Chapter 60 'Good Guy' Lorraine

  "Hulay!!! The eleventh goal of the season! In the last round of the league, everyone had nothing more to ask for, but he continued to score goals! He helped Leeds City take the lead against Hudes! He

His desire to score goals is still the same as when he first stepped onto the pitch!"

"Listening to the sound at the scene, it was obvious that he conquered the Leeds City fans in just half the game! He was able to perform like this when he was new and not used to it yet. So if he is given a full pre-season

During the training period to prepare for the game and get a good run-in with his teammates, what can he do in the new season? It’s really exciting!”

After Hu Lai scored, He Feng and Yan Kang, who were far away in the studio in the Chinese capital, were also very excited.

 Since today is the last round of the Premier League, they can also put a final word on Hulay's first season overseas.

 Obviously not only successful, but extremely successful.

Hu Lai's goals in this half-season have exceeded the total number of goals scored by all previous Chinese players studying abroad - Qin Lin is not a forward player, he only scored a total of six goals when playing in the Bundesliga.

Before Qin Lin, there were Chinese players who had studied abroad, but that was a long time ago, and most of them had no outstanding performance. Some even went out for a season without even playing a minute of the game, and finally terminated their contract with the club.

He returned to the country as a free agent.

"Hu Lai's performance in Leeds City proves that our outstanding players can definitely gain a foothold in today's European football! I hope to see more Chinese players bravely go abroad and go to Europe in the future.

What’s good for you is also good for Chinese football!”

Xie Lan in front of the TV did not care about the topic of "He is good, I am good, Chinese football is good", she was happy because after playing this league, her son was about to come back from the UK!

Although they had not seen each other for only half a year, she felt like it was three autumns apart this time.

She has already made an agreement with her son on WeChat, asking him to bring back the three best-of-the-match and best-of-the-round trophies when he comes back, so as to enrich the "honor room".

Hullet's goal was the only goal in this relaxed game. With this goal, Leeds City defeated the early relegated Hudes 1:0 at home and had no fighting spirit.

 Ended their 2024-2025 season with a win.

 Fans in the North Stand sang loudly in the stands, and Leeds City players gathered under the North Stand to complete their regular program after every home game - come here to interact with Leeds City fans and thank the fans for their support.

In the players tunnel, Lorraine Peretz, who was substituted early during the game, was wearing casual clothes, leaning against the wall, and looking at the scene on the field.

 He was once one of them.

When the Leeds City players finished interacting with the fans and walked into the players' tunnel, they immediately saw Lorraine Peretz leaning against the wall waiting for them.

So everyone went up to greet him with a smile on their faces, high-fiving each other, hugging each other, patting each other on the shoulders, and saying a few words.

 Then he left.

 Only Quinn remains.

When he saw Hu Lai walking into the corridor, he waved to Hu Lai: "Hu, come on!"

Hu Lai also noticed these two people, and when Quinn called him to go, he went.

 “Let me introduce you to Lorraine.”

Peretz took the initiative to reach out to Hulay: "I had already left before you transferred to the team. But I often hear your name."

Hu Lai shook hands with him, then waved his hand to show humility: "Those are all false claims..."

"That's not a false reputation. Your goals are an important reason why Leeds City can successfully avoid relegation." Peretz said with a smile. "Ten goals, fifteen points, the media would have said it. If it hadn't been for this

With fifteen points, it may be difficult for Leeds City to successfully avoid relegation..."

Looking at this smiling person, Hu Lai found that it was the same smile, and Peretz made people feel much better than Sean Barnett. The former's smile had a warmth that made people want to believe him, and then

The reporter's smile is very professional, but professional is fake.

 No wonder he is so popular...

This first impression is really a plus.

"Lorraine is a very good person. When I transferred to Leeds City, I didn't know anyone. It was Lorraine who was the first to be friends with me and helped me integrate into the team." Quinn met him twice.

After everyone got to know each other, they said, "I am very grateful to him. Without him, I might not be able to stay in Leeds City. But I didn't expect Lorraine to leave Leeds City earlier than me..."

"Farek..." Peretz saw that Quinn was not opening a certain pot, so he quickly reminded him.

 But Quinn shook his head and turned to look at Hu Lai: "I once complained about your joining and was dissatisfied with your arrival because I thought you squeezed Lorraine away."

"It has nothing to do with him, Farek. You know, before he came, my performance in the team already made the club want to sell me..." Peretz explained for Hulay, and then he turned to

Hu Lai apologized for Quinn: "Farek is such a person. He is a bit straight-forward and has a bad temper, but he is not bad... It would be better if you had more contact with him..."

 Hu Lai smiled and nodded, interrupting his defense: "I know, Lorraine."

Quinn was a little angry at Peretz's words. He frowned and waved his hand at Peretz: "Lorraine, don't talk!"

Then he turned to Hu Lai and continued: "No matter what you think, that's how I saw it at the time. And I have been staring at you, wanting to see what ability you have to squeeze out Lorraine. Now I'm convinced

,Hu, I admire you. You are indeed better than Lorraine in scoring goals!"

Peretz next to him had a black line on his head: "As for Farek, although I say you are straightforward, you don't need to strengthen your personality in this aspect..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he laughed first.

Quinn also laughed: "I'm telling the truth. Have you ever scored a hat-trick in Leeds City?"

 “Stop talking...” Peretz covered his heart.

Hu Lai also laughed when he saw the two good friends joking.

Then he said: "I can understand your mood, Farek. Because I also said goodbye to my friends. I also have very good friends in the Chinese team, but now they are tens of thousands of kilometers and eight miles away from me.

Hours of time difference.”

The two people looked at him at the same time, and Peretz raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "You will also have very good friends here. Leeds City is a small team, and the advantage of a small team is that it is not that complicated.

In the locker room relationship, everyone gets along very well. Even the most difficult person to get along with has been conquered by you..."

 Speaking, he nudged Quinn next to him with his elbow.

 “Go to hell, Lorraine!”

Peretz said to Hulay while resisting his friend's "attack" with his hands: "I still want to thank you, Hulay."

 “Why do you want to thank me?” Hu Lai was surprised.

 “Because you helped Leeds City avoid relegation successfully.”

Hulai was even stranger: “But you are no longer a Leeds City player.”

"Yes, but I was. I played four seasons at Leeds City and I have feelings for this team. Everyone here is good, so I wish them well. Like this...

..." As he spoke, Peretz stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around Quinn's neck, pulling him in front of him.

"Faryk's bad temper will never be better in Leeds City no matter which team he goes to. He bought a house here and brought his wife over. He has obviously regarded this place as his own.

Home. So I want to thank you. If Leeds City is really relegated, many people's futures will change, including his."

Quinn broke free from Peretz's restraints and said angrily: "I also have many teams who want me, okay, Lorraine?"

“But they all want you to play as a centre-back. Only in Leeds City can you play your favorite full-back.”

 Quinn stopped talking.

Seeing that Quinn calmed down, Peretz turned to Hulay again and said goodbye to him: "I asked Farek to introduce you to me, because I wanted to say thank you to you in person, and I also hope you can forgive Farek.

Lake's unkindness to you..."

Hu Lai waved his hand quickly: "I have never been dissatisfied with this, Lorraine. I said I can understand him."

Peretz was still smiling: "That's good. It's time for me to go. I wish you good luck in the Premier League. I hope I have a chance to return to Flanders again."

 He patted Quinn again, turned and left.

Quinn did not go up to see him off, but stood there with Hu Lai and watched him leave.

 When they could no longer see Peretz, Quinn said, "Lorraine is really happy."

 “Well, I can see that.”

 “Thank you, Hu.”

 “Then treat me to dinner, Farek.”

Hearing what Hu Lai said, Quinn turned his head and glanced at Hu Lai: "I'd better pass a few more balls to you..."

“Ah, isn’t it? Are you so stingy?” Hu Lai complained.

“You don’t seem to have the right to talk about me, Hu?”

"Why?"

“Charlie said you are the stingiest person he has ever seen.”

Hu Lai, who felt he had been victimized by the scandal, cursed: "FUCK! Charlie is a bitch!"

 Isn’t it just that you didn’t invite him to dinner?

 The question is, is that bit of Sean Barnett gossip worth a meal?

 Speaking of treating guests, by the way, the boss also said that he would treat himself to Chinese food...

 At the beginning, we agreed that we would have five goals and one meal. Now I have scored eleven goals, so that’s two meals!

  ※※※

Not long after Hulay and Quinn returned to the locker room, head coach Tony Clark, who attended the post-game press conference, led his coaching team into the locker room again.

 Then he expressed his gratitude to the players on behalf of the coaching team.

“…I want to thank you for your efforts and your persistence in training. This result belongs to all of us.” Clark had a smile on his face.

"Tomorrow the whole team still needs to gather for training and conduct half-day recovery training. After the training, there will be a physical examination. After the physical examination, it will be officially off. I hope everyone has a happy holiday, but don't relax too much.

After all, when you come back, we will have to do another physical examination for you. If someone's physical fitness has dropped too obviously, be careful - I promise you that we will definitely compete in the Premier League next season.

Don’t be absent easily at a time like this.”

 After saying that, Clark turned around and left with the coaching team, returning the locker room to the players.

Hu Lai originally wanted to ask the boss about the dinner treat, but the boss left without giving him a chance to communicate privately.

Not only that, when Hu Lai was talking just now, Hu Lai kept staring at the boss, but found that the other party did not look at him, as if he was deliberately avoiding...

No way?

No way?

The head coach of a dignified team won’t keep his word, right?

 Hu Lai decided to wait until tomorrow after the resumption of training and go directly to the boss to ask him to fulfill his promise.

 Let the boss invite him to dinner no matter what. It is impossible to refuse the payment.

 No one has ever owed him food and failed to pay it!
