The No.1 Anti-Fans in Basketball-Chapter 186 - 123: All-Star Runner-Up Vote King

"Scarlett, I want to drink your bathwater!"

The time had come to January 17th when the 68th Golden Globe Awards ceremony took place at the Hollywood Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. Upon seeing Scarlett Johnson appear in a deep V-neck dress, Durant excitedly posted a status on his social media.

This instantly sparked countless jokes and mockeries.

Having played the role of Black Widow in "Iron Man 2" the previous year, Scarlett’s popularity exploded, ranking her America’s sexiest goddess.

Durant’s reaction, a typical awkward young man, couldn’t have been clearer.

However, soon after, Scarlett Johnson responded on social media.

"If you can win the 2011 NBA Championship, I wouldn’t mind you drinking my bathwater."

Scarlett was 26 years old. For Americans, especially American actresses, this was trivial.

Meanwhile, Durant was already excited behind the screen, the goddess of America had replied so quickly; this signified a possibility between them!

...

"Three times at most today."

In Swift’s New York mansion, Swift reminded Hansen, who was embracing her.

The Grizzlies were visiting New York, and since Swift had no schedules early in the morning, a major battle was imminent for these lovers who often faced separations.

"Last time, I couldn’t recover for a week." Seeing Hansen’s hands not stopping, Swift repeated.

She genuinely enjoyed spending time with Hansen, but this one thing was beyond her expectations; Hansen’s stamina was simply too overwhelming.

Hansen nodded.

...

Swift leaned into Hansen’s arms, her eyes full of resentful charm.

She was going mad.

Hansen had indeed adhered to her request, the frequency hadn’t increased, but the intensity was unlike before.

She felt several times not just a blank mind but on the verge of fainting.

This was not romantic at all, nothing like what she had imagined.

Hansen could only pretend not to see.

He had indeed held back, but the [Classical Master] had greatly enhanced his waist and abdominal strength.

And at the height of passion, who could control so much?

"I have a concert next week; come to the venue," Swift murmured as she sat up straight.

The results of the second round of the All-Star election had already been announced before this.

Hansen was pushed to the third place by Paul.

The number of votes between the two was already close; having completely offended the Spurs fans, they knew Parker and Manu Ginobili had little chance of starting, hence they switched their votes to Paul, aiming to prevent Hansen from becoming the starter of The West.

This was a continuation from Hansen missing the 2010 World Championship.

Advancing to the top 16 in the world competition, the media had portrayed the association as fully committed and the players as hardworking, all except Hansen, who was selfish.

For such a selfish person, the domestic media now treated news about Hansen with a cold attitude.

After all, the Grizzlies were no Knights; without James, unless you actively searched, you wouldn’t see any related news, much less good news, which naturally made it hard to support Hansen.

Fan circles? They were insignificant in the face of media power.

This nearly total blockade was the most damaging.

After all, Hansen was playing across the ocean, and there was a huge barrier between East University and the United States. freēnovelkiss.com

As for those who had previously voted Hansen into the All-Star starting lineup only to realize they were actually helping him, they naturally wouldn’t repeat that mistake.

Thus, although there was still domestic voting, it didn’t form a massive group, and with another shift in the League’s voting proportion against East University, Hansen had been surpassed.

Swift mentioning the concert was actually a way to indirectly garner votes for Hansen.

"Okay," Hansen kissed Swift.

In matters related to basketball, Hansen had always been thick-skinned.

Especially since he had already clashed with reporters, any opportunity he should take more fiercely.

Swift truly considered a lot for him.

"What are you doing?" Swift noticed Hansen’s hands becoming restless again.

"I haven’t showered."

"No problem, let’s shower together."

...

A week later, Swift held a small-scale concert for her fans in New York, abruptly switched to a smaller venue at Madison Square Garden.

Despite being a minor concert, the venue was still packed on the night of the show.

Swift’s popularity had soared rapidly following the success of the "Fearless" 118-show world tour, positioning her firmly among the top-tier singers.

At this time, Hansen was watching Swift’s concert from a VIP box.

Although he had been with Swift for over two months, this was his first time actually attending one of her concerts.

No, to be more precise, it was the first time in his two lifetimes.

The feeling was incomparable.

Swift shone brilliantly on stage.

At that moment, he understood why he had felt there was a different kind of beauty when Swift was focused; because, at that moment, Swift on stage was the epitome of concentration.

As one song followed another, the atmosphere in the venue continued to escalate.

Finally, when it reached its peak, Swift began singing her currently most popular song.

Hansen also left the VIP box.

"Love Story"

As the intro started, the whole venue erupted.

"We were both young when I first saw you..."

As the song played, the venue erupted into a massive sing-along.
