Chapter 166 Something Happened

The Wolves have lost two back-to-back away games, and fell out of the top eight again. They will have two days of rest, and there will be another away game two days later.

Xia Kexin called Lu Ziqiu and asked, "Should we go back or go directly to the away game?" This was not necessary to ask, but she saw that Lu Wei was frowning all day, so she hoped that Lu Ziqiu would let them go back, so that everyone can adjust it. Secondly, I hope he can give Lu Wei some advice.

"Come back when you're done."

"Well, by the way, have you watched these two games?" Although he was disappointed, he did not force himself.

"Looked."

"Is there anything you want to tell Lu Wei?"

Lu Ziqiu pondered for a while, and said with pain: "There is nothing to say. At the same time, you also tell Coach George and them that they can communicate with Lu Wei, but don't influence any of his decisions. The next game will depend entirely on him."

Xia Kexin responded with a wry smile after hearing this.

Lu Ziqiu heard her tone was wrong, sighed and asked, "Is Lu Wei under a lot of pressure?"

"Well, not only is he under a lot of pressure, but everyone's emotions are also low."

"You can enlighten Lu Wei more, tell him not to put too much pressure on himself, just let go and do it."

Xia Kexin agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Diana asked, "Do you really think Lu Wei is suitable to be a coach?"

"Of course." Lu Ziqiu firmly believed in this point.

"But I saw that he was timid when directing the game, and his tactics were very rigid. Is this really possible?"

"If you want to grow, you need to pay a price. No one can go smoothly. All we can do is trust him."

Diana understood what he meant, but after a moment of hesitation, she couldn't help persuading her: "Why don't you give Lu Wei a call."

Lu Ziqiu shook his head, "I told you before that Lu Wei's personality is different from mine, and my things are not suitable for him."

"But the experience is always the same, right?"

Lu Ziqiu couldn't help laughing, "Wouldn't it be possible for him to learn more experience by letting him explore by himself?"

Diana was completely speechless, "Just pretend I didn't say anything." After saying that, she turned and walked back to her desk.

She didn't even look up after this, apparently in protest.

One day without incident, get off work and go home safely.

Time flies, two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the third match was going on as scheduled.

Because their opponents were inferior, Lu Ziqiu and the others didn't bother to watch the live broadcast. Unexpectedly, news came that they still lost the match. Not only did they lose, but both Lu Wei and Lin Sen were injured.

Lu Ziqiu frowned, "Are they seriously injured?"

"Lu Wei just accidentally bumped into it. It's a minor injury and it's not a serious problem. But for his consideration, we didn't let him play again. As for Lin Sen, he sprained his ankle and may have to rest for a week." The other end of the phone Xia Kexin was very depressed.

The two players who mainly controlled the rhythm were injured shortly after the start, and the loss of the game was inevitable.

After listening to her explanation, Lu Ziqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there is nothing serious, "It's fine, if you lose the game, you lose, it doesn't matter."

Unexpectedly, Xia Kexin suddenly said, "Lan Feng and Han Bin were kicked out of the game at that time, and they might face suspension."

"what happened?"

"Both Lu Wei and Lin Sen were injured because of James, but the referees only called ordinary fouls. Han Bin was so angry that he scolded the referee and was sent off directly, while Lan Feng was sent off for intentionally hurting someone." .”

"James?" If Xia Kexin hadn't mentioned it, Lu Ziqiu would have almost forgotten the existence of this person, "Is that the James we used to trade Han Bin back then?"

"It's him. He moves a lot and is also very bad. Lin Sen sprained his ankle because he stepped on his jumper, and Lu Wei was injured by him when he broke through."

Lu Ziqiu took a deep breath, "I see, I'll talk about it when you come back." When encountering such a thing, Lu Ziqiu was helpless even though he was angry.

Not long after the phone was hung up, it rang again suddenly.

Lu Ziqiu saw that it was an unfamiliar number again. He was in a bad mood now, so he hung up and didn't answer.

But within a minute, it rang again.

Lu Ziqiu frowned and connected, and a strange voice came from the other end, "Is it Lu Ziqiu?"

"you are?"

"You don't have to worry about who I am. I called you to tell you that the children in your orphanage are very cute."

"What do you want to do?" Lu Ziqiu's heart skipped a beat, his face sank uncomfortably, and his voice became cold.

"It's very simple. If you don't want them to have an accident, you'd better come here tomorrow in person. Also, I hope you don't call the police, otherwise you will know the consequences."

"I warn you, you'd better not mess around."

The man sneered, and hung up the phone without bothering to answer.

"Bastard!" Lu Ziqiu couldn't hold back anymore and cursed.

Diana and Lin Xi, who were coming back from outside, were taken aback and hurried over to ask him what happened.

Lu Ziqiu took a deep breath, "Diana, book me an air ticket for tomorrow morning right now, I'm going back to Los Angeles."

"What's the matter?" Diana had never seen him look so sad.

"Don't ask so many questions, hurry up and book a ticket." Hua Luo patted the shoulders of the two of them lightly, "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be right back."

After leaving the villa, Lu Ziqiu immediately called Wesen.

"Why so late?" Weisen's lazy voice sounded.

Lu Ziqiu said in a deep voice, "Something may have happened to the orphanage."

"What?" Wesen's expression changed suddenly, and he asked coldly, "What's going on?"

"I don't know. Someone called me just now, threatening the children in the orphanage and asking me to go back tomorrow."

"Looking for death." Wesen was suddenly furious, and angrily swept away the wine glass on the table.

"Don't mess around, first find out the situation in the orphanage."

"Needless to say, I'll rush over to have a look first, you wait for my news." That's the place where he grew up, everyone in it is his family, how can he sit still?

"Be careful, I'll be there early tomorrow morning, and we'll make plans after we meet up."

"Well, call me." Hua Luo hung up the phone directly, ran out in a hurry, and rushed to the orphanage overnight.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ziqiu was afraid that Lin Qian and the others would be worried, so he went outside for a while, adjusted his mood, and thought of an excuse before going back.

Sure enough, after returning, the two of them pulled him to ask questions, and it took Lu Ziqiu a lot of effort to fool them over.

Lu Ziqiu hurriedly changed the topic before the two of them found out, "Diana, have you booked a flight ticket for me?"

"It's booked. The earliest flight is tomorrow morning. I'll send you the flight information later."

"Okay, go to bed early, and take me to the airport tomorrow."

"En." Diana responded, turned and walked back upstairs. Lu Ziqiu was leaving tomorrow, so she wanted to give the two of them more private space.
