Li Qingqing was woken up by the message tone on her mobile phone.
She reached to the bedside table and took out the mobile phone with the charging cable plugged in.
In a daze, I saw a news pop up on the lock screen:
"Good news: Leeds City won the Europa League! Hu Lai is wearing a five-star red flag..."
Her sleepiness disappeared instantly.
First unplug the charging cable, then turn over and unlock the phone in a more comfortable position.
There are several unread messages on WeChat.
When she clicked in, she saw that some were sent to her by Lilith and some were sent by Hu Lai.
Let’s look at Hu Laifa’s first.
The first news was a photo. In the photo, Hu Lai, wearing a T-shirt commemorating the championship, was sitting in the locker room, holding the Europa League cup in his hand, smiling brightly at the camera.
Li Qingqing noticed that the red rope ring she gave him was tied around his right wrist.
So she smiled knowingly.
Continuing to read below, there is a message from Hu Lai:
"From now on, please call me European Champion!"
"A surprise for you!"
"handsome or not?"
Although he knew that Hu Lai might have fallen asleep at this time, or he might have been celebrating all night and had no time to look at his phone, Li Qingqing still replied: "Congratulations, Mr. Champion!"
After replying, she downloaded and saved the photos Hu Lai sent to her to her phone, and then looked at what Lilith sent her.
"I followed my promise and went to the scene to cheer for Hu!"
Below is a selfie of Lilith in a box at the World Cup Stadium in Paris.
"Qingqing, I saw a handsome guy in the box. His melancholy profile fascinated me to death...I forgot to cheer for Hu for a moment..."
Under this sentence, Lilith sent a photo that was obviously taken secretly.
Li Qingqing took one look at the "handsome guy" in the photo and was stunned:
Isn’t this Luo Kai?!
He actually went to watch Hu Lai's game?
Is he so inconsiderate?
What Li Qingqing didn't expect was that Luo Kai actually met Lilith...
What a coincidence.

As soon as Xu Wen opened her eyes, she saw Li Qingqing lying on her bed, holding a mobile phone in her hand and reading...
She was a little surprised: "Are you awake?"
"Ah...just woke up." Li Qingqing put down her phone and looked at Xu Wen.
Xu Wen sighed: "I really didn't expect that I would see you lying on the bed playing with your phone after waking up!"
"I really just woke up..."
"Why don't you get up when you wake up..." As soon as Xu Wen finished speaking, she realized what she was doing. She suddenly raised her upper body from the bed and asked slightly excitedly: "What's the result of the Europa League? Did Hu Lai win?"
?!"
"We won." Li Qingqing replied with a smile.
"Hey!" Xu Wen cheered, but then she realized that Li Qingqing was not very excited. "Did you get up secretly in the middle of the night to watch the live broadcast?"
Li Qingqing rolled his eyes at her, shook his head and said, "Of course not, what are you thinking?"
"Then why do you look so calm?"
"Is this something without any suspense?"
"How can this not be suspense..." Xu Wen decided to ignore her and use her mobile phone to surf the Internet to read the news.
But not long after she watched it, she exclaimed: "Hu Lai actually touched the trophy before the game!?"
Then she looked at Li Qingqing: "Qingqing, do you know?"
"I just found out from your mouth."
"Uh...why are you so calm?"
"Because he has already got the trophy. Even if he touches the trophy before the game, it doesn't matter."
When Xu Wen thought about it...it was really like this.
The reason why everyone cares so much about this matter is simply because they think touching the trophy before the game is a curse. Now that Hu Lai has won the championship, this curse has naturally been broken.
A curse has been broken, so what else is there to care about?
So she continued to watch, and not long after, she exclaimed again: "Hat trick?! Hu Lai performed a hat trick!?"
Having said this, she raised her head and looked at Li Qingqing. Li Qingqing nodded to her: "Yes, I heard it from you too."
"Why do I feel like you don't care at all..." Xu Wen frowned.
Li Qingqing smiled and said: "Anyway, you are here to help me finish the report. It is just like listening to the news, so I will just listen to you."
"Hey!" Xu Wen rolled her eyes at Li Qingqing and continued to read the news.
Soon she took a breath and her eyes widened.
Li Qingqing raised her eyebrows.
But Xu Wen had nothing to say.
"Say it." Li Qingqing had no choice but to remind her.
"I won't tell you! Just take a look if you're curious!" After saying that, Xu Wen actually put down her phone and jumped out of bed. "I'm going to wash up!"
Li Qingqing, who was lying on the bed, sighed and honestly found the game highlights on the "Goal" website.
Start looking seriously.
Sure enough, she saw the scene when Hu Lai reached out to touch the trophy during the entrance ceremony before the game. She grinned.
She didn't know why Hu Lai did this. Maybe he wanted to be different from others, or maybe he wanted to tell everyone that touching the trophy before the game would not be cursed...
Li Qingqing was noncommittal about this. She didn't care much about the various interpretations of the outside world on this matter. Because she shouldn't use common sense to speculate on Hu Lai.
After a simple appearance ceremony, the screen cut to Hu Lai's first goal.
A sudden long shot outside the penalty area caught the Sevilla Navigator off guard.
Then the Navigators not only equalized the score before the end of the first half, but also completed the lead.
In the second half, Kamara helped Leeds City equalize the score, and then the game fell into a deadlock.
During this period, both sides had several shots that appeared in the highlights, but they didn't cause any trouble.
What's more important is that Hu Lai basically doesn't appear in the collection.
Until the 88th minute, he suddenly appeared in front of Sevilla Navigator!
Killer!
Seeing this, Li Qingqing sighed slightly, feeling sorry for missing the live broadcast.
How excited would she be if she saw this ball during a live broadcast...
Now, she already knows that this is not a real kill.
Behind this ball there is another ball...
But when he saw Hu Lai's third goal, Li Qingqing was so shocked that he sat up from the bed.
After relying on his speed to eat two Sevilla Navigator players alive, he hit the football into the goal from outside the penalty area... She had never seen such a goal from Hu Lai before!
Especially that speed... If this goal had been scored by Li Qingqing, it could only be said to be ordinary.
But that’s Hu Lai!
When did you get this speed?
Li Qingqing exited the video, switched to WeChat, and typed to ask: "What happened to the third ball? Why do I feel that your speed has become faster?"
After asking, she realized that there was a six-hour time difference between herself and Hu Lai, so she couldn't get a quick answer after sending it.
Since everyone is sitting up, let’s just get up.
When Xu Wen came back from washing up in the bathroom, she saw Li Qingqing getting dressed and asked, "Have you finished reading?"
"Well, I saw it."
"Hat trick! Hu Lai is the first Chinese player to perform a hat trick in the Europa League final, right? That's amazing..."
Li Qingqing shook his head: "No."
"No?"
"He is the first Asian player to score a hat-trick in the Europa League final."
Xu Wen gave her a blank look: "Tsk!"
Li Qingqing laughed and got out of bed to wash up.
Xu Wen picked up her phone and read online comments about the Europa League final.
"...Hu Lai proved with practical actions that we Chinese are atheists and do not believe in evil at all!"
“When Julay touched the trophy before the game, some Sevilla Navigators fans claimed that Julay was a legend of Navigators. Now I really want media reporters to interview those Navigators fans and ask them if they are still willing to accept it.
Hu Lai is their celebrity..."
"Whoever wants to say that touching the trophy before the game will lose the championship again will slap him in the face with Hu Lai's hat trick!"
"Julay is so mean! After the game, the Spanish media asked him why he still had the speed to counterattack like that at the last moment. Guess what his answer was? He actually said: 'Because I touched the trophy before the game! I
I think the Europa League has brought me good luck and strength! 'Hahahahaha! According to the Chinese reporters present, the Spanish reporter's expression at that time was simply wonderful!"
Xu Wen burst out laughing.
Li Qingqing in the bathroom was also laughing, and she was smiling happily because there was running water, so she didn't have to worry about Xu Wen outside hearing her cheerful laughter.
Good thing, Hu Lai!
She waved her fist at herself in the mirror, with a bright smile on her face that she couldn't hold back.

"... In the Europa League final that ended early this morning, capital time, Hulay's Leeds City finally defeated the overlord Sevilla Navigator with a score of 4:2... Hulay completed his hat-trick in this game
The trick was the biggest contributor to the team's final win... At the same time, he also became the first Asian player to perform a hat trick in the Europa League final... After the game, Hulay was elected the best player in the Europa League final. In addition,
He also became the top scorer in the Europa League this season with 13 goals..."
"A hat-trick in the Europa League final..."
Qin Qi, who had just returned from morning training with his father Qin Lin, stood in front of the TV, watched all the news about Leeds City's championship, and then complained to his father Qin Lin:
"Damn it, I missed such a wonderful game!"
Because his father Qin Lin did not allow him to stay up late, he did not watch the live broadcast of the game early this morning.
Qin Lin is very strict with his son who has entered the Anton Shining Star youth team. Whether it is football training or life details, he has already held his son to the standards of a professional player.
"Do you want to watch the game?" Qin Lin asked.
"Of course I do!"
"Simple. If you try hard to play football in Europe in the future, you won't have any jet lag when watching European games."
Qin Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect his father to say that. After realizing it, he asked excitedly: "Dad, are you willing to let me go to Europe to play football?!"
"As long as you have the ability, why wouldn't I want to?"
Qin Qi made an ambitious decision on the spot: "Okay! I will definitely try to go to Europe as soon as possible to join Brother Hu and the others!"
Mother Wang Yuan came out of the kitchen with breakfast and rolled her eyes at her son: "You, first try to play in the Chinese Super League with Flash Star."

Hu Lai slept and woke up naturally. He said he woke up naturally, but in fact, it was just an hour later than his usual time to get up.
After waking up, he didn't rush to get up. Instead, he lay on the hotel bed and picked up his phone to see who had left messages for him in the past few hours.
In fact, after winning the championship last night, his WeChat almost exploded and he received congratulatory messages from many people.
Including Uncle Yong’s, Brother Huan’s, Fatty Song’s, and my mother’s.
Except Li Qingqing.
Hu Lai knew that Li Qingqing did not watch the live broadcast, so it was impossible to give him blessings immediately. He understood this.
But it was already afternoon in China, and Li Qingqing must have known about it. He just wanted to see what Li Qingqing would say.
Unlocking the phone, clicking on WeChat, and sure enough, I saw the message from my pinned friend Li Qingqing.
"Congratulations, Mr. Champion!"
Seeing this sentence, Hu Lai grinned.
I don’t know why, but such a simple sentence seems to be comparable to his excitement of holding the cup last night.
When you are satisfied in your heart, continue reading.
"What happened to the third ball? Why do I feel that you are getting faster?"
Hu Lai didn't expect Li Qingqing to be so observant, but he definitely couldn't say that he used [unfitting sneakers] as a prop. Instead, he put all the credit on the bracelet that Li Qingqing gave him:
"The lucky bracelet, it's the lucky bracelet you gave me that brings good luck! I personally tested it and it worked. The so-called curse of touching the trophy didn't work on me... I'm telling you, you must wear it during the World Cup.
!”
Not long after, Li Qingqing replied with a smile: "Are you up?"
"I just woke up and I'm still lying on the bed. What are you doing?"
"I'm getting ready to go to training in the afternoon. If you come back later, I won't be able to see you until after training..."
Then Li Qingqing sent a photo, which was a selfie of her wearing training clothes in front of the mirror in the bathroom.
She also asked: "Is it beautiful?"
"AWSL" Hu Lai posted an emoticon of his hand covering his heart.
"I'm not going to be poor with you, I'm going to train!"
"Go, go, cheer for the World Cup!"
Morikawa Junpei came out of the bathroom to wash up and saw Hu Lai lying on his side on the bed holding a mobile phone with a happy smile on his face.
