"Damn it! He actually tricked me!" Xi Tiao's face was full of shame and anger.
There was no way, why did Gu Ran hit the ball 361 times on his first try, while Xi Biao only hit 50 balls at most?
It was Xi Biao who helped Gu Ran onto the seat with his own hands.
As for Gu Ran, he was not just showing off, he was very serious about wanting to do it again.
The dopamine secretion when playing football is really addictive!
Moreover, Gu Ran also wanted to try to push the limits.
This time, he was far from reaching the highest level he had achieved in his previous life.
In the last life, his highest record was 874 balls. Today's score is nearly half of the best score in the previous life.
If we analyze the reasons, firstly, we did not wear suitable sneakers, and secondly, we did not stretch properly before hitting the ball.
But the most important reason is that the body after rebirth still has poor coordination and flexibility, and its physical fitness is also not up to standard.
Being able to bounce more than 300 balls in one breath is actually considered a super level.
However, if you don't do any fancy things, you can calmly bounce the ball with the instep of your feet, and it shouldn't be a problem to bounce the ball five or six hundred times.
Although my physical condition is a bit poor in this life, I am still young!
Being young means being full of energy!
"I'll do it again, I'll do it again!" Gu Ran ran to pick up the ball.
"No need! That's enough!" Xi Tiao said with a red face, "Chinese boy, I admit... you won."
Gu Ran was still confused, "Why did you give up so quickly? Otherwise... what you did just now doesn't count, and you want me to do it again?"
Sophie's eyes widened, she rushed over and pinched Gu Ran hard, "That's enough!"
Rusty Strip covered his face and roared: "It's so insulting! It's not enough for you to insult me once. Are you going to insult me a second time?"
Gu Ran said quickly: "That's not what I meant, I just think... playing football is quite simple."
The request to do it again just now is really not a pretense, this sentence is.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Xi Tiao glared at Gu Ran angrily, "Chinese boy! Don't go too far! Playing football is easy? Huh, don't you just know how to bounce the ball? Bobbing the ball is not everything in football! I admit it,
I am not as good as you at the ball, and I lost the game with you! I am no longer qualified to compete with you Sophie! I am true to my word, and I will never pester her again in the future! But I must tell you today! I,
Rusty Strip, not convinced!"
"Chinese boy, you don't understand what real football is! If you have the guts, just compete with me on a real football field! This competition has nothing to do with Sophie, but is purely between men and men.
Compete! I will let you know what is real football!"
A real football rivalry?
Gu Ran's brows moved slightly.
This is a good way!
If they can win against their main center back in front of the entire football club, then there is a high probability that he can join the school team!
And as long as you join the school team, you will have the opportunity to participate in the All-England High School Student Cup and compete with national-level football experts!
In the process of playing against each other, there will be many opportunities to directly pick up professional football skills!
Thinking of this, Gu Ran immediately smiled calmly, "You're right, Rusty Stripe. Football is not all about playing ball. I really want to know what real football is - so, I accept your challenge. Today is Saturday.
Next Monday, I will go back to the school football field to have a real football match with you."
Rusty Strip gave a thumbs up, "Yes! My brothers from the football club and I will wait for you at the football field! We'll see you on Monday!"
After saying that, Rusty Strip walked up to Sophie again with a sullen expression.
Sophie subconsciously leaned her body towards Gu Ran.
Rusty Strip sighed, "Sophie, I used to love you so much, but it's a pity that we are not destined to be together... Well, can you give me the phone number of your best friend Susanna? The one with the particularly big breasts..."
Sophie's mouth twitched slightly, "...get out."
"Okay, okay!" Rusty Stripe walked away dejectedly with his brothers.
The crowd of onlookers also dispersed amid laughter.
After a while, only Gu Ran and Sophie were left at the door of the coffee shop.
"Let's go." Gu Ran's mind was focused on going home and studying the system rating, and he didn't even look back at Sophie.
After all, there is no audience anymore, so there is no need for "realistic" acting skills.
Sophie's pretty face turned red, and she pretended to be calm and asked: "Where are you going?"
Gu Ran said: "Of course I'm going home."
Sophie's heart was beating wildly!
Did he really want to do that to me?
Ahhhh! Why did I set up the flag of "letting him be at his mercy"?
Sophie stood there with a troubled and embarrassed face, lowered her head and whispered: "But...my parents are at home."
Gu Ran walked a dozen meters away with his head down, not noticing that Sophie didn't follow him, nor did he hear what Sophie was whispering.
"Gu Ran!!!"
Sophie stamped her foot angrily!
Gu Ran then turned around and asked with a confused face: "What's wrong?"
Sophie said bitterly: "You, go to hell!"
With that said, Sophie proudly opened her long legs and walked in front of Gu Ran.
Gu Ran was stunned:
What's going on?
Why did this little girl suddenly lose her temper again!
I didn’t do anything? I just wanted to go home!
Everything is settled, shouldn't we go home?
Looking at the way the little girl walks, the negative emotion level is probably reaching 90 points!
Alas! It’s a pity that I can’t pick it up today!
It has to be after 12 midnight!
Waste, waste!
It seems that in the future, I can’t be like a lowly person who just came to the city and pick up all the bubbles!
Fortunately, when the upper limit is reached, the negative emotion value will no longer show falling bubbles, otherwise, it would be painful!
I wonder if we can discuss it with this little girl Sophie. If you have any anger, you can hold it in until after 12 midnight...
Yes, if I don’t talk to her now, she should probably hold it back...
So, Gu Ran followed Sophie without saying a word.
Sophie was getting angrier as she walked ahead!
Just now in the cafe, they held hands, gazed affectionately, lifted her chin, and held her waist domineeringly, but why didn't they say a word now?
Damn Gu Ran! Stink Gu Ran!
Are you playing hard-to-get with me?
If I, Sophie, ever talk to you again, I will take your last name! Humph!
The two of them walked in the direction of home, one behind the other.
Sophie's home lives in Lingang District, only fifteen minutes away from Costa Cafe.
Sophie's family is considered a local middle-class family. The house is not too big, but the lawn in the courtyard is neatly trimmed and clean.
As soon as Sophie entered the door, she went straight to her boudoir on the third floor.
"Back."
Sophie's father, who was sitting in the living room, just looked up at Sophie, then lowered his head again to read the "Southern Football Newspaper" in his hand.
"Uncle Andrew, good afternoon."
Gu Ran walked into the familiar residence in his memory, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and greeted Sophie's father with a smile.
In the past, he was so polite.
Therefore, in Andrew Turner's eyes, Gu Ran today is no different from before.
Andrew is nearly forty years old, but he is already bald and has a hairstyle similar to Xie Guangkun's.
He was wearing the No. 10 jersey of Southampton, and his fat figure forced the jersey to look like a tights.
"Aha, our Chinese top student is back? What would you like to eat tonight? I'll ask your Aunt Sally to cook it for you."
Sally Turner is Sophie's mother.
Gu Ran said quickly: "Thank you Uncle Andrew, I actually don't have anything in particular that I want to eat."
Andrew immediately turned back towards the kitchen and shouted: "Sally! Gu wants to eat lamb kidney pie! Just medium rare! And grill some oysters! Then make a large portion of mustard and onion mixed with mashed potatoes, and finally a pot of haggis.
pudding!"
Sophie's mother's voice came from the kitchen, "I know! I'll prepare it right away!"
Gu Ran:......
Andrew blinked at Gu Ran, "Gu, are you 17 years old? Let's have some drinks together tonight? There will be a derby match between Southampton and Northampton later, do you want to watch it together?"
Before Gu Ran could speak, Andrew lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "I used 1,000 pounds of my own money to buy Southampton City!"
Gu Ran's brows moved slightly.
The memory of this city derby from the previous life was immediately activated!
During this period, Southampton was only a League One team, while Northampton was a League Two team.
Although they are both from the city of Ampton, Southampton is obviously stronger, and after this season, Southampton will be promoted to the second tier of the British League with second place in English League One——
English Championship.
Northampton, on the other hand, has always been at the bottom of the fourth tier of English League Two, with almost no decent professional players.
This game was a British domestic cup match, so these two teams belonging to different league levels met together.
From a technical point of view, Southampton can completely crush Northampton.
but……
According to the memory of the last life, Southampton will be unexpectedly upset in tonight's game and lose to their city rival Northampton!
This is the information gap advantage of rebirth!
Gu Ran didn't have many memories of unpopular games in lower leagues in his previous life, and this was one of them!
