Britannia is a bit of a tough pitch to take down. It is the most windy course in England. Stoke City was also once a team known for their high balls.

Their own fans used to proudly joke that even if Barcelona came to the Britannia Stadium to play a game, they might not win.

At that time, Stoke City's ball barely fell to the ground, and Barcelona, who were dominated by ground passes, might not really be able to win games here easily.

Time has passed, and Stoke City has introduced a lot of continental players in recent years, and there are not so many golf balls for a long time.

And now, QPR has a 1-0 lead here for 89 minutes.

Stoke City manager Mark Hughes has been pacing on the sidelines incessantly, and he has lined up two centre-forwards to keep the ball on the line, but Nedham Onuoha and Timothy Fosu-Mensah have also been successful in clearing the ball.

Yu Zixiang got the ball and made a long pass, and Patrick got the ball near the center circle.

The first-half goal, which was not scored by Patrick or assisted, was inseparable from him - his wide break led to a corner, and then Mensah took Raymond's corner and headed it into the net.

And this time, fifty meters from the goal, the number 7 of the QPR is ready to come on his own.

He raised his head and hoisted the ball straight towards the goal.

The ball crossed the distance of half a court in the air.

Stoker's goalkeeper Butland kept falling back, but it was too late to get back to the goal line, so he could only make a desperate leap. The ball was still above his fingertips.

But this ultra-long-range hoist shot finally hit the crossbar and bounced back.

Just as Lu Ling was choking on the masterpiece's shot, Nathan Raymond rushed up and easily slotted the ball into the empty net.

Queens Park Rangers sealed the win 2-0 away.

After more than two months of decline, the team has completed a three-game winning streak. The camera focuses on the young female coach, who has embarrassed Mark Hughes to the extreme. After this game, QPR is on the same points as Stoke City, with more goal difference, and is in 15th place, temporarily out of the relegation zone.

When Lu Ling walked into the post-match press conference in high spirits, he didn't expect to encounter future problems at all.

After she took her seat, she vaguely felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but Josh Williams, the press officer, was not there today, and she didn't see anyone to ask for the time being.

At first, the reporters' questions were normal, and they were basically asking questions about this game.

However, when the reporter of the "Daily Star" opened his mouth and the scene was unusually quiet, Lu Ling knew that something must have happened.

"Christine, this Patrick's appearance can be said to be very average compared to the previous games, what do you think of him, and does his form have anything to do with his recent off-field life?"

Lu Ling pondered, has the matter of Pat and Chloe's dating been exposed? She hasn't paid attention to these for the past two days, and she doesn't know what the media knows. And didn't Pat just start dating Chloe? Not so fast.

She couldn't figure out what the Daily Star reporter was trying to spy on? She glanced at the press conference again, and Chloe was not here today.

If this is indeed the case, then their reaction is understandable.

Sky Sports' most popular beauty journalist and the most sought after future superstar in England's media?

"Patrick is a very professional player and I hope people don't pay too much attention to his life off the pitch. It's true that he didn't score or assist in this game, but both of our goals had something to do with it. You know, even Messi and Ronaldo can't make a lot of money every game. ”

The QPR acting coach's answer was official, which did not satisfy the reporters on the spot.

Before the Daily Star reporter could ask, the Sun reporter had already changed his way and asked, "Christine, I think everyone is concerned about whether your relationship with Patrick has affected his competitive state?"

What is my relationship with Pat?Lu Ling frowned, she turned her head left and right, searching for people from her own club on her side and behind her. Finally, she saw a familiar face, it was a trainee press officer, no wonder she was so slow to react. Lu Ling beckoned to her. When she came over, Lu Ling hurriedly asked, "What are they referring to?"

The immature intern press officer was a little embarrassed and struggled to speak, "About half an hour ago, a Twitter account posted a photo of you dating Patrick ......"

"That's not a date. Lu Ling interrupted her.

Startled by the gaze of the young manager, who was only a year or two older than herself, the trainee press officer closed her mouth and stepped aside.

The reporters at the scene all watched Christine Lu with great interest. They speculated whether she really didn't know, or if she was pretending to be this qiē.

Lu Ling's face sank, his eyes sharp, "If there are no problems related to the game, I think, we will come here." With that, she stood up and tried to get out of here as much as she could.

But it was difficult to get out, and the reporters didn't want to let her go at all.

"Christine, are you dating Patrick?" a reporter shouted from behind her.

This sentence was extremely abrupt throughout the press conference, and along with this sentence, there were several ridicules.

Lu Ling glared back, "I'm curious to know, if Jose, Nick, and Pep were eating with a player, would they also be considered dating by you? Just because of my gender, right?"

Her sarcasm didn't work for the reporter at all, and the reporter still smiled ambiguously, "No, in that photo, you are holding hands, it doesn't look like the relationship between the coach and the players......

"So if I'm going to hug my players on the sidelines in the future, you're going to write like I'm dating each of them? Oh, just write it, I don't care if you put me a hundred or a thousand boyfriends. But you messed up my winning mood and you got on my blacklist. This is the second time Lu Ling has been so angry at a press conference after she clashed with the reporter who fired from The Sun last season.

The trainee press officer, along with several Britannia Stadium staff, helped her block the reporters who were following her.

****

The door to the locker room was slammed open. Several players came out of the shower naked and giggling, completely unexpectedly the coach would come back from the press conference so soon. They hurriedly covered their □□ or turned their backs.

Lu Ling pursed his lips and said impatiently, "Oh*, what should you do, I'm not interested in your dick." Whoever gave me a phone, I'm going to see who really filmed me and Pat. ”

John O'Connor hurriedly lifted his underwear, then took out his phone from the locker and threw it at the head coach.

When Patrick came out of the shower wrapped in a bath towel, he saw Tina, looking at her phone with an angry face. The atmosphere in the locker room was also a little tense, although everyone was doing their own thing, but there was not much movement, and the conversation was very quiet.

Didn't she win?Why did she seem so bad?Pytrik asked Ian, who told him what had happened.

Patrick was also surprised, they were photographed eating at the restaurant that day? Just now, the reporters embarrassed her?

He turned his back and put on his clothes. When he turned, Tina was standing behind him.

Her expression was not as bad as it had just been, she handed him her phone and said mockingly to all the players, "You have to think about eating alone with me in the future, if you are not careful, you will become my boyfriend." I don't want to be approached by your wife or girlfriend. ”

There was laughter in the locker room, and everyone laughed.

"Oh, Coach, I'm single and don't mind. Yu Zixiang hummed.

"Bull*! you change it every week. Zixiang, you pay a little attention, if it affects the competitive state, don't blame me for letting you watch the water dispenser. Lu Ling was still very angry, but was amused by Zixiang.

Patrick kept his head down, staring at the screen of his phone, and he couldn't listen to a word of them. In the photo, he is holding Tina's hand, very intimately, and he keeps his head down, from this shooting angle, it seems that he can kiss her no matter how close he is. It's really hard not to get misunderstood.

And the one who posted this photo, *, is the one.

He also gave a fucking sentence:

【surprised#ach

It looks like we've made a new step forward in our story, so why shouldn't I be surprised at all?#职业教练]

After reading this, he dropped the phone directly, before John reached out to stop it.

His action caused a brief embarrassment and tranquility in the locker room.

Soon, though, John picked up his broken phone and said pitifully, "Pat, this is my phone." He glanced at the pretty boy, and oh, his expression was terrifying.

Lu Ling gently patted Patrick's shoulder, "Forget it." Her anger had largely subsided. After all, they took all three points at Britannia.

"Don't let me know who this account is, or I'll have to kill him, I swear. Patrick said as he tossed the contents of the locker into his bag. Then he jerked on his zip and walked out of the locker room with his bag.

****

Before receiving Nick's call, Lu Ling was wondering when he would call. And if he doesn't call, maybe she should call and take the initiative to explain to him.

"Are you taking revenge on me?" asked Nicholas angrily.

But as soon as he finished asking, her laughter came from the other end. He was angry. She's laughing, what is she laughing at? He waited quietly for her to finish. He had just drawn with West Ham and was in a bad mood and it was their fourth draw in the league, especially considering that Manchester City also drew with Leicester this round and it should have been a good time for Everton to reach the top. When he came out of the press conference himself, he immediately heard about her press conference, and he felt like he had eaten a fly.

Although he knew that she was definitely not dating Patrick, ......

"How are you going to explain it?"

"There was actually Steve that day, and he ate and left first. ”

"So then only the two of you are left, is it necessary to be so close? Why do you have to be so close?

"Nothing, Nick, you know you have nothing to worry about. ”

"If it's Ian and Zixiang, I really don't have to worry about them. ”

"Oh, let this go, the reaction from the media is enough to annoy me, I don't know how the fans will react yet. Lu Ling held the mobile phone in one hand and swiped the iPad screen with the other. Her words at the press conference were almost live-streamed on social media. A lot of fans and journalists have already taken to Twitter to discuss the matter.

Nick paused for a moment and said, "Maybe you should sue them, I'm your boyfriend." ”

"Why should I sue them, it's my private matter. Lu Ling was disdainful.

"Because it would make me happy, I don't want to see your and Patrick's names put together. ”

"You're not telling the truth, are you?"

"I'm not kidding. We haven't dated yet, and I've always wanted to take you to a Liverpool restaurant for dinner. ”

"Let me think about it. But, before that, Nick, you have to tell me why you went to Spain?"

"I'll tell you when we're done. ”

"Why don't you sue me first, and then I'll decide whether I want to date you or not. ”

"You're my girlfriend, and you're obligated to go on a date with me. ”

Originally, Nick's tone was easy to make Lu Ling angry, but when he talked about his obligations seriously, she felt a little funny.

"Nick......

"What?"

"Are you like that when you're with other women?"

"What?"

"HMMM is a little needy?"

"You know, but you still have to ask. ”

"I want to hear from you. ”

"You know, you are." Nicolas was a little frustrated, so he made a joke that Jose Mourinho called himself in 2004 when he first took charge of Chelsea.

As he finished, the girl's laughter from the other end was cheerful. He laughed himself.

"Well, I'm honored. I love you for needy. He wasn't angry at all when he heard her say that, he just wanted to see her.

Lu Ling's heart was sweet and greasy. But she suddenly realized that if one day, he was no longer her boyfriend, he would be a different person.

Because she's that kind of person herself.

Give you all the enthusiasm, but if I leave, I'm cold.
