"Pat pulled me off the woman. He quarreled with his girl and wouldn't let me make out with my woman. Thank God Lisa didn't get angry. I said that I have wine at home, and I can drink whatever I want. Ian, you must know, I have a few bottles of eighteen-year-old whiskey in my wine cabinet that I have been hiding for a long time. My father asked me for it, and I was reluctant to give it to him. ”

Ian sat on the grass and felt his ass cold. It rained about early this morning, but it was cloudy all morning, so the grass was still a little slippery and muddy. He bet it must have been a muddy water on his ass right now. But at this time, he couldn't care so much, he couldn't listen to this guy say these things in the dining room, and the locker room was not convenient.

The Scotsman is speaking as if with a stone in his mouth: "Speak quickly, to the point." ”

Yu Zixiang pursed his mouth and continued: "You know Pat, no one can stop him from doing what he must do. He didn't come to you because of this, he knew that not only would you not get drunk with him, but he would persuade him to go back. And I'm ...... You know me too. I had no choice but to accompany him to the nightclub. To be honest, I haven't been to a nightclub in a long time. ”

The clouds were low, and crows were chirping not far away. The two of them glanced over there almost together, and a hint of disgust flashed across their faces.

"We were drunk. Thankfully, I also knew to call Lisa and ask her to pick us up. I don't even know how the I got into Lisa's car or how I got out of Lisa's car. Anyway, when I woke up, Pat and I were both asleep on the carpet. It was supposed to be past eleven o'clock. I looked at my phone and was terrified. It's true. And Pat just didn't speak. Yu Zixiang's voice was briefly drowned out by the roar of planes flying overhead.

Ian sighed slightly when he heard this. He pulled the blades of grass in his hand, turned his head, looked at Yu Zixiang, and asked a question: "You didn't have anything happening in the nightclub, right?"

Yu Zixiang just wanted to say no, but some vague fragments suddenly flashed through his mind. He frowned, "I guess nothing happened, it just seems like a few hot chicks came to talk to us." ”

Ian stood up suddenly, "Pat, does he have ......?"

"Sex, definitely not, I'm pretty sure. Yu Zixiang hurriedly stood up.

He knew what Ian was worried about. If Pat did something he shouldn't have done, they didn't have to wonder if Christine would be angry or sad because of it, and Pat would hate himself to death.

"As for whether there was * or whether there was physical contact, I can't really remember. Don't talk about Pat, I don't remember if I have it or not. Yu Zixiang said with annoyance.

"We have to hope that nothing happens. Ian muttered.

Yu Zixiang nodded. Much of what he said to Ian had been fully told to Christine. The whole time, Christine sat motionless in her chair with a blushing face like a statue, except for the occasional wink, which made him sure she was listening.

And Pat sat on the couch behind him, didn't come over, didn't interject.

Yu Zixiang was punished by deducting a week's weekly salary, not being allowed to participate in afternoon training sessions, and not being included in the squad for Sunday's game. He has nothing to complain about, he made mistakes with Pat and now they have to pay the consequences for their mistakes.

After that, he was asked out of the office by Christine. And Pat is still in the head coach's office.

"It's cold, London hasn't snowed this winter, and before I went out in the morning, Kate told me that the weather forecast said it might fall in the next two days. Ian said suddenly.

Yu Zixiang glanced in the direction of the head coach's office, she had already pulled down the curtain, and he couldn't see anything.

The crows are still crowing, which is really annoying.

"It's better not to. Yu Zixiang smiled bitterly, "Ian, do you think Kristen will regret turning her best friend into a lover now?"

"I don't know. It's time for me to go to the locker room, Zixiang. Go back and rest, oh God, you have a smell of alcohol. Ian took a few steps and then looked back, "As the third captain, I have to warn you, I'm going to kick you in the ass if this happens again." ”

Yu Zixiang looked at the red-haired Scottish man's honest face and felt a little funny, but the expression on that honest face made him instantly awe-inspired. He realizes that of the three fools, Ian is really much more mature than him and Pat.

"I promise, man, oh no, Captain. ”

****

They sat like this for more than ten minutes, and no one spoke. The heating was on so much that both of them were sweating a little on their necks.

In the past ten minutes, Lu Ling replied to a few emails and read the news. Patrick sat on the couch, staring at the water cooler.

As the phone rang, Patrick looked at her again.

She finally glanced at him.

What kind of eyes are that? angry, helpless, and mixed with a hint of regret. He felt uncomfortable when she didn't look at him before, and now, when she looked at him, he felt sad.

"He's in my office right now. I haven't talked to him yet. ”

Her voice rang out. Patrick listened two more words and learned that it was the club's owner, Nathan Neal Lawrence, calling.

When Lu Ling looked at Patrick again, he hung his head, and at this time, in her earpiece, the American boss lost his temper with her for the first time.

"Kristen Lue, please take care of your personal affairs! I don't care if you sleep with our players, but if he goes to a nightclub and misses training as soon as he fights with you, then I may have to ask at least one of you to leave the club! I like you and I like Patrick, but I'm a businessman! It's been a good season so far and I know you and him are the most important characters. I want our good form to continue, not to end, you know what I mean?"

Lu Qi felt that his voice was cold and stiff: "I'll take care of it." ”

"It's better to be so. Nathan Neil hung up after saying that.

Lu Ling put down the phone, and then she propped her chin and stared at the cooled cup of coffee on the desk.

On the other side, Patrick stood up, his hangover still strong.

He walked over to her desk. He stood at his desk for two seconds, and she didn't look at him. He walked around to the desk, and as he got closer, she suddenly turned to him and said stiffly, "Please sit down opposite." ”

He hesitated and listened to her.

She was his head coach. He had to understand that.

She looked at him. He was still wearing last night's clothes, but he had taken off his bow tie and his clothes were a little wrinkled. There was no sparkle in the blue eyes, and the stubble and hair were a little messy. Oh, she's just noticed, his hair is growing a little longer. He is now a typical hangover, very decadent, like the prodigal youth in the classics of the last century. Handsome, dangerous, and full of temptation.

He looked at her too, she was haggard, and he knew she hadn't slept well last night. She called him several times and messaged. At first, he didn't answer because of anger, and then because he was drunk.

His lips twitched slightly, and he whispered her name, "Tina." ”

She didn't answer.

"Baby, I'm sorry. "I'm really sorry." Maybe the alcohol in his blood was still at work, and Patrick felt a little headache.

Lu Ling sat up straighter. She should have corrected his salutation, but she didn't. She wanted to throw a tantrum with him, grabbed him by the collar and asked him what he was thinking?

Her gaze was a little glazed, and she said, "I'm sorry too......"

Patrick immediately interrupted her, "Don't ......"

Lu Ling bit his lip. If you look at this matter from the beginning, maybe she is the one who should bear the most responsibility. If she had thrown away the box earlier, if she had grabbed him before he left last night......

If she hadn't let it all begin......

She bit the tip of her tongue again, a little numb. She couldn't continue, and she knew full well that if she continued this train of thought, she would come to a painful conclusion.

"Tina, don't. Patrick snapped. His head was drowsy, but he knew what she was thinking. She couldn't think like that, that was the last thing he wanted to happen.

Lu Ling picked up the cup of coffee that had already been cold and took a sip. When she puts down her coffee cup, she switches roles.

"Your punishment is the same as Zixiang's, a week's weekly salary will be deducted, and you will not be allowed to participate in training this afternoon. You were suspended for Sunday's game and couldn't play. But against Arsenal, I need to see how you perform in training sessions and then decide whether to put you in the squad or not. Is there anything you'd like to say?"

"It makes sense. Patrick said.

Lu Ling looked at the table below, and then she raised her head and said extremely seriously: "I haven't eaten lunch yet, I'm going to go to the restaurant to get a sandwich now." The afternoon training session will start soon. Let's get here first. I want you to think about it. Forget about our relationship. Think about you being a professional, think about you being an adult, and you should be responsible for your actions. That can't happen again. ”

Patrick stood up.

"I made a mistake and I will not shy away from this, I will take responsibility for my actions, but ......"

Lu Ling also stood up.

"We'll talk about it in the evening. I don't really have time right now. She thought for a moment and added, "...... Go to that house. ”

"Good. I will wait for you, no matter how late. He wanted to kiss her, but he knew it wasn't the right time. 166 Reading Network
