"Boss, two rounds?"
"Boss, two more rounds?"
"Boss, don't go. Are you afraid of a rookie like me? Do you dare to play the last two rounds?”
In his sleep, Chen Hao's voice kept appearing in Kobe's mind, as well as the burning gaze that had deeply affected him. His body twitched involuntarily, and he immediately woke up from his bed.
"Darling, what's wrong?"
Vanessa, who had always had a mediocre sleep quality, felt the movement around her. She immediately turned around and looked at Kobe with a concerned expression.
" I'm fine. Go back to sleep. I'm going to the arena to train."
Without waiting for a response, Kobe got up from his warm bed and went to the bathroom.
Vanessa immediately woke up. She picked up her phone by the bed and looked at the time. She was very surprised.
"Training at 4 am again?”
Thinking about Kobe's completely different schedule and how tired he was every time he came home, Vanessa, who was already in a bad mood, was not in a good mood. Some green images involuntarily appeared in her mind.
Before she could think too much about it, Kobe had already finished washing up. Without saying goodbye, he walked out of the room with a straight face.
Vanessa was left alone at the head of the bed, staring at her sexy body and the empty bed. She was in a daze.
"Am I no longer attractive to you?”
Then, he remembered a piece of news he had read on the Internet. It said that after a woman gave birth to a child, no matter how perfectly she took care of her body, her attractiveness to her husband would decrease to varying degrees. The probability of the latter cheating would increase in a straight line.
This reminded her of a while ago, when she had proposed to give Kobe a son, but was rejected. She also remembered the scene of Kobe's obvious absent-mindedness when the two of them were intimate. Vanessa felt terrible.
"Bastard, if you dare to cheat on me, I won't let you off!”
Kobe drove quickly to the training center. He didn't know that his backyard was on fire. At that moment, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to defeat Chen Hao as soon as possible so that he wouldn't have the idea of challenging him again.
During this period of time, he had been fighting Chen Hao every morning, noon, and night, regardless of the weather. Kobe found that he was almost possessed. When he ate, slept, and pooped, and even when he was lovey-dovey with his beloved wife, Vanessa, the scene of his match with Chen Hao would appear in his mind.
And that handsome but hateful face.
If this continued, Kobe felt like he would go crazy.
"We must defeat this rookie, we must!”
As the scoring champion of the league and one of the few top superstars, Kobe said that if he could not even convince a rookie, it would be too bad. This kind of thing could not happen.
Skillfully bypassing the sleeping security guard, Kobe entered the stadium and heard the familiar dribbling sound.
" Rookie, your willpower isn't bad," Kobe said coolly.
Hearing this, Chen Hao did not indulge Kobe at all. He said bluntly,""Boss, I've been waiting for you for more than half an hour. Come on, old rules. Let's have two rounds of warm-up first, then we'll start training. I'm different from before today ~"
" You're still far from it, rookie." Kobe raised his eyebrows.
No matter what he thought before, in front of Chen Hao, he had to maintain his attitude as the boss of the team, as arrogant and powerful as ever.
Before long, a series of dribbling and footsteps could be heard in the court. From time to time, there would be the sound of a basketball entering the net or hitting the basket.
Kobe, who thought he would be able to easily bully Chen Hao like he always did, suddenly realized that Chen Hao's defensive ability had improved by a whole new level. Even someone as strong as Black Mamba could not break through and score easily.
It's only been a week and he's already made such great progress. This guy has great defensive potential, Kobe thought.
In his heart, there was a trace of relief besides the previous frustration.
The lineup of the new season was only average, but if they added Chen Hao, who was good at defense on the outside and had made rapid progress, the overall strength would undoubtedly rise to a higher level.
The key was still Chen Hao's rate of improvement. If he maintained his current pace, Kobe felt that Chen Hao would become an indispensable defensive barrier for the team's perimeter at the start of the new season, and he would be able to focus more on the scoring end.
He didn't have to be distracted to defend.
As the leading scorer in the league, Kobe believed in his own judgment!
The more Kobe thought about it, the more he felt like he had a chance. His previous gloominess was swept away. The way he looked at Chen Hao became much friendlier, but his offense became even more violent.
After nearly a week of high-intensity matches, Chen Hao had successfully saved enough money to level up. He had upgraded his B-class skill, Iron Gate, to Level 2, and his defensive ability had risen to Level 75. Soon, he could not take it anymore and was scored many points by Kobe.
However, with his current defensive ability, he was no longer a nobody. He quickly successfully defended against Kobe's attack.
However, Kobe, who was in high spirits, quickly hammered him on the defensive end. He lost the opportunity to take the initiative to attack and became a defender again.
"Your excellent ball control ability was wasted. Your offensive ability is really disappointing.”
"Boss, I'll be sad if you say that ~"
"Why can't I see that you're sad at all?"
"Can we still chat?"
“......”
Amidst the laughter, it took an hour for the two of them to end the two matches in the morning.
Chen Hao's 20 minutes longer than usual clearly showed Chen Hao's improvement. He had become more persistent. The score was not to be mentioned. Chen Hao, who had a relatively simple offensive ability, was hammered by Kobe, who was going all out to defend.
Black Mamba was able to enter the best defensive lineup more than once not only because of his popularity and influence, but also because his defense was indeed the best in the league!
After an hour of intense confrontation, Chen Hao was so tired that he didn't want to move. He sat on the sidelines like a salted fish, watching Kobe with admiration and envy, who had only rested for a short while before he started training.
Kobe had become one of the few superstars in the league not only because of his first-class physical talent, but also because of his diligence.
After watching Kobe's masochistic training process, Chen Hao expressed that he should just spend money to buy skills. If he were to train at that intensity, he would probably be paralyzed in a few days.
Being able to endure high-intensity training was actually a kind of talent.
Unfortunately, Chen Hao did not have such talent.
But it didn't matter. Although he didn't have it, he could buy it.
By the time Kobe finished his morning training, Chen Hao had also finished his rest. After warming up again, the stadium was filled with the sound of an intense confrontation between the two, which made the security guard who was watching from the dark feel very gratified.
As a die-hard fan of the Los Angeles Clippers, the security guard had been working in the training center since he was 25 years old. This was the first time he had seen such a hardworking basketball player. He thought Kobe was unique, but who knew that there would be a second player like him this season.
It was truly delightful.
" The new season is worth looking forward to," the security uncle thought.
It took nearly an hour for the afternoon match to end. Because Kobe had been practicing for the whole morning, his physical strength had not fully recovered. In the second match at noon, Chen Hao scored seven points, but he still lost in the end.
The harvest was extremely bountiful.
After improving their defensive abilities, Chen Hao and Kobe would need to fight for an average of 26 rounds in a game. Chen Hao could earn an average of 3500 dollars per round, and 91000 dollars per game. Six games a day, that would be 546000 dollars.
In just four days, Chen Hao would be able to level up the Iron Gate skill. He hoped to max out this skill before the start of the new season. He might even have the money to buy other skills.
Chen Hao's gaze toward Kobe softened as he thought about this.
Instead, it startled Kobe, who subconsciously took a few steps away from Chen Hao.
They had lunch together in a restaurant around the arena. After replenishing their energy, the two of them returned to the arena.
Kobe started his afternoon training. Chen Hao did not idle around either. He practiced shooting on another court.
It couldn't be helped. One person couldn't practice defense.
With Kobe, the training master, guiding him from time to time, Chen Hao's shooting movements were corrected and his shooting speed was significantly faster. However, his shooting rate could not be greatly improved in a short period of time unless he bought a skill.
However, compared to scoring, the efficiency of the defensive end was obviously faster. In addition, the Los Angeles team did not lack scorers. Chen Hao was not particularly persistent in scoring, so he successfully focused on improving his defensive ability.
In the afternoon, after Kobe finished his daily training and rested for a while, Chen Hao walked up to him.
Kobe was naturally very clear about this. He nodded immediately, and the two's match in the afternoon began.
Chen Hao earned nearly 200,000 yuan in an hour. It was faster than robbing a bank. Although it was a little tiring, Chen Hao expressed that he could bear it.
"I'm really a hardworking little bee ~" Chen Hao thought to himself.
After tidying up his basketball equipment, he was about to leave the court, but before he could turn around, Kobe's voice reached his ears."
"Rookie, come to my house for dinner tonight ~"
"Boss, how can I do this?”
Chen Hao looked at Kobe's cool expression. Although he said that, the look of anticipation on his face betrayed his true thoughts.
Kobe found it funny.
After these few days of intense exchanges, he had completely acknowledged Chen Hao's strength.
This was a rookie who could be of great help to him and the team in the new season. He might even reach a higher level in the future. Even if it did not involve these, just the time he accompanied Chen Hao during training and the friendship he had with him during the match was enough to invite Chen Hao home for a meal.
Kobe did not hide his approval and love for Chen Hao.
However, the look in his eyes made Chen Hao feel like he was about to be locked up by a powerful man. He suddenly didn't want to go to Kobe's house, but he remembered that Kobe had invited him. Moreover, he had a wife and a daughter now. Most importantly, his wife was so beautiful.
En, Chen Hao suddenly decided to befriend Kobe as a brother.
