Braised Eggplant with Minced Pork
Chapter 719 Twin Births! (First Update!)
After the game, Tang Tian accepted an interview from a female reporter on the sidelines.
“Did you know you were one assist away from a 50+ triple-double?”
After Tang Tian put up those numbers, this was the question the reporter was most concerned about.
“Yes, Monty reminded me.”
Tang Tian nodded.
“Does that make you regretful? You originally had a chance to complete it in the last minute.”
The reporter followed up.
“No, that wasn’t necessary. The outcome was already decided at that point. Winning the game makes me happier.”
The reporter looked at Tang Tian with surprise after hearing his answer. The translated meaning of his words was: could have gotten it, but it wasn’t necessary?
“But that’s a 50+ triple-double!”
The reporter exclaimed.
Even though Tang Tian was a superstar, that was a stat that many players couldn’t achieve in their entire lives!
“Haven’t I gotten one before? Or did I not?”
Tang Tian saw the reporter’s intense reaction and said with a faint smile.
What he said… seemed to make a lot of sense.
Unable to refute, speechless.
Tang Tian had already gotten a 50+ triple-double, so it was indeed much less appealing to him.
But still, it was a 50+ triple-double!
Just as the reporter was about to continue exclaiming, she suddenly saw a tall figure rushing into view.
It was Davis.
He was holding a cup of water, running over quickly, and pouring it down on Tang Tian’s head!
Although he didn’t play in the second half, he didn’t seem to be seriously injured, and was playing a prank on Tang Tian at this moment.
Tang Tian reacted quickly. He felt a chill on his head and immediately retracted his neck.
As a result, the remaining half cup of water from Davis went straight into the open cleavage of the female reporter’s shirt!
Davis didn’t have time to stop, and the female reporter didn’t have time to react.
“Ah~”
Accompanied by a scream, the water flowed from her chest, past her crotch, and down to her heels.
It was soaked.
“I’m sorry.”
Davis blushed and apologized to the female reporter.
The female reporter’s reaction was very professional. After recovering, she gestured that it was okay and couldn’t help but laugh.
Tang Tian smiled as well.
Under Stevens’ guidance this season, Davis had become much more outgoing than in the previous two years, but Tang Tian knew that he was still a virgin.
The interview was already coming to an end, and this little interlude served as an early conclusion.
Davis continued to apologize to the female reporter, and even asked for her phone number to invite her to dinner.
Tang Tian was stunned when he saw this.
Something didn’t feel right. Was he seeing Davis hitting on a woman?
He glanced at the female reporter again and couldn’t help but nod.
He hadn’t paid attention during the interview, but looking at her closely, this woman was actually quite pretty.
It seemed that Davis was breaking away from his adorable persona and heading down the path of a repressed, but secretly passionate man.
“Green really lost the game and his reputation, perfectly demonstrating how one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel. I’m switching from being a Warriors fan to hating them!”
“The league should add an additional suspension for Green. That kind of nut-kicking behavior is really beyond sportsmanship!”
“Congratulations to Green 'Draymond' Green for getting the nickname ‘Nut-Chasing Green.’ That elbow from Tang was satisfying!”
“More importantly, the Pelicans won! 20 consecutive wins. Who would have thought before the season that they would play so aggressively?!”
“ESPN thought of it…”
“Haha, they get slapped in the face every year. This year they’re slapping the fans’ faces, they’re showing off!”
“Tang is even more unstoppable, Davis is more mature, Jokic is stronger, plus the defense and tactical system implemented by Stevens, and the team’s developed chemistry, it all actually makes sense.”
“Speaking of which, after this battle of the century, Davis is injured, Green’s face is bruised and swollen. The two teams have completely become enemies.”
“They already were. They became enemies in the playoffs last year. This is just intensifying it, but it’s good that it’s intensifying. If the two teams meet again in the playoffs, it will definitely be full of highlights!”
“The league’s newest pair of rivals has been born!”
…
The battle of the century was over, but the fans’ discussions after the game didn’t stop.
However, Tang Tian didn’t pay attention to these things. The day after the battle of the century, he didn’t even attend the team’s training.
He was sitting outside the delivery room at this moment, waiting anxiously.
Today was Olsen’s due date. His twin sons were about to be born!
Because they were twins, a C-section was used to reduce the risk.
The time wouldn’t be too long, but for Tang Tian waiting outside, it felt like a century.
But he wasn’t alone at this moment. Olsen’s parents were sitting next to him, and his parents had also flown to New Orleans yesterday, and were also by his side.
The five people waited like that.
After waiting for more than half an hour without any movement, Tang Tian couldn’t sit still and paced back and forth in the hallway to relieve the tension in his heart.
After an hour, a nurse called out at the door, and Tang Tian turned around and trotted over.
Two healthy sons, but perhaps because they were just born, they looked a little ugly with their grayish-yellowish skin.
But their skin color could be distinguished as being Asian.
The skin color of mixed-race children is more influenced by their father.
The children were only brought out for them to confirm, and then Olsen’s parents accompanied them upstairs to get vaccinated.
Tang Tian and his parents waited outside for another half an hour before Olsen was wheeled out.
The downside of a C-section is that the recovery time after surgery is longer, but the risk of childbirth is much lower than with a natural birth.
Olsen didn’t look much different at this moment than before she was pushed into the operating room.
“Two sons, both very healthy.”
Tang Tian said, holding Olsen’s hand.
Olsen nodded with a smile. She had received local anesthesia, and the nurses had already shown her the children when they were first born.
Tang Tian was really excited.
Back in the ward, the two sons were brought back after getting their vaccinations.
They weren’t hungry yet, and were lying quietly in their swaddling clothes.
Tang Tian and Olsen discussed the issue of naming the children.
Being parents is very happy, but naming them is always the most headache-inducing thing.
Moreover, this exchange started between the two of them, but soon, both sets of parents joined in.
Mixed with English and Chinese, the ward became a place where this topic couldn’t be decided for a while.
Olsen started breastfeeding. Luckily, she had big breasts and enough milk, otherwise these two sons would only be able to drink formula.
Tang Tian continued to communicate with both sets of parents.
By the time Olsen finished breastfeeding, their discussion had basically come to a result.
In a mixed Chinese-Western family, they tried to take both sides into account as much as possible. The two names had different styles, one leaning towards traditional Chinese, and the other towards American.
The older brother was named Tang Yongqi. Yong was part of his generation name, and as for Qi, it was one of Olsen’s favorite characters from the word Qilin (a mythical Chinese creature) when she was studying Chinese characters.
As for whether it was difficult to write, he could blame his mother when he grew up.
The younger brother was named Tang Si. The English pronunciation of Tang Si is a type of surname in the United States, but very American.
