Li Ang was quite pleased that the team had successfully renewed Benzema's contract.
Benzema was only seventeen years old. In Li Ang's original plan, Benzema was more of an investment for the future. In his original plan, Benzema could emerge in one or two years and then begin to become an important offensive force for Sporting de Gijón.
But now, the Frenchman's growth was faster than he had imagined. He had now become an important substitute option for Sporting de Gijón's forward line. He was the third striker after Milito and Di Natale. Considering Di Natale's technical characteristics, it could be said that Benzema was already the team's second center forward.
Such a talented young man was bound to attract more and more teams, especially the big teams. This was something that could not be helped. However, Li Ang was also confident that his Sporting de Gijón's future height and results would not be much lower than those of the old powerhouses.
Li Ang still had a certain amount of confidence in the young man he had cultivated.
It was Christmas Eve. Li Ang was destined to spend Christmas Eve at an altitude of ten thousand meters. His flight was in the afternoon local time in Spain, and he flew back to China via Dubai.
He needed to first rush to Beijing to complete the final confirmation procedures with the owner of the courtyard house and officially complete the property transfer.
Then he had to rush home. December 31st was Li Ang's father's birthday. The old man had Li Ang when he was thirty-two years old. Li Ang was now twenty-eight, so Li Ang's father's sixtieth birthday this year. It had to be properly organized. This was also the reason why Li Ang did not go to the United States to accompany Alice this Christmas.

Capital Airport.
Li Ang frowned a little. He had originally made an appointment with Hua Hua, who would pick him up. However, he did not see Hua Hua. He wanted to call her, but he realized that his phone was turned off and not turned on when he boarded the plane.
Then, as soon as the phone was turned on, it vibrated. There were some notifications of messages, missed calls, and several consecutive messages.
Hua Hua apologized and explained that she could not pick him up. She sounded very embarrassed.
At this time, the phone rang again. It was Hua Hua Hua.
"Hey, I'm here." Li Ang said somewhat unhappily. He was a person with a strong sense of time. He was also a man of his word. He was still a little unhappy that Hua Hua didn't come to pick him up.
"Ah — — it's connected." Hua Hua heaved a sigh of relief when the call finally got through. "I'm really sorry, I'm temporarily … cough cough … something came up … cough cough …"
"Are you sick?" Li Ang asked directly.
"No."
"Really?" Li Ang didn't believe it.
"Seriously …"
"Don't try to lie to me. I'm still a doctor," Li Ang said.
"It's just a small cold."
Li Ang shook his head gently. He knew Hua Hua 'er's personality. She was like a little chili pepper. If she wasn't suddenly sick, and if her illness wasn't serious, she wouldn't have stood him up.
"What's the address?" Li Ang asked directly.
"What?" Hua Hua didn't understand.
"Your address."
"Do what?"
"Take a look at you. You're so sick. Shouldn't I go and see you?" Li Ang said. During this period of time, Hua 'er had been helping him with the matters of the courtyard house. It was reasonable for him to visit her.
"There's no need …" Hua Hua's tone was a little hesitant, but there was also a hint of expectation.
"Send me the address." Li Ang said firmly, then hung up the phone.
After a while, when he bought some nutritional supplements at the airport store, he received the address.
*****
Li Ang got out of the taxi and looked at the small courtyard in front of him.
This was an old alley. In such a big city like Beijing, to be able to have such a small courtyard of a three-story building in such an old alley was already very rare. It would be even rarer in the future.
Li Ang suddenly felt a little inexplicably nervous. He suddenly felt that his trip was ambiguous. Hua Hua should be living with her family. He came here as soon as he got off the plane. It really felt like he was meeting her parents. This wasn't the result he wanted. He didn't want to be misunderstood.
After entering the courtyard, the door downstairs was ajar. The light inside was dazzling. Out of politeness, he didn't push the door open directly. Instead, he pressed the doorbell.
Through the light, he saw a lithe figure quickly turn to the door. Before the person arrived, her voice was heard first. It was a very pleasant voice. "The door isn't locked. Can't you come in by yourself? Why don't you remember to bring the key?"
Then, a pretty face with red lips and white teeth appeared. It was so beautiful that it was suffocating. It was extremely lovable. She brought with her a faint fragrance.
When she saw Li Ang, she was stunned at first. Then, she stuck out her tongue and shrank back behind the door. "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
*****
"I'm looking for …"
Li Ang suddenly stopped talking.
He looked straight at the girl standing in front of him. Li Ang, who was calm even in the face of Real Madrid and Barcelona, had a very interesting expression on his face at the moment. It was a mixture of disbelief and ecstasy. It seemed that he wanted to move forward, rush up, grab something, and hold it tightly. However, there seemed to be a force that froze his feet.
Hua Jieyu looked at the man in front of her. Li Ang's behavior made the girl feel very strange. Was this the legendary nymphomaniac?
She knew that her beauty was attractive to the opposite sex. She hated these evil eyes. Her beautiful nose wrinkled cutely. She was about to speak, but she was a little surprised. She didn't see the disgusting greed and lust in the eyes of the man in front of her. What kind of eyes were these? There was shock, ecstasy, disbelief, excitement, and some kind of avoidance. Hua Jieyu felt that all the expressions that she had seen in many romance novels to describe a person's expression were not enough.
Li Ang felt that his whole heart was about to jump out. Those memories, those sweet, sad, unforgettable, unforgettable, and memories that he deliberately buried, overflowed at this moment.
He saw Hua Rui, the girl who silently accompanied him for many years in his previous life. She melted his heart. The two of them finally decided to help each other and stay together for the rest of their lives.
There was no mistake.
This time, Li Ang had the clearest judgment in his heart. No, to be precise, it was a feeling. He was not mistaken. There was no mistake. It was Hua Rui. Whether it was her appearance, her voice, or the way she shyly hid behind the door after seeing him, they were all so familiar.
*****
Hua Jieyu was a little surprised, a little shocked, but more than that, she was puzzled and a little scared. She asked again, "Who are you looking for?"
Li Ang took a deep breath. He knew that he had lost his composure. He knew that the girl in front of him was very familiar with him. This was the most beautiful memory in the depths of his memory. However, she did not know who he was. This was a very strange and mysterious thing.
He forced himself to calm down. "Hello, Hua Rui. I'm Li Ang, a friend of Hua Rui. I often hear about you from Hua Rui. Nice to meet you," he said.
