Chapter 418, Game 3 System Mission: 3-pointer!
Wang Xiucheng knew that Sophia's physical strength should be okay, after all, she had been thrown into a military camp by Stallone for training and had learned self-defense techniques and the like.
But today, Sofia would get tired after walking for a while and would want to find a place to sit down.
Wang Xiucheng didn't know if she was really tired or just wanted to lean on him for a while.
At this point, Sofia was tired again.
She pulled Wang Xiucheng to sit on a chair in a corner and rested her head on his shoulder again.
At that moment, Sofia once again felt a sense of security, as if she had a mountain to lean on.
I only ever felt this way when I was relying on my dad.
"Do you like children?" Sofia suddenly asked.
Wang Xiucheng was startled. Was it developing that fast?
I just got a lecture from my mom, I can't give her another grandson so soon.
Moreover, Wang Xiucheng really wouldn't dare to mess with Sylvester Stallone.
I doubt my body can withstand a punch from that old man.
Don't let the fact that the old man is over 70 fool you; the fact that he was able to have a daughter at 56 tells you what kind of health he has.
"It's alright," was the only answer Wang Xiucheng could give.
“I like children,” Sofia said softly.
Wang Xiucheng pretended not to hear and did not reply.
A date with Sophia, holding hands is fine, but discussing life is out of the question, as his father, Wang Xiucheng, is someone he can't afford to offend.
"Let's go eat," Wang Xiucheng suggested.
"it is good."
The two found a restaurant nearby and ate and chatted, and the afternoon passed just like that.
After chatting all afternoon, their relationship progressed further.
At least that's how Sofia sees it.
Once they left the restaurant, the two realized it was raining outside.
Ma Wei quickly drove the car over.
Wang Xiucheng took off his trench coat and covered Sophia's head with it before helping her into the car.
Then Wang Xiucheng also got into the car.
Seeing the raindrops on each other, Wang Xiucheng and Sophia both laughed.
As they laughed, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
The next moment, Sophia grabbed Wang Xiucheng's collar, stared into his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Do you mind having a girlfriend who is 6 years older than you?"
“Perfect,” Wang Xiucheng replied in a low voice.
Upon seeing this, Ma Wei quickly opened the car door, got out, and stood in the rain, sighing.
My own older sister, sigh!
Five minutes later, Ma Wei heard Wang Xiucheng knock on the car window, so he got back into the car and drove away from the restaurant entrance.
An hour later, Wang Xiucheng drove Sophia back to her home in downtown New York.
Sophia held Wang Xiucheng's hand tightly the whole way, as if she was afraid he would disappear.
Even after arriving at the street corner near her home, Sophia sat for another five minutes before reluctantly saying goodbye to Wang Xiucheng and entering the villa in the light rain.
As soon as Sofia entered the house, she found Stallone and her two sisters already sitting at the dining table.
Dinner is ready.
"If you don't come back soon, I'm going to call you," Stallone said, then looked at his eldest daughter. "Go wash up first."
"Okay," Sophia replied, and jogged back to her room.
A dozen minutes later, Sofia, having changed her clothes, arrived at the restaurant.
"I haven't asked you yet, what did you do today?" Stallone asked.
"I went out with friends," Sophia said casually, drying her hair with a towel to hide her slightly flushed face.
"A friend?" Scarlett asked curiously, "Male or female?"
Stallone also looked up at her.
Still unable to bring herself to say Wang Xiucheng's name, Sophia smiled and said, "Of course, she's a woman."
Upon hearing this, Stallone continued cutting his steak.
Soon, the three steaks were cut and served to the three daughters.
"Your mother is in Los Angeles, so let's just make do with this for now. We'll go back to Los Angeles tomorrow, and then we can eat something better."
Stallone offered an explanation.
Upon hearing this, Sofia was stunned.
Are you going back to Los Angeles so soon?
What about the relationship that I just established with Wang Xiucheng?
"Can...can I stay in New York?" Sofia suddenly asked.
"What are you doing staying in New York?" Stallone said with dissatisfaction. "Your career is in Los Angeles."
With her head down, eating the steak she couldn't taste, Sofia stopped talking.
……
I rested for three days.
The third game between the Nets and the Knicks began as scheduled at Madison Square Garden, the Knicks' home arena.
The Nets have won the first two games. If they win this game as well, the series score will be 3-0.
At that point, it will be very difficult for the Knicks to turn the tide.
In NBA history, there has never been a team that could come back from a 0-3 deficit to win.
Such incredible comebacks have occurred in MLB and NHL.
But that's not the NBA.
Therefore, this game is the most important game of the season for both Knicks players and Knicks fans.
Therefore, many Knicks legends came to watch the game from the sidelines.
Besides Spike Lee, who attends every game, Cameron Anthony and Patrick Ewing were also present today.
Thibodeau seemed quite satisfied with Hart's performance in the last game.
Hart was once again given a starting position in this match.
At the start of the game, the Knicks started with a perfect 7-0 run, fueled by the cheers of the fans in the arena.
Nash had no choice but to call a timeout in the third minute.
There's not much to say. This timeout was just to cool down the Knicks' shooting touch and also to give their own team some time to calm down.
Wang Xiucheng, in particular, took three shots in three minutes, including two three-pointers.
But none of them made it in.
Wang Xiucheng himself was also a little puzzled, as the ball felt too cold today.
I took a sip of the special drink, and just then, the pause time was up.
Wang Xiucheng took the towel off his head and then went on the field first.
Durant was behind Wang Xiucheng, intending to remind him to pass the ball more often.
Durant had just made it to an open position, but Wang Xiucheng didn't pass it to him.
This is quite rare under normal circumstances.
In Durant's view, Wang Xiucheng's eyes were like satellites, as if he could see the entire court clearly.
Wherever there was an empty seat, Wang Xiucheng would pass it over.
But today, Wang Xiucheng seems to be acting a bit selfishly.
Durant, of course, had no idea that Wang Xiucheng's system task for today was related to three-pointers.
[Task 1: For every three-pointer made during the game, you will be awarded 100 system points.]
[Task Two: Win the match, and the final reward will be doubled.]
Back on the field, the game resumed.
Wang Xiucheng carried the ball to the frontcourt.
Then Durant saw Wang Xiucheng forcefully jump and shoot a three-pointer under Hart's defense.
Just when everyone thought the shot was going to miss, Durant started charging in, trying to grab the rebound.
But the next moment, Durant saw the basketball swish and fall into the net.
Three-pointer, finally in!
And this was the Nets' first point of the night.
Wang Xiucheng himself breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Xiucheng once missed four consecutive three-pointers in a game.
That's the highest record.
Although not many times.
However, missing three consecutive shots is quite common.
Not getting two results today is already considered a good situation.
"Keep going, come on!"
Wang Xiucheng shouted something at the Knicks players on the other side.
Sitting on the bench, Benci suddenly glared and muttered to the referee standing next to him, covering his mouth, "Technical foul, technical foul..."
