Chapter 408 Ning Xi is Back

That night, Long Bisheng suffered from insomnia.

Long Bisheng, who usually fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow, tossed and turned in bed today, but couldn't fall asleep.

Long Bisheng covered his head with a quilt, motionless, thinking that he would fall asleep immediately, but Zhou Gong, who is usually called to come and go, probably ran to play mahjong at this moment, or when he was so angry that he was about to make money, he refused to come.

He didn't know why he hugged Lu Xiaoshan suddenly, maybe it was pity?Maybe it's involuntary?Long Bisheng really didn't know, at that moment, his brain went blank, and when he woke up, he had hugged Lu Xiaoshan tightly, just like he had been in this position since Henggu.

Am I to her...

No!He painfully stopped himself from thinking about it, and couldn't let this crazy idea pop up again.

I can't think about it anymore, this is just a boring and stupid idea, just an inexplicable delusion under certain special circumstances!Long Bisheng began to mobilize his thoughts indiscriminately, telling himself to think of something else to forget all of this... The winner of the Champions Cup last season... She smells so good... That final was played too conservatively... It feels good to hug her... Obviously both sides have excellent offensive players, but in the end it was a draw within 120 minutes... How come I never realized that she loves me so much, her tenderness, her kindness, her affectionate eyes...

Long Bisheng pinched his thigh heavily, the severe pain made him sweat instantly, don't think about it anymore!Long Bisheng yelled to himself frantically in his heart, if you continue to think like this, you will be sorry for Ning Xi and Lu Xiaoshan too!
That's right!Just because of Ning Xi, I can't go on thinking like this!I have been with Ning Xi for more than ten years, and there is already an unbreakable relationship between them. If Ning Xi hadn't insisted, they might have gotten married last summer and became a legitimate couple... If I fell in love with another girl when I already had a relationship with Ning Xi, then my serious father would definitely kill me!
Before he knew it, Long Bisheng slowly fell asleep.But even in his dream, he was still worrying about how he should face Lu Xiaoshan tomorrow.

But when he woke up the next day, Lu Xiaoshan had already prepared breakfast for him with a smile on his face.

"Brother Long, good morning." She said as usual, and then, as usual, she and Long Bisheng finished breakfast together, went out together, and prepared to go to the club together.

On the way, looking at Lu Xiaoshan as if nothing happened last night, Long Bisheng could only swallow his doubts in his stomach. When he was about to arrive at the club, Long Bisheng finally couldn't help but said: "Xiaoshan, last night..."

Lu Xiaoshan walked in front of him, Long Bisheng couldn't see her expression, only heard her say in the same tone as usual: "Brother Long... I said yesterday that I will have no regrets in the future." After saying this, he walked into the club without looking back.

Long Bisheng stared blankly at Lu Xiaoshan's back, speechless for a long time.

Is what she said true?Did she really have no regrets after yesterday's hug?
After being dazed for a while, Long Bisheng felt someone push him from behind, and Li Jie's voice came over: "Aaron, why are you dazed? If you don't leave, you will be late!"

"Oh...oh!" Long Bisheng came back to his senses, and followed Li Jie to the locker room.

**************************************************
The confusion didn’t diminish because of Lu Xiaoshan’s words. Long Bisheng could only focus more on training. Only in the hard training and the massive consumption of physical energy could he temporarily let those thoughts disappear from his mind and let himself think about nothing. But when he returned home, he realized that some things don’t exist if you don’t think about them.

So Long Bisheng can only become more and more difficult during training, making himself more and more tired, so that he can fall asleep as soon as he goes home, eats and touches the pillow, so that he will suffer less trouble.

His desperation in training made his teammates overwhelmed, and coach Rangnick had to remind him again and again not to waste too much energy in training, so in the Bundesliga match a week later, Hoffenheim's opponent Borussia Mönchengladbach was unlucky to meet an excited Long Bisheng.

At their home ground, Borussia Mönchengladbach played a beautiful first half. Their Argentine striker Bob Badilla's goal in the first half No. 404 minutes helped them lead Hoffenheim by one goal, and used tenacious defense to make Hoffenheim's striker partner with the most goals in the Bundesliga helpless in 45 minutes, but in the second half, Long Bisheng broke out.

He first created a direct free kick in a good position through a personal breakthrough. Kolarov showed his superb free kick to help Hoffenheim equalize the score. Then when the game was about to enter the injury time period, just when everyone thought the game would end in a draw, Long Bisheng received a cross from Salihovic in the No.809 minute. One, Hoffenheim reversed away to win!

"Hoffenheim, who performed mediocre in the first half of the season, ushered in a strong comeback after the winter break. A wave of two consecutive victories made them the best team after the winter break. At the same time, they have good news that Marco Marin has recovered from his injury. He participated in Hoffenheim's training yesterday and performed well... But the Hoffenheim fans can't be too optimistic. Next, they will play against Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart, Dortmund and Werder Bremen in a row. Long Bisheng, who has scored goals in seven consecutive rounds of the league, is a guarantee for them to survive this devil's schedule. The opposite of Hoffenheim is Werder Bremen. After two rounds of defeat, they have slipped from the top three to fifth place, and it is Hoffenheim who replaced their No.3 position."

********************************************
After returning from the away game, Long Bisheng and Lu Xiaoshan were pleasantly surprised to find that Ning Xi had returned.

"Phew, I didn't run in vain during this period of time."

Ning Xi sat carelessly in the living room, took off her boots, rubbed a pair of Bai Shengsheng's feet, and said to Long Bisheng and Lu Xiaoshan with a smile, "I have already negotiated with several domestic advertisers. Their endorsement contract will be extended for two years, and your income will be doubled. Now your reputation is much higher than the previous two years, and they are willing to take this money... In this way, your domestic advertising revenue is almost tens of millions a year, and you are among the first-line sports stars... This is almost in line with your current status. gone."

Long Bisheng listened absent-mindedly, he didn't care too much about it, whether he would get a few million a year in advertising revenue or tens of millions, it was just a number for him now,

"Also, once this season is over, your contract with Hoffenheim will only have two years left. If they are sincere about keeping you, they will start negotiating with me soon... What do you mean?" Ning Xi then asked Long Bisheng.

"What do I mean?" Long Bisheng was stunned for a moment and asked Ning Xi.

"Do you want to stay in Hoffenheim?" Ning Xi said with a smile, "If you want to stay, start negotiating. If you don't want to stay, just delay. That's what it means."

"If you can renew the contract, it's better to renew the contract. Now the head coach values ​​me, and the teammates also support me. Hoffenheim is also a team that can win the championship. Why should I leave?" Long Bisheng said strangely.

Ning Xi shook her head: "But the income in the Bundesliga is definitely not as good as the other three major leagues. Except for Bayern, other Bundesliga clubs will not give a player a salary of more than 500 million euros. In La Liga and the Premier League, players with such salaries abound."

"Oh, that's what you're talking about." Long Bisheng understood Ning Xi's meaning: "But if I go to a mid-tier team in the Premier League or La Liga, even if I win more than now, what's the point of not being able to win the championship? After all, I'm still young, and I have games to play, and winning the championship is the most important thing. As long as I play well in Hoffenheim, the advertising income will probably be more or less. If I go to a mid-tier team, the real income may be even less. Why should I do such a thankless thing."

Ning Xi laughed: "You're very thoughtful. That's what I mean. If there are no other teams that can win the championship in the league, then it's better to stay in Hoffenheim. After all, Hoffenheim has the strength to win the Champions League... But if they want to renew the contract, your salary will definitely increase. One million a year is not in line with your current worth."

"Go ahead, you are my manager." Long Bisheng replied with a smile.

"I know I'm lazy." Ning Xi slapped him with a smile, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "You can rest for a while... Aaron, your recent results have been good. After two games, you've made it into the top three. The next game is very tough. You have to play hard. Now you know, only by participating in the Champions Cup and performing well, your reputation will grow faster."

"Don't worry, I'm in good shape now, no team can stop me!" Long Bisheng said proudly.

In his mind, there was still one thing he didn't say, that Ning Xi came back, then life would return to the previous state, and the troubles that troubled him would not bother him for the time being... As for the future, let's talk about it later...
