The latest website: Chu Yifan walked out of his office, came to the spacious office hall outside, slapped his hands, and after successfully attracting everyone's attention, he said loudly:

"I won't be working overtime today, I'll be off work when the time comes, everyone go back early."

Those in the hall were stunned for a moment, then cheered.

During the cheers, someone asked Chu Yifan: "What's the matter, boss? Is there any special situation today?"

Before Chu Yifan could answer, the colleague next to him said to him: "You are stupid, the World Cup!"

The other party was taken aback: "The World Cup? Isn't the World Cup on the 19th? Today is only the 14th..."

"Oh, that's the match between China and Spain, today is the opening match! Portugal is playing Norway!"

"Oh! I always thought that the game between Spain and China was the opening match. Aren't they the host?"

"Although Spain is the host, they are in the last group. The match between them and the Chinese team cannot be the opening match..." the colleague next to him patiently explained to this fake fan colleague.

Among the lively crowd, a bald middle-aged man raised his hand, but he sang against everyone: "Boss, can I apply for overtime?"

Under everyone's surprised eyes, Chu Yifan asked: "Lao Li, don't you watch the World Cup?"

"Look..." Lao Li nodded.

"Then what do you work overtime?"

Lao Li frowned: "I can't watch it when I go home, my wife won't let me..."

There was a burst of laughter in the office area.

Chu Yifan also laughed: "You... there's no need. Don't read it today, go home and spend time with your sister-in-law. I'll arrange overtime for you on the 19th."

Unexpectedly, Lao Li shook his head and rejected Chu Yifan's kindness: "I won't work overtime on the 19th, I have to go home and take my wife and children to watch the Chinese team's game together."

"Yo ho?" Chu Yifan didn't expect Lao Li to think so clearly.

"Cultivating fans has to start from a baby!"

Chu Yifan smiled: "That's fine, whatever you want."

Seeing that Chu Yifan agreed, several people suddenly raised their hands: "Boss, we also take the initiative to work overtime!"

Others followed suit: "Wow! It turns out that there are so many 'ears in our department!'" (Note 1)

"Let's go!" As soon as the off-duty time came, Yan Yan got up from his seat. Before the other colleagues started to pack their things, he had already thrown his backpack on him.

Apparently it was already ready.

"Old Yan, are you so active?" Someone teased at the same time.

"If you don't actively watch football, can you still be considered a real fan?" Yan Yan answered him.

But when he was about to leave, he was stopped again.

"Brother Yan, who do you think will win the opening match?" A girl asked.

Yan Yan, who was about to go out, stopped and said to her, "I think Norway will win."

The girl was surprised: "Ah? Isn't Portugal the host?"

"Precisely because it is the host country, the first game is very stressful."

"Ah, I see on Weibo that they are all talking about Lin Hai Tingtao, who writes about football, and they are optimistic about the host Portugal's small victory over Norway..."

Yan Yan smiled: "Ha! What do you think he is doing? That is a big bright light!"

"Bright light?" The girl obviously doesn't pay much attention to football, so she doesn't know much about football-related information.

"It is to burn yourself to illuminate others. If the beacon is optimistic about Portugal's victory, then Norway will basically win. Moreover, Norway's strength is not weak. If you put down your burden and fight hard, you can really beat the host." Yan Yan analyzed.

The girl suddenly realized and nodded, and then asked: "Brother Yan, how much did you buy for Norway?"

Yan Yan's answer surprised her: "I didn't buy it."

"Huh?" The girl's eyes widened.

The World Cup is approaching, and everyone in the company is discussing topics related to football, and football football has naturally become a hot spot of attention.

Some people hope to use money to express their support for their team, while others simply hope to make a fortune by gambling.

What is "a small bet for fun", what is "gamble, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle", what is "a big competition instead of buying, a villa near the sea"...

The girl originally thought that as the most famous fan in the company, Yan Yan should participate in football club activities frequently.

Who would have expected Yan Yan to tell her that he didn't buy the ball.

"Eh? Why?" The girl asked in confusion.

"People who really like football don't gamble."

Yan Yan shook his head and said so to the girl with a smile, then turned and left.

When Tang Xiuyuan was walking in the community, a takeaway guy with a plastic bag ran up to her. When he saw her, he asked anxiously, "Where is Unit 1, Building 3?"

Tang Xiuyuan reflexively pointed in the direction in front of her. After the other party thanked her, she turned around and ran away.

Only then did she come to her senses—one unit in the third building... Isn't that the unit where my family lives?

Then she looked at the plastic bag in the delivery guy's hand, and suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute!"

When the other party stopped and turned to look at her, Tang Xiuyuan asked again: "Is it 1603?"

The delivery guy picked up the plastic bag, nodded after confirming the order: "Yes."

Tang Xiuyuan laughed: "Then just give it to me, it belongs to our family."

"How about reporting the end number of your phone?"

Tang Xiuyuan reported the last four digits of Chu Yifan's mobile phone number. After the takeaway brother confirmed, he handed her the plastic bag, and ran to the exit of the community with a sigh of relief—his order almost exceeded the time limit.

※※※

Chu Yifan opened the door and found that the person standing at the door carrying the takeaway bag was Tang Xiuyuan, and was surprised: "Why did you bring it up?"

"Hey, I happened to be walking downstairs when I met the takeaway guy, and he asked me how to get to Unit 3, Building 1. I don't think it's such a coincidence? I just asked if it was 1603 and it was right. I see He looked anxious, so I asked him to give me the takeaway."

After Tang Xiuyuan handed the food to Chu Yifan, she changed her shoes while talking.

Then she turned her head and saw all kinds of takeaways piled up on the dining table, and exclaimed, "Why are there so many?!"

"Old Yan and the others will come soon." Chu Yifan explained.

"Then I can't eat so much..."

"Where is there too much? This is to be eaten from night to midnight."

While the two were talking, the doorbell on the wall had already rang.

Chu Yifan leaned over to take a look, and there were two faces of Meng Xi and Mao Xiao on the screen downstairs, as well as an excited voice: "Captain Chu, open the door!"

"Good guys, you guys came early enough..." After welcoming Meng Xi and Mao Xiao into the door, Chu Yifan complained while taking the beer they handed over to him.

"Hey, I skipped work!" Meng Xi said.

Mao Xiao said, "Today I rest."

Then the two greeted Tang Xiuyuan who was arranging the dishes at the dining table: "Hi sister-in-law!"

"Okay." After Tang Xiuyuan greeted them, she pointed to the sofa in the living room and said, "Sit whatever you want."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we're not polite!"

Meng Xi and Mao Xiao changed into their slippers and walked into the living room, skillfully turned on the game console that Chu Yifan bought.

"Before they come, let's play a few games first."

"I choose the Chinese team!"

"What Chinese team to choose! Today's opening game, let's use the game to simulate the opening game!"

"Then I choose Portugal!"

"Guessing fist, whoever wins will choose the host!"

The coffee table in the living room is full of various barbecues, braised vegetables and snacks, as well as beer cans.

The sofa was full of people, and there were people sitting on the armrests of the sofa, and some people simply sat cross-legged on the floor.

Everyone is looking at the projection screen intently

Bree's Live.

The World Cup opener has begun.

To be precise, it is just beginning.

"Hey, who can win this game?" someone asked.

"I am optimistic about Portugal. Barea is in really good form in Tramed this season." Meng Xi said.

Yan Yan said: "I think Norway's performance in the Ruhr-Rhine is not bad if they can win against Seth!"

Others followed suit: "It's on the bar, it's on the bar!"

When everyone was making a fuss, the commentator yelled in the broadcast: "Steal in the frontcourt! Opportunity!"

In an instant, everyone's attention was attracted to the live broadcast of the game.

I saw the players of the Norwegian team cross from the right rib!

The football drew an arc and went straight to the point behind the Portuguese penalty area!

"Look at this ball!"

In the Portuguese defense line that hastily retreated, the Norwegian team's No. 10 John Setter suddenly broke out, leaped high without any defense, and shook his head to attack the goal!

He throws the football backwards!

Although Portugal's goalkeeper Ze Correa has made a save action~www.novelbuddy.com~, he still failed to save this tricky header!

"Seth! Goal in! Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolu

"***?!"

"***!what's the situation?!"

"It's my day!"

Everyone in the living room stared wide-eyed and exhaled fragrantly.

Only Yan Yan was laughing: "What did I say? What did I say?! Hahahaha!"
