31. Go to my room!
"cheers!"
In Room 1608 of the Grand Salt Club Hotel in Salt Lake City, Liu Xiu, Travis Outlaw and Matt Carroll toasted to celebrate.
Two hours ago, the Trail Blazers defeated the Pacers. After winning the preliminaries, Liu Xiu's three-person team received another good news - Matt Carroll received a 1-year high of 35
A contract worth ten thousand dollars.
At 10:30 p.m., Liu Xiu and Travis Outlaw came to Matt Carroll's room to celebrate.
The wealthy Trail Blazers arrange a separate room for each player, whether it is the regular season, preseason, or summer league.
It is said that it was initially because he was worried that the team members would start fighting in the room.
"Congratulations, Matt, you got the contract!" Liu Xiu said sincerely.
"It's just a partially guaranteed contract. It depends on subsequent performance. I must make this contract a guaranteed contract and then get the next contract!" Matt Carroll tried to restrain himself, but his tone still rose unconsciously.
.
Liu Xiu refilled a glass of wine for Matt Carroll, refilled a glass for himself, and raised his glass again: "Matt, if it were you, I believe you can do it."
Matt Carroll immediately picked up the wine glass and drank with Liu Xiu.
Feeling the sincerity of Liu Xiu's blessing, Travis Outlaw said sourly: "Jess, I've never seen you praise me so much. I got the contract a long time ago!"
"Both of us are first-round picks and already have contracts. Why are you praising us?"
Hearing the confusion in Liu Xiu's tone, Travis Outlaw was a little angry! However, a bit of pride emerged.
"Healing +26, from Travis Outlaw."
The healing value increased slightly. Liu Xiu was very satisfied and said to Travis Outlaw: "The three of us are at different stages. Travis, you are the youngest. You just need to show your ability."
Your talent is enough, I need to show my strengths to the coaches. We played very well in this Rocky Mountain Summer League, like stars. In fact, in this level of competition, we just did what we should
What I did was not very special.”
"I thought I played pretty well..." Travis Outlaw showed a hint of frustration.
The warm-hearted brother Matt Carroll quickly said to his high school student brother: "Of course you played well, don't be too frustrated. What Jace means is that he has known for a long time that you have such ability and talent. I guess he is
I want to remind you that it will be completely different after entering the NBA."
Hearing this, Travis Outlaw looked at Liu Xiu with gleaming eyes.
Liu Xiu didn't expect that Matt Carroll couldn't play well, and he saw quite clearly in this aspect.
Seeing Travis Outlaw's "please praise me yourself" look, Liu Xiu reassured decisively:
"Okay, okay, to encourage you, after the Rocky Mountain Summer League is over, my brother will take you to the amusement park..."
"Jace, I'm going to fight you! Matt, don't stop me, I'm going to challenge him... Hey, hey... Don't really let go..."
…
It was early in the morning when Liu Xiu left Matt Carroll's room.
Travis Outlaw stayed in Matt Carroll's room, partly because he drank too much, and partly because he was afraid of being photographed by reporters when he walked out drunk. This guy can order takeout, but he can't drink.
Liu Xiu's room was not on the same floor as the two of them. She took the elevator back to the 20th floor. When she came out, she accidentally came to the large terrace in the other direction of the elevator to enjoy the breeze... Entering the terrace, you will see a beautiful scene.
screen.
As the saying goes, the moon has few stars. It is not the middle of the lunar month. There is only a crescent moon in the northern hemisphere.
In the extremely clear night sky, the stars are full of stars, emitting soft light and falling on the terrace.
In the dog days of summer, wisps of light wind blow by, but the air is still filled with heat.
A tall girl, wearing a white suspender skirt and a layer of tulle on her shoulders, leaned on the railing, with bright eyes and white teeth, and her skin was as white as snow.
Anne Hathaway!
Liu Xiu didn't expect that this...American rising star?...would actually live here.
But this is one of the best hotels in Salt Lake City. Even if you meet a celebrity, it's not anything special.
This picture is quite beautiful.
However, Liu Xiu saw that Anfernee Hathaway seemed to have countless worries on her eyebrows, holding a bottle of wine in her hand and bringing it to her mouth...
Anfernee Hathaway was about to take a sip when she raised her head and glanced in the direction of the elevator. Someone was coming!
"Ah... I'm sorry, I'm here to blow some air. You go on and act like there's no one else."
"..."
Anfernee Hathaway first put down the bottle, looked at Liu Xiu, then took the bottle to her mouth and took a sip, saying: "You said you come and blow the air, let me continue drinking, don't worry about you... then you
Why are you staring at me?"
"You look good!"
"???"
Anne Hathaway didn't expect to get this answer, and she was so confident!
She stopped talking confidently. She didn't even feel any flattering feeling in the other person's tone, as if he was simply telling a fact.
Don't tell me, she really likes this feeling...
Liu Xiu continued: "I came to cool off and saw a beautiful girl drinking under the stars. Do you think I should look at it? Are you questioning my aesthetics or your charm?"
"Pfft... hahaha... cough cough."
Anne Hathaway couldn't hold back her laughter for a moment, coughed twice and turned her back to Liu Xiu.
But the shoulders that were still shrugging showed that she was still smiling.
After a while, Anne Hathaway saw no movement behind her, so she turned around and saw... Liu Xiu had walked to the other side of the terrace, resting her hands on the railing, looking up at the stars, with a sense of languor all over her body.
lazy.
Anne Hathaway had just escaped from the troubles caused by work. When she saw this scene, she felt indescribable.
Liu Xiu felt Anne Hathaway's eyes, turned around and said: "Are you done laughing? Then let's get to know each other, my name is..."
"You are Jess, an NBA player from Syracuse University." Anne Hathaway answered quickly.
"Wow, a big star like Anne Hathaway actually knows me!"
"I'm a student at New York University. Of course I know you. I've also seen your boxing matches...but I'm not a big star."
"Aren't you a big star?"
"I'm not. Do you know what movies I have acted in? What TV series?"
"Uh..." Both Alice in Wonderland and Alice in Wonderland are very popular... but there are still many years between them!
Liu Xiu thought for a while and said, "I don't know what movies you have acted in yet, but one day you will definitely become a famous star all over the world."
It's not like Anne Hathaway has never heard compliments before, but when she heard them from Liu Xiu's mouth, she got a very special feeling - this man seemed to be telling a fact!
Anne Hathaway asked curiously: "Jace, do you really think I can become a world-famous star?"
Liu Xiu responded: "Of course."
Still so sure, still as if she was saying something must happen, Anne Hathaway continued to ask: "Why?"
"Why?"
"Hmm, why?"
"Let me think about it...you look good!"
"???" Anne Hathaway had been looking forward to it for a long time, but she didn't expect such an answer. She asked strangely: "Do you care whether a woman is good-looking or not?"
"Why can't I care whether a woman is good-looking or not?"
"You look like you and you are an athlete. You are never short of beauties around you, right?"
"Well...that makes sense, but to have someone as beautiful as you, since I was little, except for my mother and my aunt, there has been no one else."
"Your mother and aunt...that's right. To have a child like you, your family must be very good-looking."
While chatting, both of them felt that something was not right... Why did they end up here while chatting about the topic?
At this time, Anne Hathaway noticed a hint of drunkenness in Liu Xiu's lazy expression. She raised the bottle and asked, "Drink more?"
Liu Xiu did not refuse, took the bottle, took a sip, and handed it back to Anne Hathaway, who also took a sip.
The topic began to change again, and Anne Hathaway began to talk about her recent difficulties in filming... Liu Xiu just finished one scene and started the second one.
As they drank, the two of them looked at each other more and more.
Starlight, dryness, alcohol, good looks... Under the influence of hormones, the two of them got closer and closer...
At some point, the hands of the two people crawled onto each other's bodies, and their lips met...
Anne Hathaway, who was still drinking better, said with her last shred of reason - "Go to my room!"
Chapter completed!
