After returning to the hotel, Chen Jie seemed to have lost his soul. He didn't even eat and just lay on the bed.
Beyoncé was worried and ordered a fast food from the housekeeping department to be delivered to him. After knocking on the door, it was Ross who opened the door.
Beyonce's eyes were filled with worry: "How's it going?"
Ross curled his lips and said, "It's still the same. I don't know what evil has taken hold of me."
Beyoncé nodded, pointed to the thing in her hand and said, "Bring him some food."
Ross said: "Well, come in."
Rose dodged away, and Beyoncé saw Chen Jie lying on the bed at a glance. This man who was still alive and kicking this morning seemed to have had all his energy sucked away in an instant. After coming out of Madison, this man became...
Listless.
Why?
Beyoncé thought of what Chen Jie said in Madison. Could it be related to senior Jay Williams?
She shook her head, knowing that she couldn't get the result by thinking alone. She walked over and pushed Chen Jie's body, and Beyoncé said softly: "Eat something!"
"Thank you, I'm not hungry!" Chen Jie's muffled voice came from under the pillow without even turning his head.
Beyoncé was helpless and rolled her eyes: "We have eaten two meals since morning, and you only had one meal and didn't eat lunch. How can you not be hungry?"
"Then leave it, I'll eat it when I'm hungry later." Chen Jie was really worried and couldn't eat, but he couldn't let down Beyoncé's kindness, so he had no choice but to say this.
Unexpectedly, Beyoncé refused to give up: "You hurry up and eat it in front of me, or I won't leave!"
ah??!
As soon as she said this, Chen Jie and Ross were surprised at the same time.
This sentence, this sentence, seems to be a bit beyond the scope of friends.
It's okay to care about your friends, but you don't have to care to this extent? For those who don't know, you must think Beyoncé is Chen Jie's girlfriend or mother.
There's something fishy about it.
Ross was keenly aware of this, and without squinting, he suddenly found a remote control next to him. Ross pressed the switch without any trouble, and the TV turned on.
"The latest news from our station..."
These words came through the TV announcer. Chen Jie didn't pay attention to what Beyoncé said just now, and jumped up from the bed.
Beyoncé, who was startled by her, quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
Chen Jie waved his hands, stood on the bed, and stared at the TV.
Seeing him like this, Rose and Beyoncé also cast their eyes over curiously.
"Jay Williams, the second overall pick in the NBA draft who was just selected by Chicago with the second overall pick, was involved in a car accident on the streets of New York in the afternoon and died after being rescued by the hospital..."
After hearing these words, Chen Jie slumped down on the bed.
His mind was blank!
He no longer had the intention to watch or listen to the next sounds and images on the TV.
Beyoncé was also extremely shocked and ignored Chen Jie. Incredulously, she went to watch TV again and found that the subtitles below clearly stated the name of the player who died - Jay Williams.
That's right, it's her senior, her idol in college. That genius from Duke University!
Beyoncé's mood changed from surprise to sadness. How could this happen? How could this happen? Beyoncé murmured at the corner of her mouth.
Rose was the only one who was still in a calm mood. Although he was sad and surprised, he could still think of what Chen Jie said today at Madison Garden.
At that time, I didn't know why this man said such an inexplicable thing.
Now it seems that he already knew that there would be a car accident?
Who is he? Can he predict the future?
Thinking that the draft picks of several players he had guessed were very correct, Rose became more and more convinced of this idea, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Chen Jie had changed.
Oriental.
How can it be so mysterious?
No one could imagine that Chen Jie would be a person who traveled back in time from 2013, and no one would dare to be so whimsical.
Knowing the future, Ross can only give this explanation.
As for why he could predict the future, Ross could only say that maybe there are too many incredible things in the mysterious East.
At this moment, he was full of admiration and awe for Chen Jie.
"Did you know this a long time ago?" Beyoncé, who was overwhelmed with grief for the first moment, came back to her senses. Naturally, she also thought of the question that Rose had just thought of. She looked at Chen Jie in surprise when she asked this question.
Chen Jie felt a little hopeless at this moment and didn't want to hide it anymore. He nodded and was about to say something.
Beyoncé suddenly interrupted him and said: "Is this the so-called I Ching and Zhouyi fortune-telling in the East? Chen, did you go to Madison just to prevent this tragedy from happening?"
Chen Jie was stunned.
He originally wanted to say that he had a dream in which he knew everything about the next ten years, but he didn't expect Beyoncé to be so smart as to give such an explanation.
Chen Jie thought for a moment and immediately felt that this explanation was much better than his own. So he nodded.
Beyoncé had tears in her eyes: "Chen, you are really a good person!"
In her heart, Chen Jie was able to go through all the troubles to come to New York and sneak into Madison for someone who had nothing to do with him. Even if he was taken out by security guards, he did not complain. This kind of behavior is really not just what a good person can do.
It's descriptive.
At this moment, she had a new understanding of Chen Jie's character.
Naturally, Chen Jie didn't know that he had not changed his destiny, but by some strange combination of circumstances, he had a beautiful woman praise him so much.
Rubbing his nose, he felt a little guilty.
He knew clearly that he wanted to save Jay Williams, but more importantly, he wanted to use him as a test subject to see if he could change the future. At the moment when he knew that he could not change, Chen Jie felt so sad.
Not Jay Williams, but Tracy McGrady.
But I didn’t expect Beyoncé to think of herself so much.
This made Chen Jie, who had always been thick-skinned, very embarrassed.
"Chen, I'm in a bad mood, can you go for a walk with me?" Beyoncé begged.
Chen Jie nodded and said, "I just want to relax." Looking at Ross, Chen Jie then said, "You go too!"
After saying this, there was a look of regret and loss in Beyoncé's eyes.
Chen Jie did not see all this.
The three of them came to the streets of New York again, it was already after six o'clock in the afternoon.
Although the days are long in summer, the sun is beginning to set.
The setting sun bids its final farewell on the horizon.
Beyoncé Rose had been silent, and suddenly heard bursts of noise.
Following the sound, I saw an outdoor basketball court where a dozen young people were playing ball.
The banging of basketballs and the shouts of players can be heard all the time.
Chen Jie suddenly felt as if he had returned to the basketball court at his previous school. The weather in this season seemed a bit suitable for memories.
Rose's eyes were shining and he was a little eager to try.
Beyoncé suddenly said: "Chen, can you play? Can you let me see you play?"
The beauty invited her, but she was naturally disrespectful. Although Rose next to him was extremely powerful, Chen Jie thought that he would only be tortured, but he still nodded and agreed.
Taking off their coats, Chen Jie and Ross walked into the venue.
The first basketball game after time travel started like this.
