“Hotels in London are… so damn expensive!”
When Li Polo opened his eyes again, this was the first thought that popped into his mind.
Yesterday's impulsive behavior reduced his wealth by one-fifth. This consumption pattern is by no means a long-term solution.
Looking at the ceiling of the room, he silently made a vow:
[I must work harder in the future, play football well and make a lot of money! ]
A slippery thigh suddenly climbed up his waist:
"Good morning, baby!"
He looked down and saw the vast white snow-capped mountains dotted with gorgeous bright red.
These bright red spots seemed to have a strange magic that attracted all of his attention.
[I don’t seem to remember the oath I made just now. 】
[Starting from this afternoon, I will definitely play football well! ]
After changing his oath, Li Polo turned over.
Lisanna let out a low cry:
"Don't you have to go to the team training today?"
Li Polo's hands have already climbed to the highest peak of the snow-capped mountain:
"Have you forgotten, baby? I'm still recovering from my injuries!"
Lisanna spat:
"Where are you injured? I can't see it at all..."
She didn't have the chance to continue complaining before she was met with a wave of continuous attacks.
The increasingly strong smell of hormones permeated the entire room.
Li Boluo's mind went blank, and only one message popped up:
【Shots: 19→20! 】
…
Li Polo, whose shooting skills had improved, slowly sat up.
Now, his mind was clearer and calmer than ever before, and he felt that he could see through the entire universe.
So he gently kissed Lisanna's forehead:
"I'm asking you seriously, do you want to be my girlfriend?"
Lisanna opened her eyes, her thick eyelashes fluttering, but a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes:
"?"
Li Boluo stroked her delicate face and smiled self-deprecatingly:
"Two months ago, I was just a supermarket waiter, earning £200 a week on minimum wage. Now I can be called a professional footballer, but it is hard for me to imagine that a weekly salary of £300 can bring us a bright future."
Lisanna smiled faintly and hugged his arm:
"You're such a scumbag."
Li Polo was stunned for a moment:
"I'm talking to you about the future, how come I'm a scumbag?"
Lisanna stretched out her hand and drew a circle on his chest:
"Why didn't you think about this before you walked in yesterday? Now that you're ready to put on your pants and leave, you want to talk to me about the future?"
Li Polo, who was still in sage mode, was speechless, but suddenly screamed:
"ah!"
Lisanna pinched a little cutie with her fingertips and shrugged.
"Don't you think girls in England are very open-minded? Sorry, but my family is very traditional."
Li Polo rubbed his chest which was hurt by her pinching:
"?"
The other party gave him a flying eye:
"You are a man, you have to be responsible... ah! Hate it!"
Li Boluo was a petty person. She had just pinched her chest, and now she immediately retaliated:
"Are you sure you want to date a poor guy who makes 300 yuan a week? You have to know that if we were really together every day, my salary wouldn't even be enough to pay for a room!"
Lisanna trembled slightly, and gritted her teeth to endure his provocation:
"Then...I'll pay for the room!"
Li Polo was so moved that he wanted to cry.
[This is the greatest benefit the system has given me! ]
…
On the afternoon of September 17, Li Polo showed up at the Wimbledon training base on time.
What greeted him was the collective ridicule of several roommates.
"Brother, sure. It's your first time staying out all night!"
The first person to know the situation, McDonnell, blew the whistle first:
"I underestimated you!"
Aziz even joked:
"Would you like to set up a table tonight to celebrate your coming of age?"
Li Polo glared at them and suddenly said:
"Since you are so sincere in wanting to congratulate me, could you lend me some money first?"
Several roommates immediately turned their heads into electric fans and rattles:
"My mother is responsible for all the money in my family!"
"If you can take a dollar out of my pocket, I will wash all your underwear from now on!"
"Brother, I don't have much spare money, so you can use these ultra-thin ones first, just consider it a little gift from me!"
Li Polo looked at the beautifully packaged little things in his hands and stuffed them into his trouser pockets:
"Be a human being!"
…
The three days passed quickly.
Li Polo, who focused his attention on training, finally got the recognition of the coaching team and was once again included in the 18-man roster.
As the opponent Morecambe was mediocre in strength, Barry Fuller, who had played three games in a row, got a rest, and Li Polo returned to the starting lineup after half a month.
On September 20, the 9th round of the league officially kicked off.
Wimbledon, playing at home with all players healthy and in top form, got into the game from the first second. If David Connolly hadn't been half a step slow in offside, they might even have taken the lead in the 21st second!
However, what was to come had to come sooner or later. In the 17th minute, Smith made a diagonal pass in front of the goal from the left. Akinfenwa, with his back to the defender, easily scored with a header, 1:0!
Just 10 minutes later, the home team posed a threat again. This time it was Li Polo who came to the right. He made a two-pass combination with Reeves, crossed the center line, and then decisively kicked a cross!
Akinfenwa, who was standing on the inside of the penalty area, was tightly pulled by two central defenders and it was impossible for him to compete for the landing point, but the players of Morecambe were shocked to find that the target of this cross... was not him at all!
The ball flew over their heads!
Aziz made a high-speed run forward from the far end of the goal and volleyed the ball!
2:0!
Li Polo raised his arms high. This was the first assist in his career!
Reeves, who instigated the attack, hugged him:
"How are you going to thank me? Without my guidance, how could your passing skills improve so quickly?"
Li Polo answered him very generously:
"I still have a few Ultra-Thin 001s left, I'll give them all to you!"
Reeves almost fainted from anger:
"Aren't those gifts from me?"
…
Perhaps because it was too easy to score goals in the first half, the home team obviously relaxed in the second half.
In the 54th minute, Morecambe attacked on the right. Although Li Polo intercepted the ball, he kicked the ball directly to the opponent's forward due to lack of preparation, "indirectly assisting" the opponent to break through his own goal, 2:1.
Li Polo punched the grass in frustration. He stared fiercely at the winger who made him so embarrassed, and swore a poisonous oath in his heart:
"If you dare to come here again, I will never let you go back the same way!"
…
When the game resumed, Lisana in the stands seemed even more nervous than Li Polo on the field.
She was worried that her competitive boyfriend might make an even bigger mistake in his eagerness to achieve success.
Fortunately, everything was under control. In the 73rd minute, the Crazy Gang got a corner kick on the left side. Reeves made a high cross and Li Polo, who was lying in ambush in the crowd, headed the ball into the goal before anyone else!
3:1!
Li Polo, who scored the goal with a pass, stretched out his right hand and pointed to the southernmost stand.
Although the distance was a bit far, Lisanna, who was sitting among the crowd, smiled happier than anyone else.
Morecambe is powerless to turn the tide, Wimbledon wins nine consecutive league games!
