Chapter Ninety-Three: It's Christmas Again
Late at night, London.
Chris and Julia return home from a friend's party, only to find the house dark, and Julia mutters strange things as she turns on the lights in the room.
"It's strange why Jennifer hasn't come home so late. Chris, there are a couple of nice lads at today's banquet, and I think I can make an appointment to show our daughter when I have time. ”
Chris chuckled helplessly, didn't answer, and went to wash himself.
"Oh my God!"
A moment later, Julia's high-decibel screams rang out in the room, and Chris hurriedly rushed over with a glass of water and a toothbrush, only to see his wife standing in his daughter's bedroom, with a look of surprise on her face, and a piece of paper lying quietly on the floor.
"What's wrong, Julia?"
Seeing that his wife was safe and sound, Chris breathed a sigh of relief, but after he asked, Julia still did not respond, he frowned, took a few steps forward, picked up the note on the ground, held it in his hand, and then showed a look of crying and laughing on his face.
This note is Jennifer's message, and there are not many words on it, only a few lines-
"Dear Daddy, Mommy, I tell you solemnly, yes, I ran away from home! I just want to go out for a walk, please don't worry, love you Jennifer. ”
At this time, Julia screamed again: "Oh my God, our daughter ran away from home? What can I do, I've already made an appointment with a few nice guys for her, how can I explain it to others? ”
Chris slapped his forehead fiercely, rolled his eyes helplessly, and was speechless.

"Just stop here, Anderson."
As the car passed through a park, Qin Shou stopped the driver who was driving. He nodded to Anderson and got out of the car on crutches.
Because the team's results this season are very good, the club's management is very satisfied, so this evening, the club held an internal Christmas cocktail party, everyone celebrated.
As the heart of the team. Although Qin Shou was injured, he was still present.
After playing with the big guy for a while, Qin Shou said goodbye to his friends, and everyone didn't force Qin Shou to continue the carnival, after all, Qin Shou is now a "disabled person", and it is already very good to be able to come to the drinking party, and the others can't be forced.
It's dark, but the neighborhood is still bustling. It's Christmas Eve, and bright lights are shining everywhere. Every house is brightly lit, and from time to time there are children running by excitedly on the street, holding gifts in their hands and smiling.
The night breeze blew from time to time, Qin Shou shrunk his neck, then moved his crutches, slowly paced to a stone bench, and sat down. Then I looked at the bright lights and the street scene, and was stunned.
Christmas in the West is the same as the Chinese New Year. It is one of the most important festivals for people here, on this day, family members will get together to enjoy the warmth of family sweetly and warmly.
This made Qin Shou can't help but start thinking about home again.
Of course, he also remembered last Christmas, in the house in England. In the courtyard with snowflakes, the girl who lay down in the snow and chatted with him, the girl who made him feel a forced kiss for the first time......
Qin Shou shook his head, lowered his head, and was silent.
This time. Anderson also got out of the car, he walked to Qin Shou's side and sat down.
"What, homesick?"
Seeing Qin Shou's silent and stunned appearance, Anderson easily saw through his thoughts. He sighed softly, looking into the distance as well.
"When I was younger, I didn't have much time to spend with my family." For a long time, Anderson slowly said as if talking to himself, "It was different then and now, no background, no money, no fame, can you imagine how depressed I was at that time?" Almost every day, I worry about how to eat my stomach. One day I heard that football agents make a lot of money, so I stepped into the industry. I waited for three months at the door of a team to sign a player; I used to spend most of the day walking from my house to the director's restaurant to get someone to sign my players, just to give him two minutes to introduce my players to him after he had finished his meal......"
"Luckily, I'm really established in the industry now. I have my own company, I have a lot of employees, and my company has a lot of great players, who continue to make money for themselves and bring me a steady stream of good pay......" Speaking of this, Anderson's expression was deeply gloomy, "It's just a pity, my parents are long gone, now that I think about it, if I could turn back time, I would rather stay at home in peace, spend Christmas after Christmas with them, and stay with them in that small but warm harbor......"
"It's a pity that time can never be turned back ......"
Anderson sighed leisurely, at this moment, he is no longer as radiant as before, he is like a very ordinary old man, lonely and lonely.
Qin Shou's mouth opened wide, it was the first time he had heard Anderson talk about his past. In the past, Anderson always gave him the image of a workaholic, who seemed to be always inexhaustible, industrious and wise.
"Surprised, Qin?" Anderson looked at Qin Shou's surprised appearance, asked rhetorically, shook his head, and his face returned to its former brilliance again, as if the weakness of this moment was well hidden by him again, "Everyone has their own story, doesn't they?" ”
Qin Shou nodded.
"You have a saying in China called 'good men are ambitious in all directions', which means that young people have been vigorously out there." Anderson continued, "However, I want you to understand that family should always be the most important thing in your heart. ”
Speaking of this, Anderson paused and looked at Qin Shou apologetically: "Please forgive me for making my own opinions, Qin, there is one thing I didn't ask for your opinion, so I took it upon myself to take the initiative." ”
"What?" Qin Shou was stunned for a moment, and asked a little suspiciously.
"Duan and I had a phone call before, and he and his TV station invited you to do a live interview show."
Qin Shou was stunned again, Duan? Interview shows?
Qin Shou understood who the "Duan" Anderson was talking about, but hadn't they already completed the filming task and returned to China?
Wait a minute?
Could it be......
Qin Shou stared at Anderson as if verifying.
An affirmative smile appeared on Anderson's face: "Yes, in China, in your homeland. ”
Although he had already guessed the result, when Anderson said it himself, Qin Shou couldn't help but have a shocked look on his face, and an emotion called ecstasy suddenly jumped out from the bottom of his heart.
"It's Christmas Eve, Qin, it's a Christmas gift for you, MerryChristmas!" Anderson's right hand reached into the black-clothed woolen coat, and then took out a long strip, "Qin, you can go home!" ”
Qin Shou took the long strip handed over by Anderson, but his eyes were inexplicably red, this was a direct flight ticket from Madrid to Shanghai, China.
"Thank you, Anderson." Qin Shou hugged his agent tightly, "This is the best Christmas gift I've ever received, Anderson, Merry Christmas!" ”
Anderson was a little out of breath by Qin Shou's tight hug, but he still had a smile on his face: "This is my job, Qin." ”
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Anderson's Christmas gift to Qin Shou can be called a huge surprise. It's just that Qin Shou hasn't recovered from such a surprise yet, and a phone call pulls him back to reality.
Then, Qin Shou and Anderson got into the car in a hurry and went straight to Atletico Madrid's training base.
The call was from the staff of the training base, saying that it was a girl from outside the training ground, and she was looking for Qin Shou by name, at first everyone thought that the paparazzi had changed their tricks to find news, but the little girl sat outside the training ground for nearly three hours, and the staff realized that something was big and called Qin Shou in a panic, hoping that he could come and take a look.
When the gate of the training base appeared in Qin Shou's sight from afar, Qin Shou's heart suddenly shrank, and it was really her!
After receiving the call, Qin Shou's heart flashed a heroic and beautiful figure, there are not many girls he knows abroad, it can be said that there is only Jennifer. And now, his guess has been confirmed.
Isn't just Jennifer in the UK? How did it suddenly appear in Madrid and wait so long outside the training ground?
Today, Jennifer did not wear the royal police uniform that she never seemed to have changed, a red down jacket was put on her body, and in the cold wind, she sat quietly on the flower stand on the side of the road, covering her hands from time to time to her mouth, and breathing hot air.
Just like a delicate flower, it is suffering from the brilliance of the cold wind, but it is still standing strong.
Qin Shou felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by a big hand, and he felt an inexplicable pain. He is naturally sluggish to feelings, but in such a situation, he is very clear, and uncontrollably understands, his heart is trembling.
"Click~"
The car rubbed against the ground fiercely, and a screeching sound sounded.
Jennifer's weathered face was finally moved, and she looked over expectantly.
The car door opened, and two crutches appeared in front of her first, and then, the boy who had made him think about it for a long time, finally appeared in her sight.
The two of them just stood like this, staring at each other quietly, and were silent.
After a few moments, Jennifer finally moved, a big smile on her face, but a fierce curse in her mouth.
"Hooligans, why did you come, I can't stand the cold!"
