no shortcuts in basketball

Chapter 231 Auntie, I can
"Senior, did you read that article?" During training the next day, Butler came in and asked Xu Yong.

"what?"

"I am going home."

Xu Yong shook his head.

Butler then took out his cell phone, flipped to James's article and handed it to him.

Xu Yong watched for a while and couldn't help but laugh.

"A very affectionate article." He went on to comment.

"Yes, to be honest, if LeBron hadn't written it, I would have been moved." Butler nodded.

"Don't look at a person's words, but what he does." Xu Yong said.

"Like those politicians?"

"This metaphor is very vivid." Xu Yong nodded in agreement. Butler has quite a dark sense of humor.

But it is indeed the case. If the Cavaliers did not trade Wiggins for Love, and then James returned to the Cavaliers, then this article is indeed as touching as Butler said (although not much, after all, Irving and David Stuart has grown up).

But now, you wait until someone has traded Love before posting an article like this, and you don't mention Love at all in it. This is obviously an excuse for you to join forces again.

Or to use that very vivid word to describe it: Even if you become a bitch, you should build a memorial for yourself.

Of course, just like the fans in Miami when the top three teamed up, Cleveland fans will just put up this memorial.

After all, the Cavaliers have not made the playoffs in the past two years, and now they suddenly become the favorite team to compete for the championship. How could they not be happy?
Xu Yong casually scrolled through social media, where many Cleveland fans were already celebrating.

The most popular is a video shot by a kid who dug out the jersey he had buried four years ago from the corner of his backyard, put it back on, and did James' signature powder-throwing move.

Fans don’t know why the jersey this kid wore four years ago fits him perfectly now. Anyway, it’s enough to be impressed.

Adams also arrived at this time, and the three quickly started training.

And they were particularly energetic in training today.

After all, who wouldn’t want to beat one of the legendary Big Four teams?
After training that day, when he returned to the manor, someone came to visit him.

The person who came had had contact with Schwartz before and was from Warner Company.

"We are preparing to launch the plan for "Space Jam 2" and would like to invite you to appear, of course as the starring role."

Space Jam?
Xu Yong was a little surprised.

There are actually quite a few basketball-themed movies, such as "Coach Carter", "Path of Glory", "Jordan's Descendants", and "Hot Coach", all of which have good reputations. There are also "One Up" (Ray Allen) starring current players, "Thunder" (Durant) and so on.

But when it comes to box office, it has to be "Space Jam".

It’s not that this movie is that good. This movie, which is a combination of real people and animated characters, is actually a bad movie in the eyes of many professional film critics, but because his starring role is Jordan, it has certainly become the best movie of all time. The highest-grossing basketball movie ever, reaching $2.3 million.

You know, that was in 1995, and it ended up ranking ninth among the global box office grossers in 1996, making Warner money.

There was no way, Jordan's global influence at that time was too great.

In Xu Yong's last life, James continued filming "Space Jam 2021" in 2, which ended with a total box office of 1.44 million and Warner's loss of 2.5 million.

The sequel to this movie, with Jordan in the lead, could easily become a continuation of the past.

After all, who is qualified to make a sequel to Jordan?James always licked his face at first, but he ended up looking disgraced.

But now Warner takes the initiative to find Xu Yong, obviously thinking that he has the qualifications.

This is normal. Jordan had not won his first championship when he was 25 years old. Xu Yong already has 2 championships, 2 MVPs and 2 FMVPs in hand.

"I have to train this summer, so I probably won't have the time." Xu Yong replied after thinking for a while.

He is not so resistant to making this movie. After all, his influence is here now, and with the support of the rising Chinese film market behind him, it is basically a guaranteed profit if it is made.

Being able to blossom in culture and sports is also a feedback to the fans who support him.

Not to mention that it is tantamount to taking other people's paths and leaving others with nowhere to go.

It's just like what he said. After last season's loss and the formation of the Cavaliers' Big Four, he needs to concentrate on training. Even if the filming time is not long, it will definitely be delayed.

"Don't worry about this, we will build an indoor court next to the movie studio and it won't delay your training."

Xu Yong was even more surprised when he heard this.

Build a stadium for filming a movie?Is there such an operation?

"And we will also invite other stars to participate, so I think we can even have full-field confrontation training." The other party continued to add.

Xu Yong couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He was obviously prepared.

However, Warner had shown his sincerity to this point, and he felt embarrassed if he refused, so he immediately agreed.

The two parties discussed the specific shooting time of the movie. Warner had already designed the script and so on, and Xu Yong didn't offer any opinions.

After all, he doesn't understand this stuff very well, and what movie fans like this want to watch is not the movie, but you.

After seeing off Warner's people, Xu Yong lit a cigar and scrolled through social media.

The Bulls just made a new signing.

They signed James Johnson back with a two-year, $2 million contract.

Johnson's playing style has gradually become fixed with the Grizzlies over the years, from the original swingman to a power forward.

The Bulls signed him mainly to replace the departing Chris Anderson, who was signed by the Grizzlies for 2 million in 1000 years.

As for the secondary one, it is to add a [beater] role to the team.

When the Bulls encountered conflicts last season, Butler and Xu Yong were required to appear in person, which was obviously not cost-effective.

Now that he has signed back this NBA fighting goat, others will have to think twice before taking action against the Bulls.

Then he got another piece of bombshell news.

Danny Granger signed with the Pacers for 2 years and 600 million in the mid-level.

Granger had surgery in the summer and was not expected to return until December. Not only was he given up by the Heat, but there was no good market in the free market. Unexpectedly, he was signed back by the Pacers.

The relationship between James and the Pacers is now incompatible, and Bird has signed Granger, who was deposed by James. If they meet on the court, it will be exciting to think about it.

I just don't know how far Granger can recover. In history, he was useless after being padded, but the situation now is a little different from that time.

After checking social media, he put down his phone and was about to take a rest.

The phone vibrated as soon as I put it on the table.

He picked it up and read it. It was a text message from Artest, asking if he was free.

He dialed back directly.

It was quickly picked up over there.

After some reminiscing, Artest expressed his intentions.

He wanted Xu Yong to help find a job.

"If you don't help me, I might have to go to CBA."

Although the tone was joking, the desolation in the words could be completely felt.

He originally signed a two-year contract with the Knicks, with a player option for the second year. However, due to a knee injury last season and poor condition, he was waived by the Knicks in January and has been unemployed ever since. In terms of status, no one cares about it this summer.

"You come to Chicago first."

Xu Yong hung up the phone after giving his reply, then leaned back in his chair and continued to smoke his cigar.

With his current status on the team and his relationship with Foreman, if he really asks to sign someone, he can do it.

However, he did not want to directly interfere with the management's decision-making. This was also the reason why he only mentioned Jokic when chatting with Battier during the previous draft, instead of calling Foreman directly.

Including when Butler and Adams were drafting before, it was Foreman who found him, and he gave him his own opinions. He decided whether to select Foreman. For example, he originally wanted to choose Antetokounmpo, but Foreman Mann's final choice was Adams.

He was a little influenced by Jordan in this regard. Jerry Krause, the Bulls general manager who was at loggerheads with Jordan, personally admitted that Jordan never asked him who to draft or trade.

Because Jordan is the kind of person who doesn't think he has to rely on others to win.

However, Artest's situation is quite special. He is a former teammate, and because he had a good relationship with Yao Ming at the beginning, he still had to help him if he could.

But he also needs to take a look at Artest's condition. If he really can't play in the NBA and insists on signing him, it will really hurt the team.

Two days later, Xu Yong met Artest at the United Center.

Artest shaved his entire face, including his hair, and looked like he had returned to his youthful appearance when he first entered the league. However, his bloated body and haggard face betrayed him. New York is indeed a Fallen city.

Speaking of which, he is only 35 years old this year. You must know that Rodman was only 34 years old when he joined the Bulls.

"Let's stay and train together first." Xu Yong said. Artest's state cannot help the Bulls.

Artest hesitated and nodded. Although Xu Yong did not directly agree to him, this was his only chance.

……

A week later.

Foreman shows up at the arena.

Today is the day for new players to sign, but he arrived at the gym an hour early and went to the training hall first.

Then, the training inside was observed without others knowing.

When the people inside found him, he stepped forward with a smile.

"Ron, do you have a contract now?" Because there was still the matter of signing a contract later, Forman also took the time to get to the point.

When Artest saw Forman, he knew it was Xu Yong who had come to him, so he immediately shook his head when he heard this.

"The Bulls can offer you a one-year guaranteed contract, but with a basic salary, are you willing to come back?" Foreman continued.

Artest nodded happily after hearing this. He originally thought that Xu Yong would get a non-guaranteed contract for himself at most, but he didn't expect that it would be guaranteed.

"You come to the office in half an hour and sign the contract with the others." Forman was helping Artest save the agent's money.

When Foreman left, Xu Yong followed him out.

"Ron's condition seems to be normal?" Foreman turned around and asked when he reached the door.

One week can't change many things. Artest is still so bloated. He is purely selling Xu Yong's face.

"After this week, I can feel that he still has gas in the tank and his attitude is positive, and..." Xu Yong paused and said, "Ron was also a contributor to the two consecutive championships that year."

Forman didn't say much when he heard this. He nodded and told him to pay more attention to his health after suffering from the recent flu, and then went about his own work.

An hour later, the training hall became very lively.

After Artest, James Johnson, Miller Sr. and Kyle Anderson signed the contract, they all came over to say hello when they learned that Xu Yong was in the training hall.

Without Jokic, as Xu Yong knew before, Jokic is still a "barrel centenarian" and cannot play in the NBA. However, the Bulls have sent a trainer there. Jokic's main goal this year is Lose weight in Serbia, and then try to land in the NBA next season.

Xu Yong was attracted to Johnson at first sight. This guy has changed a lot in four years.

His body has become much stronger than before, and coupled with the long beard, it looks like three big words from a distance: Don't mess with me.

Although, he still looks so harmless when he smiles.

When he saw Xu Yong, he took the initiative to open his hands and gave Xu Yong a big, strong hug.

Xu Yong also smiled and patted his back hard.

As rookies who were drafted by the Bulls together, their relationship is somewhat special.

Anderson was very excited when he saw Xu Yong, not only because of Xu Yong's status in the league, but also because of the blood relationship that spanned several generations.

Seeing his appearance, Xu Yong took the initiative to shake hands with him.

This excited Anderson so much: "I didn't even wash my hands today."

Xu Yong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then laughed. This little guy is quite cute.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Artest, Johnson, and Anderson were all ready to join the training camp.

It was originally just Xu Yong and the three of them, but now it has expanded to six people. With a few more people added, it feels like a mini training camp.

Xu Yong was naturally happy to see such a result.

The more teammates you practice in the summer, the faster the Bulls will get into shape in the new season.

A few days later, Ross came over after hearing the news.

He is also troubled by injuries, but his current body shape is much better than that of Artest, and he is exactly the same as before the injury.

Although he was unable to play, he has been working hard to recover after being successfully enlightened by Xu Yong.

Moreover, he also cut his hair back to the most familiar short-cut haircut in his early years, and his beard was cleanly shaved, looking full of energy.

During training, Xu Yong also felt changes in his playing style.

This time, the roses seemed to be blooming again.

……

Time flies to the end of July, Xu Yong temporarily left Chicago and went to Los Angeles to shoot "Space Jam 7".

Here, he met those other stars that Warner mentioned before, and the formation was slightly larger than [-] million points.

Iverson, Carter, McGrady, Kobe, Durant, Harden, Curry, Leonard...even Jordan.

Although most of these are just cameos, Warner's ambitions are all reflected in this list.

This feels like a lot of marinade. If you just marinate a slipper, it will taste quite delicious.

And the script of this 2 is actually not bad, at least it is much better than the one Xu Yong knew about James saving his son.

The script of 2 is connected from 1. Jordan retired for the second time. The legend of the God of Basketball is no longer there. The basketball world on the earth is ruled by the four shooting guards. In order to prevent the amusement park from closing down, the boss of Monster Planet personally went out this time and captured the four major points in advance. guard's ability and issued invitations to basketball games.

Without the four shooting guards, the earth team was defeated, and Bugs Bunny and others were kidnapped.

The boss of Monster Planet is also very arrogant. He put down harsh words before leaving. If the Earth team still has the confidence to challenge them one day, he will accept another challenge.

However, as the four major shooting guards lost their abilities, not to mention the challenge, even the basketball level began to regress significantly. Experts predicted that not only the era of Warner Animation is over, but also the basketball on earth will usher in an ice age.

Fast forward eight years later, and Los Angeles is hosting its annual All-Star Game.

The fans were shouting wildly and the players on the field were performing to their heart's content.

Unlike what experts predicted, basketball on earth has not entered an ice age. Instead, it has ushered in a new era. Xu Yong, Durant, Harden, Curry, and Leonard have ushered in a new era.

Basketball technology is like human civilization. As long as there is fire, there is hope.

But at this time, Warner Animation was about to reach its end. After losing cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny, they could never complete their revival.

In order to prevent Warner Animation from dying out, the president of Warner personally visited the new generation of rising stars with an uneasy heart, hoping that they could challenge the Monster Planet, although he knew that doing so would be difficult.

But what he never expected was that all the rising stars headed by Xu Yong agreed unanimously.

Because of the failure eight years ago, they also want to avenge the earth team's shame.

New challenges have arrived, and the world is excited.

However, the day before the game, the boss of Monster Planet repeated his old tricks and wanted to rob the rising stars of their abilities before the game.

But this time, the rising stars used their own methods to avoid the plunder. For example, Durant used bath water to short-circuit the monster machine, Curry tricked the monster by dressing up as a child, and the expression on Leonard's face frightened the monster. As for Xu Yong, the monster found that it was impossible to plunder it.

The monsters' plunder plan failed, but the monster boss was not angry, but still full of confidence.

The next day, the day of the competition arrived. Because the new stars still had their abilities, the people on earth felt that they were in sight of victory.

But what they didn't expect was that the monster boss had already prepared. He had backed up the abilities of the super giants eight years ago. The abilities of Barkley, Ewing, Bogues, Larry Johnson and others were still there.

Monster Boss knows that the level of basketball on earth is declining and he must win.

However, after the game actually started, he found that something was wrong.

The new stars headed by Xu Yong were not inferior when they competed with the monsters at the beginning, and even began to show their abilities after gradually adapting to the confrontation. Durant shot the monster Ewing, Leonard robbed the monster Barkley, and Harden shook off the monster. Inverted monster aunt, Curry dunked monster Boggs.

Facts have proved that basketball technology is constantly improving, including players' physical fitness and so on. The argument that the past is more important than the present is not true.

They took the lead in the first half, and the people on earth started cheering. They already felt that victory was around the corner.

But back in the second half, a person appeared on the stage and plunged the people on earth into fear.

Because Monster Boss has unleashed his last and most powerful weapon, Monster Jordan.

It turns out that although the monsters failed to plunder the new stars last night, they succeeded in plundering Jordan's abilities.

And Monster Jordan not only has Jordan's abilities, he even has Jordan's perfect body.Jordan used his super fadeaway to beat Xu Yong successfully, and then dunked Leonard and completed the block on Durant. The strength of the basketball god and the enhancement of the monster are simply the most powerful in the universe. Perfect existence.

The Earth team has no hope.

But they still have hope.

Xu Yong realized the true meaning of [Zone] in a desperate situation and became another earth player who entered the white-hot space after Jordan. He began to lead the new stars to counterattack, and at the last moment he turned around and faced the monster Jordan to complete the game. Killer.

The Earth team finally won, and Bugs Bunny finally returned to Earth.

A very Hollywood-style script, but the biggest difference from 1 is that there are fewer animated characters. It is more inclined to basketball movies, which can be regarded as Warner's improvement on the basis of 1.

Moreover, this script does not involve any father-son topics, but expresses the inheritance of stars and basketball skills, which will definitely resonate with fans.

Of course, film shooting is only part of their job. The greater fun lies in the basketball confrontation after a day's work.

Because not only those people participated in the filming, Warner also invited stars such as Paul, Anthony, and George.

The stars all have their own things to be busy with in the summer. Knowing that there is such an opportunity to discuss things, they are naturally happy to come.

Then all of them discovered something, Xu Yong became stronger again.

That strength does not come from new basketball technology, but from stability.

Xu Yong's breakthroughs, shooting, and rhythm changes all give people a more casual feeling.

Or to be more vivid, they felt as if they were facing Jordan.

“No team is going to want to run into us next year.”

Xu Yong's words still ring in their ears, and now they have felt it in advance.

……

By late August, the filming of the movie had been completed. Instead of returning to Chicago, Xu Yong set off directly for Spain.

He will represent the national team in the Spanish Men's Basketball World Cup, which is also the first Men's Basketball World Cup.

For the Chinese men's basketball team, Yao Ming still travels with the team, but not as a player, but as a team leader.

This is the first time that the men's basketball team will compete without Yao Ming.

However, the Chinese men's basketball team still has four NBA players in Xu Yong, Jeremy Lin, Yi Jianlian, and Zhou Qi. Together with Guo Ailun, who has performed well in the European League, and Ding Yanyuhang, who has performed well in the NCAA, the overall strength is still strong.

In the end, the men's basketball team also ended up in second place. They lost to the Dream Team in the finals. Without Yao Ming's advantage in the paint, it was still difficult for them to defeat the Dream Team.

After the World Cup, Xu Yong did not immediately return to China with the team. Instead, he flew to Paris, France, where he needed to shoot a Dior perfume commercial.

This was part of the itinerary, and Xu Yong didn't pay much attention to it at first. After all, he had shot a lot of commercials over the years, doing makeup and modeling, and only doing a few actions at most.

But when he arrived, he found that it was not that simple, because he actually saw... Theron.

This time it’s no longer wallpaper in the window, but a real person, and it’s Theron in makeup ready to shoot a commercial.

How should I put it, Xu Yong was frozen the moment he saw Theron.

Golden curly hair, smooth back, slender long legs, sexy figure, and finally that dignified and beautiful face.jpg.

From Megan Fox, to Swift, to Scarlett Johansson, Xu Yong has had in-depth contact with many actresses, but compared to her temperament, Theron is really unique. Your first reaction when you see her It’s the appreciation of beautiful things.

Moreover, Theron is 39 years old this year, which is older than Xu Yong's age before he was reborn. It's not too much for him to call him aunt now.

But with Salon's skin and figure, without joking, this aunt is really good.

Filming for Theron's commercial soon began.

She was wearing a golden silk dress and a black silk robe. She stepped forward on high heels. At this time, a golden ribbon fell from the front. She picked it up with her right hand and the silk robe slipped from her shoulders. Revealing her smooth back, she then kicked off her high heels. Her sexy long legs were wrapped around a ribbon. She grabbed the ribbon and began to climb up against the light above her head.

She had really practiced it. She didn't just do a single movement, but climbed for a while, and then pulled off the necklace in the air. The necklace fell into a ball after falling to the ground, and she continued to climb up.gif.

There was no Wia in the whole process. I have to say that she was really bold and made people not feel her weaker side at all.

But thinking about her future films like Mad Max: Fury Road, it seems normal again.

At this time, the advertising director shouted stop and then extended his hand to signal.

I can watch this advertisement over and over again. This business ability is really not ordinary.

Theron was also ready to get off the ribbon at this time.

But at this moment, Xu Yong noticed that Theron seemed to be a little exhausted, but the other staff did not notice this.

He didn't have time to remind him and walked over quickly.

Before he could reach it, Theron let go with a scream.

His powerful explosive power came into play at this moment. He rushed below just before that, then opened his hands to catch Theron who fell.

There was a huge impact. Although Theron is slender, he is 1 meters tall and weighs close to 77 kilograms.

Fortunately, the position where she climbed was only about two and a half meters and not very high, otherwise he would really not be able to catch her this time.

It wasn't until Xu Yong caught the person that other staff members reacted and came over quickly.

Xu Yong put down the shocked Theron, and then the staff began to ask about her condition.

Seeing this, Xu Yong also retreated, and then left with the person who brought his own people.

At this moment, Xu Yong felt eyes behind him. Looking back, he saw Theron, who had recovered from his nerves and was looking at him with grateful eyes.

He nodded and continued to the next location to shoot his commercial.

It was already evening when the commercial shooting was over. When Xu Yong came out of the venue, he found that Theron had changed into casual clothes and was waiting for him at the door.

"Thank you." Theron came here specifically to say thank you.

"It's easy, don't worry too much." Xu Yong said with a smile.

"Do you have time? If you don't mind, I would like to invite you to dinner to express my gratitude." Theron invited warmly.

Xu Yong originally didn't want to be thanked, but it would be impolite to refuse others, so he was so kind but he finally nodded.

The two left the shooting location, but what Xu Yong didn't expect was that Theron actually drove the car himself.

And when she wore sunglasses while driving, when the car drove out of the underground garage, the golden sunset shone on her face, as if she had returned to the scene when filming an advertisement, and people couldn't help but admire it.

"Are you used to French food?" At this moment, Theron asked.

Only then did Xu Yong realize that he had been staring at the person for a while. He turned back and said, "You can give it a try."

"If you don't like it, I can cook Chinese food for you." Theron continued.

Xu Yong turned his head again in surprise: "Can you cook? No, you can cook Chinese food?"

He was really surprised. Even if you are so sassy, ​​if you can still go to the kitchen, how can other women live?

"It's just a little bit, but I still suggest that we go for French food."

It seems that Theron is mainly worried that he will not be used to French food. After all, the main feature of French food is half-cooked or raw food. Snails and foie gras are the most classic ones, which are not acceptable to most people.

"Then let me try your craft." Xu Yong made his choice. He was mainly curious.

Theron heard this and turned the car around, then drove toward his home.

About half an hour later, they arrived at Theron's mansion in the suburbs of Paris.

It's not an old castle, but a very modern house, except that the architectural style is somewhat French classic Gothic.

Theron went to the kitchen and he was given a tour by the servants.

About an hour later, they arrived at the restaurant.

There was a table full of sumptuous dishes, but of course only three of them were Chinese dishes made by Theron, and they were sweet and simple, namely sweet and sour pork tenderloin, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and shrimps with white vinegar. The rest were French dishes made by her chef at home. vegetable.

Well, Theron is very down-to-earth, and she really doesn’t know much.

Of course, the dining table has a strong sense of ceremony, with candlelight and red wine also included.

"I live in Los Angeles most of the time and rarely go back to France, so there aren't a lot of ingredients here." Theron explained for himself.

"You know, but not everyone has the opportunity to taste the food cooked by Charlize Theron." Xu Yong is very good at talking.

Theron smiled when he heard this, then picked up the red wine glass and thanked Xu Yong.

Xu Yong took a sip. The wine tasted pure and felt more upscale than the one he drank with David West.

"Is your hand okay?" Theron asked after putting down the glass.

"It's okay." Xu Yong shook his head. Even if Theron fell from ten meters away, he could catch it. After all, he would not be injured.

"But you should still take some safety measures next time you shoot this kind of commercial." He then reminded that if he hadn't been there today, Theron would have been injured.

"This commercial has been shot before, and there were (safety measures) at that time, but the shooting effect was not good, and it was later canceled. It has been successful before and there was no problem. Today I am going to fill in some details. Maybe it is because I have been under too much pressure recently and my body is The condition is not very good." Theron said and pressed his head.

"You must pay attention to your body no matter what, it is the capital of your career." Xu Yong suddenly realized and also said.

Theron smiled, and the two quickly started talking.

From Chinese food, we talked about Chinese culture, to stories about South Africa, to career and life.

Perhaps because they are of similar mental age, they have a lot to talk about.

This is also the biggest difference Xu Yong feels when communicating with previous actresses.

And Xu Yong can feel that Theron has a tendency to confide, but this is normal, as career-minded strong women have this tendency.

As they chatted more, the two of them drank more and more.

Then, Xu Yong couldn't remember clearly what happened next.

It seemed that he helped Theron back to his room to rest, and then came out to find a sofa to sleep on.

But for some reason, I seemed to fall asleep, and then I had a dream. I only remember some vague fragments.

Then when he woke up the next day, his head hurt. When he recovered, he saw that he was sleeping naked on the bed. The sun was already shining on his buttocks. It must be almost noon.

When he sat up and calmed down for a while, more fragments began to appear in his mind, finally stringing together the memories of last night.

[-] words are omitted here.

This time it was purely an accident. He admired Theron more, but the feeling last night was indeed very different.

And both of them are so committed that there are no protection measures like Theron filming commercials.

Tried several times.

Also called aunt.

He shook his head, got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower, then got dressed and went downstairs.

When he went down, he found that Theron was not there, only the cook from yesterday.

Seeing him coming down, the kitchen went to prepare breakfast for him.

He went outside to get some air, only to find a servant playing with a two-year-old child in the yard.

He was stunned when he saw this.

He didn't have much impression about whether Theron was married.

If this was a wife, he...

He didn't look at the child again, but turned around to leave.

But at this moment, he saw Theron coming back from outside.

The two looked at each other, both looking a little embarrassed.

After all, it was just a treat for me to have a meal, but who would have thought that I would end up eating in bed.

After all, Xu Yong and Scarlett have been separated for more than half a year, but I didn't expect that the contrast between Theron after drinking and reality would be so big.

"Have you had breakfast?" But the Sai King is the Sai King after all, and he immediately returned to normal after the initial embarrassment.

"not yet."

"Let's eat together." Theron said, walking up to the child and kissing him, then turned and walked inside.

Xu Yong was stunned for a moment, but still followed.

"Did you go out early?" Xu Yong asked curiously after sitting down.

"Well, there is an event in the morning." Theron replied with a smile.

Xu Yong felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. If he knew that she had work in the morning, he wouldn't have been like that last night, or at least keep it in check.

Then he remembered the child in the yard.

"Is that your son?" he couldn't help but ask.

Theron nodded.

Xu Yong was stunned on the spot.

Is Theron really a wife?

But maybe they are divorced?
But the child is still so young, so that's unlikely.

This, this, this, he made a big mistake!
"Jackson is the child I adopted two years ago."

Then Theron's next words really made Xu Yong stunned again.

This ups and downs are a bit fast.

Xu Yong originally wanted to ask you if you are not married yet?If she has never been married, she would be considered an older leftover woman at the age of 39.

But when I think about it, it seems a little too impolite to ask this.

"I have never been married and I don't plan to have children, so I adopted one." However, Theron was honest.

"That's not bad." Xu Yong nodded. Although he didn't know why Theron was here, everyone has their own life.

And Theron said he didn’t want children, so he probably took other measures last night.

After breakfast, Theron personally sent Xu Yong to the airport.

After getting on the plane, Xu Yong still felt that this trip to Paris was a bit unreal.

The plane arrived in Shanghai, and the next day, David West also arrived in Shanghai.

He had promised the other party before that he would be their tour guide.

From the moment he stepped off the plane, West seemed surprised.

Xu Yong took him around, and West was like a child whose knowledge was constantly being refreshed.

In the evening, Xu Yong even took him to eat at a roadside barbecue stall.

It was fine in the front, but after someone recognized them, the scene got a little out of control.

In the end, they had to grab their own food and escape in a car.

Then the two grown men pulled out their desks in the back seat of the car and started drinking and having barbecue there.

"You know what? They keep telling us that China is the most unsafe place in the world at night." West sighed after taking a sip of beer.

Xu Yong smiled, picked up the wine jar and touched it with West.

He has lived in the United States for so many years, and of course he knows this. Freedom of speech is a very unreal thing, because people's cognition is affected by the affairs they receive, and the means by which ordinary people receive affairs come from the media, so the key is not speech. Whether it is resources or not depends on the content reported by the media.

"Now I feel that those words may not be entirely wrong, at least..." West raised the skewers in his hands, "This thing is really dangerous."

After saying that, he took a big bite and couldn't help but nod.

Xu Yong couldn't help laughing after seeing it. West had already mastered the wealth code of foreigners becoming bloggers in China.

But he does feel what West has gained from this trip.

And he also had the idea of ​​going out for more walks.

After all, one-sided media reports are the same everywhere. Now that he has this ability, going out to see more of the world during the offseason can also make his new life more exciting.

Of course, that's for next year, and this year's offseason is drawing to a close.

In two days, he will return to the United States with West and then start the team's official training camp.

In the new season, the challenges they face are unprecedented, but it is also foreseeable that it will be the most exciting season.
