Chapter 56 'Mistake of the Century'

 Li Qingqing had a dream. He dreamed that he and Hu Lai went to the tropical rainforest for vacation, and ended up encountering cannibals.

The two of them ran wildly through the jungle, but they couldn't get rid of the cannibals' pursuers.

The rumbling war drums seemed to be beating right next to their ears, never getting quieter or disappearing.

It even resonated with my own heartbeat, and for a moment people couldn't tell whether it was the cannibal's war drum or my own heartbeat.

I ran like this for who knows how long, but I still couldn't get rid of the pursuers.

With Li Qingqing's physical condition, he felt exhausted.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a missing gasp around her.

Could it be that Hu Lai was caught?

She quickly turned around to look for her, and sure enough, there was no one beside her!

After Li Qingqing was frightened, she suddenly woke up.

Lying on the bed, still breathing heavily, she was stunned for several seconds before she realized that the frightening moment just now was that she was dreaming...

Then she showed a relaxed smile, took a long breath and closed her eyes, wanting to sleep for a while longer.

But she immediately opened her eyes again and turned her head to look to the side.

Sure enough, the bed next to her was empty.

This is not a dream, her boyfriend is indeed missing!

Then Li Qingqing listened carefully and heard a sound coming from the backyard downstairs.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Like a war drum, one sound.

Li Qingqing rolled her eyes and finally knew why she had that dream for no reason.

She got out of bed, opened the door to the bedroom balcony, walked out to the terrace, and then lay on the railing, looking at her boyfriend who was practicing basketball below.

Hu Lai kicked the football against the wall of the backyard, and that's how the sound of "bang bang bang" sounded like a war drum.

Then he raised his left foot again, trying to stop the rebounding ball... No, he was trying to slice the ball.

He probably wanted to rub the football behind him, but he failed and the football flew straight to the right side of his body.

Seeing this scene, Li Qingqing went back to the house and took out his mobile phone, walked out, recorded a video of Hu Lai practicing, and said at the same time: "Look at this guy, after playing in the Champions League last night, he got up early to practice here...

…Hey, aren’t you tired?”

She asked loudly at the end.

Hu Lai in the camera stopped moving, turned to look at her, and then laughed: "Are you up?"

Li Qingqing ended the recording, clutched her cell phone, and continued to lie on the railing of the balcony: "I just had a nightmare. I couldn't find you in the dream, but you are here."

"What nightmare?"

Li Qingqing did not answer the question, but asked back: "Why are you practicing that again? Didn't you test it in the game? It's very difficult to do it."

In last night's Champions League match, Li Qingqing watched Hu Lai's attempt fail.

"I know, it needs the right time, right place and right people." Hu Lai didn't take it seriously.

"Then you still practice? Are you too energetic?" Li Qingqing teased.

"What? I just want to be more prepared. Opportunities are for those who are prepared. When the opportunity really comes, I have to be prepared, otherwise I will be blind," Hu Lai said.

After saying that, he continued to practice.

Li Qingqing continued to lie on the railing and continued to watch him train.

After watching Hu Lai's failures several times, she suddenly reminded her: "Don't always think about rubbing the ball out first and then turning around. Why don't you try rubbing the ball while turning around?"

Hu Lai stopped and looked back at her: "Turn around and rub the ball at the same time?"

He did not wait for Li Qingqing to answer him, but saw the latter turning around and walking back to the bedroom.

Soon Li Qingqing reappeared in front of him in pajamas, pointed at the football and said: "You always want to rub the football first, but then the movements are inconsistent. Although I have never seen anyone do what you said

But I think it must be a very coherent action, so you should do the turning and rubbing the ball at the same time."

"Turn and rub the ball at the same time?" Hu Lai chewed on this sentence while trying to recall in his mind how Bergkamp performed this set of actions.

But it is a pity that because he has not experienced that scene in person, he only saw related videos on the Internet later, and has not studied it carefully, so he still does not know what happened to Bergkamp at the moment he touched the ball.

How exactly is it done?

"Also, if you want to create that arc that goes behind you, in addition to kicking your feet forward, you can also kick them backwards." Li Qingqing continued. "It's like playing table tennis.

It’s the same as the ball. If you swing the racket and slice the ball like this, will the ball fly in the direction you swing the racket? No, it will go back like this..."

Li Qingqing waved his arms while talking, imitating the slicing action of a table tennis player.

"Yeah..." Hu Lai reacted. "I mean it always feels awkward to do this. It's hard to master the specific timing and strength of touching the ball."

Hu Lai gave a false kick forward.

"I thought it was because my ball-handling skills were not good enough, but in fact it is not a problem of ball-handling ability, but a problem of method..."

"Are you still practicing?" Li Qingqing asked.

Hu Lai shook his head: "No more practice, it's time to make breakfast."

"How about you practice again? I'll do it." Li Qingqing said.

Hu Lai shook his head: "It's okay. I already know the method, so I'm not in a hurry. Let's have breakfast. I'm hungry."

After saying that, he walked towards the house first.

Li Qingqing smiled behind him and followed him back into the house.

※※※

A video of Hu Lai getting up early in the morning to practice ball in the backyard was posted by Li Qingqing on his Douyin and Tik Tok accounts.

They occasionally publish some daily life videos on this short video platform. Now it is routine for celebrities to use short video platforms to promote themselves and maintain fans.

After all, fans will also be curious about what the daily lives of celebrities are like.

Short videos satisfy their curiosity very well, bring them closer to their idols, and thus unite them more closely around them.

Moreover, both Hu Lai and Li Qingqing have signed agreements with major short video platforms, and posting short videos is also stipulated in the contract.

As usual, Li Qingqing's video attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was released.

But unlike the positive feedback in the past, this time there was a bit of noise.

Although Li Qingqing is Hu Lai's girlfriend, a considerable number of fans who follow her are also fans of Hu Lai. But she is also the star of the Madrid Kings women's football team, so her videos will be viewed by many Kings fans both at home and abroad.

See.

The previous videos were actually pretty good and didn’t cause too much of a storm of public opinion, but today’s video happened to be just in time – before it was Hulay’s “stopping error” in the Champions League match, and later it was about Madrid Pirates and the Madrid Kings from the same city.

Derby.

At this sensitive moment, it is easier for everyone to become emotionally excited.

When the Kings fans saw Hu Lai practicing, and the mistakes he made in the Champions League game were exactly the same, they immediately started to cheer in excitement:

"I asked why Hu made such low-level mistakes in the game. It turns out that he practiced hard every day...[laughing and crying]"

"Ouch! What is Hu doing? Replicating the 'mistake of the century' last night?"

Because during this period, Madrid Pirates fans were bragging about Julay's imaginative goals, and some even shouted loud titles like "Goal of the Century."

In response to the Madrid Pirates fans, the Madrid Kings fans called Julay's incredible low-level mistake in the game the "mistake of the century" to intensify their ridicule of Julay.

In the video posted by Li Qingqing, Hu Lai seemed to be reproducing the mistake he made in the Champions League game. Some Madrid fans cut the two together, saying "Let's find fault."

All kinds of "second creations", "third creations" and "fourth creations"... videos appeared on the Internet, not only on short video platforms, but also on the Internet at home and abroad.

Fans who support and hate Hu Lai stick to their respective positions and attack each other online.

It's better in China. After all, Hu Lai's status and prestige in China are very high. There are still very few people who dare to use such a mistake to make a big name for Hu Lai. If there are such people, wait until they do what Hu Lai does.

, I was first sprayed by Hu Lai's fans until I couldn't take care of myself.

But it's different in Europe. As a wealthy club among the wealthy, the number of fans of the Madrid Kings is still far more than that of the Madrid Pirates fans. There are also many people who are dissatisfied with Julay.

These people are not even Kings fans, they are just unhappy that a Chinese can step on the heads of Europeans and Americans in football, so they wish Hu Lai bad luck.

Yesterday's Champions League match, although Madrid Pirates won the game, Hulay also scored a beautiful goal. But they turned a blind eye to it and laughed at Hulay's mistake in the game.

Now Li Qingqing's video seems to have provided them with fresh ammunition, allowing them to attack and ridicule Hu Lai to a new level.

This is probably something neither Li Qingqing nor Hu Lai expected...

When the Madrid derby is about to come, the war between the two teams has already started in advance between the fans of both sides.
