Fox in the Penalty Area

"...The 30 international footballers selected for the training camp will train intensively in Anton Jincheng on the 15th. At the same time, they will also have warm-up matches with two teams in Jincheng. After the training in Jincheng, the national team The final list of twenty-three people will be announced, and then depart from Jincheng to Shanhai, and then depart from Shanhai to the United States to participate in the 23rd US-Canada World Cup..."

Xie Lan did not watch the live broadcast of the release ceremony of the training list last night, because her son will definitely be selected for the national team training list. Not to mention the training list, even the final 23-man roster will definitely have a place for Hu Lai. So Xie Lan didn't care who was selected for the training list, she cared about other things.

When the news saw this, she picked up her mobile phone and sent her son a WeChat message: "Son, I read the news that the national team is training in Jincheng?"

Not long after, she received a reply from Hu Lai: "Yes, Mom."

"Then Jincheng and Dongchuan are so close, do you want to come back?"

"I want to go home. I have to stay at home for two days before going to Jincheng to join the national team."

Seeing this answer, Xie Lan showed a happy smile on his face, and continued to poke on the phone screen: "When are you coming back? Are you still the same as last year, coming back with Li Qingqing?"

After asking, she stared nervously at the chat interface, her expression was like a gambler staring at a dice rolling and jumping in a casino, her eyes widened, and she kept repeating in her heart:

together! together! together! together...

"Yes, I will come back with Li Qingqing."

"Yeah!" Xie Lan couldn't help but waved his fist.

Hu Lixin on the opposite side heard the movement, raised his head and looked at her in surprise: "Won the Landlord again?"

"You are fighting the landlord! I asked when my son will come back." Xie Lan gave her husband a blank look, and then continued to type with her head down: "That's good, I'm just worried about how to pick you up... just come back with Li Qingqing, Then you can come back in her family's car."

"Look at you, you are so happy when he comes home. I thought you won the card game again..." Hu Lixin laughed.

"Are you unhappy when your son comes home?" Xie Lan asked back.

"Happy, happy, but I won't be so happy that I'll throw my fist again." Hu Lixin shook his head with a smile.

He was right, even after normalizing the relationship with his son, for a person like him who is reserved and not good at expressing, he would not react as excitedly as his wife.

Xie Lan ignored her husband and looked down at her phone. Her son's reply had already been sent: "Ah? Mom, didn't you buy a car? Why can't you come pick me up?"

"Isn't it not long since I bought a car? I'm still not sure about my skills. It's 300 kilometers back and forth from Dongchuan to Jincheng. I'm a skilled person, so I'm afraid it's not safe. You can't have any accidents now. "

"Uh, okay...I'll go talk to Li Qingqing."

Seeing his son reluctantly agreeing, Xie Lan frowned anxiously: Why is this brat not enlightened! Just like a child who doesn't grow up, really!

"Tell me if you have any news." She urged worriedly.

"Okay, I've decided to tell you."

Xie Lan put down her phone after getting her son's promise, feeling relieved. Then she leaned on the sofa with a happy smile on her face.

At this moment, Hu Lixin said suddenly: "By the way, you happened to be driving to pick him up... Ever since you bought the car, I feel that you are addicted to driving. Don't you always want to drive farther? The opportunity has come, from Dongchuan To the Dongsheng Airport in the south of Jincheng, it runs through the entire Jincheng from north to south..."

Hu Lixin didn't know it before, but since his wife drove the car, he discovered that women can also like driving so much:

Stick to driving no matter how much traffic there is to commute to and from get off work. In Xie Lan's words, even if you are stuck in the middle of the road, sitting in your own car with the air conditioner on and listening to music, it is better than being crowded with so many people on the bus. And there is no need to suffer when it is windy and rainy. The car drives directly into the underground parking lot without getting wet at all.

In addition to driving to and from get off work, my wife likes to drive him out for outings every weekend. He has traveled all over Dongchuan and is planning to drive to further places by himself.

Now when she is free, she just watches videos of cycling in China on the Internet, which makes Hu Lixin always worried that one day when he comes back from get off work, he will find his wife is gone, and he left a note saying that he is going to travel in China by bicycle... …

Unexpectedly, Xie Lan shook his head and said, "I can't pick it up, the car is broken."

"The car broke down?!" Hu Lixin was surprised. "Didn't you be fine yesterday?"

"It was broken after driving back yesterday."

"Then why didn't you say it before?"

"I don't want you to worry..."

"Then why didn't you fix it today?"

"It's not a big problem. I asked the 4S shop, and they told me to turn off the engine and let it sit overnight, then restart myself."

Hu Lixin frowned: "What the hell, the car will restart if there is a problem... Isn't this a Tesla?"

"Oh, anyway, don't worry about it, you don't understand anyway." Xie Lan didn't want to talk about it.

"Is it all right now?"

"It should be fine..."

"should?"

"Okay, okay, sure!"

"Okay, why can't you pick someone up?"

"Although it's fine this time, who knows if there will be any problems next time? Usually, I don't care if I drive to and from get off work, but this is going so far to pick up our son. If there is any problem along the way, don't you bother? So Why don't you just pick him up and let him take a taxi back." Xie Lan explained.

Her reason perfectly convinced her husband, and Hu Lixin nodded solemnly after hearing this: "It really should be safer..."

The World Cup is coming soon, and their son, as the core player of the Chinese team, must not make any mistakes. Small bumps and bumps in normal life are inevitable, but at this time, it is really not allowed to have the slightest injury.

After all, there are precedents in world football for players who miss the World Cup for stupid reasons.

"You are still thoughtful." Finally, Hu Lixin praised his wife.

Xie Lan saw the message sent by her son on the phone: "Mom, I have made an agreement with Li Qingqing, we will go back to Dongchuan with her when the time comes, and you don't have to worry about me."

She beamed: "That is!"

※※※

When Li Qingqing met Hu Lai at the airport in Paris, she didn't say anything, but she smiled when she saw Hu Lai, her smiling eyes curved into crescent moons.

"What are you doing?" Hu Lai was baffled by Li Qingqing's laugh, and then laughed too, asking while laughing, "What are you laughing at?"

"Then why are you laughing?" Li Qingqing asked with a smile.

"You laughed first."

"Is there a song you haven't heard, Hu Lai?" Li Qingqing asked with a smile.

"What song is it?"

"You look so funny!"

Hu Lai:? ? ?

Seeing Hu Lai's expression full of question marks, Li Qingqing frowned: "No way, Hu Lai? You really haven't heard this song before? This song was once very popular..."

"What the hell? That's 'you look so good when you smile'!" Hu Lai said angrily. "This has two meanings at all, okay! The original title of the song is to praise others, and you are trying to slander me!"

Li Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and finally realized, but then she couldn't help laughing out loud, until she squatted down covering her stomach.

"Why are you laughing!" Hu Lai was speechless.

"Hahaha! You smile...you look so pretty...and...you look, you look so funny...hahaha! It's a perfect match!" Li Qingqing squatted on the ground and almost beat the ground with his hands.

"What's so good about this? Li Qingqing, your focus is so strange, and your smile is also very strange... Okay, stop laughing, or you will be surrounded by people." Hu Lai, who was wearing a mask, was very helpless. On the floor, someone nearby has already cast a curious look here.

Only then did Li Qingqing hold back her smile and stood up from the ground, but she still had a smile on her face when she looked at Hu Lai: "Congratulations, Premier League champion!"

Hu Lai raised his eyebrows and raised his head slightly: "There are also golden boots!"

"The Golden Boot is too easy for you." Li Qingqing curled her lips, "It's more difficult to win the championship. Winning the championship is not up to you alone."

What Li Qingqing said makes sense. After all, not every team with the Golden Boot in the league can win the championship.

The Golden Boot only needs him to keep scoring goals to have hope, and even if he keeps scoring goals in the league championship, it may not be possible, and it depends on the overall performance of the team.

A striker who can score goals in every game must be able to win the league golden boot. But if he scores goals in every game, but his team loses every game, let alone the league championship, he might be relegated.

Although what Li Qingqing said was reasonable, Hu Lai could only half agree: "Who said the golden boots are easy? Do you know that I was so tired that I almost vomited blood just to get the golden boots?"

"Hehe." Li Qingqing smiled perfunctorily, and stopped talking about this topic with Hu Lai.

From her point of view, Hu Lai is in Versailles, so she won't be a fan of Hu Lai.

"Let's go, check in your luggage and go through the security check. It will take more than ten hours to fly!" She strode forward with her long legs and led the way.

Hu Lai pushed onto the luggage cart and trotted after her.

There were people coming and going in the airport hall, and no one noticed that the Premier League champion, top scorer and women's Ligue 1 champion had just passed by them.
