037 Homecoming (Part 2)
In the evening, at Zhang Le's house, Sun Xiang and his little one gathered together.
"Sun Xiang, are you still used to living in Germany? Our Zhang Le always clamored to go to Germany to see you!"
Zhang Le's mother came over with a plate of prawns.
"Don't listen to my mother's nonsense. It doesn't matter if you die or not." Zhang Le teased.
"I'm OK in Germany, but you haven't been living a mess!"
Sun Xiang knows Zhang Le very well, but he doesn’t know whether he learns or not.
"What do you mean? Just look down on me! Let me tell you, I am in the Guoan echelon of Beijing now!"
Zhang Le patted his chest and said proudly.
"What? Are you in the Guoan Echelon? You're so stupid."
"Didn't I give you WeChat? You won't not read it again!"
“…….”
Not to mention, Sun Xiang didn't really see anything except chatting with Wang Jing for a while at noon.
As he said that, Sun Xiang took out his cell phone and saw that it was true that Zhang Le gave himself a photo of him training in a national security training suit, and there was also a post from Qiushi Middle School Campus Network.
"After Sun Xiang of our school, two more students have further improved from their careers."
"Last month our school played against Beijing Guoan u17. Although we lost in the end, Qin Wei and I performed well and were attracted by it." Zhang Le and Sun Xiang recalled.
In that game, captain Qin Wei scored a goal. Although Zhang Le did not score or assist, his excellent performance on the defensive end and his skills were still recognized. Now that Beijing Guoan's right-back is scarce, his chances come with it.
Sun Xiang was also happy for him, and his childhood close friend has now successfully entered the door of his career.

After dinner, Sun Xiang and Zhang Le went out to Nanluoguxiang.
This old alley full of the atmosphere of the times has always been a good place for Beijing.
"How are you and the one named Wang Jing? You two have a public relationship when you read the news."
"That's actually just to confuse the audience."
The two of them chatted while walking.
"I think so, you two don't seem to be having sex."
"Why?"
"She is so beautiful, how could she fall in love with you as an ugly pussy!"
"Don't force me to throw you into the river..."
The two of them walked to Houhai without realizing it. Houhai at night was even more lively than during the day. Neon lights flashed before the various bars, and the leaping melody made it still lively in the cold winter.
In fact, in the past, there was another person who had a good relationship with Sun Xiang. The three of them always came to Houhai to play together.
But later the man went abroad with his parents, as if he was Portugal, and there was no news again.
"You said, how is Mamunda doing there?"
Pulling on the fence in Houhai, Zhang Le raised his head to look at the sky.
You can see starlight through the haze.
"He, who knows? There has been no news for four years."
Leaning against the stone railing and watching the crowds coming and going on the street, I couldn't help but return to the past in a trance...
In the past, there were not so many cars on this street, and there were no people until 4 or 5 pm. At that time, the three of them were playing football here, and there was a small empty field by the back beach, which was their home court. There were many three-player games.
Like now, Sun Xiang plays as a midfielder, Zhang Le plays as a defender, and Ma Mengda, who goes to the Iberian Peninsula, plays as a striker.
At that time, the Houhai was sparkling under the sunset, and the court by the Houhai was extremely lively. A few children played in groups and played in the game, which was the happiest time of the day.
It was also from then on that time that Sun Xiang loved football more and more, and other sports were all passing by.
But good times are always short. The year when Sun Xiang and the other three entered the same junior high school together, Ma Mengda went abroad with her parents.
After the close friend left, the former "Three Musketeers of Houhai" no longer existed.
As for how he is doing now, no one can know.
"I want to go to the previous 'home court' to see it." For some reason, Sun Xiang suddenly said this.
Zhang Le was stunned at first, then stood up, "What can you see so late?"
Although he said that, Zhang Le and Sun Xiang walked towards the open space, and he wanted to see it himself.
Bypassing a small courtyard and passing through half an alley, they came to the "home court" that was previously fought with the sunset.
This is a small open space next to Wanghai Tower, and Houhai is next to it.
There are few street lights nearby, and the smog is coming, making visibility even lower.
"Look, I'll just say, what can I see when I'm so late?" Zhang Le turned on the flashlight in his phone and walked up on his own.
Sun Xiang also learned to turn on the flashlight.
Every inch of land here is a place where I fought before, and I still know where there are pits and stumps here.
"Sun Xiang, have you seen that tree? Why haven't you cut it down yet?" Zhang Le shook the towering pine tree with light and asked Sun Xiang with a smile.
If you want to talk about this, it has a lot of connection with Sun Xiang.
When I was a child, Sun Xiang had to play football together. He basically had to be angry at this tree every week. He either ran and hit the tree, or passed the ball or shot the ball and was hit by the tree.
Anyway, I will definitely be hurt by this tree once.
Later, Sun Xiang, who could no longer bear it, swore that he would cut off the tree, and kicked it up angrily, but was hit on the head by the pine nut in the book.
"Okay, stop talking, I don't want to mention the past."
For Sun Xiang, that experience was the one he most reluctant to mention, which was too embarrassing.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
After returning from Houhai, he said goodbye to Zhang Le, Sun Xiang walked slowly back to his home.
"I'm back!"
Just like before, Sun Xiang still said the words back.
"Are you back? Go and take a shower quickly. Your dad should take a shower!" Sun Xiang's mother reminded.
"I understand, I'll go back to the house and take off my clothes first!"
Back in the room, Sun Xiang saw Wang Jing sending him a WeChat message.
"I've packed up my luggage and waited for the taxi to come and pick me up. Don't forget to pick me up at noon tomorrow!"
"Hey, remember."
After sending the news, Sun Xiang read the sports news again. After his father came out, Sun Xiang changed into his pajamas and went to take a shower.
After taking a shower and drinking a cup of hot milk, Sun Xiang went to bed early. He had not yet reversed the jet lag, so he almost fell asleep after taking a nap. So he went to bed early to prevent him from getting up the next day, because he had to take another 2 hours to get away.
Chapter completed!
