Chapter 592: The Second Christmas Eve
Rapping is indeed an easy thing to get started. Understanding some basic rules and finding some easy-to-talk and rhythmic songs can make people excited.
No wonder Americans love playing like this so much, it’s poisonous!
After playing rap for a long time, they fell asleep until the next day after they were drunk.
There will be a bad schedule, and there will be a good schedule.
After playing against the Cavaliers, their next schedule is relatively easier.
On December 24, we will play against the Mavericks at home.
The Mavericks' offseason operation is as active as last game. The plan to win Durant always looks grand. Even if they sign Horford, they are also a good reinforcement. But in the end, they still had to choose the plan as usual, signing second-rate players such as Mozgov and Bogut. With Nowitzki getting one year older, it is too difficult for them to make a difference in the new season.
111 to 96, the Lakers finally easily won the opponent. Although Nowitzki scored another 30 points, they were weak overall and still lost the big score.
Tang Shuai only played for 30 minutes and finally scored a double-double with 26 points and 11 assists. Under his leadership, the Lakers, who were in double digits, easily won the game.
After winning the Mavericks, Tang Shuai welcomed his second Christmas in the United States.
Because the Lakers had a poor record last season and were different from the Clippers' period, they did not arrange Christmas games on Christmas Day.
This allowed Tang Shuai to finally enjoy Christmas.
Su Mei still didn't return to the United States. After having a video porridge with him in the video, Tang Shuai went to Anna's villa with Duffy.
Anna has recovered from the pain of losing her father. After asking Duffy about borrowing some money, she went to New York to open a cosmetics store. Not to mention, this was really done.
This is actually due to Anna's "home-home" character. Before, he stayed at home all day long, so he went to study those cosmetics and became half an expert. He then found a professional makeup artist to study with the money given by Duffy. Then he opened a store. He sat up from a small store and gradually grew bigger. Until now, he has opened four or five chain stores in New York alone, and he really lives a high-end life with his own efforts.
To be honest, Anna's father's death was a motivation for her. When people were forced to a cliff, they would always stimulate their physical potential.
Although he bought a house in New York, Anna still retained this villa in Los Angeles, and it is unknown what purpose it was.
"Come on, fragrant polenta" Anna came out of the kitchen with a large bowl of fragrant polenta.
"Wow, Anna, I haven't eaten what you cook for half a year, and this skill is getting better and better." Duffy leaned over his nose and smelled it hard, and said with an intoxicated look on his face.
"What else?" Anna said, looking at Tang Shuai, then turned around and went into the kitchen.
Duffy put a spoon into his mouth, constantly intoxicated, as if he was the best in the world.
"James, Anna has changed a lot compared to before." This was the first time Tang Shuai saw Anna, and it was only after yesterday's game that Duffy told him about Anna's return.
Compared to when she left Los Angeles, Anna was obviously much more mature. Not only could she dress up, but her temperament became different with her hard work.
"People always change, aren't you the same? At this time last year, you were still a young man who frowned, but now you have become a mature and steady old man?" Duffy said with a wicked smile.
"Last year, you were just an old man." Tang Shuai speechlessly pulled the corn porridge in front of him.
"Oh, don't, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing." Duffy begs for mercy quickly.
"There are other things, you don't have to rob it, why are you still like two children?" Anna walked out of the kitchen with a plate of minced meat porridge. Seeing the two people competing for the bowl of corn porridge, she couldn't help but smile.
Tang Shuai smiled awkwardly. Duffy quickly grabbed the corn porridge in front of him, looking at him with a proud look on his face.
"Okay, it's all." Anna put down the minced meat patties and patted her hands.
On the table, turkey, plums, pudding, polenta, minced meatloaf, champagne, Christmas wine, cookies, and some sweets, the whole table was filled with.
"Come on, let's have a drink first. I haven't seen you for a long time. This glass is our reunion wine." Anna said, raising the wine glass in front of her.
"For reunion." Tang Shuai and Duffy raised their glasses one after another.
With a "ding" sound, after clinking the glasses, the three of them took a sip and put them down.
"Then let's start eating." Anna said and picked up a piece of minced meat pie in front of her.
"Then I'll start." Duffy seemed to care about the bowl of corn porridge, so he picked up the spoon and put it in his mouth. When he ate it, he didn't forget to look at Tang Shuai, afraid that he would snatch it out again.
"You've finished eating, I won't compete with you." Tang Shuai smiled bitterly and shook his head. Although Duffy was very smart, he was 2 years younger than him. Sometimes he really looked like a child who had not grown up.
"Anna, how are your business recently?" Tang Shuai looked at Anna with a smile.
"Well, it's very good, especially Chinese. Their obsession with cosmetics is beyond my imagination. I'm going to open two more chain stores in Los Angeles and Washington, where Chinese people gather." Anna said with a smile.
"That's a good thing. Now the international relations in Asia are relatively complicated, and many people in China will choose to come to the United States." Tang Shuai nodded and said.
Due to the South China Sea issue, South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia are not very stable now. People in China who like to shop abroad have also excluded these areas, but they always have to buy things. Compared with Europe, many people still like to come to the United States.
"I'll ask you to be my spokesperson until the time comes?" Anna suddenly looked at Tang Shuai with a smile.
"Ahem"
Duffy was drinking corn porridge. When he heard Anna's words, he choked and coughed.
Anna hurriedly handed over the napkin.
"I said Anna, are you right? Did you ask Tang to be the spokesperson for cosmetics?" After all, Duffy was Tang Shuai's agent. After all, he looked at Anna speechlessly when he heard this.
"James, you are such an agent, but I'm just kidding. I'm already ready to invite Agaric Ranadave to be our spokesperson." Anna said with a smile.
"Ajiali?" Tang Shuai was stunned for a moment. Anna mentioned this name, which evoked many memories in his mind.
"Well, my company is not large and I can't hire big-name stars. I can only take some deviant ways. Ajiali is very influential in China. Moreover, because she is the daughter of the King's boss, she is not short of money. What she lacks is this opportunity for exposure. We can say that it hit it off." Anna said with a smile.
"Yes." Tang Shuai barely squeezed out a smile. Although Ajiali had something to do with him, that was mostly some ungood memories.
"Why, do you know her?" Anna looked at Tang Shuai curiously.
Tang Shuai shook his head quickly.
"I can introduce you to you if you have the chance. I heard that she is still your fan." Anna said with a smile.
"No, no, no." Tang Shuai quickly waved his hand and said, "The turkey should be eaten while it is hot, so let's divide it quickly."
Several people chatted for a while, and before they knew it, it was past 11 o'clock, and in a dozen minutes the Christmas bell would be coming.
They drank some wine and their faces were slightly red.
Duffy took the last sip of polenta, burped, and said with emotion: "This is really delicious. Unfortunately, I don't already have a girlfriend like Tang. Otherwise, if she sat next to me, it would definitely be more delicious."
"You're thinking enough." Tang Shuai smiled speechlessly.
But just as he turned around, he noticed that Anna's smile stopped, and a sad feeling appeared on her face.
"How could I think too much? I think I can't live alone tonight. I have to call a stripper, but I don't know if they're still open on Christmas Eve." Duffy was a little drunk and his words became frivolous.
"Cough cough" Tang Shuai coughed twice, then took some photos of Duffy and signaled him to Anna with his eyes.
Duffy turned his head and saw Anna's eyes flushed and she woke up most of the wine.
"You eat first, I'll go out and get angry for a while." Anna said, standing up and walking towards the balcony.
Duffy responded quickly, and he quickly said, "I seem to have said the wrong thing, Anna's father."
"I'll go and have a look." Tang Shuai said and stood up.
Last Christmas, Anna was feeding his father polenta. Duffy's unintentional words must have reminded her of this scene, which led to such a big emotional fluctuation.
Walking to the balcony, Tang Shuai turned around and saw Anna standing there, leaning her hands on the guardrail, her head buried in her hands, and her body trembling slightly.
He took a deep breath, walked to her, comforted him, "Anna, if your father knew you were so well now, he would definitely be happy in heaven."
Anna trembled even more.
Tang Shuai suddenly seemed a little at a loss. He was actually not particularly good at comforting women.
At this moment, Anna suddenly raised her head.
Tang Shuai saw that her face was covered with tears.
The next second, Anna turned around and hugged her, and then cried even more exaggeratedly.
Tang Shuai was stunned. Looking back a few months ago, he seemed to have wet a piece of clothing after crying. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out to hug Anna.
"Dong!"
Just then, a bell sounded from afar.
The bells rang throughout this area. Soon, the cheers of the people came from a short distance, accompanied by a few fireworks.
Christmas Eve in 2016 is here. To be continued.
