When Chloe called, Patrick was shooting the cover of a sports magazine. His offers have been continuous since this season, and Steve has pushed him a lot, but still a lot. The European Golden Boy Award will be announced tonight, and his voice is the highest. Not surprisingly, tomorrow, his photo will appear in the football pages of major media outlets. Patrick was used to this. For a whole year, he completed the metamorphosis from obscurity to the superstar of tomorrow. It seems to be expected, but it can't be said that it is not pleasantly surprised.

Years ago, Tina's words would always ring in his ears.

"Hey, little Patter, you're going to be a big star like David Beckham in the future. I know. ”

Patrick pouted, not in disdain, but in the hope that he could get more out of football than England's most influential star of all time.

Speaking of which, the former England number one also talked about him in an interview yesterday.

"Oh, I must say that our little princess, Harper, liked him very much. Harper said he was more handsome than me, haha, and as sad as I was, I hoped that the next time we met, he would be able to sign my little one. In fact, we saw it at the European Championships, when he was very good. I hope he will be able to play for the Red Devils one day. That's right, I'm going to watch the QPR game against Manchester United. I'm looking forward to Patrick's performance, but I'm going to support Manchester United to win the game. ”

When Patrick saw this interview last night, Tina was by his side. She laughed for a long time, and then they talked for a long time about playing football as a teenager and David Beckham's role in the England team.

Later, Tina asked him, "David is a bit of a cryer." Pat, did you cry when you lost to Portugal?"

"I know you didn't watch that game because you were busy, but you didn't watch it later?" Patrick's question was a bit aggressive. He's always been like this since he kissed her.

Tina lowered her head and said, "No." Soon she looked up and asked, pretending to be relaxed, "Are you crying then?"

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "At that time, I felt that the whole world could not be darker...... After meeting you, I felt that the whole world had become hell for me. ”

Hearing this, Tina got up from the couch and urged him to go home. She said she was going to watch another Liverpool game.

Thinking about it now, Patrick thought that perhaps he should be glad that at least Tina hadn't turned around and walked away after he had kissed her. Either way, he must have a place in her heart.

The photographer called his name, and Patrick pressed Chloe's phone and got up from his chair. He wasn't prepared to continue his relationship with Chloe.

Now, he's not interested in all women, except his head coach.

Two days before Queens Park Rangers' away game against Liverpool, this year's European Golden Boy award was announced.

Photos of Patrick Amber, a beautiful boy in England, holding a golden ball and smiling a little arrogantly, are all over the media.

Many media outlets have featured Patrick going from a Championship reserve player to one of Europe's hottest talents in just over a year. The selection of this award is jointly completed by the major mainstream media in Europe, and the best young players under the age of 21 are selected. Patrick has beaten a number of talented players in the limelight, including Ousmane Dembele and Andrea Živkovic in the same league.

This is another Englishman to win the European Golden Boy Award after Wayne Rooney.

Speaking after winning the award, Patrick said: "My biggest thanks, of course, are my head coach, Tina. I wouldn't be where I am without her. It's an honour, but I hope to win a real championship trophy with her in the future, a lot of trophies. ”

That night, Lu Ling finally cashed in on the first meal of roast chicken.

Nando-S's takeaway is nowhere near as great as when it's steaming hot and freshly baked. Neither of them had much to eat, but Patrick looked happy.

Their relationship is awkward and natural. Lu Ling pondered while nibbling on chicken wings.

She also remembered that in the interview after winning the Golden Boy Award, Patrick publicly referred to himself as "Tina" in the media for the first time, and seemed to be claiming something.

Patrick took a sip of soda, and when he looked up again, he saw something on the side of her mouth, and he reached over to wipe it off and shoved it into his own mouth. This action may have been a little ambiguous, because he saw that her face was red again.

"Are you shy, Tina?" he asked her.

Lu Ling put down the chicken wings in his hand, wiped his hands, and looked up with a somewhat firm gaze, "Pat, you can't always be like this, you make me feel like I'm cheating." ”

"Break up with him. Patrick wiped his hands and said solemnly.

"No, you don't understand, I like Nick a lot. I don't want to break up with him. And, even if I'm not with Nick, I'm not going out with you. Have you forgotten? I'm your boss. ”

Patrick stretched out his hand again as if he hadn't heard.

"What's wrong?" she yelled a little excitedly, her face ducking back.

He touched the tip of her nose, "I don't know what I rubbed." ”

Then, he stood up, stared at her, and said, "Tina, I don't want to be just friends with you, you have to understand that. I'm with you, I just want to touch you, I want to kiss you...... If the biggest problem is that I'm your player, I can leave the QPR. ”

"No!" Lu Ling shouted.

"Actually, these are never problems. I don't care what other people think. Patrick gently put his arm around her shoulders, "The big question is, do you really want me?"

Lu Ling was about to speak, but he blocked her lips with two fingers.

"You think slowly, think clearly, I'm very patient. Patrick said and smiled softly, "Don't everyone say I'm young, I can wait, no longer than that." Good night. ”

His back looked lonely and stubborn. Lu Ling knew that he could refuse him a hundred times, but he might still continue. It's just that he will definitely be sad in his heart, so he won't say it.

"Pat. ”

The pretty boy turned around, raised an eyebrow, and asked her, "Do you want me to stay?"

"You know not. ”

He smiled slightly.

"Congratulations!" Lu Ling said sincerely.

"Thanks, give me a kiss?" Patrick knew the answer must be no, but he wanted to see how shy she looked.

She blushed.

It's not like you, Tina. This must mean something, doesn't it?

But soon, she said angrily, "Hurry home, don't be late for training tomorrow!"

Patrick shrugged, "You've always reminded me of that, but you know, I'm never late. ”

Before Lu Ling went to bed, Nicholas's phone came in. As usual, they chatted about work and the teams they played against this week.

Everton played Arsenal away but it was early on Saturday and by the time the QPR side kicked off, they had already finished the game. It is estimated that by the time Lu Ling finishes the game, Nick will be back to Liverpool.

Nicholas could hear the girl's hesitation and uneasiness as she spoke. In fact, he wasn't very happy either.

Lately, Patrick seems to have said too much. His post-match interviews, his acceptance speech, all told everyone how special his relationship with his head coach was.

God, he wondered what was going on. But he didn't want to ask again, or even think about the worst-case scenario. All speculation may be wrong, and that will only affect the trust between each other. He should have believed her, and she would sue him afterwards anyway.

He then cut to it, and she looked tired and worried on the other side of the bed.

"What are you worried about? Is it a Liverpool game? You're out of the relegation zone, and you've had such a good record lately, even if you lose......

"Nick, it doesn't make sense for you to say that. I've never liked losing, no matter what kind of game it is. And as far as I know, you're more averse to losing than I amuse. ”

"I want to comfort you. ”

"I know, but it doesn't make sense. ”

"Liverpool have a couple of points ......"

"I don't need your guidance either. ”

The Spaniard laughed, "Then you take off your clothes." He just wanted to make the atmosphere lighter, but he didn't really want her to take it off. He didn't think she would be obedient either.

But, on the other end, the girl put down her phone.

His screen is a ceiling.

Ten seconds later, she was seen topless on the phone screen.

Nicholas gasped, his eyes blinking.

When he spoke again, his voice was a little uncontrollable, "What the fuck is going on? Why are you so obedient?"

Lu Ling blinked, "I'm your girlfriend, have you forgotten?" I'm doing what I'm supposed to do." ”

……

****

After the first training session the next day, Lu Ling took more than ten minutes to attend the pre-game press conference.

When asked about Patrick's European Golden Boy Award, she said happily, "It's also an honor for the club. I don't have the words to describe what a great player he is. So, it's up to you professionals to do the work. ”

The reporters present all laughed.

Lu Ling also laughed in her heart, the English reporter touted the professional Cheng dù of the local star, and she definitely didn't need to worry. And, as far as Pat is concerned, it is impossible to overstate how to brag.

She then made another joke, "Maybe you want to hear that, then I'll just say, you know, if the club sells him one day, the award will go up quite a bit." Don't get me wrong, though, we don't have any intention of selling him, unless I'm crazy. ”

As for the question about Liverpool, Lu Ling's answer was more cautious.

'Jurgen Klopp is the manager who has reached the Champions League final and he has a strong team, which is not easy for us. I hope we can give them as much trouble as possible. ”

Immediately, a reporter made a joke, "Kristen, the sworn enemy of the team against the Knicks, does it make you want to get three points from them even more?"

'Against any team, I want to get three points. ”

"So is Nick going to watch this game? We know he went to see you play Tottenham. A reporter asked wittily.

But immediately there was laughter underneath.

"Oh, that's weird, didn't you watch the schedule, he came to see my game, he didn't have to play Arsenal, did he?" Lu Ling said and stood up. But she smiled and didn't throw her hand away.

Instead, he said, "I did make the Premier League more entertaining, didn't I? However, I suggest that you, even if it is a hypothesis, it is better to ask some tactical questions, lest other leagues mock the Premier League for having nothing but entertainment. ”

Her last sentence was sarcastic and humorous, which made many reporters a little embarrassed. And the reporter who asked an extremely unprofessional question never dared to raise his head.

And Chloe still sat in the last seat, witnessing this qiē.

What she thought was, no wonder Nick was so fond of her.

However, Chloe has some other work to do today besides attending this press conference. Sky Sports made an appointment with Patrick, and she was the reporter who interviewed him. Patrick didn't answer her call, but then called back and said that the relationship was over, and she didn't keep it, but she was somewhat unwilling.

She lowered her head, finished Christine's last sentence, and refreshed Twitter. Seeing Everton's pre-match press conference, a reporter asked Nicholas what he thought of the relationship between Patrick and Christine. She hadn't expected the Spaniard to reply.
