The world of basketball

Chapter 39 Christmas
In the United States, Christmas is like the Chinese New Year. It is a time for the whole family to get together.

Mu Xiaobei, who is far away in a foreign land, has only Carlin as a relative. On this day, Mu Xiaobei did not train, but went shopping, eating and playing games with Carlin.

Normally, Mu Xiaobei would train during the day, and at night he would either play a game or be with his teammates. Even so, Mu Xiaobei would still meet Karlin often, and Karlin would often accompany Mu Xiaobei to away games, and Go to watch Mu Xiaobei's game.

After all, she is still Mu Xiaobei's manager.

When a person wanders alone in a foreign land with no relatives, especially in this kind of festival, you can see couples cuddling together everywhere on the road, and a family of three holding hands.

Mu Xiaobei couldn't imagine what he would do in this place without Carlin.

Thousands of lights were lit, and snowflakes were flying, melting in the air by the heat brought by the flow of people.

Mu Xiaobei hugged Carlin tightly, Carlin felt Mu Xiaobei's strength, and also felt Mu Xiaobei's thoughts, she smiled sweetly, and her thoughts returned to when she was in China.

At that time, she was still very young, and the seemingly glamorous broker's family was not harmonious.

The marriage of her father and mother was on the verge of breaking, and her mother brought the two of them to this strange east.Her mother was in love again, on Christmas Day.

She watched her drunken mother being carried into the car, she didn't know what to do, she hid far away, and then followed the car's footprints.

But the car was going so fast that her little head couldn't remember the roads, so she lost track.

She was sitting on a rock by the side of the road. The snow was heavy that year. In fact, the snow in BJ has always been heavy. She wore a snow-white down jacket and put on a hat to wrap her little head tightly.

The snow under the street lamp was bright yellow, and she was fascinated by the pile of snow. At this time, Carlin felt a kind of fear of being abandoned.

In this strange place, is it possible that mother can no longer find herself?
Carlin felt a little regretful. She felt that she should not leave, but should sit there and wait. Little Carlin was already very experienced in this kind of thing. When she was in the United States, her mother was often carried into the car by someone drunk. Waiting in place, my mother can always find me the next morning.

But in this strange country, she has no relatives, and she doesn't even know the language and characters of this country. Her hair and skin color are also incompatible with the people of this country.

She doesn't know if her mother can find her, but it seems impossible tonight. She doesn't know where else she can go. Fortunately, when she goes out tonight, she wears a lot of clothes. Maybe she can survive the night by the street lamp .

The 12-year-old Karlin has a maturity beyond this age group. She tightly sealed the fear and loss in her heart and sealed it up.

Today is Christmas.

However, Carlin looked at the vehicles coming and going. In China today, Christmas is only a festival for students to give each other peace fruits.

Carlin patted the snowflakes on her body from time to time, and then realized that she was sitting at the gate of the school, watching the passers-by with interest.

Well, she is a person who is very good at self-regulation. She feels that as long as she maintains a positive attitude, she will stay away from herself when she is unhappy.

"crunch--crunch--"

Oncoming was a dilapidated bicycle. Because the snowy road was a bit slippery, the man did not ride it up but pushed it underneath.

The one pushing the cart was a boy, about the same age as me.

The boy was very tall, very tall, and dressed very thinly, but his whole body was still smelling white, as if he had just finished exercising.

A cotton coat was stacked in a basket, with a few apples in a red plastic bag on top, and the boy swayed along the somewhat depressed asphalt road.

Try not to travel by car in snowy days, but it doesn't seem to be called a rule that people obey at the time.

A van braked but failed to stop, and slid straight in the direction of Mu Xiaobei and Carlin.

The boy threw away the bicycle and ran towards Carlin, who was a bit confused. He ran to the green belt, grabbed Carlin's clothes, and dragged her back.

The van showed no tendency to stop, and it didn't stop until it bumped into the place where Carlin was just sitting.

The driver was an uncle, and he ran down quickly to see that the two were not injured, and then apologized and towed the car away. Although Karlin could not understand the uncle's words, he could see the sincerity of the uncle's apology.

The boy's English is very poor, and when the girl says three grams of oil, the boy can only say OK.

Then the boy dragged the bicycle over, picked up the clothes and apples that fell on the ground, and put them back into the basket of the bicycle. Then, the boy untied the plastic bag again and took out a less ugly one. Apple, handed to the girl.

"Merry Christmas!" The boy expressed his blessing to the girl with the unique chenglish of this country: "In China, we like eat apples in Christmas."

The girl laughed when she heard the boy's grammatically incorrect English, took the boy's apple, and took a bite without washing it.

The boy smiled and pushed the cart away.

With this apple, tonight doesn't seem to be so difficult.

The miraculous mother found herself the next day, and said again and again: "I'm sorry, baby, you haven't been frozen."

Soon her father also came to China, and her parents got divorced. After that, Carlin lived in China for six years. During this period, she learned Chinese and knew that the boy’s school was a school famous for basketball. junior high school.

At that time, there was no sports school, but the school found that the seedlings who were not good at study but good at sports would always choose another more difficult path for their children, not to mention boys with backgrounds.

The girl fell in love with basketball, and his father did not object. As a big-name agent in Hollywood, he decided to train his children to become excellent agents in various fields.

The NBA is a very large vanity fair, and it is developing rapidly. In the future, it will become a supermarket that is not inferior to Hollywood.

After graduating from high school, the boy participated in the CBA Liaoning trial training, and signed the Bengang team very easily. No one noticed that there was a white girl who would always appear in the audience of the boy's games.

There has never been love for no reason in the world. As an ESPN editor, Carlene also has her unfinished bachelor's degree in finance at Harvard University, which has been deferred for two years, and her family is rich.

Why would this girl with good looks, ability, and more importantly, quality and connotation rush to become Mu Xiaobei's manager?Why would Mu Xiaobei live in her own home?

She has known Mu Xiaobei before, she is the person who knows Mu Xiaobei best besides Yao Ming and Mu Xiaobei, and she may know Mu Xiaobei better than Yao Ming.

She knew that Mu Xiaobei was a shy but kind boy. He grew up in the orphanage and would often return to the orphanage to accompany the children.

It seems that this big man can no longer remember the white girl in the snowy day, Carlin thought while clutching Mu Xiaobei's big hand, but these are not important.

What matters is that right now they are together and they love each other deeply.

that's enough.

Shopping is very tiring, well, to be precise, men are very tired.

But Mu Xiaobei was very excited. He and Carlin were cutting the turkey in the kitchen, and the bread in the oven was ready to be baked. He liked to eat very much. In the eyes of Chinese people, eating with family members on important festivals is reunion.

This is the happiest thing.
