The next day.
One p.m.
Dong Xuebin is still racking his brains to figure out how to gain Xu Yan's trust.
Li Qing, who was wearing a sports shirt and sneakers, walked into the General Office, "The bus has arrived outside. Those who are going to the football match should hurry up and change. You can change again at the stadium. The color is still the same as yesterday. The upper body must be a white T-shirt or shirt and the color of the pants It doesn't matter." After a pause, Li Qing said with a serious face: "Everyone, listen up. In addition, there are two final games in this afternoon. The bureau leader and Xu bureau have given us a task. We must not lose again. Pick up your spirit and play well.”
"Huh? Can't lose?" The people below were talking a lot.
Li Qing affirmed: "Do you understand that this is a political mission?"
"yes."
"yes"
Guo Panwei and Zhuangzi agreed immediately, but their expressions showed little confidence.
Dong Xuebin was very glad that he escaped. He heard from Tan Limei that his side of the division did not win any of the first six games, but lost all by big margins, five to zero, three to zero, It was 7-0, and they didn't even score a goal, so maybe the higher-ups thought they couldn't lose face anymore, so they issued this "political mission."
Dong Xuebin, Tan Limei and Lao Yan stayed behind to look after the house, while Chang Juan, Zhuan Zi and others followed Li Qing.
There wasn't much going on in the afternoon. After Dong Xuebin poured a cup of tea, he took the time to watch a romantic movie with Kuliu online.
The off-duty time during the National Day is..., five minutes before..., Tan Limei started to pack her things, and then smiled and patted Dong Xuebin on the back, "Binzi, let's go to the Yuetan Stadium to watch them play football. , The leaders of the bureau are anxious this time, if they lose from beginning to end, they will definitely be scolded. "
Dong Xuebin had nothing to do when he returned home, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's have a look." Xu Yan was also present, so he might be able to find a chance to get close to her.
Yuetan Stadium.
The small stadium has been booked by the bureau these days. Dong Xuebin and Tan Limei showed their work IDs before letting them in. Walking along the passage, I heard shouting and cheering coming from the direction of the stadium in the distance. Under the scorching sun, more than 20 national security officials were running on the green lawn, sweating profusely. Guo Panwei was holding his knees and gasping for air near his own goal. Guo Panwei shouted "pass the ball" and ran around without his life. Guo Shunjie was sitting outside the sideline holding his sneakers, as if he was a substitute.
"Defend, defend." Outside the court, Xu Yan, dressed in sportswear, loudly commanded: "Everyone, get back and keep an eye on No. 21."
"Don't let him go and guard him." Li Qing was holding Xu Yan's bag and shouting something to the court from time to time.
Tan Limei secretly said to Dong Xuebin: "Look at how serious Director Xu is. He is serious. Let's go. Sister Chang is there. Let's go too."
Dong Xuebin said, "Should I say hello to the leader first?"
"I don't think the leader is busy."
Helpless, Dong Xuebin glanced at Xu Yan's back and followed Tan Limei to Chang Juan. Chang Juan and several young men and women from the Political Department and Finance Department were weakly cheering on the team members, "Go ahead, shoot." "But compared with the cheers from the Chaoyang Branch, it was far behind, not even one-tenth of the shouts.
"Xiao Dong and Xiao Tan are here?" Chang Juan tilted her head and held a fan to cover the sun above her head.
Dong Xuebin said casually: "Sister Chang, how is the situation on the field? How many versus how many?"
Chang Juan said: "This time we played better than before. The score is zero to zero. At least we didn't lose." Looking at her watch, she yawned and said: "The second half will be over in ten minutes. Look at this." It seems that in the end it was a draw at most, barely meeting Director Xu’s requirement of ‘not losing’.”
Tan Limei said, "That's good this time."
At the end of the second half, everyone was running out of energy, and they were running slowly after the ball without much technical content. Generally speaking, the overall strength of the Chengxi Branch is much worse than that of the Chaoyang Branch. Most of the time they are on the defensive side, and the opponent's long-range shots and hanging shots are very thrilling.
Xu Yan raised her voice and said: "There are still ten minutes left to guard against me."
Li Qing shouted: "Everyone starts running!"
At this time, forward No. 21 of the Chaoyang Branch suddenly received the ball from outside the penalty area, turned around and fired a long-range shot. Whoosh, the football was very angular. It drew an arc and missed the goal frame and flew out of the baseline. He almost scored a goal. . No. 21 slapped his head in frustration and gave a thumbs up to the person who passed him the ball, indicating that the pass was good.
Dong Xuebin blinked, "Who is this person? He plays football so well?" When he was in college, he also went to the gymnasium to play football with his classmates, but he was a second-hand player and was very poor at football, but that didn't stop him from knowing how to play football. Watching the ball, No. 21’s footwork is obviously not on the same level as others.
Chang Juan pursed her lips and said: "I heard that this guy used to play in the youth team and is more professional than anyone else. Well, I almost let him break through several times."
Not far away, Xu Yan said angrily: "Keep an eye on No. 21 and don't let him get the ball."
These days, Xu Yan is very angry. She originally thought that this kind of friendly competition was just a formality to respond to the call for sports from above, so as the leader of the General Office, she took over the responsibility of leading the team. Who knows that there are several other branches? They all played very seriously and were not polite at all. However, his own branch suffered miserably from the first game. He lost every game and lost every game. This made Xu Yan lose face very much, so she went down. Death order, today's game must not be lost again, even if it is a draw, it will be good.
The last eight minutes…
The last five minutes…
The score is still zero to zero.
Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at a middle-aged woman watching the battle not far away, frowning deeply.
The woman wearing glasses also saw her and gave Xu Yan a cold smile.
Dong Xuebin observed Xu Yan while watching the game, and of course he noticed this detail. He couldn't help but tugged at Tan Limei with some confusion, and pointed at the unknown woman with his chin, "Who is this person? Director Xu seems to have a problem with her? Is that right? The leader of the Chaoyang branch?”
Tan Limei looked over there suspiciously, "I haven't seen her before, Sister Chang, Sister Chang, do you know that person?"
"Who is it?" Chang Juan looked in the direction of Dong Xuebin's finger and said, "Why is she here?"
Dong Xuebin asked, "Who is she?"
Chang Juan looked around and secretly pulled Dong Xuebin aside. "That person has a similar name to Director Xu. His name is Xu Yan. He is the deputy political commissar of the Chengdong Branch. Oh, I know why she is here. Tomorrow we will have the last meeting The game is with the Chengdong Branch, and she is probably here to observe the enemy's situation."
Dong Xuebin wondered: "Isn't it just a friendly match? As for being so serious?"
Chang Juan chuckled and said, "You don't understand this. The relationship between Director Xu and Political Commissar Xu is not very good. Others may only think of it as a friendly match, but they don't. I heard that the two of them got into trouble when they went to the city bureau for a meeting. We often fight, um, let me tell you another secret, please don’t tell anyone else.” He lowered his voice and said, “You know that Director Xu was divorced, right? Her ex-husband later married another wife, Xu Yan, so because of this , the two of them... Haha, do you understand? "
Tan Limei said, "I asked why Director Xu was assigned a political mission. It turns out he didn't want his love rival to see the joke."
Dong Xuebin also understood, thinking that there is still such a thing.
Chang Juan said: "Stop talking about this, it's not good for others to hear. The game is almost over, come on, come on, come on at the end."
Stoppage time has entered, only three minutes left
Tan Limei became energetic, waved her hands and shouted: "Come on Chengxi team, come on Chengxi team"
Dong Xuebin was also affected by the atmosphere at the scene and cheered them loudly, "defend and defend"
Keeping the tie—this is the goal of Dong Xuebin’s side
However, things went against expectations. Guo Panwei, who was guarding the penalty area, accidentally collided with one of his own from the Disciplinary Inspection Section. The two paused, allowing the extremely skilled No. 21 to quickly break through, one meter, two meters, directly. He entered the penalty area and made a fake move with his feet. The ball passed the center back's defense and came face to face with the goalkeeper.
The goalkeeper was Xiao Gao from the Political Department, a pure layman, just a little taller. When he saw this, he roared and rushed forward, using his hands and feet together, and knocked the opponent No. 21 to the ground in one fell swoop. A moment ago, Xiao Gao himself was kicked by the No. 21 shoe spikes.
No. 21 and Xiao Gao lay on the ground at the same time, holding their legs and grinning.
Dudu
The referee in the city bureau mailroom blew the whistle - penalty kick
