Fox in the Penalty Area

David Miller put his hands in his jacket pockets, raised his collar, and then drew his neck to block the cold wind from the corner of the street, and walked quickly through this alley.

There are several children in front of them playing football against a wall.

There is a goal painted in white paint on the wall.

They divided into two teams and competed against each other with the goal of shooting the football into the "goal".

When David saw this, he walked around from the side, not wanting to disturb the kids playing football.

At this moment, a child volleyed his foot and kicked the football into the "goal."

After a muffled bang, he jumped up happily, then turned his head and ran towards David Miller.

Then David saw the child running with a 180-degree turn, crossed his hands and swayed, and stopped in front of him, doing a "simplified version" of Hulai celebration...

"嘢!!" He also shouted. "I did it!"

The other children yelled dissatisfiedly: "No! You didn't jump up at all! Hu did this action but jumped very high!"

"That's it, and your final wave of hands was not neat enough! The sense of strength is far worse!"

"Don't say me, you have the ability to be one, maybe it's not as good as me!"

The teenagers quarreled for a celebration.

David Miller quickened his pace and left them.

He walked to the end of the alley, turned around, and walked another fifty meters into the "White Rose" bar.

As soon as I entered, I saw a video interview with Hulai by Leeds City TV on the TV hanging on the ceiling.

Hu Lai in the shot is wearing Leeds training clothes and sitting in the club gym, with various fitness equipment in the background.

"...Yes, I rejected the Madrid Kings because I want to come to Leeds... I am definitely not saying this to please you guys. I tell the truth. I think I can get more opportunities in Leeds. The coach here is very good. Understand me. It turns out that I came right."

Hu Lai on TV grinned at this point.

David retracted his gaze, ordered a beer from the bartender behind the bar, and then walked to his friends.

Everyone is sighing.

Two more people did not come.

No one asked why they didn't come, because the reason was obvious.

Leeds have won three consecutive victories for the first time this season... No, it is the first time they have won three consecutive victories since they were promoted to the Premier League.

The outstanding performance of the team is not only reflected in the score, but also in the scene.

When the team plays well and can win, most people naturally want to return to the stands.

Before, everyone did not go to the scene to watch the game. On the one hand, it was because of dissatisfaction with the club's series of operations.

If the club had done so much after the show, the team's performance would have been better than when Lauren Gurry was in charge, I believe these fans would not make trouble.

After all, no matter who is the head coach, the most important thing is that the team has good performance. Otherwise, if the team is relegated, even if Lauren Gurry is still the team's head coach, the fans will not give him a good face. At that time, it was these fans who would be the first to stand up and ask the meritorious coach to leave get out of class.

David Miller walked over, no one greeted him, he didn't care, he didn't want to greet others. He sat down on his own and started drinking without a word.

A group of Leeds fans with mixed moods sat at a few tables.

On the TV hanging over their heads, Hu Lai still said that he already had a little local Leeds accent in his English:

"'Lizli'? Of course, I know. The first day I came to the team, someone taught me how to do it." After speaking, Hu Lai raised his arm and knocked his right fist in his heart. Two clicks.

※※※

Yong Jun parked the car on the side of the road, turned his head and said to Hu Lai who was about to drive the door: "Have fun, but don't be too crazy. I will pick you up when I arrive."

"Uncle Yong, it's very contradictory to say that. You have to be happy but not too crazy... Then how do you play?"

"You can grasp it yourself." Yong Jun looked at Hu Lai, who was wearing a sports brand sweater and jeans, and smiled: "You are not trendy at all. Look at your teammates."

He pointed to Charlie Porter who was welcoming his teammates at the entrance of the nightclub in front of him. The latter wore a bright pink jacket with a green shirt and orange leather pants on his legs. Even the colorful neon signs of nightclubs can't cover his coquettishness.

Hu Lai grinned: "Uncle Yong, do you call the traffic lights'chao'?"

Yong Jun himself was amused.

Hu Lai waved his hand to him and pushed the car door down: "Goodbye, Uncle Yong. I will call you when it's time."

"Okay, pay attention to the image." Yong Jun added again, reminding him that with his three five-goal performances, he has a high degree of attention in the eyes of the media and should not do anything out of the ordinary to damage his image.

Hu Lai gave him an "OK" gesture.

Yong Jun kept seeing him hugging Charlie Potter in the car, then walked into the nightclub, and then turned around and left.

After winning the three-game winning streak, the atmosphere inside the Leeds City team was unprecedentedly relaxed, so someone asked their teammates to come out and relax. After all, considering the next match with the fifth-placed warship port in the league, Leeds may be more fortunate. If you don't take the opportunity to relax now, maybe you won't have a chance after losing to the warship port.

As a major contributor to the team’s three-game winning streak, Hu Lai is naturally unable to stay out of the matter. Charlie Porter even said that if Hu Lai does not come, everyone will have a very bad time. After all, this party is nominally playing. The banner of "Welcome Hu Lai", if the protagonist does not go, how can everyone cheer?

So when Hu Lai came back to the Yong Jun after receiving the invitation, Yong Jun agreed to Hu Lai to attend the party.

First of all, this is a normal social event, and it is also an essential part of European teams. As a newcomer to the team, it is impossible to refuse this invitation. Unless you want to create a "unfriendly" and "not easy to get along with" personality in the minds of your teammates, and then wait to be squeezed out, don't simply refuse, especially the first party invitation.

Secondly, Hu Lai is also a young man, and it is unrealistic to ask him to cultivate himself like a middle-aged and old man himself.

Young people have to live like young people.

When he was in Flash Star, there were so many friends around him, and there was no problem with his friend Tiantianzhai. But after coming to the UK, there are only two people here, he and Yong Jun. Yong Jun is a middle-aged man and has no common topics with young people. Hu Lai will inevitably feel lonely. Let him play with his teammates, maybe it can ease the homesickness a little bit.

※※※

As soon as Hu Lai entered the nightclub, he was rushed into the card seat by his teammates who had arrived long ago.

When he saw Pete Williams in the crowd, Hulay was still a little surprised, and he leaned forward: "I thought you would not come."

Williams frowned and looked at him: "Why won't I come?"

"Because you always look serious?" Hu Lai began to imitate Williams' tone and said: "Today is a very important game, we must win! Ah, everyone, good work, congratulations, kick out It’s a wonderful game!"

His brilliant imitation caused other teammates to laugh.

Amidst the laughter of the big guys, Williams launched a counterattack: "Really? Honestly, Hu, before I saw you, I thought Chinese people were restrained, gentle and shy. You ruined my thoughts on Chinese people. Imagination."

"Where am I not restrained or gentle or shy?" Hu Lai asked back.

"Where are you introverted, gentle and shy?" Williams asked back.

Hu Lai raised his hand: "Stop. Let's not loop indefinitely, or we should be scolded again... I just want to say that there are many people in China, and everyone is different. For example, I know one person, he It’s the same position as yours, Pete, but with a completely different style of playing. He may be more open than you foreigners, changing to a woman a day. I once saw three women fighting for the night when they were eating out. Go to bed and fight with him..."

Don't talk about Pete Williams, the other Leeds City players heard Hu Lai say so, they couldn't help but open their mouths.

Charlie Porter even exclaimed: "You lie, Hu!"

Hu Lai sneered: "What good is it for me to lie to you? It's someone else, my friend, not me."

Potter lowered his head and thought, as if it was really like this...

Others brag about how good they are, and how good Hu Lai is about his friends. What's the point?

"I also know a friend, most of his fans are female fans, tens of thousands. Every time we go to an away game, his female fans will surround him at the airport, I have personally seen female fans Because of his smile, he almost fainted with excitement..."

"So... exaggerated?" Joe Taylor tried to imagine such a scene, feeling incredible.

Hu Lai curled his lips: "In China, this is normal. You know, how many people are there in China? More than the population of your entire Europe combined. So anything put in China is bigger than you are used to. ."

Goalkeeper Mikhail Vandevin remembered what Houle had said to him when he first came to the team, football director Nevin Bauer was very impressed, so he asked: "Hu, you really have 20 million fans on the Internet in your country. ?"

Hu Lai replied: "Ah, now it is thirty million."

He also took out his mobile phone to confirm it, and then corrected his statement: "38.6 million."

Van der Ven took a breath.

Hu Lai also said nonchalantly: "I am not too much. In China, there are stars with hundreds of millions of fans."

"Hundreds of millions..." Van der Wen couldn't figure it out.

"So, Pete. China is very big and there are many Chinese people, but don't think that Chinese people are all carved out of the same mold." Hu Lai finally turned his eyes to Williams.

Williams curled his lips: "How do I know if you are talking nonsense?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Lai's arms came up: "Oh, if I have a chance to introduce all of my friends to you in the future, you will know if I am talking nonsense."

The two were fighting, and everyone noticed that a few girls outside were looking at them.

When they looked at Hu Lai's location, their eyes lit up and happily shouted: "Hu! It's Hu! It's really him!"

Then they squeezed up: "Can I take a photo with you, Hu?"

"I want your signature, can you, Hu?"

Hu Lai was shocked-I didn't apply the charm essence lotion when I came out today...

He has been in Leeds for more than a month, and it is not that he has taken photos with the fans and signed, but they are all for male fans, especially Chinese students.

He really didn't expect to meet his female fans in the nightclub.

After the initial astonishment, he agreed to the demands of these female fans.

Stand up and take photos with them one by one, and sign them.

These female fans waved goodbye happily after getting the autographs and photos, leaving the other Leeds City players who were waiting to get close to these girls very disappointed.

Hu Lai just regarded this as an episode and continued to brag with his teammates. But the teammates were reluctant and insisted on asking Hu Lai to buy them a drink, so Hu Lai had to pay for it out of his own pocket, which calmed the anger...

※※※

As Hulay said, Pete Williams is a serious person. Although he is young, he knows what he wants and how to do it. He was not too involved in playing around, so the party did not last long. At ten o'clock in the evening, Williams asked to end.

Although Charlie Potter was still reluctant, he could only agree. After all, regardless of Williams being young, his status in the team is not low-it can be said that he is probably the oldest one in this Leeds city...

The captain did not come, he was almost the same as the captain.

He has said so, and the others have no objection.

Or even if you want to continue playing, it is definitely impossible to play in this nightclub.

When he walked out of the nightclub, Charlie Potter put his arms around Hu Lai’s shoulders, and whispered in his ear: "How about, Hu? Didn’t you have a lot of fun? It’s okay, we can continue, just change a place..."

Hu Lai took out his cell phone: "I have called my agent, Charlie, he will pick me up right away."

Potter shook his head disappointedly. "It's disappointing. How can you be so boring?"

Hu Lai smiled and said, "Charlie, when will you go to China with me? That is my home stadium. Then I will let you go to my villa party to see and see how interesting I am."

"Your villa party?" Potter's eyes lit up when Hu Lai said that, "What's that like?"

"There is a swimming pool with champagne, delicious barbecue, and beauties in bikinis..."

"Oh yes!" Before Hu Lai finished speaking, Charlie Potter couldn't wait to cheer. "I knew you knew it well, Hu, you really knew it! What then? Go on, then what?"

The other teammates nearby heard Hu Lai say so, they were all very interested, even Pete Williams listened with ears upright.

"Then? Then we played a three-on-three match in the football field in the back garden of the villa, surrounded by beauties in bikini swimsuits. Isn't it fun..."

"Wait, Hu..." The more Potter listened, the more things were wrong, and he raised his hand to interrupt Hu Lai. "You found a group of big girls, dressed in inch, and then...you ran to play a three-on-three match?"

"Yeah, Charlie. Let me tell you, we played so hard amid the cheering of the beauties! We didn't play until almost eleven o'clock..."

"Damn it!" Potter yelled. "You are so perverted, Hu! Run to play football with so many big girls in bikinis? Your brain must be broken, Hu!"

The teammates around all laughed.

Hu Lai spread his hands innocently and asked, "Why is this perverted? Are we going to let the bikini girls go three-on-three, and our group of elders are cheering for them? I think that’s perverted, okay, Charlie ?"

Potter was speechless and shook his head constantly: "I don't want to talk to you anymore, Hu... You ruined my beautiful fantasy of a villa party!"

Others were still laughing, some of them couldn't even straighten their waists, they could only squat on the ground with their stomachs.

Until the Yong Jun drove the car and stopped, some of them were still laughing.

Yong Jun looked at the happy Leeds City players outside, and said with satisfaction to Hu Lai, who waved goodbye to his teammates and got into the car: "It looks like you had a good evening."

"Yeah, everyone is very happy, except Charlie." Hu Lai turned to look at Potter who pointed his middle finger.

"Ha!" Yong Jun also saw it, and knew that Hu Lai and Charlie Potter might be the closest pair in the team, so he didn't really think that Potter and Hu Lai had fallen out, just as it was. A joke between two friends.

"Anything interesting?" Yong Jun asked while driving.

"A few girls came in midway. They should be my fans. They took a photo with me and asked for an autograph."

Yong Jun turned his head and glanced at Hu Lai, who leaned back on the seat back of the passenger seat with his head slightly raised.

"Not bad, Hu Lai." He smiled.

"What's not bad, Uncle Yong..." Hu Lai complained, "Just for this, I also asked everyone in the team to have a drink. The consumption of this bar is really expensive, and I will never come again! "

Yong Jun laughed at the words.

Hu Lai stopped talking, lowered his head and took out his phone to send a WeChat message to Li Qingqing: "What are you doing?"

Soon Li Qingqing replied: "I just took a shower and lay on the bed. How about you?"

"Just finished the party..."

"Yo yo yo!"

"Qie Ke Nao, a set of pancake fruits?"

"Don't change the subject, what party? Are there beauties?"

"Yes, I was pitted!"

"Huh? Tell me!"

"It's a long story..."

"Then speak slowly, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is fine, I have time!"

...

There is no six or seven hours of jet lag, two people’s messages you come and go, flying fast over the English Channel.

Occasionally, Hu Lai's hand touched a piece of paper in the pocket of his sweater. He took it out and glanced at it with the light of the street lamp outside, and found that it was a string of numbers, which should be a phone number.

He thought about it, maybe some woman who took a photo with him at the party sneaked in...

Hu Lai curled his lips on this, then rolled down the car window, crumpled the note in his hand and threw it out.

After doing all this, he freed his hands to continue chatting with Li Qingqing on WeChat.

Dingdong Dingdong, WeChat prompt sound keeps on.

In the driver's seat, Yong Jun concentrated on driving his car without asking who Hu Lai was talking to.
