ace marshal

Chapter 33

After receiving the interview permission from UCLA, Byron and Lan Shengli set off soon.

"Where are we going~?!"

Byron sat in the co-pilot and navigated for Lan Shengli. Lan Shengli started to question while driving.

"A basketball training school, don't be nervous, it won't be difficult~!"

Byron explained.

"Think about the feeling when you went to kindergarten for the first time, it should be similar to now~!!"

Byron continued to tease.

"Unfortunately, I haven't been to kindergarten~~"

Lan Shengli also joked.

Although Byron did not disclose too much, this school does have a great background. Its founder and teacher is a former NBA player, five championship winners, and Michael Jordan's backcourt partner-Ron Harper.

Although Harper has always shown himself as a tough guy on the court, but now he is very patient and persuasive when teaching Lan Shengli the basic knowledge of basketball.

At the end of the day's explanation, Lan Shengli basically learned all the rules of the basketball game. Since Lan Shengli is a teacher, I believe he should memorize them all.

After teaching, Lan Shengli invited Harper and Byron to a Chinese restaurant near the school.

The square mahogany round table, thin benches, festive lanterns hanging everywhere, the retro decoration style of red bricks and green tiles, coupled with the chopsticks on the dining table, and the bustling crowd, the three of them seem to have come to a domestic restaurant in an instant .

"Brother, you know that I seldom eat Chinese food. Not only does the name of this menu sound weird, but it also looks weird~!"

Harper touched his bald head, looked at the menu, and said with a tangled face.

"Bru, hurry up and order food, we don't know much about Chinese food at all, just order some and at least let us know what ingredients are made~!"

Byron looked a little hungry.

"Also, don't order anything spicy~!"

Harper added.

"Oh~, what did you think just now, you actually came to eat Chinese food, it's cheap for this kid~~"

Byron said inwardly.

"Okay, then I'll order a few~~"

Lan Shengli took the menu and said.

Soon, several western-looking dishes were brought to the dinner table.

Blueberry yam, deep-fried small river prawns, pineapple sweet and sour meat, etc., these should be dishes that are more suitable for Western tastes.

Although Byron and Harper looked at the few dishes with a slightly surprised expression, they might also be hungry, so they didn't care about them, and started to eat.

However, both of them still use knives and forks, and there is still "a long way to go" if they want to learn to use chopsticks.

"By the way, what are your plans for tomorrow~!?"

Harper seemed to have almost finished eating, put down his knife and fork, and asked about Byron.

"I didn't think about it, let's continue to learn about basketball, I don't know what to do~~"

Byron said casually.

"How about that? Since it's an interview at UCLA, you have to prepare well. I've already told him about the basic rules and knowledge of basketball today. How about it? I have a basketball game here tomorrow afternoon. Come over here. Let's take a look, analyze the game and I'll listen to it, and see if it's as amazing as you said, it can be regarded as a special training for actual combat~!!"

said Harper, wiping his mouth with a napkin.

"Tomorrow~!? So suddenly~!?"

Lan Shengli said in surprise.

"What game~!?"

Byron also asked questions.

"Oh, it's the children who learn basketball here, and the teams from other training schools, it's a teaching competition~~"

Harper explained.

"Good opportunity, Bruce, show off your insight and on-the-spot analysis skills tomorrow. Maybe Coach Harper will write you a letter of recommendation. Take the letter of recommendation and go to UCLA for an interview. Your chance It's even bigger~!!"

Byron said excitedly.

"I~~, can I do it~!?"

Lan Shengli began to feel unconfident again.

"Dude~!! Just like when we watched the game that day, just watch the game carefully and analyze it carefully, don't think about other things~!!"

Seeing Lan Shengli like this, Byron was very anxious.

"Okay, I'll try~~"

Lan Shengli said in a slightly nervous tone.

Harper didn't say anything, maybe Harper was also looking forward to Lan Shengli's performance when the time came, after all, Byron praised Lan Shengli before.

"Thank you for your hospitality, see you at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon~!!"

The three of them finished eating and walked to the restaurant, Harper said.

"Okay, thank you Coach Harper for your help this day, thank you very much~!"

Lan Shengli still said humbly.

A few people didn't say anything more, and soon went back to their respective homes.

"Tomorrow is Wednesday, and the sick leave ends the day after tomorrow. If I don't apply for an extended leave, I won't be able to attend the interview on Friday. Huh~~ What a trouble~~ Should I do this~~"

Back home, lying on the bed in the dark bedroom, Lan Shengli opened his eyes, tilted his head, looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and muttered to himself.

Perhaps this is why Lan Shengli hesitated when he was invited by Harper~~
Maybe it was because he was too tired this day, and Lan Shengli soon fell asleep.

"Beep~!!"

"Beep~!!"

Early in the morning, Byron rang the doorbell of Lan Shengli's house.

"You~~, what's going on with you~!?"

Lan Shengli still had his toothbrush in his mouth, so he opened the door and asked Byron in sportswear before him.

"Morning jogging, today's task is very difficult, so first of all, of course, it is necessary to prepare well, fully storing physical energy is the key~!!"

Byron bared his white teeth and said with a smile.

"Reserve physical energy, shouldn't it be a good rest~~"

Lan Shengli said helplessly.

In this way, Lan Shengli was dragged by Byron and forced to run for more than half an hour in the morning.

"Don't write like this on your resume~~"

"Don't forget to paste the photo~!!"

In the morning, the two were preparing interview materials at home, and Byron played some basketball teaching videos for Lan Shengli~~
"Good shot~!"

"Pretty~!"

Afterwards, the two watched last night's NBA game again. While watching, Byron analyzed it for Lan Shengli.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the two set off on time and went to Harper's training school.

"Wow~!! So many people~!!"

Walking into the arena on the first floor, Lan Shengli looked at the crowd on the second and third floors around the court and sighed.

"Of course, this is the United States, the kingdom of basketball~!!, no matter what age level the basketball game is, it will be very popular, just get used to it~!"

Byron didn't seem surprised, he looked around as he talked, as if looking for the possibility of finding someone he knew~~
"You two are really on time, take your seats, the game will start soon~~"

Harper walked over at this time and greeted the two of them.

"The bench seat~!? Haha, the VIP seat~!!"

Byron looked at the two empty seats where Harper pointed and sighed.

"Huh~!? That~~, that's not~~"
