There are still many days left before the second round of the Brazilian Cup final. The team also gave everyone time off to rest as usual, but everyone consciously chose to stay at the base to strengthen training. No one put forward different opinions

, and I dare not slack off in training.

It won't work if he doesn't work hard. Even some cautious players can only choose to persevere when they see the appearance of others. Otherwise, what awaits him is to be excluded from the team lineup. From this point of view, Hiddink's time

The meeting was still somewhat effective.

On November 17th, the team members conducted normal training and intra-team competitions as usual. It was not until the sunset that they went to take a shower, sweating profusely, and then entered the cafeteria hungry.

Dining. The various Chinese delicacies in the cafeteria have now completely conquered the players' stomachs, so this time of day is what they look forward to most.

Today's dinner is a little different from usual. Not only the dishes are much richer, but there is also an extra small cake for each person. And this is not the most important thing. Li Zhao's family and friends also came to the cafeteria today, and they can

It's really rare to get together like this, but Li Ruolan is the only one missing from the crowd.

"By the way, have you seen your sister Lan?" Li Zhao asked Dolsa. If she was the second person in the club who had a lot of contact with Li Ruolan, besides herself.

"Oh, she seems to be busy with something, so she will come later anyway!" Doleza responded.

Li Zhao did not doubt him. After everyone sat down, the chef in the cafeteria placed a bowl of longevity noodles with eggs in front of Li Zhao.

"Hey, is this an improvement on the food? Or is it some kind of holiday today? But why is there only food in front of me?" Li Zhao asked three times in a row.

But when he turned around and saw the team members smiling at him, he felt something was wrong. However, when he asked, the other team members remained silent.

Immediately, Li Zhao seemed to understand something and said to the chef: "Master Qian, why not give everyone else a bowl!"

"That's not okay. Only you can eat this bowl. No one else has this blessing!" Chef Qian responded with a smile.

"Why is that? If you need my help with anything, just tell me or the manager directly. To be honest, do you think your salary is too low?" Li Zhao also asked with a smile.

"Really not. This bowl was specially made by Manager Li himself and was specially sent to you." Master Qian was also anxious now and finally made everything clear.

"Why don't you come over here! Forget it, since Lan'er made the noodles by herself, I will definitely finish it." Although Li Zhao was always skeptical about Li Ruolan's cooking skills, he would never refuse.

This time I insisted on testing the poison myself, and I was ready to finish it off.

However, after he took the first bite, he relaxed his frown and quickly finished the entire bowl of noodles.

"How's it going, Brother Zhao?" Wang Ziyi asked from the side.

Although Li Zhao didn't say anything about this, the smile on his face said it all.

At this moment, all the lights went out after a sudden flash, and the huge canteen became pitch black.

"Oh, could it be that Gomez was in arrears again, so the power company shut down the power supply?" Master Qian said in surprise.

"Yes, this guy is indeed getting more and more outrageous. Even though we have paid enough rent, he always fails to solve the problem. I have some doubts about whether he did it on purpose." Wang Ziyi also agreed.

road.

Li Zhao could only smile helplessly. Of course, no one could see his facial expression clearly in this situation. In fact, at this moment, he already understood what was going on, but he did not point it out.

You have to match their performance.

Of course, the situation they just mentioned does exist, but there are always various restrictions on renting in other people's places. Perhaps this problem can only be completely solved after they move to a new base.

About half a minute later, a few rays of green fluorescence appeared in a corner of the hall. It seemed that they were several figures, pushing something like a box slowly towards them. In addition, the hall was instantly quiet.

The anomaly also makes this scene seem a bit breathtaking.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhao discovered that the clothes on his teammates began to fluoresce, and then these people also moved, and finally spelled out the four characters "Happy Birthday" in front of him.

Then the box came to him and finally stopped. Only then did Li Zhao clearly see that it was an oversized prototype box that could probably fit a person inside.

Just when he was still wondering, a circle of fireworks suddenly erupted around the box, and then a circle of candles surrounding the box was lit, illuminating everything around him very brightly.

Then the song "Happy Birthday to You" rang out from the speakers in the hall, and the team members around them also sang along. When the song was about to end, a bunny girl dressed in a full suit suddenly jumped out of the prototype box.

The woman in the costume was none other than Li Ruolan, and she was holding a large box of cakes with candles in her hands.

"Happy birthday!" Li Ruolan placed the cake on the table in front of Li Zhao, and then said: "Come and make a wish!"

Li Zhao also smiled slightly and made a silent wish before blowing out the candles. The last step was to cut the cake and distribute it.

"Oh, actually, I guessed it from the beginning. You guys worked so hard to put on a play for me!" It was not until this moment that Li Zhao expressed his true feelings. Such a play was very hard for both parties.

"Oh, who made you so smart? It won't be fun. But you should be pleasantly surprised, right?" Li Ruolan asked again.

"It's indeed a surprise, but I'm also a little frightened." Li Zhao responded with a smile.

"Scared!?" Li Ruolan said with some confusion.

"Yeah, what a birthday party, it made me think it was Halloween!" Li Zhao said with emotion.

"Halloween has just passed not long ago. Some people haven't had enough experience, so I came up with this idea. Fortunately, I basically rejected it." Li Ruolan said and looked at Li Ruolin beside him. No need.

You know, this idea must have come from her.

"By the way, was that bowl of longevity noodles really made by you?" Li Zhao still didn't believe it.

"Of course, you don't have any doubts, do you?" Li Ruolan said.

"No, I'm just surprised that your cooking skills have improved so quickly with my wife, and I seem to have some taste of my mother." Li Zhaodao.

"My talent is still very strong, but I haven't done much research in this area before. Of course, this time I also received the guidance of my aunt for the longevity noodles." Li Ruolan said.

"This is my first birthday after coming to Brazil. I remember last year when I celebrated my birthday in Shanghai, I participated in a friendly football match between Shanghai and Hong Kong with Wang Ziyi and others. Now it's really...

I miss Xu Lao a little bit." Li Zhao suddenly said with emotion.

"Oh, I almost forgot something important!" Li Ruolan said and quickly asked someone to turn on the wall-mounted TV in the cafeteria, and Xu Genbao and his four disciples immediately appeared inside.

After Li Zhao looked around, he realized that the people sitting next to Xu Genbao were not ordinary people. They were Fan Zhiyi, Hao Haidong, Gao Hongbo and Wu Lei. Several people also said blessings to him.

"You have kept us waiting for a long time. Did you play the ball well and become more assertive?" As soon as he finished his blessing, Xu Genbao immediately scolded him.

"I'm sorry, it was my mistake today." Li Ruolan quickly apologized.

"Hahaha, this should be my future sister-in-law! Were you not scared just now? Mr. Xu was just joking with you.

In fact, we just happened to visit the base together, and then he mentioned that today is your birthday, so we all discussed making a video call with you.

Speaking of which, my incompetent son even played ball with you. He admires you very much, so I have wanted to meet you for a long time. You don’t need to be restrained. We are both Mr. Xu’s disciples, so we are pretty senior in terms of seniority.

You don't need to be so particular. If you don't mind, just call me Brother Hao." The person who spoke was Hao Haidong. Although Li Zhao had never met him, he knew about his glorious deeds.

"Well, hello, Brother Hao! Welcome to Brazil if you have the opportunity." Although he felt that calling him this way was a bit advantageous, since it was his request, Li Zhao still complied.

"Brother Hao, Haidong is finally in trouble this time. He calls me Coach Fan now, so now I can be regarded as your elder." Fan Zhiyi discovered something interesting, so he talked to Hao

The two Haidong argued about this. Then, after Xu Genbao's beating, the two listened. And at Xu Genbao's request, Li Zhao downgraded Fan Zhiyi's title to Fan Laoge.

"Li Zhao, it was true that I was reckless about what happened last time. I also understood the actual situation clearly at the time. Don't blame me!" This time it was Gao Hongbo who spoke, and he also apologized for the incident in April this year.

"It's all in the past, and I don't care about it long ago. I hope it won't affect our relationship!" Li Zhaodao.

"Absolutely! Don't be discouraged. Although you won't be able to return to Guozihao in a short time, it doesn't mean that there will be no opportunities in the future!" Gao Hongbo cheered again.

"Li Zhao, our birthdays are very close. My birthday is the day after tomorrow!" Wu Lei said. In comparison, he is truly Li Zhao's contemporaneous person.

"Really? I'm here to wish you a happy birthday in advance. Why don't we get together next year and celebrate your birthday together!" Li Zhao suggested.

"Okay, that's what I thought too." Wu Lei agreed immediately.

"Xiao Zhao, I just have something to discuss with you here. Xiao Gao wants to bring this national brand to your place for training. Calculating the time, it has just ended when your season has just ended, so I will shamelessly do it for you.

I’m asking for your opinion.” Xu Genbao said.

"Okay, you are welcome here at any time. But they must be mentally prepared to abide by my rules. By the way, do we really not need to release the water then?" Li Zhao asked.
