Chapter 11 "Hamburger" Knot

The male protagonist who was supposed to watch the warm-up match between his school and UCLA with his colleagues, for various reasons, sat with a black boy who was a "ticket dealer" and watched the entire game.

Because of their absolute confidence in their home team, the two reached a "20 points" agreement.

However, neither of them won.

UCLA beat UCB by just 20 points.

However, maybe it was exciting to watch, after the game, the hero was planning to leave the arena~~
"Burger King~?! It's not bad, I haven't had it for a long time~~ And I always feel that there is a kind of fate with that buddy~~"

Standing at the exit next to the ticket gate, the hero thought to himself.

In this way, the male protagonist stayed at the exit, waiting for the black brother.

Afterwards, the black brother was also polite, and the two finally came to the burger restaurant.

Through the self-introduction of the two, we know that our hero is a Chinese teacher from UCB. He can teach in a world-class prestigious university like the University of California, Berkeley. It can be seen that the hero has a lot of academic attainments.

In contrast, the work of the honest and honest black brother is not so "honest".

The "ticket dealers" who wander around the major competition sites and activities are the main source of experience of the black brother.

Moreover, the black brother has the same name as the current Golden State Warriors guard "bearded": Baron Davis.

It's a pity that the male protagonist is really a "fake fan", and he doesn't know this at all.

"You can call me Byron, or BD (the acronym for Baron.Davis)~"

The black boy said, and quickly opened the outer package of the burger, looking very eager.

Although he is a ticket dealer, the male protagonist didn't belittle or anything because of this, and the chat was very speculative.

"Hmm~~, I haven't eaten this burger for a long time, and it tastes pretty good~!"

The male protagonist savored it carefully, as if he was filming an advertisement, the feeling of the fragrance of lips and tongue lingering in his mind, and said.

In contrast, the black brother does not have such a good "eating appearance".

I can't wait to eat a hamburger in one bite, and I can't wait to stuff the whole box of French fries into my mouth, as if I haven't had a full meal for a long time.

"Slow down, buddy, don't choke~!! Drink some~~"

"Cough cough~!! Cough cough~!!"

The male protagonist looked at the black brother and laughed halfway through the conversation, but he choked himself because he was swallowing and talking at the same time.

"Haha, buddy, can you do it? In China, I should have been taught not to talk when I was a child~!"

The black boy said with a mocking tone, he also sucked on the straw and drank the drink in order to prevent hiccups from eating too fast.

"Huh~~, it's much better~"

The male protagonist also drank a few sips of drinks, smoothed the food down his throat, and sighed.

"Actually~, I've always been curious about one thing, that is, where do your tickets come from~?!"

The male lead asked.

The male protagonist's sudden question made the black brother stop "crazy eating mode" instantly.

His expression also became serious.

Putting down the fried chicken wings in his hand, he took another sip, swallowed the food in his mouth, raised his head, and looked at the male lead with a serious expression.

"Dude, you bought me a hamburger, I really appreciate you, but~!! You ask such a question, isn't it a bit rude~?!"

The black boy said in a very low tone.

Hearing these words, the hero is also a little nervous~~
"Whoosh~~"

The male protagonist swallowed, but said nothing.

"Forget it, for a half-nerd like you, you don't understand our business at all, and you don't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes at all~~"

The black brother seemed not to care about it any more, and picked up the fried chicken wings as he spoke.

"Sorry~~, I'm really sorry, I just said it casually, there is no other meaning, I know this is also your "commercial secret", I was rude~~"

Seeing this, the hero quickly apologized.

"It's okay, I'm just messing around, who isn't~~"

The little black brother seemed not to care anymore. After eating the chicken wings, he wiped his hands with a napkin and said.

"You have been in America for a while~!"

The black brother seemed to have eaten enough, or maybe he ate too fast. When he was done, he straightened up, sipped his drink, and asked.

"Well, yes, after finishing university in China, I came here to study abroad, that is, I have been here at UCB, and then I took some degrees, and then I was going to return to China to develop, but it happened that my tutor helped me to leave my job. , At that time, I thought that there might not be such a good opportunity in the future, so I chose to stay, first I worked as a tutor assistant for a year, and after passing the teacher certificate, I became a Chinese teacher~~”

The man replied.

"This is the legendary Xueba~~"

The black boy nodded, said, picked up a French fries, dipped it in ketchup, and put it in his mouth.

"Hey~~ Actually, it's been a long time, and sometimes I miss my hometown, but when I get busy with work, I don't have time to take care of so much~~"

The male protagonist said with a sigh.

Looking at the charming way of shaking the head of the male protagonist, I must have recalled every scene, every thing, every person, and every event in my hometown in my mind, and those bits and pieces are the surviving memories of my hometown.

"The United States is like this. It attracts people from all over the world every year. They want to stay here, but they miss their hometown and live in contradictions. Sometimes, they may not see hope~~"

The little black brother also suddenly became lyrical, and as he spoke, tears filled his eyes.

Perhaps for a person at the bottom of society like the black brother, he can have such a feeling through personal experience.

The male protagonist looked at the black brother, smiled faintly, felt his difficulty, and recalled his past.

In this busy world, two people who have not known each other for a long time, sit together and have a chat. When you find that you have the same feelings, you will find that you are not alone in this city.

There are many people who work silently and forge ahead in this city.

Perhaps this is why the hero wants to find a feeling. If he wants to feel the warmth of this strange city, having a good conversation with a stranger is the best way.

"Nice to meet you, BD~!!"

The male lead stretched out his hand again, showing a healing smile.Said.

"Don't try to bribe me with a meal of Burger King~~"

The black brother said in a half-joking tone, and stretched out his hand.

"Haha, let's eat twice~!"

"Haha~!!"

The male protagonist laughed and replied, and the black brother also laughed.

If the first handshake between the two was a formal acquaintance, then this time, after just a few words of conversation, through this handshake, the two parties officially regarded each other as friends.

Although there is no grand ceremony, the "sworn brotherhood" has been completed.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's talk~~~Let's talk~~. Let's talk about basketball~!!"

The male protagonist smiled in relief and continued.

The black brother here seems to have "slowed down", opened the outer package of another burger, and started to eat.

The black brother didn't answer directly, but quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.

"Wait until I'm full, dude~!"

The black boy said while still chewing.

"In the United States, they should have been educated when they were children. You can't talk when you eat~!! Haha~!!"

"Haha, that's right, buddy~~"
