Chapter 69



Su Li is a well-known hot pepper among the gang.

There are no weak girls in the team... Even if they are weak at the beginning, as long as they stay in the team and stick with it, no matter what they look like on the outside, they will gradually become strong on the inside. Even Princess Wang, who has been delicate and timid for more than 20 years, will change, not to mention the girls who have been struggling in the sports team since childhood.

But even in such an environment, Su Li is the one with a hotter temper.

There are many reasons for this. For example, she has been tall since she was a child. When she was in the first grade, she was almost as tall as the third and fourth graders. When she was in the fourth grade, she was almost as tall as an average adult. When she reached junior high school, she was directly the leader of the team.

Being the boss for a long time, he naturally becomes a bit overbearing.

It was also because Zhang Sheng’s popularity and prestige were there, otherwise... well, of course as a freshman, she might not be able to jump up and down, but she would definitely not be as submissive in front of others as she was in front of Zhang Sheng.

This is also one of the reasons why Fan Jiajia always likes to find fault with her. In Fan Jiajia's opinion, as a first-year student, you should respect those in the second and third years. It's not that Su Li looks down on anyone, but she thinks that her skills are not bad and she is stronger, so why should she be the younger one?

This kind of small friction happens in every team. In the early years, Lippi wanted Baggio to be a mole in his locker room, but Baggio did not agree. So the famous Silver Fox banned the melancholy prince.

Well, we have gone off topic.

In short, Su Li is rude, erratic, and silly, but definitely not delicate.

So when her eyes were red at first, no one took it too seriously, thinking that she had a gust of wind in her eyes or didn't get enough rest the night before, until Fan Jiajia joked with her: "Su Li, your eyes are so red, did you cry last night?"

In the past, Su Li would definitely jump up and retort, but this time, although she clenched her teeth, she didn't say anything, and then everyone was stunned.

Fan Jiajia couldn't believe it either: "You, you really cried?"

"No!"

Although she said no, her voice was very stiff, and everyone knew that she was really crying. For a moment, Fan Jiajia didn't know what to say. Zhang Sheng said: "What happened?"

"No!"

She said it again, and Zhang Sheng didn't ask any more questions. Wang Yijing wanted to say something, but Zhang Sheng pulled her and she stopped talking.

Su Li must have encountered something, but she didn't want to talk about it, and we didn't want to force her to ask, so we had to wait until she wanted to talk.

Su Li's idea came quickly because her parents came that afternoon.

In the past, the team would arrive early for training, and then use the morning and evening self-study sessions - if the game was still a long way off, the morning self-study sessions would be used for studying.

But now, they are all going to play in the national competition, and the roster not only takes up the morning and evening self-study sessions, but also the third class in the afternoon.

So, when Su Li's parents came, they all saw Su Li's parents.

They were practicing 5-on-5 cooperation at the time.

Five people organize the offense, five people organize the defense, and see which side is stronger.

While practicing, they saw a man and a woman walking in from outside. Su Li stopped immediately. Fan Jiajia was in the same group with her and was about to get angry, but when she thought that something was wrong with her today, she suppressed her temper: "What's wrong with you?"

Su Li didn't say anything. When Fan Jiajia was about to ask again, Su Li rushed over like a cannonball: "What are you doing here! What are you doing here!"

She screamed in a shrill voice and everyone stopped practicing. Just as they were wondering, they saw the man slap Su Li in the face.

Coach Ni couldn't stay still any longer. No one could stay still any longer either. They all ran over. Once they got there, they realized that the couple was Su Li's parents.

"Coach...ah...teacher..." The man who had just hit Su Li had an honest look on his face. He rubbed his hands back and forth, as if he was very embarrassed. "I am the child's father, and this is her mother. I am sorry to have embarrassed you, sorry to have embarrassed you."

Coach Ni had some guesses when he came over, so he was not surprised at this time. She has always been respectful but not warm to students' parents, and now she is even colder. She immediately asked, "What do you want?"

"Um, are you Coach Ni?"

Coach Ni nodded.

"Hello, Coach Ni." The man stretched out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Coach Ni, but seeing that she had no intention of doing so, he withdrew his hand awkwardly, "Well, I have something to tell you, you see..."

Coach Ni hesitated for a moment and was about to agree when Su Li said, "No! No, no, no! I made it to the national competition! Our team made it to the national competition! What does it have to do with the men's team? What does it have to do with Su Sheng? No..."

Before she could say anything else, her father was about to hit her again, but this time Coach Ni stopped him before he could.

"Teacher, please don't worry about it. This kid deserves a beating! How can you talk to an adult like that?"

He was about to go and smoke, but Coach Ni pulled him back steadily: "I have no control over how you educate your child at home, but here she is my student."

Father Su was startled and slowly withdrew his hand: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. We spoiled this child so much that he has become lawless since he was young. That..."

"Let's talk somewhere else." Coach Ni said. Su Li wanted to say something, but Zhang Sheng pulled her back.

"Take a ten-minute break and continue the training you just did. Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Coach Ni gave some instructions and took the Su couple to his office. As soon as they left, Su Li stomped her feet in hatred.

Everyone was speechless for a moment, and finally Wang Yijing spoke in confusion: "Then Su Li, isn't your brother the captain of the men's team? Doesn't he... have a quota himself?"

“…He didn’t perform very well this time.”

"ah?"

"It may not be his turn." Su Li's body trembled a little when she said this. "It's his business if he doesn't perform well! It's his business! It's not me who made him perform poorly, but he said it was me, saying that I put pressure on him!"

At this point, Su Li couldn't help choking up again.

Angry, aggrieved, and absolutely sad.

She usually plays and fights with her brother, but aren't all the kids in their yard like this? Although her parents often said that she didn't act like a girl, she didn't take it too seriously - this was probably the sentence she heard the most since she was a child.

She came from a very ordinary family. Her parents sold breakfast, not the kind that could open a chain store, but just a stall near the community selling porridge and buns. Business is average because there are too many breakfast shops and their porridge and buns are nothing special, but at least they can make a living.

Selling breakfast is hard work. Her parents have to get up at four o'clock in the morning to make various preparations. So she and her brother are the kind of people who have been without parental care since childhood. This is not uncommon, as this is basically the case for all the children in their yard.

So naturally, her and her brother's grades were just as bad as those of other children in the yard.

Fortunately, although her parents are not tall and strong, they and their siblings have some genetic mutations. Not to mention her, her brother is also tall and has long legs. When he reached a certain age, he was noticed by the physical education teacher.

They didn't have any other special skills, and no future prospects, so they just practiced physical education as the teacher asked them to. As they practiced, they actually became quite good at it, and both the brother and sister were admitted to Tiezhong!

Tiezhong is not a good high school, but in their courtyard, not many people can go to high school. Su Li still remembers that when she was confirmed to be admitted by Tiezhong, her father specially called out several times in the courtyard, and her mother told everyone she met that the girl in our family, who was crazy, was also specially admitted by Tiezhong!

She didn't like being called a crazy girl, but she was happy that day.

At that time, I also thought that when I got to Tiezhong, I would do something big!

——She had never lost to anyone in sports since she was a child, but when she heard that there was a girl who could kick out a crescent-shaped scimitar, she felt that Tiezhong was not simple.

That's indeed the case. When she first came, she wasn't even a main player!

This is normal, as it is normal for a freshman not to be able to become a main player. But she felt a little disappointed, but she couldn't say anything because others were indeed better at skills than her.

But she stood out in the end thanks to her physical condition, and then she moved from one victory to the next.

During this process, her brother criticized her a lot, but she didn't care. First, her brother said this a lot, and second, she had never suffered any loss!

If Su Sheng dares to talk nonsense in front of her, she will fight back!

Can’t get through? I will fight you even if I kill you!

She had always had this temper since she was a child. Her brother had no way of dealing with her, and her parents could only nag about it, until this incident happened...

For others, the failure of the men's team to enter the national competition was at most a sigh of regret, but she was really sad. After all, Su Sheng was her brother. She had previously imagined what it would be like for them to enter the national competition together, but in the end they did not. So she has been a little cautious at home these past two days and no longer talks about the team or the capital.

Then just yesterday, she returned home and saw her parents.

Because they have to get up early, her parents also go to bed early at night. In the past, when she didn't practice extra, she could still run into her parents, but now, after practicing a little extra for a while, she mostly doesn't see them. I saw her parents packing things for the stall the next day.

But this time, her parents were not chopping vegetables, washing rice, or making dough. Instead, they just sat on the chairs and asked her to sit over when they saw her.

Then her parents told her about her brother's situation.

Normally, Su Sheng would have a spot, but his performance in the provincial competition this time was really average. As a striker, he only had two assists and no goals.

Of course, football is not all about statistics, but when competing for a spot, it makes a difference whether you have statistics or not.

Moreover, they only made it to the semi-finals, and there were not many spots available, and the schools had to share them, so it was not easy to say whether it would be Su Sheng's turn - they asked Coach Jiang about it, but Coach Jiang was also ambiguous.

Coach Jiang is always nagging to his students, and he is even weaker in front of the school leaders. Coach Ni can make half of the decisions on the women's team's quota, and Coach Jiang also has a say in the men's team, but the school has a bigger say - of course, the team members must have it, but which team member has it... well, this requires specific problems and specific analysis.

The vast majority of Chinese people have always had a question: in such a big country, can’t we find eleven people who can play football?

What? No environment? What was the environment like during the Republic of China period? What's the situation with tennis? What is the environment for ice and snow sports? ——The latter also has very strict standards for the region!

Even though we are not the best in these sports, we have achieved decent results. Why is it that when it comes to football, we always fail? And it’s getting worse?

There is a very interesting point here - tactics.

Individual projects are the simplest. No matter how well you speak, if Zhang San runs faster than Li Si, then he is faster; if Li Si cannot beat Zhang San, then he cannot beat him.

Clear and understandable at a glance.

It’s different in football. Zhang San runs faster and has better skills, but he doesn’t fit the system…

Football is about tactics!

This player has no goals, no defense, no assists, and is not tall or strong... but he is an indispensable member of the tactics! Without him, this tactic would not succeed!

If Su Sheng had more statistics and was the captain - he had been on the roster last year, the Tiezhong leaders would not have eliminated him if they had any shame. But he didn't do that this time!

The Su couple are already so old, they know what to do at this point, but they are reluctant and a little unwilling to give up, so they think of Su Li!

Su Sheng’s data is not enough, but Su Li’s is definitely enough. They have entered the national competition, how could it be not enough? Then wouldn't it be fine to give her place to Su Sheng?

Su Li was struck by lightning when she heard what her parents said. Although she had always been strong, she didn't know how to respond when she heard this. She just froze there.

Since she didn't say anything, her parents thought she agreed. As for the fact that she didn't show much joy - the child was ignorant and always acted crazy, so of course she didn't understand the significance of this matter.

And that night, Su Li couldn't sleep.

She always felt that she was her parents' precious child, even though her parents often said that she was not like a girl and were a little partial to her brother - yes, she knew that her parents were more partial to her brother, which was why she felt a little gloating when she knew that Wang Yijing defeated her brother, but she felt that this partiality was limited and nothing serious, just like other people in the yard, boys were given houses and wives, and girls were given a little dowry and that was it.

This is the environment around her, and although she feels unwilling, she can accept it.

But she didn't expect that she would have to give her place to her brother!

Why is this happening? Why is this happening? Isn’t she also her parents’ child? She didn't behave any worse than her brother.
