Two amateur football teams are in full swing on the University of Liverpool's football field, with the KOP Flames from Liverpool TV taking on the Liverpool varsity team here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Boss, I need to apply for a week of vacation next week, and I will send the application to your mailbox in the evening." Ye Chen wiped his sweat and said to the fat man who was on his waist next to him that it was only half a time later, and the boss of the Flame team was a little unable to hold on.

"No problem, leaf. But you've got to help us win this game, I can't run, it's up to you. "Fat boss Jem has his eyes on the team opposite, although he can't always play the whole game due to physical problems, but the big boss's love of football has always made him rush to the front.

Ye Chen graduated from the University of Liverpool with a degree in geography and stayed in the city of Liverpool after graduating with a job at Liverpool TV. He has been working for half a year now, and it is close to the traditional Chinese festival of the Spring Festival, so he plans to apply for a week's vacation to return to China to visit his parents. Although the boss said that he won the game, he knew that the probability was relatively small, it was just Jem's motivation, and no one would want to lose the game, even if the opponent was strong.

After 90 minutes of fierce battle, these amateur players of the Flames have reached the extreme of physical strength, and the game finally survived, and the Flames lost to the varsity team 1:2. Ye Chen scored the only goal for the Flames, but it couldn't help the team win.

"Goodbye, guys, see you in a week." Ye Chen greeted his colleagues and slowly walked out of the stadium.

The players were still discussing the previous game, and no one noticed that there was a beam of light in the distant sky, like a meteor, falling on Ye Chen's way home.

"Is it a meteorite?" Ye Chen looked at the small pit under his feet, and could see that this place had undergone a strong collision, it seemed to be a meteorite, but the shape of this meteorite was too unique, it seemed to be a finger ring, and there were no meteorite fragments around, only a circular metal circle.

On January 20, 2012, just entering the legendary year of the end of the world, it was no different from the past, the sun rose in the east and set in the west, the plane took off normally, and nothing unusual happened along the way. After more than ten hours of flight, I was about to land at Pudong International Airport, and the journey was very safe.

Ye Chen took off his blindfold and leaned back on the seat, thinking that he was about to arrive at his hometown, and he couldn't suppress the joy in his heart. For several years, I studied at the University of Liverpool in the United Kingdom, during which I rarely had the opportunity to return home. After graduating last year, he successfully applied for a work visa after applying for a job at a local TV station in Liverpool, and gradually became familiar with the job requirements after working for a few months, so Ye Chen deliberately applied for a week's vacation to return to China to visit his parents on the occasion of the Spring Festival, and he didn't know when he would have the opportunity to return to China after this time.

Stretch your waist and straighten your body, the person next to Ye Chen is still asleep, after Ye Chen asked the stewardess for a glass of juice, he opened a book and read it, the stewardesses' very ritualistic smiles are more like signboards that reject people, and it seems that they don't have such a high charm to attract beauties to take the initiative to vote. Sitting next to him was a middle-aged uncle, not a fantasy beauty asking for help, and the uncle's snoring broke Ye Chen's inner illusion even more. It seems that this journey is really realistic.

"Ladies and gentlemen,

The plane is scheduled to arrive in SH in 10 minutes at a ground temperature of -1 degrees Celsius, thank you! Please sit back in your seat, fasten your seat belt, put away the tray table, and adjust the seat back to the normal position. All personal computers and electronic devices must be turned off. Please make sure that your carry-on items are properly stored. Later, we will dim the cabin lights.

Thank you! ”

Not long after the broadcast of the aircraft staff, Ye Chen felt the plane jolt for a while, and slowly a sense of steadiness emerged, and the plane successfully landed on BJ's land.

Say goodbye to these beautiful flight attendants, although I look forward to a beautiful encounter during the long journey, but the plot in the movie will not always appear simply in the lives of ordinary people. Ye Chen could only walk out of the plane alone after taking a few more glances at the beautiful flight attendant.

"Xiao Chen, here!"

As soon as he walked out of the pick-up gate, Ye Chen heard a familiar voice calling himself, and following the source of the sound, he found the two people standing at the pick-up gate. "Mom, Dad, you're here." The excited voice was a little choked, and Ye Chen hadn't seen his parents for a long time.

The parents who were slowly aging in front of them, the gray hair on their heads was increasing day by day, and the wrinkles were much more obvious, and her mother's eyes were a little ruddy, and she couldn't speak while holding Ye Chen's hand. Dad came to Ye Chen's luggage and bowed Ye Chen's shoulder, "Let's go, let's go home." ”

"Mom, this time I took a week off, plus the weekend, I can stay at home for a week after the Spring Festival, I have to stay at home for a few days this time." After Ye Chen's family got into the car, Ye Chen and his mother sat in the back row and talked.

"Well, Xiaochen will stay for a few more days, Mom will cook a lot of delicious food for you, you see that you have lost weight in the past few years in school." It seems that Ye Chen, who goes out in the eyes of his mother, has never been fat.

"It's not thin, it's getting muscular, and when I was in England I used to play football with my friends. The eldest brother also sometimes goes together, and Qiang Qiang and Xiaozhi also like to play football. ”

"Speaking of your eldest brother, we haven't seen them for a long time, I especially want Qiang Qiang and Xiaozhi now, can you get used to staying in a foreign country for such a young child?" Speaking of Ye Chen's cousin, Mother Ye sighed again.

"Xiao Cong has been in the UK for so long, and she married a British daughter-in-law, Qiang Qiang and Xiao Zhi are half foreigners when they are born, how can you not get used to it, you woman is really short-sighted." Ye Chen's father jokingly mocked his wife while driving.

"As far as you know, I mean Xiaocong's parents left so early, they have worked hard in the UK alone for so many years, and finally have a child without a parent to help, I feel sorry for this child, who is as heartless as you. Besides, Xiaochen has been studying abroad all these years thanks to Xiaocong's care. ”

Seeing that his parents began to talk again, Ye Chen hurriedly took over the topic, not that the relationship between the two was not good, in fact, they were both knife-mouthed tofu hearts, so they liked to choke each other, if they didn't stop them, they didn't know when they would talk about it.

"Dad, my mother is right, thanks to my eldest brother's care, it is much easier for me to go to school in the UK, and I often go to my eldest brother's house, Xiaozhi and Qiang Qiang also like me very much. Now that I'm also working, my family is not as tight as the money I used to be, and when I have the opportunity, you two elders will also go to the UK to see the eldest brother and them, and relax. ”

When Mother Ye heard her son say this, she was naturally very proud in her heart. "You see, my son still understands me, and my mother really loves you so much. I must make some time to go over and take a look in the future, I really want to see Qiang Qiang and Xiaozhi, why didn't you say your eldest brother came back with you this year. ”

"Mom, there is no Spring Festival in the UK, I am here to come back and apply for a week's holiday, and my eldest brother also said that I will bring my sister-in-law and children back to visit you when I have time next year."

The fatigue of the journey did not affect the chat between Ye Chen and his parents, and in the midst of laughter, the group slowly drove home.
