Chapter 23 Because of you

 When Hulay's car approached the gate of the Madrid Pirates training base, the fans who were originally on both sides of the road poured onto the road excitedly.

Fortunately, Hu Lai was prepared and slowed down the car in advance.

Or perhaps the fans rushed onto the road after seeing him slow down.

However, they did not completely block Hu Lai's path, but ran on both sides of the car.

At the same time, he shouted loudly to Hu Lai in the car:

"Mr. Golden Ball! Mr. Golden Ball! Mr. Golden Ball!"

Hu Lai, who was in the car, waved to them with a smile and slowly moved the car closer to the gate.

The cheers didn't disappear until he drove into the training base.

This scene appeared in the news report at night.

Li Qingqing turned to look at the picture on the TV screen and joked: "How do you feel, 'Mr. Golden Ball'?"

"I was really shocked at first and thought it was a bit exaggerated," Hulay said. "Then I told them about it in the locker room. The captain told me that I was actually the first person to win the award while playing for the Pirates.

The Golden Globe Awards... I can understand why they are so excited."

"Yes, you are not only the first in China, the first in Asia, but also the first among pirates." Li Qingqing said.

"The club came to me later, hoping to get my authorization."

"What authorization?"

"I agreed to let them make a copy of my Ballon d'Or trophy, and then they would put the copy in the club's room of honor."

"Did you agree?"

"I agreed. Anyway, it's a replica. If I put the original, I won't agree. The original must be left to my mother."

Before Hulay won the Golden Globe, Xie Lan made an agreement with her son. If he won the award, the trophy would definitely be placed in a museum.

So after Hu Lai and Li Qingqing returned to Madrid from Frankfurt, they asked Song Jiajia to take a photo of the two of them holding trophies at home and posted it on social media. The two most important trophies and other trophies were all taken by Song Jiajia and

His assistant was smuggled back to China.

Although Hu Lai's villa in Madrid has a lot of advanced security technology, for Xie Lan, no matter how high-tech it is, it is not as high as the sense of security given to her at home. She often sees those who say that a certain star goes out to play, and then

News that the home was stolen.

So she always couldn't wait to ask Song Jiajia to help bring those trophies, medals and other human flesh back to China, and then put them in the temporary exhibition room in the community where she lived.

For this reason, Song Jiajia traveled frequently between Spain and China, and thanks to the trophy, she had a lot of Xie Lan's hometown dishes, which was a real treat.

"There is a joke on the Internet saying that your museum may not be built yet, and the design plan will have to be revised." Li Qingqing laughed.

"Why?" Hu Lai asked curiously.

"Because I'm afraid I won't let it go enough."

Hu Lai waved his hand: "That won't matter...unless you put your trophy in too. Hey, why don't you consider putting your trophy in too?"

Li Qingqing laughed: "Husbands and wives are buried together, what do you think? Married couples are buried together?"

"Why not?"

Li Qingqing said seriously: "Not now. We are just boyfriend and girlfriend, but not a real couple yet, so it is impossible for my trophy to be put in your museum. And... why must it be put in your museum? I want it

Put it in my museum too!”

Hu Lai slapped her hands: "My mother is really good at predicting things!"

"ah?"

"She told me that in the museum project, a special piece of land has been set aside, just waiting to build a museum for you! When the time comes, our museums will be next to each other, and you can visit two museums with one ticket. It will be a great deal!"

"What else did mom say?"

"My mother also said..." Hu Lai paused, "She asked us when we plan to get married?"

The room suddenly became quiet.

Li Qingqing said nothing.

Hu Lai looked at her and then asked: "Your father...coach, are you still unwilling?"

Li Qingqing shook his head: "He didn't say whether he was willing or not. Of course, I didn't dare to ask. I think it's good that he didn't object to me being with you. I don't dare to push it too far."

"So actually you don't know what he is thinking?"

"Um……"

"Okay, I understand." Hu Lai nodded, "I'll ask myself the next time I go back."

"Ah?" Li Qingqing was a little surprised.

"I can't let you ask me about this kind of thing, right? I'll ask it when I return to China after this season ends."

Hearing Hu Lai's words, a smile gradually appeared on Li Qingqing's face. She nodded and said: "Okay."

But then she frowned again: "No, you better not ask after this season is over..."

"Why?" Hu Lai was puzzled.

"There will be a World Cup next summer, and I don't want to affect your status."

"Hey, what's the impact of this..."

Before Hu Lai could finish his words, he was interrupted firmly by Li Qingqing: "It won't work anyway."

"Okay... then I'll say hello after playing in the World Cup!" Hu Lai stopped insisting upon seeing this.

"Yeah." Li Qingqing didn't object this time.

"But before that I have to ask you..." Hu Lai looked at Li Qingqing and asked word by word, "Qingqing, will you marry me?"

"I do!" Li Qingqing answered decisively without hesitation, and then she asked: "What about you? Are you willing to marry me, Hu Lai?"

"Of course I do!"

The answer was also decisive and without hesitation.

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

"I feel like we can save money on the officiant on our wedding." Hu Lai joked.

"The wedding..." Li Qingqing looked up at the ceiling, "It feels so far away."

"Have you ever thought about what your wedding will be like?" Hu Lai asked curiously.

"No." Li Qingqing shook his head.

"No?" Hu Lai didn't believe it. "Isn't it said that girls all fantasize about their own weddings?"

"Who did you listen to?" Li Qingqing rolled her eyes at Hu Lai. "How could I have such thoughts when I was a child? When I am older, I train and compete every day, and I would never expect it. Do you think that the training in a professional football school is just playing house?

Is it? The amount of training is very heavy. When I return to the dormitory every day, I don’t even want to take a shower, I just fall asleep..."

After hearing this, Hu Lai interpreted the content differently.

He widened his eyes and asked in surprise: "So I am your first love?!"

Li Qingqing didn't expect Hu Lai's angle to be so tricky. He didn't follow him at first. After reacting, he blushed and said: "So what?!"

"No, no." Hu Lai waved his hands repeatedly. "You are also my first love!"

This time it was Li Qingqing's turn to stare wide-eyed: "You lied!"

Hu Lai pointed at his face: "Do you think a girl like me can like me?"

Li Qingqing quickly explained: "No... Oh, I mean you haven't liked anyone else before?"

"Really not." Hu Lai also shook his head, "I used to think only about football. Girls were not interested in me, and I was not interested in them either."

Li Qingqing thought about the first time he met Hu Lai. The man in front of him could only think about how to steal the ball from his feet, making excuses, pretending to be pitiful, and doing whatever he could.

He really loves football and his success is a given.

So why do I like him?

It is precisely because of the light in his eyes about football...

Li Qingqing thought so, supported her chin with her hand, tilted her head slightly, and looked at the man in front of her with a smile.

Overlapping with the image of the boy in his memory, his appearance has changed slightly, but his temperament has not changed at all.

"What are you looking at?" Hu Lai asked strangely.

"You always say that you are lucky to meet me. But Hu Lai, I am also lucky to be able to meet you." Li Qingqing did not answer the question directly, but said this.

"When I returned to Dongchuan from Quanshun Football School with my father and transferred to Dongchuan Middle School, I had almost given up on football. If I hadn't met you, maybe I would have concentrated on studying and not done so well in the exam.

university, and then find a not-so-good job after graduation..."

Li Qingqing told the story of the past, which was a journey she had never mentioned to others.

How could Li Qingqing, the hope of the Chinese women's football team and the number one star of the world's women's football team, have such a decadent past?

But it really does.

She did hesitate on whether to continue playing football.

Until she met the clumsy football boy in the backyard of her new home.

"When I saw you loved football so much, I thought... people like you have never thought of giving up, why should I give up?"

Hu Lai was quite moved at first, but when he heard Li Qingqing's words, he looked confused: "What the hell? A person like me? What am I like?"

"Is the body disabled but the mind strong?"

Hu Lai: "Hey..."

Li Qingqing didn't hold back and burst into laughter: "Just kidding, just kidding... But I really thank you, Hu Lai. Because of you..."

Hu Lai continued: "Warming the four seasons?"

"???"

This time it was Li Qingqing's turn to be emotionally incoherent...

※※※

PS, I will start updating orders tomorrow. Although the epidemic in Chengdu is still there, it has been basically controlled and there is no lockdown. As long as you have nucleic acid, you can go out, so I decided to take my wife and children to play.

Therefore, there will be only one update starting from tomorrow. Thank you for your understanding!
