There is a belief called football

Chapter 243 Foursome in Munich
"Joe",
Li Qiao's voice on the phone was too familiar, low and a little hoarse, who else could it be if it wasn't Stan?
"Stan, don't you spend Christmas at your hometown"?
"yes",
"Why do you sound unhappy?"Li Qiao asked.

Stan sighs, "It's hard to explain".

It turns out that before Stan took Mia back for Christmas, he was worried that she would have a bad relationship with her mother, but the reality is that the plot has turned 180 degrees. The two of them quickly became good friends and left themselves alone.

Not only that, but the two also teamed up to start a "women's doubles" against Stan, and broke the news about Stan's previous embarrassment. Stan felt that this could not go on like this, and the combination of the two of them had to be dismantled.

So Stan decided to take Mia to play, and was afraid that his old mother would not agree, so he thought of Li Qiao. If it was an excuse for Li Qiao to find him, then everything would be logical.

"Joe, what are you doing?"
"I'm hilarious",
Stan said earnestly: "Joe, the most important thing for a player is his body, you can't always have fun with your girlfriend."

"Bah, fuck you, I'm having a barbecue with Eugene, where are you talking, come on, tell me something, or I'll die."

The joke is almost over, and Stan tells the story.

As soon as Li Qiao finished listening, she instinctively wanted to refuse, and Stan had expected it earlier, "Joe, think about it carefully, don't refuse me."

"I just want to have a good rest, and I don't want to go anywhere, Stan, please let me go, can you find Qi Bing, that kid loves to play the most."

"No, you are the only one I know who is currently in Europe."

"Isn't there still Wei Xiao, Lin Zhijian?"Li Qiao asked.

"It's all far away. The nearest one is Kiev where you are. Have you forgotten, we are all from Eastern Europe."

"By the way, Stan, international roaming is too expensive, I'm going to hang up right away." After speaking, Li Qiao hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Li Qiao started to barbecue and chat with Eugene and Leo again, but he couldn't forget Stan, Stan was right, the relationship between the two of them is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Ten minutes later, Li Qiao took the initiative to call Stan back, "Just tell me, where do you want to go?"
"Joe, you are too righteous, but I don't know where to go."

"you".

"Don't worry, we can think about it together",
After much deliberation, there is no need to think about Northern Europe this season. The dimension is too high and "the sky is dark". Don't even think about the UK in the west. It is cold and wet, what about Southern Europe?The weather is very comfortable, but the problem is that people all over Europe are probably vacationing in southern Europe, and it is not easy to book a hotel.

After discussing with Li Qiao for a few minutes, Stan suddenly slapped his forehead, "There is nowhere to go in such a huge Europe"?
"You can just buy a pair of earplugs online, plug your ears and make a turtle at home. After your girlfriend's New Year's holiday is over, everything will be OK," Li Qiao said with a smile.

"Joe, isn't the Lobarov's house very big"?
Li Qiao's heart skipped a beat, "It's none of your business, you. Don't make any wrong decisions."

"Okay, Joe, I will mention one last city. If you disagree, then I will listen to you and go online to buy earplugs."

"It's as if the boat is sinking," Li Qiao thought to himself.

"What city"?
"Munich," Stein said.

"Munich"?Li Qiao repeated it in his heart.

Stan really knows Li Qiao very well. Munich can be said to be Li Qiao's favorite city in Europe, even more than Kiev.

Li Qiao's silence made Stan understand that there was something going on.

"How about it"?
"If you are willing to treat me," Li Qiao said.

"Okay, I treat you to pay the bill",
"Haha, I'll pay for your earplugs."

*****
Stan, Li Qiao made an appointment to meet in Munich in two days. Diana also expressed her support for Li Qiao's proposal. Munich is the most prosperous city in Europe, and Diana also likes to go there.

When they arrived in Munich, the four met in an open-air cafe. As soon as they met, Mia was stunned by Diana's beauty. Mia thought she was a beauty, but in front of Diana, Mia was really ashamed.

"Li Qiao, your girlfriend is so beautiful",
If it was in China, it should have said, "Where is it", but Li Qiao answered "Thank you" in a European way.

Diana herself just smiled lightly.

"Stop talking so much, let's quickly plan where to go next." After speaking, Stan took out a map.

Li Qiao looked at Stan and said, "Stan, don't you have a mobile phone now?"
As soon as the words came out, Mia and Diana burst into laughter, and Stan was very embarrassed, because Stan's habit is to buy a local map at the train station first when he goes anywhere. Although it is the information age, the habit formed by Stan for decades has not changed.

Stan stammered, "Mobile. What if... it's out of battery."

Li Qiao also took a sip of coffee embarrassedly and said, "Okay, I was wrong."

*****
Everyone discussed to visit the old city of Munich first. Munich means "the land of monks" in German, so there are many religious buildings in the old city of Munich. Walking on the old street and looking at the Baroque buildings on both sides of the street, Li Qiao got to know the city again.

During the last visit, Li Qiao got a taste of the most modern building in Munich - the Allianz Arena, and this time Li Qiao appreciated the past of Munich. Of course, Li Qiao also hopes to live in Munich and play football in this city one day.

Mia, who is German, can be regarded as half of the host, and she is responsible for acting as a temporary tour guide and translator.

After inquiring, Mia learned that there is a tall tower in the old city that was built for tourists in recent years, and it overlooks the old city.

As the elevator ascends, the outline of the old city gradually becomes farther away, and the whole of the city slowly emerges in front of us. The old city is neatly planned, with red roofs and slightly gray exterior walls.

"Munich is beautiful," Stein said.

"It's also the first time for me to see Munich from a height. There are no tall buildings in the old city here. Without this new sightseeing tower, it was impossible to see the old city of Munich from this angle before," Mia said.

Diana was also shocked by the scene in front of her, but she didn't yell, but just watched quietly. Unless she was alone with Li Qiao, Diana paid great attention to maintaining her image.

*****
After visiting the old town, the four people most want to go is the most famous "Neuschwanstein Castle" in Munich. This castle became famous because it became the logo of "Disney".

But the castle is in the south of Munich, and it takes more than two hours by car. Mia rented a car, and the four of them drove one or two cars to the border between Germany and Austria.

Out of town, Stan's map is completely useless, and he crumpled it up and stuffed it in the glove box in the front of the car.

"Stan, the old method won't work," Li Qiao teased.

"Joe, don't you know that there is a saying in China that ginger is still spicy when it is old?"
"I have a mild taste, so new ginger will do," Li Qiao chuckled.

Mia didn't know what Stan and Li Qiao were saying in Chinese, but she guessed it must be interesting, so she asked Stan to translate it for her.

Stan said that he couldn't translate, and Mia was in a hurry, how could it be impossible to translate, she blamed Stan for perfunctory him.

But the problem is that Stan really doesn't know how to say "ginger is still spicy" in English.

But Mia doesn't believe that there are things in the world that cannot be translated, so Li Qiao said with a smile: "Who told you to find a girlfriend who can't speak Chinese."

Diana poked Li Qiao with her hand, signaling to stop making trouble, and then Diana tried to translate it for Mia. Diana also encountered such problems when she was in college in China, that is, what should I do if some Chinese-specific concepts are difficult to translate.

But after Diana translated, Mia understood the meaning, but she didn’t think it was funny, so there was nothing she could do. The only way for Mia to know where the jokes were was to learn Chinese first.

*****
Mia drove very fast, and Li Qiao thought: "Do Germans know how to drive fast?" But there are not many cars on the highway, and Li Qiao is not worried about Mia's driving skills.

Originally scheduled for a 2-hour journey, Mia arrived in 1 hour and 20 minutes. Li Qiao really admired this nation with no speed limit on the highway.

After parking the car, I looked up and saw Neuschwanstein Castle on the top of the mountain in the distance. It is said that the altitude there is more than 1000 meters. After that, cars are not allowed to go up the road, but there is a means of transportation, which is an antique 19th-century German carriage. Four people hired a carriage to go up the mountain.

The coachman had a big gray beard, and he was driving in front of the car. It didn't feel very comfortable on the bumpy stone road.

After about an hour, the 4 people finally arrived at Neuschwanstein Castle. When the huge castle appeared in front of them, it felt like the hard work was worth it.

This is a superstar castle located on the top of a mountain. On the other side of the castle is a cliff. Stan once thought that the Great Wall of China was great, but after seeing Neuschwanstein Castle, he felt that it was as great as the Great Wall.

The weather was fine that day, but it was quite cold, so there were not many tourists. The four of them took pictures while strolling around. Mia and Stan took photos together, and Li Qiao and Diana took photos together.

The man picked up his wife, and the wife put her face on the man's shoulder, looking shy and happy.

"Joe, when they're done shooting, you'll pick up Diana and take a picture there," Stein said.

Li Qiao chuckled and said, "You don't come up with bad ideas."

"It's not necessarily a bad idea," Diana hurriedly said.

"How do you like it"?
Diana was noncommittal.

Suddenly Li Qiao picked up Diana without asking her, and then walked up the steps, higher than the couple just now.

"Stan, help us shoot".

"Wow, young people can't use aggressive tactics these days," Stan thought.

Before Stan could press the shutter, the photographer who had just taken the wedding photo of the couple clicked. Maybe he also thought the picture was too beautiful.
