Fox in the Penalty Area

Hu Lai finally bought the house that the whole family liked.

Including the free area, nearly 200 square meters, four bedrooms, three living rooms, three bathrooms and three bathrooms are also bonus points.

For the Hu Lai family who currently live in a 58-square-meter house, this is the ultimate luxury they can imagine.

They don't even know how to allocate so many rooms.

In the end, except for their respective bedrooms, only one room was agreed on, and that room would be used as Hou Lai's honor showroom, housing all his achievements from the school team all the way to the professional team. Medals of honor and trophies.

Including the championship medal and the Golden Boot trophy of the Anton Cup, the championship trophy, the Golden Boot trophy and the best player trophy of the National Competition, as well as the four trophies and one gold medal just brought back from the Capital Awards Ceremony after the end of this season, as well as the above Rookie of the Season trophy.

Of course, don't forget the championship gold medal, golden boot, and best player trophy he won in the East Asian Cup.

These honors record Hu Lai's football career and are of extraordinary significance to them.

And Xie Lan is sure that his son will definitely not only win these honors, but in his future career, there will definitely be more trophies and medals brought back by his son. Therefore, an entire room must be dedicated to displaying these honorary testimonies.

Instead of putting it on Hu Lai's used desk like before.

Hu Lixin did not object to this either.

So the two parties signed the contract in the sales department that morning.

The house was purchased in the name of Hu Lai's parents, and Hu Lai transferred the money in his bank account to his mother and completely ignored it.

This is mainly because he really doesn't have time to stay in Dongchuan to accompany those procedures. After all, buying a house requires an online signature, and only after the online signature can he go to the real estate transaction center for transactions. This process takes time.

But Hu Lai just didn't have this time.

This is also one of the reasons why he did not choose to take out a loan to buy a house, because it would take longer to get a loan.

Now he gave the money to his mother, and left his parents to do the rest.

The names of both parents are written on the real estate certificate, which can be regarded as a gift from him to repay his parents for their upbringing.

After finishing the matter of buying a house,

Hu Lai is also about to leave home for a long journey.

Before leaving, he went to see Li Qingqing's father, his school team coach.

He originally wanted to invite the coach to dinner, but was rejected directly: "Forget it, I'm afraid of embarrassment when it's just the two of us."

Hu Lai's thick skin would not be embarrassing, but since the coach thought it would be embarrassing, he had no choice but to let it go.

Yes, Hu Lai didn't see Li Qingqing this time.

In mid-December, the first half of the European League hadn't ended yet.

And when Li Qingqing was able to come back for Christmas after the holiday, Hu Lai had already gone to the Olympic team to report on the training camp.

The two of them just missed it perfectly.

But there is no way, this time the U23 Asian Cup is held in China, which is related to whether the Olympic team can participate in the Olympic Games in Madrid, Spain next summer.

Whether it is the leaders of the Football Association or the fans and the media, they all value this very much.

In particular, this Olympic team performed well in the East Asian Cup in March this year. After winning the championship, people have high hopes.

"Then let's just talk about it, Hu Lai. See you at the Olympics!"

"What the hell is the Olympics? Shouldn't you be preparing for the new season at the club?"

"Nong is out of his mind, Hu Lai? I want to participate in the Olympics too!"

"Eh?" Hu Lai stared at Li Qingqing, who was videoing himself on the phone screen, and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing him like this, Li Qingqing knew that Hu Lai must have forgotten: "Your men's football team participates in the Olympics as the National Olympic team, while our women's football team participates in the Olympics directly to the national team!"

Hu Lai suddenly realized that he really ignored this matter... He always thought that to participate in the Olympics, he had to be on the national team, but Li Qingqing was from the national team, so what kind of Olympics did he participate in?

As a result, when Li Qingqing said this, he remembered that it was true. Women's football participates in the Olympic Games as a national team.

"You guys decided on the Olympic quota in the U23 Asian Cup in January, and we decided on the Olympic quota in two stages in February and March." Li Qingqing said.

"Oh, yes, yes!"

"So Hu Lai, you must be qualified for the Olympics!"

"Don't just talk about me, don't you too?"

"Hehe, when did our women's football team miss the Olympics? But when was the last time your men's football team participated in the Olympics? By the way, it was the Beijing Olympics, and that was all eleven years ago!"

Hu Lai was said to have no temper, who said that women's football is awesome?

"Anyway, I don't care, we agreed, we must meet at the Olympics..." At this point, Li Qingqing on the screen suddenly gave Hu Lai a little thumbs up.

"what?"

"Pull the hook!" Li Qingqing on the other side of the screen shook her little finger.

"How do you pull the hook through the screen?" Hu Lai felt that Li Qingqing's brain was out of order.

"Retractor! Come on, let me see your fingers!"

Hu Lai had no choice but to give a little thumbs up: "Childish!"

Li Qingqing smiled happily: "Come on, read after me, pull the hook and hang yourself!"

"Hanging on the hook..." Hu Lai said perfunctorily, rolling his eyes.

"No change for a hundred years!"

"No change for a hundred years... As for next year's matter, why not for a hundred years?" Hu Lai couldn't help but complain.

"Then... hang yourself on the hook, see you at the Olympics next year!"

Hu Lai repeated it, then put down his hand.

"I'm telling you Hu Lai, you need some snacks. If you don't come to the Olympics, you will owe me... thirty meals!" Li Qingqing on the other side of the screen also put away her hands.

"Why thirty meals!"

"Did you miss an appointment for a major event like the Olympic Games, which attracts worldwide attention, do you think you owe ten meals worthy of the standard and status of the Olympic Games?" Li Qingqing said confidently.

Hu Lai opened his mouth to speak, but seeing Li Qingqing's head held high, he shook his head again: "All right. But I don't think it's possible for me to miss the appointment."

"Hey, that's good. That's it. We'll see you at the Madrid Olympics next year!"

"Zhiyuan, are you alright?"

Manager Qiu Xinrong got up in the living room and turned his head to look in the direction of the bathroom.

"Here we come..." Just as I was speaking, the door of the bathroom was pushed open, and a tall figure squeezed out from inside, "I was selected for the Olympic team, not you, why do you feel that you are better than me, old uncle Qiu?" Still excited?"

"Am I excited? I'm anxious that you won't be able to catch the plane if you don't go out! Hurry up!" Qiu Xinrong roared at the end.

Only then did Lin Zhiyuan put on his backpack, picked up his suitcase, and ran out the door during the manager's "lion's roar".

"Let me tell you, don't offend anyone when you are on the Olympic team, and keep in mind that you are a complete newcomer to the Olympic team..." Qiu Xinrong, who was driving, took the trouble to tell Lin Zhiyuan that he was really afraid of this Loose youngsters would be a misfit on that team. "Many people in the Olympic team are old teammates who have worked together for many years. It is inevitable that they will form a small group, and it will be difficult for you to squeeze in, so you have to give me..."

Qiu Xinrong glanced through the rearview mirror, and found that Lin Zhiyuan had already collapsed on the back seat. Immediately angry, he yelled: "Sit down for me! Fasten your seat belt!"

Lin Zhiyuan had no choice but to sit up obediently and tie the safety belt on himself: "Listen, listen, Old Qiu Uncle, continue to talk."

"What am I going to say? See how angry you are..." Qiu Xinrong recalled for a while before he remembered, "Oh, that's right. When you joined the South China Tigers, the words you said might offend Hu. Lai. He is now a popular fried chicken in the Olympic team, you have to be careful not to conflict with him, if you really match, take a step back..."

Lin Zhiyuan withdrew his gaze from the car window, staring at the manager's back: "Old Uncle Qiu, take a step back, so why should I step back?"

"Hey, you kid..."

"Don't worry, Uncle Qiu. I'm not an idiot. I went to the Olympic team to play football, not to fight. If that Hu Lai is really upset with me, use football to speak. Isn't he a striker? He advanced my goal Besides, if he can't get in my door, don't act aggressive in front of me." Lin Zhiyuan curled his lips.

Hearing what he said, Qiu Xinrong frowned, but it was hard to refute.

Football really speaks for itself.

Remember when Hu Lai joined the Olympic team, wasn't he also a pure rookie? As a result, because of his outstanding performance in the East Asian Cup, he has now become the main core of the Olympic team. The original core Guan Xinyan was reduced to a substitute.

Speaking of Guan Xinyan, the former Olympic main scorer and top star, it seems that he didn't even make the training list this time...

Chen Xingyi put a soup bowl almost as big as his face on the table, and he drank all the soup in it, not even a green onion left.

"Finish?" asked the father, Chen Hantang, who was next to him.

"Cool!" Chen Xingyi exhaled contentedly, white water vapor came out of his mouth and steamed upwards. "Before going out, you must drink a bowl of old Xie's beef soup."

"Okay, let's go." Chen Hantang got up and walked towards the car parked by the side of the road.

Chen Xingyi turned his head and glanced at the other diners who were burying their heads in the soup like him. Miaomiao white air gathered above their heads, dispelling the severe winter cold.

This is an ordinary morning in Tangdu in winter.

This Laoxie Beef Soup is crowded with customers as usual, and the business is booming.

In order not to delay the next trip, he and his father had to come here early and line up for dinner.

And now that he's finished eating, he can finally embark on the journey.

This has almost become a fixed program and tradition designed by Chen Xingyi himself. Whether he is going to Dashun Golden Arrow or Jincheng, as long as he leaves Tangdu, he will come here to drink a bowl of soup before leaving.

On the one hand, it is because there is no beef soup that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys of Tangdu, and on the other hand, the taste of his hometown always makes him feel full of strength.

Dashun's seafood is delicious, and Jincheng's hot pot skewers are also good, but he still likes the steaming bowl of soup from his hometown the most.

Ding dong, a new message came from the phone.

Chen Xingyi took it out and saw that it was from Hu Lai: "Little Xingxing, have you set off yet? Lao Wang and I have met at the airport in Jincheng!"

Chen Xingyi smiled: "I'm about to take the high-speed rail, see you in Hongfengling!"

※※※

"Little Xingxing can go there by train, and I really want to go to the capital by high-speed train..." Hu Lai said to Wang Guangwei next to him with his mobile phone. The two of them are now walking in the terminal of Jincheng Airport, and the luggage cart they are pushing is full of their suitcases and backpacks.

"He took the high-speed rail and took the plane to us at about the same time." Wang Guangwei said.

The two of them made an appointment to meet at the airport.

"Who says it's time? If you take the high-speed rail, you can use the Internet. You can surf the Internet, but you can't take the plane... How boring!"

"That's true..."

Just as they were talking, the two walked to the designated boarding gate.

Just when they were about to find a place to sit down, Hu Lai froze for a moment, looking at a person not far away.

At the same time, that person also raised his head, and the eyes of the two people just met.

"Fuck, why are you here?" Hu Lai pointed at Luo Kai in surprise and said.

"Why can't I be here?" Luo Kai was upset, "I was also selected for the Olympic team!"

"By the way, I forgot, you are also from Dongchuan..." Hu Lai said something else.

Wang Guangwei smiled: "It's really fate, I didn't expect that we are on the same plane. Luo Kai, where are you sitting?"

"Row eleven."

Wang Guangwei took out his boarding pass and widened his eyes: "I'll go... Hu Lai and I are also in the eleventh row. I am E, and Hu Lai is F."

Luo Kai froze for a moment: "I'm D..."

The three of them were in three seats next to each other in the same row.

"It's really Fate's mother who opened the door for Fate to come home!" Wang Guangwei said with emotion.

"What kind of fate is this?" Hu Lai snorted, "I thought there would be a beautiful woman sitting next to us, but this is it, this is it!"

"What can you do if you are a beautiful woman?" Luo Kai ridiculed him. "Beauty doesn't care about you."

Hu Lai chuckled: "I have Li Qingqing's WeChat."

Luo Kai took a deep breath, trying to calm down his emotions, and then ignored the bitch next to him.

Seeing this scene from the side, Wang Guangwei suddenly felt that the journey would never be boring.
