Chapter 697

Chapter 697 Homecoming

A retirement ceremony full of warmth and reluctance officially ended in the media hall of the Warriors.

In this press conference, because the Warriors are playing an away game, they were not able to go home to participate in this retirement ceremony belonging to Karl Malone!

However, what Bruce said surprised the Warriors players and Malone himself. He will re-organize a grand ceremony for Malone this summer, just like when Barkley chose to leave.

At this point, an excellent power forward finally chose to leave, and a generation of superstars only have some guys who are unwilling to retire and continue to fight for their pursuit!

February in the NBA is a very special month for every fan and player!

During this month, the league will not only enter the deadline of the trading market, but also continue its annual "festival" that only fans will be excited and looking forward to, the arrival of the All-Star Game.

This year's All-Star Game will be held in Denver, which has not been seen for a long time. After the previous hosting, this city has once again returned to the fans' sight!

Apart from the situation about this year's All-Name Game, let's just say that after getting Anthony, the Nuggets quickly let people see their super talented future.

"Oh God, what do you mean you won't be on the sidelines at the All-Star Game this year?"

West stared at Bruce with an unbelievable expression, and it was really hard to understand what he said before!

"That's right, I won't be in Denver this year!"

Bruce said with a smile on his face, waved his hand and did not wait for West to ask, his face showed an unexplainable excitement and expectation, and he said in a tone full of yearning: "This year I have a It made me struggle with things to do for nearly eight years, so."

Province S, everyone's first impression is China's largest coal province. This province not only has a large amount of coal reserves, but also has countless places of interest during this period!

On this day, when the new year is about to enter the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the provincial capital airport, which was still somewhat deserted, gradually increased the number of people returning from the airport, and the number of people returning from other places was basically very small!

"Bruce, is this your hometown?"

At the airport pick-up gate, Charlize Theron turned her head tightly wrapped and said to Bruce, who was not much better dressed than her, that she felt unreasonable in her heart when she came to this city that she was not familiar with before. A burst of excitement and slight hesitation.

"That's right!!"

Staring at the extremely friendly faces, and noticing their local accent that made Bruce dream of, his tone could not help but have such a trembling sound, and his mood was extremely excited!

"Uh... so, why don't we get out of here first?"

Charlize Theron, who was always paying attention to her surroundings, saw that some people were already paying attention to them, so she hurriedly pulled Bruce, who was a little dazed.

"Oh that's fine!"

When he came back to his senses, Bruce noticed the curious and probing gazes of some passengers at a glance. He hurriedly dragged Charlize Theron towards the center of the hall. He didn't want to be recognized here!

It turned out that after the Warriors gradually entered a good stage, Bruce could no longer bear the urge to return to his homeland. Even though the All-Star Game was about to start, he still had no hesitation.

Now, Bruce, who has returned to the country, after finally discussing with Charlize Theron, because the child is too young and the winter in the northern city is really too cold, they did not choose to bring little Ares back.

"Wow, there are so many Chinese here!"

Sitting in the rest area in the hall, Charlize Theron looked around like a curious baby. She could swear to God that this was the period of time she had seen the most Chinese people in the past few days. She had never thought about it before. But she was able to come to this country that she longed for, and she never thought that she could meet so many Chinese people!

"Huh... are you finally back?"

Bruce calmed down for a period of time, but the excitement that had been there before gradually calmed down!

Before, they flew back to the capital directly from Los Angeles on an international flight, and then Bruce told Charlize Theron with regret that this season is not suitable for visiting the Great Wall. After adjusting, the two of them came directly to Province S!

"Phew, well, what do we do now?"

Charlize Theron seems to have satisfied her curiosity, and she has gradually adapted to this difference when she can see Chinese people all the time.

"Now? Now, of course we are looking for a hotel to adjust and go back to my hometown!"

Bruce stood up with a smile, with a gleam of homely feeling in his eyes, pulled Charlize Theron and walked out of the airport!

In 2005, Province S, even though it was the largest coal capital in China, was not as prosperous as it was in the previous life because only some people got rich first and various constructions could not keep up with it!

Walking out of the airport lobby, Bruce directly waved for a taxi. After the two got into the car, they named a hotel and drove there!

"Sir, did you just come back?"

It seems that taxi drivers all over the world are very talkative. Following his question, he chatted with Bruce affectionately!

Half an hour later, when the car arrived at the hotel, Bruce waved goodbye to the taxi driver with a smile on his face, and then walked towards the hotel with a somewhat tired Charlize Theron!

In his previous life, Bruce, who had a very embarrassing status, was able to finally enter a second-rate team in the provincial capital as an assistant to the general manager, which made him very popular.

After entering the hotel and getting the room card, Bruce and Charlize Theron were surprised at the front desk, even with a hint of surprise, they walked directly to the elevator room.

"He. They are Americans???"

The front desk lady stammered and turned her head to her colleagues, thinking of the two ID documents that they had never seen before, this directly confused them.

Taking the elevator all the way to the room on the sixth floor of the hotel, Charlize Theron, who was a bit of a cleanliness, looked at it carefully first, and then fell on the bed, saying with emotion: "Although we I came in a bit of a hurry, but after what I saw and heard along the way, this is really an interesting country!"

"Of course!"

Bruce took off his coat with a smile. Under the hotel's sufficient heating, he didn't feel any cold!

"Bruce, what's your hometown like?"

Charlize Theron suddenly turned over curiously, with her right hand under her head, and asked curiously.

"Is it my hometown?"

Hearing Charlize Theron's inquiry, Bruce subconsciously sat on the seat on the left side of the TV, with a hint of joy and memory in his expression, and then slowly explained to her!

Bruce's hometown is in a small county with a population of less than 20 in the province of S. Even though the main street there can be walked from beginning to end in only 15 minutes, he still misses this county very much.

There are no high-rise buildings, and there are no shops that provide people with various food and entertainment. Bruce thought of returning to his hometown in his previous life, and looked at the residential areas that rose from the ground and the noisy building that was built for nearly five years. He can't help but feel a lot of emotion when he sees a national-level museum!

Charlize Theron was fascinated listening to Bruce tell a very interesting thing, even though it all seemed so simple to her, but from Bruce's words, she could still hear this guy's love for him. The longing for her hometown and a trace of entanglement and bitterness that she couldn't understand!

"Aha, this is my hometown, it's so simple!"

When Bruce said the last, his mood was relaxed for no reason, and he turned his head to look at the smiling Charlize Theron, with an unusually happy smile on his face.
