"Ugh... my head hurts so much..."
Li Shiguang opened his eyes in a daze and immediately pressed his hand to his temples and gently rubbed them.
After relieving himself for a while, Li Shiguang managed to sit up from the bed.
Before he could even get up, Shakira appeared in the doorway, smiling gently at Li Shiguang, "Awake? Want some warm milk?"
Two or three minutes later.
After washing up, Li Shiguang and Shakira were already sitting at the dining table.
As soon as he sat down, Shakira started joking with Li Shiguang: "It's been a long time since I've seen you drink so much. You drank more last night than when we first met in Madrid."
“It’s all Diego’s fault,” Li Shiguang replied helplessly. “If he hadn’t been holding me back, I would have run away long ago.”
"Haha, that won't do." Shakira tilted her head and looked at the man in front of her. "You're the team's owner and head coach. Leeds United can't do without you at a time like winning the Premier League title!"
After finishing the milk in his glass in one gulp, Li Shiguang wiped his mouth clean and asked, "Do you want to come with me to the parade this afternoon?"
"Is it okay?" Shakira asked excitedly.
She was a football fan herself, and after meeting Lee Shiguang, she became a loyal Leeds United fan. Shakira naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to participate in the Premier League title parade.
“Of course.” Li Shiguang nodded. “But before we get to Elland Road, we have to give up the rooftop space to the guys on the team, especially Zlatan, who loves to show off!”

After lunch.
Li Shiguang and Shakira arrived at Thorpe Arch training ground on time, and the players also arrived at the ground one after another.
Today's championship parade route starts from Thorpe Arch and ends at the square in front of Elland Road Stadium. Allen had already communicated with the Leeds City Council about the parade arrangements last week.
So Li Shiguang and his team didn't need to prepare anything special; they just needed to bring the trophy and their smiles and accept the cheers of countless Leeds United fans.
However, a small incident occurred before the march could begin.
Today, the entire English media is reporting extensively on Leeds United's comeback victory, and the vengeful Simeone specifically bought the Manchester Evening News this morning, hoping to find an article written by Charles Walters, or more precisely, an article in which he apologized to Li Shiguang!
This Manchester United fan even made a bet with Li Shiguang in public.
If Leeds United win the title, he will have to apologize to Li Shiguang for 30 consecutive days in the Manchester Evening News, the newspaper he works for!
Frankly speaking, given Li Shiguang's current level and mindset, he has long lost interest in arguing with a mere reporter.
But Simone has it!
Before setting off, while Li Shiguang was chatting with Shakira in his office, Simone knocked on Li Shiguang's office door with a copy of the Manchester Evening News.
"Boss!" Simone gave Shakira a brief greeting before walking over and handing the newspaper to Li Shiguang. "That Charles, the reporter who always questions us in the newspaper, do you remember him?"
"Uh... I remember, it was the Manchester Evening News? What's wrong?" Li Shiguang only briefly recalled the reporter who not only made a bet with him but also tripped up Leeds United in Maicon's transfer.
Simone pointed to the newspaper in Li Shiguang's hand: "Look, this is today's Manchester Evening News. I didn't see his apology article."
I picked up the newspaper and looked at it; sure enough, there was no article in it—the apology that Charles had promised to give me.
“I almost forgot about this if you hadn’t mentioned it.” Li Shiguang handed the newspaper back to Simone, looking at his sullen face. “Well then, I remember Allen kept a video of that press conference. Go find him and have him confront this guy. That will give you some satisfaction, hahaha.”
Simone took the newspaper, his tone still a little worried: "What if this person denies it?"
"They won't admit it? The video recording is right there. If they won't admit it, let Allen deal with it. Sue him or send a letter to his newspaper demanding an apology! Just ruin his reputation!"
Li Shiguang waved his hand dismissively: "Didn't I tell you before? In competitive sports, being bad is the original sin! As long as we can win the championship, we can handle these reporters and such, right?"
"Haha!" Simone's mood instantly improved upon hearing Li Shiguang's words. "Alright, I'll go find Allen right away. This Charles, I'm going to teach him a lesson this time!"
····
Around 3 o'clock.
Everything is ready.
Li Shiguang then led the players onto the parade bus that Allen had pre-arranged.
As mentioned before, during the bus ride towards Elland Road Stadium, Li Shiguang and Shakira stayed on the second floor with the air conditioning on, leaving the top floor, where the seats had been removed, to the players.
Even though you can often hear fans chanting "Lee! Lee! Lee!" from both sides of the road.
Li Shiguang also did not make an appearance.
As the owner of Leeds United.
He knew that at this moment, he had to give up some insignificant opportunities to show off to his players, which would help strengthen team cohesion!
It wasn't until the bus arrived at the plaza in front of Elland Road that Li Shiguang got off, accepted the Premier League title trophy from Kompany, and walked onto the temporary stage set up in the plaza.
