Chapter 184 The King of Football's One Step Is Hard to Reach the Stomach; Abramovich Issues a Remote Declaration of Defiance
Long-haired man backstage listened to the cheers from the audience and looked at Zhou Li on the stage with a disdainful expression.

"Oh my, this kid's pretty good at pretending, huh? But the more flamboyant someone is, the faster they'll probably die."

The man standing next to the long-haired man spoke up:

"Manager Gao said that this kid named Zhou Li seems to have some connections, and told us not to mess with him unless necessary."

Longhair smiled.

"I don't care. That Manager Gao is the same. These mainland guys are so roundabout and annoying. As long as he doesn't bother me, that's all I need to do."

The man spoke again:

"But what about Bella? She's really annoying. Judging from everyone's reaction, it seems like they all like her."

An impatient expression appeared on the long-haired man's face.

"That slut disgusts me, but don't worry, she can't possibly be a better commentator than me, can she?"

Longhair's disgust for Bella was from the bottom of his heart.

It's not that longhairs don't like beautiful women, nor that they like men.

It's because Bella, who also comes from Taiwan, knows too much about the longhaired man's past.

Longhair knew that if his past words and deeds were exposed, he would probably not have a good ending.

Although he had already cleaned things up, Bella clearly knew everything.

Having such a person around to work with would make me feel very uncomfortable, regardless of whether the person would cause me trouble.

"Let's see if there's any way to ruin her reputation first..."

On stage, Zhou Li's speech drew thunderous cheers.

This was the time when WE was on its last legs.

Factory Director Curly Hair defected from EDG, and the team's star captain has already retired.

WE's performance in the Spring Split was also not ideal.

Even before WE.A's match began, WE suffered another defeat against OMG, marking their first loss in the first game of the Summer Split.

This left the once-frenzied 60e members feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.

Perhaps, this is how WE will decline and never recover.

But today, WE has a new general!
Most importantly, that declaration to EDG immediately sent the 60e fans into a frenzy.

To the 60e fans, Mingkai and Curly are definitely traitors.

They always dreamed that one day WE would be able to personally kill the traitor.

However, WE is now completely outmatched by EDG.

That day, the image of the factory manager riding a pig and dancing to a smile under the tower undoubtedly became a thorn in the side of the 60e.

But no matter how indignant they were, the fans could only watch helplessly as EDG lifted the Spring Split championship trophy.

In the live stream room, viewers were already spamming the chat with messages.

[Slay the traitor today!]

Looking at the excited audience, Zhou Li couldn't help but sigh.

Just a short time ago, he founded EDG and personally poached the former Clearlove, prematurely ending the WE dynasty.

Now, he is going to represent WE and take down EDG.

Life is truly unpredictable; the large intestine encloses the small intestine.

"Finally, congratulations to WE.A! We wish you even greater success in future competitions!"

As Bella finished speaking, she and Zhou Li walked off the stage together.

She caught up with Zhou Li, who was about to stride away, and said:

"President Zhou, President Zhou, wait a minute."

Zhou Li stopped and frowned as he looked at Bella.

Bella immediately realized what she meant and changed her words:
"Zhou Li, can we chat for a bit?"

She patted her chest, panting heavily, feeling somewhat uneasy.

I almost forgot that Zhou Li told him to treat him like an ordinary contestant in front of outsiders.

Seeing Zhou Li nod, Bella followed him to a secluded corner.

"Mr. Zhou, thank you."

Zhou Li looked at Bella and asked:
"You didn't call me just to say thank you, did you?"

Zhou Li's original intention was simply to let Bella speak her mind and avoid causing misunderstandings in such a public setting. However, Bella interpreted his words differently.

Saying thank you isn't enough?!

Bella looked at Zhou Li with a complicated expression.

He gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind.

"Mr. Zhou, would you like to have dinner together tonight?"

Zhou Li shook his head: "No need, I prefer the food at the club."

Seeing that Zhou Li was about to leave, and even left without any hesitation, Bella was stunned for a moment, wondering if President Zhou had not understood what she meant.
She thought for a moment, then chased after him.

"Mr. Zhou, I can drink alcohol."

Zhou Li paused, looking at Bella with a puzzled expression.

"Did I ask you?"

Bella spoke up again: "I can also have it iced!"

Zhou Li finally stopped. He slowly turned around, stared at Bella, and said, word by word:

"You—you don't think I like you, do you?"

Bella stood there, stunned, watching Zhou Li turn and leave, and instantly felt incredibly wronged.

"So...you're not even willing to have a meal together to build rapport...?"

"So... he only wants to get straight to the stomach?!"

Bella watched Zhou Li's retreating figure with a complex expression, then firmly shook her head.
-
WE.A base.

Zhu Kai was busy preparing a late-night snack in the kitchen when he heard Zhou Li's voice coming from over there.

"Xiao Zhu! Is the midnight snack ready yet?"

Zhu Kai wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied:

"It'll be ready soon, Brother Zhou!"

His brother Zhou had already appeared behind him and sniffed.

"what's for dinner?"

Zhu Kai lifted the lid of the steamer next to him.

"Everyone has been eating more meat lately, so I made some desserts for dinner: three-color red date steamed cake and corn sausage rolls."

Zhou Li stared blankly at the colorful food in the steamer.

"Is your three-colored red date steamed cake and corn sausage roll even proper? Why are the colors so bright?"

Zhu Kai walked over and explained:

"I added a little food coloring, but don't worry, Brother Zhou, it's all within safe limits."

Zhou Li nodded.

"As long as it's not painted with paint, it's fine."

Zhu Kai was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened.

"Brother Zhou, what are you saying? How could it be paint? That stuff is poisonous. I, Xiao Zhu, may have the surname Zhu, but I'm not a real pig. And even if I were a pig, I wouldn't be that stupid. Using paint to make food, even an animal wouldn't do something like that."

Zhou Li was very satisfied with Zhu Kai's words.

Yes, even pigs know that paint is inedible.

Just as Zhou Li was about to take one to try, the little beast rushed over in a hurry.

"Brother Zhou, you're still eating here? It's so noisy outside!"

Zhou Li glanced back at the little beast and saw that although it looked flustered, it had an undisguised smile on its face.

Without Xiaoshou saying a word, Zhou Li knew that it must have been EDG who had responded.

After all, when Factory Director Curly had just left WE, Xiaoshou was the first to criticize them on Weibo.

"What's up?"

"Your post-match interview is now trending on social media."

The little animal's smile grew wider and wider.

“Abu is now throwing a tantrum online, saying he wants to confront you.”
