After the victory over Atlético Madrid, the Real Madrid players were talking and laughing as they left the Bernabéu stadium. Some players were interviewed, and Qin Xiong drove straight home.
The next day, Marca published a battle report with the title: The Bosque Real Madrid officially sets sail!
The article commented on the wonderful performance of Real Madrid in the first league game of the new season. Real Madrid's offensive players were unanimously praised. At the same time, the colorful characteristics of Real Madrid's offense were described as devastating and terrifying firepower!
Qin Xiong slept very soundly. When he got up, he was surprised to see Sylvia standing in front of the floor mirror in the bedroom wearing only her underwear. Her hands were pinching her smooth belly that was not obvious.
She looked down at the weighing machine under her feet with a bitter face. When she heard Qin Xiong get out of bed, she immediately turned to Qin Xiong and said, "Dear, I've gained five pounds! It's horrible! "
Qin Xiong rolled his eyes and felt a little inexplicable. Her body was very slim, and gaining five pounds did not make much of a difference. After all, the weight gained could not be in the same part of the body.
Qin Xiong hugged her waist from behind and said softly, "What does it matter? Your body is still very good. Even if you have a little bit of weight now, it's still very good. "
Sylvia protested, "No! You're lying! I won't wait until one day you really start to hate it to change. From today onwards, I'm going to increase the amount of fitness activities and join your usual fitness programs. "
Qin Xiong originally wanted to argue with her, but after thinking about it, as long as she was not tired, it was good to exercise more.
"Okay, okay, we can exercise together, but aren't you afraid of tiring yourself? You have a lot of things to do now. "
Ever since the two got married, Sylvia had taken over more and more of Qin Xiong's business development projects and financial management projects, including the winery he bought, the expansion of his personal business brand into the European and American markets, real estate investments, long-term investments in the financial market, and so on. She would take on more responsibilities as a housewife.
Sylvia said, "It's okay, I'll arrange it myself. Go wash up, let's go to the gym!"
Qin Xiong didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he walked into the bathroom.
.....
It was supposed to be a beautiful and relaxing day. Qin Xiong and Sylvia worked out together. He stayed at home and rested for a while. At night, the two of them enjoyed some alone time at home.
But that night, when Qin Xiong was watching the other matches of the first round of the La Liga, a worrying piece of news came from Seville.
In the 31st minute of the match between Sevilla and Getafe, Puerta suddenly fell unconscious on the ground without any physical confrontation.
His teammate Dragutinović pried open his mouth to prevent him from swallowing his tongue and suffocating in a state of shock. The team doctor also rushed into the field. After an emergency rescue, Puerta regained consciousness and was escorted back to the lounge by the team doctor. But soon there was bad news. Puerta fainted again in the locker room and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.
When the game clearly told the audience what had happened, Sylvia held Qin Xiong's hand tightly beside Qin Xiong, as if she was very afraid that the same thing would happen to Qin Xiong.
Qin Xiong was no stranger to Puerta. They had played against each other before, and because they had met Sevilla in the knockout stage of the last season's Copa del Rey, Qin Xiong had a deeper impression of the Sevilla players.
If Qin Xiong was just an ordinary fan, he would probably wish Puerta well at best when he heard such news. But he and Puerta were opponents and had played against each other before. It happened right next to him, so it was absolutely real and had an absolute impact on his soul.
As a player who also played in the same league, he did not just wish Puerta well. He sincerely hoped that Puerta could recover and get through this difficult time.
He let Sylvia sleep first, then called his teammates. He wanted to go to Seville to visit Puerta and give him his blessings up close. Even if he couldn't do anything but watch, he hoped to give him some spiritual support, even if he couldn't feel it.
There were many players in Real Madrid who happened to have the same idea as him.
So the next morning, Qin Xiong went to Seville with a group of teammates. When they walked into the hospital where Puerta was, they saw many Sevilla fans praying for Puerta outside the door. There were also many players from other teams who came to visit Puerta, such as Reyes.
Even Sevilla's biggest rival club, Real Betis, sent someone to visit Puerta.
The atmosphere in the hospital was more dignified. Everyone's expressions were calm, but there was unconcealable worry in their eyes.
Qin Xiong and his teammates learned the latest situation.
After Puerta was sent to the hospital, his condition had not been optimistic.
Earlier in the day, news of his worsening condition had come out.
In the hospital, Puerta had been staying in the intensive care unit.
His doctor said, "Puerta's condition improved, but today he had a relapse. His heart also stopped beating before it was stimulated by a pacemaker. And the long period of sudden cardiac arrest destroyed the patient's internal organs. This caused the patient's brain to lack oxygen supply. "
After staying in the hospital for a whole day, Qin Xiong and his teammates left Seville with their blessings. They could not stay there forever. They were not happy that Puerta was not out of danger.
On August 28, 2007, there was bad news from Seville. In the first round of the La Liga against Getafe, the Sevilla player, Antonio Puerta, collapsed due to a sudden heart attack. Three days after being admitted to the hospital, he finally passed away at the age of 22 because emergency treatment failed!
Qin Xiong, who saw the news at home, held the distressed Sylvia in his left arm, while his right hand subconsciously scratched his hair repeatedly.
Sylvia's sadness came from worry. She was very afraid that Qin Xiong would also collapse on the field one day and never get up again!
Professional football was a high-risk industry in itself, and the chances of injury were very high. After the Hungarian striker Miklós Fer and the Cameroonian national footballer Vivien Fau had personal accidents during games, the death of the third well-known active player, Puerta, made people more aware of the cruelty of the football industry.
Now, Puerta's departure would become a permanent memory in the hearts of the Sevilla club and fans.
In addition, the third round of the Champions League qualifier between Seville and AEK Athens this week was postponed.
When preparing for the second round of the La Liga in early September, many Real Madrid players prepared a T-shirt with a eulogy for Puerta, intending to wear it under their jerseys during the game. If there was a chance to show it to the world, they would not hesitate to show it.
