Chapter 291 Warmth
At Chelsea's internal training ground, Wang Li easily defeated the team's temporary coach, Japanese coach Saburo Ono, with a single kick.
This incident stunned everyone present. It was the first time for them to see Wang Li truly demonstrate his Chinese Kung Fu. They all gave him a thumbs up and thought to themselves, no wonder this black-haired boy dared to say that Japanese judo was not up to par, it turned out that he was a master of free fighting.
A few days after this incident, all the staff in the club looked at Wang Li differently. This black-haired boy was not only a goal king on the field and a superstar of Chelsea, but now he was also called the successor of Chinese Kung Fu. It was really admirable that so many titles were given to a 17-and-a-half-year-old young man.
This made many club staff members admire Wang Li a little bit. Originally, they did not chase stars because they had been in contact with card-playing stars for a long time. But now they have changed their minds because this black-haired boy is so outstanding. As a result, when Wang Li was training in the club, he was taken care of meticulously. Even one of the stadium cleaners occasionally ran over to grab John's job and scrambled to help Wang Li place the football.
In the eyes of his Chelsea teammates, the dark-haired boy who trained with them was increasingly shrouded in a mysterious aura.
Especially Frank Lampard, Joe Cole and others, they found that they really didn't know much about Wang Li. They trained and chatted with him every day, but only a few of them knew that Wang Li's Chinese Kung Fu was so powerful. This even made them feel a little ashamed.
However, Thomas curled his lips in disdain. According to him, "I told you a long time ago, but you just didn't believe it." In fact, it was true. They had heard Thomas say that Wang Li's Chinese Kung Fu was very powerful before, but seeing is believing. Without actually seeing how powerful it was, they didn't believe it.
And now, they believe it.
Even though I have never fought with that Japanese guy, I can imagine that someone who can win a silver medal in judo at the Olympics is definitely not someone that ordinary people can deal with.
In short, Wang Li's image suddenly became taller in Chelsea Club. The mysterious Chinese Kung Fu always brings people endless imagination. Frank Lampard's imagination is the strongest. He has already imagined the next time he plays against Manchester United or Arsenal. They are upset about losing to Chelsea, so they use fists and feet to solve the problem when they can't win on the field. In the end, they are knocked to the ground by the black-haired boy in a 1vs11 situation with just three punches and two kicks.
It was truly a real-life Jack Ma movie.
And Frank Lampard also felt that even if Jack Ben himself came, he would not be a match for Wang Li.
Although this incident happened at Chelsea's internal training ground and there were no fans or media nearby to see it, this did not prevent various versions of the rumor from spreading. There are many people and many mouths. Even if Mr. Saburo Ono would never tell his own scandal, some Chelsea players or club staff still leaked the news.
So the next day, the headline on page three of The Guardian was full of irony towards Wang Li: "Violence, this is real violence"
"...According to a Chelsea player who wishes to remain anonymous, during the normal training session yesterday, Chelsea's young player Alan Wang had a conflict with a Japanese coach at the club's training ground. In the end, Alan Wang used the fighting skills he had learned since childhood to knock the coach to the ground with a heavy punch."
After improperly explaining "what happened", The Guardian continued their dismantling behavior, saying that Wang Li was an advocate of violence in Premier League football, when many players on the field had already suffered from it, such as Manchester United's Dutch center forward Van Nistelrooy, who is still recuperating in the hospital and it is unknown when he will be able to return to the green field.
At the end of the article, the reporter concluded: "... This is real violence. Even the team coach clashed with him. We can imagine how horrifying the violence in this player's blood is. Many fans think that such a player should be banned permanently. We are against stadium violence and should also eliminate all possible factors... So, how will Chelsea deal with this problem?"
In addition to The Guardian, other newspapers and magazines also mentioned this incident briefly, with voices of support, opposition, neutrality, and so on. But in contrast to The Guardian, The Fulham Post completely portrayed Wang Li as a hero. They felt that this was a heroic act that was not afraid of powerful forces.
"Hero defending traditional honor" was the headline of the Fulham Post the next day.
"…It is regrettable that Chelsea insulted each other during training. Although the Japanese was a judo runner-up and well-known in London, Allen was not afraid. In order to defend the Chinese Kung Fu he had learned, he was fearless. He is really an amazing hero."
"Fortunately, the 35-year-old Japanese player's true level is obviously much worse than when he was young. We are very happy to see that Alan is not injured. In the next round of games, he will still bring us goals and victory. This is a real dance master, a football player who scares all opponents, both on and off the field."
Of course, for the Blues fans, no matter how the incident happened and what the process was, the most important thing is that Wang Li was not injured. As for his personality, whether he is violent or not, it has nothing to do with the fans. After all, geniuses are arrogant and unrestrained. Which superstar didn't have his own personality when he was young?
In short, in these reports, the evaluation of this matter is divided into three camps: support, opposition and neutral. But despite this, in general, the media coverage was not hot, and the news only lasted for two days.
After the incident, the head coach Mr. José Mourinho had a private talk with him and told him not to talk about this incident in front of the media. The sentence that touched Wang Li the most was "You are a football player, not a free-fighting champion or a movie star." Wang Li felt that Mourinho was right. He had not yet reached the top of his football career and now should focus on training.
Therefore, when being interviewed, Wang Li avoided talking about this matter at all. He only talked about the next game. This is also the reason why the media did not report this matter enthusiastically. Both parties kept silent, and their waving of flags and shouting were obviously useless.
Under such circumstances, the incident can only be left unresolved.
After learning from the media that Wang Li was the successor of Chinese Kung Fu, many fans felt that the dance master was shrouded in a mysterious aura, but this did not affect their admiration for Wang Li. The more mysterious he was, the more interest he could arouse. So after that, Wang Li's popularity increased instead of decreased, and his No. 21 jersey sold even better. Many people who admired Chinese Kung Fu also bought one to keep as a collection.

Time passed by unknowingly, and soon another European battle was about to begin at Stamford Bridge.
On the eve of the third focus battle of Group H of the UEFA Champions League, major newspapers and magazines also turned their attention from other reports and began to pay attention to Chelsea's next Champions League group match, at home against Porto.
Porto, the most successful club in Europe last season
The triple crown title makes them extremely dazzling
It is truly amazing that a team from the Portuguese A League can win the European Championship. Some people even compare it with this year's Greek mythology because they both happened in the same year.
This season, although Porto sold many players from last season's championship lineup, allowing Chelsea to get a good meal and greatly supplementing the team's defensive lineup, Porto is still the defending champion of the UEFA Champions League. This game held at Stamford Bridge can still attract the attention of most people in Europe, although most people do not think that Porto has a chance to shake Chelsea's position as the first in the group.
All this is only because of the champion coach and Jose Mourinho and his disciples in Porto
In addition to Chelsea head coach Jose Mourinho, Ricardo Carvalho and Paulo Ferreira, who have performed outstandingly this season, are all players Chelsea introduced from Porto in the summer. They have found their own positions in Chelsea's defense in the new season. This game will also be their first game against their old club.
This alone is enough to make people take this game seriously, and Chelsea's crazy performance this season has also made the major European giants alert. There is only one St. Bledsoe Cup (Big Ear Cup), but all clubs want to get it, so Chelsea has become a huge threat that they cannot take seriously.
For this game, many media predicted that Ricardo Carvalho, who had just returned from injury, would most likely start in the game, while Paulo Ferreira would most likely be directly placed on the bench because he has not yet established himself as a starter in Chelsea.
This game is also very important for Chelsea. As long as they can win the game, Chelsea will be in first place in the group. In this way, qualifying for the group will be guaranteed, and there will be no pressure in the future Champions League, which will also be very helpful for their games in the league.
This game is also Jose Mourinho's first game against his old club. For this Portuguese champion coach, he can only win and not lose.

………
Wang Li has been distressed in recent days. It is not because of any problems he has encountered in the club, nor because of the recent negative media reports about him, but because Princess Angela is about to return to the United States.
Angela certainly has her own life. She also needs to apply to a university in the United States. It is impossible for her to be endlessly entangled with Wang Li every day. Moreover, her father's company in the United States also needs someone to take care of it. Because of his status, it is difficult for Earl Edward to take the initiative to participate in the company's affairs, and he only has Angela as a daughter.
For the sake of their future, Angela decided to give up her current life and return to the United States to pursue her own life.
However, this made Wang Li not happy at all.
Every morning he holds a sleeping beauty in his arms, and every night someone is waiting for him at home. Wang Li has become accustomed to this warm life, and thinking about living alone in the future makes him very distressed.
Of course, Wang Li would definitely not stop Angela's choice for the sake of his own life.
Everyone has his or her own life, and before two people get married, they should be independent. Wang Li, who has lived in Europe for more than a year, has fully accepted this idea of equality.
As for getting married now?
What a joke! They will definitely become the laughing stock of the whole of Europe.
In the eyes of Europeans, sex is open, but marriage is a sacred thing. It is absolutely irrational for two young people under the age of 18 to enter into marriage. Even Ellis, who is looking forward to Wang Li's marriage, would be opposed to it.
Wang Li is not ready for this now. Perhaps, he has the ability to give the best material treatment to his family and children, but life is not just about material things. A happy family and the healthy growth of children cannot be maintained by material things alone.
Moreover, Angela is still so young, maybe she really likes herself, but does she fully understand herself? Wang Li can say for sure that she does not understand.
So is this really love?
Besides, Wang Li knew that he had had thoughts about other women. He was not ready to get married at all. Moreover, he was not sure if he could take care of himself, let alone a family.
Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved. There was no real love between the two of them. They were just attracted to each other and had a liking for each other. Perhaps time would prove everything. If they were separated for a few years and still had the same feelings for each other, then maybe that would prove that this was real love.
………
"Annie, I'm back." In the evening, Wang Li returned to his residence.
Angela was still watching TV on the sofa. She turned and smiled at Wang Li, then walked into the room, took out some clothes and handed them to him. She covered her nose and frowned, saying, "Hurry up and change your clothes and take a shower. You smell like sweat."
"Yeah." Wang Li smiled and said softly.
This is a scene that happens almost every day.
But after hearing Angela talk about her plan to return to the United States yesterday, Wang Li couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and happiness.
Habits become natural, and we will cherish them only when we lose them.
But now, the time for the two to live together has entered the countdown.
At night, Wang Li lay on his bed and gently embraced Angela's body. He did nothing but embraced her gently, enjoying the softness and delicacy in his arms lazily. He opened his eyes and looked at the beauty in his arms, and said, "Annie, do you like living with me?"
Angela moved in Wang Li's arms, found the most comfortable position, turned her head to look at him and said, "Of course, I hope it will always be like this."
"Then why do you want to go to America?"
Angela turned around, put her right arm around the waist of the man next to her, and drew circles on his chest with her left hand. After thinking for a while, she said, "Alan, I have my own life too. My father's company will go bankrupt if I don't take care of it."
"..." Wang Li said nothing and continued looking at her.
"Don't you agree?" Angela raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "We have been together for quite a while, and I will come back often in the future."
Wang Li thought about it, sighed, and said, "I understand, but I just hope you stay by my side forever."
"Hehe..." Angela chuckled, then raised her hand to Wang Li's head, asked him to look into her eyes, and said, "After I leave, you are not allowed to flirt with other women. I will keep an eye on you in the United States."
"Definitely not," Wang Li said without hesitation, "I only like you. You know, besides you, football is the only thing left in my life."
"Really?" Angela lowered her head slightly and said, "I think your female agent seems to be interested in you. Women's sixth sense is always very accurate."
"Impossible," Wang Li's heart tightened and he said directly.
Angela chuckled and said, "Alan, you are very handsome, but that's not the point. I really like your seriousness and hard work on the court. You know I was just your fan at the beginning."
"Fans?" Seeing Angela change the subject, Wang Li sighed inwardly and said, "Then, after the game with Arsenal that day, why did you insist on being my girlfriend?"
"Nothing, it's just that I've never had a boyfriend before, I just want to try that feeling, and you leave a good impression in my mind."
"What about now?" Wang Li suddenly felt a little nervous, as if he was afraid of losing something.
"Since I came here, I have fallen in love with this kind of life, Alan. You are so charming, and I feel like you are a mystery that can never be solved. I try to understand you and even send people to investigate you, but I always feel that you are still elusive."
"Charming?" Wang Li muttered, "How can you describe a man like this?"
"You're just charming. You see, a lot of women like you very much, even though you don't care about them at all, like those female fans next to the stadium who cheer for you at every game." Angela sounded a little resentful when she said this.
"Are you jealous?" Wang Li replied with some pride in his heart.
"That's it. I feel like I still don't know you very well until now, and I want to calm down for a while, so when my father asked me to go to the United States, I agreed."
"It's not bad to go to university. I also hope to study." Wang Li said against his will. In fact, what he hated most was studying.
"But I'm afraid you'll start to cheat on other people. Maybe after a while, when I come back, you'll belong to someone else." As she spoke, Angela even had a tear rolling down her cheeks.
Looking at this lovely girl who looked reluctant, Wang Li's heart seemed to be touched by something. He stroked Angela's long hair and said, "Don't worry, Annie, no matter what time, my heart will stay with you."
Hearing the boy in front of her say such touching words, Angela immediately burst into laughter and said, "Me too."
That night, they did nothing but hugged each other, feeling each other's warmth and enjoying the warmth.
Perhaps, for both of them, separating for a while is the best choice.
