I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 442 I Came to America to Play Basketball (Part [-])
On the morning of January 1, Ada woke up from her sleep and looked at the alarm clock next to the bed. It was only 22 minutes before the alarm went off.

Ada turned over and wanted to sleep for a while, sleep in winter is always particularly good.

But after only sleeping for less than a minute, she forced herself to turn over and get up, and rubbed her face on the bed to wake herself up.

"I can't sleep anymore, Ada, you have to get up, there are important things to do today."

"Mr. Smart is a person with a strong sense of time, don't be late, get up!"

She got up immediately, got dressed, washed up in the bathroom, and then the alarm clock by the bed rang.

It's 4:1 a.m. Pacific time, and it's still dark in January, and the city hasn't woken up yet.

Sure, a certain Lakers player might be enjoying the beauty of the early morning hours in Los Angeles.

Ada came out of the room, made some food in the kitchen, and woke up the sleeping dad upstairs.

Marcella Antolini came down the stairs in her pajamas. Seeing her daughter getting up so early to work in the kitchen, she scratched her head and asked, "Ada, what time is it? Are you going to work so early now?"

Ada took out the bread from the toaster, spread butter on it, and put the fried eggs on the plate.

"Today I'm going to pick up someone at the airport, the plane at 05:30... I have to hurry up, it's too late."

"My God, why are you still responsible for picking up people? Don't you work in the media department? Your manager asked you to do this kind of chore again?"

"Dad, it's still dark, why don't you go to bed for a while?"

"Yeah, you also know that my daughter is going to work hard for someone before dawn! You have to get up early and come back late at some time. Are you sold to the team?"

"Dad~ This is my job, I always have to work? Why do you always have so many opinions on my job...By the way, where are my leather shoes? Where did my leather shoes go?"

"You mean those high heels? I threw them away, don't you think it's uncomfortable to wear them too high? It's not good for your feet. And you are the secretary of the basketball team, why do you wear those shoes, You should wear sneakers, sneakers suit you best."

"Dad! Those are my shoes! God, why did you throw my stuff away? It's unreasonable. Forget it, I won't argue with you, I'm leaving. You go back to sleep, I'm leaving !"

Ada hurriedly finished her breakfast, took a pair of old high-heeled shoes and put them on, took her briefcase and drove away.

Marcella followed behind, holding a thick woolen coat in her hand, and rushed out the door, shouting: "Wear a thick coat! It's cold! Wear more...Shet..."

Ada's car had disappeared into the morning mist, leaving only a string of red shadows.

Marcella shook her head and murmured: "Girls are outside, why don't you wear more!"

In fact, Ada's clothes are not revealing, just very decent business attire.

It's just that in Dad's heart, the daughter always wears too little clothes.

In Marcella's heart, Ada has always been the sweet, well-behaved Italian girl in the past.

She was very obedient when she was a child, and she would listen to what her father said. Until she graduated from university, Ada followed Marcella's teachings and studied hard.

This is not an easy task in the United States. Too many girls enter the rebellious period early, skipping classes, falling in love, fooling around, and some even touch drugs.

The daughters of many of Marcella's friends caused headaches for the family. At this time, Marcella always smiled and said nothing, thinking that her daughter is obedient, and she will be a beautiful traditional Italian girl in the future.

But since Ida started working with the Los Angeles Clippers, everything has changed.

Ada is not so obedient, she always has her own ideas, always say "Mr. Smart XXX".

Marcella originally thought, does Ada like Smart and will fall in love with him?
In order to help Smart, he also used resources to affect the results of the Clippers game.

It's a pity that Smart didn't appreciate it, but hooked up with Hollywood female stars, completely ignoring his daughter.

Seeing that her daughter was a little sad and depressed, Marcella once persuaded Ada to quit her job and stop working on the Clippers.

Ada didn't listen at all, but worked harder, leaving early and returning late every day, and communicating with her father less and less.

The intimate little padded jacket in the past began to leak air, and Marcella felt unbearable in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

Women are not allowed to stay, Marcella knows this truth.

But why does Ada like Smart's little yellow skin?
He has always hoped that Ada can marry an Italian, and she will take care of her husband and children at home in the future, and be a good wife like his mother, a traditional Italian woman.

Now it seems that she is drifting away on another road.

At this time, Ada drove through the morning fog in Los Angeles and headed for Los Angeles International Airport.

Her task today is to pick up the airport. A basketball kid from China is going to the United States for trial training and living for a period of time.

Ada wants to solve the problem of this young man's life in the United States as he did when he was Min Congda's life assistant.

For the 05:30 flight, Ada arrived at the airport at five o'clock, and she never dared to be careless about the time.

After parking the car, she waited patiently in the departure hall, holding a plastic sign in her hand.

The logo of the Los Angeles Clippers is printed on it, as well as two large Chinese characters: Lu Yuan.

"Lu-Yuan~"

Ada looked at the profile of this Chinese boy named Lu Yuan, and whispered his name.

The child in the photo is very young, 15 years old, just in high school, from a small town in southern China.

The height is only 183. He participated in the training camp organized by the Clippers in the summer of 11. He showed outstanding talent in the training camp. He was selected and came to the United States for further study.

For Chinese players, Ada is most impressed with Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi played for the Clippers for a while, but he didn't perform much at the end of the bench.

In the impression of most Americans, Chinese players can only come and play on the inside.

Moreover, except for Yao Ming, the inside players are all soft and slow, and they cannot be compared with American players at all.

Not to mention outside players, Sun Yue once played for the Lakers for a season, and he couldn't adapt to the intensity of the NBA at all. He was a bench among the benches.

But Mr. Smart ordered that this hometown friend be treated well. Maybe it really is a rare basketball genius from China.

At 05:30, the flight from Shanghai to Los Angeles landed, and Ada was waiting at the exit with a sign.

Most of the passengers on this plane were Chinese tourists who came to the United States from China, so all the people who came out were Chinese faces.

For Ada, it was really not easy to distinguish the person she was looking for, as people would be face-blind to foreigners.

The tourists were a little sleepy because of the long flight, and many of them were yawning.

At this time, Ada noticed a young man looking around with his eyeballs rolling around, looking full of energy among a group of tired people.

"It's him!" Ada immediately sounded in her heart.

"Hey! Lu! Lu!" Ada shouted, waving at the boy.

When the boy heard the voice and saw the sign in Ada's hand, his eyes lit up.

He ran to Ada through the crowd, checked the sign again, and said, "Hi, I'm Lu Yuan, from China, and I'm coming to America to play basketball."
