Xie Lan kept giggling while holding her mobile phone. After laughing, she simply lay down on the table and hammered the table with her hands.
Hu Lixin smiled so hard that he looked at her helplessly while holding his job: "Your smile is too low!"
"Hahaha... don't you think it's funny?" Xie Lan asked, suppressing laughter.
"It's funny, but I don't want you to laugh like this. I feel like you will die laughing..."
It is now half past nine in the morning, and they are having breakfast, but because Xie Lan smiles so exaggeratedly, it is almost impossible to eat the breakfast.
Although they got up in the middle to watch a Champions League game, they didn't sleep until noon and still got up at nine o'clock.
Of course, getting up at nine o'clock cannot be considered early, because they usually get up at seven o'clock. But for them who watched the Champions League game, this time cannot be considered late.
Hu Lixin teaches children to play football in primary school. He doesn't have to go to school in the morning. Unless there are any special circumstances, he always has lunch at home before going to school.
Xie Lan was still having breakfast at home at this time and did not go out, so he was already late.
But she had already informed her director in advance that as long as there was a game for her son Hu Lai, she would go to work half a day late the next day.
The director agreed without saying a word.
Now Xie Lan's class is becoming more and more casual, almost like a retired person, but he doesn't leave his job.
Her employer actually doesn't want Xie Lan to leave. After all, having the mother of a Chinese football hero working in their employer is also a matter of pride for their employer.
Now that she was already late, she was not in a hurry to go to work, so she ate breakfast in a comfortable mood and browsed Weibo, wanting to see what those "shady" netizens on the Internet had to say about the game.
Then I saw a big discussion on Weibo about her son having dinner with Zhang Qinghuan.
There is a special topic on Weibo about this incident, called "A murder caused by a meal."
Just reading this title will make people confused, but at the same time, they will be very curious and have no idea what it is about.
After clicking in, I discovered that it was actually related to a football match.
If you look closely, you will be impressed by the name. It is simple and crude, but it also points to the core of the matter very subtly.
"Just for a meal, even the super wealthy would dare to kill you!"
"No, is Hu Lai really just one bite away?"
"False foodie: I ate five bowls of rice, ten steamed buns, and two soybean paste elbows today, and I feel like I'm not full yet; real foodie: What? Can you get a free meal if you win Catalonia? Fuck Catalonia.
!!”
"I know they may not be serious, but they just can't help but laugh. What should I do? Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!"
"The logic of this matter is impeccable! Zhang Qinghuan's Saria failed to win the Barcelona derby in the end, so Hu Lai stepped forward and avenged Zhang Qinghuan. So, isn't it reasonable for Zhang Qinghuan to invite Hu Lai to dinner? So I declare
This is true, Hu Lai’s universe exploded just for this meal, he scored a hat-trick and helped Leeds City defeat Catalonia United!”
"Losing for such a reason... I really want to know Catalonia's opinion on this matter!"
"Catalan United: Are you polite?"
The Internet is full of joy.

"... Catalan United suffered a minor upset at their home court last night. They actually lost 2:4 to Leeds City despite being widely expected before the game... As last season's Premier League champions
, Leeds City is considered to be the weakest Premier League champion in history, and is also considered to be the weakest among the eight seeded teams in the Champions League this season. And their results in the Champions League seem to prove this view after defeating Catalonia United.
Before the game, they played four Champions League group matches, winning only one and losing all the remaining three... It was under such circumstances that when Leeds City defeated Catalonia 4:2 away from home, it seemed
So incredible. It can be said that half of Europe was shocked last night!
"Leeds City's victory also makes the battle for first place in this group full of suspense. Tonight Vesuvius will challenge Bay Lighthouse away from home. If they can beat their opponents, they can compete with Catalan United in the final round.
First in the group...but that's not the most important thing. In addition to the victory itself, what caused a huge response after the game was their main striker Hu.
"Hu completed a hat-trick in this game, making himself the first Chinese player to score a hat-trick in European competitions (including the Champions League and Europa League). He once again became a football hero in their country...
But that's not the most important thing...
"After the game, Hu had a party with Zhang Qinghuan, his national teammate who played for Sarria. He also forwarded a Facebook post from Zhang. The Facebook content was a photo of him and Zhang. The photo was actually nothing... In the end
The important thing is that what Zhang said on this Facebook page inadvertently revealed a very key message, that is, this dinner was agreed in advance. As long as Leeds City can defeat Catalonia United, as a Sarria player,
Zhang will treat Hu to dinner...
"Zhang is the main midfielder of the Chinese national team, but in the entire European football world, he can still only be regarded as a 'nobody'. Because of this Facebook post, he has entered the field of vision of more people. There are a lot of 'good things' coming to him."
The comments section of this Facebook page was flooded with followers, all saying that they finally found the important reason why Leeds City was able to achieve an incredible upset in the away game!
"That's... to attend this dinner date!"
When Tony Clark saw this, he finally couldn't help laughing.
While laughing, he also said to his assistant coach Sam Landier: "I really didn't expect that we defeated Catalonia United in the away game and Hu scored a hat trick. However, the most eye-catching news after the game was actually
It’s this meal…ha!”
"Do you believe what is said on the Internet? Is this meal really stimulating to Hu?" Randhir asked.
"He did suggest to me that after the game against Catalonia, the whole team would stay in Barcelona for one more night..." Clark said, rubbing his unshaven chin. "And I told him at the time that unless we win against Catalonia...
Thai Union, otherwise I will not agree. The result... you have also seen it."
Hearing this, Randhir's eyes widened and he murmured in an incredible tone: "It's really unbelievable... He did it just to have dinner with his friends... This is actually true!"
Clark smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not. In fact, the truth of the matter is not important at all. Anyway, everyone is willing to think this way now, so let it go. Besides...Sam, he defeated me fiercely just for a meal.
Super wealthy, isn’t the story itself cool?”
"Okay..." Randhir finally saw that Tony Clark was on Hu Lai's side unconditionally. He would support and believe anything that was beneficial to Hu Lai.
He thought about Clark's words.
Performing a hat trick for a meal... seems to be more of a gimmick.
It’s no wonder that even traditional media are now hyping up this matter. The influence of that meal is no longer limited to the Internet.

"Hu, did you really make an appointment with Zhang before the game to have a meal after winning against Catalonia?"
When the Leeds City players' plane landed at the airport, they were quickly grabbed by reporters as they walked out of the terminal, and many of them were directed at Hu Lai, who had scored a hat-trick.
The questions they asked were basically related to current hot topics.
Hu Lai smiled slightly when he heard everyone's answers: "Of course it's true, I made a reservation for the restaurant right after I arrived in Barcelona!"
After speaking, he seemed to be afraid that no one would believe it, so he took out his mobile phone, opened the booking confirmation text message, and showed it in front of the camera.
On the text message receipt for the restaurant reservation, there was a date of dispatch, which was indeed Monday, the day Leeds City arrived in Barcelona.
This thing can't be faked.
When the reporters saw this text message, their eyes lit up! It’s true!
Many of them thought it was a boring hype after hearing about it before, but now it seems that this meal was indeed finalized a few days before the game.
In this way, even if Hulay did not use a hat trick to help the team defeat Catalonia United just for a meal, at least it can show that he is full of confidence in defeating Catalan United away from home. What a great publicity point.
!
Nowadays, no one will doubt the voices on the Internet. Originally, some people thought that it was just the conjecture of the bad guys on the Internet...
Now there is not only text message evidence of Hu Lai's restaurant reservation, but the team's head coach Tony Clark also testified for him.
Also at the airport, he told reporters an unknown "story":
"...I don't know if it was really because of this meal that he was in such good shape...but I remembered an interesting thing. He had privately suggested to me on the first day he arrived in Barcelona, hoping to have a good relationship with Canada.
After the Thai Union game, the team was able to stay one more night in Barcelona.
"At the time, I actually didn't know why he made such a suggestion, because he knew very well that every time we played a Champions League away game, we flew back that same night... Now I understand, it turned out that he wanted to get together with friends...
After all, it is not convenient for him to go out to have dinner with friends before the game.
"To be honest, I didn't want to agree, but I couldn't refuse directly because it was not in line with my style of doing things, so I thought of a way to politely refuse him. I told him that if we can beat Catalonia United away from home, then I will
We agreed to his request and stayed one more night in Barcelona... Unexpectedly, we actually won! And Hu won three dollars in the game..."
At this point, Clark reached up and covered his face.
With both witnesses and material evidence present, this case can come to an authoritative conclusion:
Yes, Catalan United did die because of the meal agreement between Hu Lai and Zhang Qinghuan!
This game, Hu Lai's hat trick, and this meal... together will become a good story in world football and be widely circulated!
