Chapter Forty-Nine: I Laugh and Talk to That Jack

Wilshire didn't know what to say when he faced Zhou Yi, so he pointed to his jersey and then to Zhou Yi.

The meaning is clear, swap jerseys!

For two consecutive games, the top names of the opposing team came to Zhou Yi to exchange jerseys, which attracted the attention of most people.

Liang Qiqi stood alone on the court and no one paid attention to it, but Zhou Yi exchanged jerseys with others, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

There has been a difference in treatment.

"No problem. Zhou Yi said in English, as a student party in the third year of high school, English is naturally compulsory, and the grades cannot be bad. Zhou Yi's mother attaches great importance to academic performance, and English is naturally a subject she focuses on.

Wilshire was overjoyed to see that Zhou Yi could speak English, took off his clothes and handed them to Zhou Yi and said in English: "It's a pity that you guys lost this ball, if you were still on the field in the second half, I believe it wouldn't be so miserable." It's a pity that you went down in the second half, were you injured? I see you were supported by your teammates at the end of the first half......

His cannon-like English collapsed and Zhou Yi was completely stupid.

As a senior in high school, he does know English, and his English test scores are not bad. However, English education in China focuses more on writing and reading, and listening and speaking have always been weaknesses.

Zhou Yi can say something is already good, Wilshire obviously thinks of him as a Chinese teenager who can master English conversation, he says it so quickly, and with a local accent, how can Zhou Yi understand?

However, Zhou Yi is known as "quick and wise". Although he didn't understand, he could guess, in this case, why did the other party exchange jerseys for him?

Naturally, it's because of how well you played! That's probably a compliment to yourself.

Chinese are polite and courteous, and if you praise me, I will praise you.

So after Zhou Yi handed over his jersey, he took Wilshere's jersey and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you are also great, super powerful!"

They are all very simple words and phrases such as "OK" and "Very_Good", and in order to express them clearly, Zhou Yi also used body language - he gave a thumbs up.

As soon as Wilshire heard Zhou Yi say that his body was fine, he was very "OK", relieved, and asked: "You played so well, did you want to come to our Arsenal?

After Zhou Yi finished praising Wilshere, following the traditional virtues of Chinese, he wanted to show humility to himself, so he shook his head: "My performance is not good, my physical fitness is not good......"

Wilshire saw Zhou Yi shaking his head at his invitation, and listened to him "NONONO", thinking that Zhou Yi had rejected his invitation, he said regretfully: "Ah...... That's a shame, well, I wish you the best of luck and hopefully we'll see each other again in the future!"

Zhou Yi still said "OK" again and again.

So the agreement between Wilshire and Zhou Yi to meet again was decided......

A few years later, Wilshire recounted his past with Zhou Yi, saying that they had made an appointment to meet again from that time.

When the reporter ran to Zhou Yi for verification, Zhou Yi laughed: "That's right! There is such a decision!"

But if the reporters knew what happened next when they first met, I am afraid that they would have a better understanding of Zhou Yi's hearty laughter......

After Zhou Yi and Wilshire finished communicating and shook hands to say goodbye, their teammates also surrounded him, very interested in the communication between him and Wilshere.

In the last game, Zhou Yi became the first person in the team to exchange jerseys with the opponent, and in this game, Zhou Yi became the first person in the team to chat with the opponent.

"Zhou Yi, you kid can also speak English, amazing!" Sun Pan sighed.

"What did you talk about?" Yang Muge asked.

He complimented me on a good job, and I showed my humility and complimented him. The British are honest and love to tell the truth!" Zhou Yi's current performance does not look like "modesty" at all......

But he also has the confidence to say so, because everyone sees how he performs, good, it's good. Unlike that Liang Qiqi, it is clear that he is a substitute who can't play the main force in the youth team of his club, and when he enters the team, he bragged that he didn't play because he was injured before, and now when he participates in the reality show, isn't the main position when he goes back?

Now everyone knows that Liang Qiqi is simply bragging!

Hearing Zhou Yi say this, his teammates agreed and praised Zhou Yi's performance.

At this time, He Ying, who walked by the crowd, couldn't help but say: "People are asking why you were replaced at halftime, and he thought you were injured." ”

"Uh......" Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment.

When the teammates around saw Zhou Yi's appearance, they all burst into laughter, and Li Xiang shouted: "Dare to love you two are chickens and ducks!"

"You can talk about this for a long time, you are also amazing, Zhou Yi ......" Sun Pan patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder, obviously he was not really admiring Zhou Yi.

Yang Muge also shook his head and smiled bitterly - he was really deceived by Zhou Yi's serious nonsense before, and it was not the first time he was deceived by Zhou Yi like this, no way, he was so easy to trust people!

Guo Nu looked at Zhou Yi dumbfounded, he thought that Zhou Yi was really able to communicate with that foreigner, looking at his calm appearance, that expression, that action, that tone...... It's so natural, I just want to talk to them.

Who knows, it turns out that Zhou Yi is talking nonsense!

Zhou Yi's lofty image in his heart suddenly broke like this...... I used to think that Zhou Yi was really powerful, but now I think this is a tease......

Everyone laughed happily, but Zhou Yi, who was in the crowd, didn't feel ridiculed, he scratched his head, and laughed too: "Ha, ha, ha, haha!"

The laughter of the Chinese teenagers caught the attention of Hao Dong and others, who turned their heads to see their players laughing happily in a circle.

Some people covered their stomachs with laughter, some people held their foreheads with laughter, and some people laughed and lay on their teammates.

"What's going on?" Xu Yang looked puzzled.

"I don't know. Hao Dong shrugged. "But at the very least, we don't have to worry about the emotional problems after the team loses. ”

"I think eighty percent of it is related to Zhou Yi. Only that kid has that ability. Xu Yang said, his gaze falling on Zhou Yi, who was laughing with him in the crowd.

While everyone was laughing happily, Liang Qiqi stood alone on the periphery, looking at the scene in front of him incomprehensibly.

He didn't understand why his teammates, who were still depressed just now, suddenly burst into laughter, he didn't understand why Zhou Yi would become the focus of everyone's attention no matter what he did, and he didn't understand why Zhou Yi had now become the core of this team, whether on or off the field......

The most incomprehensible thing for him is why it would be such an amateur player he despises to make himself defeated!

Jack Wilshire was about to leave when he was stopped by Academy Director Brady.

"Jack, what did you talk to about that Sixteen?"

"Oh, I thought he was injured and was substituted after only half the game, so I went and asked. One told me he was fine. Wilshire said.

"Looks like you're interested in him, what do you think of his play, Jack?" asked Brady with a smile.

'Well, even though he only played half the game, I think he was the best guy in that team. Wilshire said, looking at the Chinese teenagers.

"Ah, you think so highly of him. So how does it compare to you?"

"Of course it's not as good as mine!" Wilshire replied without even thinking about it, "but I'm not exactly in the same position as him, and I don't have a different style of play, so there's really no comparison...... Wilshere shrugged.

'But I invited him to come to Arsenal. ”

"Huh?" Brady was intrigued by Wilshere's words, "what did he say?"

"He rejected me. Wilshire sighed with some regret, "What a shame......"

Brady didn't speak, but set his eyes on Zhou Yi.

At dinner, Zhou Yi, Guo Nu, Sun Pan and Yang Muge sat together to eat as usual.

When he was about to finish eating, Zhou Yi said to everyone that he would continue special training in the evening.

But this time, before Sun Pan could object, Guo Nu shook his head first: "No, no special training, Zhou Yi." ”

"Huh?" Zhou Yi was surprised.

Sun Pan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I think what's more important than training me right now is...... It's a special training for you. Guo Nu said very seriously.

This time, not only Zhou Yi, but even Sun Pan and Yang Muge were surprised.

"I, I...... I think ......" Guo Nu suddenly became nervous and stuttered when he spoke. "I think you'...... You need to improve your fitness, your fitness. So, so you don't--you won't be replaced so soon. Guo Nu paused for a moment and continued.

"Physical training is very boring, so I will accompany you and you to train together!"

Zhou Yi opened his mouth, he even forgot to eat, and he could still see half-chewed food residues in his mouth......

At the door of Guo Nu's room, Zhou Yi, Sun Pan and Yang Muge waited together, and soon Guo Nu came out of the room, holding a flannel bag in his hand, and he handed the bag to Zhou Yi's hand.

"Damn, it's so heavy!" As soon as he caught the bag, Zhou Yi's hand fell down, and his arm was pulled off unsuspectingly.

"What is this?" Sun Pan lifted the bag from Zhou Yi's hand, it was indeed a bit heavy.

"Iβ€”the sandbag I used to work out, tied to my legs. Guo Nu said.

Zhou Yi took back the bag from Sun Pan's hand and really took out two sandbags from it, which is the appearance of the sandbags...... It's not pretty.

Two sandbags sewn with cloth, it is impossible to see what the cloth itself looks like, because the top patches are patched on top of each other, and the largest patch is almost half the size of this sandbag. All patches, regardless of their original color, are somewhat white, reflecting the traces of time.

The sandbags are zippered and frayed around the edges.

"This ......" Yang Muge couldn't help but be moved when he saw such a tattered sandbag.

"This is what I, my mom, my mom made for me, and I started wearing this running and walking to play football when I was very young. It really helps when it comes to building stamina. Guo Nu said, "Now I lend this to you, Zhou Yi, I hope you can improve your physical fitness through it." ”

Zhou Yi held the two sandbags in both hands and looked at them carefully.

Obviously, Guo Nu regarded these two sandbags that had accompanied him since he was a child as treasures, otherwise he would not have specially used a flannel bag that was better than this sandbag.

"Thank you, Lao Guo. Zhou Yi raised his head and said to Guo Nu sincerely.

Guo Nu grinned, he was also very happy to be able to help Zhou Yi.

"But......" Zhou Yi frowned, "You said you wore this when you were very young?" but if you are too young to bear weight all day long, it will affect your development......

"What nonsense, Zhou Yi, Lao Guo is short if he doesn't wear this thing!" Sun Pan retorted. "Look at my height, I don't have a brick hanging from the horizontal bar under my feet, but I'm that tall......! Talent!"

Listening to the bickering between Zhou Yi and Sun Pan, Guo Nu's face flushed, but soon the red tide receded, obviously Guo Nu, who was hit by Zhou Yi and Sun Pan all day long, has been effective in emotional control.

Yang Muge was worried that Guo Nu was out of control, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, let's go to training, didn't you say that you would accompany Zhou Yi to special training?"

He pushed Zhou Yi and Sun Pan to the elevator, Guo Nu followed behind the three, and the four of them ran towards the hotel's gym.
