Chapter 262 What you want to get, you have to give up(2/2)
Then we talked about Lin Ying and Brooke.
Speaking of which, because of summer training and the World Championships, he and Brooke didn't spend much time together this summer, and they seemed to have less contact recently.
"Ying, do you know what my biggest insight was from my last love experience?"
"Um?"
"Whatever you want to gain, you have to give up."
Durant said with emotion.
Lin Ying smiled bitterly and shook his head after hearing this.
Falling in love turns people into philosophers!
But this may be because first love makes people miss it more.
It will be nice to wait for Durant to talk to more people later.
…
After getting off the hot air balloon, Lin Ying and Brooke made a video call.
The relationship between the two is still very strong.
But it may be that we haven't seen each other for a long time, and there is an indescribable feeling.
You should just wait until you return to the United States.
Because he had to attend some activities in China, his return to the United States was a few days later than expected.
By the time I actually saw Brooke, it was already a week later.
In Lin Yingfei's Los Angeles, the two went for a walk on Santa Monica Beach.
While walking, we talked about what happened in the past, and the summer sea breeze was very cool and comfortable.
"Lin, thank you."
After sitting on the long chair where he had been sitting before, Brooke suddenly spoke.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Ying was a little confused by this sudden thank you.
"I am ready to return to the UK to develop."
Brooke continued.
"That's a good thing."
Lin Ying had the strange feeling again that she had when she was making video porridge.
"Lin, what I mean is that I am going back to England."
Brooke continued.
"Aren't you coming back?"
Lin Ying finally knew what it was. Like most people, they seemed to have failed to move from the passionate love stage to the next stage.
"It's not your fault. Do you remember what I said before about wanting a child?"
Lin Ying nodded, remembering that it happened half a year ago.
"At that time, I really wanted to have a child, and then we would get married...
But during the time we were apart, one day suddenly I saw the wrinkles at the corners of my eyes, and I realized that I am a full 9 years older than you.
It would be too selfish of me to do that when you are still young when I am old."
There was deep love in Brooke's eyes.
"I don't mind. If it were possible, I wouldn't have agreed to it in the first place."
Lin Ying's tone was firm.
Although he has no relationship experience before, he has indeed thought about this issue.
Because as a time traveler, you cannot look at this problem with ordinary people's eyes.
His mental age is about the same as Brooke's.
Since he made the choice in the first place, he was aiming to fall in love and get married.
Age is not an issue.
Hearing this, Brooke couldn't help but hugged Lin Ying tightly.
…
So in the end, we broke up.
After putting Brooke on the plane the next day, Lin Ying was still a little confused.
Although it may be because we haven't seen each other much this past summer, it feels like he hasn't lost anything.
I still feel a little bad when I think about my first love ending like this.
"Kevin, I'm in Los Angeles, come over and drink with me."
One phone call and Durant arrived in Los Angeles in the afternoon.
The two of them found a bar near the sea and drank wine while enjoying the wind.
"What do you think is going on with us? It feels like we are going through the same thing, and everything is told to me a little later than you."
Lin Ying drank a drink and still couldn't help but sigh.
"Ying, do you know what is the most important thing in love?"
Durant seems to have really become a philosopher.
"What?"
"accompany."
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment.
This sentence seems to have touched something.
Thinking back on the experience with Brooke, when they could still find time to be together, they were always in love.
But this summer because of summer training and the World Championships, they spent very little time together.
"So I said before, whatever you want to get, you have to give up something."
When Durant said this again, Lin Ying somewhat understood.
They, professional basketball players, are filled with games and training after the season starts.
In addition, they are training freaks and have to practice more, so they have very little time to spare.
Then during the offseason, they still train in the summer and compete in the World Championships, which means they don't have much time to spend with their other half.
If you want to have a good relationship, you have to give up some things, such as summer training with Kobe, such as the World Championships.
However, they will not give up.
"And Ying, don't take it too seriously. As for what Brooke said, didn't she think about it before talking to you? I don't think she just feels that falling in love with you is novel. Falling in love is not getting married. The novelty has passed.
It will fade away if it is gone.”
Damn it, you don’t know how to speak, please speak less, it hurts my heart!
"So what's the point of falling in love? Just have fun and fall in love with the one you like. We're not short of money now. Are we still worried about the lack of women?"
Master, I understand!
However, Enlightenment's direction is not quite right. This is the direction of evolving into a scumbag.
Lin Ying nodded.
It's not that he agrees with what Durant said, but it's not that simple for professional athletes to find a wife.
At least I can't look for actors or anything.
Use his clairvoyance to look around and you will see that the NBA players who end up getting along well are basically women who are relatively weak and need to be relied on.
But any kind of celebrity marriage is not for marriage, it is the most classic stamp collecting operation of the Kardashian family.
Even if you get married, you will basically have to break up in the end. The most classic one is the 72-day wedding of Kim Kardashian and Humphries.
Oh yes, and the tragic experience of Quentin Richardson.
Ah, Q was married to Brandi Norwood back then, but it turned out that Brandi had been married two years ago! He had remarried!
"Your little assistant is pretty good. Didn't he follow you all the time before? You didn't see him much when you went to Phoenix?"
Durant then asked.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter if I'm single, just focus on the game. I want to defend my title next season!"
Lin Ying did not answer, but thought of Durant's heroic performance after the breakup.
Chapter completed!
