Chapter 384
The next morning, the Lakers players took the team plane back to Los Angeles after a long absence.The players missed their families eagerly, did not stay any longer, and went back to their respective homes.
Xu Tian took a taxi to Walnut City to pick up Alice who had lived there for a long time.
Alice had already packed her luggage and sat quietly on the sofa, waiting for Xu Tian, whom she had missed for a long time.She has a lot to say to Xu Tian face to face.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, Xu Tian arrived at Boss Jin's home in Walnut City. As soon as he walked through the gate, he saw Alice appearing in front of the exquisitely carved wooden door, looking at him intently with a bright smile.
The sun in Los Angeles is very warm, but it is far from Alice's smile at this time.Xu Tian didn't want to say a word, and he didn't need to, because he could know everything from Alice's eyes.
Xu Tian slowly opened his arms, with a smile on his face.
Like a lark, Alice jumped into Xu Tian's arms with joy.Touching the familiar warmth with his right hand, feeling his breathing and heartbeat, the words he wanted to say were passed to his heart unconsciously.
Those words can be summed up in one of the simplest yet most complex words - love.
Xu Tian didn't force it, and he didn't do it deliberately. The three words "I love you" seemed to be just an ordinary greeting, and he said it directly.In the past days, he could never say this simple sentence.
Alice's pupils were dilated, and the love in her eyes almost overflowed from her eyes, and she found Xu Tian's eyes that were also full of love.She didn't expect that the brief parting on the road trip would make Xu Tian express his true inner thoughts.
Alice's mother, Annie King, saw Xu Tian and Alice hugging on the path through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and returned to the living room to continue making her favorite embroidery without making a sound.She is very interested in oriental culture, otherwise she would not marry Boss Jin.
Xu Tian and Alice hugged for a long time in the yard, until their legs became a little numb, and they realized that they should return to the living room.
Boss Jin has already gone to deal with business, but he said in advance that he will be home at noon, so he hasn't prepared lunch yet.
Seeing her daughter and Xu Tian entering the room, Annie said: "Alice, Xiaotian, you two are getting married, you should be more mature, I really don't know how you two will take care of them if you have a baby."
Alice let go of Xu Tian's hand, ran over and said coquettishly, "Mom, even if I don't know how to take care of you, don't you still have you?"
Anne said: "In the United States, parents take care of their children, and grandparents don't care..."
Xu Tian heard the future mother-in-law and fiancee talking about the issue of having a baby, rubbed his forehead helplessly with his right hand, turned around and sat on the sofa in the living room, and silently watched the highlights of other games last night.Since he has stated that he wants to lead his teammates to the championship, he can't just talk casually, he must actually put it into action.
Seeing that Xu Tian had already started watching the highlights of the game, Alice temporarily stopped the conversation with her mother, and asked, "Xiao Tian, did something happen during your away trip? Why did the game commentary last night say that you are both offensive and defensive? The attitude is much more positive.”
Xu Tian sighed after hearing Alice's words: "As expected of a professional commentator, you can even see this kind of change."
"So, what really happened?"
"It's just that after some simple player communication, the goal of hitting the championship has been determined, and there haven't been many changes."
"Are you really going to compete for the championship?" Boss Jin just opened the door and heard Xu Tian's words.
Xu Tian looked back and saw that Boss Jin was carrying a lot of ingredients in his hand, so he walked over to help get the kitchen, and after he came out, he replied: "My goal at the beginning was to win the championship, but now it's just the goal of all the players, and everything has changed. Became an impact championship."
After changing his slippers, Boss Jin recalled the past and said, "Speaking of which, I really miss 09 and 10. Los Angeles was so lively at that time."
Annie never forgot to tease her husband: "At that time I thought you were crazy!"
Boss Jin laughed out loud, and said, "It's the first time a Los Angeles team has reached the top of the NBA after a few years. It must be a big event worthy of celebration in the whole city. Of course, I can't make an exception."
Annie said: "Okay, what you said is right! Xiaotian is back, you should cook some special dishes first."
Only then did Boss Jin think of his business, walked into the kitchen, and soon got busy.
Xu Tian said, "Xiao Ming, go and help Dad cook." He was still used to calling Alice by her Chinese name.
Alice has admiration for Xu Tian, and she rarely refutes him, and cooking is indeed what girls should do, so she didn't refuse.
Xu Tian was not idle, and quickly watched the highlights of a few games to see if there was any change in the overall tactics of each team recently.
Li Lang still had an unfinished interview with "People" magazine. Thinking that Xu Tian had almost returned to Los Angeles, he tried to send a WeChat message: "Xiaotian, have you returned to Los Angeles?"
Xu Tian heard the WeChat notification, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, saw that it was a message from Li Lang, and replied, "I just arrived in Walnut City, is there anything wrong?"
"The interview with "People" magazine has been delayed for a while. If you are free today or tomorrow, hurry up and complete this delayed schedule."
When Xu Tian saw the news, he remembered that Li Lang had mentioned that "People" magazine wanted to interview him. At that time, he agreed, but no one mentioned it for a long time, so he forgot it in the corner.After thinking for a while, he replied to Li Lang: "There is a team training this afternoon, and I will go to the appointment tomorrow. Please contact me in advance to confirm the time."
"Okay, no problem." Li Lang gave a happy answer.
Xu Tian asked politely: "Li Lang, how are you doing recently, I have never greeted you."
"In less than nine months, I'm going to be a father."
When Xu Tian saw this news, he was a little surprised at first, but then thought of Li Lang's age, and thought it was a very normal thing, so he replied: "Congratulations! When your child is born, I will definitely give you a big red envelope."
"I really don't need money." Li Lang bought shares in every business of Xu Tian, and made a lot of money. "If it's really possible, help Los Angeles and the Lakers win the championship."
"I will do my best. As for the result, it is hard to say now, but the goal of the whole team is indeed the championship."
"Come on! Then I won't bother you. I'll help you contact the editor-in-chief of People magazine."
Xu Tian chatted briefly with Li Lang again, ending the conversation.
Annie remembered something Li Feng had asked her to do, and said, "Xiao Tian, the nephew of Li Lang's fiancée, said that he wanted to invite you to watch the Bruins' 32-to-16 game. The Lakers had a rest that night."
Xu Tian agreed to his future mother-in-law, and immediately began to search Li Feng's WeChat, asking him when the game day was.
