Chapter 8 The Beautiful Landlord, the Meeting with Yao Ming
Just as Chu Tian walked into the single-family villa, he bumped into a slim beauty.
"Who are you? How do you have the key here?"
Chu Tian quickly helped up the beautiful woman who was knocked to the ground by him, and asked in a deep voice. In fact, he already had some guesses in his heart, but he just needed to confirm it.
Sure enough, the other party brushed away Chu Tian's hands that were kindly supporting him, and asked angrily:
"Who let you live here, was it Alice?"
Then before Chu Tian could answer, she stroked her blond hair that was slightly messy due to the impact with both hands in frustration, and continued to say angrily:
"Damn! Didn't I tell her not to rent this house to Asians? Why didn't she listen? Uh, are you Korean? Japanese? Chinese?"
What's up with Asians?Chu Tian raised his brows when he heard this, but said very gently:
"Miss, I am Chinese! Wait~"
Chu Tian suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly asked:
"You mean to say that this house is yours, Mrs. Alice, and that you rented it out without your permission. Is that what you mean?"
"En!" The blond beauty nodded, looked at the serious Chu Tian, suddenly smiled, and asked:
"Could you have paid her a year's rent?"
Chu Tian nodded with a sinking face, and then heard the blonde beauty say:
"Then you are out of luck, this year's rent has not been handed over to me.
Not only that, Alice also confiscated my rent from other places, and now I can't get through the phone when I'm missing. I suspect that she absconded with money. "
"How about this! I'm going to fly to Houston tomorrow, can you let me stay here for a few days first, and we can negotiate to resolve this matter after I come back from Houston?"
When Chu Tian expressed his thoughts, he thought that the other party would not agree, but who knew that the other party nodded unexpectedly.
"Aren't you afraid that I will run away like Alice?" Chu Tian asked curiously.
The blond beauty first smiled and shook her head, then took out a copy of today's "Los Angeles Times" from the table next to her, pointed to a news item on the third page and asked:
"I brought this this morning, is this you?"
Chu Tian picked it up and took a look. It turned out that it was the news about the Lakers hiring Chu Tian as the acting head coach, and the illustrations in the news were photographed by reporters when Chu Tian was coaching the Lakers.
It turned out that this was the case, and Chu Tian even mistakenly thought that the beautiful woman was interested in him!Chu Tian shrugged, smiled and asked:
"You like basketball too?"
"Well, I often go to Los Angeles to watch games at home. By the way, I forgot to tell you my name. My name is Ivanka."
The blond girl stretched out her hand and shook Chu Tian's hand, then walked outside, saying as she walked:
"Aren't you going to play against the Rockets tomorrow night? Come on! You have to beat them! You can do it, Chu!"
"Thank you!"
The two parties said goodbye politely, and Chu Tian didn't remember the identity of the other party until the blonde girl left.
I go!No wonder, so beautiful!But Chu Tian didn't think too much, he understood that he and the other party are people from two worlds.
He just didn't expect his landlord to be such a person of status. As for beauties, the most indispensable thing in this paradise in Los Angeles is beauties.
The premise is that you have money and status.
wait!There will be all these.
……
At 6 o'clock the next morning, Chu Tian rushed to the airport to meet the Lakers, and then they boarded the plane and flew to Houston, the destination of the next game.
It took more than 5 hours from Los Angeles to Houston. Fortunately, the journey on the plane was not monotonous. The players gathered in twos and threes to play cards and games, while Kobe studied the game video.
It was the first time for Chutian to fly on a plane no matter in his previous life or now, so he felt a little uneasy, so he rejected the kindness of the team members calling him to play games together, and directly fell asleep with his head covered.
By the time Kobe woke him up, the plane had already arrived in Los Angeles, and it was almost noon.
After the whole team got off the plane, they got on the local bus where the car was repaired, checked into the local Hilton Hotel in Houston, and then it was personal rest time, as long as they gathered at the hotel before three o'clock in the afternoon.
Just as Chu Tian was about to go out for a walk, Kobe knocked on the door, saying that he was enjoying the delicious food in Houston.
The two were about to go out when Chu Tian's phone rang, it was an unfamiliar phone number.
"Hey, hello, are you Chutian?" The other party spoke in pure Mandarin, and Chu Tian vaguely guessed the other party's identity, and replied:
"Hello! I'm Chutian, who are you?"
"I'm Yao Ming! Have you eaten yet? I'll treat you to lunch!"
Sure enough, it was Yao Ming, and the other party was indeed as generous and hospitable as the rumors said, and he was already waiting under the Hilton Hotel
"Oh, sorry, Kobe! It seems that I can't enjoy the local food in Houston with you, but someone is willing to invite us to taste Chinese food, do you want to go together?"
Chu Tian smiled and said to Kobe, in fact, Kobe is also a foodie, he also likes Chinese food very much, especially when he heard that Yao Ming was treating him, he was more willing.
Chu Tian and Kobe went downstairs to join Yao Ming, Yao Ming was really tall, just like Kobe and Yao Ming stood together like ordinary people, not to mention Chu Tian.
After exchanging warm greetings, the three got into Yao Ming's special car,
In the car, Chu found out that today was Yao's restaurant's trial opening day.
Yao Restaurant is located at No. 9755 Westheimer Street, the most prosperous high-end dining street in the XC District of Houston, USA. It is very close to Houston’s China Town, only about 15 minutes’ drive away, and its geographical location is unique.
After arriving at Yao restaurant, Yao's father, Yao's mother and their partners were already waiting in the luxurious private room of the restaurant. Besides, there were two friends from the press. Yao Ming's family was very enthusiastic.
Yao Restaurant specializes in Chinese and Western food. The dishes in the restaurant are still based on Chinese Shanghai and Sichuan cuisine, but elements that meet American tastes are added, so it is called Chinese and Western food.
The atmosphere of this dinner was very good. Yao's father and Yao's mother were well-informed people. Although Kobe was rumored to be withdrawn, he was also very talkative in private compared to the team.
Not to mention Chutian, who has experience in dealing with people in his previous life, he will always have endless topics to talk about.
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, the party was about to end perfectly. Chu Tian suddenly asked:
"Dayao, are you happy in Houston?"
As soon as these words came out, even Kobe frowned secretly, a little confused about Tian's intention.
