It was a crazy night - crazy games, crazy wins, crazy celebrations. The whole night was in a frenzy. On the campus in Westwood District, countless students took to the streets, singing loudly and partying. , cheering wantonly, and getting drunk, as if this is the end of the world.
For the Pac-12 League, the Rose Bowl is the highest honor symbol of football; for the college league, the Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, and Festive Bowl are the highest-level championships they can compete for. In other words, this is their Super Bowl!
You can imagine how important it is for the students of UCLA to regain the Rose Bowl after 25 years.
After the game came to an end, the officials first selected the best player of the game. The best offensive player was won by Logan Newman, and the best defensive player was won by JJ Watt. Then, all the Bruins players boarded the leaderboard. The podium held the Rose Bowl, a symbol of honor, which declared the end of the entire event. But, the celebration has just begun.
Although he only played for two minutes, Lu Ke undoubtedly became the biggest star of the entire team. He received special attention, including drinking, games, and celebrations, one after another, and one glass after another of alcohol was poured into his stomach. Unfortunately, Lu Ke drank directly from the fragment and had no memory of what happened. When he woke up again, he found that he was sleeping in a bathtub——
He didn't know where he was, but it was certain that he wasn't in his apartment. What's more, he doesn't remember how he got here.
After leaving the bathtub, he came to the hall and saw a large number of corpses lying strewn about. The strong smell of alcohol in the air made Lu Ke's stomach start to tumble again and he had a splitting headache. He didn't remember much about last night. Beer, red wine, whiskey, brandy, vodka...all kinds of alcohol were mixed together and kept pouring into his stomach. Even when the fragments started to break, he now had The impression is blurred.
Thinking about it carefully, the only thing he remembered was that when he arrived at the party, the members of the offensive team were brought on the stage. A rose bowl as big as a basin was used as a wine glass, filled with alcohol, and then the members of the offensive team took turns. In a circle, everyone must drink, which means that the first person can drink the least. If the people in front are not loyal, the last person must drink the rest.
Lu Ke secretly tried to get to the front, but ended up being the last one with boos and boos. Fortunately, the friends in the offensive team had some conscience and did not deliberately slack off. Even so, when Lu Ke arrived, there was still at least 700 milliliters of alcohol in it - I don't know how many kinds of alcohol were mixed in.
After drinking it all, Lu Ke was almost done.
Although he was awake at this time, his aching temples and light steps made the whole world sway and toss up. The large "corpse" passing through the hall almost stepped on others several times, just like clearing mines. , I was really shocked every step of the way. I finally came outside, but I couldn't help but frown because of the golden sunshine in California. Suddenly I had the illusion that I was a vampire.
After looking around vaguely, I realized that this place was still on campus. This building was the territory of the fraternity. Those rich kids held parties here every now and then. Strictly speaking, this was a year-round building. There are parties where alcohol and weed can always be found.
The problem is not the fraternity, but...their celebration party yesterday was on the other side of the school. How on earth did he travel across the entire campus to get here?
After standing there in a daze for a moment, the vampire finally adapted to the sunlight. Lu Ke looked down and made sure that he was not radiating the light of diamonds like the hero of "Twilight", and then he took a step forward with peace of mind. I hesitated for a moment, should I run home or take a taxi?
Then there was an urge to vomit in his stomach, which made Lu Ke decide on the latter without hesitation.
He took out his mobile phone, booked a taxi, and then wandered towards the taxi parking lot in front of the school - the United States is a country on wheels. According to the survey, the average person owns two cars. Sixteen-year-old You can take a driver's license test. This situation is especially true in Los Angeles. The city's public transportation is ineffective, taxis are of no use, and private cars are the mainstream. Therefore, you can find a taxi just by waving at the roadside. This is a rare event in Los Angeles and you must make a reservation in advance.
The reserved taxi took about fifteen minutes to arrive smoothly. Lu Ke got into the taxi and staggered all the way back to the apartment.
Without any surprise, both Jay and Logan were not at home. They didn't know where they were drunk, and they didn't know when they would be able to find their way home. Lu Ke first went to the bathroom to take a shower and changed out of his sore clothes; then he simply made a sandwich and two scrambled eggs to soothe his hungry stomach.
After feeling the warmth in my stomach, the real feeling became real. The smile on the corner of my mouth couldn't help but rise again, and I hummed a tune softly. The sunlight shining through the window became more beautiful at this moment.
Out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost eleven o'clock. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. Lu Ke felt that he had forgotten something just now, but now he finally remembered: Dad and Mom! They are still staying in the hotel where they are staying and will drive back to San Francisco in the afternoon. He actually completely forgot about it!
After the game last night, Lu Ke only had time to say hello to them and didn't even have time to chat before joining the carnival.
After quickly disposing of the sandwich, Lu Ke went downstairs and found his old Chevrolet in the parking lot. In the past six months, Lu Ke had become accustomed to running to and from school. Only when he went to the supermarket every week or every other week did the Chevrolet come in handy, and he had almost completely lost his favor.
When he was sixteen, Lu Ke, like most of his classmates, successfully obtained his driver's license. For this reason, the birthday gift Lu Zhengze gave him was also very "American." It was a second-hand car that belonged to Lu Ke. car. Lu Zhengze chose this navy blue Chevrolet. It only cost 15,000 US dollars. The price was very reasonable and it was very stable on the road. When Lu Ke came to Los Angeles to attend college, he went on the road alone in this car.
After starting the engine, we left the apartment in a smooth manner and arrived at Chinatown in the lower city. After parking the car, Lu Ke was about to enter the hotel when his cell phone rang in his pants pocket. It was Jiang Youning, "Mom, I'm here, I'm here." Lu Ke said hurriedly, his irritable look completely gone. His arrogance and strength showed the true face of a young man. "I'm sorry, I got up too late. You haven't left yet, have you?"
"Xiao Ke, Xiao Ke." Jiang Youning chuckled and shouted twice, stopping Lu Ke from apologizing later, "We are having brunch at the restaurant across the street, don't go to the hotel, come directly. "
"Across the street?" Lu Ke turned around, looked around, and then saw the restaurant across the street. He stood alone in the parking lot with a clear goal, "I saw you, I'll come over now. ." After hanging up the phone, Lu Ke walked over quickly and was about to cross the road when he noticed a warning look from the window. He quickly braked and returned to the roadside honestly, going around to I just walked past the zebra crossing next to me.
Pushing open the glass door of the restaurant, there was a jingling sound. Lu Ke saw his parents sitting in the booth at a glance, with a relaxed and comfortable smile on his face, and he waved to him happily.
Jiang Youning waved to Lu Ke, and before his son sat down, he asked with concern, "Are you hungry? It's not long until lunch. You can have a full brunch."
breakfast? A sandwich with scrambled eggs and milk, does that count? But looking at his mother's earnest eyes, Lu Ke nodded with a smile, "I'm really hungry. I almost didn't eat anything last night..." Lu Ke paused as he spoke. He seemed to have leaked something. What a secret.
Lu Zhengze deliberately kept a straight face and said seriously, "It's better to know some things by yourself."
Lu Ke nodded honestly, but Jiang Youning didn't hold it back. The smile on her lips couldn't help but rise. However, she didn't expose her husband's trick. She waved to the waiter and ordered breakfast for Lu Ke. Said, "Congratulations! Congratulations, your dream finally came true. Not only did you stand on the field, but you also won the Rose Bowl! I knew you could do it!" Turning his head and looking at his silent husband, Jiang Youning He raised his elbow and bumped Lu Zhengze's arm, "What do you think?"
Lu Zhengze cleared his throat and recalled his gaffe last night. He seemed a little embarrassed and jerky. Finally, he said seriously, "The performance is excellent, but you can't be too proud. You have to keep up the good work..." He was only halfway through the words. As soon as he finished the sentence, the elder's attitude came out again. Lu Zhengze also realized it. He couldn't help clearing his throat again, abruptly interrupted the conversation and changed the topic, "Always, last night was really wonderful! This is what you should do Got it."
Lu Zhengze said in a firm tone, looking at his son in front of him. From a babbling baby, he became an upright man in the blink of an eye. He realized his dream with his own hands and efforts.
He knows that as a father's responsibility, he must tell his children that there is a gap between dreams and reality after all. While embracing dreams, you must also be down-to-earth, otherwise it will be like a castle in the air or a mirage. It is beautiful, but the higher the expectations, The disappointment is getting worse.
However, Lu Zhengze didn't want to kill this dream. Not because he's an idealist, but because he's seen the entire process, from day one. He knows how much hard work and sweat Lu Ke has put in to get to where he is today, better than anyone else.
"You deserve this!" Lu Zhengze thought so sincerely.
