It finally started to rain in the northern part of Seoul, which had been sunny for several days.

It wasn't too much rain, but judging from the thick clouds in the sky, the rain probably wouldn't stop anytime soon.

Fortunately, all the group stages were over yesterday, and today is the "rest day" for the remaining 16 school players who have successfully qualified, and they have a total of two days of rest to adjust their form, and then there is an even more brutal knockout round waiting for them.

Li Kong woke up on time at half past seven in the morning as usual, because the team did not bring enough umbrellas this time, so he took a few early players to the canteen at eight o'clock and brought back two large bags of steamed buns and milk for twenty people, so that the congregation would not have to wait for the umbrella to go to the canteen for breakfast.

In yesterday afternoon's game, Busan Sanggyung High School won a thrilling victory against Buksan High School with a corner kick opportunity in the final minute of the game, and the school that was bloodied by Yangzhi High School in the first group game was lucky to break into the knockout round, while the other two teams had to say goodbye to this tournament with regret.

Since yesterday afternoon, the youth training base has been eliminated school players have moved out of the players' dormitories, take the school bus back to school, to the end of the last round of the group stage in the afternoon, after the last eliminated team left, the entire youth training base is only left with more than 300 players.

Li Kong was standing in front of the apartment building at that time, looking at the departing school buses, and his emotions were very complicated.

The competition of any sport is so cruel, only the winner has the qualification to stay and move on, and those who lose, who will pay attention to them? How similar is this to his current situation? If he wins, he may win hope for the future, and if he loses, he will have nothing, very simple, and very cruel.

However, there was also good news for Li Kong yesterday afternoon, as he was voted the "best player in the group stage" of this tournament.

This is the result of discussion and selection by the observers of the youth training department of the Korean Football Association, which can be regarded as a high recognition of Lee Kong's performance in the group stage by Korean football officials.

Li Kong was indeed very happy to learn that he had won this award, but he quickly adjusted his mentality, put this joy in his heart, and tried not to let it affect his current state.

Sometimes, there is only a thin line between self-confidence and arrogance, and Li Kong doesn't want the honor that should motivate him to move forward better into an incentive for him to become arrogant, so at this time, it is very important to suppress this joy, maintain a slightly nervous, and more calm mind to meet the next knockout round.

After breakfast, Li Kong rested for a while, and then went to the players' gym at the youth training base, and with the permission of the gym management, he was ready to start some simple, small-load muscle training.

At the same time, several people who had been training in the gym for a while frequently looked at Li Kong, among whom Li Kong only knew a shy young man with long hair, his name was Kim Yingquan, the main central defender of Jeonnam No. 3 Middle School, and also Bai Yonghao's kid's teammate, and the two had met several times.

As for the other two, he didn't know any of them.

Li Kong first greeted Kim Yingquan, and after nodding to the other two, he went directly to the treadmill and started the warm-up run before training.

After feeling the slight heat in his body, Li Kong wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and then picked up two 8-kilogram dumbbells under the watchful eye of the managers on the side, and made dumbbell birds.

In fact, this weight is very light for him, but after looking at the tiger-eyed eyes of the manager, Li Kong gave up the idea of training with dumbbells with a larger weight, 8 kilograms, just warm up......

But I have to say that these managers take good care of the young players, and they are indeed not suitable for heavy strength training at their age, but who made Li Kong a freak.

After doing 8 sets of dumbbell flying birds, Li Kong intermittently did some leg and waist and abdominal training, and after all the strength training was done, he was the only one left in the entire gym, Jin Yingquan and the other two teenagers had already left, Li Kong looked at the gym where only he and the management were left, shrugged his shoulders, and got on the treadmill again in the surprised eyes of the management.

By the time Li Kong got off the treadmill happily, the manager's facial expression was numb.

From more than eight o'clock in the morning to now, a full three and a half hours have passed, and Li Kong has also exercised here for three and a half hours without much rest, which is a lot of training for a teenager about fifteen years old, but seeing Li Kong's relaxed appearance of only a little sweat on his face and body, this manager is completely speechless.

"This kid is such a freak......"

Li Kong, who walked out of the gym, seemed to hear the manager muttering behind him, and he smiled with satisfaction.

Eh, why are you laughing? We don't understand the world of freaks~

When he left the gym, it was about twelve o'clock at noon, and when he went to the cafeteria for lunch, Li Kong returned to the dormitory leisurely.

Regardless of the opposition of his teammates, Li Kong locked the door leading to the balcony, then put one hand on the balcony, took out his mobile phone with the other, and looked at the time.

"It's half past twelve, Taeyeon should be having dinner with her friends on the playground......"

After thinking about it, Li Kong directly called Kim Taeyeon.

After about three to five seconds, Kim Tae-yeon's funny voice came out of her phone.

"Hello, who are you looking for the beautiful, cute, youthful and invincible Ms. Kim Tae-yeon?"

When Li Kong heard this girl talk like this, his scalp tingled for a while, and he unceremoniously made a disgusting sound next to the earpiece of his mobile phone, indicating how he felt in his heart now.

As a result, Kim Tae-yeon's disgusted gagging voice and another girl's coquettish voice on the other end of the phone also rang at the same time.

bluffed Li Kong standing on the balcony and was stunned.

"Haha~ I'm disgusted by myself, Lizhen, what kind of tone and expression are you? Hurry up, don't run!"

Hearing Kim Tae-yeon's somewhat out-of-the-box and incoherent words, Lee Kong said with a smile: "Moh, you are bullying Li Lizhen's children again, aren't you? Why have you been talking to you recently, and your initial tone has become more and more vulgar every time? Who did you learn from these nonsense!"

"Who did you learn it from? Hmph, I don't know what kind of stinky guy surnamed Li learned it from. ”

"Why are you scolding me again?"

"Huh, did I say that it was you who had that stinky face, why are you in such a hurry~"

"I ......"

Li Kong scratched his head very aggrievedly: "Can you damage me less, I have been in Seoul for so many days, and I haven't messed with you by your side." ”

"Then come back and mess with me!"

"Forehead ......"

Hearing Kim Taeyeon blurt out words with a little resentment, Lee Kong was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled, and the laughter gradually became more and more presumptuous: "Hahahaha, ah, our Kim Taeyeon friend, you just now, are you expressing what you mean by missing me?

The girl's voice on the other end of the phone disappeared for a moment, and then some staccato voice came from the phone again: "I, I mean, I ...... Lizhen, what are you laughing at! You dead girl, come here!"

Hearing that Kim Taeyeon changed the topic in shame and bluntness, Li Kong snickered and didn't ask her again, after all, the little girl has a thin face, and she will really be ashamed of her later, who will she talk to?

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you, it's raining here, it's going to be the next whole day, what's the weather like in Jeonju today, is it okay?" Li Kong said as he propped his phone out of the balcony a little, so that the sound of the dripping rain could reach Kim Tae-yeon's ears clearly.

"Hmm, the rain over there is a bit loud, our side, the weather is pretty good today, the clouds are a little thick, the weather is not very hot, and the wind is blowing very comfortably~"

"That's really good, you see now, after lunch, I can only stay on the balcony of my dorm room and watch the rain outside. ”

"You mean it's boring to talk to me, aren't you?"

Hearing Kim Taeyeon's disgruntled words with an obviously threatening tone, Li Kong quickly changed his words and said, "Talking to you is the only reason why I'm not bored right now, really!

After speaking, before Kim Taeyeon found out the contradiction between his sentence and the previous sentence, Lee Kong said again: "When I come back, we will go to the newly opened beef bibigram restaurant at the back door of the school to eat, okay?"

As soon as Kim Taeyeon heard that Lee Kong was going to take her to dinner, or to eat beef bibimbap, sure enough, her attention was immediately attracted to this, and she replied a little shyly: "Just, just the two of us?"

This is the first time Lee Kong has invited Kim Taeyeon to go out to dinner alone, and girls will inevitably think about dating, but our Lee Kong classmates really just want to take Kim Tae-yeon's children out to taste the food......

Li Kong said with a big grin: "Of course, do you still want to ask Pei Yongshang to come with you this time?"

Kim Taeyeon thought in her mind that there was a picture of Bae Yongshang eating wildly between herself and Lee Kong, which was quite ruinous in the atmosphere, so she immediately shook her head vigorously: "Then, so be it." ”

After a second, as if she remembered something again, Kim Taeyeon hurriedly added: "It's just going out to eat with you, and you are not allowed to think about anything else!"

Hearing Kim Taeyeon's inexplicable addition, Li Kong said with a smile: "Let's go to the back of the school for a meal, what do you little girl think! How can you put some messy things in your little head~"

Kim Taeyeon snorted very arrogantly, expressing the seriousness of what she said just now, and then waited for Li Kong to continue to find a topic, but Li Kong was also waiting for her to reply, and the two entered a small embarrassing "silent period".

Lee Kong couldn't help laughing, he knew that Kim Taeyeon would not be able to hold his breath and speak first, so he had the intention of teasing her, holding the mobile phone without speaking, and looked up at the rainy world outside.

The clouds seem to be thinner than when I got up in the morning, the sunlight is still very little, and looking out from the balcony, the entire youth training base looks a little gray under the rain curtain, which makes Li Kong can't help but miss the sunshine and clear sky in the whole state.

Li Kong looked at the rain in front of him attentively, but such a picture appeared in his mind: the weather was neither hot nor cold, the temperature was just right, and the wind would blow from time to time, and the sunlight through the thicker clouds covered the entire crown of the tree, and the girl sat on the bare tree root, leaning against the tree, puffing out her mouth in dissatisfaction, and said to the mobile phone stuck to her ear: "If you don't speak, I'll hang up!"

As soon as he thought of this, Li Kong couldn't help but draw a light smile on his face.

Kim Taeyeon waited for a while and didn't hear Li Kong speak again, she knew that Li Kong must be teasing herself again, but she still couldn't help but ask first: "Hey, talk, what are you thinking? If you don't speak, I'll hang up." ”

Sure enough, the girl's voice with a little threat came as expected: "If you don't speak, I'll hang up." ”

Li Kong grinned very happily, he cleared his throat and said word by word, "Say your words again~"

Kim Taeyeon thought for a moment and said, "If you don't talk again, I'll hang up?"

Li Kong shook his head with a smile and continued: "Ahni, the previous sentence. ”

Kim Taeyeon leaned back, looked up and saw the thick white clouds in the sky and a small piece of clear blue sky, which was very beautiful, and she asked a little lazily, "Oh, what are you thinking?"

Li Kong's low and soft voice was slow, but it floated into Kim Taeyeon's ears very clearly, itchy, but very good: "I, I'm thinking about the sunshine in Jeonju, the breeze on the top floor in the afternoon, and you who fell asleep and drooled on my shoulder, haha~"

The sound of the drizzle on one end of the phone and the sound of the late summer breeze gently blowing through the leaves on the other end blended together, and it was very harmonious, and the girl's shy soft voice sounded in the wind and quickly disappeared in the wind.

"Hey, you're just drooling, Prabhu~"
