Chapter 60 Sword Eyebrow Star Eyes
After the team warmed up, Yan Yan kept staring at Hu Lai.
After he went back and thought about it, he still felt that his guess was reliable. The head coach actually valued Hu Lai very much. But he has never figured out what that "big responsibility" is. It should not be to lead the team to the national competition, or it is definitely not asking him to lead the team to the national competition at this time.
He wanted to see how the head coach would arrange Hu Lai.
When arranging specific training items, Li Ziqiang finished arranging everyone, turned to Hu Lai and said: "You continue basic training."
Hu Lai didn't object. He really needed basic training, so he took the ball to his dedicated training area.
Yan Yan turned his gaze to the coach, and he seemed to understand something in his eyes.
Chu Yifan came up to him and said to him with a smile: "Look, let's stop thinking so much? Our coach is still the same as before..."
"No." But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yan Yan. "This just proves that the head coach really values Hu Lai very much!"
"How did you tell?" Chu Yifan was very curious about how Yan Yan's brain circuits grew.
"Hu Lai's foundation is very weak, so the coach asked him to practice the basics. Even if he scored a goal in the game, he did not change his plan. This shows that our head coach has a long-term plan for Hu Lai..."
"Long-term plan? What plan?" Chu Yifan felt like he was being confused by Yan Yan.
"Hu Lai is only a freshman in high school, right? He will be a sophomore in high school next year when he matures. After a year of practicing the basics, I believe he will have completely changed in all aspects. And by that time you will have graduated, and our team will always need Fresh blood. How can it be done by Luo Kai alone? Hu Lai is the fresh blood." Yan Yan said with certainty. "You also saw Hu Lai's performance when he faced you yesterday. He was so proud after just scoring a goal. What does it mean?"
"What does it mean?"
"It shows that this kid is easily arrogant! That's why our coach needs to use strong methods to suppress his eager heart - don't believe it, who can't help but want to play in the game after only practicing the basics for a month? This kid is simply ignorant and fearless! I think our coach really wanted Hu Lai to train for another year. Otherwise, why would he do basic training for one year after saying he couldn't pass the special training? During the special training, he was so lucky that he actually scored a world-famous overhead kick, which made our coach unable to do anything, so we could only give him one chance to play. As a result, when he came on the court, no one passed the ball to him, so the coach was turned off. He's so angry - this is the person he likes! It's like we excluded that kid... Of course he can't allow the person he appointed to not get the support of the team, right?"
Chu Yifan nodded subconsciously.
While Yan Yan ran to train with Chu Yifan, he said in the captain's ear: "The coach has a long-term view and is already thinking about next year. Otherwise, why else did he say after the game that day that we only relied on Luo Kai to win? What? We just think about winning. It's worth celebrating that we can reach the semi-finals. But the coach is already thinking about how to lead the team to win next year after you are no longer the captain... Our coach is awesome! He wants a team, not an individual. Heroism!”
Chu Yifan beside him was dumbfounded. He had never thought of so many complicated twists and turns in his mind.
Finally, Yan Yan came to a conclusion: "If you don't believe it, just wait and see. I bet that kid Hu Lai will definitely not play again in the next semi-finals. Our coach has to suppress him, otherwise this kid will not be able to go to heaven?" This is all part of the coaching plan..."

When Li Qingqing finished training, she waved goodbye to her new teammates and took a half-hour bus ride back home.
At this time, her father had already prepared dinner and was waiting for her to come back.
Li Qingqing opened the door and saw her father in an apron taking a plate of dishes out of the kitchen and placing it on the dining table.
"Back?"
"Well, I'm back."
"How are the new teammates? How does training feel?" Li Ziqiang asked while wiping his hands on his apron and staring at his daughter.
"Everyone is very good. Everyone is very friendly to me. I haven't played football for a long time, and I am very happy." Li Qingqing put down his sports backpack filled with equipment, changed into slippers at the entrance, and then went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Li Ziqiang came up and stood at the door of the bathroom and asked: "To celebrate your return to the court, I made your favorite roast beef brisket with radish today."
Li Qingqing smiled: "Do we need to celebrate this too?"
Li Ziqiang nodded seriously: "We want to celebrate."
"Dad, aren't you the one who wants to drink?" Li Qingqing stared into his father's eyes and asked.
Li Ziqiang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that there was no wine at home. If he had known that he would have bought a bottle on the way home from school... he should really drink. But he was still saying: "Oh, where did you want to go?"
After washing her hands, Li Qingqing washed her face with cold water, then walked out and sat at the dining table. Looking at the table of sumptuous meals, she took a deep breath: "It smells so good!"
Seeing his daughter like this, Li Ziqiang felt extremely happy.
As a result, the next second, his daughter opened her eyes, looked at him and asked, "By the way, Dad, how was the training of the school team?"
Li Ziqiang's good mood disappeared. On the surface, it seems that her daughter is concerned about his school team training, but what is there to care about in school team training? Isn’t it like that every day? So she is still worried about that bastard...
However, Li Ziqiang couldn't let his daughter see it, so he kept smiling: "It's pretty good."
"Really? That's good, ha... Dad, let's eat!"
"Okay, I'll serve the rice."
"Dad, you sit down, I'll go!" Li Qingqing jumped up, pushed Li Ziqiang back to his seat, and then jumped towards the kitchen.
Li Ziqiang, who was sitting at the dining table, turned to look at his daughter's lively back and smiled.
What a heartwarming scene, it would be great if there wasn't that bastard to disrupt the situation...

"Ah? Didn't you come to see the training yesterday?"
Hu Lai looked at Li Qingqing in front of him in surprise, while Song Jiajia, who was playing a mobile game next to her, rolled her eyes - You don't care about others too much, right?
"Well, I went to train. As you know, I'm in the women's football team..." Li Qingqing explained to Hu Lai.
It was noon, and the three of them found a Sichuan restaurant outside the school, ordered a few stir-fried dishes, and sat around a table. Treated by Song Jiajia.
Li Qingqing asked Hu Lai to confirm if anything else happened during the training after school yesterday.
"No, the coach still arranges for me to do basic training." Hu Lai said.
"Is it still basic training? Didn't you have any additional shooting practice? Didn't you also practice with the team?" Li Qingqing's eyes widened, a little surprised.
"Yeah, no. What's wrong?" Hu Lai was confused and didn't understand why Li Qingqing had such a reaction.
"Well...it's nothing." Li Qingqing frowned and said. She thought that Hu Lai's goal would somewhat change Hu Lai's treatment in the team, but now it seems that her father did not change his original plans and ideas because of Hu Lai's goal.
There are two games left, the semi-finals and finals of the qualifying rounds. These two games are the highlight. According to previous thoughts, it is even less likely that Dad will give Hu Lai the chance to play.
Although he would be a little unwilling, Li Qingqing also knew that there was nothing he could do about it. Time was too tight. Even if Hu Lai had worked hard, it would be difficult to change anything.
Just at this time, the first dish was served. Li Qingqing snapped open his chopsticks and said: "Let's eat!"
Hu Lai also picked up the disposable chopsticks, clasped his hands together and put them to his mouth: "Thank you, Fatty Song, for giving us food..."
After saying this, he broke his chopsticks.
Snap.
Song Jiajia put down her phone and looked at Hu Lai, who was so pious, speechlessly: "I'm just treating you to a meal, that's not much."
"As for that." Hu Lai nodded repeatedly, "I've always known how to be grateful!"
Of course, I have to thank Fatty Song, because he helped Hu Lai save another ten yuan in lunch money, and he is one step closer to paying off the foreign debt!
Li Qingqing found it amusing to watch the two people bickering, so she also said: "Then let me express my gratitude too!"
The two boys stopped playing and turned to look at Li Qingqing.
She put her hands into fists under her chin and closed her eyes.
Li Qingqing's eyebrows are different from those of ordinary girls. They are slightly thicker and thicker, without any curvature. They extend straight out and are slightly upward.
This pair of eyebrows will appear uncoordinated on many girls' faces, but this is not the case on Li Qingqing's face, because there is a pair of big eyes under the eyebrows. Most people would think that her big eyes are dull, but this does not happen to Li Qingqing. The combination of her big eyes and thick eyebrows makes her not as delicate as ordinary girls, but full of heroic spirit. Coupled with her toned body, it is just right.
Now the big eyes are closed, and the long eyelashes are trembling slightly, as if a breeze is blowing.
Under the straight bridge of the nose, the pair of pale pink lips were opening and closing and saying: "Thank you, classmate Song Jiajia, for giving us food..."
Looking at this scene, Song Jiajia suddenly understood Luo Kai's feelings...
After Li Qingqing said this, when she opened her eyes, she saw two people opposite her looking directly at her.
"What's wrong?" she asked curiously.
"Eat!" Song Jiajia poked her chopsticks in the bowl, aligned them, and then launched an attack on Mao Xuewang.
"Eat, eat!" Hu Lai also quickly looked away, lowered his head and rummaged in the bowl several times, only to realize that his bowl was empty, and all he put into his mouth was air...
Seeing Hu Lai's embarrassment, Li Qingqing couldn't help laughing: "Hu Lai, what are you doing?"
"Ah, I'm performing for dinner!" Hu Lai concealed it.
"You are so interesting!" Li Qingqing covered her mouth and smiled so hard that her big eyes turned into crescents.
Song Jiajia, who was lowering her head to eat the vegetables, felt that the tripe in her mouth became even crispier when she heard Li Qingqing's crisp laughter.
※※※
During the afternoon training, Song Jiajia changed her position this time. She was still on the rostrum, but she moved from the left side of the rostrum to the right side.
He also saw the girls from yesterday in the crowd, and they also saw him.
They were still standing in the same position as yesterday, looking at Song Jiajia from a distance.
Seeing them, Song Jiajia happily waved to them to ensure that these people had seen him.
Later, the players changed clothes and came out of the locker room, Luo Kai among them.
The girls screamed when they saw him.
Amidst the screams, Luo Kai looked back at the rostrum. He first looked at the position where Song Jiajia stood yesterday.
"Wow! He looked over! Luo Kai looked at me!"
"It's me! It's me!"
A group of girls started fighting excitedly.
But in less than a second, Luo Kai's eyes turned away. He did not look back, but continued to search on the rostrum.
It wasn't until he saw Song Jiajia that he stopped looking back and forth.
And all this was clearly seen by the group of girls. Before, they were still arguing with each other about who Luo Kai was looking at, but now they were collectively petrified.
"No..."
Someone murmured.
"Luo Kai...are you really looking at that fat man?"
"No, this is impossible!"
"What is their relationship?!"
Luo Kai had no idea what kind of painful struggle those girls in the stands were going through.
When he saw Song Jiajia, he imagined that Li Qingqing was standing next to the fat man, but he was disappointed. There were people standing around Song Jiajia, but there was no sign of Li Qingqing.
He sighed inwardly.
Why doesn't Li Qingqing come to watch the training?
Doesn't she care about Hu Lai at all?
Song Jiajia, who was on the podium, looked towards the other end. He saw the shocked eyes of the girls. They must have a lot of questions now, but Song Jiajia didn't intend to explain anything.
He showed a meaningful smile to the girls, then took out the mobile phone in his pocket, lowered his head and started playing the game. (End of chapter)
