Fox in the Penalty Area

6Chapter 2: You like it

The community in the early morning was very quiet, except for the chirping of birds, only the footsteps of pedestrians in the community downstairs.

At this moment, the room was quieter.

Li Ziqiang looked straight at his daughter.

Li Qingqing also looked at her father bravely.

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

I don’t know how long it took, Li Ziqiang frowned, put down his hot rice bowl, and asked, “What does it mean to be together?”

“It’s… we played friends together.”

“Playing with friends” means falling in love in An Dongfang dialect.

Li Ziqiang fell into a long silence again.

Li Qingqing didn’t speak either, and continued to pick up a piece of toast and spread butter on it.

After applying it, fold it in half and eat slowly.

Drink milk after eating.

Drank the milk and peeled the eggs.

Li Ziqiang watched his daughter concentrate on peeling eggs, and the figure overlapped with it again.

He actually…has a hunch in this regard.

But when the naivety came, he was still a little unacceptable.

This feeling is like his baby is about to be taken away, and my heart suddenly becomes empty.

The last time I felt this way was when my wife died. After finishing his wife’s funeral, he sat alone in the bedroom, and the big bed that usually sleeps two people was empty. He realized that from now on in life, there will always be one less person by his side.

The sorrow that was temporarily suppressed by the busyness before then overflowed into my heart irresistibly.

At the funeral, he didn’t shed a tear in front of so many people, so he locked himself in the bedroom and cried.

Now, although reason tells him, what the daughter said is completely different from the death of his wife, and the degree is not the same. It is impossible for him to cry bitterly because of this, but his heart is still uncomfortable.

After all, when his wife died, he could still convince himself that there was still a daughter in his life who needed his education and company, and he would never fall.

What his daughter told him today made him realize that in fact, the daughter in front of him was no longer the little girl who stood behind him silently at his wife’s funeral, and bowed her head without saying a word in the face of the comfort of adults.

When she grows up, she has her own thoughts, and she has someone she likes…

※※※

Li Qingqing peeled the eggshell calmly. If she only looked at her appearance, she would think she was very calm, as if she didn’t care about her father’s attitude.

But in fact, she was so nervous at this moment.

She loves her father so much, but what should she do if she says the word “no” from her father?

How can she convince him and let him accept Hu Lai?

Although Hu Lai was his disciple, Li Qingqing knew very well that his father did not like Hu Lai.

I didn’t like it from the beginning.

This attitude cannot be concealed even under the banner of “strict training.”

Even if Hu Laigong became famous now, his father’s attitude towards him didn’t seem to have changed 180 degrees.

It’s just not as severe as before.

Every time Hu Lai sees his father, he is still cautious…

Therefore, it doesn’t seem to be very useful to use Hu Lai’s achievements to convince my father. If my father is the kind of person who changes his attitude when Hu Lai succeeds, then he is not the father in my heart.

Oh, what a headache…

Do you really want to go against the yin, promise your father verbally, and then have a private meeting with Hu Lai in Europe?

This is football, not Romeo and Juliet…

Just when all kinds of weird thoughts started to pop up in Li Qingqing’s mind, she lowered her head to peel the egg and heard her father ask: “How long do you have to peel an egg?”

Li Qingqing looked down at the boiled egg with half of the eggshell left, and explained: “If you cook it, forget to soak it in cold water, the shell is not easy to peel…”

Huh? wrong! Why does dad care about this?

She raised her head to look at her father.

Dad is also looking at her.

“Since when did you like him?” Dad asked.

Li Qingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, at least not saying “I disagree!”

“That time my thigh muscle was strained.” Li Qingqing told the truth, “Hu Lai rushed to Shanhai to see me. He gave me a bottle of ointment that is said to be an old Chinese doctor…that it can cure the strain. But. I know, it’s actually just a placebo. But I’m still very happy that he can come. Moreover, Dad was with you at the time. He was actually very afraid of you in his heart, but he stayed there to make me happy…”

Li Ziqiang knew what his daughter was talking about.

To be honest, Hu Lai was able to come, although he was unexpected but not very surprised. What made him most unexpected was that when he saw that he was there, he stayed and had dinner before leaving, instead of running away…

“…I was injured not long after that day. The place where I was injured is still very painful, but it is my happiest day.” Li Qingqing said, a smile appeared on his face, as if he was back that day.

This sounds very contradictory. What happened to the happiest day after being hurt and painful?

But it was the happiest day.

Li Ziqiang also returned that day. Thinking about it carefully, his daughter did have a smile on her face.

Thinking about it, because his daughter laughed so happily, Li Ziqiang didn’t go deep into the matter of the two of them wanting to meet secretly behind their backs.

Otherwise, if he didn’t come to Shanhai to take care of his daughter, would it be that they were alone in the same room that day?

“…Before that incident, I really regarded him as a friend, a better friend than ordinary friends. But after that incident, slowly…”

Li Qingqing did not go on, because the following content needless to be known.

It’s nothing more than that after that incident, she started to love her, and she had a different kind of affection for the boy around her who always made her happy, and showed up in time when she encountered difficulties.

Li Ziqiang sighed when he heard this.

After sighing, he didn’t speak.

Li Qingqing didn’t speak either, just quietly waiting for the fate’s decision.

“Maybe this is… fate.” Li Ziqiang’s voice was hoarse and low. “Remember what I said when you decided to buy this house?”

Li Qingqing thought for a while and said, “I have grown up?”

Li Ziqiang shook his head: “You like it.”

Li Qingqing looked at her father unexpectedly, but he didn’t expect that his father would agree to be with Hu Lai so easily…

“dad……”

Li Ziqiang did not answer her again, but picked up the bowl again, bowed his head and snored and drank the porridge.

“… Next, let us continue to focus on the transfer scene around Hulet… Just yesterday, the famous Spanish football journalist Jose Fernández broke the news that the Madrid Kings have contacted the Leeds City Club and they have a strong desire to sign. Hulay. But it’s not easy to let Leeds free their top star…”

“In addition to the Madrid Kings, it is rumored that the Catalan United and the Madrid pirates are also very interested in Hulay. In the Premier League, Stan Park Rangers and Manchester Atletico are also closely monitoring Hulay’s movements. The famous football consulting website’ transfer window “It is estimated that Hu Lai’s worth will reach 90 million Euros, or more…”

“Although Hulay did not get the golden boots in the Premier League last season, but with his outstanding performance in the Europa League, Leeds won the Europa League. Hulay himself became the European Union with 13 goals. The top scorer in the League Cup, this is still under the premise that he has only played in the Europa League for half a season…”

“Leeds City reiterated that Hu Lai is their not-for-sale product. They will not consider selling Hu Lai and are actively negotiating with Hu Lai’s brokerage company, hoping to sign a new contract…”

※※※

“Damn it! Hu’s agency is not willing to negotiate a contract extension with us!” In the office, Leeds City Club Football Director Nevin Ball complained to General Manager Eric Dufy. “They said that the contract was only signed last summer, and there are three years left. There is no need to rush to renew the contract. This is an excuse…”

“I’m not surprised by this.” Harry Bradley, who was sitting next to him, shrugged his shoulders with his legs crossed. “It is an exaggeration to say that half of Europe is chasing him, but it is absolutely fine to say that one third of Europe is interested in him.”

The media reported that the Kings of Madrid, Catalonia, Madrid Pirates, Atletico Manchester and Stan Park Rangers, but as managers of the club, they certainly know more than the media.

In addition to these bright clubs, there are many European teams that have thrown an olive branch on Hu Lai.

They are all giants in their respective leagues.

Even Paris Eger in the French Ligue 1 is asking Leeds about Hulay. We must know that the influence of Ligue 1 is the weakest among the five major leagues. They are all keen on chasing Hulai. His influence is evident…

Although public opinion has always criticized Hu Lai, he believes that his tactical role is single and not comprehensive enough.

But the managers and head coaches of these giants clubs expressed their opinions by voting with their feet.

Regardless of any criticism from the outside world, Hu Lai can score a goal!

Today’s football is very eager for an excellent center.

A Hu Lai who can score goals has multiple positions in the hearts of these people and does not need the so-called experts on the Internet to educate them.

Starting from joining Leeds City halfway through the 2024-2025 season, Hulay played a total of 96 games for Leeds City in all competitions in two and a half years, scoring 84 goals. This efficiency can also be among the best in the five major European leagues.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the pursuit of Hu Lai by European giants.

General Manager Eric Dufy asked: “Can we keep Hu?”

Nevin Bauer almost blurted out: “Of course we can keep Hu, and we must keep Hu!”

But his remarks did not receive a warm response from the other two, which made him startled for a while, somewhat unexpected.

Commercial director Harry Bradley frowned, seeming thoughtful.

The general manager Du Fei did not speak, and looked noncommittal.

So Bauer was not sure what the general manager was thinking, and fell silent.

After being silent for more than ten seconds, Du Fei finally spoke: “I think it is not the club’s ability to decide whether we can keep Hu or not, but the player’s personal wishes…”

Ball fought: “We have a contract with him, as long as the club does not agree, no one can take him away.”

“Newen, do you mean to leave Hu forcibly?” Bradley glanced at him.

Bauer asked back: “Can’t it?”

Bradley analyzed it for him: “You have to know that behind Hu represents the huge Chinese market and Chinese capital. If we and Hu have a shame, who do you think will be on the side of Chinese capital?”

“Uh…” Bauer came back to his senses~www.wuxiax.com~ dumbfounded.

He did not expect this layer just now. Leeds City is now in a good financial situation, and a large part of the credit goes to those generous Chinese companies…It is their sponsorship that has fattened the club.

But why do they sponsor the club so much? Bauer will not be so arrogant that it is all the charm of the club itself.

Du Fei said: “So it still depends on the player’s personal wishes. If he himself is willing to stay in the team, then it is easy to say anything, we will give it as much as we want. But if he doesn’t want…”

“Isn’t the answer obvious? He has rejected our renewal negotiation.” Bauer spread his hands.

“Maybe I just don’t think it is necessary? After all, there are still three years on the contract. In short, we still have to ask the players their opinions on this matter. I’d better call Tony and let him talk to Hu. He is better than us. Communicate some.”

The other two people in the office have no objection to this arrangement of the general manager.
