In a cafe at the main entrance of Beijing Media University, Lei Nuo was sitting opposite a delicate girl with dimples. If it was an ordinary date, the man would be more attentive and take the initiative to start a conversation. However, Reynolds didn't seem to be interested. With an impatient expression, he asked,"Song Meina, why did you call me out this time?”
As he spoke, his eyes were glued to his phone. His hands were never idle.
"Bastard, is Song Mei someone you can call?”The girl raised her eyebrows and glared at him."I'm your cousin, and I'm your senior. Remember, don't be rude.”
"Pfft!!!" Reynolds had a look of disdain on his face. He didn't even raise his head and replied without the slightest bit of concern,"You're still a senior? She had already graduated a year ago.”
"Kid, are you itching for a beating?" The girl was furious. She kicked the other party with her legs crossed under the table and said angrily,"Be careful, or I'll tell aunt and uncle that you bullied me!”
"Go!" Reynolds waved his hand. He didn't really care.
Seeing that her threat did not work, the girl was angry but helpless. She rolled her eyes and shook her head to give up. She said,"I'm not going to talk about anything else with you. Seriously, I'm going to retire from that house. Do you want to stay there?”
"Let me make this clear first. I can't help you pay the rent.”
"No!" Reynolds didn't even raise his eyebrows and directly rejected him."You don't have any pretty girls there. They might even be very dirty.”
"Very dirty? I @#%@!" Mei Na was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She wanted to tear this cousin in front of her with her hands. Her face was covered in frost as she said,"If you don't want to go, then don't mock me.”
"No wonder you don't have a girlfriend.”
She was furious. Ever since they were young, she had never won in their usual bickering. She was always provoked by the other party's venomous tongue and was helpless. In the end, it would often end with national curses.
Seeing that his cousin was no longer nagging, Reynolds felt a sense of peace. He played with his phone and scrolled through his Moments, feeling even more lost in his emotions. Suddenly, he saw the video of his old high school classmate's Moments. His eyes immediately widened and his face was filled with excitement.
"F * ck, f * ck! I knew this kid could do it.”
He was so excited that his clenched right hand subconsciously pounded the table, causing the surrounding customers and Mei Na to frown. However, he did not care about this. He opened the high school group chat with a smile and confirmed it through his old classmates. Then, he made a call.
"F * ck, do you know that you want to be rich? You're going to hit the jackpot!"
As soon as the call connected, Reynolds shouted excitedly as if he had won the lottery.
"You all know?"
A lazy voice sounded from the other end, as if he had not woken up.
"Of course, everyone in the country knows about it. Just now, your friends reposted your wonderful review of the entire scene. You're very popular, don't you know that?”Reynolds was still very excited. It was as if he was the person in the video and he was the one who was popular. He was sincerely happy for the other party."You really did it. I knew you could do it!”
He spoke incoherently, but the other party still understood and replied in a sickly tone,"This is only the first round. The information is not symmetrical. They don't know my name, so they let me get so many points."”
"Don't be happy too early. I might go down again in the next match. I might not even have the chance to play and be terminated.”
"Alright, I've studied a lot. You can't lie to me.”Reynolds said in an unquestionable tone,"Watch closely. If you perform so well in the next game, you can at least get a basic salary until the end of the season.”
"If the later matches don't fall apart, maybe next year's salary will be the highest.”Reynolds chuckled and revealed a sinister expression."If that's the case, you've successfully bypassed the Arenas clause and gotten the top salary as a free agent.”
"You haven't participated in the draft. You're not in the first round or even the second round. You're just a free agent who came out of the NBA. You didn't sign a rookie contract. You're just a short-term job. You're completely…"
He was interrupted by the other party. The other party said,"You're thinking too much. A non-draft player is still considered a rookie in his first year. However, I can't be sure. I don't know the terms of the alliance. In my case, I can only be considered a free agent. The contract signed by a free agent doesn't seem to have any rookie contract restrictions.”
"We'll see when the time comes. It's too early to say this now.”
Tang Fei wanted to catch up on his sleep again, but Reynolds did not let him go. Instead, he said fiercely,""You, ever since you signed with the Westchester Knicks, you haven't contacted me much. If I didn't look at my Moments just now, I wouldn't have known that you've been signed by the Knicks.”
"I don't have time to chat on the phone. I've been training all day and I'm so tired.”Tang Fei replied with a bitter smile.
"I don't care. The next time I see you, you must treat me to a big meal.”Reynolds said through gritted teeth.
"Of course. That's all for now. I still have to sleep. There's still a competition at night.”As Tang Fei spoke, he seemed to have thought of something and said apologetically,""The money you lent me can only be returned later. As long as we sign a long-term contract, I'll return it to you!”
"Damn it, I'm not asking you for a debt, why are you in a hurry to pay me back?”Reynolds subconsciously waved his hand heroically."It's just a bit of money. There's no rush.”
They couldn't talk anymore. The two of them finally hung up. Reynolds had just put down his phone when he looked up and was immediately shocked. Unknowingly, his cousin's beautiful face had appeared less than ten centimeters away from him. If he had not reacted quickly, he would have bumped into her.
"What are you doing?" Reynolds turned his body away like a god of plague, looking askance at the other party with a look of disdain.
"Who were you talking to on the phone just now? Is it Tang Fei?"
Mei's beautiful face was full of smiles, and her expression seemed to be a little…Flattery.
Yes, it was flattery. It was as if he wanted to get something, and he had never shown a fawning expression.
