Chapter 247: go home

"...In the Women's Champions League final that ended early this morning, Chinese player Li Qingqing used a beautiful kick to help the King of Madrid Women's Football Team beat the London Bridge Women's Football Team 4-0 and won the championship. Li Qingqing also became the first to win the Champions League. The Chinese player of the trophy...and Li Qingqing also won the best player and top scorer in the Women's Champions League this season..."
There was sports news on the TV, but Xie Lan didn't even look at it, just regarded it as background music.
She is on a video call with Hu Lai and Li Qingqing.
"When are you coming back?"
"Tomorrow's plane, I'm packing my things." Hu Lai in the camera turned his head and said as he packed his clothes into the box.
"Okay!" Xie Lan laughed hard. "When the time comes, I'll pick you up at the airport! Qingqing eh..."
In the screen of her mobile phone, the opposite side switched to the front camera, and Li Qingqing appeared on the screen: "I'm here, Auntie Xie."
"Your dad told me that he won't be able to go there when he has something to do, so this time I'll pick you two up alone. You and Hu Lai will go home in my car."
"Thank you auntie!"
"Hey, the family doesn't speak two languages, why are you being polite?" Xie Lan waved her hand happily. "What do you want to eat, say in advance, auntie will prepare it for you..."
"Mom, I want to eat..." Hu Lai's voice drifted over.
Xie Lan said with a straight face: "What do you eat! Still eating? The Champions League was eliminated by Meli! This is the result of you not controlling your diet! Let me tell you, there are Olympic Games in summer, you don't pay attention to your diet. This is your last Olympics!"
"What?" Hu Lai's face came closer, question marks all over his forehead. I don't know how the three things of eating, being eliminated from the Champions League, and the Olympics were linked by his mother.
Li Qingqing covered her mouth and smiled: "Auntie, I also want to participate in the Olympic Games..."
"Eh Qingqing, you're different. Besides, you've already won the Champions League, so you have to reward yourself, right? Don't be so rigid, it's okay to relax every now and then..."
Hu Lai grabbed the phone and said to his mother with a stern face, "Mom, don't delay us packing our luggage, and we'll talk about it when we get back!"
After speaking, he ended the video call.
Li Qingqing smiled beside him: "Auntie is really an interesting person..."
Hu Lai didn't speak, but stared at Li Qingqing, who looked a little strange: "What are you doing?"
Hu Lai shook his head: "My mother really likes you."
Hearing the meaning of this sentence, Li Qingqing blushed.
Then she thought of her father's attitude towards Hu Lai again, showing an embarrassed expression.
This expression was caught by Hu Lai keenly, and he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Uh... nothing, just... my dad, um..."
Li Qingqing still didn't say "My dad doesn't like you" directly.
But Hu Lai is very clear that he doesn't care about the coach's attitude: "It's okay, he doesn't object to us being together. As long as he can allow us to be together, it doesn't matter what he thinks about me."
He also didn't say anything:
I'm with you, not with your dad. Since your dad doesn't object, what does it matter if he likes me or not?
Hu Lai has never felt that he is the kind of character that everyone loves and flowers bloom. It's been that way since childhood.
There are always people who like him and people who don't. Even before, when he wasn't famous, there were more people who didn't like him.
So he can see through.
He didn't know that Coach Li didn't like him.
To be honest, when I heard that Coach Li didn't say a word and agreed that Li Qingqing was with him, Hu Lai was still surprised.
I don't know why Coach Li is so reasonable all of a sudden...
Hu Lai suddenly remembered that Coach Li used to pick him and Li Qingqing from the airport. Why did something suddenly happen this time, and it was his mother who came instead?
Maybe there is nothing temporary at all, I just don't want to be a driver for myself anymore...
what!
Hu Lai wanted to laugh when he thought of going home last summer and Coach Li found out that he had made a neighbor's face with him.
But in front of Li Qingqing, he tensed.
After all, the coach is Li Qingqing's father, so basic respect still has to be...

When the Madrid Kings men's team defeated Stan Park Rangers 2:1 in the Champions League final and won the twelfth Champions League trophy in the club's history, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing were already on their way home by plane.
For both of them, the season is over and they need to go back and get a good rest.
Then in mid-June, they both reported to their respective teams to prepare for the Olympics.
At the same time, since Hu Lai will participate in the Olympic Games, he will not participate in the second "China Cup" on June 12th and 16th.
This "China Cup" invited the Croatian national team, the Senegalese national team, and the Costa Rica national team. However, the Chinese team will not use the main force, so the final result is hard to say, and no one knows whether it can defend the "China Cup".
Of course, Chinese fans don't care much about the national team's success in the "China Cup".
They all know that the so-called "China Cup" is actually just a warm-up match of slightly better quality.
This summer, the event that fans are most concerned about is the Olympic Games.
The gold content of football in the Olympic Games is actually not high, but it is higher than the "China Cup", and the results achieved in the Olympic Games are more eye-catching than those in the "China Cup".
It can be said that national-level events, in addition to the continental cups and the World Cup, are the Olympic Games.
This is also the only way for professional players to want to become "Olympic champions".
Therefore, there are many famous stars who will participate in the Olympic Games as overage players, trying to hit the Olympic gold medal.

After Xie Lan parked the car in the parking lot, he came to the exit of the international flight of Dongsheng International Airport and waited for his son and Li Qingqing to come out.
Then she found that there seemed to be a lot of people waiting here... more than the normal number of pick-ups.
Immediately after, she saw someone holding up signs and posters.
The poster is the poster of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, and the names of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing are also on the light board.
Good guy... who leaked the rumors?
Tucao return to Tucao, Xie Lan still has a very clear understanding.
With the prestige and fame of his son and daughter-in-law, how could he be silent when he returned to his hometown?
This scene is normal.
But then Xie Lan frowned - so many people gathered here, how can I guarantee that the two of them will be able to see him as soon as they come out?
Compared with so many people, she is too insignificant, and she is inconspicuous in the crowd.
At that time, although these people can attract the attention of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, it is difficult for them to find themselves in the crowd. So how do I complete the pick-up?
Xie Lan pondered this question in her mind, and at the same time began to look left and right, her eyes rolling.
Finally, she turned her attention to the raised light signs.

Hu Lai and Li Qingqing were at the luggage carousel, waiting to pick up their checked luggage.
Beside them, there are many passengers who are on the same plane with them, also waiting for their luggage.
At the same time, there are also people hiding in the crowd, or taking pictures of them with mobile phones from a distance.
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing are very clear about this.
Despite the camouflage on the plane, the identity was revealed.
So along the way, they became the "mascots" that were watched by people.
In this regard, after they officially announced their relationship, they have become accustomed to it and have no choice but to accept it.
They were very clear in their hearts that the two of them were no longer the "little transparent" who could eat casually in the fly restaurant in Dongchuan and play football and play in the football park without anyone else.
Today, after they have gained a lot of money and fame, they have also lost some personal privacy and freedom.
Being pointed at by a mobile phone camera in public has become their daily routine.
And not only to be filmed, but also to learn to automatically filter out the voices of judgment.
For example, something like "Li Qingqing is so beautiful, it's a pity to match Hu Lai"...
As a public figure, it is inevitable to be criticized, not only whether you like it or not, but there is no way out.
The better they perform and the more widely praised they are, the more likely they are to be slammed when they don't perform as well. This is the so-called "the stronger the ability, the more scolded".
For example, after the pirates where Hu Lai was eliminated by the King of Madrid, some fans on the domestic Internet criticized Hu Lai for maintaining a complete victory over Meili before, but he could still lose the game at the most critical time. The performance is simply rubbish. I'm totally sorry so many fans have high hopes for him.
Others hope that it would be better for Hu Lai to lose both the league title and the Golden Boot to Meli. Their reasoning was "You lost once anyway, why can't you lose more?"
Many of these words are actually angry words about the pirates being eliminated from the game.
Just saying it really hurts.
As the scolded party, Hu Lai can't really go into battle to scold the fans, right? Don't say scolding, it's not okay to be reasonable.
There is no better way to do this than to pretend not to hear.
Not even changing the vest to respond.
Once someone sees through, it's not as simple as social death...
By the way, the account "WHO in the restricted area" registered by Hu Lai with Song Fatzi's mobile phone number on the "Goal" website has been withdrawn by Song Jiajia, and he is not allowed to use it again.
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing were able to communicate like no one else in the crowd, and their psychological qualities were top-notch.
"I heard loud cheers outside..." Li Qingqing said.
You don't need to listen carefully, just at the luggage carousel, you can easily hear the shouts outside.
With my knees I can think of what these shouts are about.
"I didn't say when we'll be back online..." Hu Lai frowned.
"It's not like you said that no one knows, it's not very common to sell information..." When Li Qingqing said this, she was fortunate that it was Aunt Xie who came to pick them up today, not her father...
Otherwise, the fans will coax her together, she is afraid that her father will have high blood pressure.
"But don't worry, there should be someone on the scene to maintain order, so we won't be trapped in the airport and can't get out..." Hu Lai thought that Li Qingqing was worried about this problem, so he comforted.
But Li Qingqing thought of another question: "Hu Lai, have you and Aunt Xie discussed how to pick up the plane?"
"Ah? This is still to be discussed?" Hu Lai was at a loss. "It's not that we went out, she saw us and walked up to pick up the luggage cart. Is that enough?"
Li Qingqing wanted to give him a blank look: "Do you think that in the current situation, those security guards or police uncles can still let others approach us at will?"
"Uh..." Hu Lai realized that he had made a mistake.
He didn't consider that when he arrived at Dongsheng International Airport, there would be so many people picking up the plane.
"Then let's find her," Hu Lai said.
"How did we find your mother so quickly among so many people?"
Hu Lai pinched his chin: "I can't use the airport radio to find people, right?"
Then he began to imitate: "Now the broadcast is looking for someone. Ms. Xie Lan, Ms. Xie Lan. Please hurry to the international exit after hearing the broadcast, your son is waiting for you..."
Li Qingqing was amused by Hu Lai, and reached out and patted him: "Disgusting!"
Hu Lai, who made Li Qingqing laugh, also laughed.
This scene was filmed by the onlookers, and when it was posted on the Internet, I don't know how many people would be sour...
※※※
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing took all their luggage, pushed a fully loaded luggage cart each, and walked out of the aisle under the watch of countless eyes and mobile phone cameras.
Then they saw a dark crowd of people picking up the plane in front of them.
These people held up their light signs, posters and slogans ~EbookFREE.me~ to show their identities - they are all fans of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing.
When they saw Hu Lai and Li Qingqing coming out, they were all excited, and their shouts were obviously much louder.
But these enthusiastic fans made Hu Lai and Li Qingqing in trouble - where is mother (Aunt Xie)?
Is it really necessary to broadcast to find someone?
At this moment, a high-pitched scream came out very abruptly in the shouting, helping Hu Lai to lock the target he was looking for in an instant.
"son--!!!"
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing looked at the sound and saw Xie Lan waving the gleaming light sign in her hand vigorously, shouting at them excitedly.
"Son!! Here! Here!!"
Hu Lai and Li Qingqing were stunned, and the fans behind Xie Lan were also stunned:
Good guy, are all mom fans so crazy now? !
