The two of them led the dog downstairs, and when they came to the lawn where Wangcai ran dozens of laps every day, the big dog jumped up and down like crazy.

Alonso patted him on the head to calm him down, then released the leash: "Go, lad."

The runaway wild dog disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ling Yun squinted his eyes and looked in the direction where his son disappeared. For a while, he thought, this silly dog ​​has become more and more lively in the past two months, and for a while, he thought about his son growing up. I don't need him as a father anymore.

……

"Let's go." A hand stroked Ling Yun's back, and gave it a gentle push. After the push, he was still reluctant to leave, and just kept the palm of his hand on his back. Ling Yun was very uncomfortable.

Boss Xiaoling felt a little inexplicable feeling in his heart. He was thinking about the gentle scene of him stroking the dog's head just now. He felt that he was sick. Why did he force the gentleness of others to the dog on himself? The person next to him walks forward.

The two walked aimlessly along the path, and since there was no one to start a conversation, there was no chat.From time to time, Ling Yun had to turn his head to look at the other party, and then turned his head unwillingly.

After a while, he found a topic to chat with the other party: "You seem to like that piece of Wanguo very much, and you wear it almost every day. Does it have any special meaning to you?"

Alonso raised his hand subconsciously, but because he just took a shower and changed his clothes, there was nothing on his wrist.

A chuckle covered up the embarrassment of this action, and then gave the answer: "Well, I think his design is in line with my personal personality, not flashy, but low-key and mature enough."

Ling Yun didn't want to hear this, he wanted to hear that "special meaning", looked at the other party curiously for a while, waiting for his next words.

Alonso turned his head and found that the child next to him was looking at him curiously, with the cold moonlight refracted in his eyes, as if waiting to hear a wonderful story.

This look is really cute, the palm on the back moves up, and naturally puts on the other person's shoulders, and it seems to show the intimacy between friends. He took the person to his side and asked him with a smile: "What are you doing?" What do you want to hear?"

"I want to hear that special meaning."

"It doesn't have any special meaning. Someone gave me a watch from the IWC Engineer series a few years ago. At that time, I would wear that watch whenever there were important occasions. After winning the European Cup this year, I received this long-awaited Portuguese series. Loved it, and then replaced the previous one."

Ling Yun didn't need to ask at all, as long as he got in touch with the context and time node, he probably guessed who gave the last piece of the Engineer series, and why it was replaced by a piece of the Portuguese series after the European Cup.

After hearing what he said, Ling Yun not only did not suddenly realize after clearing up his doubts, but instead felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

He put his hands in his pockets, deliberately ignored the sourness in his heart, and didn't show anything on his face. He just chatted with the other party for a while, and he didn't leave the topic of watches.

Alonso said that the first time he came into contact with the watch was a special custom model presented by Franck Muller to the players after Liverpool won the Champions League. The number of each Liverpool player was engraved on the back. He got his own No. 14, Since then Alonso has developed his own collection of his favorite watch brands and collections.

He also noticed that Ling Yun's favorite brand of timepieces is Breguet. Boss Xiaoling has worn all of them from the handed down series to the nautical series to the Type series, from the tourbillon to the perpetual calendar to the minute repeater and other complex functions. It integrates dozens of complex crafts, and every detail has been carefully polished by hand, showing the mechanical aesthetics that can resist gravity to the extreme.

Ling Yun was pleasantly surprised by his careful observation. Indeed, he fell in love with the brand of Breguet, not only because the founder Abraham-Louis Breguet was known as the "father of modern watchmaking", as many as 70% of the industry He invented the technology. No matter what brand, series or value, as long as the patent part belonging to Breguet is taken away, no watch can work normally.

"But I haven't seen the handed down series that you often wear on the market."

Ling Yun smiled, and said indifferently: "I fell in love with it at first sight at this year's Baselworld, and Breguet has not released it yet."

"..."

The two men chatted about each other's hobbies and collections, and there were endless topics. Alonso always had a soft and even doting smile in the corner of his eyes, but the absent-minded Boss Xiao Ling didn't notice it.

This time the dog slipped down and Ling Yun lay on the bed without any sleepiness, his mind was full of the story behind the engineer series that he had never worn in front of him.

He felt that there must be something wrong with him, and he should find some medicine.

The next morning, Ling Yun walked out of the room and sat down at the dining table, and a glass of milk just taken out of the microwave was placed in front of him.

Except for this cup of hot milk, Alonso will not ask him what he wants to eat now, but let him eat whatever he has done.

Ling Yun took a spoon and stirred the bowl of oatmeal in front of him, his eyes fell on the mobile phone next to him, and he didn't pay much attention to the content on it.

He was fully focused on the man opposite him who was holding a cup of coffee while flipping through the newspaper. The other party was obviously more focused than him, and he didn't even notice the eyes he cast over and then quickly looked away from time to time.

"I want to go for a walk in the suburbs today, do you want to go together?" Alonso suddenly raised his head and saw Ling Yun was sending a message on his mobile phone. He didn't know if he made a typo or changed his mind, and he kept pressing press the delete key.

"No." Ling Yun looked casual, and rejected the other party's invitation without thinking at all, "I'd rather watch a movie at home."

Indeed, he usually has limited rest time, so he finally spends a day at home. He would rather stay in his room and watch a movie than go out after a night of sleep.

Alonso smiled, and slowly put away the newspapers he had read, and stood up after drinking the last sip of coffee. Then, he put his hands on the back of the chair he was sitting on just now, and used A focused but meaningful gaze looked at Ling Yun: "Go."

"..."

With this gentle but undeniable tone, the good man at home started to turn around and put away the dishes after he finished speaking. Ling Yun frowned and thought for a few seconds, then looked at the busy figure in the kitchen with a helpless smile.

When Ling Yun finished changing his clothes, Alonso was putting on a harness for Wangcai, which would make the big dog feel more comfortable when wearing the leash for a long time.

"Let's go." Ling Yun raised his hand and was about to open the door, but put his hands on his shoulders, and then turned him 180 degrees with irresistible force: "Go back and add another coat."

London is approaching late autumn in November, and Boss Xiao Ling is going to wear a thin long-sleeved T-shirt and jeans to go hiking in the countryside.

Looking at the person next to him, he wore a light blue shirt with a khaki round neck sweater and a black jacket, with a tall and stylish figure, as well as hair and beard carefully groomed every day... Ling Yun also I remembered the scene on TV last night-someone got off the bus, and a group of female fans next to him held up his jersey and posters and screamed wildly.

Sure enough, an elegant mature man is already very capable of attracting the attention of the opposite sex, plus this mature man is very scheming and knows how to give himself extra points in details, who can bear it?

Ling Yun went back to the bedroom and added a slim-fitting jacket to make him look slimmer and longer-legged. He also took a SLR and finally took Wangcai on a trip not too far away to take some wild photos for his son. A perfect jungle photo.

The sun is not bad today, but the temperature is not high. Ling Yun wrapped up the jacket that wrapped him up. Fortunately, someone reminded him to add an extra layer of clothes when he went out.

Wangcai's normal activity range is only the lawn in the community, and he can only go out for activities at night when there are few people. When he goes outdoors, he looks crazy and sees everything fresh, a fallen leaf, an inconspicuous bug, A cuckoo's cry can make it jump for joy.

In late autumn, the mountains and forests are covered with golden fallen leaves. The sun shines down from the branches of the birch trees, and the fallen leaves are coated with a layer of gold, which looks like a fairy tale dream.

Ling Yun fiddled with his DSLR, taking pictures of the holy light among the branches and leaves, the fallen leaves under his feet, and his son's vigorous figure for a while, and finally, his camera unknowingly focused on the people beside him...

Boss Xiao Ling has excellent skills, aesthetics is also online, and the angle, light, depth of field and layout are just right. When I look back, I find that every shot I take is a fashion blockbuster. I can send it to "GQ" magazine without retouching.

Although Alonso didn't intentionally pose for him to take pictures, he didn't stop him from inadvertently sneaking shots to grandiose captures. Occasionally, he had to help the other party quickly, for fear that his boss would be too obsessed with his beauty and fall into next to the gutter.

Facing the direction of the sun, Alonso half-closed his eyes and chased after the big black-backed figure running freely: "Wangcai likes this place very much, and we can take him out for a walk when we have time."

Ling Yun put away the camera and walked beside him, and said disapprovingly: "Don't make it look so pitiful, I often take it out to play, okay?"

"Really?" Alonso looked at him and raised his eyebrows, "I haven't seen it."

"Of course you haven't seen it." Ling Yun reached out and touched the trunk of the birch tree next to him. "I had already started club work when you moved here, so I didn't have much time to take care of it. I was still worried about its depression. Relapse, luckily you moved in."

Alonso: "Speaking of which, I've been bothering you for two months, shouldn't I find a house and move out as soon as possible?"

Ling Yun didn't think about this question. Although it was said that the other party lived temporarily until he found a house, it didn't matter if the other party stayed there forever. The house is so big, and if it is empty, it is still empty.

After thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. The other party's tone didn't sound like a question, but a hint.Maybe he thought it was inconvenient to live under the same roof with other people, especially when someone wanted to visit...

Ling Yun didn't want to think about this question in depth, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with him, so he put on an attitude of not caring much, and said lightly: "It depends on you. If you have found a good place, you can do it at any time." move away."

Alonso turned his head and took a deep look at him. After that, the two of them didn't speak any more, and walked all the way in silence. The only thing in their ears was the rustling of their stepping on the dead leaves.

This place is a bit out of the way, and the weather is a bit cold. Looking around, there is no one else in the entire birch forest except the two of them and a big dog.

Ling Yun thought to himself, that is, the two men came out to pass the time. If he came to date with a girl in this kind of place, people would think he was trying to plot something wrong.

But the people next to him looked like polite and polite gentlemen, how could they plot evil?If there is, it is because they are plotting against him.

"What are you thinking?" Alonso suddenly broke the silence.

"I was thinking..." Ling Yun suddenly took a big step forward obliquely, turned around, stood facing him, and walked backwards, "Can you satisfy my curiosity?"

Alonso shrugged: "What kind of curiosity, let's hear it."

Ling Yun: "Why did you leave Liverpool?"

What kind of question is this? Why is he still asking something that the media has already picked up?

Alonso: "I suggest you read more news online."

"No," Ling Yun raised his head and looked at him, "I don't want to hear what they say, I just want to hear your answer."

"Because there is a conflict between me and Rafa (Benitez)." Alonso did not hesitate, and gave an answer that must be heavy news in the eyes of the media.

"What contradiction?" Ling Yun continued to ask, "Is he unwilling to give you playing time? Or is he trying to sell you to buy someone else?"

Alonso shook his head: "These things happened later. At the beginning, he thought I had a problem with my professional attitude."

"Ah?" Ling Yun never expected that the answer he gave would be so serious about his professional attitude, but he had never seen it in the media news.

"Why are you so gossip?" A pair of arms rested on Ling Yun's shoulders, and the force from the palm forced him to stop. At the same time, his back touched the bare trunk of a birch tree, and the back of his head was so dangerous. Did not hit directly.

"Cough," Ling Yun nodded slightly, cleared his throat to ease the embarrassment, "Why, as your boss, don't I care about you?"

Alonso gave him a sneer back, then walked around him and continued to move forward. Ling Yun was left behind by him, and after a few steps, he chased after him and asked persistently: "What do you mean by having a professional attitude? Are you Stop training or strike?"

Alonso ignored him, and walked forward on his own. His dark brown hair also showed a faint golden color in the golden leaves and holy light all over the sky. Heartbroken.

Ling Yun raised the camera, followed by a series of snapshots behind him, and then a big hand appeared in the viewfinder, easily snatching the camera from his hand.

At this time, there was a goshawk whizzing and flying by in the sky, Wangcai jumped for life when he heard the sound, and chased him dozens of meters away in the blink of an eye.Alonso immediately raised his camera to capture the stretched posture of the German Shepherd and the birds spreading their wings in the sky.

Ling Yun stood beside him, still thinking about the topic just now: "Or is it simply because he no longer trusts you?"

"Crack"~"Crack"~

The sound of the shutter made Ling Yun's tightly furrowed brows wrinkle. Alonso turned the camera and took a photo of his face.

Change the angle "click" "click", and then change the angle...

Just like he took pictures of others just now, they also snapped more than a dozen consecutive pictures of him, and every one of them wanted to stick the lens to his face. Ling Yun felt that based on the clarity of his camera, the other party probably wanted to take pictures of himself Pores on the face.

But Boss Xiao Ling was born beautiful, and he was never afraid to expose his perfect handsome face to the camera at close range—it doesn’t matter, he was born with a golden spoon, and he didn’t need to rely on his face or rely on it. talent to eat.

Ling Yun glanced at the person next to him, and found that the other person was bending down and half squatting, looking up at him with the camera, but looking at it from his own angle, he held the camera and pointed one eye at the viewfinder. The posture is more like a scene worthy of being included in the camera.

Ling Yun suddenly realized that it was just a small talk between two people, and whether his questioning violated the privacy of the other party a little bit. Although he was unconscious, this kind of behavior was still very impolite.

At this time, Wangcai in the distance saw that they hadn't followed for a long time, so he turned his head and barked at them twice. The deep and deep voice of the big dog echoed in the endless birch forest.

Ling Yun bit his lip, said two words softly, then turned around and walked towards his son with big strides.

What he said was, "Sorry."

Apologies for pressing questions that people didn't want to answer just now.

Alonso squinted his eyes and looked at the person in front. Although the figure of the young man was a little thin, it was not without strength.

Ling Yun lived a lazy life at home and lacked exercise, but his well-proportioned body seemed to be shaped by some kind of exercise all year round, but he didn't run, swim or play football, Alonso couldn't figure it out What sports does he like.

"In March 2008, the UEFA Champions League match between Liverpool and Inter Milan," Ling Yun felt that he had gone far away, but before he had time to look back, the other party's voice quickly appeared behind him, "That is The first conflict between me and Rafa came when I told him I didn't want to go to Milan with the team."

"Ah?" Ling Yun turned around, and when he looked at the other party, his eyes were full of shock and disbelief. He never expected that the incident would be so explosive from the very beginning, and he guessed half of it right with a casual joke just now—— Alonso is really going to strike.

And it's such an important game as the Champions League knockout round!

"You...you're kidding me." Ling Yun rolled his eyes, always feeling that the other party was just entertaining himself.

Alonso held his camera in one hand, and raised the other to put it on his shoulder, so that this person would not stand still or run around, asking him repeatedly what he didn't want to answer, or what he didn't want to tell him. However, he was still angry without telling him, and walked away without saying a word, his eyes seemed to have been wronged a lot.

He had no choice but to let people walk beside him in this way to satisfy his curiosity.

Alonso: "I'm not kidding you."

"Why?" Ling Yun really couldn't think of the reason. Even if he and the head coach had some disagreements about the game, it was impossible for him to clearly express that he would not participate in the game. "That's the Champions League knockout round. Nitus will be pissed off."

Alonso shrugged helplessly: "I didn't say I wouldn't go to the game, I just said I wouldn't go to Milan with the team. But you're right about one thing, he was really angry, very angry."

Ling Yun fell into confusion again. Not going to Milan with the team probably means not going with Liverpool. Because of away games in the Champions League, players usually go to the city where they will be playing one or two days in advance to adapt to the stadium and the environment. Alonso It probably means that I will rush to Milan to join the team before the game.

But why did he do this?

"I have a job of a very special nature. Sometimes I have to make some sacrifices. It is also a very important game, but in the end..." Alonso paused briefly before Ling Yun The hand on the shoulder was put down, turned to look into the other person's eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a serious manner after making up his mind: "Finally, I chose my family—my girlfriend that night... my ex-girlfriend is about to give birth. "

"..."

Hearing "girlfriend is about to give birth" - the word "before" was automatically filtered out by his brain - Ling Yun's first reaction was that the persona of this good family man in front of him really stood firm, no matter when, Even in the face of important games, he will put his family first.

After thinking about it, this is actually very understandable. His girlfriend came to England from Spain with him and was about to give birth that night. How could he leave her alone in Liverpool and go to Milan with the team?

No matter which responsible man would be able to do such a thing.

Alonso was reluctant to bring up these past events at first, but once he decided to speak out, his demeanor and tone became very frank: "I told Rafa that I can't go to Milan with the team, if my child is born , I will fly over to join everyone the next day. He turned me down angrily, saying he would not wait forever for any player and that Liverpool could win without me."

Although Ling Yun appeared to be listening carefully, with an expression of surprise and sudden realization, in fact, he didn't pay much attention to what Alonso said later, his thoughts had become a mess, and he couldn't figure out a clue. All feel strange.

"But in fact, I didn't have any prejudice against him because of this. Our conflicts stem from our different positions. He is a person who is very strict with himself and his players. I remember that we participated in the Club World Cup in Japan in 2005. At that time His father passed away in Spain, but at that time we had already entered the finals, he considered it again and again, and still made the decision to stay and lead the game. He hoped that his family could delay the funeral so that he could go back in time to mourn him after the game father, but his family ended up not doing that either."

This can be regarded as a model of strict self-discipline and strict treatment of others. Benitez can do this himself, and it is understandable to have high demands on others. The key is that Master Bei is such a well-known person with worrying emotional intelligence.
