850. Heartbroken Stockton (Part 2: 4.5K)(1/2)
"Brother, where are we going next?"
"Spokane, Washington, to meet the real general."
"Oh oh oh, it must be Stockton! Juanjuan knows, does your brother want to learn skills from Stockton?"
"Yes, but we have to go to Seattle first and then transfer..."
After Zue stayed at home for half a month on the 16th, he went to Chengdu to find Sun Ce. After Sun Ce finished his sneaker endorsement on the 17th, he stayed at home from the 18th to the 23rd, occasionally
I go out to shoot commercials and stay at home most of the time.
On the 24th, Sun Ce and Zue set off to Shanghai together and rested for one night. On the evening of the 25th, they took a flight to Seattle with Zue, and then transferred to Spokane, Washington.
I have already made an appointment to visit Stockton on the 28th.
…
After a long journey, Sun Ce and Zu Goose checked into a hotel in Spokane at around 11 a.m. on July 27, Western Time. After a night's rest, the next morning, Sun Ce took Zu Goose with him.
Buy good gifts at home and visit Stockton.
On the way to Stockton's house, Sun Ce and his chatty sister started chatting.
"Brother, brother, who is better, you or Stockton?"
"He is almost 50, so I must be better."
"Juanjuan asked him when he was playing ball!"
"If we're the same age, I'm definitely more powerful."
"Then why does my brother still want to learn from him?"
"If I don't study hard and make progress, I won't be as good as him when I'm the same age in a few years."
"I see. By the way, brother, I heard that Stockton gave birth to 6 children. How many do you plan to have in the future?"
"Ah? You changed the topic too quickly!"
"Juanjuan wants to know, and how tall is my brother's baby? Tell Juanjuan!"
"Well, I asked someone to do a fortune telling. Kobe will probably have 5 daughters, and I will have 6."
"Brother, why do you like to compare everything with Kobe?"
"He is the greatest player in active service. Of course I have to compare with him. A three-peat, and then a two-peat. Apart from Jordan and Russell, is there anyone who can compare with him? Of course I have to treat him as an opponent.
OK."
"elder brother."
"Ah? Why didn't you ask all of a sudden?"
"Does the fact that you are talking about having more daughters have anything to do with how many championships Kobe has won?"
"It doesn't matter, but I just don't like it when I see how powerful he is at giving birth to a daughter!"
"..."
…
Near noon, Sun Ce and Zue took a taxi to the yard of Stockton's villa. After ringing the doorbell, Sun Ce said into the radio: "Hello, I am..."
Before Sun Ce had finished announcing his home, a girl exclaimed: "Lord! It's really the lord! Just wait a moment, I'll open the door right away."
As he said that, the door opened, before Sun Ce could take a few steps in, a beautiful girl about 170 centimeters tall, who looked to be a junior high school student or at least a freshman in high school, rushed out...
"My dear! My dear! It's the lord himself!"
Sun Ce looked at the little girl who looked like a fan and was a little confused. Except when he returned to China to participate in activities, he usually went out to eat bowls of noodles and never encountered such fanatical fans. Now in the United States, he actually met... This is Si
Tocton's daughter?
At this time, Zu Ge next to him tightened Sun Ce's hand, feeling that the other person's approach was unkind.
"Hello, I'm Noah, nice to meet you. This is my sister, Lerina."
Laura Stockton, who finally recovered from her fanatical fan state, took two deep breaths and said: "Hello, I'm Laura. Come on, my dad is at home."
Laura said, regardless of Sun Ce's obstruction, she took away the pile of gifts in Sun Ce's left hand and excitedly led Sun Ce into the yard.
The yard is not big. When you enter the gate, you see the door of the villa. Stockton, who looks like a farmer uncle, is looking helplessly at his daughter who is not reserved at all.
Stockton really feels so miserable. After all, he is the assist leader and steal leader in NBA history. Why hasn’t his daughter discovered how awesome her dad is?
"Daddy, the lord has sent many gifts." Laura ran to Stockton holding a pile of gifts.
"..." Stockton was almost so angry that he couldn't breathe.
Have you never received a gift or something? This is too embarrassing! It seems like you have never seen the world or something?
But... what makes Stockton even more desperate is that when he thinks back on his life, it seems that no fans have really given him any gifts. When he was most glorious in the 1990s, his off-field image was no more than that of an ordinary middle-aged uncle.
Both.
Ignoring the daughter he usually loves most, Stockton took two symbolic steps to meet her, and Sun Ce happened to reach the steps of the villa at this time.
When Sun Ce walked over, he was looking at several people at the door. There was a girl who seemed to be in her 20s. Her eyes were fixed when she looked at him, which made Sun Ce feel uncomfortable.
Sun Ce has done some research and found that one of Stockton's two daughters was born in 1993 and the other in 1997, but he didn't remember her appearance clearly. The girl should be Stockton's eldest daughter Lindsay, who looks about 20 years old.
It's because American girls look more mature.
There are also two boys. Sun Ce remembers from the information he checked that one is named David and the other is Samuel. They are both pretty handsome, a bit more handsome than Stockton when he was young.
However, none of the Stockton family are tall. The boy who should be David Stockton is about the same height as his father, and the other one is not as tall as Laura. The eldest daughter Lindsay will also be 1.7 meters tall.
Look.
Sun Ce walked up the steps: "Hello, John, I kept you waiting for a long time. I'm glad to meet you for the first time. This is my sister Lerina."
"Hello." Zu Ge greeted politely.
Stockton stretched out his hand. Sun Ce waited for the senior to reach out and then stretched out his hand. After shaking it, Stockton said: "Noah, Lerina, hello, I'll go to the living room first..."
Stockton brought his four children and Sun Ce's brother and sister to the living room: "Please sit down, Laura, Lindsay, you go make coffee... Please sit down, can you make hot coffee? I'm old, every time
Everything you drink must be hot."
Sun Ce and Zu'e sat down and responded, "No problem, we also like to drink hot things."
Sun Ce felt a little strange. Why did the old man feel unhappy with him?
But that’s not right! Let’s not mention that the prerequisite requirements for “the blessing of the legendary point guard” have been fulfilled. If Stockton is really unhappy with him, then why did Stockton agree to meet with him?
At this point Stockton began to introduce his family: "These are my two sons, David and Samuel, and in the kitchen are my two daughters, Lindsay and Laura."
David quickly said at this time: "Hello, lord, I am David, can you take a photo with me later?"
Sun Ce responded enthusiastically: "Of course, nice to meet you..."
Seeing his most talented basketball son behave like this, Stockton felt even more miserable... Ever since his third son grew up, he has never seen his son take a photo with him!
Stockton is relieved that his younger son doesn't play basketball. He doesn't rush up and stare at people like his two daughters, nor does he ask for photos like his third son.
But...sometimes we are afraid of what will happen.
After David Stockton introduced himself, Samuel took out the poster of Sun Ce that he had prepared long ago: "Lord, can you sign it for me? If you can, please write some words of encouragement for me. I want to get it.
Go to school and hang it in the classroom! God! Those classmates don’t know how much they envy me!”
"Of course, no problem. Do you want to take a group photo and put it on the poster?" In order to please Stockton, Sun Ce tried his best to satisfy his child's request, which was not a big deal anyway.
"It would be better if we could take a group photo..."
Seeing the two sons eagerly pulling Sun Ce up to take a photo, Sun Ce's sister looked confused - didn't she say she was here to ask for advice? Why does it feel like a fan meeting?
Stockton seemed to hear the sound of his own heart breaking.
Your dad and I are the assists leader in NBA history! The steal leader in NBA history! I played 19 seasons, 17 of which were perfect attendances, and I am the leader in assists per game in a single season in history...
Wouldn't it be more prestigious to hang a poster of your father and me?
Seeing Sun Ce being pulled up by his son to pose in various poses and taking many photos, Stockton remembered this guy!
…
For lunch, Stockton specially invited a chef from a famous local restaurant to cook a dish, and it tasted pretty good.
The four children of the Stockton family are very enthusiastic. After the two sons tormented Sun Ce, it was the turn of the two daughters. They took various photos and asked various questions. Sun Ce also responded enthusiastically one by one and could meet all the requirements.
They are all satisfied, trying to make Stockton "satisfied" as much as possible.
but……
During lunch, Stockton kept having a bad look on his face, which made Sun Ce really confused.
He said that the other party didn't want to receive him, so he hired a chef to make lunch. The dishes were not cheap.
He said that the other party wanted to receive him, but from the moment he entered the door, he acted as if he wanted to drive him away.
But I didn't really drive him away...
Sun Ce didn't understand.
To be continued...
