Chapter 228 Departure, Trip to Los Angeles!
At this moment, the person wearing a hat and mask had already entered the elevator.
Only after the elevator doors closed did this person take off their mask and hat.
It turned out to be Zeng Fanbo.
Soon everyone arrived at the restaurant floor.
Wang Xiucheng was already sitting with Scarlett Johansson and Cody.
Wang Xiucheng just entered through the back door of the hotel.
The Four Seasons Hotel certainly has a back door, but it's not usually open, and not many people know about it.
Ma Wei entered the hotel early in order to find someone to give Wang Xiucheng special treatment.
Seeing Wang Xiucheng there, everyone felt relieved and went to find food to eat.
Are your eyes really okay?
Cody asked again.
He was terrified when he saw Wang Xiucheng's eyes at the scene.
He put himself in her shoes and realized that if he had been in that position, he would probably have been bedridden for half a month.
If Wang Xiucheng can still play, then there shouldn't be any major problems.
These professional athletes are truly physically strong.
Scarlett Johansson also looked up, staring nervously into Wang Xiucheng's eyes.
Wang Xiucheng smiled and replied, "It's alright, it'll be fine in a few days."
This answer reassured both Scarlett Johansson and Cody.
“I’m going back to Los Angeles in two more days,” Scarlett Johansson said casually after a while.
“Mr. Cody will miss you,” Wang Xiucheng said without looking up, after stuffing a piece of meat into his mouth.
Scarlett Johansson glanced at Wang Xiucheng.
“It’s okay. I’m only busy on weekends. I have to be in New York, but I’m usually in Los Angeles,” Cody explained to Wang Xiucheng.
Scarlett Johansson and Cody had already finished eating, but they were just sitting there to chat with Wang Xiucheng.
About half an hour later, Wang Xiucheng also finished eating.
Just as they were about to get up and go back to the apartment together, Wang Xiucheng's phone rang.
With an apologetic smile, Wang Xiucheng told Scarlett Johansson and Cody to leave first, then sat down again.
I glanced at my phone; the caller ID showed Li Jiahua.
When Wang Xiucheng was in Houston, he had already seen Li Jiahua's contract in Ma Xiaoxuan's room.
That same day, Wang Xiucheng called Li Jiahua and told him to come to New York to sign the contract.
The call connected, and Li Jiahua's excited voice came through.
"Mr. Wang, the plane tickets are booked. We'll be departing tomorrow night."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiucheng said, "By the time you arrive, I should have already set off for the away game. You'll have to wait a few more days for me."
"It's okay, good things come to those who wait. I'll be waiting for you to come back in New York. By the way, about your eyes..."
"It's nothing." Wang Xiucheng smiled. It seemed that Li Jiahua had also watched the live broadcast.
Li Jiahua visibly breathed a sigh of relief on the phone, but then seemed to remember something and continued speaking.
“Mr. Wang, I’m going to New York this time, and Jia Ni will be coming with me. She will be staying in New York for about a month. Could you please book a room for her?”
What Li Jiahua didn't mention was that someone did indeed go into Zhang Jiani's room at night last time.
This left Li Jiahua and Zhang Jiani feeling quite frightened. Fortunately, Wang Xiucheng was there, otherwise it would have been really dangerous.
He would only stay in New York for a few days and could stay anywhere, but Zhang Jiani would stay for a month.
“I understand,” Wang Xiucheng replied.
Li Jiahua's idea was for Wang Xiucheng to rent a room on the same floor as Ma Wei and his group, as that would be safer.
However, at the end of the year in New York, various brands hold their fashion shows, so this period is the peak season in New York, and it is difficult to find vacant rooms in places like the Four Seasons Hotel.
Fortunately, Wang Xiucheng had been renting three rooms at the Four Seasons Hotel for many years.
One of them is where Zeng Fanbo lives, and it's registered under the Nets' account.
The other two are where the brothers Ma Wei and Wu Di Wu Jia live.
If Ma Xiaoxuan comes, she will stay in Ma Wei's room, and Ma Wei will move to the Wu brothers' place.
These three rooms are on the same floor and are adjacent to each other.
Just have Ma Wei vacate a room for Zhang Jiani.
……
10am the next day.
Wang Xiucheng arrived in Chinatown, put on a hat and mask, and got out of the car.
As soon as he arrived at the door, before Wang Xiucheng could even ring the doorbell, the door was already open.
A pair of slender, fair hands pulled Wang Xiucheng inside.
"I thought you weren't coming," Meng Chao said with a hint of resentment.
"Where else can we eat such delicious braised beef?"
Wang Xiucheng sniffed and, sure enough, smelled the aroma of braised beef.
Meng Chao looked closely into Wang Xiucheng's eyes and found that it was indeed not as serious as it had been yesterday.
"What are you looking at?"
"Look at you."
"If you look again, I'll eat you up!"
Wang Xiucheng suddenly started practicing ball control techniques, and soon his opponent's equipment was completely destroyed by Wang Xiucheng!
……
The next morning, Wang Xiucheng went to Meng Chao's house to report to the team. Then, the entire Nets team of 50 people boarded a private jet and flew to Los Angeles to begin their four-game away trip.
In addition to back-to-back games against the Clippers and Lakers, the Nets will also face the Kings and the Portland Trail Blazers.
This is a tough road trip for the Nets.
For Wang Xiucheng, there is one more extremely important thing to do between the four away games.
That afternoon, the entire Nets team arrived in sunny Los Angeles.
The team did not require the players to return to the hotel with the management.
Many members of the team had houses or friends in Los Angeles, so the team disbanded.
Wang Xiucheng followed the group out of the airport, arrived at a black Lincoln Navigator, opened the door, and got in.
Jenna, wearing a hat and sunglasses, was smiling at Wang Xiucheng.
"Did you miss me?" Jenna asked directly as Wang Xiucheng got into the car.
Wang Xiucheng nodded, Jenna's eyes became glazed, and she floored the accelerator, sending the Navigator hurtling off.
Just ten minutes later, the navigator arrived at a motel.
"What are you doing here?" Wang Xiucheng asked, puzzled.
Jenna said somewhat helplessly, "Kinka knew you were coming to Los Angeles for an away game, so she organized a family gathering."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiucheng felt a headache coming on.
Wang Xiucheng felt a pain in his cheeks, especially when he thought of Kelly.
“I know you don’t want to go, but Alice has always been taken care of by Gold Card…”
Jenna didn't say what came next, but the meaning was clear.
If Wang Xiucheng doesn't go this time, then Jenna will feel embarrassed to continue letting Jinka take care of her daughter in the future.
Jenna named their daughter Alice.
Wang Xiucheng had no objection to the name at all, since he wouldn't choose an American name anyway. To this day, Wang Xiucheng himself doesn't have an American name; all his documents use the pinyin of his Chinese name.
"Then let's go," Wang Xiucheng could only say.
But the next second, Wang Xiucheng asked, puzzled, "Then what are we doing here?"
Jenna blushed and pulled Wang Xiucheng out of the car. "Didn't you want a boy? It's not convenient at my sister's house, but it's convenient here."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiucheng chuckled and immediately picked Jenna up...
