Chapter 211: 0135 Deadly Turn (Subscribe Please)
Huang Kaiwen sighed about how people led very different lives.
During the warm-up, Huang Kaiwen didn’t conspicuously show off his outside instep kick.
No need.
Showing off during warm-up would only amuse Inzaghi.
It’s more fun to keep it hidden and strike unexpectedly when it really matters.
Huang Kaiwen, along with the young mistress, watched "The Art of War by Sun Tzu". His favorite quote from the book was, "Attack where they least expect it, strike when they are unprepared."
Even a kid knows, don’t fire the gun, quietly enter the village.
He, Huang somebody, naturally had to be a bit smarter.
Back on the substitutes’ bench.
Huang Kaiwen pulled out his gaming console.
Speaking of which.
Nintendo had stipulated in his contract that he was to play while sitting in the stands, injured.
He hardly ever attended the games live, naturally unable to fulfill the contract.
There were several times too when he simply forgot while being in the stands.
Huang Kaiwen felt a bit guilty.
Playing on the bench today felt like compensation.
Hoped the strongest legal department in the eastern hemisphere would let him off.
If Nintendo had sense, they’d pretend nothing happened.
If they didn’t,
Huang Kaiwen was ready to set a cat among the pigeons.
Draw a Mickey Mouse on the console and let them have a dogfight.
"Today in the match, Huang Kaiwen finally returns after recovering from his injury."
"Yes, but he’s sitting on the bench, not sure if he’ll play today."
"Aquilani, the young player hailed as the new Pirlo, faces Pirlo today, wonder who will come out on top."
"Maldini and Cafu are missing again, which brings some crisis to AC Milan’s defense."
"Alright, let’s look at the starting lineups for both teams."
Rome 4231:
Goalkeeper: Doni,
Defenders: Leandro Cufre, Zivo, Mexes, Cristian Panucci,
Midfielders: Tommasi, Aquilani, Perrotta, De Rossi, Mancini,
Forward: Totti.
Milan 442 diamond midfield:
Goalkeeper: Dida,
Defenders: Serginho, Kaladze, Nesta, Stam,
Midfielders: Gattuso, Pirlo, Seedorf, Kaka,
Forwards: Toni, Shevchenko.
During a break in the game,
Huang Kaiwen glanced over.
The players from Rome looked quite familiar.
Quite a few would end up playing for top teams.
Quite a few headed to the Milan clubs.
But Rome’s strongest two stayed put.
De Rossi persisted until Totti retired.
And that Mancini, he had a handsome bicycle kick goal, but later it seemed he got into trouble and was jailed.
Overall, those players from Rome were no mere walk-ons.
Then Huang Kaiwen lowered his head and continued with his game.
In the forums.
"Damn, Huang Kaiwen has VIP seating and he’s still playing games instead of watching."
"Nintendo must’ve paid him, man, I’m jealous; I can buy a DS, still stuck with a GB."
"Let me tell you a secret, Huang Kaiwen’s console was also given by the manufacturer."
"Kaka even looked over to the sideline, probably wants to join Huang Kaiwen in playing games."
"Stop it, whenever I see Kaka, I’m reminded of that ad, the internet is blanketed as soon as it opens, here stands Kado."
"Damn, did Rome score just now?"
"Script’s all wrong, isn’t this leading to Huang Kaiwen showing off later?"
"Rome better stop scoring, otherwise Huang Kaiwen is definitely going to explode today."
3rd minute, Aquilani passes directly to De Rossi, who chips it into the area to find Totti, Totti backheels it to Mancini.
Mancini unleashes a high-quality long shot that breezes past Dida’s fingers.
Cheers erupt at Stadio Olimpico Rome.
Huang Kaiwen didn’t even lift his head.
He was engrossed in "Welcome to Animal Crossing".
This game cartridge was released in late November 2005; it took some effort to get it.
There is a psychological state known as flow, where one does not want to be disturbed and is fully immersed in an activity, experiencing high levels of excitement and fulfillment.
Huang Kaiwen was in that state.
It wasn’t until Rui Costa called Huang Kaiwen’s name,
that it was already halftime.
Looking up and seeing the 2:0 score,
Huang Kaiwen was surprised, asking, "Who scored again?"
"Totti."
"Alright then."
Huang Kaiwen didn’t say much, just turned and walked back.
As soon as Huang Kaiwen entered the dressing room, he saw Nesta hitting Stam.
"Stop fighting, no more fighting!"
Huang Kaiwen stretched his neck and shouted from the side, but didn’t step in to pull them apart.
Both guys were pretty fierce; any misstep could get him injured.
Well, even though he used the [Injury Immunity Card], it still hurt.
Fortunately, the team still had braves.
The two were pulled apart.
"What happened?" Huang Kaiwen asked, stepping forward.
As an important team player, this was the moment for him to assert his presence.
"You ask him!"
Nesta huffed coldly.
"Yap?"
"Earlier he always cursed when I messed up, today he was out of position and let Totti get a chance to score, I said a couple of words and he hit me," Stam complained.
He felt he could win if the fight continued.
Huang Kaiwen was also feeling a chill down his spine.
Both were not known for their good tempers.
Maldini always got injured at crucial moments.
Huang Kaiwen thought since he had assisted Stam with a hat-trick before, he could possibly earn some respect.
He got on well with Nesta too.
Huang Kaiwen sat between the two, an arm around each, advising, "Conceding a goal isn’t worth fighting over, besides, Alessandro, it’s not great you struck first, how about just apologizing."
"Sorry."
Nesta said coldly.
"No big deal, hmph," Stam replied still visibly upset.
Suddenly, Inzaghi sprang up, grabbed their hands together, and announced, "From now on, I declare this couple husband and wife."
