Football: I carry forward Shaolin Kungfu

"It's here."

When he came to the door of a ward, Zanetti straightened the collar of his suit and opened the door to enter.

Ye Chen was dragging a football with the Inter Milan team logo on it, while Julia was carrying a flower basket.

These are all prepared in advance and put on the car.

"Hi, I'm Zanetti, and I'm visiting you on behalf of the Inter Milan club."

Zanetti smiled and greeted the people in the ward.

In a bright ward, a thin, bald boy was lying on the bed.

Wearing a blue and white striped patient gown, with sunken eye sockets and head tilted to one side, he was listening intently to his mother, reading aloud from a picture book.

The child's mother looks to be in her 30s, with long chestnut-colored hair tied behind her head, and a few messy hairs hanging down. Although she has a dignified face, the crow's feet are clearly visible at the corners of her eyes, and she looks extremely tired.

Seeing Zanetti and his group, she stood up, her eyes glowed with joy, she hurried forward to shake hands with them one by one, trying to greet them with a loud voice:

"Hello, I'm Jamie's mother, my name is Karin, thank you, thank you so much! My son woke up early in the morning, I hope you will come."

"Little Jamie, look who's here," Karin looked at her son, her voice suddenly became gentle, "The stars of Inter Milan are all here to play with you!"

Jamie's eyes widened, and after blinking, he jumped out of the bed and jumped to the ground.

He didn't have any shoes on, so he ran to Ye Chen's side, grabbed the corner of his clothes, and said in a milky voice:

"Brother Ye Chen, I saw you again!"

Ye Chen squatted down, smiled and touched the child's little bald head.

"Jamie, have we met before, why don't I remember?"

"I've seen it before, you even gave me a jersey!" The little boy nodded seriously.

Ye Chen was taken aback, when did he give Jamie a jersey?

Karin smiled, also squatted down, lovingly touched the back of her son's head, and said to Ye Chen:

"Ye Chen, Inter Milan played Manchester City in the Champions League quarter-elimination round. After the game, you gave my son a jersey at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester."

"Isn't it, little Jamie?" Karin rubbed her son's little earlobe.

"That's right, that was the day we went to Manchester, and I just ate the tomato hot dogs sold at the stadium!" Jamie grinned, revealing a row of teeth missing a front tooth.

Ye Chen gradually came to his senses.

In the first match of the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Inter Milan lost 0 to 1 away to Manchester City.

Because of Conte's stupid conservative tactics, Inter Milan swallowed their first loss of the season!

After the game, although everyone was in a very low mood, Ye Chen still insisted on leading the whole team and went to the away fan area to express his gratitude to the fans of the expedition.

In British stadiums, the auditorium is very close to the stadium, often the first row of stands is only three or four meters away from the sideline.

Ye Chen gave his jersey to a little boy sitting in the front row. At that time, the little boy was crying with excitement!

"So it was you, Jamie! But I remember that time, you had hair, why now..."

Jamie's appearance changed drastically, from a head of black and thick golden curly hair to a small bald head, causing Ye Chen to fail to recognize him for a while.

Julia pinched Ye Chen's back, signaling him not to speak.

Jamie raised his head, pursed his mouth, and said seriously:

"My mother said, I am growing now, if I shave my hair, I can grow taller and stronger, so the doctors and sisters shaved my hair, but it doesn't matter, my mother said that the hair will grow back, When I am taller than my mother, my hair will grow as much as before!"

Karin's body trembled violently.

The haggard woman raised her head slowly, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, forced a smile, and said a medical word to Ye Chen that Jamie couldn't understand.

"Because of chemotherapy."

Julia's eyes were also red.

Suppressing tears, she put the flower basket down on Jamie's bedside table, picked up Jamie's two little shoes, and squatted beside Jamie.

"Little Jamie, sister put your shoes on for you."

"My sister also brought you a flower basket, which is placed by your bedside. Look, do you like it?"

Jamie glanced at the flower basket, clapped his hands happily and said:

"It's beautiful and beautiful. Grandpa also liked to plant flowers on the balcony before. We have many flower pots at home. He even picked me up and asked me to water the flower pots with a cup!"

Karin saw her son smile, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Yeah, we used to live in Genoa, in the south of Italy, the weather is good, and people like to grow flowers on the balcony. We always say that life is as bright as eyes, and children grow like flowers."

Ye Chen handed the football in his hand to little Jamie, "Jamie, since this is the second time we meet, we are old friends, now my brother gave you a football, take it!"

Jamie saw the football with the Inter Milan team logo on it, and was about to reach out to pick it up, but turned to look at his mother, "Mom, can I have this football?"

Zanetti shoves the football directly into Jamie's hands,

"Take Jamie, when you are discharged from the hospital, you will take this football and come to the Meazza Stadium to play. The three of us will play with you!"

Jamie happily hugged the football and ran around the ward, cheering for joy!

"I can go to the stadium to play football, someone will play football with me!"

Zanetti looked at the happy little Jamie and secretly sighed.

He thought of his son, when Jamie was his age, he was also a little fan, carefree and happy all day long.

It's a pity that Jamie is already in the terminal stage of cancer, and he will never have the chance to run and play football on the court.

Jamie started panting after running for a while, and the football in his hand fell to the ground.

"Mom, I'm so tired..."

Karin took off Jamie's shoes, hugged him to the bed, and put the football on his bedside, "Lie down for a while, the doctor sister said you should pay attention to rest, and play football after your illness is cured, okay?" ?”

Jamie nodded, leaning against the pillow, showing a sweet smile, closing his eyes and falling asleep.

An old professor in a white coat pushed the door open.

"Karin, regarding Jamie's condition, I organized a general hospital consultation in the morning. Please come to my office and I will explain it to you in detail."

"Okay, but I still have guests here..." Karin looked at the doctor with some embarrassment.

Julia hurriedly said to her, "Hurry up, Karin, I'll take care of Jamie."

Karin pursed her lips and smiled at her embarrassedly, "Then I will trouble you, Julia."

Zanetti whispered to Ye Chen, "Come on, let's go and hear about Jamie."
