Chapter 100

Yang Mo walked to the bathroom, finished washing up, and only then realized that he could actually walk. He quickly looked down at his right ankle; although it was still a bit swollen, it no longer hurt, and he could move it freely. Most importantly, he felt that his legs were stronger than ever, as if he could sprint a hundred meters at any moment.

Could the mission reward have already been successfully granted? Do I now have Allen Iverson's speed?

At this thought, Yang Mo was overjoyed and ran to the living room, circling it three or four times. Indeed, his speed was astonishing, just as fast as in his dream last night.

Damn, in the future, who will be able to outrun me in a fast break? With my Allen Iverson legs, you seven-foot centers can just cry! Hahahaha!

Yang Mo was so delighted that he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Kristin, who had already woken up, leaned against the door, looking at Yang Mo with a puzzled expression, as if she were watching a lunatic. When Yang Mo's laughter subsided, she reminded him, "Momo Yang, don't say I didn't warn you. The curtains have been open the whole time. Aren't you afraid someone will take a picture of you naked?"

Kristin's reminder instantly woke Yang Mo up. He had been terrified of those idiot reporters and quickly closed the curtains. Then he turned around and said very seriously to Kristin, "Big star, how many times have I told you not to call me Momo? That's a girl's name."

"But why didn't you object when I called you that last night?" Kristin asked innocently, her eyes wide.

"That was in bed, that was during sex, how can you mix them up?"

"So what? I'm still going to call you Momo." Kristin pouted playfully and walked into the bathroom like a crab, her thighs still not fully together, showing the intensity of last night's seven rounds.

Since she insisted on calling him that, Yang Mo had no choice but to turn around and find some clothes to wear.

...

During the time Yang Mo was gone, Pat Riley was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He had lost contact with Yang Mo for over thirty hours. Although he knew Yang Mo was with Kristin, he was still worried. As an injured player, if something went wrong and left any aftereffects, it would be a huge blow to both Yang Mo and the entire Miami Heat team. Despite the external doubts about Yang Mo, Pat Riley had always remained confident and was prepared to hand over the core position in the frontcourt to him.

Moreover, there was now a beautiful woman in his office, an Asian beauty agent. From her introduction, he learned that she was a Korean beauty, but not the Jessica who had been rumored to be with Yang Mo before. This was someone else. Although all Korean girls looked the same to Pat Riley, this one had a unique charm, the grace of a mature woman, and the beauty of a young girl. If he were thirty years younger, he would have been tempted to pursue her.

However, now was not the time for such thoughts. This beautiful woman was aggressively demanding that he hand over Yang Mo.

The problem was, he didn't know where Yang Mo was, and he couldn't tell her that Yang Mo had been taken away by Kristin. Seeing how desperate Miss Kim was, she must be another of Yang Mo's girlfriends.

Pat Riley was almost driven mad. Why did Yang Mo have so many girlfriends, and why did he have to clean up after him?

"Mr. Pat Riley, I want to know... when will Yang finally arrive in Miami? You told me on the phone yesterday that he is receiving the best treatment in Boston and will be back today. But it's already afternoon, and I checked the flights from Boston to Miami. There are no flights this afternoon or evening."

Kim Tae-hee's words made Pat Riley break out in a sweat. Dealing with a woman who could present facts and reason was even more terrifying. He picked up the water on the table, took a couple of small sips, and said, "Maybe... maybe Yang took a bus."

"Take a bus from Boston to Miami?" Kim Tae-hee exclaimed, then stood up, fiddled with the globe on Pat Riley's desk, found the two points, and pointed at them, asking Pat Riley, "Are you sure he took a bus?"

"Um..." Pat Riley felt a bit guilty and said, "He might stay there for another day."

"Does that mean his injury is very serious? Which hospital is he in? I hope to go and take care of him as soon as possible." Kim Tae-hee became even more anxious when she heard Pat Riley's words.

How could Pat Riley know which hospital Yang Mo was in? But with Kim Tae-hee determined not to stop until she found Yang Mo, what could he do? He really wanted to tell this beautiful woman that Yang Mo had been taken away by Kristin, but then he thought, if Yang Mo found out, it would be a mess. He would lose both women and get angry with him. Besides, which young man isn't a bit of a playboy?

So, he gritted his teeth and continued to lie, "It's not convenient, it's quite troublesome to go there."

"I came all the way from Korea, going to Boston is no trouble. Just tell me which hospital he's in."

Seeing Kim Tae-hee's deep affection, Pat Riley couldn't help but feel moved. What a good girl! Traveling a thousand miles to find her husband. But Yang Mo was such a scoundrel, having such a good girlfriend and still fooling around outside.

He suddenly felt some sympathy for Kim Tae-hee and was about to tell her the truth.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. He immediately felt relieved and quickly said, "Come in."

When the door opened, Pat Riley, who had been relieved, was completely at ease, because standing outside was Yang Mo.

"He's back." Pat Riley said this, and the immense pressure he had been feeling was suddenly lifted as he slumped into his chair, taking a deep breath. Damn, I almost betrayed Yang Mo, thank goodness he's back.

Kim Tae-hee turned around and saw Yang Mo, tears streaming down her face. She quickly rushed over, hugged him tightly, and sobbed uncontrollably.

Seeing her so upset, Yang Mo was deeply moved and quickly hugged her tightly, comforting her softly, "It's okay, it's okay, everything's fine now, it's all over."

At this moment, Pat Riley, who was lying in the chair, suddenly remembered something and quickly gestured to Yang Mo. Seeing that Yang Mo didn't understand, he quickly wrote a few large words on a piece of paper: Don't say you were with Kristin, I deceived her!

Yang Mo saw this and nodded gratefully, carefully loosening his left arm and giving Pat Riley a thumbs up.

Pat Riley, however, gave Yang Mo a disapproving look and kept making the sign of the cross on his chest, silently confessing his lie to God.
