In a Western restaurant, Zhao Feiyang and Jiang Qiuyue sat opposite each other. The two of them had just escaped from the arena. Fortunately, not everyone knew Zhao Feiyang, so they went out smoothly without anyone blocking them.
Zhao Feiyang also fulfilled his previous promise and took the initiative to invite Jiang Qiuyue to eat Western food.
The luxuriously decorated restaurant looks quite high-end, especially the surrounding furnishings and layout. It feels expensive at first glance.
Jiang Qiuyue seemed a little uneasy as she sat on the chair. After hesitating for a while, she carefully asked Zhao Feiyang, "How about we change to another one? This place looks very expensive!"
Zhao Feiyang was very calm, "It doesn't matter! When I invite you to dinner, I must eat the best..."
"Actually, I'm easily satisfied... How about we just find a Chinese restaurant... I'm not picky about food..."
"No, just eat here! I just want to taste something different."
Seeing Zhao Feiyang's persistence, Jiang Qiuyue said nothing more. However, when the waiter handed over the menu, Jiang Qiuyue was shocked by the price of this restaurant when she saw the price of each dish on it.
She covered one side of her face with her hand, avoided the waiter and whispered to Zhao Feiyang, "Feiyang, why don't we find another restaurant!"
"It's so expensive here, the cheapest dish costs hundreds of dollars..."
Seeing Jiang Qiuyue like this, Zhao Feiyang couldn't help but chuckle. The Jiang Qiuyue in front of him reminded him of his ex-girlfriend Zhang Jiaying. What was completely different from Jiang Qiuyue's frugality was that Zhang Jiaying never went to cheap places.
When she went out to restaurants together, Zhang Jiaying always only chose expensive food, even if the food wasn't that delicious.
Compared with Jiang Qiuyue's thrift, Zhang Jiaying seems to be more superficial and only cares about things that look gorgeous. What's more important is that Zhao Feiyang pays for every meal, and Zhang Jiaying spends almost nothing except occasionally giving some small gifts.
This also made Zhao Feiyang realize that it is impossible for people like Zhang Jiaying to spend the rest of their lives together. She only cares about herself.
But whether they are men or boys, they also want to receive gifts, and they also want to be valued and loved.
Jiang Qiuyue refused to order, so Zhao Feiyang ordered all the restaurant's signature dishes.
When all kinds of dishes were delivered to the table, Jiang Qiuyue said nothing. However, before starting, she secretly touched her pockets and quietly counted how much money was left in her wallet.
While the two were eating, they also chatted about the previous games. At this time, Jiang Qiuyue was already very curious about Zhao Feiyang's identity.
"So...what exactly do you do?"
"Why can you beat that guy Eric? You won't tell me it's just luck, right?"
Regarding Jiang Qiuyue's inquiry, Zhao Feiyang didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zhang Jiaying's existence made him understand one thing, that is, many people will have different attitudes because of your different status.
Zhao Feiyang has a good impression of Jiang Qiuyue, and because of this, he doesn't want Jiang Qiuyue to know the truth.
If you like yourself because of your status as an NBA player, then what difference does it make about who is with you?
People are selfish and full of fantasy. Everyone hopes to be unique, at least, that is the case with the person they like.
"Actually, is it really that important what you do? That guy Eric looks very good, and he was only very good in school... If you look outside that environment, at least there are players better than him at this stage. too much......"
"Stop talking about me, let's talk about you! How have you been lately?"
Zhao Feiyang changed the topic in time and opened up the conversation. The two of them ate happily, and when they were about to pay the bill, Jiang Qiuyue grabbed Zhao Feiyang.
"Feiyang, let's be AA for this meal!"
"I don't mean anything else, I just think these dishes are not cheap... It's a pity that I don't have enough money, otherwise I would like to treat you to eat... But I still hope to help you relieve a little pressure, Your work should be just as hard..."
What Jiang Qiuyue said really surprised Zhao Feiyang.
It's rare to see such a considerate girl, especially now that the two of them are just friends, the other can consider her sincerely.
"No need! Qiuyue, I agreed to treat you to a meal. Don't worry, my salary can fully afford this meal... I am very grateful for your kindness..."
While the two were talking, a man in a suit came to the table. He was wearing restaurant work clothes, and he looked like a staff member here.
"Hello, Zhao."
"Can I take a picture with you?"
"I'm the restaurant manager. Welcome to come. I'll treat you to this order today!"
The other party had such an attitude. Most likely he had seen his game before. Zhao Feiyang did not refuse. He took the initiative to high-five and hug the other party and then took a photo with him.
"Work hard for the game against the Lakers tomorrow! I'm optimistic about you!"
The actions and words of the restaurant manager made Jiang Qiuyue stunned for a long time. She stood there and subconsciously held the few bills in her wallet with her hands. Suddenly, she felt a sense of inferiority in her heart.
After the two of them left the restaurant, Jiang Qiuyue remained silent all the way. When Zhao Feiyang dropped her off at the door of her house, she finally asked, "Feiyang, can you tell me what you do?"
Zhao Feiyang seemed to have a premonition that Jiang Qiuyue would ask this question, and told the other party what he had thought about in advance, "Are you free tomorrow?"
"Go watch a game at Staples Center!"
"Remember this phone number, and someone will bring you the tickets when you get to the door of the arena..."

University of Southern California.
In the gymnasium of the school basketball team, it was already dark at this time, and the electronic clock on the wall showed that it was 11:30. Under normal circumstances, no one is allowed to train during this period, and no players will come here.
But tonight was different. Eric Evans had been practicing hard in the arena. During this period, the security guard guarding the arena came to urge him several times, but he ignored them all!
Due to Eric Evans's status as a school team star, the other party didn't dare to do anything. He just told him that if he didn't go out by twelve o'clock, the library would be closed.
Eric Evans didn't care at all about such a threat.
He just kept running and dribbling on the court, practicing shooting, and thinking about what happened today.
But the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and in the end he just cursed out loud.
"Damn! Why is he an NBA player?"
"My cousin Steven said before that there is a nasty guy in the Lakers, but I didn't expect it to be him... Why was this bastard signed by the Heat again?"
"I won't lose to him, and neither will my cousin. The Lakers have a game tomorrow, and I'm going to cheer for my cousin. I hope he can beat that damn Chinese guy on the court... "
