One hundred and ninetieth chapters owe three lifetimes
"... In a Europa League semi-final that ended early this morning, Leeds City, where Chinese player Hu Lai belongs, defeated London Bridge 2:1 and reached the Europa League final with a total score of 5:3. This was also the first time
Once a Chinese player appeared in the European finals... Hulay did not score in this game, but he assisted his teammate Dominic Laski to score in the 73rd minute, helping Leeds City seal the victory...
…”
The girls of the Chinese women's football team who were training at the Hongfengling Base finished their training for the day and came to the base restaurant for dinner when they saw the news about Hu Lai.
When this news appeared, almost everyone put down the tableware in their hands and looked up to read the news seriously.
After reading it, we started discussing it.
Xu Wen looked around the familiar Hongfengling Restaurant and sighed: "I suddenly thought of an old thing..."
Others asked curiously: "What old thing?"
"A few years ago, we trained together with the Chinese Olympic team at Hongmaple Ridge. Do you still remember?"
This women's national football team has gone through personnel changes and several rounds of rotations. Many people who were in the team have now left, and many people who are in the team now have not yet joined the national team.
So when Xu Wen mentioned this matter, many people had confused looks on their faces, and only a few people suddenly realized: "Oh oh oh! Remember, remember! It was the time we participated in the East Asian Cup and trained here.
That was four years ago..."
"That was the first time Hu Lai was selected for the national team. I remember that some people said that he came to the Olympic team as Guan Xinyan's backup..." Xu Wen continued to introduce, but her words were interrupted.
Already.
Because someone asked:
"Who is Guan Xinyan?"
Xu Wen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that she didn't know how to introduce Guan Xinyan, because she hadn't heard about Guan Xinyan for a long time.
Fortunately, not everyone knows who Guan Xinyan is. Someone explained for Xu Wen: "I used to play in Shanhailanyue. He was quite talented and was very promising. But later, his development was not as expected, and now he went to the Chinese League One."
Already..."
"Going to the First Division?" Xu Wen herself was a little surprised when she heard the news.
"Yeah. But it is said that he can't play in the Chinese League One, and the long-term substitute... is basically useless." The player who said this sighed, feeling sorry for Guan Xinyan from the bottom of his heart. After all, his talent was outstanding at the beginning.
. Every time such a player is eliminated, it is a huge loss for Chinese football.
Xu Wen didn't care what happened to Guan Xinyan now. She waved her hand: "Guan Xinyan was still very good at that time, the number one player in the National Olympics. But he didn't come to the East Asian Cup. When Hu Lai came, some people said that Hu Lai was working for Guan Xinyan.
A spare tire. Even before the East Asian Cup, some people on the Internet said that Hu Lai was selected to participate in the East Asian Cup because he gave money to the leaders of the National Olympic team..."
When she said this, someone in the audience asked in surprise: "Send money? Does Hu Lai still need to send money?"
At the same time, some people burst into laughter.
Hearing this laughter, Xu Wen said: "Look, you all think it's funny now that Hu Lai had to stuff money into the Olympic team. But at that time, people did believe it. After all, Hu Lai at that time
Lai is still a nobody... Looking back at what happened back then, it's very interesting... I feel like I'm witnessing history!"
"Xu Wen, when you talk about this, I remember that when we were friends with the Olympic team, Coach Yan kicked the hat in the last game. In the end, only Hu Lai got the kick..."
As soon as Xu Wen heard this, she took the arm of Li Qingqing next to her: "Isn't this all Qingqing's idea? Qingqing, honestly, you deliberately created opportunities for Hu Lai, right?"
Li Qingqing waved his hand: "No, no. It's impossible for me to know that he can definitely hit the target..."
"Stop pretending. You and Hu Lai had known each other for a long time, but you ended up pretending that you didn't know each other in front of us... You hid it so deeply, Qingqing!" Xu Wen and her teammates joked about Li Qingqing.
Li Qingqing's cheeks were slightly red, and she stopped explaining. She knew very well that she must not explain at this time, and the right choice was to lie down and let the ridicule go.
But she had to admit that her teammates were right, she was indeed hiding deep...
But there is no way.
In that situation, if everyone knew that he and Hu Lai knew each other, it would actually bring trouble and controversy to Hu Lai.
Unlike now, the reason why she has not made a public relationship with Hu Lai is just to consider her father's feelings, and she does not have to worry about attracting criticism from other people.
Because her sweetheart is already a great hero.
Every step he takes is creating the history of Chinese football.
He is the first Chinese player to win the Premier League championship, the first Chinese player to win the Premier League Golden Boot, the first Chinese player to win the World Cup Golden Boot, and now the first Chinese player to reach the European finals.
…
Even Li Qingqing herself does not have these honors.
Hu Lai was chasing Li Qingqing in the past, but now Li Qingqing feels that she will have to work hard to catch up with him in the future...
But Li Qingqing didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
On the contrary, she was happy.
The more successful Hu Lai is, the more it shows how good her vision was at the beginning?
At the same time, she also hopes that Hu Lai's success can change her father's previous impression of him to some extent, so that when she finally goes to have a showdown with her father, she will be able to avoid his objection...
After playing this World Cup, Li Qingqing will go back home and have a special talk with her father to tell him about her relationship with Hu Lai. Then she will find an opportunity to make it public. After all, they cannot hide it from everyone all the time.
When I was training at Hong Maple Ridge, I had some difficulties.
What difficulties can you have from now on?
Xu Wen no longer made fun of Li Qingqing, but continued to sigh: "...I can be regarded as someone who watched Hu Lai grow up step by step!"
Li Qingqing smiled slightly when he heard his friend's emotion.
I am it!

"... After the match between Leeds City and London Bridge, the two teams that entered the Europa League final in Paris came out. The championship competition will be between Leeds City from the Premier League and Seville from La Liga.
The story unfolds among Asian navigators..."
Lilith's eyes were attracted to Hu Lai's wrist in the news video, because she saw a very familiar bracelet on it.
She remembered that she had seen a red rope ring in Qingqing's place.
But how to determine whether it is the right one?
Thinking of this, Lilith paused the video and then enlarged the screen.
Although the picture quality deteriorated and the picture became blurry, she could still vaguely see three threads of different colors in the middle of the bracelet...
Tsk tsk!
Lilith sneered when she saw this detail.
You still lied to me that there is nothing between you?
You even put on a couple bracelet, why don’t you say you don’t have anything?
Are all Chinese people so dishonest?
Or... is this a little fun between the two of them?
Do they enjoy the mysterious feeling that "the whole world doesn't know that we are actually together"?
It's a pity that I, Lilith, have seen through all your little thoughts!
Hum hum!

"Look, let me just say the lucky bracelet works! You guys did successfully reach the Europa League final!"
Li Qingqing sent a somewhat blurry screenshot of the news video to Hu Lai and said happily.
"Hey, don't tell me, it's really like this... We beat London Bridge home and away, which even our boss found strange. After the game yesterday, we discussed it in the locker room for a long time, as if something really happened somewhere.
What force is helping us..."
Hu Lai was talking nonsense, because there was no such thing at all. Clark didn't think there was anything surprising about the double play at London Bridge, and the Leeds City team did not discuss this matter.
The reason why he said this was that he hoped to prepare Li Qingqing mentally in advance.
Because he is convinced that this bracelet can really change luck.
So if Li Qingqing encounters a lot of good luck in a competition, he won't be surprised.
"Hey, the power in the world is me!" Li Qingqing claimed credit. "How about it? This bracelet is not worth ten meals or something?"
When Hu Lai saw Li Qingqing's words, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Sister, I already owe you so many meals, and you still need these ten?"
"It's bad, why isn't it bad?"
"By the way, haven't you ever heard of the saying, 'A lot of debt means no worries'? Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to repay it?"
"Don't be afraid. If you can run away, a monk can't run away from the temple! I know where your home is!"
Hu Lai first sent an emoticon of a black man’s question mark, and then said: “Good guy, is this still possible?!”
Li Qingqing held her cell phone and laughed so hard.
After laughing, she typed: "Getting to the Europa League final is worth ten meals. If you win the Europa League in the end, then this bracelet is worth...a hundred meals!"
"Hey! Isn't this inflation too exaggerated?"
"Oh, don't be stingy. Champion of the Europa League! Isn't it worth a hundred meals? If you really did it, you would be the first player in China and the second player in Asia!"
However, after she sent this sentence, she did not get a response from Hu Lai quickly, which made Li Qingqing a little confused: "Why? Can't bear to part with it?"
"No, I was thinking just now. If I wear this bracelet and win the World Cup...how many meals will it be worth?"
Li Qingqing was stunned when he saw this line of text. He didn't expect Hu Lai to think of this.
World Cup champion... He still remembers his goal!
Thinking of this, Li Qingqing bit her teeth lightly, lowered her head and replied on the phone: "If that's really the case, you will owe me a lifetime of food, Hu Lai!"
Hu Lai: "No!"
Hu Lai: "Three lifetimes. I will owe you everything in this life, the next life, and the next life!"
