Chapter 288 Absence Due to Injury
The arrival of Lavender disrupted Neil's original rhythm of life. In addition to competitions, he used to practice every day. Occasionally, he was too tired and felt boring, so he would rest and drive his car. Take your parents to the countryside for a walk to relax.

And now that Lavender is here, he needs to spend some time with her every day, but he feels that this kind of life is more meaningful than before.

But in life, many times, when you gain something, you also lose something, so that the balance between gain and loss will be balanced, and God will be able to give an explanation to mankind.

It's just that before God intervenes in anything, God will give everyone a little time to find themselves. If He lets you get something new and gives you time to adjust, but you are still so indifferent, then, sorry, Your disaster is about to come.

After Neil arrived in Lavender, he originally thought that if he was in a good mood, every game in the future would be like the sun, but he didn't know that in the first game after Lavender came, some problems were exposed.

On the afternoon of Wednesday, Neil and Lavender went out early to go camping in the famous local forest park. They were bathed in the warm sunshine on the lawn, facing the blue sky, they closed their eyes slightly, and chatted on the lawn. The more we talked, the more excited we were, and the thoughts resonated. Before Neil set off, he was still thinking about a game against his old team, the Raptors, in the evening. But with Lavender, time may have passed too fast. For some reason, Neil forgot, only half an hour before the start of the game, Neil suddenly received a call from his father.

"Neil, where have you been? You have a game tonight, you forgot?"

"Dad, I forgot, I'll be right back."

"Okay, hurry up, the game will be held in half an hour at your home goal center arena, and the opponent is the Toronto Raptors who once abandoned you mercilessly. Just now your coach called to solemnly remind you, no matter tonight Whether the sky is falling or the ground is cracking, you have to rush to participate in this game, and the owner of your team is sitting on the sidelines and waiting to see your bloody performance against your old team."

"Okay, Dad, I see. I'm going to go to the competition at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour. See you in the arena. That's it for now!"

Lavender looked up at Neil who was in a panic after answering the phone, and immediately asked Neil with a worried expression, "What's wrong, Neil?"

"Lavender, I'm sorry, I have a game in half an hour, I don't have time to continue playing with you now, let's go back!"

"Oh my god, half an hour? It takes half an hour to get home here, and about 10 minutes to get to the Target Center arena, and there is no traffic jam. If there is a traffic jam, there is no way to catch up."

"Then what can I do, I have to race against time!"

"But I don't want you to take huge risks because of a game, so that sitting next to me will be very scared, very scared, you are my spiritual pillar, if you make any mistakes, I will collapse .”

"Don't worry, it's alright!"

After Neil responded, he gave Lavender an affectionate hug, and then he invited Lavender into the car. After Lavender got into the car, he stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom. Neil's driving skills are usually average, and today he is like a professional As a racing driver, the speed of shifting gears and the ability to react made Lavender, who was sitting on the co-pilot wearing a seat belt, shiver. Look, because everything on both sides of the road can no longer be described by the word "dodge", let alone dazzled.

When the car driven by Neil passed by, Lavender neither dared to speak, nor dared to remind Neil to slow down, because Neil did this because of her. Therefore, she did not hinder Neil from driving, but silently prayed to God to bless them.

When they drove to the intersection of a large commercial center, they were blocked at the intersection.

At this moment, Neil couldn't calm down anymore. He glanced at the time. It was already 10:[-], and it was only [-] minutes before the game time. Neil slapped the steering wheel hard and said a dirty word: "FUCK... What the hell!"

"Neil, calm down, it's okay! Otherwise, you should call the coach first."

"Lavender, it's useless. The game is about to start. The NBA clearly stipulates that coaches cannot bring any communication equipment to the arena during the game. If they do, once they are detected by the relevant testing equipment, they will face unemployment. Therefore, every coach is particularly afraid of this NBA regulation."

"Ah... so what do we do now?"

"It's okay, it's a big deal to miss today's game."

"But now is the rising period of your career. In this case, you won't leave regrets in your life again?" Lavender stared at Neil guiltily and said.

For a moment of silence, Neil pretended to be strong, calm, and optimistic, smiled slightly, and waved to Lavender: "Lavender, it's okay, everything is the best arrangement, if today's game, God It’s also arranged, and I’m not allowed to participate, so even if I try to force it, it’s equal to zero, so instead of blaming yourself like this, it’s better to look forward with strength and optimism, and don’t…”

Neil wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by a long car horn.

Neil looked at the time and it was still 5 minutes away. If he couldn't feel the scene before 5 minutes, then he really couldn't participate in this game, because the arena will be closed after the game starts.

But Neil was still blocked by the long convoy, unable to squeeze through at all. Neil slapped the steering wheel again, and said the previous sentence again: "FUCK...what the hell!"

"Neil, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you take me out to play today."

"Xu Yi, you can't say that. I don't have a chance to participate in this competition. There is a next one. But if you are gone, you will really be gone."

"Thank you and I love you!"

"I love you too!"

Lavender was particularly moved, and stretched her neck, wanting to give Neil a deep kiss, but was frightened by the tinkling phone ringing and hurriedly withdrew her neck.

Neil couldn't help smiling, shook his head, and took out his phone to answer it. It turned out that the coach called from the player's mobile phone in the locker room.

Seeing that it was a call from his teammates, Neil picked it up and answered it without thinking.

"Hey buddy! Now is the race? I'm stuck in traffic."

"Neil, don't you want to stay anymore?"

Neil heard that the voice on the other end of the phone was not the voice of his teammates, but the voice of the coach, and asked him with a warning tone. Therefore, without thinking, he subconsciously replied: "Coach, I think!"

"Now that the game is about to start, do you think this is the attitude? You are out of time for this game, so I will directly let the media spread the news that you will miss a game due to injury, and I have to hide it from the boss for you, Otherwise, your kid will die."

"Okay, thank you coach!"

"You're welcome, remember, no matter how talented a player is, he can't prove his talent without playing time. Therefore, let's put aside the personal affairs at hand. This world is cruel. If you don't have enough If you have the strength, then in the future, no matter where you go, you will be stared at."

"Coach, I remember, thank you! I will not let you down."

"It doesn't matter if you let me down, the most important thing is not to let yourself down, good luck!"

Before Neil could say goodbye, the coach beeped and hung up the phone.

He put the phone back where he put it, took a long breath, swept away the haze on his face, looked at Lavender and smiled slightly: "Larvey, it's all right, the coach sent news that I was injured because of my injury. absent."

"It's good that you teach people, you have to play well for him."

"receive……"

The two sat in the spacious car for about 3 minutes before the route was fully cleared. They looked at each other and smiled, and drove towards home.
