Out of the airport, Bryant, Iverson and their entourage got on the bus sent to pick up the plane, Chamberlain did not get on the bus, he had to wait for Sjet, who and Kenel Grants' flight was also about to arrive at the airport.

Others wondered what he was doing at the airport, Chamberlain smiled and said nothing, Kobe Bryant suddenly looked ambiguous, he pulled away a few people from Billups, and whispered: "I know Z, this bastard must be going to have a private meeting with a beautiful woman here, look at his expression, it's definitely so!" ”

Chamberlain laughed dumbly, and didn't bother to explain anything, and certainly couldn't explain his purpose. West, worthy of being his iron buddy, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll stay with you and wait, won't it be boring for you to be here alone?" ”

Looking at West's sincere and honest smile, Chamberlain was greatly moved, worthy of being a good brother, he pinched West's shoulder and said: "Thank you, brother, I don't know how to say a lot of things, you have suffered a lot of grievances with me, if you are in other teams, you can be an absolute core ......"

West smiled and punched him and said: "Don't say it so sour, it's like we're GAY, I'm very comfortable in the Warriors, and people often ask me why I don't go to other teams to be the boss, and I have asked myself this question, and my answer is that it's not interesting!" Z, if I hadn't been to the Warriors, I wouldn't even be able to eat right now! ”

West's family knows his own family affairs, before he came to the Warriors, everything didn't go well, his daughter's illness, the departure of his girlfriend, the conflict with his teammates, the lack of friends, West was lonely both in life and in the game, which also developed his withdrawn character, at that time the Thunder team was still a supersonic team was planned, if no one accepted West, then buy out his contract and let him go.

As a result, the warrior changed, and Chamberlain treated him sincerely, and the more than 500,000 dollars lent to him have not been repaid, and Chamberlain has not mentioned these money since the day he borrowed the money. West is actually the kind of person who repays the grace of a drop of water, but he didn't even give him a drop of water before, and finally he was about to die of thirst in the desert of life, Chamberlain suddenly rushed over and carried him to a spring, West made up his mind at that time, he must work hard to improve his ball skills to help Chamberlain.

West signed an agent before, and the goods chirped to let him transfer every day after he hit the price, West did not hesitate to kick him out immediately, and it was his own choice to stay with the Warriors, as long as Chamberlain was still there, he would also be there.

The two of them looked at each other and were brewing feelings, when a voice as crisp as a wind chime suddenly sounded: "Hey, handsome guys, did my arrival disrupt your arrangements?" ”

Chamberlain turned his head in astonishment and saw Ivanka looking at the two of them with a smile, her blue eyes full of ambiguous light.

West quickly shook off Chamberlain's outstretched arm, he shuddered and explained first: "Madam, things are not what you think, in fact, I have absolutely no interest in men......" He said with a look of sudden realization, and then pushed Chamberlain with a wicked smile and muttered, "So you bastard really want to date beautiful women here, okay, I'm a light bulb, I'm a damn light bulb, I'm going to fuck off......"

Kobe Bryant and others got on the bus, but the car didn't drive, and the driver explained that Wade, the Heat's All-Star guard, was also on the plane at this point and had to be picked up together. As a result, West ran up first, saw him Iverson and asked, "Didn't you chat with Z?" ”

West pouted and said, "How many mouths does he have?" I mean, his mouth is kissing with a beautiful woman right now, so how can he have time to talk to me? ”

As soon as he heard this, Kobe Bryant suddenly came to his senses, he reflexively leaned on the back of the saddle and asked with great interest: "Come on, Delonti, tell us, who is Z having a tryst with?" ”

West held his head up proudly, I'm Z's good brother, of course I have to keep it a secret for him.

I was really surprised to see Ivanka Chamberlain, the former shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be helpless and said: "My luck is really bad, I finally had the courage to skip work and come on vacation, but I ran into the boss again." Hi boss, can you forgive me this time? ”

Chamberlain blinked and said, "Of course it's fine, but depending on how you asked me, go to my room tonight and report your mistake in thinking, and I may forgive you." ”

Ivanka waved her hand and said, "No, boss, I'm going to defend Richard." ”

Hearing her say this, Chamberlain understood: "You are chasing Richard?" ”

Here is the first All-Star Game that Richard has experienced since he joined the Warriors, and the All-Star Game may be held at the Oracle Arena, the home of the Warriors, next year, so the NBA organizing committee sent him an invitation to participate in this All-Star Game.

Ivanka nodded, the smile on her face retracted, and her expression became a little depressed.

Chamberlain didn't know what to say, Richard didn't seem to be very interested in Ivanka, this kid is also a romantic seed, and he has to go to nightclubs with second-tier actresses and socialites every once in a while to roll the sheets, but he has never been to that kind of occasion with Ivanka.

Seeing that the manager's expression was unhappy, Chamberlain, as the boss, must have something to say, and he persuaded: "Take your time in emotional matters, and I'll help you ask Richard what this bastard plans to do when I have time." ”

Ivanka smiled reluctantly: "Don't, Z, thank you for your concern, but we still have to solve this matter ourselves." By the way, what are you doing here? ”

Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Chamberlain's mobile phone rang, he raised it and saw that Sjet was calling, so he explained briefly, saying goodbye to Ivanka and waiting for the arrival of Sjet and Shirley's father.

Sjett was dressed similarly to Kobe, also wearing a black suit, black trousers, black trench coat, black sunglasses, black leather shoes, seeing him Chamberlain rolled his eyes and said: "What are you kidding, the temperature in Phoenix is over 20 degrees Celsius, are you planning to take a sauna?" ”

Sjet shrugged, he narcissistically shook his trench coat and explained: "This is the standard equipment of bodyguards, BOSS, this is the standard equipment of bodyguards all over the world." ”

Chamberlain ignored him, his eyes drawn to a middle-aged man next to Sjet, who was undoubtedly Shirley's father, Kennell Grants.

However, Kenel's impression is a little different from Chamberlain's memory, and he remembers Kenel as an obese middle-aged man who is full of alcohol and drunk at any time. But now the middle-aged man who appeared in front of him was quite thin, he was wearing a set of rough denim clothes, full of gorgeous hair, a face of vicissitudes, although his face had just been shaved, but the messy stubble could still show his downfall.

If Sjett hadn't said this man's name in advance, Chamberlain really wouldn't have recognized his identity, Kennell has changed too much, he used to be a rotten drunkard, but now he seems to be a middle-aged and middle-aged man of fifty years old who has suffered a lot. However, from his thin face, there is still a faint shadow of Shirley, Kenel should have been a beautiful man when he was young, and now he is still a little handsome just looking at the curves of his face.

"Hello, Mr. Z, thank you for taking care of my daughter all the time." When he saw Chamberlain Kennell, he took the initiative to say hello, and his expression was sincere, as if he was a Chinese-style old farmer who saw his daughter's homeroom teacher.

Chamberlain didn't have a good impression of him, he nodded coldly and said: "Shirley is a good girl, you don't have to thank me, I don't take care of her because of you, I just can't see a girl with a bright future ruined in the hands of scum." ”

Kennell clearly felt Chamberlain's hostility and disdain, but he didn't get angry or dissatisfied, just smiled awkwardly, and then kept his head down and stood beside him. So the cold scene phenomenon came out, and Sjet wanted to pick a topic to make the atmosphere better, but considering that his identity was a bodyguard, and silence was his duty, he honestly closed his mouth and ran to the side to stand guard.

Chamberlain looked at Kenel coldly, he opened his mouth to break the awkward atmosphere, and asked, "Mr. Grants, I heard my bodyguard say that you have been looking for me?" Is there anything wrong? ”

Kennell raised his head, he looked at Chamberlain, his lips squirmed a few times, and then said in a low voice: "Mr. Z, can you let me meet Shirley?" In prison I have understood the mistakes I have made in the past, and I think I should apologize to Shirley. ”

Since the meeting, Kenel has always looked like a good old man, but Chamberlain doesn't believe him, this guy has a criminal record, and to be honest, he doesn't want Kenel and Shirley to meet.

Although Shirley is always sunny and positive, but in private, Chamberlain can still find her lonely and inferior side, almost every boy in St. Lawrence Middle School wants to chase Shirley, but Shirley has never accepted the feelings of any boy, even if a few boys are close to her, those people's family background is relatively poor, and Shirley is somewhat similar to the previous Shirley, Shirley seems to be more comfortable with them.

This is not Chamberlain's conjecture, Taylor also discovered this, the two discussed it, and then there was this All-Star period: Shirley wanted to lead the national anthem before the opening of the All-Star Game, and the NBA organizing committee originally invited Taylor, but Taylor recommended Shirley, and NBA Vice President Stu Jackson agreed to her recommendation after meeting Shirley.

Shirley's beauty and voice amazed Jackson, and he believed that this girl would become a national icon in the future, and he believed that with Shirley leading the opening anthem, this year's All-Star Game would be more interesting.

Kennell saw the vigilance and distrust in Chamberlain's eyes, and before the latter refused, he grabbed Chamberlain's arm and begged: "Please believe me, Mr. Z, please believe me, I am Shirley's father, I have hurt her enough before, I will definitely not hurt her again from now on, I just want to see her, I miss her so much, she is my only daughter......"

Looking at the anticipation in Kenel's expression, Chamberlain's original decision was shaken, he was going to give Kenel a little money to send him away, just as Shirley had no father, he thought that time would dilute Shirley's miss of her father, after all, the life of the two together was not pleasant.

Chamberlain hesitated for a moment, he carefully considered the outcome of letting the two meet, and finally came to the conclusion that he could not prevent the two from meeting, after all, this was Shirley's biological father. In the final analysis, I can only say that I am Shirley's guardian, and no matter how deep Shirley's feelings for him are in the future, it is not the kind of feelings that a daughter has for her father.

"Okay." Chamberlain sighed, and he said, "I'll arrange for you and Shirley to meet, but not now, she's preparing a very important thing, you and Sjet are together these days, and you'll see each other in two days." ”

Kennell didn't bargain, nor did he take Chamberlain's words as perfunctory, he held the other party's wrist tightly and said with a grateful face: "Thank you, Mr. Z, thank you very much, I won't hurt Shirley, promise God, I won't hurt Shirley again." ”

Chamberlain shook off Kennell's hand without a trace, he nodded to Sjet, and said in a low voice: "You live together these days, take care of him, don't let him make trouble, you know what Shirley is preparing, you can't go on any business trips during this period!" ”

Sjet said solemnly: "Don't worry, BOSS, you can rest assured that I will do things." ”
