[The way Christine dances is so funny, and lo and behold, God is fair, if she had chosen to be a dancer instead of a soccer coach, she would have been a poor person now, I mean poorer than me. 】

In the conference room, Nathan Neill read the comment, and Tim and Monchi burst into laughter. Lu Ling raised his head from the document, "This comment is very pertinent, I saw a comment before that said that I was like a frog that accidentally fell into boiling water, and the floor seemed to be hot to me." ”

"Haha, who said that? It's a genius, it's so vivid. "I watched the video too, and it's a shame I didn't get to see it in person." Seriously, Christine, is the floor hot?"

"Very hot. Lu Ling replied expressionlessly.

"Nate, don't be fooled by Christine's calm appearance, she was 'negotiating' with the players on stage for a long time, as if she were negotiating a contract," Monchi said. It's a pity that none of the players bought it. If she hadn't danced that night, no one would have asked her to step down. Unless she is in the capacity of head coach...... Of course, that's not a good choice. ”

Lu Ling sighed, "It's better for them to think that I am dancing like a frog in boiling water than for them to think that I am a coach who does not keep his promises and cannot afford to play." She tilted her head to the teaching assistant, "Why didn't anyone make fun of you? ”

Tim laughed, "Admit it, Christine, I'm a professional dancer compared to you." Don't forget, you are a frog that falls into boiling water. ”

"Forget it. Lu Ling gave up struggling, and she smiled, "At least I, the frog that fell into the boiling water, is still alive." She looked at her watch again and asked, "Are you going to watch the draw here, or are you going to the restaurant? ”

"Go to the restaurant. The American boss said and stood up.

Monchi and Tim both shrugged, they didn't care, since Nathan Niel had made this choice, it wouldn't be bad to go to the restaurant.

Lu Ling nodded at Nathan Neal in agreement. Then she picked up the papers and stood up as well.

"You look a little nervous. Meng Qi suddenly turned back to Lu Lingdao.

Lu Ling smiled slightly, noncommittal.

Monchi smiled as well and didn't speak again. Maybe not nervous, but she must be a little excited.

The Harrington restaurant is in the Christmas spirit. In addition to the Christmas decorations such as the big Christmas tree and the small Christmas tree Christmas lights, several players changed into the club's Christmas sweaters after showering.

As soon as Lu Ling walked into the restaurant, he heard Phil exaggeratedly mocking Yu Zixiang in a Christmas sweater.

"You should wear this sweater to the stadium for Christmas charity fundraiser before the next home game, and remember to carry a keg of the same color as the sweater......"

"Fundraising? Are you deducting your weekly salary this month and next month?"

"Losers are not allowed to speak!"

Yu Zixiang didn't reply. Lu Lingzheng felt strange. Tim quickly told her what had happened. Yu Zixiang made a bet with Phil before the afternoon training game. If Phil can beat him three times in practice, he'll wear a Christmas sweater, and vice versa, Phil will wear it. Now it seems that it is clear that Zixiang lost.

"Kindergarten. Lu Ling shook his head after hearing this. But she suddenly had an idea. She walked over to Phil.

Phil watched the manager walk towards him and thought, I haven't done anything lately to get fined.

"Phil. ”

H. Phil didn't say anything, but he had already greeted the head coach in his heart.

"Let's make a bet, how about we?"

Phil squinted and asked, "Boss, do you want to wear a Christmas sweater too?" I can pass you a hundred times. ”

Nonsense. Lu Ling thought, you are a professional player, and I have nothing to say if you have passed me a thousand times. She narrowed her eyes as well, "It's not that simple. We're betting on your league goals. Think about it, your league goals, at the moment, zero. ”

Phil's face turned red all of a sudden, "You rarely let me start, I don't have enough playing time at all, it's not my fault!"

"Oh, but you started Stoke City yesterday and you didn't score. Lu Ling said.

Just yesterday, QPR secured another league win as they beat Stoke 2-0. In this game, Phil got his first chance to start in the Premier League, but after 60 minutes he still did not score.

Phil scolded again in his heart, but it was hard to say anything on the surface, he squeezed an ugly smile out, and said: "Against a bad opponent like Stoker, what kind of ability is it to score a goal......" As soon as he said this, Leon, who came to join in the fun, gave him a punch in the back. Phil was about to scold him when he suddenly remembered that Leon had scored a goal against Stoke. It's as if he's at fault......

Lu Ling coughed, allowing Phil to turn his attention back. "Well, the bet is, if you can score five goals in the Premier League this season, then I'll reward you with 10,000 pounds. It's not the club that pays for it, I'll give you the money myself. ”

Hat? This bitch could be like this? Phil couldn't believe it. He pondered for a moment, and estimated that this bitch would deliberately not allow himself to play a lot of minutes in the league in the future...... He immediately said: "Five goals are fine, but it's all games, you can't just be in the league. ”

Lu Ling didn't hesitate, "Okay, it's decided." Then she smiled at Phil.

Phil thought to himself, *, why did this bitch smile at me, feeling ill-intentioned and a little horny. It's just five balls, it's a small thing. 10,000 pounds, for free. Or you pay it yourself, hahahaha.

"Yu, you heard it, and, Uruguayans, you heard it too......"

"My name is Leon, is it hard to pronounce, or do you have a bad memory?" Leon punched Phil in the arm again.

Phil punched back, "Ok, Leon, Leon, you hear me, this is a bit...... The boss said it himself. Five goals, I scored five goals and gave me ten thousand pounds. Don't worry, Leon, I'm very generous, please drink when the time comes!" he glanced at the coach and quickly added: "The season is over, the season is over...... Hey guys, this season, if I score five goals, I'm going to invite everyone to my house for a drink!"

"What I'm worried about is...... Even if you score five goals, even if you invite everybody to go, no one is interested. Yu Zixiang muttered with a smile.

"Losers in Christmas sweaters aren't allowed to speak!" Phil said quickly.

"I'll go. Lu Ling said suddenly.

"Hey, Chris...... I mean, boss, are you really going?" asked Yu Zixiang with wide eyes.

Lu Ling shrugged, "The premise is that he can get the 10,000 pounds, Zixiang, do you really think Phil can score five goals?"

Phil looked at the manager, "Hey, I'm here." Boss, just wait and see. ”

"Don't forget to invite me, even if I'm not in London, I'll fly over. Nathan Nill also walked over.

Lu Linghu glanced at the American suspiciously.

"It's better to add another one, if Christine loses, she'll have to dance again. Nathan added earnestly.

Lu Ling glared.

"What's wrong? Didn't I just say it, I'm sorry to miss your beautiful dancing......"

"Good. Add this article. Phil agreed, and smiled brightly.

“… deal.” Lu Ling stretched out his hand.

Phil shook the manager's hand. Ten thousand pounds plus a bitch dancing at my house, oh oh, next summer to look forward to.

On TV, the draw is about to begin.

****

The results of the draw were soon revealed.

Sporting Portugal vsqpr

Paris vs Barcelona

Atletico v Arsenal

AC Milan vs Real Madrid

Inter Milan vs Bayern

Juventus vs Everton

Sevilla vs Manchester City

Borussia Dortmund vs Monaco

Another owner of QPR was on the scene, and Tony Fernandez quickly called over. He asked the manager on the phone what he thought of the signing.

Lu Ling looked at the players in the cafeteria, then at Tim, and replied: "It's about the same as I expected, after all, we are the first in the group, avoiding the strongest teams." But Sporting are not a very weak opponent either, and the good news is that we are away before home...... I think the probability of making the cut is greater than 50%. ”

Tony was delighted, "That's great. ”

"But if the reporter interviews you in a moment, don't do what I said. ”

"Don't worry, Christine, I'm not stupid. I would say that the opponent is very strong blahblah......"

"That's it. Lu Ling hung up the phone with a smile.

Actually, she was quite conservative. In fact, this draw for QPR is the best of the four Premier League teams. After all, Everton is Juventus, Arsenal is Atletico Madrid, and Manchester City is ...... Monchi's old club, Europa League hegemons Sevilla.

Let her choose a hundred times, and she will also choose Portuguese sports.

"Why do I think you've been snickering?" Monchi snapped.

Lu Ling pretended to be serious, "I'm thinking." ”

"Thinking about who the next Champions League knockout opponent will be?" Tim continued. QPR TAs are clearly happy with the sign.

"It seems that everyone is optimistic. Lu Ling clapped his hands as he spoke, signaling all the players to be quiet.

All eyes are on the manager.

Lu Ling glanced at the restaurant, and at this time, she smiled: "Don't underestimate our opponents! I hope that in February, everyone here will still laugh so happily." Oh no, not hopeful, I mean we're going to knock out Sporting Portugal!"

They slapped the table and whistled, all in agreement.

Kindergarten. Lu Ling repeated the word in his heart again. She was thinking when her phone vibrate.

It was a message from Pat:

[If Jose Mourinho goes to Paris, I'm going to meet him again. 】

Lu Ling replied:

[PSG is not an easy opponent. What do you think?]

She had just finished replying when the phone rang. She glanced at the name and said to Nathan Neal and Monchi, "I'll go back to the office first." ”

Then she answered the phone as she walked out.

****

"If you can't get past Juventus, then there's no suspense about the bet we made. Lu Ling said with a smile as he walked towards the office.

"Ah, you're confident. However, Sporting Portugal is, relatively speaking, a less formidable opponent. You're in luck. Nicholas said over the phone.

"And Juventus are going to give you a lot of trouble, Nick. You didn't win against them in the group stage last season, both were draws. ”

"I don't even remember, do you remember? You really care about my team. ”

"Why don't you remember, I think you made it out of the group of death last season, which is your pride. You're afraid that you've been proud in your heart, I don't know how many times. ”

Nicholas laughed, "Christine, dear, you speak like a coach of a Championship team that has never seen the world. ”

"Oh come on, you're a Championship manager and last season was your first Champions League game. Why don't you tell me, when did you reach the last four of the Champions League? What year did you win the Champions League?"

"It's ridiculous to dance without you. ”

"If you're going to say I'm like a frog falling into boiling water......"

"No, no, not really. ”

"Clever choice. ”

"I mean, you're a sexy, beautiful frog that fell into boiling water. ”

"Nick!"

“yo’marriedor... justhavesex?(Since you're so sexy and beautiful, why don't we get married or just do/have sex?)"

Lu Ling froze at the door of his office. Nicholas's joke didn't amuse her, much less make her heartbroken. She felt angry for a moment, extremely angry.

She starked into the phone and asked, "So that's the answer to the question I asked that day, right? It's a joke to you?"

She asked him what he wanted, and he asked her, are we married or are we just doing/having sex?

On the other hand, he was silent.

Lu Ling walked into his office, walked to the water dispenser, and poured himself a glass of water. Her throat was dry.

"Christine, these two months, your attitude towards me...... That day, at the tavern, I wanted to ask not if you would come if it was you who lost the game, but if Patrick hadn't dated that actress, would you come?"

"I won't. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Lu Ling sneered.

Nikola was stunned for a moment and asked bitterly, "So you just want to use me to get revenge on him?"

"Whatever you want. Lu Ling threw down this sentence and hung up the phone.

She drank all the water in her cup in one gulp. She thought back to their last few conversations, so ridiculous, so ridiculous. All along, she thought he knew her well......

But it's ridiculous, even more ridiculous than her joke like the frog that fell into boiling water. 166 Reading Network
