Chapter 042: Before the Great War

Los Angeles International Airport.

"Amy, I've started to miss you! Don't forget to call! Li Chen said affectionate words as always.

Amy hugged her lover tightly, "Well, I'll remember, you have to cheer for the next game!" I'll be in front of the TV to cheer you on! If she could, she didn't want to be separated from Li Chen.

Don't get me wrong, Amy wasn't going to Italy, she was just going home for Christmas. The Christmas holidays had started a week earlier, but Amy had been staying in Los Angeles, and the girl tried her best to spend more time with her boyfriend, hoping to make up for not being able to spend Christmas with him.

Her parents have urged Amy to go home more than once, but she always thinks of various reasons to shirk, what friend has a birthday, what suddenly feels unwell and needs a day off, what school suddenly asks to return to school to deal with some things, in short, there are all kinds of strange excuses.

Finally, Amy's mother, Li Chen's future mother-in-law, gave her daughter an ultimatum that if she hadn't returned home by this evening, then as a mother, she wouldn't mind rushing to Los Angeles to help her daughter deal with all the things that hindered her homecoming.

Seeing that there was no way out, Amy had to pitifully agree to her mother's request and buy a ticket to Denver in the afternoon. At present, there is almost an hour before the plane takes off, and a pair of little lovers are making a final goodbye.

"Did Italy really decide not to go? This is a very good opportunity for you, and Roberta is a very good designer and she can help you in a lot of unexpected ways. Li Chen tried to make a final effort, and the girl's immaturity made him unhappy while liking it.

Just because I don't want to be separated from my lover for a short time, I decided to give up a very precious opportunity, this kind of thing is really only done by a little girl who likes Korean dramas and her mind is full of all kinds of perfect love. Of course, from the bottom of his heart, Li Chen was still very happy, after all, Amy gave up that opportunity because of him, although he lacked reason, but it could also reflect the girl's deep affection for him.

"No, I'm not going, I think it's good to stay here, there are a lot of famous designers in Los Angeles, you don't have to go to Italy to develop well, you have to know that the United States is the most prosperous country in the world today." Besides, you know there are other reasons. ”

Her boyfriend's attempt to persuade her to go to Italy made Amy very puzzled, could it be that she had become an obstacle to him, so he wanted to let herself go, thinking of Li Chen and Julie's unclear relationship, Amy couldn't help but start worrying unnecessarily.

"What are you thinking about?" Li Chen saw Amy's thoughts at a glance, "I don't have the idea of driving you away, I wish you were by my side all day." It's just that I want you to know that you have other things to think about besides love. ”

Li Chen explained bitterly, "Do you want to become a housewife like your mother in the future, don't go anywhere except supermarkets and parks all day long, watch your waistline grow day by day in the company of TV shopping programs, and then complain to your father about what kind of scenery she would be now if she hadn't chosen him at the beginning." Are you sure you like that feeling? ”

"Oh my God, I don't want to be a woman like my mother, even though I love her!" With all the characteristics of the strange mother in her mind, Amy hurriedly banished this terrifying hypothesis from her head.

"That's crooked, so you have to think about it, discuss it with your father, I believe he is a wise man." Hanging the girl's travel bag around her neck, Li Chen carried Amy on her back, "This is the Christmas gift I gave you in advance, take off the thing I hid in my neck." ”

"Christmas presents?" Amy peeled off the thick scarf around Li Chen's neck, and sure enough, there was a sparkling diamond necklace hidden inside.

"Oh my God, aren't you not paid, where do you get so much money?" In addition to being happy, Amy couldn't help but be a little worried about her boyfriend's financial situation. "Still, God, it's so beautiful, it's the most precious Christmas gift I've ever received."

"Hehe, if you like it!" Li Chen watched the girl put the necklace around her neck, and under the imprint of the gemstones, Emmy was even more enchanting at this moment, "I never told you that I was a poor boy, although I said that I was not paid, but you have to know that with the little income from the bar, it is more than enough for me to buy such a necklace!" ”

After being reborn, Li Chen found that although the original owner of the body, Cruze, was not rich and noble, the word poor boy had absolutely nothing to do with him, in current words, Cruze was a real rich and handsome!

Amy lay on Li Chen's back and wrapped her hands tightly around her lover's neck, "Thank you, Cruze, I love this gift." The steady pace made Amy lying on it very comfortable, and suddenly thought of something, Amy said to Li Chen with a wicked smile.

"My dear, you just talked about my mother, which made me think a little. If, I mean, don't take it seriously, what would you do if one day I really became the kind of fat housewife like my mother, so fat that you couldn't carry me anymore? ”

"I'll kick you off the Golden Gate Bridge without mercy!" Seeing the girl's instantly gloomy face, Li Chen smiled very happily, "What about teasing you, if, I also said if, you must not take it seriously, if one day you are so fat that I can no longer carry it, then I will strive to become as fat as you, and roll over with you all day long, okay?" ”

"Hehe", Amy didn't speak, just smiled uncontrollably, and it could be seen that Li Chen's words made her very happy.

The journey was very short, and even though Li Chen had tried his best to slow down his pace, he still had to put down Amy at the boarding gate after all, and gently left a kiss on the girl's lips, "Honey, be careful on the road, I wish you a Merry Christmas in advance!" See you next year! ”

"Well, I'll miss you", Amy reluctantly let go of her hand, as if she had made up a lot of determination, the girl leaned into Li Chen's ear and whispered, "Although I am very unhappy about you and Julie's affairs, I know that she likes you, Julie is my best friend, don't make her sad, as for me, I am very satisfied now!" Merry Christmas and I love you! ”

With that, Amy sped into the gate. Li Chen clearly saw that the moment the girl turned around, she cried......

I really can't figure out Amy's attitude, Li Chen suddenly felt a little anxious, he felt that Amy was likely to decide to leave him because of Julie's problem, the Puritans' loyalty to love is unquestionable, and because of this, they are also pursuing a near-perfect love, Li Chen doesn't know if Amy feels that this relationship is flawed, so he finally decided to give up. Fortunately, the girl gave the answer at the right time.

After running for a while, Amy suddenly stopped, her face was especially stained with tears that she had time to wipe away, and the girl shouted to Li Chen, "Remember to miss me, I'll be back in three weeks!" ”

Waving his hand, Li Chen smiled very satisfied, it seems that Amy chose to betray the God she believed in because she couldn't let go of this feeling, this great sacrifice made him feel a heavy responsibility on his shoulders while being moved.

------------------------------------------------------------

"Rookie, just send a girlfriend, you're really inkblotted, it's not life and death, isn't it just three weeks, you have to know that the upcoming Christmas battle is the most important thing in front of me, I want a win, because I don't want Kevin to win!"

Kobe Bryant was mobilizing his younger brother before the game, and in his opinion, Li Chen's performance was crucial to the next game.

"First of all, I have to declare, believe it or not, Amy, she is my fiancée. Secondly, for the next Christmas fight, I promise to do my best! Because, I don't want that bastard Pierce to win, and I'm sure you know what those boring media did to me, right? ”

"Hmm", Kobe nodded, "Chicago Sun, I would recommend that the team ban this media, they really went too far this time!" ”

Things have to start two days ago, the "Chicago Sun" suddenly published a message on their basketball page, which said that according to the information provided by an anonymous person, Lakers super rookie Li Chen revealed to people before the game that he didn't take Boston's Ray Allen in his eyes at all, he Cruz Lee is the top scorer in the NBA today, there is no one, as for the others, just a little miscellaneous fish!

Because of this false news, Li Chen instantly became the public enemy of the league, and countless basketball commentators suddenly stood up for his disrespectful behavior of his predecessors, accusing the Lakers of arrogance and demanding that Li Chen apologize for his inappropriate remarks.

Among them, the media in Boston and Chicago shouted the hardest, the former is the sworn enemy of the Lakers, and the latter also looks at the Lakers very unpleasantly because of Rose, both of them want to make this matter bigger, it is best to make it known to everyone, they want to completely stink Li Chen's reputation.

Although Li Chen promptly stated through the "Los Angeles Times" that this incident was a rumor at all, he had never said such a thing, and he did not mean to disrespect his predecessors at all, and at the same time he reserved the right to investigate the legal responsibility of the initiator, and the Chicago Sun's malicious slander of others would be punished as it should be, but this turmoil still caused Bostonians to be very unhappy.

Before the game, Celtics' star Kevin Garnett made a bold statement that they would give it their all in this game, and what they did in the Finals last season, they can do the same this season.

"We hate the Lakers as much as they hate us, and the Lakers have always been the Celtics' sworn enemies, and that won't change anytime soon. For some arrogant rookie on the Lakers, I think Ray will let him know how to control his nasty big mouth! ”

This is a sentence published in the Boston Herald, signed by the captain of the Green Shirts, the MVP winner of last season's finals, claiming to be the best player in the world, people give the nickname Truth, you can also call him immortal Xiaoqiang, his name is Paul Pierce!

The Los Angeles media is not happy, they all say that it is a rumor, how can anyone still take it seriously! In response to Paul Pearce's remarks, the Los Angeles Times launched the first round of bombardment.

Paul Pierce's remarks make it completely impossible to see that this is a veteran player who has been in the league for more than ten years, Lee has stated that this is a Chicago conspiracy, but some people are still willing to grasp a rumor that has no factual basis to say things, is this what a moral senior should do? Who doesn't respect whom, we don't discuss this! It's just that we want to say to some people, since you say you're the best player in the world, please don't act like the best clown in the world. ”

Li Chen's die-hard supporters loved their Big Apple as much as ever, and with the Angelenos on their heels, the New York Times began a second round of bombardment.

"Haha, Los Angeles colleagues, we don't know if someone is the best player in the world, but we can be sure that he must be the best clown in the world! At the same time, I have a question for the best player in the world, what were you doing when you were 19 years old? Are you worried about how to successfully pass the university course? ”

New Yorkers' sour and vicious remarks can make people angry half to death, but Bostonians can't find too strong a basis for rebutting this, and it's true that Paul Pierce hasn't entered the NBA at the age of 19!

The third wave of bombardment was a bit of a surprise to everyone, and the unanimous crusade of the Asian media left the Bostonians a little overwhelmed. "Celestial Basketball Newspaper" first carried the banner of counterattack, bluntly pointed out that Paul Pierce did not have the connotation of being a star player, since as a public figure, he must pay attention to the possible impact of his words, but from now it seems that Paul Pierce has not even shown the consciousness that a professional player should have.

The best player in the world? Just kidding, not to mention the retired superstars in the league, just Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, and James, who are still playing, which one is not better than him?

And then the media and fans in Japan, South Korea and other countries followed the trend, which made the "Basketball Newspaper" experience the feeling of an Asian boss, and this phenomenon of me taking the lead and you following made the "Basketball Newspaper" in China for a while.

In short, this turmoil caused by Chicagoans finally made league boss David Stern laugh out of his belly, because the next Christmas game has attracted unprecedented attention, which is bound to be another important step in the NBA's expansion plans around the world!
