Chapter 186 Dinner
This rewarding dinner is the first time that the board of directors of the Wolves wants to integrate with the team, so they attach great importance to it. Not only all family members of the board of directors participate, but even the family and friends of the players are required to bring them along.

At the same time, Xia Hongfei personally invited officials from the local Sports Bureau and the Basketball Association to the banquet, but these leaders just showed their faces and left with various excuses. None were forced to stay.

The atmosphere of the banquet was warmer. As soon as Lu Ziqiu came, he was pulled over by the board of directors to greet him. The family members of the board of directors were also very friendly, but Bai Yufei kept his face sullen, and Lu Ziqiu pretended not to see her. Kung Fu is too lazy to do it.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Xia Hongfei asked: "Ziqiu, with the current situation going on, what number do you expect the team's best results to be?"

Lu Ziqiu is really unwilling to answer such a question. After all, this is a competitive game. As long as it is a sports competition, there will be various contingencies, such as player injuries, team state fluctuations, etc. These are unpredictable.

But including Xia Hongfei, other shareholders are also waiting with burning eyes. Judging from this situation, it is obviously impossible to perfunctory the past.

So he hesitated for a while before saying: "If everything goes well, there is no problem in entering the playoffs, but it is hard to say how many places we can rank." The reason why he is so confident is because the next The schedule is relatively favorable.

Xia Hongfei and the others were not very satisfied with his answer, but they could barely accept it.

Instead, Bai Yufei interrupted suddenly, "It seems that you are quite confident."

Lu Ziqiu looked up at her and didn't bother to answer.

If Bai Yufei's tone hadn't been so sour, he wouldn't have ignored it so much.

Xia Hongfei frowned, but did not speak.

In order to ease the embarrassment, other shareholders hurriedly changed the topic.

Bai Yufei kept watching with cold eyes. With her around, Lu Ziqiu felt that he was not feeling well, so he left with the excuse of feeling unwell.

The shareholders were all taken aback. The banquet dishes haven't been served yet, so he's leaving now?Now that he's gone, how can this dinner go on?They want to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with the players.

So, how could they let Lu Ziqiu just leave?
Lin Qian quietly pinched his leg under the table, and blamed him for his ignorance with her eyes.

Lu Ziqiu is not good at communication, but she is very good at it, and she knows that if she leaves like this, the board of directors will definitely have a grudge, and the relationship is not very harmonious in the first place. Expand.

So after stopping Lu Ziqiu, he picked up the wine glass to toast. The expressions of the shareholders eased a lot, and they picked up the wine glass to clink with her.

As soon as the wine was drunk, the atmosphere at the table became much more harmonious.

Shareholders stopped worrying about the team's problems and began to speak freely. Some people even praised Lin Qian not only for being beautiful and capable, but also for understanding the general situation, saying that Lu Ziqiu was really lucky to find a girlfriend like her, and so on.

With such a compliment, Lu Ziqiu felt a lot better, so he completely disregarded Bai Yufei and started talking freely with them.

After that, the shareholders began to toast with the team members.

The players were still in control at first, but seeing that Lu Ziqiu didn't control them, they gradually let go of drinking, especially Luo Peng, the little prince of the nightclub, who couldn't stop drinking once he started drinking.

Han Bin was robbed of the limelight by him in the arena today, and now he is robbed of the limelight at the wine table. With his competitive character, how could he not confront him?
The two of them had a fight for wine, and Lin Sen also jumped out to join in. After him, Lan Feng and Lu Qian also joined the battle group.

Luo Mang wanted to join, but Yang Xiaojing stared at him and stopped him, "They must be going to the nightclub again after drinking, do you want to go too?"

"Where is it? I never went with them." Luo Mang was speechless. Since he was with Yang Xiaojing, he is now really honest, and all kinds of gossips that surrounded him in the past have gradually moved away from him.

"I don't care. I'll move in to live with you tomorrow. I won't worry if I don't look at you."

Luo Mang nodded bitterly in his heart. Once she came, it would be difficult to have an independent private space in the future.

The other players were also aroused to be competitive, and joined the battle group one after another, and the shareholders who were confident in their drinking capacity also joined in later, and the whole dinner party suddenly turned into a drinking competition.

Xia Kexin was a little worried, so she ran over to Lu Ziqiu and asked, "Do you want to control them? We have a match the day after tomorrow."

It was fine if she didn't go over, but Bai Yufei's face immediately darkened once she passed, but due to the crowd, she didn't say anything.

Lu Ziqiu shook his head, "I don't care about them, you don't let them drink now, they will still go to the nightclub later, but you have to tell the coaching staff, try to watch them when you leave, and don't let them make trouble."

Xia Kexin nodded and went back, Lu Ziqiu didn't stay any longer, and said goodbye again.

Now that the goal has been achieved, the shareholders did not insist on keeping him.

Once they left, Diana and Li Minghui naturally had no reason to stay.

When the four of them left the banquet hall, Diana couldn't help snorting: "If I had known that woman would be here, I wouldn't have come. It's so annoying."

Li Minghui didn't understand, so he looked at Lu Ziqiu suspiciously. Lu Ziqiu shook his head without explaining, but just patted Diana on the shoulder, "Are you all full?"

Li Minghui shook his head bitterly, he hadn't moved his chopsticks much yet.

Lin Qian pursed her lips and smiled, "Let's go back and cook something to eat." She hardly ate either.

Diana originally wanted to go out to eat, but considering Lu Ziqiu's situation, she reluctantly nodded and agreed.

After returning, Lin Qian and Diana went to cook supper, and Lu Ziqiu pulled Li Minghui to sit down in the living room, "When are you and Diana going to get married?"

Li Minghui pushed his heavy glasses, and replied bitterly: "She said she would wait for you to win the championship before getting married, and she also said that she would hold a wedding with you at that time." If Lu Ziqiu didn't mention this, he was also thinking of finding someone Opportunity to discuss this matter with Lu Ziqiu.

"do you mind?"

"Of course I don't mind, and I'm also very happy to have a wedding with you, but my family and her family disagree, saying that we will be given a year at most."

One year, that's trouble.

With Diana's personality, since she said so, she will definitely do so, it seems that I have to find a time to talk to her.

"I will go back and find a time to talk to her. With the current situation of the Wolves, I am not sure that I will win the championship next season, unless the team can continue to be strengthened in the off-season."

"Thank you, Brother Lu." Li Minghui finally felt relieved. Diana listened to him so much, so it shouldn't be a big problem for him to come forward.
