Chapitre 221: 220 imposing as a rainbow

"Boo, rookie!"

"Boo!"

The crude and brutal swear words at Gillette Stadium mixed with the jeers, torrentially flooded down, menacingly engulfing Li Wei who stood by the field.

Although playing away games was always like this, today the vitriol focused on Li Wei was particularly vicious as his touchdown once again pushed him to the pinnacle.

Li Wei, with a composed expression, took these attacks as proof of his excellence.

But Justin Houston couldn't stand it.

This linebacker, drafted in the third round, 70th overall by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2011, had grown into the leader of the defense—

making it to the Pro Bowl for four consecutive years since the 2012 season.

Last season, a knee ligament tear had lamentably kept Houston out for most of the season, only returning in Week 11 of the regular season, but he never found his form.

A new season, a new beginning.

Houston was ready to make his comeback, starting with the defending champions.
