Chapter 362 Thank you for the invitation
"...I believe everyone has seen this photo of Li Qingqing and Hu Lai standing in front of reporters holding the East Asian Cup trophy. At that time, including me, many people said that this was the first time for Hu Lai and Li Qingqing. They were in the same frame, but in fact we were both wrong! Although I have never seen any similar photos of the two of them before, it is definitely not the first time that they stood side by side like this two days ago! While wandering around the forum , suddenly found someone claiming to be a classmate of Hu Lai and Li Qingqing... Yes, they are Li Qingqing's classmates. You read that right, Li Qingqing did not go directly from Quanshun Football School to a professional team, she went to an ordinary high school She has attended school! But this experience has been downplayed intentionally or unintentionally. After all, she only attended a middle school for one semester. So, do you know the name of this middle school?
"Yes, it's Dongchuan Middle School! Doesn't it sound familiar? Don't worry if you are not familiar with it, please listen to me explain it to you in detail. Everyone knows that Hu Lai came to professional football He was a student player before playing football. Which school did he attend? Where is the middle school? Yes, it is also Dongchuan Middle School! The champion of the high school group of the 2021 National Middle School Football Championship is Dongchuan Middle School! And Hu Lai is the top scorer of that team and the top scorer of that national competition. and the best player winner!
"According to the poster's calculations, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing should have gone to Dongchuan Middle School at the same time. Some people may also say, there are so many students in a school, how can we prove that the two of them knew each other before? Then the poster will be cruel ——Do you know who Li Qingqing’s father is? Li Ziqiang! He is the head coach of the Dongchuan Middle School football team, and it is he who led the Dongchuan Middle School team to win the national championship! Disciple, it was he who recruited Hu Lai into the school team and trained him carefully, so that he became the top scorer in the national competition. Regarding this, you can go to the Internet to search for Anton TV's ace column "Characters"! The program on August 17, 2022 was a special documentary made by "People Chronicle" for Hu Lai. Coach Li Ziqiang appeared in it and talked about Hu Lai.
"As for Li Ziqiang being Li Qingqing's father, the poster only found out after Li Qingqing was injured. At that time, the media reported on Li Qingqing's injury and photographed Li Ziqiang taking Li Qingqing out of the Blue Moon Training Base... Think about it, everyone. Li Qingqing's Dad is the head coach of Hu Lai, and he also values Hu Lai very much. So how could Li Qingqing, as his daughter, not know Hu Lai? The author here boldly guesses that they not only know each other, but may also be related. Very good!
"To be honest, the poster never thought that the two talented players of the Chinese men's football team and the women's football team would know each other. After all, Li Qingqing didn't seem to publicize the news that she once studied at Dongchuan Middle School. Before she suffered the muscle strain, we knew very little about her family situation—she On the one hand, she has never been mentioned, but on the other hand, the women's football team lacks the same attention as the men's football team. This World Cup craze and the pursuit of her by European clubs have made her the object of attention from fans and media across the country, and she has also been ignored. The known past has a chance to appear before our eyes...
"After knowing the relationship between the two, it is particularly interesting to look back at the group photo of the two - based on Hu Lai's performance and news during the East Asian Cup, it seems that he has nothing public with Li Qingqing. Of course, he doesn’t need to have public contact with Li Qingqing, because when he and Li Qingqing seemed to be strangers, he might have been chatting happily with Li Qingqing on WeChat! ”
When Hu Lai saw this post on his mobile phone that Chen Xingyi forwarded to him, he had the expression of "an old man on the subway looking at his mobile phone" the whole time he was reading.
Chen Xingyi also asked him on the phone: "Have you finished reading? Do you and Li Qingqing really know each other??"
He ended up using two question marks to express his surprise.
"Yeah, we know each other...what's wrong?" Hu Lai replied.
"I'll fuck you, boy! Why have I never heard you talk about it before?"
"What's there to say?"
"What's there to say? It's also...that feeling of 'the whole world doesn't know that Goddess Qingqing and I have known each other for a long time.' It must be very satisfying, right? It's especially in line with your temperament as a hottie!"
"What...is it a great thing to know Li Qingqing? Do you need to spread it all over the world? I am not Luo Kai..."
"Huh? Luo Kai also likes Li Qingqing? I seem to know something amazing!" Chen Xingyi made a surprised expression.
"Uh..." Hu Lai realized this time that he had told Luo Kai's big gossip, which fully showed that he didn't think this matter was anything special.
Many times he didn't say it not because he wanted to show off, but because there was no need or reason to say it.
It is their business for the outside world to label Li Qingqing, but in Hu Lai's eyes, Li Qingqing is a classmate he met in his first year of high school, a football girl who taught him coordination training, and a person he has become accustomed to having in his life. A girl alone.
Because it's so natural, sometimes you don't expect others to care so much.
"It's not a big deal. I want to say that Luo Kai plays professional football for Li Qingqing. Do you believe it or not?" Hu Lai replied.
"I believe, I believe, I believe!" After Chen Xingyi replied to Hu Lai, he ran to Luo Kai on WeChat and typed:
"I heard that you like Li Qingqing?"
Then he looked at the prompt message "The message you sent has been rejected" and was stunned for a second, then became furious: "Damn! Luo Kai, you bastard haven't released me from the blacklist yet?!" < br>

Liu Jinge held his mobile phone and exclaimed: "I'm going! Hu Lai and Li Qingqing have known each other for a long time!"
"Hu Lai and Li Qingqing?" The other Nanhai team players in the locker room suddenly became interested when they heard the familiar names.
They all know about Li Qingqing. The Chinese women's football team recently won the quarterfinals in the World Cup. Li Qingqing is a key figure. Even those who don't usually pay attention to the women's football team now know her name.
Hu Lai and the others are also very familiar with them. The reason why they failed to achieve promotion last season was, in a sense, closely related to Hu Lai.
They originally thought that the photo taken after the East Asian Cup was the only intersection between these two people, but they didn't expect that they had known each other for a long time?
"Yes, yes." Liu Jinge said, "When I was in the Olympic training team, I didn't see any contact between the two of them... This kid really hides deep!"
"By the way, weren't Luo Kai and Hu Lai teammates in Dongchuan Middle School? Luo Kai, do you know about this?" A teammate immediately asked the question to Luo Kai, who had been silent.
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Luo Kai.
Luo Kai knew why Liu Jinge made such an exclamation, and he had also read the post that Liu Jinge read.
It has to be said that although this person has never attended Dongchuan Middle School and relied entirely on clues to guess, he still guessed pretty well...
In full view of everyone, he nodded: "Yes, they have known each other for a long time."
Liu Jinge exclaimed: "It's true! I'll go!"
He suddenly thought of his first meal with the Olympic team. All the Olympic team players in the restaurant were attracted by the sudden appearance of Li Qingqing. Only Hu Lai could still eat calmly. At that time, he was still wondering why Hu Lai could turn a blind eye. Now that he thought about it, it turned out that it was because they had known each other for a long time. It was not that he turned a blind eye, but that he was used to it and was not surprised!
Then he heard Luo Kai say: "Me, Hu Lai and Li Qingqing, the three of us are classmates."
"Wipe?! Isn't it?"
"You and Li Qingqing have known each other for a long time?!"
There was a commotion in the locker room.
Liu Jinge jumped in front of Luo Kai: "Brother Kai! Give me Li Qingqing's WeChat account!"
The corner of Luo Kai's mouth twitched: "I can't give it."
Captain Wang Yiru stepped forward and dragged Liu Jinge back: "Don't embarrass Luo Kai. How could a girl agree to give her WeChat ID to others?"
"That's right, Liu Jinge, when you were training in Hongmaple Ridge, didn't you even think of asking Li Qingqing for WeChat?"
"How dare I... I tell you, no one dared at that time! Whoever gets it will become the target of public criticism!" Liu Jinge defended.
Luo Kai listened to their words and did not explain that he was unwilling to give Li Qingqing's WeChat account to Liu Jinge just because he did not have Li Qingqing's WeChat account himself...
How can you give something you don’t have?
Speaking of which, everyone is classmates and knows Li Qingqing, so why doesn't he have Li Qingqing's WeChat account... If this is revealed, how will he face the strange looks from others?
So I can’t say it, I can’t say it.
As for whether Hu Lai would have Li Qingqing's WeChat account and how he could have such a thing, Luo Kai had never thought about it before and just assumed that they had it.
He is not ashamed to admit this, because he even asked where Li Qingqing went and what he did after leaving school, but he still asked Hu Lai...

Although he didn't leave a good impression on Li Qingqing's father when he first met him, Guan Xinyan still paid attention to Li Qingqing's situation. He always imagined that one day he would conquer Li Qingqing's father with his actual performance and improve his image in his mind.
He is also paying attention to the recent news that Li Qingqing is being sought after by many European clubs. My heart was filled with excitement after watching it, and I was determined to work hard and strive to play in Europe like Li Qingqing, becoming the first player in Chinese football to successfully study abroad after Qin Lin.
It was under such circumstances that he saw the post.
At first, he thought it was a boring work by some boring person. He took a sensational title and then made up some random content, just like the popular self-media marketing accounts. As long as it can attract traffic, even his own mother can die ( literal meaning).
After reading it, although the author of the article seemed to be justified, Guan Xinyan still didn't want to believe it - how could such a coincidence happen? Ah, the great hope of the Chinese women's football team went to some middle school and only took classes for half a semester, and met another future professional player?
Even the most YY online novels would not dare to write like this!
He scoffed.
Fake!
One hundred percent false!
Today’s self-media marketing accounts are becoming more and more shameless!
It’s really a picture at the beginning, and the content is all made up. You can make up such a story for a group photo...disgusting!
He quickly closed the link to the article, as if he was afraid that if he closed it slower, the things mentioned in the article would become reality.
※※※
Hu Lai felt that he needed to hold a press conference specifically for this matter to answer everyone's questions.
Since this article appeared, he has been on WeChat, and basically all of them are from his teammates on the Olympic team.
And the methods are very similar. Basically, they post a link to this article first, or a screenshot of the content, and then ask: "Is it true that I fucked Hu Lai?!"
Hu Lai could only copy the answer. When someone asked him, he would paste it directly: "Thank you for the invitation. It's true. Ask about suicide again."
"??? Why did you commit suicide?" Li Qingqing asked in confusion.
Only then did Hu Lai realize that the person who had just spoken to him was Li Qingqing...
"Uh, it's nothing, I answered the wrong question..."
"Did someone ask you about that post?" Li Qingqing asked.
"Did you watch it too?"
"Yes, didn't you read what I just sent you?"
Hu Lai scrolled up the chat history and discovered that Li Qingqing had also sent him the link to the article, and then asked: "Hu Lai, have you read this?"
First send a link and then ask a question. The format is exactly the same as that of his Olympic teammates. No wonder he answered wrongly...
So Hu Lai could only reply with an emoticon of covering his face, laughing and crying.
"You know why I had to pretend I didn't know you in Hongmaple Ridge, right?" Li Qingqing also posted an emoticon of covering her mouth and laughing.
"I've always known it, so you see I haven't asked you yet." Hu Lai replied. "You are a star. You are popular wherever you go. If those people know that I have known you for a long time, will I be torn apart by them?"
"That's an exaggeration, Hu Lai. And why do I think you are mocking me? Huh?"
"No, no, don't make blind assumptions." Hu Lai posted a three-part denial emoji that said, "I'm not, I don't, don't make nonsense."
Li Qingqing first posted a picture of covering her mouth and laughing, and then said: "I'm sorry, Hu Lai."
"Why are you saying sorry?"
"I've caused you trouble..."
"Are you talking about the harassment from my Olympic teammates? No trouble, no trouble, I just need to copy and paste."
"Is that enough?"
"Yes."
"Won't they keep asking you?"
"I asked but didn't reply."
"No reply? Is that okay?"
"What's not allowed? 'Ask about suicide again'. Look, I've already committed suicide, how can I still answer their questions?"
Li Qingqing stared at Hu Lai's answer on the phone, feeling like "what he said makes sense, but I am speechless."
Then she typed on the keyboard of her mobile phone: "But then not only your Olympic team teammates, but also reporters will come and ask you..."
"Just ask, and if you ask, just answer honestly and say that you and I met when we were freshmen in Dongchuan Middle School. You were a transfer student, and I was an unlucky guy who was late and was punished by the class teacher. Or are we? What's wrong with knowing each other? Are you ashamed of knowing me, Li Qingqing?" Hu Lai asked.
"No, of course not. Actually...I'm glad to meet you, Hu Lai." After answering, Li Qingqing added another question, "What about you?"
"Nice to meet you too!"
If I didn’t know you, I don’t know how many times I would have been hit in the face by a football in that secret base covered with weeds...
After finishing the conversation with Hu Lai, Li Qingqing looked at the little red dots on his mobile phone WeChat that he had not yet clicked on. They were all teammates from the national team and the club asking whether he and Hu Lai had known each other for a long time.
He hasn't answered them yet.
She clicked on Xu Wen's dialog box and entered: "Yes, we have known each other since high school."
Then copy this message, paste it one by one and send it.
Before all the results were pasted, Xu Wen's second question came: "Wow? Really? Under what circumstances did you meet?"
Looking at the secondary inquiries sent by Xu Wen and other teammates, Li Qingqing frowned.
She also really wants to be able to "ask suicide again" like Hu Lai... But unfortunately that is not her style, and she still can't be as free and easy as Hu Lai.
※※※
As soon as Hu Lai put down his cell phone, there was a rush of footsteps next door, and then Wang Guangwei rushed to the door of his room and looked at him with wide eyes: "Fuck Hu Lai..."
He didn't finish his words, because Hu Lai had already raised his hand to signal him to shut up, and then said under his surprised eyes: "Thank you. It's true. Ask about suicide again."
"..." Wang Guangwei's lips moved a few times, but he still couldn't ask any more questions. (End of chapter)
