"Let me tell you, Brother Huan, we are playing hard this time. The purpose is to confuse you!"
Hu Lai was "talking shamelessly" to Zhang Qinghuan who was sitting across the dining table.
Li Qingqing next to her covered her mouth and smiled without saying a word.
Zhang Qinghuan retorted: "Do you believe this, Hu Lai?"
"Believe it, why don't you believe it? After you relax your vigilance, it will be our turn to kill in the King's Cup final!"
Zhang Qinghuan sneered: "Haha, you Madrid giants beat us Saria, do you still need to play dirty tricks?"
Hu Lai looked serious: "We treat all opponents equally!"
Zhang Qinghuan was too lazy to mess around with Hu Lai, so he waved his hand: "Only a ghost will believe you!"
"Hey, Brother Huan, I've told you everything. If you don't believe it, don't blame me for not reminding you if you suffer a loss in the finals."
Zhang Qinghuan: "Haha. You should worry about the league ranking."
He is now a guest at the home of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing. He and Hu Lai just finished a game at noon - because this is La Liga's "Chinese Derby", La Liga officials know how to arrange this game in Spain
It's 12:30 at noon, which is exactly 7:30 in the evening in China. After watching the news broadcast, you can watch the live game without any delay.
In the twenty-seventh round of the league, Saria drew with Madrid Pirates 1:1 away from home.
Hulay opened the scoring in the game to help Madrid Pirates take the lead.
However, the team failed to maintain this one-goal lead until the end, and was eventually tied by Saria's goal.
The only good news is that Hulay's consecutive scoring record in the league has been extended to the 23rd round.
After the game, Zhang Qinghuan did not return to Barcelona with his teammates. Instead, he accepted the invitation of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing and came alone to their home in the northwest suburbs of Madrid. This was after he had been to Madrid so many times.
It's the first time I've been to their home.
He will have "breakfast and dinner" here before returning to Barcelona.
"If you don't worry, what is there to worry about? We are now five points ahead of the Kings. Even if the Kings beat Turias tonight, we will still be two points ahead." Hu Lai waved his hand nonchalantly.
In another game played yesterday, Catalonia United defeated Los Angeles United 2-0 in an away game, temporarily leading the Kings, who have one game less, by one point, and ranking in second place. They are still four points behind Madrid Pirates.
"Hey, that's easy to say. It's just two points, just for one game. Let me tell you, if you lose the league championship, don't blame me! I will never treat you to dinner!"
"Brother Huan, you are waiting here! How much money do you make in a year? Are you short of one meal?"
"You should give this to yourself." Zhang Qinghuan laughed.
"Brother Huan, you are so concerned about our ranking, why don't you stay with us and watch the game between the Kings and Turias before leaving?"
“I won’t be able to leave after watching the game!”
"Isn't that good? You can rest at my house for one night and leave tomorrow. You have also seen that there are many rooms. You can choose as you like."
"Farewell!" Zhang Qinghuan arched his hands.
Li Qingqing interrupted the bickering between the two people: "Brother Huan, when the King's Cup final comes, will you let Sister Juan come to watch it?"
"Yes. I have booked her air tickets in advance." Facing Li Qingqing, Zhang Qinghuan's attitude was much more correct, and she no longer smiled playfully with Hu Lai.
"Hey Brother Huan, are you and the nurse really living in two places?" Hu Lai was also very concerned about Brother Huan's life events.
"Otherwise, what else can I do? She always feels that resigning and coming to Barcelona is my 'burden'. I have persuaded her many times, but I don't think she is eating and using me..." Zhang Qinghuan was also helpless.
Men and women who are passionately in love are inseparable every day, but they still have to live apart in two places.
"Sister Juan is a very independent girl." Li Qingqing nodded in admiration. "But it is true that she has her own work and social circle in Jincheng. When she comes to Barcelona, she will have nothing. Her life will be all about you. I
I feel...it’s really easy for problems to arise over time. It’s good to keep each other independent.”
"I agree, that's why I don't object to her staying in Jincheng." Zhang Qinghuan agreed.
"But we can't always live apart like this, right? Is it possible that we have to wait until Brother Huan retires before we can really be together?" Hu Lai asked.
"She is also learning Spanish and is considering learning other things to prepare for leaving the hospital in the future."
Li Qingqing asked: "Has she decided what to do?"
"not yet……"
Hu Lai heard the conversation between the two of them and suddenly said: "How about we let a young nurse come to Spain to open a massage and acupuncture clinic? Aren't acupuncture, massage, and cupping in our country very popular in European and American sports circles? Who...
Pete (Williams) either posted an Instagram or a photo of him doing cupping some time ago? I remember that there are quite a few players in La Liga who do cupping on a regular basis? There are several of them in our team alone. Ion even showed off to me
The scars on his back must be attributed to the mysterious witchcraft from the East. I suggest that he pull out the Big Dipper on his back and combine China and Japan to make the witchcraft more effective..."
Listening to Hu Lai's nonsense, Li Qingqing burst out laughing.
But Zhang Qinghuan's eyes lit up: "It is indeed feasible!"
Cupping, acupuncture, massage, these traditional Chinese medicine things are very popular in China, and also in Europe and the United States.
In fact, not only football players, but many athletes in other sports also have the habit of acupuncture, massage and cupping.
This includes many Olympic champions.
Their testimonials online have greatly publicized and promoted cupping.
Some people even call this "mysterious Eastern magic".
Regular cupping seems to keep them in good condition, reduce the impact of injuries, and even reduce the chance of injury...
Thanks to the publicity and promotion of these athletes, many ordinary people in Europe and the United States have gradually begun to like cupping, although they may not even know that it is something from China.
Although Sun Juan is a nurse, she also received relevant Chinese medicine training during school.
If Sun Juan doesn't know what she can do when she comes to Barcelona, then opening a Chinese medicine physiotherapy clinic is indeed a good idea.
Li Qingqing also agreed with Hu Lai's proposal: "Okay, Hu Lai! You also have a serious idea!"
Hu Lai was very dissatisfied: "What do you mean by 'having serious ideas'? When have I not been serious?"
Li Qingqing: "You were not serious just now."
Facing Li Qingqing, Hu Lai opened his mouth, but didn't say a word to refute.
Seeing his dumbfounded look, Zhang Qinghuan laughed loudly: "Haha! Qingqing said it well!"
※※※
Before the match between Kings of Madrid and Turias started, Zhang Qinghuan ended the "family banquet" at Hulay's house and embarked on his way back to Barcelona alone.
Before parting, he made an agreement with Hu Lai and Li Qingqing.
After the King's Cup final, I will definitely take Sun Juan and the two of them for a meal.
Even though there was a few hours time difference with China, he excitedly told Sun Juan about Hu Lai's idea on the way home.
Sun Juan can see it as soon as she wakes up, so as not to delay their communication efficiency.
Even when there is a time difference, they have always communicated like this. Unless it is a video, otherwise they just "talk to each other", leave messages separately, and wait until the other person is free to see it before replying.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.
He actually doesn't care how good the business and how much money Sun Juan will make if she comes to Barcelona to open this traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy clinic. The main thing is that Sun Juan can come to him, and at the same time, they both have their own careers and will not appear in life.
There is only each other's situation.
This situation may be a perfect state in some romances.
But Zhang Qinghuan knows very well that in life, this situation is actually not good.
He doesn't want to be someone else's vassal, and he doesn't want Sun Juan to be his vassal either.
How many of those sworn love relationships ended in vain, and how many of them broke down in the middle?
Only if each of us maintains an independent personality can we continue to work together for a long time.
For Zhang Qinghuan, who has a lot of emotional experience, it is not difficult to understand this.
What surprised him was that Sun Juan understood it the same way.
At first, he saw that Sun Juan always had the mentality of a fan, and he was worried that the two of them would not be able to last long...
When did the change happen?
He thought about it carefully, and it seemed that Sun Juan had gradually changed since that trip to Madeira Island.
Become more confident.
He is no longer as attached to himself as before, and he can even take the initiative to ask questions such as hoping to figure out what he can do when he is with him.
He first wanted to travel to Madeira Island with Sun Juan, hoping to let Sun Juan see the real him.
Thinking about it now, the effect of this trip was different from what he originally planned, but the effect was better than he hoped.
Thinking further back, going back even further... Meeting that bitch Hu Lai seemed to be the turning point in his life.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qinghuan laughed.
At this moment, a new message alert came from his mobile phone.
Sun Juan replied to his message:
"That's a good idea!"
Zhang Qinghuan was startled: "You haven't slept yet?"
"Can't sleep, hehe!"
"Why can't you sleep?"
"You guys tied the pirates, you're so excited that you can't sleep, hehe!"
"The competition is all about seven or eight o'clock in China, right?" Zhang Qinghuan made a face-palming expression, "Besides...it's just a draw."
"I don't care! That's amazing!"
"Okay...go to sleep quickly, you still have to go to work tomorrow."
"I will work the night shift tomorrow. Are you still at Hu Lai and Qing Qing's house?"
"I'm out, I'm on my way back to Barcelona."
"Did you have fun talking today?"
"I'm happy. Qingqing also asked you if you would come to watch the King's Cup final. Then we made an appointment to have dinner together after the King's Cup..."
"That's great! I really hope the King's Cup final comes soon! It turns out it won't be until the end of May..."
"It was a good time at that time. The league games were all over. After you come, I will take you to have fun in Spain..."
"Okay! Hehe! I can't wait...will you be annoyed if I drag you to chat?"
"How could it be? I was worried that it would affect your sleep."
"I feel energetic now, how about you chat with me?"
"Okay, I just have plenty of time on my way home... What do you want to talk about?"
"Just talk about the idea you just mentioned. Do you think I can do it?"
"Yes, why not? As long as you have this idea, I will support you."
"Well, I want to try. I don't know if I can do it well... I have to take the time to go back to school and study again. I have learned it before, but now I am not familiar with it..."
Zhang Qinghuan reclined the business class seat of the high-speed train from Madrid to Barcelona slightly, half-lying comfortably, and chatting animatedly with people on the other side of the Eurasian continent.
Time flies between a man and a woman in love, and the two-hour journey goes by in an instant.
When Zhang Qinghuan returned to his apartment in Barcelona, the game between Madrid Kings and Turias had also ended.
Melody scored twice to help the Kings defeat Turias 2-0 at home, regaining second place in the league and narrowing the gap between them and Madrid Pirates to two points.
After Zhang Qinghuan heard about this result, he couldn't help but feel worried for Hu Lai:
They wouldn't really be able to be defeated by the King of Madrid and steal the championship because of this draw, right?
