Colin. John was wiping down the bar, the other two bartenders were busy fiddling with the tables and chairs, and the bar was open, but the preparations were still a little unfinished. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Anyway, no one will come to drink so early or anything, today is the weekend, and most people are probably still sleeping lazy.

Just as he finished wiping down the bar, a woman walked in the doorway.

The woman wore a peaked cap that was pressed low to the brim. Under the brim of the hat is a pair of large sunglasses that can hide half of the face. Judging from the dress of this woman, she is very fashionable and beautiful, and the price of this one is estimated to be not low. Such people usually go to the kind of nightclubs full of carnival music, and never come to their traditional fan bar. And it's a person, is she here to ask for directions?

"Hello, would you like something to drink?" The young bartender next to him hurried up when he saw the beautiful woman.

The beautiful woman turned to him and gave him a charming smile, and the bartender stayed on the spot, completely oblivious to his duty.

The woman didn't pay any attention to the poor creature either, but walked straight to the bar, and then sat down on the barstool until Colin was staring at her. John said, "Have a Guinness stout, boss." ”

Boss John was about to bow his head to pour the wine, when he suddenly reacted, and he exclaimed, "Emily?!" ”

The beauty pulled down her sunglasses and let out a crisp laugh: "Uncle John, it's been a long time, you're still so fat!" ”

The beautiful woman who came early in the morning to drink dark beer was none other than Emily. Stan, she's already in London, and after dropping off her luggage at the hotel, she's going straight to the Wimbles bar.

She took off her hat as well and set it aside, revealing her beautiful blonde hair.

"Why are you here? The newspaper doesn't say you're ...... Are you not in good shape? ”

"That's a lie, hehe!" Emily grimaced at the surprised boss John.

"Running away from home again?" Boss John is no longer surprised by Emily's eccentricity.

"No, this time I got my mother's permission, I'm going out on vacation and relaxing."

"What? Is there anything you're not happy about? Or are you too tired? After Boss John asked, he saw that Emily was already surrounded by two young bartenders, so he introduced them to them, "Guys, this is one of the two prides of our Wimbleds Bar - the big movie star Emily. Stan! ”

"Hello." Emily smiled and greeted the two young men.

"You, hello......" The two of them were stupid when they saw the stars they had only seen on the big screen, TV, magazines and newspapers before, and they appeared in front of their eyes.

"Alright, you guys go get busy. Also, don't tell anyone, not least the media, about seeing Miss Stan, have you heard that! Boss John said with his eyes narrowed.

"Know, know, know......" The two of them nodded, and some reluctantly went to do the assigned work.

Emily took her eyes away from the two men, "They're funny. ”

"How does it compare to Chu?"

"Chu?" Emily flattened her mouth.

Boss John noticed her knee-jerk move. "It seems that something happened between you and Chu?"

"Ah, no." Emily hurriedly lowered her head and drank to cover it up.

Boss John didn't continue to ask, this belongs to someone else's **, and he is not qualified to point fingers.

"There's Chu's game tonight, do you watch?"

Emily looked up in surprise: "Look here?" ”

Boss John nodded: "This is a fixed program, in addition to the Wimbledon games, we will also watch all the games in which Chu participates in the live broadcast." ”

"He's so popular...... Emily pouted.

"Do you want to come and see it? Everyone will be there then. Well, they're probably all sleeping. ”

Emily thought for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I'll do it." But I'm going back to sleep now, I've just arrived in London—huh. Emily yawned uncontrollably. She didn't tell Boss John that Chu would not be able to play because of a ban from the team.

After pouring all the beer into her stomach in one gulp, Emily waved goodbye to Boss John, who put back on the disguise and left the bar with her head down.

Jackson met Emily at the door of the bar, but he didn't recognize it, just turned his head to look at the woman in such a dress.

He turned around and walked in and said to Boss John, "Who's that girl?" To be honest, Colin, I've been with you for more than ten years, and I haven't seen a beautiful little girl come except Emily. ”

"Didn't you see you today?" Boss John replied without raising his eyelids.

※※※ On February 13, the day before Valentine's Day, Chu Zhongtian was alone at home, turned on the TV after dinner, and prepared to watch the game.

It was the 22nd round of the Bundesliga, and Hoffenheim played away to Bochum.

He didn't make the 18-man squad because he had eaten fifteen minutes in previous training sessions, for which he was suspended for one round by the team.

The media didn't know about this news before, and it wasn't until the game was about to start that they found out that Chu Zhongtian was missing from the list they got.

The debate and speculation about how Rangnick was going to punish Chu Zhongtian can be put to rest. He was banned by the team, which is also the most severe punishment, many people think that at most it is a fine, and then a verbal warning, and then an apology to the whole team, it is over.

I didn't expect it to be banned...... It seems that Bochum is going to be happy this time.

※※※ "No Chu? There was a burst of exclamation from the Wimbles bar. The starting list and substitute list of both sides in this game were played on the TV screen, and Chu Zhongtian's name was not seen in either the starting list or the substitute list.

"Isn't it? Did Hoffenheim's head coach really ban Chu because he was late? ”

"If you don't have Chu, what else will you watch in this game? Boss John, change the channel! ”

A crowd of people made noise.

At this moment, the door suddenly fell silent, and the people there even made a way out.

Emily is dressed up again. They didn't recognize her, and the silence was just because they were speculating about what this beauty was doing here...... "Hey, chick, you're in the wrong place." This is not the place for a beautiful woman like you......"

Someone else whistled at her.

Emily ignored them, walked straight to the bar, and said to Boss John, "Have a Guinness stout, boss." With that, she turned around, took off her hat and sunglasses, and smiled at the stunned crowd: "Why shouldn't I come?" ”

"Ah...... Ah......h

"Ai, Emily!!" Everyone shouted.

"Oh! I don't have flowers, do I? ”

"Dude, give me a punch! I'll see if I'm dizzy! ”

"I didn't have a few drinks today......"

"That's it! Give me some quiet! Boss John yelled in a fit of rage, and the bar fell silent.

"You haven't drunk much, Emily has come to see everyone." After yelling, he pointed at Emily and said.

"Hello everyone, long time no see!" Emily smiled at everyone.

"It's really Emily, it's been a long time...... Woo, I'm so impressed, Emily remembers us old boys...... No, let's hug one, Emily ......" Jackson stretched out his arms and squeezed towards Emily, but finally hugged old Bent.

"Don't take advantage of it, Jackson. Aren't you afraid that your wife knows? Old Bent stared at him as Emily was behind him, grimacing at him.

"Uh......"

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone laughed.

Emily laughed out loud with them, and here she found the feeling she had felt before, and the mood that had not been good for so many days was finally truly cheerful. She is not a Hollywood movie star, not the focus of being entangled by the paparazzi all the time, and not a goddess and idol in the minds of fans. She's just an ordinary Wimbledon girl, drinking beer and chatting with everyone in one of the pubs she frequents, laughing wherever she is happy.

You don't have to deal with the media, you don't have to think about what kind of expression you want to use in front of the camera, you don't have to rush from one place to another, you don't have to attend those annoying dances, and you don't have to mess with celebrities who just want to sleep with you.

※※※ "Chu didn't play today, and Bochum seems to have a chance to take advantage of it." Comper's interception error gave Shestak the chance to get a one-on-one chance, which was too easy for him......"

The commentator is retelling the goal just now. Hoffenheim are 1-0 down at home.

Chu Zhongtian sat in front of the TV, he had already slapped his thigh just now and regretted it.

'Hoffenheim didn't play well a bit, their midfield didn't work well. Sana and Vosa are both defensive midfielders, Eduardo and Salihovic are closer to the wings, and there is a lack of people in the middle, and blindly playing the wings will only make Bochum's defenders better defending......"

"yes, yes, that guy from Sana should go a little further, didn't he do that a lot when he was in Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain?" Chu Zhongtian continued with the voice of the commentator on the TV.

Temporarily looking away from the TV screen, Chu Zhongtian looked at his phone.

Today I saw the news on the Internet that Emily was going to rest for a while, and said that she was not in good health.

They haven't been in touch since that phone call that day. Today, Chu Zhongtian made a phone call, but the phone was turned off.

He was a little distressed, and the emotional problems that plagued him these days made him almost have no intention of playing. So this ban is actually quite timely, at least it can make him calm down, so as not to be embarrassed in a nationally broadcast game.

Maybe...... The best way to get rid of this is to focus on football?

Chu Zhongtian stared at the TV screen again.

*※※Emily noticed that the TV hanging on the ceiling was playing the match between Bochum and Hoffenheim, and that Hoffenheim could be seen in the United States, so she was very familiar with Hoffenheim.

"Chu didn't play, and he didn't even make the squad. We were expecting that...... "Boss John explained to her.

Emily nodded. Chu couldn't play, she already knew, and on the phone, Chu told her personally.

So what should he be doing at this time?

Emily thought as she held her beer glass.

※※※ "Chu did not appear, and it had a great impact on Hoffenheim...... The specific reason why he didn't play was because he was fifteen minutes late in training, and it happened that this time was the time of rectification in the Hoffenheim team, Chu hit the muzzle, although he was the captain, despite his good record in the past, he had to be suspended this time......"

The narrator on the TV is giving the audience a little gossip about the players and the team.

Mathilde looked at the TV, she turned off the light, and the whole room was only the light source of the TV screen, and the light was reflected on her face, flickering and flashing.

Chu was late, apparently because he and himself ...... I really don't know where to start...... ※※※ In the second half, Hoffenheim quickly equalized, the scorer was Ibisevic, Eduardo's cross, Ibisevic swept the goal six meters in front of the goal.

In the seventy-sixth minute, Bochum took the lead again.

In the 80th minute, Hoffenheim equalized again. The goal was scored by Salihovic, a direct free-kick. Hoffenheim were actually lucky to be able to equalise, their attack was of no quality and completely directionless. You can only rely on this set-piece to find opportunities.

It wasn't until the final moments of the game that the Bochum defenders gave an own goal that Hoffenheim struggled to win the game.

"It's over! Hoffenheim struggled to get three points 3-2 on the road, and without Chu, they seemed to be a second-rate team. Rangnick can breathe a sigh of relief, he has maintained the authority of discipline without losing points, and that is the best thing that can happen. The good news is that the Hoffenheim core will be back in the next game......"

Chu Zhongtian didn't listen to the narrator's rambling so much, and turned off the TV directly.

When the Hoffenheim-Bochum match was over, Emily was still in the bar catching up with old friends she hadn't seen in years. The TV was still playing the game, but no one cared anymore.

They talked about the years when Emily was not yet famous, mainly focusing on the days after Wimbledon Football Club was founded.

They went to watch Wimbledon Athletic together and cheered for Chu.

"I've got two celebrities out of this bar!" Boss John said proudly. "One is you, Emily, and the other is Chu, haha!"

"It's a shame we didn't bring a whole new crowd of customers to your bar."

"It's okay, I don't need to, as long as you can still remember the Wimbles Bar and me Colin. John is it, ha! ”

"Yes! As long as you invite us when you get married, wahaha! Jackson, who had drunk too much, blushed and laughed.

"Stupid Jackson!"

"How dare you say that, Jackson!"

Everyone laughed and scolded.

Emily stared at the glass in her hand.

Tie the knot?

It's a distant thing...... She and Chu have been together for so many years, and they have never mentioned any marriage. She always felt that marriage was a distant thing, and there was no need to think about it now.

Now that this is happening again, is marriage still under consideration?

She poured all the freshly filled dark beer into her stomach in one gulp.

"One more drink!" After drinking, she placed the glass heavily on the bar.

When Emily woke up from the bar where she was lying on her stomach, the noise was gone, the bar was empty, and she had a thick coat on her back.

She sat up, a little confused.

She remembers drinking a lot, then getting drunk, and when she got drunk, she fell asleep on the bar. So what time is it?

Look down at Patek Philippe's new Nautilus women's watch on your wrist. It's almost twelve o'clock.

Doesn't seem to have slept for long?

"Are you awake, Emily?" Boss John's voice came, and Emily realized that Boss John was at the other end of the bar.

"It just closed, and they're all gone."

"I'm sorry, I'm asleep, Uncle John......" Emily tried to jump off, but found that her legs were numb after sitting for too long, and her voice was hoarse. How long did I sleep? ”

"An hour? Approximately. Boss John walked over and handed her a glass of water.

"Thank you." Emily took the glass and drank it down. She put the quilt back and was picked up by Boss John, who poured her a glass of water again.

"I shouldn't have asked about your **, Emily. But I don't think you're in the right state of mind. Is something wrong? ”

"Uh, no, nothing...... John Boss. Emily took the glass, but instead of drinking it dry, she held it in her hand and looked at the water in the glass.

"Is your next stop in Germany?" Boss John asked.

"Yes...... It's Germany. ”

Boss John nodded, smiling. "Greet Chu on my behalf and tell him that everyone misses him very much. If you have time, please feel free to come. ”

"Okay, okay."

"Do you want me to call a taxi for you, Emily?"

"Good...... Thank you. ”

Boss John called, and Emily finally regained sensation in her legs, and she jumped off her stool, her eyes drawn to the wall full of picture frames.

She quickly found a photo of herself and Chu in it.

It was the only photo at Wimbledon, and on the day Chu represented Wimbledon in the league for the first time, he, himself, and Boss John were pictured in the parking lot.

In the photo, he and Chu still look a little young, he is only one year older than Chu, and he was less than twenty at that time.

Chu Zhongtian was wearing Wimbledon's No. 8 jersey, and his expression looked a little strange, like a smile but not like a smile. He was standing next to him, tilting his head and leaning on him, and his two hands wrapped around Chu Zhongtian's arm. Behind him was Boss John, who had a big belly, and the others, and everyone was laughing happily.

"I didn't expect the two of you to end up together when I took this picture." Boss John's voice suddenly came from behind, startling Emily.

"But the more I looked at this photo, the more I felt that it was a good shot, and I took all the feelings I should have." Boss John pinched his chin, leaned in, and stared at the photo and said.

"What does it feel?" Emily asked, looking at him.

"You guys are a natural pair, haha!"

While he was laughing, a car horn sounded outside the door.

"It's quick, the car is coming, Emily." Boss John handed Emily a cap and sunglasses.

"Thank you." Emily took them and put them on one by one, then waved goodbye to Boss John. "Goodbye, I'll be sure to come back to see you all, Uncle John."

"Remember to bring Chu with you! We were happy to come back one, and we were happy to come back two! Ha ha! Boss John put her in the car and watched the taxi drive away before heading back.

Closing the door again, he walked over to the wall and tilted his head to look at the photograph.

"Hmm......"
