Chapter 29: Celebration Banquet

At 7 o’clock in the evening, Coach Dan brought everyone including Lu Li to a famous local restaurant. In fact, generally speaking, before the game is over, the diet of athletes should be strictly controlled, and they are not allowed to eat unchecked food, but Coach Dan obviously doesn’t care about these “small” rules. After all, he was a former national-level athlete who was a coach at Chuanhai. In his previous life, he had used his connections to send Zou Yameng to the provincial team. In short, Coach Dan should not be regarded as just a coach.

This afternoon, Lu Li checked out of the room, packed his bag and left under the complaining eyes of the proprietress, and then checked into the hotel without blushing or beating his heart. Coach Dan waved his hand and opened another room for him. This female coach with a mean face and always unsmiling looked at Lu Li with a particularly gentle look.

After that, he had to deal with a group of over-energetic female athletes. They surrounded Lu Li and asked him questions. Some of the brave ones couldn’t help but reach out and pinch Lu Li’s face. This is the result of not working hard. If you don’t work hard, you will become a woman’s plaything. After Sister Yameng came back from talking with Coach Dan, the group of girls became honest again, just like ladies from a noble family.

“Woo woo, Xiaolizi, what skin care products do you use? Your skin is so smooth~” Zhou Wen was the most unserious among the group, and her saliva was flowing down.

Lu Li’s forehead was sweating: “I don’t use skin care products.”

Sister Yameng went over and pinched her bestie’s nose: “Okay, you took advantage of me when I was not around, right?”

“Don’t pinch, don’t pinch, if you pinch your nose again, you won’t be able to catch any handsome guys.”

Zou Yameng sat next to Lu Li and couldn’t help holding Lu Li’s hand: “They didn’t do anything to you, did they?”

Nothing? Sister, don’t you know how enthusiastic the girls in the women’s sports school are? Lu Li wiped the sweat off his face calmly.

“The sisters are all very nice to me.”

Zou Yameng looked at her teammates suspiciously. She didn’t believe it. How could she not know what these girls were like?

“You are not allowed to do anything to my brother. It is absolutely not allowed!” Zou Yameng took out the aura of the captain and spoke righteously. She rarely pointed fingers at her teammates because she was the captain. This is probably one of the reasons why she is so popular.

Everyone chatted in the hotel for a while, and played poker for a while - there is no ambiguity, literally playing cards - and then waited until seven o’clock in the evening. The girls followed Zou Yameng excitedly, discussing what dishes in Lingyue City are delicious, what dishes will not make you fat, and what dishes will make you thinner if you add left-handed food.

After sitting down in the hotel and eating five kinds of dishes, the girls’ topic naturally came to today’s game.

“Xiao Meng, have you been online? The video of your match today has been played over 100,000 times! You are going to be famous!”

“Your last ball was so cool! It was full of tension. It felt like a hole would be punched into anyone who was hit by that ball.”

“Yes, yes, He Ping was shocked at that time! My God, I never thought that He Ping would be shut out!”

Coach Dan smiled and opened a can of beer: “Is anyone underage? Be conscious and don’t drink.”

“Cheers to Xiao Meng~”

“Long live Sister Ya Meng~”

Although Lu Li’s cup was filled with Wangzai milk, he still clinked glasses with everyone. He was not familiar with the athletes of the Sichuan Hai Women’s Team, but the atmosphere on the scene made him blend in. He was actually a pessimistic and negative person, but he liked the optimistic and positive atmosphere. This made him feel that his life in this world had some meaning.

His eyes could not help but drift to Sister Ya Meng, and they happened to meet Sister Ya Meng’s eyes looking at him. A thick affection that seemed to be real flowed from Sister Yameng’s eyes. Half of her eyes were filled with joy, and the other half was an emotion that he could not understand.

Lu Li drank the milk in one gulp and poured himself a glass of beer. He was not a person who liked to drink, but he hoped to get drunk today.

After three rounds of drinking, the girls’ topics became more and more unrestrained, but Lu Li seemed to be isolated from the world, just looking at Sister Yameng and pouring drinks. Zou Yameng smiled happily. She might have been a little drunk, and her communication with her teammates became more and more unrestrained. Such Zou Yameng was very beautiful, not physically beautiful, but like a flying bird with wings dyed with glory, full of the beauty called freedom.
