Chapter 157 Can Wei Lai Play in the Premier League? (Fifth Update)

Beep! Beep! Beep!
With a sharp whistle, the game came to an end.

In the tenth round of the Chinese Super League, Shanghai Tengfei lost 1-2 to Jiaozhou Wely.

Jiaozhou Wely secured three points and remains in the lead of the standings.

"Ha~ha~ha~ha."

Wei Lai was panting heavily; this was the most tiring match he had ever played.

It wasn't just his confrontation with Ronaldinho; the entire match was full of surprises.

However, the result was still good!
They secured their tenth victory and remain at the top of the standings.

"Hey!"

Wei Lai had just gotten up when he heard someone calling his name.

Turning his head, he saw Ronaldinho standing behind him.

"Do you speak English?" Ronaldinho asked.

Wei Lai nodded in response.

"You played brilliantly!"

Ronaldinho took off his jersey and handed it over.

Wei Lai was stunned for a moment, then quickly took off his jersey and handed it to the other person.

Ronaldinho draped his jersey over his shoulders and laughed, "Very few people here can keep up with my pace, you're an exception!"

Wei Lai: "I've tried my best, but it's only been to distract you."

Ronaldinho was both amused and exasperated. "Of course! You still want to steal the ball? Dude, you already have one interception and one assist this game. Very impressive stats!"

"Your interference is very British; it makes me feel like I'm back in the Premier League!"

Wei Lai grinned: "Thank you for the compliment."

Ronini: "I'm telling the truth. We'll get our revenge in the next round!"

Wei Lai smiled; "Qizhou is not so easy to conquer!"

"Just you wait!" Ronini shrugged with a smile, then turned and left.

Wei Lai was also wearing Ronaldinho's jersey as he walked towards the locker room.

"Wei Lai! Wei Lai!"

Liu Wei rushed over in a flurry, pointed at him, and said, "Go take a shower right now!"

"what?"

Wei Lai asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Attending the post-match press conference? Brother Zhang will take you to the interview!"

Wei Lai's eyes widened: "Me?"

"You haven't had any training! Don't worry! Just go, Brother Zhang will cover for you!"

"All right!"

Wei Lai immediately went into the bathroom, quickly washed his body, changed into a set of dry clothes, and then followed Liu Wei through a series of turns to an open space.

He walked around to the front of the stage from the side, the moment he stepped onto the stage.

Good heavens, that almost blinded him!

Click! Click! Click! Click!
The entire venue was filled with flashes and the sound of camera shutters.

"Wei Lai! Come here!"

Wei Lai squinted and looked over; Zhang Zhenting was waving at him.

There was a seat next to Zhang Zhenting, and Wei Lai plopped down on it.

When he turned his head, he saw that the head coach of Shanghai Tengfei, Ronaldinho, was also in the interview area.

Ronini winked at Wei Lai and smiled.

Wei Lai responded with a smile.

"In this match, Jiaozhou Weili defeated Shanghai Tengfei 2-1. How do the two coaches view the course of this match?"

The two coaches gave brief responses to the match.

But they were mostly just formulaic responses.

The coach of Shanghai Tengfei is a bit resentful, after all, they lost the game and he must be feeling bad.

Wei Lai sat quietly to the side, and when no one asked him anything, he didn't say anything either.

After a moment, a reporter raised his hand and said:

"I'm a reporter from *Shanghai Sports*. I'd like to ask Wei Lai, in this match, you had several confrontations with Ronaldinho. How did you maintain your defensive position while connecting with the team?"

Wei Lai blinked and turned to look at Zhang Zhenting.

Zhang Zhenting nodded, signaling Wei Lai to answer.

Wei Lai leaned forward slightly, towards the microphone.

"crooked?"

The room fell silent for a moment, then the reporters burst into good-natured laughter.

"Ahem!" Wei Lai coughed lightly and said slowly, "Rognini is an outstanding athlete. I approached this match with a learning mindset. I don't think I did particularly well; the gap is still very obvious, both in terms of physique and technique." Wei Lai turned to look at Zhang Zhenting, who nodded in agreement.

Wei Lai continued, "I'm still young, so I need to learn a lot from my seniors. As for defense and teamwork, my teammates have been helping me a lot. Thank you!"

Wei Lai straightened up and slowly exhaled.

Zhang Zhenting nodded in satisfaction.

A staff member was translating beside Ronaldinho's ear when, after a moment, Ronaldinho raised his hand and said:

"What I want to say is that I did encounter some trouble in this game, yes! During the game, because of Wei's active running and interference, I was not able to perform as well. Also, what I just said was Wei's humble expression. In fact, he really did hinder my performance to some extent."

"I think his current ability, even in the Premier League, would barely reach a passing grade!"

After saying this, Ronini stood up and said, "That concludes my interview!"

Wei Lai opened his mouth wide, looking utterly astonished.

"Dude, what did you say?"

After he got up, he winked at Wei Lai and mouthed a gesture.

'Good luck!'

The media erupted instantly!

"Wei Lai! Wei Lai!"

"Is what Ronaldinho said true?"

"Wei Lai, can you answer the question from earlier directly?"

"Wei Lai, do you have the ability to get opportunities in the Premier League?"
"Wei Lai, are you going to the English Premier League?"

Have any Premier League clubs contacted you?

Which club do you want to go to?

Wei Lai stared blankly ahead, completely stunned.

Zhang Zhenting couldn't help but sigh and pulled Wei up.

That concludes today's interview!

The reporters followed relentlessly, but Zhang Zhenting had already pulled Wei Lai into the locker room.

"revenge!"

"Naked revenge!"

Wei Lai felt a wave of fear wash over him; "That microphone was almost shoved into my mouth!"

"Rognini had a mischievous nickname in the Premier League, and he's definitely capable of doing something like this!"

Wang Hao looked at Wei Lai with a smile; "Believe it or not, after the news spreads tomorrow, the fans will already be looking for Premier League teams for you!"

Wei Lai grinned; "Aren't we going to deny it?"

"How do you explain?" Wang Hao shrugged. "Just pretend you're mute! Anyway, the World Cup is coming up, and this suspension will give you some peace and quiet."

"All right!"

The Chinese Super League matches were suspended on May 30th, which was the tenth round.

We'll start again in July after the World Cup ends.

There was a holiday of more than a month during this period.

Of course, not all of the time can be spent resting.

For example, Jiaozhou Willie will go on vacation starting June 10th and return to training on July 1st.

All told, it's only a 20-day holiday!

Wei Lai will have to dedicate ten days of his 20-day holiday to training with the national youth team.

That means he only has ten days of vacation!

January 5th, 31pm.

Qizhou Airport.

Wei Lai stood at the exit, waiting for a long time.

A short while later, a handsome young man with a ponytail, dragging a large suitcase, wearing black sunglasses, and swinging his ponytail, came out.

"Old He!"

Wei Lai immediately waved.

He Chaoyue took off her sunglasses and waved gently.

"I already told you, you don't need to come pick me up!"

"Now that you've come to Qizhou, this is my territory, so I have to show you hospitality, don't I?"

He Chaoyue touched her stomach; "You want to show me hospitality?"

Wei Lai nodded: "That's right!"

"go!"

He Chaoyue waved her hand.
