This is the only possibility that the media can think of now.

Outside the locker room, several familiar media reporters gathered together for a while and finally decided to use this reason tomorrow to report on the reason for Chen Jie's sluggish performance today.

However, because this is just their guess and not very reliable, of course they will not report it as fact. They will only use ambiguous words such as "it is said" and "according to an insider".

After reaching agreement on this issue, the media had another question.

That is, what kind of emotional tendency should be used in tomorrow's report.

In other words, should we criticize Chen Jie's performance today overwhelmingly, or should we downplay the big issue and show our understanding, or should we support him?

After thinking about it for a while, the media reporters generally felt that Noccioni was right. A player like Chen Jie is a superman. He will not be reduced to this.

In one or two games at most, he will definitely find his form.

In this case, why offend him?

Maybe he will be unhappy when he sees the report, and when he recovers, he will scold the reporter or the media who reported today.

The feeling of being ridiculed by Chen Jie is not that pleasant.

Simply, it would be better to sell one to Chen Jie.

Today’s game report will be reported in a tone of support for Chen Jie.

Although his performance is not good, it is understandable, and we have the same attitude as the Bulls players and coaches, that is, he can adjust quickly, and we believe in him.

This sentence said by a reporter from the New York Times was recognized by most people.

After summing up these things, the media dispersed and started preparing to write press releases.

As for the post-match press conference, they really weren't interested, especially after seeing that Chen Jie didn't even go!

When reporters surrounded Chen Jie's teammates and coaches, trying to get some useful information from them, Chen Jie had already left the arena.

The team's arrangement is to have a night's rest in Cleveland tonight. Otherwise, they would have to fly twice a day and play a game, which would be too physically demanding for the players.

The game against the Milwaukee Bucks will be played every other day, so the team simply arranges to get up early tomorrow morning and then fly back to Chicago.

In other words, Chen Jie will stay in Cleveland tonight.

He originally planned to contact the Times reporter Ruth after returning to Chicago and find out from her whether the woman was Beyoncé.

But being upset all night today, Chen Jie couldn't wait any longer.

So he returned to the locker room, dismissed the media, took a quick shower, changed his clothes and left the arena alone.

Then, he called Ruth and asked her if she was free tonight. He wanted to treat Ruth to a meal.

In fact, Ruth already knew about the relationship between Beyoncé and Chen Jie at this time.

During the competition, Chen Jie's performance was so sluggish that Beyoncé couldn't control her worries. Her mood was completely written on her face.

Ruth had long suspected whether Beyoncé knew Chen Jie. This time, seeing Beyoncé's concern for Chen Jie, Ruth finally couldn't hold back her suspicion, and she began to question Beyoncé.

Beyoncé originally didn’t want to tell Ruth about her relationship with Chen Jie, but soon, many of Beyoncé’s friends knew about Chen Jie’s existence, and these friends all knew Ruth. If Ruth really

If you want to know, she has many ways to find out.

It's okay if she doesn't become suspicious. Once she becomes suspicious, if she asks people in Durham City, there are really not many people who don't know about the relationship between Beyoncé and Chen Jie.

Beyoncé saw that Ruth kept asking questions, and it was obvious that the decision was almost confirmed. As soon as Beyoncé admitted it, she knew that she couldn't hide it from Ruth.

It might be better if she told Ruth herself. If Ruth found out on her own, Beyoncé was afraid that Ruth would hate herself too.

So, Beyoncé chose to confess.

I heard from Beyoncé that when Chen Jie was playing basketball at Duke University, he actually lived in Beyoncé’s house. The relationship between the two was very good. Even though Ruth had been mentally prepared for it, she was still surprised.

She really didn't expect that the big star she had a grudge against would actually have such a past with Beyoncé!

This is all such a coincidence.

Immediately, Ruth asked: "Beyoncé, since you and Jayshawn know each other, why have I never heard from you?"

Hearing Ruth's question, Beyoncé showed a hint of resentment on her face: "When I met you, he had already come to Chicago. After that, we never contacted him again. Now, I don't

Do you know if we are friends?"

Speaking of this, Beyoncé showed a wry smile and shrugged at Ruth.

The meaning is already obvious, that is, I don’t even know if we are still friends, so why am I telling you what he is doing.

After hearing Beyoncé's words, Ruth had her own understanding in her heart.

She looked at Beyoncé's expression when she talked about Chen Jie, as well as the various unclear things in her tone, and guessed that maybe Beyoncé and Chen Jie were boyfriend and girlfriend before!

Although Beyoncé only emphasized that she and Chen Jie have always been friends, Ruth had her own understanding.

In her opinion, when Beyoncé talked about Chen Jie, she always had resentment and longing on her face. How could this feeling be possible for a friend?

Furthermore, if they were friends, why did the two of them live together when Chen Jie was at Duke University?

There is only one explanation, and that is that Beyoncé and Chen Jie were once together.

After that, the reason why Beyoncé no longer mentioned Chen Jie to herself was because Chen Jie came to Chicago. After arriving in such a big city, he was attracted by the feasting and entertainment here, and then coupled with his increase in income, he came into contact with

There must be more women. He must have changed his mind and abandoned Beyoncé.

Beyoncé was abandoned and dumped, how could she take the initiative to bring up this sad incident?

The more Ruth thought about it, the more she felt that her analysis was quite correct.

In her heart, she disliked Chen Jie more and more.

A heartless man!

Ruth cursed Chen Jie in her heart.

He must be a playboy, otherwise, why would he seduce himself after seeing his beauty?

Yes, until now, Ruth still didn’t know that the reason why Chen Jie dated her was not that he was interested in her at all, but just wanted to know something about Beyoncé from her mouth. She still thought it was wishful thinking

Chen Jie just wants to go to bed with him.

Between the previous grudges, the Beyoncé incident, and Chen Jie taking the initiative to hook up with her, it can be said that Ruth already dislikes Chen Jie to the extreme.

In her heart, Ruth secretly vowed that this time, she would give Chen Jie a good deal, teach him a lesson, and vent her anger on herself and Beyoncé.

Her idea of ​​framing Chen Jie became more and more intense.

Of course she didn't know that her analysis could certainly explain why Beyoncé was so disappointed when talking about Chen Jie, but Beyoncé's tone and expression actually had another explanation, that is, Beyoncé had been obsessed with Chen Jie.

Jie is in unrequited love and can't help himself, so he is very sad about it.

Ruth didn't know all this, and Beyoncé didn't say it because she didn't think it was necessary.

Ruth insisted on her analysis and did not know the truth. Her misunderstanding of Chen Jie became deeper and deeper.

After the game, Ruth didn't even go to interview Chen Jie. She attended the press conference and asked Skiles a few questions and LeBron James a few questions. Ruth prepared with Beyoncé.

Back to the hotel.

At this moment, Chen Jie's call came.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked Ruth if she had time tonight.

A sneer appeared on Ruth's face.

Sure enough, the fox's tail is exposed, right?

At this time, Ruth became more and more convinced of her judgment.

Chen Jie must want to go to bed with him.

Otherwise, why did he call today even though he had promised to go back to Chicago to meet again? Moreover, it was still so late after the game, nearly ten o'clock?

There is only one explanation, and that is that Chen Jie was lonely tonight and wanted to be alone, and then he thought of himself.

At this time, it was obvious that there was nothing else to do except go to the hotel and go to bed.

As Ruth thought this, she hated Chen Jie even more.

The misunderstanding deepened again.

Thinking about her plan, it was of course impossible for Ruth to refuse Chen Jie. She told Chen Jie in a voice as calm and without disgust as possible. She had time tonight and asked Chen Jie what he wanted to do.

Chen Jie didn't think much and directly asked Ruth if she could come out and waited for him at the entrance of the arena.

When Ruth heard Chen Jie's words and heard the anxiety in his tone, she became more firm in her judgment.

"Of course I have time, then just wait for me and I'll be there right away!" After Ruth said these words to Chen Jie, she hung up the phone.

The sneer on her face became even stronger.

When many reporters were talking together tonight, they all speculated that Chen Jie's abnormal performance today was due to some relationship problems with Li Ming'er. Then they all decided to support Chen Jie in tomorrow's report.

Ruth was also present at the time, so of course she knew what these reporters were discussing.

In her opinion, if a player performs abnormally, he will basically be bombarded by the media immediately.

But why do the media still support Chen Jie when her performance is sluggish?

Is it because you are afraid that he will settle the score later?
