When Zhou Yi returned home, his mother asked strangely: "Why have you been there for so long? Is her place far away?"
"Well, it's a bit far away." Zhou Yi nodded, and then he wanted to go back to his room, but was grabbed by his mother.
"Hey, son..."
"What's wrong, mom?"
"You have a good relationship with that...Cotana? Of course, I'm not saying that you two are boyfriend and girlfriend, I'm saying that your relationship with her should be better than that of ordinary players, right?" Li Cuiyun said.
Zhou Yi didn't expect his mother to ask such a question, but he did not hide his denial, but nodded: "She is Mark's sister. When I was boarding at Mark's house, I often saw her."
"Oh, no wonder..." Li Cuiyun suddenly realized. "I mean when you were with her, it seemed like you had known each other for a long time."
"Mom, you..."
"Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to urge you or something. Although Cortana is also a pretty good girl, but love is your own, and I won't interfere with your mother." Li Cuiyun waved her hands repeatedly and explained. Since she interfered in her son's past and did not allow him to play football, but her son kicked out, Li Cuiyun really did not interfere in any aspect of Zhou Yi. She asked her son to make his own decisions about anything he had.
Zhou Jianliang walked out of the bedroom with his cell phone and interrupted, "I think that Cortana is pretty good. Son, don't worry that our family doesn't accept foreigners. As long as you like, Japanese can do it!"
If Zhou Yi heard his parents say this on weekdays, he would be amused and crying, but today he just said "Oh" and then entered his room.
Li Cuiyun waited until Zhou Yi closed the door before she lowered her voice and said to her husband: "It seems that my son is a little wrong..."
"There must be something between him and Cortana." Zhou Jianliang was very confident, with an expression of "I have never seen anyone who has been here." "I am twenty-two years old, and I should have a girlfriend or something. Otherwise, those reporters would really think that our children are homosexual..."
Li Cuiyun took a photo of her husband: "What are you talking nonsense!"
"It's not me talking nonsense, it's the media talking nonsense."
Li Cuiyun ignored him and turned to look at the spacious room. Although some furniture was piled up, the room still seemed very empty.
"We'll leave in two days. My son lives alone in such a big house. I wonder if he will get used to it... It would be great if there was someone to accompany him..."

Zhou Yi entered the room and closed the door. He did not hear the comments from his parents outside lowering his voice. He turned on the computer, typed "Lee Zongsheng" in the search bar, and found the works of this singer who he had never paid special attention to before.
After being assisted by a song "Lonely Unbearable" in the car today, he became interested in this singer who is not a good singer. In the past, his impression of Leehom may be more about being a music producer and lyrics and compositions. Now he feels that some songs he wrote by himself, but if he sang them himself, it would have a different flavor, and might even be more emotionally appropriate.
After plugging the headphones into the computer, Zhou Yi leaned against the chair, closed his eyes, and heard Lee Zongsheng's love songs.
"...You are the elf in my life, you know all my feelings. It is you who wake me up from my dream, and once again, to open my heart again... We have walked the road of love. We have heard too many songs about love. They guessed everything about us wrongly. The words in our hearts, the words in our hearts, are only said to you..."
"...Work is easy, making money is difficult; falling in love is easy, getting married is difficult; falling in love is easy, getting along with each other is difficult; making decisions are easy, but waiting is difficult..."
"I am a love lieutenant. I come to capture the fortress in your heart. Don't think you are so well prepared. Don't think you are fully prepared. I will taste the taste of love from you... The love lieutenant does not shed tears, the love lieutenant will not get drunk, the love lieutenant will not sleep, and he will not queue up for pursuing love..."
"... Someone asked me where you are. I can't forget it for so many years. No matter how beautiful the spring breeze is, it can't compare to your smile. People who have never seen you will not understand..."
...

That night, Zhou Yi fell asleep listening to Leehom's song.
The next day, when Zhou Yi went to the training base, he did not see Cortana. He did not take the initiative to look for her. Since the other party said he wanted to consider it, let her consider it.
What surprised Zhou Yi was that no reporter came to him to ask what his relationship with Cortana was. His teammates told him that he would help him keep the secret, but he really didn't tell him. Especially Groskreuz, whose big mouth was so tight that he was so surprised.
After meeting him at the training base, he ran to Zhou Yi gossip and asked, "How is it? Have you shown up to Cortana?"
"Why are you so gossiping?" Zhou Yi gave Groskreuz a blank look.
"Oh, I care about you. Tell me quickly, have you confessed?"
"I said it..." Zhou Yi nodded. Since he had confirmed his feelings, there was nothing to hide.
"Not bad! Did she agree?" Groskreutz asked, looking excitedly.
"She said she should consider it..."
"Think about it?" Groskreutz frowned. Cortana's answer was a little unexpected. He also thought that Cortana either agreed or refused. Where is the German woman so much trouble?
"Think about it for a day and then reject you?"
"How do I know..." Zhou Yi spread his hands. Cortana's answer also puzzled him. If he likes himself, do he still need to consider it before accepting it? If he doesn't like himself, do he still have to hesitate to refuse?
"Okay, I have never met such a woman. Brother Kevin really can't give you any life experience..." Groskreutz scratched his head. The women around him didn't need him to do anything. As soon as his identity was lit and the money was waved, there would naturally be groups of women coming to swarm, rushing to please him. If he wanted to find a girlfriend, how could the other party say "I'll consider it again"?
※※※
Until the end of the training, Zhou Yi not only did not see Cortana, but also did not receive her call.
He didn't know whether Cortana had considered it well.
The next day, Zhou Yi still didn't receive a call from Cortana, but this time, he did not continue to wait, but went directly to the physiotherapy room where Cortana was located to find her.
"Hey! Is it good or not? Give me a reply!" Zhou Yi complained to Cortana after entering the door.
"Ah, I thought you were impulsive. After a while, you will forget about this matter..." Cortana spread his hands and said.
"How could it be an impulse? I have thought it through thoroughly and thoroughly!" Zhou Yi said loudly.
"You haven't changed your mind?" Cortana asked.
"Why did I change my mind?" Zhou Yi asked back.
"I remember you said before that your standard for choosing a partner is to look at each other. If you quarrel when you meet every day, you will definitely not be able to survive."
"...Yes." Zhou Yi remembered, but he had said similar things.
"Don't we quarrel often?" Cortana asked.
"This... quarrels are different from quarrels..." Zhou Yi explained.
"What's the difference between arguing and arguing?"
"Uh..." Zhou Yi's mind was running at high speed. He felt that if he didn't give a reasonable explanation, the matter would be ruined. However, he was always anxious and this problem really didn't stump him.
"Of course it's different. When my father and my mother were together, they often quarrel. But that's not a quarrel, but a kind of flirting... Yes, it's flirting. Their relationship has never become worse because of such quarrels. Until now, they have been like this... There is a saying among Chinese people that 'beat is kissing and scolding is love', which means that if the relationship is not close enough, such a thing will never happen..." Zhou Yi explained.
"You Chinese are really strange..." This is the first time Cortana heard such words as "beating is kissing or scolding is love." "So you haven't changed your mind, do you still want me to be your girlfriend?"
"Of course. I didn't joke with you, nor did I lose on a big adventure. I made a decision after careful consideration." Zhou Yi said very seriously on the phone. "Cotana, although the first meeting between us was not pleasant, and although we had some frictions when we lived together... But Cotana, as I said before, my criterion for choosing a partner is to look at each other, and now I have a crush on you. There is no doubt that I want you to be my girlfriend, which is the result of very serious consideration."
Cortana did not interrupt Zhou Yi, and kept listening to him finish everything, and then asked him: "You really want to be with me? I am different from ordinary girls. I don't like romance very much..."
"I'm not good at romance either." Zhou Yi replied immediately.
"I'm a little mean."
"A coincidence, my friends all said I was a savage tongue."
Cortana laughed when she heard this: "It looks like Zhou Yi, it seems that we can only be together. If it were other girls, they might not be able to stand you."
"If it were another man, he might not be able to stand you. So, we are very compatible."
"What if I refuse you?" Cortana asked suddenly.
"I don't know..." Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment before answering. "I haven't considered this issue. Do you want to reject me?"
"I don't know, and I haven't considered this issue, either," Cortana said. "I never thought I would fall in love with a professional football player one day. But Zhou Yi, if the partner is you, I want to give it a try."
Even Zhou Yi, who was eager to learn, took time to work on Cortana's answer before he understood what Cortana meant.
"You promised me?!"
He asked in surprise.
"Yes, I promised you, Zhou Yi." Cortana repeated.
After coming to his senses, Zhou Yi laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Cortana asked.
"I was wondering since we were couples, can we do something...do something?"
"For example?" Cortana looked at him and asked.
"For example...for example..." Zhou Yi was hesitant, not knowing how to say this.
But Cortana took the initiative to stretch out her arms and hooked Zhou Yi's neck, put her head up, and the two of them were so close that the heat that exhaled was sprayed on each other's faces.
"Such as this?"
Cortana lowered her eyes and tilted her head to kiss Zhou Yi's lips.
