Legend of Tomorrow

In the evening, everyone on the Lakers took a special plane back to Los Angeles. They could finally take a break. Next, they would play consecutive home games without having to fly long distances.

Guo Xu wanted to sleep in, but he was woken up by a phone call at 9:30 the next day. The caller ID was Robert Smith, a name that couldn't be more vulgar.

Is there no such person in the team? Could it be one of my Hollywood friends? He told me his real name and I forgot it?

Fake names are not uncommon in the entertainment industry. Most celebrities, or celebrities with generic-sounding names, use a fake name. Some are to protect their private lives, and some are to make them more attractive.

For example, Natalie Portman’s real name is Natalie Hirschler, which looks stranger than it reads; “The Rock”’s real name is Dwayne Douglas Johnson; “Sister Stone” Emma Stone’s real name Call……

Well, this is her real name. Translated in Northeastern dialect, it is Oh Mom, Stone.

Guo Xu picked up the phone and chatted for a while, then remembered that this was one of his fans. In the time loop, he was hit by a car more than 600 times while trying to save a naughty kid. The superhero who survived in the end had the most suitable nickname for him. Probably Mantis.

Robert said in a pleading tone: Jason, I have a request that I hope you can agree to. I want to invite you to lunch.

I guess, your tone of voice is a bit sharp...have you finally given up? Guo Xuhan said.

Robert quickly explained: Don't get me wrong, it's because I told my girlfriend that I know you. She is also a basketball fan and wants to meet you. Is that okay? She is a Chinese student studying abroad.

Just for this? Are you kidding me? Guo Xu couldn't believe it.

How could this be a joke? I just wanted to give her a surprise and prove that I wasn't lying. Although she kept saying that she believed I knew you, she must be doubtful when she can't see anyone.

Okay, I'm going. Can I bring a female companion with me? I'm afraid it will be boring at noon to eat with a straight man like you. Guo Xu couldn't laugh or cry.

Of course, thank you, what is a straight man? Robert asked with a smile.

That's the kind of person you are.

If other fans ask for a dinner treat, Guo Xu will 90% refuse, even if the other fan is a beautiful woman. Robert was an exception. Guo Xu felt that he was a rare good man. People who were willing to sacrifice themselves to save strangers were so rare in this era. Even if his brain was a little abnormal, Guo Xu was willing to give him face.

After a while, a text message from Robert was sent to Guo Xu's mobile phone, telling him where to eat. It turned out to be the famous two-Michelin-star restaurant Urasawa, a Japanese restaurant in Beverly Hills.

Japanese food occupies a high position in the United States. It is known as an extraordinary dining experience and the gorgeous presentation and knife work make many people feel that no matter how much money they spend on such a meal, they do not hesitate to spend more. But Guo Xu never thinks so, and he believes that most Chinese people don’t think so either.

Guo Xu is very knowledgeable about eating. He has been to this restaurant during the time loop. The ingredients are fresh and taste good, but there are hundreds of other restaurants in the world that provide more creative food and better service. More importantly, the price of this urasawa is about 10 times that of a Michelin one-star French restaurant, and may be ranked among the top ten most expensive restaurants in the United States.

If O'Neill invited guests to a restaurant of this level, Guo Xu would go without saying a word. O'Neill would be so rich that he would want to spend money while waiting at the red light on the side of the road. Treating fans is different. What if Robert chose this place because he valued meeting him?

Rich people are stingy and claim to be able to live a good life, while poor people are generous and claim to be fat. Guo Xu does not want to take advantage of such a fat man.

So, he called Robert and suggested a different restaurant.

Robert, can you please eat somewhere else? My girlfriend and I don't like Japanese food very much. And if your girlfriend is Chinese, she probably doesn't like it either. You can ask her.

Ah? I didn't think well. I'm so sorry. How about going to Alexaeak House? Robert asked.

Okay. Guo Xu realized that Robert was no ordinary person. The name of the famous restaurant came right out of his mouth, and he was a regular customer at first glance, so he felt no pressure to consume.

This is a steakhouse that has had a kinglike demeanor from the moment it opened in Los Angeles. With a variety of imported top-quality Wagyu beef, it has easily won the top three spots in the Los Angeles steak industry.

Guo Xu called Megan Fox and drove to the appointment together. Under the guidance of the waiter, he found the reserved seat and met Robert and his girlfriend Wang Jingjing.

The restaurant decoration is very modern, giving people a simple and elegant feeling, but the overall atmosphere is relaxed and lively, and there is no need to pretend to be a gentleman and chat quietly.

Robert asked Guo Xu to take the main order, and Guo Xu expertly ordered top-quality wagyu beef, foie gras, sea urchin chawanmushi, vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce, etc. for 155 US dollars each. He just didn't order wine. After asking, the four of them didn't. drink.

The ice cream was specially ordered for Megan, she liked it the most, and her eyes were bent with laughter after hearing Guo Xu order.

In the time loop, Guo Xu is a frequent customer of this restaurant. He is so familiar with it that he knows what dishes are the most popular.

The two parties introduced themselves, and Guo Xu found that the international student girl looked familiar, and asked curiously: How did you meet?

Wang Jingjing said in relatively fluent English: One day in a coffee shop, a boxer harassed me. Rob helped me, and then we got to know each other.

Fernando Vargas? Did you really go there that day?

Guo Xu immediately thought of the boxing champion he had fought with. Although the opponent was a little drunk that day, it was not easy for him to defeat the boxing champion. It was an experience that could be remembered for a lifetime. Sometimes he regretted not looking for Vargas to pk again after the time loop ended. That was something he wanted to do but didn't take the risk.

As long as he beats Vargas, he will definitely make headlines and become the representative of tough guys in the NBA. Now no matter how closely he defends, fans think he is weak.

Robert smiled and said: Yes, you saved the child at that time and told me that Vargas often molested young women, so I found a reporter to go to the area. I didn't expect to meet him. This matter was reported to the report, you Didn’t you watch the news?”

Uh... I went to an away game and didn't pay attention. You successfully exposed him?

This is a good thing, but Guo Xu feels that people like Vargas might not care much because he already has a very bad reputation.

Wang Jingjing smiled and said: Not only that, Vargas pulled me, but Rob ran over and pushed him away, and even started a confrontation... Then they took action. I thought he was really brave at the time.

Guo Xu and Megan were both shocked and looked at each other.

Guo Xu asked in disbelief: You can also beat the boxing champion?

After all, he has practiced boxing for a long time and is a leader in the amateur world. He should be able to fight in the professional circle. He is no match for Vargas. He only won once by relying on the opponent to underestimate the enemy and get drunk.

The man in front of me looks like an ordinary person with no muscles, how can he fight with the boxing champion?

Robert scratched his head in embarrassment: I just pushed each other a few times with him, and then he punched me. I didn't know anything else. I was in the hospital when I woke up, and it took several days before I was discharged.
