Dominate the Super Bowl

Chapter 446

Chapter 446: 445 Cash in on the bet Chapter 446: 445 Cash in on the bet “Yo, yo, yo!

Peter Parker shining on the scene, The Chosen One, The Chosen One!”

“Wait a minute, wait a minute, shouldn’t The Chosen One be Tim Tebow?

Are you sure this is a compliment?”

In Kansas City, at the Chieftain’s training base, when Li Wei appeared on the field, the players erupted into a commotion, bustling with activity and teasing one after another—

During a brief vacation to New York, the whole of North America spiraled along, with countless news stories unfolding around Li Wei.

One moment he was the brand new tourist attraction in Chinatown, where his surprising presence “occasionally ordering and serving food himself” became a hot topic all over the internet; the next, he was causing a stir at Madison Square Garden, where his high-five with Curry during a game went viral.

Many netizens commented: Li Wei, do you remember LeBron James from the South Shore of Lake Erie?

However, all the news and talk paled in comparison to Li Wei’s heroic deed—

Rescuing a five-year-old child from a dense, bustling crowd as if he were New Yorkers’ friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, preventing a tragedy.

Unquestionably, this ignited passion.

...

First there was Li Wei’s dramatic victory over New York’s nemesis “Darth Vader” Brady, then came Li Wei stepping in to save an innocent and lovely New Yorker.

These successive events catapulted Li Wei to the pinnacle of heated discussion, and it was unmissable even for those with zero interest in football or basketball.

Just look at the sports headline of the New York Times:

“Li Wei: New York’s Peter Parker?”

And they used a photo of Li Wei tightly shielding the child as the illustration.

In just a short vacation, Li Wei had become hot news once again.

Normally, this week was meant for rest and adjustment, with the entire League’s attention focused on the Pro Bowl.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, the two teams soon to clash under the spotlight, stepped off the stage to allow the other League players and teams to enjoy their moment in the limelight; but instead social media platforms were flooded with images of Li Wei.

So—

“King Kong, rookie, King Kong!”

While saying this, Kelsey pounded his chest, making strange roaring sounds.

All the nearby players scattered, looking at Kelsey with disdainful expressions and leaving him, eyes full of innocence, standing alone.

“Hey...”

“Hey!”@@@@

“Rookie, King Kong; King Kong, rookie, isn’t that a perfect match?”

Approaching Li Wei didn’t seem to mind at all, even spreading his arms to welcome any jokes and mockery, displaying a content expression that only incited the players to tease even louder, surrounding Li Wei and leaving Kelsey looking more pitiable.

Li Wei offered a smile and explained, “King Kong isn’t welcome when he arrives in New York.”

Berry laughed heartily, looking at the others, “Some of you seem to be struggling.

Justin, can you not handle it?”

Houston silently raised a finger—

The one in the middle.

Clearly, Berry didn’t care, and his smile grew even brighter, as if he felt honored, then sighted Li Wei in the crowd.

Standing among a group of muscular men, the baby-faced one always bore an innocuous smile, easily mistaken for a scholar if not careful; but once on the field, he’d turn into a beast, letting the opposition taste the consequences of underestimating and ignoring him.

Li Wei slightly lifted his chin, hinting with his eyes and a smile creeping onto his lips.

“How about that, I told you we could.”

How could Berry forget that bet?

Though he had been looking forward to this day, even if he couldn’t fight on the field alongside his teammates, he had always battled in his own way with the team.

However, the moment the Kansas City Chiefs really broke into the Super Bowl, there was still a surreal feeling, a worry that everything in front of him was just a dream, a fantasy clutching and plummeting his heart.

Twenty-four hours, forty-eight hours—

Until now, Berry could finally believe that it had indeed happened.

At this moment, seeing that baby-faced smile shining with sunlight again, Berry’s mood couldn’t help but soar.

He had so much to say, but in the end, he simply extended his right hand, grasped Li Wei’s right hand, and pulled hard.

Shoulder bump.

Back slap.

Making loud noises, Berry said to Li Wei.

“Well done.”

One sentence was enough.

Getting to the point and releasing his palm, Li Wei was about to crack a joke at Berry’s expense when he noticed a fleeting touch of disappointment and bitterness on Berry’s cheeks.

Despite the upward curve of his smile, it couldn’t disguise the struggle between his brows, as if covered by a layer of rain clouds, preventing the bright and brilliant sunshine from shining through.

Li Wei paused.

Instinctively, Li Wei’s first response was to look over Berry’s shoulder, and only then did he see Childres.

Childres wore a face full of obscure sadness, his shoulders drooping weakly, his gaze dodging, standing quietly at the back of the crowd trying to hide, and when he noticed Li Wei looking, he awkwardly turned his head away.

A sense of foreboding surged into Li Wei’s mind.

Li Wei couldn’t and refused to believe it, the smile frozen on his lips, looking at Berry with shock and anger building in his eyes.

No, it can’t be...
