Chapter 89 Paid Leave

"There's definitely something going on on the field, let's wait for the camera to cut to it."

In the video, Yuan Meng is lying on the ground, covering her instep and burying her head in the grass.

Hull City's Robertson looked completely innocent as he explained to the referee.

"I really didn't touch him!"

"He poured it himself!"

"Okay, I admit my pinky touched him."

"But—he faked the fall!"

The referee didn't believe it at all; three Hull City players had just surrounded Yuan Meng, so they must have tackled her.

Look at this young man, number 16, how much pain he's in.

A just ruling: a yellow card!

[Golden Whistle!]

[The referee is capable! 】

[A conspiracy: Leicester City is manipulating the FA!]

Hehe, someone's getting anxious.

Yuan Meng couldn't help but chuckle as he watched the yellow card fall on Robertson, but he buried his face completely in the grass, not daring to be noticed.

Seeing that the team doctor was ready to leave, Yuan Meng quickly stood up, made a substitution gesture, and indicated that she could not continue.

Ranieri nodded and substituted Musa onto the field. Yuan Meng walked off the field with a limp, basking in the applause of the fans.

3-1 is definitely enough.

Yuan Meng asked the team doctor to apply ice to her ankle.

The team doctor asked anxiously, "Where are you injured?"

Yuan Meng casually replied, "I twisted my ankle, it's nothing serious, just to be on the safe side."

The team doctor examined her carefully and found that there was nothing seriously wrong, so he applied ice and bandaged her up as usual.

Click, click!

Local media are very anxious. If Leicester City loses Yuan Meng, it doesn't seem to have much impact, since Leicester City has already got 32 points and has almost secured their place in the league.

-

Oh, that's okay.

"Coach Ranieri, I heard that Yuan played with an injury and immediately signaled for a substitution after falling to the ground in the second half. Is the injury serious?"

The question was asked by a reporter from Sky Sports.

Ranieri's expression was serious: "Yes, it's probably a sprain. He needs to rest and will be unable to play for the time being."

Reporters were in an uproar; their source of traffic had vanished!

"How long exactly will you be out?"

"I don't know the exact time, but it will probably be around two weeks."

95

The reporters were all stunned.

Is this considered a serious injury?

How many games can a player miss in two weeks?

March has a special schedule with only four matches, meaning he'll miss just one Champions League game against Sevilla.

That's the same as not being absent!

"That's good. I hope Yuan recovers soon."

The reporter then praised Ranieri, commending him for his miraculous comeback, leading Leicester City back to eighth place.

Ranieri readily accepted the praise, deserving of it.

Knowing how to call people is an art.

Ranieri spotted Yuan Meng at a glance from the vast list of candidates—that's good judgment!

Moreover, Yuan Meng was only on loan, so it cost almost nothing, making it much more cost-effective than the previous investment of 7700 million euros!

Hopefully, this injury report will give Yuan Meng a sense of belonging, and we'll try to bring him over this summer.

Ranieri's abacus beads were very sharp.

Vardy is a late bloomer, and it's unknown how many more years he will be at his peak. If he can retain a top-tier penetrator, Vardy's career can be extended in a way.

With Mahrez added to the mix, this attacking trident is a force to be reckoned with!

下赛季,是不是能踢4—3—3或者4—2—3—1了。

Ranieri was getting excited just thinking about it!

On a great day off, of course it's time to climb the ranks!

Yuan Meng took the initiative to call Dembele.

"What? Brother Deng, you're going to bed early?"

"Are you having an episode?"

"You're the one who's having a meltdown!" Dembele roared. "The Champions League Round of 16 is about to begin."

"Oh~ I thought you'd taken the wrong medicine," Yuan Meng said with a smile. "Then I won't bother you any longer."

"Boss Luo has recovered from his injury, you can watch the game."

"certainly."

Yuan Meng hung up the phone.

Harden, once I get back to the team I'm going to take your spot, so watch out!

With nothing else to do, Yuan Meng went fishing with Vardy.

His fish tank was full, and he sat to the side, idly scrolling through the news.

Yuan Meng misses out on World Cup qualifiers; China defeats South Korea 1-0!

"Chinese Athletes Strive for Excellence!"

The Chinese national football team is riding high and has begun its northern expedition!

The momentum in the comments section has returned.

If miracles had a color, it would definitely be Chinese red!

[The phobia of Korea is finally over!]

Excellent, excellent!

Yuan Meng was very pleased to see the news. The national football team this year was indeed very impressive, with many players playing with all their might. However, their strength still needs to be improved.

He glanced at Vardy beside him, already deciding what ability he would exchange the stolen skill for.

Vardy's nose for the penalty area!

Yuan Meng is currently a strong winger, specifically used to break through defenses and create scoring opportunities at the edge of the penalty area.

What if one day he needs to play as a weak winger?

That will expose the shortcomings in off-the-ball movement.

After much deliberation, Yuan Meng decided to first master the off-ball movement skill.

He glanced at Vardy's fish box.

Great, more than half a box is full.

I must acquire this skill today, not even Jesus can stop me!

Vardy had been sitting for five hours. He yawned and said, "Yuan, that's enough for today. Let's go back."

"No way!" Yuan Meng pressed down on Vardy's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Jamie, take a good look at your fish tank. It's only a few fish away from overflowing!"

"This is a great achievement, how can you give up halfway?"

Vardy wasn't buying it: "Fishing is just a hobby; football is my main job."

"What's different?" Yuan Mengyi asked sternly.

"If you give up fishing today, you'll give up opportunities to shoot on goal tomorrow. This will make you weak-willed!"

"Truly strong people never give up halfway!"

"Hmm~ that makes sense." Vardy sat down. "Alright, let's fish for another hour."

Yuan Meng was secretly delighted. The "change of concept" technique she learned as a child was still useful; her teacher often used this trick.

For example, his most familiar saying: "If you dare to copy homework today, you'll dare to steal things tomorrow!"

Yuan Meng stared intently at the river, praying silently in her heart.

I don't care what kind of fish you are, as long as you're big enough, hurry up and take the bait!

Goddess Yuan, please bless me so I can successfully acquire the skill.

"It's here!" Vardy suddenly exclaimed excitedly. "It looks like a big one! Yuan, come help me!"

"Here he comes!" Yuan Meng quickly steadied Vardy's shoulders and pressed him onto the small chair to prevent his arms from swaying.

Vardy was focused on fighting the fish.

It has to be said, this fish is quite something; it almost dragged Vardy into the water.

Fish: Today, I have a chance to beat the Premier League Silver Boot winner in a one-on-one battle. I know this is my moment to make a name for myself. Watch me make my move!

"Jamie, what kind of fish is this? It's so strong!" Yuan Meng asked curiously.

Vardy's expression turned serious: "Pike, the strongest predator in this river."

After a full 10 minutes of walking, the pike finally became exhausted.

"Quick, get the net on!"

"Okay!"

Yuan Meng rushed towards the pike with great enthusiasm, and with the power boost, she scooped it up in one go.

Holy crap, it's that big?

That's not a fish!

It's clearly a matter of personal favor!

That's an absolute steal!

Vardy took a ruler and measured it, his eyes lighting up.

A 1.1-meter-long pike with fine, deadly teeth; a rare creature indeed.

A moment later, Yuan Meng heard the notification tone.

[Congratulations, host, for helping Vardy complete the chest-bursting achievement!]

[Reward: Vardy's Favor *2]

[Please select the skill to learn]

After looking for a while, Yuan Meng found the skill that best suited off-the-ball movement.

Use personal connections!

[Learned: Ghost Positioning]

[The essential skill of a killer off the ball: not engaging in preemptive confrontation, not revealing one's intentions, but launching an attack at the most critical moment, appearing in the blind spot of the defense.]

Proficiency: 0 (Minor Mastery)

Yuan Meng was delighted. Since her initial proficiency was at the minor proficiency level, she decided to use another favor to level up.

[Using favors/gifts]

[Ghost Movement]

[Proficiency: 0→100 (Minor Mastery → Major Mastery)]

[Explosive Power: 87→88]

Speed: 82 → 83

[Consciousness: 71→75]

Nice!

This skill can improve awareness, and Yuan Meng is very satisfied.
