Chapter 161: Let me lend you my wife for fun [Second update with vomiting blood, begging for monthly ticket subscription! ]
In the afternoon, a black car was driving at high speed from west to east on the viaduct in downtown Porto.
Sitting in the back seat of the car were Su Wenjie and his wife, who had just arrived in Europe from China, and sitting in the front passenger seat was Ma Dawei, a reporter for the China News Agency stationed in the Iberian Peninsula.
The three of them arrived in Frankfurt, Germany yesterday. After staying in the hotel booked by Mendes for one night, they flew directly to Porto today, just to watch the Portuguese Super League championship battle in the afternoon.
Like all leagues, the final round of the Portuguese Super League will start in the afternoon.
Time was tight. After flying from Frankfurt to Porto, Mendes had already arranged for a driver to wait at the airport. After picking up the person, he drove non-stop across the entire Porto city and arrived at the Dragon Stadium in the east.
Turn south from the overpass and you will soon enter the Fire Dragon Stadium.
After getting off the viaduct, drive directly to the parking lot.
Unlike most stadiums in Europe that have dedicated open-air parking lots, the Dragon Stadium is located in the city of Porto. The surrounding land is extremely expensive and it is difficult to free up such a large parking lot. Even the underground parking lot inside the stadium only has 2,300 parking spaces. On match days, it is often difficult to park a car.
Mendes had already made plans for this.
The driver drove the car directly to the internal parking area, and after being questioned, the administrator quickly let him go.
"We are going to the away fans' area in a moment. We have to walk for a while and take a look around the interior of the Fire Dragon Stadium." said the driver.
Ma Dawei relayed the message to Su Wenjie and his wife. It was their first time to come to the Fire Dragon Stadium. They were full of curiosity and novelty about this five-star stadium that would soon host the European Cup, especially Su Wenjie.
After parking the car, the driver led the three people along the inner passage to the stands where the away fans were.
Like all home teams, Porto also arranged Sporting Lisbon's away fans in the most remote corner and strictly controlled the number of people. It is said that only less than two thousand people were allowed in.
Otherwise, with the number of Sporting Lisbon fans and the special nature of today's game, they would account for at least half of the fans, which also makes the tickets for the Dragon Stadium very tight today.
The driver was very familiar with the Dragon Stadium because Porto's administrative offices are located here.
Along the way, he kept introducing the facilities of the stadium to Ma Dawei and others, such as which passage led to the players' locker room, which one led to the restaurant, and the door in the distance led directly to the stadium's Hall of Fame and the fan shop...
Su Wenjie and his wife followed closely all the way.
They couldn't understand what the driver was saying and could only rely on Ma Dawei's translation, but they were very nervous.
They were about to see their son, but they felt even more nervous.
Two years have passed. I wonder what Su Dong looks like now?
How is he preparing for this afternoon's game? Will his parents' sudden arrival make him nervous and stressed?
All these thoughts made Su Wenji and his wife very worried and unable to feel at ease.
"Uncle, aunt, don't be nervous. Didn't Su Dong just call? He sounds very happy to see you." Ma Dawei could see the mood of Su Wenjie and his wife, and he was actually a little nervous too.
Su Wenji sighed deeply, "I'm just worried that he'll be too happy and it'll affect the game."
"Don't worry, as professional players, they all have their own ways to adjust their mood." Ma Dawei could only comfort them.
"This kid has been steady since he was young. When he first started training, he never compromised. He played football with kids a few years older than him all day long without saying a word. Gradually, he stood out among the group."
When mother Yang Xiuyu talked about her son's past history, she was immersed in beautiful memories and showed a look of pride.
"Who says it's not true?" Su Wenji also sighed, "Looking back now, I was indeed too careless. I sent him to Europe when he was only sixteen years old. The child has been here for two years and has never complained to his family. He only reports good news and never bad news."
Along the way, Ma Dawei heard a lot about Su Dong's past from Su Wenjie and his wife. These would become important materials for his next series of reports, but at this moment, his responsibility was to comfort the couple.
"Uncle, aunt, just as you said, if you come to watch the game, Su Dong will only be happy and will not be affected."
Su Wenjie and his wife looked at each other and nodded, but they still had doubts in their hearts.
…
Walking out of the inner passage and arriving at the stadium stands gives one a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
The stands of the Dragon Stadium are very spectacular, and the fans of Sporting Lisbon are arranged in the most remote corner of the second-floor stands.
This is almost the practice of all European teams in treating away fans.
But even if you sit in the most remote corner, you can still clearly feel the grandeur and magnificence of this stadium.
Tonight, there are more than 50,000 people in this stadium! The momentum created by so many people gathered together is so terrifying! Su Wenji and his wife, who were watching a game in Europe for the first time, were extremely excited.
This is very different from domestic stadiums. There is no athletic track separating the stadium and the stands. This not only gives fans in the stands a better view and makes them closer to the stadium, but also gives them a feeling of overlooking the entire stadium.
They hurried all the way and finally arrived before the game started.
"The players of both teams will be coming out soon." Ma Dawei translated while listening to the live broadcast.
Su Wenjie and his wife suddenly became nervous and clenched their fists.
Soon, there was a burst of crazy cheers at the scene, and the players of the two teams were seen walking out of the stadium one after another under the leadership of the referee. Porto wore their home jerseys, and Sporting Lisbon wore their iconic green jerseys. One had blue and white vertical stripes, and the other had green and white horizontal stripes, which was quite clear.
"Albertini!" Su Wenjie excitedly pointed at a Sporting Lisbon fan and said to his wife.
Originally, Yang Xiuyu didn't know much about football, but in the past two years, because of Su Dong, she came into contact with many Sporting Lisbon players, and actually recognized most of the Green Lions, mainly some of Su Dong's friends.
"Andre Cruz!"
"Xiuyu, see? That's Peipei, Xiaodong's good friend. He's really strong!"
"And that one, Cristiano Ronaldo, aka Ronnie, he's a bit skinny!"
"Quaresma is the teammate who is very good at dribbling that Xiaodong mentioned on the phone."
Su Wenjie knows all the players of Sporting Lisbon by heart, and every time he introduces a player, he always remembers to mention his son.
When the last players of both teams walked out of the player tunnel, Su Wenji and his wife stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in front of them. Wasn't it their beloved son whom they had been thinking about for two years? "Xiaodong?" Yang Xiuyu almost shed tears, "Wenji, is that Xiaodong?"
"Yeah, No. 36, it's him, it's him!" Su Wenji's eyes also turned red.
"He has grown so tall." Yang Xiuyu's voice was choked with sobs, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Su Wen Ji also nodded continuously, unable to speak, for fear that he would cry if he spoke.
For two years, they missed their baby son every day, but now that they saw him, they felt he was a stranger to them.
In their memory, Su Dong was not so tall and strong.
Su Dong in the stadium was obviously looking for them and looking towards the area where they were.
"He saw us!" Su Wen Ji became excited.
The couple quickly stood up from their seats and waved towards Su Dong vigorously.
The scene was crowded and noisy, with people and arms everywhere. They were afraid that Su Dong would not be able to find him.
Su Dong in the stadium waved at them vigorously, which made the couple in the stands very happy.
"He saw it! He saw us!" Su Wenjie and his wife hugged each other and couldn't stop crying.
This was the first time they had seen their son in two years! …
In fact, Su Dong did not find his parents.
He knew roughly which area he was sitting in, but it was a small area with thousands of people, so it was difficult for him to find it. But he still waved because he knew that his parents in the stands would definitely see him.
"Are your parents sitting over there?" Ronnie asked with concern.
Su Dong nodded, "It should have arrived."
When I called just now, they were already in the car en route, and they should have arrived by now.
"I'll help you score a goal tonight!" Ronnie suggested with a smile.
"What do you want to do?"
"How about getting Ferreira?"
Su Dong was happy, "Isn't she your wife?"
"I don't mind lending it to you for fun." Ronnie smiled seriously.
"Ferreira said, I mind it very much." Su Dong laughed.
The two teams have set up their positions and the game is about to begin.
Su Dong stood in the center circle, ready to serve at any time.
There was a bit of silence at the scene and the noise became much quieter. It was obvious that the fans were brewing the next wave.
But at this moment, a clear shout suddenly came from the stands.
"Come on, Xiaodong!"
The voice was in Chinese and was very familiar. Su Dong knew it was his father as soon as he heard it.
He turned his head again and looked in the direction of the stands where his father was, raised his right hand high and clenched his fist tightly.
"Your dad?" Ronnie asked from the opposite side.
"Well, it should be."
"That was quite brave, the crowd was full of Porto fans, and he shouted like that..."
Su Dong was also happy. He didn't expect that his usually honest father would have such a brave side.
As expected, although Porto fans basically could not understand Chinese, they could still hear the word "Dong". Among the players on the scene, only one named Su Dong had a similar pronunciation, and it came from the area where Sporting Lisbon fans were, so there was no need to say more about the answer.
As a result, Porto fans started booing even more violently, completely drowning out the voices of Sporting Lisbon fans.
There were even Porto fans who held up signs demanding that Sudon get out of the Dragon Stadium, apparently hoping to affect the morale of Sporting Lisbon players.
Su Dong in the center circle just felt warm in his heart.
My father, who is usually an honest man, has already given it his all. As a son, I can't embarrass him, right?
I beg you to subscribe to the monthly ticket! ! !
