Chapter 2: Hanging on the hook

Hu Lai finally bought the house that their whole family liked.
In addition to the free area, nearly 200 square meters, four bedrooms, three living rooms, three bathrooms and three bathrooms are also extra points.
For the Hulai family currently living 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, in addition to their respective bedrooms, only one room was agreed on the purpose of the room. That room will be used as Hu Lai's honor showroom, which will place all his gains from the school team to the professional team. Honor medals and trophies.
Including the champion medal and golden boot trophy of the Anton Cup, the national championship trophy, the golden boot trophy and the best player trophy, as well as the four trophies and a gold medal just won from the capital award ceremony after the end of this season, as well as The best rookie of the season trophy.
Of course, don't forget the championship gold medal, golden boots, and best player trophy he won in the East Asian Cup.
These honors recorded Hu Lai's football career, and they all have extraordinary significance.
And Xie Lan is sure that her son will definitely not only receive these honors. In the future career, more trophies and medals will be brought back by his son. Therefore, an entire room must be dedicated to display the testimonies of these honors.
Instead of putting it on the desk used by Hu Lai as 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 ignored it.
This is mainly because he really does not have time to stay in Dongchuan to accompany those procedures. After all, he needs to sign online to buy a house. After signing the online sign, he can go to the real estate trading center to trade. This process takes time.
And Hulai did not have this time.
This is also one of the reasons why he did not choose to take a loan to buy a house, because it will take longer to get a loan.
Now he gave the money to his mother, and left his parents to take care of the rest.
The names of both parents are written on the real estate certificate, which can also be regarded as a gift he gave to them in return for the upbringing grace of his parents.

After finishing buying a house, Hu Lai is about to leave home.
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 directly rejected: "Forget it, I'm afraid of embarrassment just for the two of us to eat."
Hu Lai is not embarrassed, but since the coach feels embarrassed, he has to give up.
Yes, Hu Lai did not see Li Qingqing this time.
In mid-December, the first half of the Europa League was not over yet.
And when Li Qingqing can come back for Christmas or something after the holiday, Hu Lai has already gone to the Olympic team to report on training.
The two of them missed it perfectly.
But there is no way, this time the u23 Asian Cup is held in China, which is related to whether the National Olympic team can participate in the Olympic Games in Madrid, Spain next summer.
Whether it is the football association leaders or the fan media, this is very important.
In particular, this National Olympic team performed well in the East Asian Cup in March this year. After winning the championship, it was even more highly expected.
"Then let's just say that, Hu Lai. See you at the Olympics!"
"Damn it at the Olympics? Shouldn't you be preparing for the new season at the club?"
"Wat is my brain, Hu Lai? I want to participate in the Olympics too!"
"Huh?" Hu Lai stared at Li Qingqing, who was videoing with him on the phone screen, for a moment.
Seeing him like this, Li Qingqing knew that Hu Lai must have forgotten: "Your men's football team is the national Olympic team for participating in the Olympics, and our women's football team went directly to the national team to participate in the Olympics!"
Hu Lai reacted at once, he really ignored this... He always thought that participating in the Olympics must be the National Olympic team, but Li Qingqing is the national team, what Olympics will he participate in?
As a result, when Li Qingqing said this, he remembered that it was true. Women's football participates in the Olympics as a national team.
"You concentrated on the u23 Asian Cup in January to determine the Olympic quota, and we decided in two stages in February and March." Li Qingqing said.
"Oh, yes, yes!"
"So Hu Lai, you must be qualified for the Olympic Games by then!"
"Don't just talk about me, aren't you?"
"Hehe, when did our women's football miss the Olympics? When was the last time your men's football participated in the Olympics? By the way, it was the Capital Olympics. That was all eleven years ago!"
Hu Lai is said to have no temper. Who calls the women's football is awesome?
"I don't care anyway, we have agreed, we must see you at the Olympics..." At this point, Li Qingqing on the screen suddenly gave Hu Lai a little thumb.
"What are you doing?"
"Hook!" Li Qingqing on the other side of the screen shook her little finger.
"How do you pull the hook across the screen?" Hu Lai felt that Li Qingqing's mind was only watt.
"Take a hook! Come on, let me see your finger!"
Hu Lai had no choice but to follow with a little thumb up: "Naive!"
Li Qingqing laughed happily: "Come, follow me, hang on the hook!"
"Hang on the hook..." Hu Lai rolled his eyes and said perfunctorily.
"No change in a hundred years!"
"No change in a hundred years...Just next year, why not change in a hundred years?" Hu Lai couldn't help but complain.
"Then... hang on the hook, see you at the Olympics next year!"
Hu Lai repeated it again, and then dropped his hand.
"I'll tell you Hu Lai, you need a snack. If you fail to participate in the Olympics, you will owe me... thirty meals!" Li Qingqing on the other side of the screen also put away his hand.
"Why is it thirty meals!"
"You made an appointment for the Olympic Games, a major event that the world has focused on. Do you think you owe ten meals to match the specifications and status of the Olympic Games?" Li Qingqing said frankly.
Hu Lai opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw Li Qingqing holding his head high, he shook his head again: "Fine. But I don't think I can miss the appointment."
"Hey, that's good. That's it. We will see or leave for the Madrid Olympics next year!"

"Zhiyuan, are you alright?"
The agent Qiu Xinrong got up in the living room and looked back in the direction of the bathroom.
"Come here..." As he said, the door of the bathroom was pushed open, and a tall figure squeezed out from it, "I was selected for the Olympic team, but not you. How do you feel that Old Uncle Qiu is better than me? Still excited?"
"Am I excited? I'm worried that you won't be able to catch the plane if you don't go out! Hurry up!" Qiu Xinrong roared at the end.
Lin Zhiyuan put on his backpack, picked up his suitcase, and ran out of the agent's "lion roar".
"I'm telling you, don't offend people when you arrive at the Olympic team. Keep in mind that you are a complete newcomer to the Olympic team..." Qiu Xinrong, who was driving, told Lin Zhiyuan tirelessly. He was really afraid of this. Discrete young people will not fit in with 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 is 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 collapsed on the back seat. Suddenly he shouted, "You sit down for me! Fasten your seat belt!"
Lin Zhiyuan had to sit up obediently and fasten his safety belt: "Listen, listen, old Uncle Qiu, continue talking."
"What am I going to say, see you are mad at me..." Qiu Xinrong recalled for a while before remembering, "Oh, yes. When you joined the South China Tigers before, those things you said might offend Hu. Lai. He is now a popular fried chicken of the National Olympic team. You have to be careful not to conflict with him. If you really are right, take a step back and broaden the sky..."
Lin Zhiyuan retracted his gaze from the car window and stared at the back of his agent: "Old Uncle Qiu, take a step back, so why should I retreat?"
"Hey, you kid..."
"Don't worry, Old Uncle Qiu. I'm not a fool. I went to the Olympic team to play football, not to fight. If Hu Lai really looked at me upset, he would use football to talk. Isn't he a striker? He advanced my ball Besides. If he can't enter my door, don't pretend to be in front of me." Lin Zhiyuan curled his lips.
Hearing him say this, Qiu Xinrong frowned, but it was not easy to refute.
Football really speaks for strength.
Think that when Hu Lai entered 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 National Olympic scorer and number one star, it seems that he has not even made the training list this time...

Chen Xingyi put a soup bowl almost the size of his face on the table. The soup in it was drunk thoroughly, and there was not even a green onion left.
"It's finished?" asked the father Chen Hantang next to him.
"Cool!" Chen Xingyi exhaled contentedly, white water vapor coming out of his mouth and steaming upward. "Before you go far, you must have a bowl of Lao Xie's beef soup."
"Okay, let's go." Chen Hantang got up and walked to the car parked on the side of the road.
Chen Xingyi turned his head and glanced at the other diners who were immersed in the soup like himself, Miao Miao white gas gathered above their heads, dispelling the winter cold.
This is an ordinary morning in Tangdu winter.
This Lao Xie beef soup is as busy as usual, and the business is so good.
In order not to delay the next trip, he and his father had to come here early to line up for dinner.
And now that he has finished eating, he can finally embark on the journey.
This has almost become a fixed procedure and tradition designed by Chen Xingyi himself. Whether he is going to Dashun Golden Arrowhead or Jincheng, as long as he leaves Tangdu, he will come here to drink a bowl of soup before leaving.
On the one hand, there is no beef soup that can be seen everywhere in Tangdu Street and alleys where he goes, and on the other hand, the taste of hometown always makes him feel full of power.
Dashun’s seafood is delicious, and Jincheng’s hot pot skewers are also good, but in any case, he still likes the steaming bowl of soup in his hometown.
Ding Dong, a new message reminds me from the phone.
Chen Xingyi took a look. It was from Hu Lai, "Little Xingxing, have you set out? Lao Wang and I have already met at the airport in Jincheng!"
Chen Xingyi smiled: "I am going to take the high-speed rail, see you in Hongfengling!"
※※※
"Little Xingxing can go by train. I really want to take the high-speed rail to the capital..." Hu Lai said to Wang Guangwei next to him with his mobile phone. The two of them are now walking in the terminal building of Jincheng Airport, and the luggage cart they are pushing is full of suitcases and backpacks for two people.
"It takes about the same time for him to take the high-speed train to fly with us," Wang Guangwei said.
The two of them agreed to meet at the airport.
"Who said it's time, there is an Internet by high-speed rail, you can surf the Internet, not by plane... How boring!"
"This is also..."
As they were talking, the two walked to the designated boarding gate.
Just when they were planning to find a place to sit down, Hu Lai was taken aback for a moment and looked at a person not far away.
At the same time, the person also raised his head, and the two eyes met.
"Damn, why are you here?" Hu Lai pointed to Luo Kai in surprise.
"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 fate, I didn't expect us to be on the same plane. Where are you taking Luo Kai?"
"Eleventh row~EbookFREE.me~Wang Guangwei took out his boarding pass, his eyes widened: "I'm going...I and Hu Lai are also on the eleventh row. I am E and Hu Lai is F. "
Luo Kai was stunned for a moment: "I am D..."
The three of them were in three seats next to each other in the same row.
"It's really fate that the separation of fate has come home!" Wang Guangwei said with emotion.
"What kind of fate is this?" Hu Lai snorted, "I thought there would be a beautiful woman next to us, but that's it, that's it!"
"What can you do with a beautiful woman?" Luo Kai mocked him. "The beauty won't care about you."
Hu Lai laughed: "I have Li Qingqing's WeChat."
Luo Kai took a deep breath, tried to calm his mood, and then ignored the next to him.
Wang Guangwei saw this scene next to him, and suddenly felt that this road would not be boring anymore.
