On this day, he went to the gym for training in the morning as usual, went home to eat, fell on the bed to rest, and browsed the trending searches on Weibo.

When he saw a trending search about a player being injured, he clicked on it directly.

The moment he saw the picture, he was stunned.

In the picture, there was a familiar figure, whose ankle had been deformed by 90 degrees.

Xiaomi knew very well what this meant to a football player, and he couldn't help but worry, so he continued to watch.

The next picture was the moment he caught the ball, and the opposing player did not retract his foot and shoveled directly at his ankle.

This was obviously aimed at people, and it was going to ruin Zhang Lei.

He didn't continue to watch, but directly found Zhang Lei's phone number and dialed it.

The phone rang for a long time, and was finally picked up. A low and tired voice came from the microphone.

"Who is it?"

"Hello uncle, I am Zhang Lei’s teammate in The Hague, how is he now?"

"Lei Zi's teammate, he just had surgery, we still need to observe how he is doing."

"Uncle, which hospital are you in? I want to go over to see him."

"Don’t bother yourself. Don’t you want to compete?"

"Uncle, I don't need it. Please tell me the address."

"Well, we are at the main campus of Tianjin University...."

Zhang Lei's father told him the address, and Xiaomi didn't delay. He took a backpack with a charger and went straight to the South Station.

It's very fast from Yanjing to Tianjin Port, and the high-speed rail only takes more than half an hour.

He bought a ticket on the APP, and his heart was full of worries.

Zhang Lei's family conditions are considered middle class. His family is in the hardware business and the conditions are pretty good.

After this kid started playing football, his family was also very supportive.

Before Zhang Lei went to The Hague, his club invested some money, and also wanted him to get some gold.

It was originally thought that Zhang Lei would have a good development after returning to China, but I didn't expect that domestic games would be so dirty.

These players who play football have average academic performance. If Zhang Lei doesn't recover well, he will have no future.

It's normal for players to get injured, but this kind of injury is obviously the most unworthy.

Zhang Lei's love for football is no less than his. He can't imagine if Zhang Lei can't play football in the future.

He arrived in Tianjin Port 35 minutes later.

He took a taxi and went straight to the hospital. He asked questions all the way. Before he arrived at the ward where Zhang Lei was, he heard crying.

"The child was injured on the field, how can you just ignore it?"

The woman cried loudly, Xiaomi turned around quickly, and the scene in front of him made him speechless.

The corridor was crowded with people watching the excitement. Several middle-aged men with slicked back hair and some local supporters of the central government were surrounded in the middle.

They seemed to be dodging someone, and there was a hint of impatience on their faces.

Xiaomi immediately understood that they didn't want to care.

"It's no use for you to pester us. This is a decision made by the top management. We have already done what we should do."

After saying this, a Mediterranean said, and waved to leave.

The people watching the excitement in the corridor whispered.

"Is this a work injury? Are you trying to extort money?"

"Sister, that's a kid playing football"

"How did you break your leg while playing football?"

"You don't understand this...."

Xiaomi had no intention of listening to their discussion and resisted the urge to go forward. He looked around and went straight to the doctor's office.

This is a hospital and this chaos will not last long and someone will deal with it. What he needs to do now is to understand Zhang Lei's injury and whether there will be any sequelae.

Ankle injuries can be serious or minor. They are still young and recovery is not a big problem. The only problem is whether they can continue to play football in the future.

Zhang Lei's ankle is twisted outward at 90 degrees, and it is definitely fractured. However, how serious it is is what Xiaomi is most worried about.

After knocking on the door, he pushed the door open and entered the doctor's office.

"Excuse me, who is Zhang Lei's attending physician?"

The doctors in the office looked up at him. The oldest doctor wearing glasses asked with a doubtful look on his face.

"Who are you?"

""Hello, doctor. I want to know about Zhang Lei's condition. I am his teammate."

The other party waved and Xiaomi walked over.

Xiaomi bowed respectfully and sat on the stool next to him when the doctor asked him to sit down.

The doctor took out a film and fixed it on the viewing light. He said to Xiaomi:

"Your teammate was seriously injured this time, and it's not just his ankle that was injured."

The doctor explained in detail. Although Xiaomi didn't understand it completely, he understood a little bit.

Zhang Lei not only injured his ankle, but also had a ruptured ligament capsule.

Due to the strong impact force, a high fibula fracture also occurred at the upper end of the fibula.

Zhang Lei can't play in the game for at least a year. Even if he recovers, he will have to wait until the rehabilitation situation to determine whether he can continue to play.

After the operation, Zhang Lei had seven steel nails in both ankles.

The cost this time was very high. The club only paid 50,000 yuan, and there was still more than 100,000 yuan owed after the operation. After hearing this, Xiaomi certainly understood that Zhang Lei would not be able to be discharged from the hospital for less than 30 days during his hospitalization.

This does not include the future rehabilitation costs and daily expenses. After all, he is here to compete, not to live here.

Xiaomi was very dissatisfied with the club's behavior of shirking responsibility. He frowned and listened to the doctor's explanation. He asked

"How long will it take for him to be discharged from the hospital? Where can he get better rehabilitation?"

"He will be discharged from the hospital in half a month, and the nails can be removed later."

"The best place for rehabilitation is the Third Hospital of Medical University, but the cost there is very high. His family."

The doctor didn't finish what he said, but Xiaomi already understood what he meant.

"How much will he need during this period?"

After asking for details, Xiaomi thanked the doctor, took the receipt and went directly to the payment office on the first floor.

He is not a pushover, but he attaches great importance to brotherhood.

He didn't know what difficulties the Zhang family encountered. When he was in The Hague, he got along very well with Zhang Lei, and Zhang Lei really treated him as a brother.

He was willing to help Zhang Lei as much as he could.

After paying the fee, he looked at his card and felt a little painful.

This was his biggest expense. He didn't make much money during his time in The Hague. If the transfer went smoothly, he would really get With an annual salary of 500,000 Euros, this amount of money was nothing to him.

After finishing his work, he came to the ward again, and the crowd had dispersed.

He walked to the door of Zhang Lei's ward, heard crying in the room, and the sigh of Zhang's father, and pushed the door open and walked in.

This was a three-person ward. Zhang Lei lived in the bed near the door. He stared at the ceiling blankly.

His right foot was in a plaster cast, lying stiffly on the bed.

His parents did not notice him, and said something with their heads down.

Xiaomi walked directly to the head of Zhang Lei's bed, smiled and punched him in the chest.

Zhang Lei was startled and looked at him straight

"Small..."

As soon as I squeezed out a word, tears started to flow down my cheeks.

"Oh, why are you crying? Are you too excited to see me?"

Zhang Lei sobbed softly, feeling aggrieved.

""What's the point of crying as a grown man? Everyone has been hurt before. You can't be defeated by such a small injury!"

Xiaomi was a little disappointed and couldn't help but speak louder.

Zhang Lei's parents looked at the boy in front of them with some surprise, with a questioning look on their faces.
