Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

After the game, the simple awards ceremony ended. Zuo Li accepted the courtside interview, took photos with several familiar celebrity fans, and then walked to the locker room.

Han Xue originally wanted to go over for an interview, but it could be seen that Zuo Li, who had won the victory and successfully defeated Oden with better data, was not very interested. The interview did not have the same windy and humorous words when he got high scores.

, and replaced it with a very official answer sheet.

So Han Xue gave up the interview here. Maybe it would be more appropriate to ask again at the press conference.

Maybe Zuo Li didn't have enough fun playing?

Han Xue thought of it.

While Han Xue was thinking about the unreliable reason, Zuo Li walked to the door of the players' tunnel and stood there, because Oden was waiting there.

"A great game, man, it's really great to play against you." Oden scratched his forehead honestly: "This is the most enjoyable game I have played in my comeback, so I was wondering if I could exchange jerseys.

.”

"Huh~!" Zuo Li sighed softly.

In fact, whether Oden is injured or not has nothing to do with Zuo Li, because injuries and sports have always been inseparable. Players like Oden who are talented but suffer from injuries are like meteors streaking across the sky in the past few decades.

Don't know the geometry.

Just open any software and do a simple search and you will find a lot of them. Each of them has his own story and quite similar regrets.

Zuo Li was not overly sympathetic, but Oden had a slight overlap with his own memories in his previous life. Maybe it was the appointment he couldn't keep after the game, or maybe he suffered an injury that was difficult to recover from in his previous life, and also suffered from injuries.

He retired due to illness and fell at the gate of the NBA.

This memory can be called Zuo Li's biggest regret in his previous life, so much so that even after traveling through time, the memory was very profound, and it completely burst out after meeting Oden.

The reason why Zuo Li valued this duel so much, and even gave up his best breakthrough play in order to have a good time playing against Oden, was to make up for the regrets of his previous life.

But at the end of the song, there was not much happiness to make up for the regrets, but a sense of loss, because Zuo Li discovered that regrets are regrets after all, and they cannot be made up for or offset.

But Zuo Li, who was happy to see a game ahead of him, suddenly understood.

"After all, people have to look forward. Only by grasping the present can we have a future. The past is past. The most important thing is not to let regrets continue in the future."

After thinking about it, Zuo Li slowly restored his smile: "Of course, it's also my honor."

The two exchanged jerseys. This time Zuo Li did not agree on anything, but before leaving, Zuo Li stopped Oden.

"Hey, man, there are many kinds of life. Sometimes you don't have to care about the outside world's opinions. Just be yourself. The most important thing is to be happy, right?"

Regardless of the confusion on Oden's face, Zuo Li turned around and left. At this moment, Zuo Li completely let go of the baggage of his previous life.

Now, Zuo Li only has eyes for the present.

Of course, Zuo Li also hopes that Oden can find a better version of himself.

…

On the 4th, the entire Knicks team has a day off.

For the first time, Zuo Li did not participate in late-night snack activities. When he got home, he turned off his mobile phone and started to sleep. He slept until four o'clock in the afternoon the next day before slowly waking up.

After getting up, Zuo Li felt refreshed and his body became lighter. The fatigue from days of fighting had disappeared. More importantly, he felt psychologically comfortable.

With such a good state, Zuo Li decided... to go out to eat!

I turned on my phone, ignored a bunch of congratulatory text messages, turned to Aomei's phone number, and called her directly.

On the boulevard of New York University, O'Mei had just finished her elective course and was holding her books to prepare for the transition. Her best friend beside her was chattering about what to eat for dinner. A crisp ringtone disrupted their plans.

"Zuo Li?" Aomei's tone was brisk and a little bit surprising.

Because Zuo Li rarely took the initiative to call her, he usually called her to talk about something important. He looked at the time and saw that Zuo Li was usually either training or on the way to training at this time. It was the same even at school.

Apart from basketball, Zuo Li usually has nothing else to focus on.

So Aomei subconsciously thought that Zuo Li had something important to talk about.

But no, Zuo Li just wanted to have dinner with Omei this time.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the door after class. Well, okay, bye~" O'Mei hung up the phone and wrinkled her lovely eyebrows. She always felt that Zuo Li was a little different today.

But soon she stopped thinking about these issues. This was a rare invitation from Zuo Li, and she had to go beautifully!

So she suffered a lot from her best friend, and she could only have dinner with Lonely.

2 hours later, Zuo Li's Audi showed up at the steakhouse he went to most often with Aomei in his car. For Zuo Li, apart from Chinese food, there is nothing better than tender steak, especially when he is hungry.

when.

Zuo Li ordered eight of the largest portions in one go, and the massive amount of steaks piled up a hill.

"Well, it really has to be steak." Zuo Li sighed with satisfaction after taking a bite of it.

"I haven't eaten for a day, and now I can even chase a cow and take a bite."

"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, waiter, give me a glass of soda, not ice." Aomei looked on but felt a little distressed. In the past, Zuo Li always looked like he was in control, and he was so free like today.

, this is the first time.

"No matter what happens, I will be with you." Aomei said softly, her eyes full of solemnity.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing." After understanding Omei's worries, Zuo Li said with a smile: "Eat slowly, it's hard to have a holiday, and I will take you somewhere later."

"Okay!" Aomei's eyes narrowed again. She didn't ask where she was going or the time, because subconsciously, Zuo Li was the person she trusted the most and the person she thought was least likely to hurt her.

.

"I have to thank Oden. I don't know how long it will take to prevent you from letting me..." Zuo Li shook his head slightly.

"What?"

"Ah, it's nothing. The steak here is good, very fresh, 7-rare is just right. I eat well-done in other places, just because I like to make those chefs uncomfortable." Zuo Li interrupted with a smile.

After having enough wine and food, the plates of steaks were piled up in a hill. Zuo Li, a voracious eater with full energy, was able to get the boss to send the two of them to the door with a smile on his face.

The boss who turned around did not forget to place Zuo Li's signature carefully. This would be a magic weapon to make the restaurant more popular in the future.

Zuo Li left and drove south. On the car was Taylor Swift's new album, and O'Mei was singing along softly, tapping the time.

After 15 minutes, the car stopped.

"This is..." O'Mei's eyes widened as she got off the car, dusty memories appearing in her mind.

"Ah, this is where I first learned your name." Zuo Li came around from the other side and looked down at O ​​Mei's eyes:

"Although it's a bit abrupt to say this now,...Olson, I like you. Although it's a little late, can you please be my girlfriend?"
