Patrick was excited to hear this. He pushed her against the glass door, and she groaned, a little surprised. His lips pressed over him, and she wrapped her arms around his neck.

This wet kiss lasted for a long time.

Until Anna's "(Oh, let's go to the room)" sounded. They were a little reluctant to separate. Then the two of them chuckled under their breath. Patrick yelled at his sister, "Anna!"

"What, I had good advice, for God's sake. ”

Patrick looked back at the girl in his arms, he wanted to kiss her, but in the end he just kissed her cheek, "I'll be back soon." ”

Later, in Anna's car, Lu Ling finally felt embarrassed because of Anna's always weird smile.

"Anna, can you stop laughing!"

Anna tapped her hand on the steering wheel and teased, "k-i-s-s-i-n-g!orshouldisayf-u-c-k-i-n-g?" Or should I say *ing?)"

"Oh, please, Anna, he's your brother......" Lu Ling couldn't help but laugh. She opened the window.

This is a nursery rhyme that can be substituted by the name of any two people. This nursery rhyme is followed by:

Slove, originally love

smarriage, followed by marriage

There will be a baby in the cradle at the end

She looked out the window and read out the words in her mind.

"You didn't care about me when you kissed. Anna muttered.

"I'm sorry. Lu Ling turned his head to look at Anna's side face and said.

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding. Seriously, Kristen, he looks happy, I never knew he was like this. Anna said seriously.

Lu Ling turned his head, and the weird smile on Anna's face finally disappeared.

Anna looked at her, "Oh, shouldn't I have said that? I didn't mean to make you feel stressed or anything. ”

"Don't worry. I know him. I know what he's like. Lu Ling smiled.

"Can I tell you a secret?"

"What?"

"He was super obsessed with you when he was a teenager. ”

Lu Ling knows a little bit about this secret. It was Tim who told her.

"You don't seem surprised. Anna continued.

Lu Ling didn't answer this question, and said something else, "I remember that he has had a girlfriend since he was twelve or thirteen years old." ”

"It seems like yes. Anna laughed. She and Pat have been dating since childhood. Actually, Christine too.

Anna booked a place at an Italian restaurant that had recently become popular.

After they took their seats, Anna blinked and told Lu Ling, "I found that if you report your name or Pat's name, no matter how difficult it is to book a restaurant, there will be no problem." ”

This Lu Ling herself knows, she has not been told by any restaurant that there is no location this year.

"I guess that's probably the only good thing about my name being in the newspapers all the time. She teased with a laugh.

They asked for a bottle of red wine and ordered food.

After Lu Ling and Anna drank the first drink, they cursed in a low voice.

Anna has already reacted. They drove the car.

But immediately Anna shook her head and said, "It's okay, we can take a taxi back." Or call Pat. ”

Lu Ling shrugged his shoulders, it was indeed not a big problem.

"We've just gotten to something, oh, little Patter's infatuation. ”

"I used to feel like he was treating me like his (best buddy). Lu Ling shook his head and smiled softly.

"That's true. But don't you really feel it at all? I don't believe it. ”

"Maybe I felt it. Lu Ling looked at Anna. For so many years, they often talked about dating men together, but she just didn't expect that this time it was Pat. This made her feel a little strange.

"You look like you're worried. Anna looked at Christine's face, and she was happy, but unlike Pat, her happiness seemed to be full of caution, and it wasn't like her at all.

The waiter served an appetizer.

They ate and talked.

Lu Ling took a sip of wine and suddenly said, "Anna, I've always thought of a picture lately. ”

"What?"

"It seems like when I was a junior in college, and I came home from Easter break and I ran into Pat on the stairs, and he was kissing a girl. Oh, super embarrassing. At that time, they were both twelve or thirteen years old. Lu Ling recalled.

"I can imagine how embarrassing it was. What's that kid's reaction?"

"He must have been embarrassed too, and when I greeted him, he ignored me. I hurried upstairs. ”

"And then?"

"When I was almost home, he came back. We talked a little bit about football or something, but we didn't talk about what happened on the stairs anyway. ”

"That's all?"

"That's all. ”

"Why did you come up with this?"

"I don't know. Always thinks. It was like a reminder that he should be with other girls and not with me. "She has difficulty rationally analyzing all her actions and thoughts so far. This bothered her.

Generally speaking, when one person tells another person that I love you, if the other person does not give the same answer, then the relationship between the two people is likely to be over, but it seems that for Pat, that is just the beginning.

Anna drank the wine in her glass. Then she spoke slowly, "Christine, to be honest, Mom and Dad are really happy for you after I know you two are together. Pat never said it directly, but we could all feel it. I know I said something I shouldn't have said at Christmas, but ......"

"Anna, that doesn't need to be mentioned again. ”

"Good. All in all, I'm really happy to see you all together. What you just said, to me, is your uneasiness, and you feel that you are wrong with him. But why? You're thinking too much. What's the worst possible outcome? Break up? Anyway, no matter what happens in the end, you're best friends and that's not going to change, right?"

The waiter served the main course.

Lu Ling was silent for a long time and asked, "What if it's worse than this result?"

Anna was stunned, cut the food on the plate, and shook her head: "No, no." I can't imagine it. ”

****

Lu Ling returned home and called Patrick. He didn't answer. She then left him a voice message.

Then she turns on her computer and gets to work. Mensah's stats over the past season have been stellar. She really wanted to sign him permanently. But she's definitely not going to add Ian to the deal. If she had to give up one, she would definitely choose to give up Mensa. Athletically and mentally, Ian's value is undoubtedly higher. Not to mention what her personal relationship with Ian was like.

Then, if Ian's condition is not considered, there is only one possibility left, and that is that Mensah will have to submit a transfer application to Manchester United himself. The average player doesn't submit a transfer request lightly. What's more, Mensah doesn't seem to have any intention of leaving Manchester United completely.

Lu Ling wanted to call Mensa, but he hadn't figured out what to say yet. She decided to put it aside for now.

She stared at the computer screen, on which were Mensa's various data. She stared at it for a while, and then realized that she was distracted. Anna's words began to ring in her head.

It didn't take long for her phone to ring. It's Patrick.

"I'm outside. He said.

She opened the door. He smelled of alcohol very strongly. As soon as he came in, he hugged her and kissed her frantically. Both mouths were filled with the taste of alcohol. She could feel his emotions. She took the initiative to end the kiss, looked him in the eye and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Anna told me. ”

"Oh...... She shouldn't have done that. ”

"Don't blame her. Tina, you should tell me what you're thinking. ”

Lu Ling didn't look at him and shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know how to tell you." ”

He paused and asked, "Do you want to know what I was thinking?"

"What?" she looked up at him.

He smiled slightly, "I think, is Christine going to dislike me because of this?"

"Why do you think that?"

"That's what I thought. He said.

"Anna told me you had a crush on me then. ”

He turned out to be shy. The blushing, of course, may just be caused by alcohol.

"Yes. ”

"Pat ......"

"Tell you a secret. ”

"I've been told a lot of secrets today. ”

"I secretly kissed you while you were sleeping in bed. ”

"Lips?"

"It's not. ”

"Face, forehead?"

"Eyes. He looked into her eyes and said.

This time it was her turn to be shy. She remembered something, "That night at the club Christmas party, in my bed, did you say this?"

He nodded.

"What did you say to Alex?"

"I'll tell you about that later. He said seriously.

"So mysterious?"

He raised an eyebrow.

"How long have you been obsessed with me?" Lu Ling asked.

"Baby, you have a lot of questions today. ”

"I want to know. ”

"I'm not sure. Just a year or two? Or never stopped. There was a fleeting trance on his face.

Lu Ling looked at his deep eyes, and the reflection of himself in his eyes. So true.

She touched his face and asked softly, "How's the party?"

"It's a bit boring. ”

"How much did you drink?"

"Not much. Boss, come on, the season is over. He wrapped his arms around her waist, hot all over.

Her voice was hoarse: "Your boss didn't blame you. ”

Patrick finds every day difficult. He rubbed her lips and asked, "Boss, can I sleep here tonight?"

Lu Ling kissed him, "abso-*ing-lutely." (fucking of course) 166 Reading Network
