Chapter 133 Go on This Date

After the training, the Dortmund players returned to the locker room and took the time to shower and change clothes. There was a big temperature difference between inside and outside, so be careful of catching a cold.

Mark said to Zhou Yi: "Hi, Zhou Yi, are you also spending Christmas Eve at our house this year?"

In previous years, whenever he had the opportunity, Zhou Yi would spend Christmas with Mark's family, because Mark's home was the first place he stayed in Dortmund, and he had a deep relationship with them. The kind-hearted Mark parents made such a decision in order to alleviate Zhou Yi's homesickness of being a stranger in a foreign land.

But this time, Zhou Yi's answer surprised Mark: "Not this time, Mark."

"Huh?" Mark was surprised. "What's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Well, I made an appointment with someone on Christmas Eve and we want to have dinner together."

As soon as he heard that Zhou Yi had made an appointment to have dinner with someone on Christmas Eve, Mark became more energetic and came up to ask: "Who is it? Male or female? Is she pretty?"

Zhou Yi rolled his eyes: "Female classmates in middle school in China, stop guessing."

But Mark chuckled: "Okay, I won't disturb you anymore, let you live in the world of two people!"

"What! It's normal for classmates to have a meal together." Zhou Yi said.

"I didn't say it was abnormal, right?" Mark smiled and walked away.

In the German Cup quarter-finals, Dortmund faced Hannover 96 at home. As the crown champion of the German Cup, how far Dortmund can go in this season's German Cup depends entirely on whether they value this championship.

Having already won one championship, and with fierce competition in both the domestic league and the Champions League, it is difficult to say that they will choose to fight all the way to the end in the German Cup.

However, it is still early to make a decision. Dortmund, who adopted a rotating lineup, defeated Hannover 96 5:1 at home. They led by three goals in the first half. There was no suspense about the victory of this game.

Dortmund used such a hearty victory to give Dortmund fans the best gift for Christmas.

Zhou Yi also scored a goal and an assist in the game and performed very well.

After the German Cup match,

The team did not take a holiday immediately. Klopp also specially arranged two days of recovery training for the team, using two days to let the players' tired bodies get some rest before letting them go out to play.

Before the holiday, he also warned all the players that the competition in the second half of the season will be very fierce, so he hopes that everyone must maintain good physical fitness during the holiday and not overeat or have disordered work and rest. If he is allowed to watch After the winter break, if the weight has increased significantly, these people will not only lose their position in the team, but also face punitive heavy exercise training.

※※※

The two days of recovery training ended quickly, the team was officially disbanded, and everyone went their separate ways.

Zhou Yi was not in a hurry to leave, he still had an appointment.

On the 24th, Zhou Yi took a late nap and woke up after ten o'clock. After washing up, he didn't eat breakfast and started packing his luggage directly.

Tomorrow, the evening of the 25th, he will fly back to China with Yang Muge, and he will pack some of the luggage he will bring tomorrow in advance. Mainly the things he brought to his family. He didn't have many things of his own. He didn't even bring a change of clothes - he was going home, not on vacation. There were plenty of things like a change of clothes at home, so of course he didn't need to bring them.

After packing his things, he opened the door and walked out of his room, and found Cortana preparing lunch. He looked at her in surprise.

"What's that look in your eyes, like you've seen a ghost?" Cortana rolled her eyes at Zhou Yi after seeing him.

When Zhou Yi heard this, he rubbed his eyes cooperatively: "I really thought I saw a ghost."

"You won't have any lunch." Cortana said coldly.

"No, no, no, no..." Zhou Yi quickly begged for mercy. "I'm just wondering why you don't go home to celebrate the holiday with your family. Today is a very important day in the West, right?"

"I'll go back tonight."

After eating lunch together, Zhou Yi helped Cortana put the tableware into the dishwasher. Then both of them went back to their rooms to rest.

Cortana wanted to take a nap, while Zhou Yi turned on the TV and game console and started playing video games.

Sitting on the train from Heidelberg to Dortmund, Zheng Lulu leaned her head slightly against the window. The window glass was cold, but Zheng Lulu didn't care.

She is looking forward to this trip to Dortmund.

After four years in Germany, I finally had the courage to contact Zhou Yi and meet with him for the first time.

Zhou Yi agreed very readily. Although today was Christmas Eve, there were not many people on the train. The previous broadcast also reported that the train should arrive in Dortmund on time, so she still had time to tidy up in the hotel room.

Everything went smoothly, so smoothly that she felt like she was hallucinating. There must be something bad waiting for her next, right?

Zheng Lulu blushed when she thought that before going out, her roommate Catherine would give her a few condoms, saying that she would try to have sex with her directly tonight.

In the end, she didn't ask for those condoms. Although she felt that she had changed a lot in the past four years, she still couldn't become so open and bold.

Speaking of changes... I wonder if Zhou Yi will recognize him when he sees him?

Zheng Lulu wanted to laugh when she thought of this.

While he was enjoying playing games at home, there was a knock on the door. Zhou Yi threw down the controller and ran to open the door, only to find that it was Cortana standing in front of him.

"What?" he asked strangely.

"Are you still playing games?" Cortana tilted her head and saw the game controller Zhou Yi threw on the bed.

"Yes. What's wrong?" Zhou Yi was confused.

"Aren't you going to prepare?"

"what to prepare?"

"Are you planning to dress like this to meet a girl?" Cortana pointed at the down jacket Zhou Yi threw on the bed. It was a very ordinary style and a little bloated.

"What's the problem... Wait, how did you know I was going to see a girl?" Zhou Yi was very surprised.

"Mark was very excited at home that day and said that your spring is coming." Cortana raised her eyebrows.

"Mark is such a big mouth!" Zhou Yi said angrily. .

"Mark is just happy that his best friend is finally in love," Cortana said.

"Where are you?" Zhou Yi rolled his eyes. "It's just my high school classmate. I haven't seen her for several years. I didn't expect that she is also in Germany." He explained to Cortana. "You have to dress up to meet a classmate?"

"Of course." Cortana nodded. "Even if you meet an ordinary girl, you can't be so casual. This is out of respect for people. Change that bloated down jacket... You'd better take a shower before going out and blow dry your hair..."

Zhou Yi was stunned when he heard this: "You don't need to go to such trouble, right? It's just a meal! I usually don't do my hair during competitions."

He is telling the truth. Some players are very strict with their hair and cannot mess up their hair on the court, so they wear a lot of hairspray. But Zhou Yi doesn't. His hair is a little long and a little curly, but he doesn't care about it and lets it scatter on the top of his head.

He plays football without relying on his hairstyle.

Cortana shrugged: "I'm just making a suggestion. It's up to you whether to listen or not."

After saying that, she turned and returned to her room.

Zhou Yi stood alone at the door of the room, turned to look at the closed door next door, and felt a little confused - I met my female classmate, why was she so worried? !

But in the end Zhou Yi took a shower and changed his clothes. At least he didn't look too casual.

When he was done with all this, he left the restaurant's address and contact number with Zheng Lulu on his mobile phone QQ, and then went out.

When he was leaving, Cortana was also planning to go home.

Cortana looked Zhou Yi up and down, then waved her hand: "Goodbye, handsome boy."

Zhou Yi curled his lips. He felt that Cortana was weird today, but he couldn't explain why.

Zheng Lulu had just checked into the hotel she had booked. She took a shower immediately and spent the rest of the time doing hair and makeup.

Finally, she looked at the smiling girl in the mirror, grinning slightly, revealing her white teeth, with no trace of braces on them.

The ugly duckling who was once laughed at and ignored has now grown into a graceful and beautiful girl.

The best makeup, the best clothes, the best image, the best condition... go to this date with your best self.

After looking at herself in the mirror, Zheng Lulu took out her phone and saw the restaurant information Zhou Yi had sent her.

Then she put on her bag and stepped out of the hotel room door with her boots on. (To be continued.)
