Chapter 25 Wangzai
Half an hour later, Yang Mi finally calmed down and went back to sleep.
Wang Xiucheng opened the system again.
There was no notification that the quest was completed this time, meaning that it is impossible to complete two quests on the same person within a certain period of time.
That's true, otherwise I'd rather work myself to death than do anything else today.
I checked the remaining points on the system: 8620 points.
Green played well in yesterday's game, scoring 24 points. Even though he didn't play in the second half, he still managed to rack up 370 points, otherwise he would have had even fewer points now.
Without comparison, there is no harm. Several exhausting competitions are not as good as lying in bed for half an hour. Who can you complain to?
Wang Xiucheng closed the attribute panel but did not make any changes to the attributes.
There aren't enough points, so adding even a tiny bit won't make much difference.
It's better to save them up and use them to upgrade "Anticipatory Passing" when you reach 1 points.
Wang Xiucheng had no idea what this "Legend of Prediction" skill was or how to use it.
"I can only try it out at the training facility tonight when I get to Phoenix."
Taking out his phone to stop thinking about these things, Wang Xiucheng started casually scrolling through the news.
His dunk once again topped the trending charts, and many people started imitating him again.
Many fans even went to LaVine's account to "kindly" remind him that Wang Xiucheng had actually performed his 360-degree free throw line dunk in a real game.
LaVine was so fed up with that he recorded another video and posted it overnight.
In the video, LaVine holds the ball with one hand, accelerates from the baseline, and throws the ball forward when he reaches the top of the three-point arc.
Then, at his fastest speed, he stepped on the free-throw line, jumped high, and caught the basketball bouncing off the backboard.
That wasn't the end of it. LaVine then switched hands between his legs before dunking the ball into the basket.
Although it was a very difficult moment, with only two fingers touching the rim, it was still incredibly impressive.
The video has been viewed millions of times, and many fans are calling out Wang Xiucheng's name in the comments.
After watching LaVine's video, Wang Xiucheng's expression changed, and he took several deep breaths of the cold morning air from Los Angeles.
It's impossible, absolutely impossible!
Even if you break your back, you still can't do that.
Fortunately, Wang Xiucheng's account was not verified and not many people knew about it, otherwise he would have been annoyed to death by these people who love to watch the drama.
Then another news item came into Wang Xiucheng's view.
In the second week of the official rookie rankings update, Wang Xiucheng surprisingly entered the list for the first time and even made it into the top ten.
This surprised Wang Xiucheng, who had only played four games in total, all as a substitute and even during garbage time.
How did this even make the list?
That means there will be so many rookies in the 21st draft class!
Wang Xiucheng opened the list and looked at it.
The Raptors' fourth overall pick, Barnes, is ranked first, followed by the Cavaliers' third overall pick, Mobley, and the Pacers' 13th overall pick, Duarte.
Meanwhile, Jalen Green, the Rockets' highly anticipated second overall pick, is ranked 7th, averaging 13.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game.
Another Rockets rookie, Shen Jing, ranks 8th, averaging 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game.
Wang Xiucheng, who went undrafted in 21, surprisingly made it onto the list, ranking 10th with an average of 3.8 points and 3.5 assists per game.
There was even a passage below Wang Xiucheng's post: After playing only four games with less than 20 minutes each, Wang Xiucheng had already won over the discerning fans of Houston. Two explosive dunks made everyone remember his name. Unfortunately, he was with the Rockets.
The last sentence is clearly an allusion to the Rockets' chaotic management, which may not allow Wang Xiucheng much playing time, given that the Rockets have too many young players to develop.
noon.
Yang Mi cooked the meal herself, four dishes and a soup, not much, but enough for the two of them.
Yang Mi was full after eating only a little, while Wang Xiucheng ate two bowls of rice and showed no signs of stopping.
After leaving Houston, Wang Xiucheng never ate Chinese food again, and instead ate the team's standard nutritional meals every day, which was a real ordeal for him.
The TV was showing yesterday's NBA Top 5 Plays, and Wang Xiucheng's dunk was undoubtedly the best again.
As Wang Xiucheng looked at it, he kept shaking his head, seemingly dissatisfied.
Yang Mi didn't watch TV; she's actually not interested in basketball or even sports in general.
She was only interested in the man in front of her.
Looking at Wang Xiucheng's sculpted profile, Yang Mi couldn't help but kiss him, only to find her mouth full of grease.
Wang Xiucheng was taken aback. He was genuinely afraid of this woman. She was at the age where she was as fierce as a wolf or tiger. If it weren't for the fact that she had recently gained a lot of attributes, Wang Xiucheng would have been finished long ago.
She got up and left the dining table, and soon returned with a set of keys.
“I bought this house ten years ago, and it became mine after the divorce.” Yang Mi didn’t mind telling Wang Xiucheng about her divorce, and it was impossible for Wang Xiucheng not to know.
"Here's the house key. You can come anytime. I should be going back to China soon; I have too many things to do."
Yang Mi placed the keys on the table and continued speaking.
“That Mustang in the garage is too small for you. I’ll ask my best friend to help me buy a bigger car so it will be much more convenient for you in Los Angeles.”
Wang Xiucheng nodded without being pretentious.
Wang Xiucheng had considered refusing for a moment, but what kind of person would he become if he refused?
They'll just take advantage of you and leave?
Isn't that just like that woman He Yuman?
Neither Wang Xiucheng nor Yang Mi spoke about the future; they both knew that the future was too much of a luxury for them.
Yang Mi knows very well that if the domestic media and fans find out that she has a boyfriend who is not even 20 years old, they will drown her in their gossip.
If Wang Xiucheng's parents knew that their son, whom they had raised with great care and sent to study in the United States, had actually found a woman who was almost 40 years old, Yang Mi would find it hard to imagine such a dramatic scene.
This kind of thing happens a lot in the United States, but for Chinese people, it's too avant-garde, even rebellious.
All Yang Mi fans just want to cherish the present.
Seeing that Wang Xiucheng had finished all the food, Yang Mi couldn't hide her happiness.
Just thinking about having to part ways with Wang Xiucheng soon made Yang Mi's face show her disappointment.
Seemingly noticing the change in Yang Mi's expression, Wang Xiucheng suddenly remembered the joke.
After finishing the last of his food, Wang Xiucheng said, seemingly still wanting more, "I'm not quite full."
Yang Mi looked at Wang Xiucheng in surprise. Wang Xiucheng ate most of the food himself, yet he was still not full.
"What should we do then?" Yang Mi stood up. "Should I make you some more?"
"No need." Wang Xiucheng shook his head and grabbed her hand. "I want to eat Want Want Little Buns."
Yang Mi understood immediately, and her cheeks flushed red. "Only two..."
