter.

"That's what I thought too...... I think I have a foundation in acting, you know I won a championship when I was a sports athlete! Nina puffed her cute nose and said a little arrogantly.

Zhang Chen smiled slightly: "So, your dream has a foundation, so why don't you do it?" And let this affect your mood? ”

"Honestly...... Actually, I'm not very interested in that boring sociology...... I'd like to kick them out of the way if I get the chance......" Nina paused, "However, my family is very against this, they think I can't be successful in acting." ”

Zhang Chen frowned: "Seriously, this is a question, so what do you want to do yourself?" ”

"I wanted to give up that degree myself, I wanted to find something I loved." After saying this, Lena took another sip of coffee, which was bitter.

Zhang Chen thought about it for a while, and said, "Then I think you may be able to make the choice you want to make, I think one day you will be able to convince them with your own results!" ”

Nina glanced at Zhang Chen with a little gratitude, and said, "Thank you for your comfort, in fact, I have already made a decision, but because of this, I began to slowly consider the feelings of my family...... You know I'm also going to have a time when I can't communicate well with my family. ”

Zhang Chen nodded, then looked at his phone, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Hey...... I have a good proposal......" Zhang Chen glanced at the crowd outside the window and said, "Let's leave all the troubles of the past for two thousand and seven years!" ”

"What's a good proposal? How to stay? Nina hurriedly asked.

Zhang Chen didn't speak, but asked for two sticky notes that could be posted at the service desk, walked back, and came to the table where two people were drinking coffee, Zhang Chen handed Nina a sticky note, pointed to it and said: "Let's write all the troubles and troubles of the past on it, and then leave them in story.of.phoenix, forever in 2007, forever and ever!" ”

Apparently intrigued by the proposal, Nina clapped her hands and lowered her head to write on it.

Zhang Chen himself doesn't have anything to write about, because in the past year, he has obtained the magic weapon of that dream space cultivation, he entered the dream NBA, and has fought against the dream star several times. A large part of what he did was just to make Nina happy, after all, Nina had been with him for many hours tonight, and Zhang Chen would not refuse if he could help her a little.

After thinking about it, he still wrote a few words on the paper, he was going to forget everything that happened in college, and he was going to leave the baggage of the past behind, because the value of his life lies in the NBA.

When Zhang Chen finished writing, Nina was still writing densely on the paper. Her writing posture was not standard, her body was always tilted to the right, her head was buried low, and her long hair darkened the light. She wrote in this dim light that she wanted to forget the troubles of this year, as if such a dim light could make the story be forgotten faster.

The yellow sticky note paper was covered in black letters like sesame seeds. Although her appearance is not very elegant, to Zhang Chen, under the light, it looks particularly moving.

"It's written!" Nina put down her pen with a really relaxed expression on her face.

Zhang Chen hurriedly turned his head over to see what Nina wrote, Nina quickly took it away, and then said, "Don't look at ......" Then, she handed her right hand: "Bring yours, I'll stick it on the sticky note wall." ”

Zhang Chen handed over his note, and Nina quietly lowered her gaze, looking like she wanted to see what Zhang Chen had written. However, after she saw what Zhang Chen wrote, she glared at Zhang Chen a little mischievously: "Hmph...... It turned out to be written in Chinese. ”

Zhang Chen suddenly felt that this girl was sometimes too cute.
