Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 18

"I wonder if she has a boyfriend?"

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Anthony's mind, but he immediately threw that thought away. He really had too much hormones...

Soon, Su Xi came out of the kitchen, pouted with an aggrieved look.

"What's wrong?" Anthony stopped holding the food and asked with concern.

"The hospital let me go there now, there is an emergency room." Su Xi said helplessly.

"But you haven't finished your meal yet!" Anthony said in surprise.

"I have no choice but to go out and buy a piece of bread." Su Xi walked upstairs before going upstairs, "Remember to wash the dishes for me after you finish eating. Put it in the fridge when you're done eating."

After speaking, she hurried upstairs.

Anthony didn't say anything else. After all, he can't interfere with other people's lives. Now that he eats the dishes cooked by others, he can only see if he can buy some delicious food when he goes out later. This can be regarded as repaying others for his kindness. up.

Thinking of this, he simply let go of his psychological burden, and started eating voraciously. If he hadn't touched Chinese food in the past half a month, eating just those steak and burgers was not a taste at all.

after awhile.

"Dengdeng..."

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, Anthony looked back, his mouth was frozen there while he was eating vegetables,

Su Xi, who had changed into a nurse's attire, exudes a different flavor, a flavor that makes people's hearts throb.

Feeling the longing in Anthony's eyes, Su Xi blushed, said "I'm leaving" and quickly left the room.

"He doesn't think I'm a pervert..."

Anthony didn't continue to eat the food in his mouth until Su Xi's back disappeared from his eyes.

After Anthony finished his meal, he was about to liquidate all the cooked dishes, and Su Xi's dishes were all in his stomach.

After eating enough, he burped and washed off the tableware, took his key and bank card and left the room.

The night scene in the United States is different from that in China. The night scene in China gives people a feeling of feasting and debauchery, but the night scene in the United States gives people a feeling of starry stars, without the crowded feeling of China. , there will be a different sense of tranquility.

Anthony walked alone on the streets of Denver, breathing the fresh air, and felt unspeakably comfortable. It was the first time he had walked like this. In the hotel before, Andrews was worried about letting him go out like this alone.

Along a row of street lights, Anthony walked forward for a while, and soon reached a relatively bustling road section, and the number of pedestrians on the roadside gradually increased.

When Anthony was walking, he kept observing whether there was anything delicious on the side of the road. As he walked, he suddenly heard a slightly excited shout.

"Hey Mello, is that you?"

As soon as Anthony turned his head, he saw a young Caucasian man holding a newspaper in his hand, looking at him excitedly.

"Melo, it's really Melo!"

The American young man looked down at the newspaper, then looked up at Anthony. After confirming that it was him, he roared excitedly, and the young people around him, both men and women, rushed forward in a swarm.

"Melo, we are all your fans, you are too good, you beat those villains in Phoenix by yourself yesterday!..."

"Especially that guy named Stoudemire. I don't like him the most. What kind of bully is he? Didn't he get humiliated by Melo yesterday!..."

"Melo is the savior of our team! We love you!  …"

A group of people surrounded Anthony, praising and taking pictures, which made Anthony very uncomfortable. In the end, they finally sent them away, and more than half an hour passed before they knew it.

Anthony straightened his clothes. He regretted that he didn't wear a hat when he went out, or he didn't realize that he was a celebrity, and he didn't understand some common sense.

Anthony went all the way, and from time to time, he would meet some fans, which made him look for things, and took a group photo. When he finally bought a concave cake at a "Grandpa Cheese" cake shop, he looked at the time. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

This time he took the cake and ran quickly, and the fans who saw him on the side of the road were all ignored by him.

After a while, when he returned to the villa, Anthony looked up and saw the lights in the villa lit up. It seemed that Su Xi had already returned.

Anthony suddenly felt inexplicably lost. Could it be that Su Xi has already eaten?
With trepidation, Anthony used the key to open the door outside the fence, and then locked it. Then when he pushed the door in front of the villa, he smelled a scent of vegetables as soon as the door was opened.

He immediately realized that Su Xi was cooking again.

"Su Xi, I'm back."

As soon as Anthony put the concave cake on the table, he raised his legs and shouted to the kitchen.

"Cough cough..."

At this moment, there was a violent coughing sound from the kitchen.

When Anthony heard the sound, he quickly stood up from his chair and walked quickly to the kitchen. As soon as he entered, he smelled a pungent spicy smell, and couldn't help but sneezed several times.

"Melo, is that you?"

A slightly crying voice sounded weakly.

It took Anthony a while to get used to it. He squinted his eyes and saw Su Xi standing there with water streaming down his eyes, not knowing what happened.

At this moment, he didn't care about whether men and women could accept kisses or not, so he stepped forward to pick her up and walked to the living room.

"fire Fire!……"

Feeling being hugged, Su Xi couldn't help shouting urgently.

Anthony looked back and saw that the gas fire in the kitchen hadn't been turned off. He quickly carried Su Xi to the sofa outside, then rushed to the kitchen without stopping, turned off the gas, and then quickly ran to the living room.

Su Xi leaned on the sofa, her eyes were red, tears flowed out uncontrollably, her complexion looked very painful.

Thinking of the spicy smell in the kitchen just now, Anthony tentatively asked, "Did you get the pepper in your eyes?"

Su Xi nodded with watery eyes.

"You wait."

After Anthony finished speaking, he ran to the toilet, took a washbasin of cold water, and then found a clean towel.

"Come on, come here."

Anthony put the washbasin in front of Su Xi, then wet the towel, slowly wiped Su Xi's eyes, and kept saying, "Think about sad things, the sadder the better. Just cry out the chili."

Su Xi was taken aback for a moment, then remained silent and didn't say anything as if she was thinking about it, and after a while, she suddenly burst into tears, her tears streaming down uncontrollably.

That was really sad crying...

Anthony's clothes were soaked in a short time...

Anthony helped her wipe her eyes with cold water, and lent her a shoulder to lean on. The two of them were like this. In the end, Anthony couldn't figure out whether to help her wipe the pepper water or tears.

Time passed, and before I knew it, it was eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Guru~"

Su Xi's stomach growled, reminding her that she was hungry.

Su Xi's eyes were already much better, but there was still a little bit of burning. Hearing the growling of his stomach at this moment, he moved out of Anthony's arms with a flushed face.

"What are you going to do?" Anthony asked suspiciously when he saw Su Xi getting ready.

"I... go cook..." Su Xi said with a flushed face. She actually wanted to say that she was hungry, but she couldn't open her mouth.

"What dishes are you still cooking? Do you want to be spicy again?"

One sentence from Anthony held Su Xi in place, not knowing what to say.

"You're hungry too, I've eaten all your dishes, and I, as compensation, went to buy you a concave cake."

Anthony said and went to get the concave cake on the table.

"Concave cake?!" Su Xi suddenly shouted in surprise, "How do you know that is my favorite?!"

"..."

Anthony coughed twice, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and said resentfully: "Coincidentally, coincidentally..."

Helping Su Xi to sit down at the table, because Su Xi's eyes were still uncomfortable, Anthony decided to be a good person to the end, picked up a spoon and fed her one spoon at a time.

Su Xi ate the concave cake and kept talking about how delicious it was. Anthony was also inexplicably happy when he saw Su Xi's satisfied expression.

"By the way, how do you know that I was scorched by chili peppers? Americans rarely use chili peppers, right?" Su Xi suddenly asked curiously while eating the concave cake.

"Uh... that..." Anthony was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

"Also, why do you like Chinese food? If it weren't for your appearance, I really thought you were Chinese." Su Xi continued.

"There are so many words to eat..." Anthony simply fed her a big piece, stuffing her mouth until she couldn't speak.

"Woooo..." Su Xi pointed to his neck, indicating that he was choking.

Anthony hurriedly poured a glass of water for her to drink, and he didn't dare to stuff it so hard anymore.

The two of them were just like that, Anthony said hello, Su Xi ate, no one spoke anymore, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little ambiguous.

Just as Anthony was about to say something to break the atmosphere, he suddenly noticed tears streaming down the corners of Su Xi's eyes.

Anthony was startled, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Are your eyes uncomfortable again?"

Su Xi shook his head, but said nothing.

Anthony looked at Su Xi, not knowing what was wrong.

After a long time, Su Xi suddenly said: "Melo, thank you... If it weren't for you, maybe my eyes... and your sunken cake, do you know that the Chinese people I told you have a hard life? , really, very tired..."

As she spoke, Su Xi's tone became choked up: "I'm a girl, to be honest, when the landlord told me that there was a male tenant coming, I refused because I was afraid, but there was nothing I could do. I have no place other than here." Affordable to rent...”

"It will be fine."

Anthony got up and walked to Su Xi's side, and leaned his head against his body. Perhaps it was what happened just now that made Su Xi open his heart.

After crying for a while, Su Xi suddenly stood up and walked upstairs without saying anything.

Anthony saw Su Xi's sudden action, and he didn't come back to his senses all at once. He still didn't understand what happened until Su Xi disappeared at the stairs. For training, he cleaned up the things on the dining table, and went back to his room to sleep.
