I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 105
The Lakers' next goal is the Houston Rockets, but the game will be played on the next night.

After the team hurriedly bid farewell to Orlando, they flew to Houston overnight so that they could rest better.

On the "001-407-65*****" plane, Chu Xiao hesitated with a string of numbers before throwing them into the trash can next to him.

Fiona didn't know who she got through, and she actually stuffed her personal phone into his locker. She is indeed a stunner, her beauty and figure are the best, especially the one lying naked under the dim light The bed left him with such a huge psychological shock that he still couldn't calm down for a long time after returning to the hotel. He even regretted leaving like that without doing anything. After thinking over and over like this, he couldn't think of Howard. According to Howard's misunderstanding of him, it is probably Howard's mastermind, and Du Hong planned and executed it.

"This matter can't be settled so easily." From this, Chu Xiao also recalled the incident of being arrested and imprisoned for no reason. He was imprisoned for no reason.At that time, because he had just gained a firm foothold in Los Angeles, he felt that one thing is worse than one thing less. He was naturally unwilling to make things difficult for those working at the grassroots level. He knew that it was easy for a person to lose his job, but it was difficult to find another one. Let it go.

Unexpectedly, less than a month has passed since this incident, and I almost suffered a bigger loss in Orlando, and even ruined my bright future. If I forget it easily again, when will the unhappiness accumulated in my heart be eliminated.

At this point, Chu Xiao made up his mind to fight the monsters and the others, but he also knew that this matter could not be rushed, and he had no handle against the other party. Let the team fall apart.

He forcibly suppressed the contempt and displeasure in his heart for the monster who was laughing and joking with his teammates not far away, and put his thoughts back on Fiona. With Tracy, it is impossible to rashly contact such an unknown master.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiao looked back, and found that Tracy just raised her head to look this way, and the two gave each other a sweet smile.

The plane is divided into areas, and the players all sit in the front, where the seats are more spacious, food and other items are abundant, and the service is more thoughtful and meticulous. For example, it is like the VIP cabin in the plane.The team staff all sit in the back, which is the so-called economy class. If there is no need in front, they will stay behind so as not to disturb the players' rest.

Therefore, this couple who are secretly in love has no chance to be alone on the plane, but Chu Xiao likes to turn her head inadvertently, glance over from other places, and after falling on Tracy's face, she smiles at her when others are not paying attention , she smiled sweetly and occasionally winked on purpose, which made the two of them feel even sweeter.

While Chu Xiao was still enjoying this sweetness, a phone call came in suddenly. When he looked down, it was Lin Shuhao.

After the last Battle of the Lake of Fire, Lin Shuhao hurriedly left Los Angeles with the team. The two had no chance to get together, so Lin Shuhao asked for Chu Xiao's number through someone else, and then talked with him on the phone for more than an hour, and finally agreed on this After arriving in Houston for the first time, we must take him for a walk.

"Is the game over on your side? Have you started yet?" Lin Shuhao asked a little loudly.

"It's over a long time ago. I'm on the plane now and I'm expected to arrive in 2 hours." Chu Xiao looked at his watch and said.

"That's coming soon. I'll wait for you. When the evening arrives, we will go to the nightclub together." Lin Shuhao said expectantly.

"Ah, I guess it won't be until eleven or twelve o'clock, so don't wait."

"It's only lively when you go to nightclubs at eleven or twelve o'clock!"

"Forget it, it's too late, and I'm a little tired just after the game, or go out early tomorrow morning?" Chu Xiao suggested.

Lin Shuhao was silent for a while and said, "Alright, let's go to bed early tonight and pick you up tomorrow morning!"

"Ok, see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"

After hanging up the phone, Chu Xiao looked back at his girlfriend and found that she was leaning on the back of the chair and started to doze off, so she turned around and took a nap in peace.

The city of Houston is the capital of Harris County (larger than a city in the US counties), the largest city in Texas, and the fourth largest city in the United States, ranking after New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.

The city is located in the northern part of the Mexico Plain in southeastern Texas, only 80 kilometers away from the Gulf of Mexico. Because it is located in the open coastal plain, with many rivers and lakes, and a warm and humid climate, it has attracted a population of 195 million to live here.

When the Lakers arrived in Houston by plane, it was already 11:45 in the evening. Although it was close to the night, the city was full of tall buildings and brightly lit. From a distance, the lights looked like stars, like crystal diamonds inlaid in the sky. In the dark, it is very beautiful.

Especially before entering the city center from the airport, you will pass through a 40-kilometer-long canal. The lights on the giant ship are bright at night, which is very spectacular. It is said that you will also see the scene of thousands of sails driving straight in during the day.

The home court of the Rockets is the Toyota Center Arena, which is also sponsored by Toyota, so it is named after its company name.

The arena is an oval building with light pink columns, brown-red walls, and a silver-white dome, which looks like a huge pot lid from a distance.

Chu Xiao and the others did not live near the arena this time, but a five-star hotel seven or eight kilometers away.Because it is surrounded by row upon row of tall office buildings, but the hotel specifications are average, which does not meet the Lakers' occupancy requirements.

It was already 0:30 a.m. on the second day when they arrived at the hotel. The away game and the exhaustion of the journey, these players fell asleep after being assigned to the room.

Chu Xiao was full of energy, and sneaked into Tracy's room while everyone else was asleep, and the two of them made out again. When they parted, he asked his girlfriend for advice, "Tomorrow Lin Shuhao will bring you I'm walking around, do you want to come with me?"

"I have a lot of work to do, so I won't go, you guys have fun." Trish tapped his lips, and sent her boyfriend out of the room with a smile.

Since she returned to the team to take charge of public relations for the time being, she has indeed been busy a lot, and she is often unable to get away. This is not to say that she has fallen into an official obsession, but that women in the United States like to pursue independence, even if their own Boyfriends are successful in their careers, and they don’t need them to work hard at all. They still hope to have their own achievements. This is related to the so-called freedom and equality that Americans have always advocated, and this is precisely reflected in the concept of love.

Because they often go through four stages from dating to marriage, and the development of ambiguity is very intricate. During this period, both people are free. If they feel that their concepts and thoughts are out of sync midway, the relationship will end at any time.

Chu Xiao didn’t understand this at first, and it wasn’t until she lived with Tracy that she gradually realized the difference in love culture between China and the United States, so every time she asked for her opinion, no matter what the answer was, she didn’t force it, and the two of them got along better because of this. Comfortable.

Let’s briefly talk about these four stages. The first is Hang out, which is the primary temptation. At this stage, two people can do anything, even sex, but there will be no promises between them. This is different from domestic boys. It’s different to use text messages to pursue for several months. Americans don’t have a single goal at this stage. They can date two people or four people. Even if he has a girlfriend, he can date other people because he wants to be in this period. Time to play with you.

The second stage is Dating, that is, real dating.This kind of communication is based on equality, there is no conflict of interest, and it is a fairly pure emotional communication.Since equality means respecting the other party's space, if the other party feels that his personal space has been violated at this stage, he will immediately propose a breakup, and you must also respect his wishes.

The third stage is live together, living together.If two people have a happy relationship without too much pressure, they will choose to live together, and it usually lasts for a long time.However, this still does not indicate that the two are about to get married.During the cohabitation process, the two people will deeply exchange ideas and thoughts on marriage and family. If they are not synchronized, the relationship will be terminated.

The last is Mariage, getting married.

In fact, Chu Xiao and Tracy were only in the first stage at the beginning, that is, the primary temptation. It was Dai Daier's appearance that made them skip the second stage and go directly to the third stage of cohabitation, which meant that they had to respect The space and time of the other party cannot be forced or interfered, otherwise their relationship can be terminated at any time, even if they already have sex.

Because Americans are open to "sex", but very conservative on "relationship".

I remember that before coming to the United States, Chu Xiao once heard such a story from a friend. A Chinese boy came to the United States to study for the first time, and met an American girl he liked in an accidental bar party. They communicated with each other and developed a good impression. And then there was sex.

The next day, the boy asked the girl, "You should be my girlfriend now?"

The girl replied, "No, although I love being with you, it's too soon to be a boyfriend and girlfriend. I'm not ready yet. Let's keep in touch first."

Later, they confirmed their relationship after many dates.

The girl later said to the boy, "You surprised me at the time. You said that I was your girlfriend so early. It was too casual. It was so easy to identify someone."

The boy was stunned, not sure who was doing it casually.

From this point of view, Tracy is really not very attached to Chu Xiao, on the contrary, she will give him more space to be alone, and she doesn't even mind him contacting different people, even women, as long as she doesn't bring her home.
