basketball dreams

Chapter 49
December 2018, 12 was an unforgettable day.

This morning, when Yunchen got up early, washed up and prepared to go to the arena for training, he unexpectedly ran into Lu Qingyan at the door of the apartment.

Looking down at his watch, it was only ten past eight, and it seemed that Lu Qingyan had been waiting here for a while.

"Morning, Yunchen!" As soon as she saw Yunchen coming out, Lu Qingyan smiled and came over to say hello.

Yun Chen blinked her eyes and thought she had misread: "Um... am I still awake? Why did you come to my place so early?"

Hearing this, Lu Qingyan immediately frowned her delicate eyebrows and said angrily, "Why, you're not welcome?"

"Welcome, welcome! Of course I welcome you!" Seeing that Lu Qingyan was unhappy, Yun Chen hurried over with a smile on his face.

At this time, Lu Qingyan took out a small box from behind and handed it to Yun Chen.

Yun Chen looked at the exquisite light blue box in front of him, and asked doubtfully, "What is this?"

"Open it and have a look." Lu Qingyan said pretending to be mysterious.

Yun Chen burst out laughing, took the box and slowly opened it.

I don't know what material the box is made of, but it feels a little warm to the touch. When I opened the lid with a little force, a fresh breath came over.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Yun Chen couldn't help exclaiming, and was immediately attracted by this indescribable fragrance.

Taking off the lid and looking inside, it turned out to be a mixture of various meats, eggs, and soy products, and the arrangement was so delicate that Yunchen swallowed unconsciously just by looking at it.

"This is... breakfast for me?" He blinked and looked at Lu Qingyan.

Lu Qingyan nodded: "Yes, you have invited me to dinner twice and bought me so many things. If I don't pay you back once, wouldn't it be too rude? Why, don't you like it?"

"I like it! But..."

"But what? I made this according to the physique of a basketball player. It can't...can't be eaten?" When she heard Yun Chen's voice was wrong, Lu Qingyan immediately looked over with wide eyes nervously.

The physique of basketball players is different from that of ordinary people, and their diet is extremely strict and standardized, so she is very afraid that Yunchen will not be able to eat the things she made.

"No, no, this meat is fresh from the looks of it. It should have been made in the morning. It will take at least an hour to make such a box. It's only after eight o'clock. When did you..."

"Ah, as long as it's delicious, why do you care so much!"

……

Today, Tencent Sports and the Cavaliers officially reached an agreement to send a reporter to conduct follow-up interviews throughout the day. Because Lu Qingyan is familiar with the Cavaliers players (mainly Yunchen), he was sent here.

However, she didn't know the specific itinerary of the Cavaliers, and she was afraid that the time to go would be in vain, so she came directly to find Yunchen.

After wolfing down the breakfast made by Lu Qingyan, Yun Chen drove Lu Qingyan to the Quicken Loans Arena.

The home team's training time is scheduled in the morning, and the Suns will come in the afternoon.

Because Lu Qingyan's appearance was delayed for some time, when Yunchen arrived at the arena, almost all the players were present, and Tyronn Lue had already arrived, guiding them to warm-up training.

"Wow, Li, is this your girlfriend?" As soon as Yun Chen and Lu Qingyan appeared, his teammates immediately surrounded him as if they had discovered a new continent.

"No, no, she is a reporter and will be interviewing with the team today." Yun Chen hurriedly explained.

"Really?" JR suddenly squinted at Yun Chen, with an expression on his face that I don't believe you at all.

Lu Qingyan's appearance is really high, even from the perspective of foreigners, she is a first-class beauty, so it is normal for them to have such a reaction.

"Really!" Yun Chen rolled his eyes.

"Then since it's not your girlfriend, then I can...hehe!" JR burst into laughter when he heard Yun Chen's words, and stepped forward to Lu Qingyan's side, so frightened that Lu Qingyan hurriedly hid behind Yun Chen .

"What are you doing!" In an instant, Yun Chen's face sank immediately, and he stared at JR condescendingly, an aura of calm and prestige also exuded!

Yun Chen is usually very easy-going, and it is rare to see him get angry, this directly scared JR back a step.

"Don't move around!" Yun Chen gave JR a hard look, and then led Lu Qingyan to the side to find the staff.

Foreigners had to sign some documents after entering the stadium, so Lu Qingyan was taken away by the staff afterwards.

"Hey, do you think that's Li's girlfriend?" Looking at the back of Yun Chen walking past, JR poked Osman with his elbow.

Yun Chen's momentum just now really startled him, and he hasn't recovered yet.

"Well, depending on his reaction, maybe it is." Osman replied.

……

This morning, because the team has a new player, Seth Curry, the main practice is the cooperation between the new players and the team.

Everyone was divided into two teams to fight against each other, the starting team and the substitute team.

Both Yunchen and Seth Curry are on the bench.

The purpose of Tyronn Lue's doing this is actually for their newly studied tactic about Seth Curry.

This tactic will be played for the first time today, so both Yunchen and Tai Lunlu are looking forward to it. If it succeeds, the attack methods they can choose in the future will also be richer!
This tactic can also be regarded as a test for Seth Curry!
One morning, they played a few 10-minute practice games. Not only Seth Curry, but everyone on the bench was familiar with the role of the new tactics.

After all the training was over, everyone packed up their things and prepared to make room for the Suns.

After Lu Qingyan signed various documents, she kept a notebook beside her and recorded something.

The team can't take pictures or videotape interviews on closed days, so she can only use written ones.

After the training, Yun Chen went over to call Lu Qingyan after packing up her things. He wanted to take her to eat, but instead of going out to eat, they had a nutritious meal prepared for them by the team's nutritionist.

"Is that nutritious meal different from the ones I've eaten before?" On the way, Lu Qingyan kept asking this and that. It was also her first time inside an NBA team, so she was very curious about everything.

"Hmm... Maybe it's not different." Yun Chen laughed out loud.

Just as the two were talking and laughing as they walked forward slowly, in front of them, a black figure slowly walked over from the other end of the passage.

"Huh?" Yun Chen quickly noticed the person in front of him.

"It's you..." Yunchen was surprised when he saw this person, he was not from the Cavaliers.

"Why is he here? Isn't it time for their training?" Lu Qingyan also noticed at this time.

The person who came was none other than DeAndre Ayton, the number one pick of the Suns who has been talking nonsense in front of the media in the past two days!
"Wow, isn't this Li?" When the two sides met, there were still a few meters away, and Ayton started to say hello without seeing anyone.

The biggest encounter between the two was when they took a group photo at the talent show, so Yun Chen didn't quite understand why he was so "self-acquainted".

What's more, judging from media reports, the relationship between the two of them is not good.

"Deandre Ayton, hello." However, out of politeness, Yun Chen still nodded. No matter what happened outside, at least the atmosphere between the two of them was still peaceful now.

Seeing this, Ayton also nodded, but unlike Yun Chen, he nodded in an arrogant way, just a slight nod.

"Are you ready for tonight's game?" Ayton asked after saying hello.

Yun Chen shrugged: "It's okay."

"Hehe... I believe you have seen what I said in front of the media." At this time, Ayton, after the greetings, actually said such a sentence directly.

"Oh? So what?" Yun Chen smiled.

"Li, today, I will let you understand what dominance is!" Finally, he broke the superficial peace between the two.

"Hehe..." Yun Chen smiled again, "Let me give you a prophecy."

"Ah?" Ayton frowned, he didn't understand what Yun Chen meant.

"I prophesy, today I will give you at least thirty points!"
