Chapter 14: The Strongest of the Newcomers

As a student, there are probably few people who like Monday, because it means a long week of studying. They wish they could have a longer, longer weekend because they haven't had enough of it......

Hulai, on the other hand, hopes that a new week will come soon.

Because it means he has three more opportunities to play after school – on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays after school.

Luo Kai is also looking forward to the arrival of the new week, because then he can see Li Qingqing again.

After that game, he believed that his image in Li Qingqing's mind must be radiant.

In order to further consolidate his image in Li Qingqing's mind, he has made an appointment with the fifth class of high school, just after school on Tuesday.

After making preparations, he extended an invitation to Li Qingqing to watch the game on Tuesday morning.

But to his surprise, Li Qingqing refused this time!

"Ah, I'm sorry, Luo Kai, I have to go home directly after school." Li Qingqing smiled politely.

After school, she was going to coach Hulai, how could she go to watch Luo Kai play?

"Really? It's okay, I'll just ask...... "Although he was very unwilling to be rejected, Luo Kai still tried his best to show a gentlemanly demeanor in front of Li Qingqing, he squeezed out a chic smile, and then turned around and gritted his teeth and left.

On the court after school in the afternoon, the competition between the first and second classes and the fifth class of high school is going on.

Luo Kai shot low after passing three people in a row, and the football almost flew into the goal in a dead corner, and the goalkeeper of the first and fifth classes of high school stood in place and didn't even make a move.

There was a burst of cheers from the first and second classes of high school, and Li Zhiqun rushed to Luo Kai with his teammates to celebrate with him.

But Luo Kai waved at them, turned and ran back to his own half.

Li Zhiqun looked at him stupidly, and motioned for the others not to go up, so as not to be bored.

He had somewhat guessed why Kai Ge was so excited after scoring a goal - because there was no figure in the stands......

If it hadn't been for the people in Class 5, Kai Ge would have even had the heart to cancel this game......

※※※

"That's amazing."

A tall and handsome figure in the stands put his hands in his pockets and exclaimed to the people around him.

The companion who was a head shorter than him sighed, "This is his seventh goal, right?" The fifth class of the first year of high school has been beaten stupid. I feel like their goalkeeper doesn't want to play anymore, it's miserable...... Team Chu, he is the 'strongest newcomer'? ”

The tall and handsome boy who was called the "Chu Team" nodded and said, "Luo Kai, who is in the first and second classes of high school, is said to have received professional training before. There are a lot of freshmen in this class who have played well, but he is the best. ”

"It is said that the level of new coaches is also very high, and with Luo Kai and other newcomers, maybe we can really go to the national competition." The companion looked at Luo Kai on the field and sighed.

"Let's defeat Jiaxiang first." Team Chu shook his head.

Jiaxiang High School in the provincial capital next door is now the hegemon of high school football in the province, since the country began to hold a unified national high school football championship, it has represented Andong Province to participate in the national competition for five consecutive years, and it is now the golden sign of high school football in Andong Province.

"With Luo Kai, I think I can fight with Jiaxiang." Said the companion.

While speaking, Luo Kai on the field scored another goal, and similarly, after scoring the goal, Luo Kai turned around and ran back to his half, without any intention of celebrating, with no expression on his face.

"After the goal, I don't like to look like it, I really have the ......demeanor of a general," his companion praised, the more he looked at Luo Kai, the more he liked it, he seemed to see that in this year's provincial qualifiers, Luo Kai conquered the city for Dongchuan Middle School, helped them defeat Jiaxiang High School, topped the Andong Provincial High School football arena, and became the provincial representative to participate in the national competition.

Team Chu snorted: "Whoever scores eight goals in a game won't celebrate anymore, right?" ”

With that, he turned and walked down the stands.

"Eh, don't you want to see it?" The companion was a little surprised.

"Well, I don't look at it. I've got to go back to my homework. Team Chu said. You think I'm your sophomore in high school? ”

"Hey, what's wrong with our sophomore year of high school? We also have a lot of homework in our sophomore year of high school! The companion turned and followed. I'm going back to my homework too! ”

"I'll take the college entrance examination next year." The Chu team, who was walking in front, said.

"We ...... the year after tomorrow" The companion stopped halfway through his words, and he suddenly realized why Team Chu was saying this.

Next year's college entrance examination, so this winter is his last chance, whether he can participate in the national competition depends on this time.

Unlike other schools that use more experienced senior high school players as captains, the Chu team has been the captain since the first year of high school. Because at that time, only he could handle Dongchuan Middle School.

He came here when the football team of Dongchuan Middle School was at its lowest point, and he was tasked with reviving the reputation of Dongchuan Middle School as a "traditional football powerhouse", but two years later, he failed to complete this task.

In the first year, he was full of spirits, but the reality gave him a blow in the face - Dongchuan Middle School was eliminated in the first round of the qualifiers.

In the second year, he became more mature, and with the help of his new teammates, he reached the third round of the qualifiers in one go, and saw that he was only two games away from the finals, but he met the powerful Jiaxiang High School and lost without any suspense.

This year is the third year of high school for the Chu team, and it is also his last chance to attack the national competition.

Thinking of this, he stopped, looked back at the court, and found Luo Kai's figure.

I hope this kid will fight for his breath and help the Chu team realize this wish.

If it does, I'll give you the captain this time next year.

Luo Kai scored again, and there was a burst of cheers in the stands, it was the girls in the first and second classes of high school, and they came to cheer for Luo Kai.

It's not an official game between the two classes, it's school time again, so there aren't many people in the stands. The cheers of the dozen or so girls were particularly clear.

"Come on for the first and second shifts!"

"Come on, Luo Kai!"

"Luo Kai is so handsome!!"

"Luo Kai is the best!!"

These cheers were harsh to the ears of the players in the fifth class of high school, and many people looked at the figure who did not celebrate after the goal, and wanted to look up to the sky and roar - God! How unjust you are! The ball is played well, the person is handsome, and it is so popular with girls...... So many good things, how can they be concentrated on him alone!

In the murderous eyes of the players in the first and fifth classes, and in the high-pitched cheers of the girls in the first and second classes, Luo Kai looked calm and even a little boring......

He scored so many goals in Class 15, but he found that his inner emotions were still not relieved.

If you don't have you by your side, what's the point of reaching the pinnacle of life?

No, if you weren't around, it wouldn't be the pinnacle of life at all!

He lifted his head slightly and looked at the western sky covered with sunset.

The golden clouds seemed to have turned green, and they were smiling at him.
