Chapter 8: The One with the Highest Card

Zhou Yi's first meal at the training base was lunch on the day of registration, and he ate in the restaurant not far from the dormitory building.

Here, Zhou Yi not only saw Sun Pan, Yang Muge, and the irascible man Guo Nu again, but also met other teammates.

As soon as Sun Pan saw Zhou Yi, he warmly beckoned him to sit over.

So Zhou Yi walked over with a stainless steel dinner plate and sat with Sun Pan and Yang Muge.

"Eh, Zhou Yi, have you heard?" As soon as Zhou Yi's ass sat down, Sun Pan came up and said mysteriously, there seemed to be some new news.

"What did you hear? Do you have any new news?" Zhou Yi was also very energetic, and immediately responded enthusiastically.

This made Sun Pan very happy - if he was excited to say a gossip, but no one listened, how boring it would be. If you play the piano well, you must also have Bole, who is willing to play the piano to the cow?

Sun Pan liked Zhou Yi to be such a cooperative person, so he lowered his voice again and said, "Didn't you ask me who else didn't come except you in the morning?"

"That's right. Could it be that man is here?"

Sun Pan snorted lightly: "Of course, the big-name star, of course, he has to be the last to appear, otherwise how can he be the finale? And the head coach personally went to the gate to greet him and take him to report." Look at the treatment...... Tsk!"

"The head coach personally took it to report...... Why is he being treated like this?"

"He is the only national player in our team. Sun Pan spread out his hand and shrugged.

"Isn't our team said to be the strongest in China in the same age group, isn't it normal to have international players?" Zhou Yi felt that Sun Pan said very strangely, the only national player?

As soon as Zhou Yi asked this, Sun Pan stopped talking, and he was silent when he had always talked, and Yang Muge next to him answered Zhou Yi's question for him.

"That's just media propaganda, a gimmick, in fact, we are not the strongest in the same age group in China at all. Shouldn't the strongest be the U17 (national team under the age of 17)? In that case, just let the national youth team go, why do we have to temporarily form a team?" Yang Muge doesn't talk much, but his few words are different from He Ying, even if he doesn't speak, he will always have a smile on his face, while He Ying will have a cold face and don't say a word. One is a warm man, and the other is a cold man.

In order to explain this problem to Zhou Yi clearly, Yang Muge rarely said so much in one breath.

"So it's actually ......," Zhou Yi had already guessed.

Yang Muge nodded: "Many of us may not be able to play the main team in the youth team of our respective clubs, otherwise which club's youth team is willing to send the main players to participate in a playful reality TV show?"

"It turns out that no one pays attention to it at all......" Zhou Yi thought of the excitement in his heart when he saw the news on TV, it turned out that it was because he had never seen the world. How can people who have seen the world take the propaganda seriously? He was a little disappointed, he felt that if this show was not good, everyone would go to European cities to do some games, take some scenic photos, and it would be over. He is now even beginning to wonder if he will ever be able to meet the youth talents of the European giants.

"Originally, who would believe that a group of people who have been put together on an improvised basis can be qualified to challenge the youth academies of giants like Barcelona and Real Madrid?" Sun Pan snorted beside him. "When Europeans hear this, they must think we're. ”

Yang Muge didn't continue to say it, he said everything that should be said, and it would inevitably be discouraged if he continued to talk about it, he didn't want to hit the morale of this new teammate.

But Zhou Yi continued to think along this topic: "So, in order to make our team look less weak and look better, the program team found a person from the national youth team?"

"That's right, it's not a substitute for the national youth team, it's the main force, the main striker!" Sun Pan's words sounded sarcastic to Zhou Yi.

"Striker......" Zhou Yi frowned as soon as he heard this word, he is also a striker, his competitors are so strong, he can only play as a substitute, if he can't play in Europe, what a pity.

"Yes, it feels like our head coach's own son......" Sun Pan lowered his voice when he said this, obviously he also knew that it was not good to slander the coach behind his back.

"Since he is such a powerful person, why do you want to participate in our reality show? Didn't Yang Muge say that those clubs were unwilling to play with us before?" Zhou Yi had another doubt.

"I heard that our head coach used a little personal relationship to get it, so it's a baby......"

As he was talking, there was a commotion at the door of the restaurant, and many people who were eating put down their chopsticks and spoons and looked up.

Then Sun Pan, Zhou Yi, and Yang Muge saw a person walking in at the door of the restaurant.

"Hey, the main character is here. Even the last one to eat is the finale, huh!" Sun Pan snorted from his nose.

But Zhou Yi was dumbfounded.

Why?

Because it is none other than ...... He Ying, his roommate!

※※※

When He Ying walked into the restaurant, he could clearly feel that the originally noisy restaurant was quiet, and countless pairs of eyes were watching him.

However, He Ying is not surprised by this, nor is he unfamiliar with it.

As the main striker of China's under-17 national youth team, he is used to facing such treatment.

He also paid no attention to the gazes that were directed at him, whether they were curious, flattering, or disdainful.

Without squinting, he walked straight to the window where he was cooking, picked up the stainless steel plate, and began to order.

He didn't order much, and he deliberately avoided particularly greasy dishes, and he didn't ask for any of the pork that was popular with others.

After ordering, he took the plate and walked directly to an empty table to eat.

The restaurant is not small, after all, it is a comprehensive training base, not only a football field, but also a tennis court, a bicycle training ground, and a golf course...... A series of venues, and there are many people participating in the training, and the restaurant must ensure that so many people eat at the same time. Now the training base is only for the players of these football teams to train here, and most of the huge cafeteria is empty, and there are many empty tables, so he doesn't have to bother to look for them.

Zhou Yi quickly observed the situation in the restaurant, and some people wanted to sit down and chat, but obviously they didn't have enough courage. Zhou Yi deeply understood this, he was in the dormitory room, trying to find something to chat with He Ying and liven up the atmosphere, but when he thought of He Ying's dead fish-like eyes, he couldn't open his mouth.

Others looked at He Ying with disdainful eyes, and they didn't like this budding bird, Sun Pan was a typical representative.

Zhou Yi retracted his gaze.

Sun Pan was still muttering: "I don't know which unlucky one was in the same room with him...... Of course, it's a big name, and it's possible to live in a single room......"

As he was talking, he saw Zhou Yi pointing at himself.

Sun Pan wondered: "What are you doing?"

"Me. Zhou Yi said.

"What are you?" Sun Pan was confused.

"I'm the one who was unlucky. Zhou Yi pointed to himself and said.

※※※

"You live in the same room as He Ying?" came out of the restaurant, and just walked not far away, Sun Pan couldn't wait to ask.

Zhou Yi nodded: "Yes." ”

"Is it cool?" Sun Pan asked.

"It's so cool, I don't think I need to turn on the air conditioner when I sleep at night. Zhou Yi replied.

Hearing his description, Sun Pan laughed, and his hearty laughter instantly floated out more than ten meters, attracting sideways glances from pedestrians on the road, and he quickly covered his mouth.

Even Yang Muge next to him smiled because of Zhou Yi's words.

"I heard that He Ying is very cold, very cold to people, very arrogant, listening to your description, it seems that the rumors are correct. Sun Pan lowered his voice.

"I can fully understand your situation, if you want me to be roommates with him, I have to kill myself!" Sun Pan said a little exaggeratedly.

Zhou Yi nodded again and again: "I understand." ”

Of course he does.

In the same room as Sun Pan's chatter, even if Sun Pan had no prejudice against He Ying before, it is estimated that he can suffocate him with that kind of almost frozen indoor air.

"Well, I can't help you with that. Brother, ask for more blessings for yourselves. Sun Pan patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder, and his tone was solemn, as if Zhou Yi would go to the execution ground when he returned to the dormitory.

Yang Muge smiled beside him and said: "It's not so exaggerated, Zhou Yi, don't provoke him, I don't think he is a person who takes the initiative to find trouble." ”

Sun Pan originally wanted to agree with his roommate, but when he was only halfway through his head, he suddenly remembered something, and his face changed: "This is not necessarily, Yang Muge." I don't think Zhou Yi is a person who doesn't cause trouble......"

Hearing him say this, Yang Muge's face also changed, and then he and Sun Pan glanced at each other, and they both saw the same idea from each other's eyes - obviously they thought of going together.

Zhou Yi didn't expect the two friends to change their opinions about him so quickly, he expressed his dissatisfaction with this, pointed to his face and asked: "Hey, look at me, look at my harmless appearance, you touch your conscience and say, do I look like the kind of person who is very good at causing trouble?"

Sun Pan and Yang Muge nodded at the same time, and said in unison: "Like!"
