Chapter 154 Merry Christmas
On the morning of December 23rd, when Xu Nuo woke up in his room, he was blinded by the strong light outside the window.After slowly getting used to the strong light outside the window, Xu Nuo came to the balcony of the room and was pleasantly surprised to find that the world outside the window was already covered with snow, and the whole city was immersed in the world covered in white.

"It's snowing!" Standing on the balcony, Xu Nuo couldn't help shouting loudly.It seemed that the voice of the promise was too loud, causing some snow flakes from the top of the balcony to fall down one after another.

"Ferdinand, don't stand on the balcony in pajamas, you will freeze your body!" Lana screamed behind Xu Nuo, and hurried to the balcony, trying to pull Xu Nuo back into the room.But Xu Nuo jumped and ran back into the room before Lana stretched out her hand.

"It's snowing outside!" Xu Nuo said excitedly to Lana.

"I know, Ferdinand." Lana said worriedly, "You will really freeze your body by jumping around outside the room like this!"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Nuo said loudly, before Lana took out her clothes, she changed into her sports clothes and hurried out of the room.Standing in Xu Nuo's room, Lana couldn't help shaking her head when she heard Xu Nuo's heavy footsteps rushing down the stairs.

When Xu Nuo ran to the first floor, he didn't see his parents who were supposed to be sitting in the dining room.Xu Nuo didn't care about these anymore, but ran straight out of the villa and onto the avenue beside the Ohio River.

At this time, the snowflakes were still swaying in the sky one after another, and the cold wind kept blowing through Xu Xu's clothes.But Xu Nuo was still jogging along the Ohio River. Not long after, Xu Nuo felt his body warm up slowly, and sweat began to flow from his head.

When Xu Nuo was running in the morning, Xu Nuo saw beautiful Christmas trees in many shops along the road, Xu Nuo suddenly remembered that today is December 23rd, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and the day after tomorrow is Christmas festival.

"Time flies so fast, it's already Christmas." Xu Nuo thought in his heart, "But it doesn't matter to me at all, because I never celebrate Christmas."

Xu Nuo didn't run along the Ohio River for long. Although the icy Ohio River had beautiful scenery, Xu Nuo didn't miss the Ohio River's scenery too much.Despite the heavy snowfall, Coach Larry Brown still arranged the training. At least until now, he promised that he had not received news of the cancellation of the training. The training in the morning should be carried out according to the original plan.

When Xu Nuo returned home, Lana was talking to Xu Nuo's parents.After Xu Nuo came to the restaurant and sat down, Xu Nuo heard that Lana was asking her parents for a vacation.

"Today is December 23rd, and the day after tomorrow is already Christmas. Now I should go home and spend the holiday with my family." Lana said to her promised parents.

"Christmas?" Dad said, frowning.

"Yes!" Lana nodded.

"Their Christmas is equivalent to our Spring Festival." Xu Nuo interrupted at this time.

"Of course I know that," Dad said.

"We should have let her take a vacation," Xu Nuo continued, "Actually, Lana should have taken a vacation a long time ago."

"Okay, you can go on vacation after breakfast," Dad said to Lana.

"Thank you sir!" Lana bowed slightly and said with a smile.

As promised, Coach Larry Brown did not cancel this morning's training because of the sudden heavy snowfall. Xu Nuo and George Hill had to continue driving to Conseco Arena, the home stadium of the Indiana Pacers Participate in team training.Of course, the promise is not against coach Larry Brown doing this, after all, they are promised tonight that they will face the challenge of the New Jersey Nets led by Deron Williams.

The Christmas spirit slowly began to pick up in the Conseco Arena, too, and when Promise walked into the arena with George Hill, every team worker they saw was saying hello to them.Although he promises that he will not celebrate Christmas, Xu Nuo still says "Merry Christmas" to every staff member he sees.

"Do you also celebrate Christmas in China?" George Hill asked and promised.

"No, I don't celebrate Christmas." Xu Nuo shrugged and said, "But I'm going to do as the Romans do?"

George Hill smiled, and pushed open the door of the players' locker room in front of him.

Although there is a game tonight, the whole morning training is still full of relaxation, it seems that it is already Christmas.Just after training, Xu Nuo received a call from his girlfriend Ellen Page.Soon after receiving the call, Xu Nuo met Ellen Page at a restaurant near the arena.

"Today I want to tell you something you don't want to hear." Ellen Page said to Xu Nuo.

"Whether I want to hear it or not, I still have to listen to what should be heard." Xu Nuo said.

"Well then," said Ellen Page, shrugging, "I'm leaving Indianapolis this afternoon."

"Where are you going?" Xu Nuo raised his eyebrows and said.

"Go home, go back to Halifax," said Ellen Page.

"I'm going home for Christmas." Xu Nuo nodded gently.

"Yeah!" whispered Ellen Page, burying her head deep in her arms, "and then we won't be able to spend Christmas together."

"It's okay, I don't celebrate Christmas." Xu Nuo said with a smile.

"Well," Ellen Page looked sad, "Actually, I wanted to invite your family to Halifax for Christmas."

"Uh..." Xu Nuo looked into Ellen Page's eyes and said, "Think about it, even I don't celebrate Christmas, let alone my parents."

"That's true," said Ellen Page reluctantly, "I've thought of that a long time ago."

"We will spend Christmas together in the future." Xu Nuo comforted Ellen Page.

"Really?" Ellen Page looked up and asked Xu Nuo.

"Of course it's true." Xu Nuo said.

"Well, it's a deal!" Ellen Page said with a slight pout.

"It's a deal!" Xu Nuo said.

While walking on the street, Xu Nuo said to Ellen Page, "I'll take you to the airport this afternoon."

"No, you still have a game tonight." Ellen Page said.

"Then, Merry Christmas!" said Promise, looking into Ellen Page's eyes.

"You too, although you don't celebrate Christmas." Ellen Page said with a smile, but her smile seemed a little bitter.Xu Nuo cupped Ellen Page's face and gently kissed Ellen Page's lips.

After sending away Ellen Page, Xu Nuo began to concentrate on preparing for the night's game against the New Jersey Nets.

"Is Ellen going back to Halifax today?" When Xu Nuo was concentrating on watching the New Jersey Nets game, his mother walked into Xu Nuo's room and asked Xu Nuo.

"Yeah, how do you know?" Xu Nuo raised his head from the game in surprise, looked at his mother and asked.

"Ellen called in the morning, and she wanted to invite us to Halifax for Christmas," Mom said.

"Yes, that's what she said to me just now." Xu Nuo said.

"Did you see her?" Mom asked.

"Well, I still want to go to the airport to see her off, but unfortunately we have a game tonight, so I didn't go to the airport." Xu Nuo said while focusing on the game again.

"What do you say about Christmas?" Mom asked.

"What else can I say, of course I never celebrate Christmas." Xu Nuo said.

Mom nodded, without saying anything, turned and walked out of the room, while Xu Nuo continued to focus on the game in front of her.

Tonight's game was too easy for the Indiana Pacers, except that Promise didn't have the upper hand against New Jersey Nets point guard Deron Williams.In the end, the Indiana Pacers at home easily defeated the New Jersey Nets who came to challenge with a big score of 101:83.Xu Nuo scored 10 points and 8 assists in the game, while Deron Williams, who played against Xu Nuo, scored 24 points and [-] assists.

"Actually, you can perform better tonight!" After the game, Coach Larry Brown said to the promise with a serious face.

"If this game is held on Christmas Day, maybe I can perform much better than tonight." Xu Nuo said to Coach Larry Brown with a smile.

"What?" Coach Larry Brown didn't seem to understand what Xu Nuo said for a while.

"I mean, I hope Christmas will bring me some good luck." Xu Nuo said with a smile.

"That's right," Coach Larry Brown laughed too. "Merry Christmas, rookie."

"Merry Christmas, Coach Brown," promised.

The Indiana Pacers didn't play on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, so Coach Larry Brown didn't arrange any damn practice, so he promised to enjoy this rare two-day vacation at home.Xu Nuo didn't pay attention to who won the Christmas battle, because after Christmas, the intensive competition was in front of him.In the last three games of 2011, the Indiana Pacers had to face the Detroit Pistons, Toronto Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers in a row. The opponents were not very strong, which was very easy for the Indiana Pacers.And there's nothing better than a promise that Ellen Page will be back.
