Chapter 9 [Tom and Jerry]



Chapter 9 [Tom and Jerry]

Yang Rui decided to call his friend Thomas Bentley.

The bond between the two can be seen from the name. When he was in the orphanage, the dean named him Tom. The two grew up together. Although the skin color is different, they are better than brothers.

Searching memory, Yang Rui learned a lot about growing up.

Tom was malnourished when he was a child, very thin, too lively, and a little hyperactive, so no family was willing to adopt him.Jerry was adopted when he was 8 years old and often went back to the orphanage to see Tom and share good things with him.

The two went to the same elementary school and the same junior high school.

At the age of 12, Tom still looked like a 7 or 8-year-old elementary school student. At the age of 14, he suddenly turned into a "ugly duckling" and began to grow taller, with blond hair and a delicate appearance.

At this age, no one will adopt Tom. He started working part-time to support himself, and later changed his name to Thomas Bentley, which sounds very imposing.The surname is his favorite car name, which can also be translated into "Bentley" in Chinese.

After another four years, he grew from a height of 155CM to 190CM, and his body was extremely healthy.

During high school, Jerry's adoptive father died, and the roles of the two suddenly changed. Thomas began to give Jerry a favor and help him through the difficulties.

Jerry, who studied very poorly, did not go to university and could only enter the society ahead of schedule.Thomas used his scholarship to help him realize his dream and passed the coaching certificate.

Because Jerry benefited unilaterally, many of Thomas's classmates disliked him.

Thomas had two wealthy girlfriends and persuaded him to distance himself from Jerry and think about his future, but he ended up breaking up with his girlfriends.

As long as Thomas chooses a rich second-generation girlfriend, he will not have to worry about his future career, but he chose to raise this unrealistic brother who is chasing his dreams.

For this pair of basic friends, Yang Rui is quite speechless, and the sense of disobedience is too strong!

The story would have been much better if Thomas had been a woman, a blond beauty with good looks and a strong character.

Since she was a child, she met a handsome and sunny guy who was willing to pay for him. The two depended on each other. When she grew up, she became better and better. She had a bright future. After going through a series of setbacks, the handsome sunshine boy was indomitable and finally realized his dream and became an NBA basketball coach. They are happily together...

Well, that's a lot better. (What a shit! You just want your best friend to be a beauty, right?!)

Yang Rui organized a vocabulary and broadcast the phone.

You can't keep out of contact with your good brother in this life just because you are reborn and your future memory character dominates.If it wasn't for Thomas' funding, he wouldn't be a coach.

The phone rang three times and got through, Yang Rui felt a little uneasy.

"Jerry, do you still know how to make a phone call? You are not at home every time I call you!" Thomas' roar came from the other end of the phone, directly blinding Yang Rui, forgetting everything he wanted to say.

Thomas saw that he didn't speak for five seconds, and his voice suddenly dropped from 100 decibels to 10 decibels, and his tone went to the other extreme. "Hey, are you okay?"

"Nothing happened... I just wanted to tell you the good news. I have found a job, and I will definitely be able to repay the money you lent me."

Yang Rui can't be as rude as Jerry. In his last life, he never borrowed money, and he hates to owe favors. It would make him feel very uncomfortable.

Unexpectedly, Thomas went crazy over the phone. "Fuckyou! You actually gave me money back? Forgot what you said when I was in the orphanage? Your money is my money, and my money is your money. You're crazy, aren't you?"

In the United States, such things are very common. For example, Iverson was elected as the No. [-] pick. After he became rich, he raised a group of brothers in the slums, and used his to eat his own.In China, this kind of thing is absolutely rare.

Yang Rui quickly changed his mind. "OK, don't get excited, don't worry, I'm not sick, just kidding, I will never pay you back! What I want to express is that now I have money!"

"You became a coach? In which school?" Thomas asked excitedly.

"It's not a school..." Yang Rui guessed that this guy's urination, if he said that he had joined the Knicks, he would be able to fly to New York immediately and send him to the nearest mental hospital.

"It's not a school, is it possible that a professional team wants you?" Thomas' tone became a little weird.

"Yeah, you'll know soon. I'm going on a business trip to Long Beach. I'll be there tomorrow." Yang Rui smiled.

Los Angeles is very close to Long Beach, and Thomas immediately answered: "Then I'll go to Long Beach too, see you at the airport tomorrow, I'll pack the room and board."

"Someone has reserved a hotel for me, don't be fooled, I'll go with my colleagues." Yang Rui asked, "Don't you have to go to work?"

"It's just an internship." Thomas asked with a smile, "Is my colleague pretty?"

"Man, a fat man, he's 40." Yang Ruihan said.

"What a pity," Thomas sighed.

In the early morning, Yang Rui and Xibodu got on the plane to Long Beach together. When he left the airport the next morning, he saw his buddy at a glance.

"Hey, Jerry, I'm here." Thomas was tall and straight in a white T-shirt, gray slacks, and a pair of tan sunglasses.

He has a flat golden head and sharp facial features, and he has attracted scouts while walking on the street.He waved at Jerry, and many people looked at him.

"This is your friend? He's much more handsome than you, and you won't be able to find a girl when you go out with him." Thibodeau was rarely humorous.The two read materials together and discussed basketball tactics. They have become familiar with each other in the past few days.

"If you can't soak it, you won't be able to soak it." Yang Rui smiled.

His relationship has been underestimated, and it was not that he had no girlfriend in his last life. He was more eager to do something big and succeed in his career.

After exiting the security check, the two brothers hugged.

Yang Rui is not worried about getting along with Thomas in the future. Just like the image in his memory, he communicates well, and even strangers can easily become friends with him.

Thomas quietly suppressed his smile, as if he was too open to let Yang Rui do it, he asked in a low voice, "Is this your boss next to you?"

"No, let me introduce you." Yang Rui faced Xibodu. "This is my good brother, Thomas Bentley."

"You can call me Tom." Thomas smiled.

In the United States, the nickname for Thomas is generally Tom.For example, Tom Cruise, whose full name is actually "Thomas Cruise Mapother IV." Translates to Thomas Cruise Mapother IV.

"This is my partner, Tom Thibodeau, who is an assistant coach together... So, when the three of us are together, can I call Big Tom and Little Tom to distinguish?" Yang Rui laughed.

Thomas smiled. Thibodeau had a black line. As an uncle working with young people, there was really a generation gap.

"What team do you work for? Are there basketball games in Long Beach?" Thomas asked.

"NBA Summer League, why didn't he tell you about being an assistant coach for the Knicks?" Thibodeau looked at the two curiously and answered for Yang Rui.

"Summer League?" Thomas was stunned for ten seconds, thinking about what school is called the Knicks, and exclaimed: "What? You joined the New York Knicks?!"

He startled the people next to him, and the airport security all looked this way.

Thibodeau was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Yang Rui shrugged proudly. "That's why I'm afraid to tell you on the phone."
