ball magic

2001年12月24日，凌晨5点57分。

Our long-lost old friend Andy Reaser is in the car, staring at the century-old house that has turned on several lights, bitterly biting a sandwich.

This is enough to see his bad mood, but the current time should also allow everyone to understand why he is in such a bad mood.

He complained: "Today is Christmas Eve, and today is also a holiday! But why did we come out of our house and squat here at four o'clock in the morning?"

As his partner, Seth has long learned the important survival skill of "into the left ear and out of the right ear", and also learned to use "silence is golden" as his life motto.

So he just gnawed on his hot dog and drank hot latte without sugar. Even he looked at the old house in the distance with a somewhat leisurely gaze, and the rest were all envious.

When will he be able to live this kind of life?

But Andy is still complaining: "Why are we eating these today? I should be sleeping soundly at my house, and when I wake up, I can go to my parents' house and have a big dinner!"

Seth looked at him: "Do you want to sleep through the night? Dude, I don't think that's a wise decision."

Who cares about that!

Seeing Andy's angry little eyes, Seth smiled and said, "Because of overtime pay? Because of the headlines? Because... oh, it's the dog barking! It was Bart who found us!"

More than just discovering them?

The brave ex-military dog ​​had once again spotted their location and was now barking at them.

But Seth didn't care whether the dog regarded them as enemies at all. After he put the coffee cup away, he pressed the shutter desperately, but the object was not the dog, but looked at Zheng Zheng with a smile. their Hughes.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, it is the morning training time for the Manchester United chairman today.

The reason for emphasizing "today" is that he usually wakes up earlier.

Seth's doubts were quickly answered, because he saw Raphael's figure, and he tied his hair into a ponytail. At this moment, he seemed to have sensed Bart's warning, and looked in their direction.

"Perfect!" Seth applauded for himself!

Although he didn't check it, he knew that he had captured a perfect shot, it was a perfect glance, and that cold and sharp gaze made him just want to say——

So Raphael!

At this moment, Raphael had already withdrawn his gaze, and whistled to Bart.

Bart stared at the car not far away for another look, and then obediently returned to the owner's side, but its tail still swayed uncontrollably.

Run, run, run, it wants to sprint!

His master knew it too well. After smiling at him, he looked at his father and asked provocatively, "Do you want Bibi?"

Bart has an instinctive reaction to "Bibi", because its little master Louis often "bibi" with it, and now his two masters are going to compete?

Hughes was amused by his son's proposal, is this Bibi?

This is clearly trying to bully him!

But Hughes still agreed, but there is a premise: "It's not impossible, but we are more endurance."

He just participated in this year's London Triathlon, and his results are quite good.

As he waited for his son to respond, he heard his son shout, "Bart! Run!"

Bart was waiting for the order.

After hearing this order, it sprinted away, and at the same time, its owner ran out with him.

This is the happiest time of Bart's day!

Hughes's reaction was also a little slower, and it was only a little slower that he had to eat dirt behind his son, and gradually changed from eating dirt to eating exhaust gas.

When the father and son disappeared, Seth put down the camera, let out a sigh of relief, and then clapped hands with Andy: "There are overtime pay, and there are headlines."

Andy also laughed, and said to his partner, "Should we go back, or wait for this wonderful father and son to come back?"

Yes, this is Andy's evaluation of the acquaintance father and son.

But in such a cold London, the father and son doing morning exercises at 6 o'clock in the morning, isn't it weird?

Seth thought for a moment and said, "I'd like to wait until they come back. That way there's more to write about, and I can try to interview them. I mean if they agree."

Interview with Raphael?

If the guy would agree, this would be an exclusive interview.

If they hadn't been invited to the villa by Raphael in the summer three years ago, Andy would definitely complain that his partner was whimsical, but now?

Isn't it just waiting, they wait slowly.

They waited for more than half an hour, maybe longer, before they saw Bart sprinting back first, but he was obviously very tired, and after seeing their car, he just gave a brief "bark".

Behind it, is Raphael.

He looked so relaxed, so relaxed that it seemed that this half-hour morning jog didn't make him break a few drops of sweat.

But this is also normal, Andy thought, because the weather is so cold now!

After returning from victory, Raphael glanced at Hughes who was maintaining his own rhythm behind him, and then walked towards the car that interested Bart a lot.

For the sake of Christmas Eve today, he felt that it was necessary for him to say hello to such a dedicated paparazzi.

But when he walked over, Andy and Seth in the car also became nervous.

"Fuck, he's coming!"

"I saw!"

But at this time, Andy reacted quickly. Although he reacted quickly, he just opened the car window and greeted Rafael outside the window: "Hi, Rafa."

Raphael raised his eyebrows when he saw him.

Of course he remembered them, so these were indeed his acquaintances.

Bart flicked his tail at this moment, and was about to follow his master, when Hughes called him back.

"Today is Christmas Eve, don't you have a holiday?"

This is a question from Raphael's heart.

It would be fine if it was normal, but today they can still be seen, which even made him have a little respect for these two reporters who have worked for the "Sun" for many years.

Andy smiled and said, "If possible, we didn't want to show up at this time, but fortunately we showed up, because this allowed us to take some pictures that everyone is interested in, and we can also greet you. Merry Christmas, Rafa."

"Thank you, I wish you all a Merry Christmas too, would you like to come to my house for a hot cup?"

The two paparazzi who were greeted by him slowed down before asking him: "Aside from something to drink, can I ask two more questions?"

Raphael was amused by his frankness. He glanced back at the old father, and saw that he was already squatting on the ground and rubbing Bart, as if he was completely uninterested in the conversation between him and the two paparazzi.

Since he didn't care much, Raphael turned around and said to the two reporters, "Yes, but I can't answer every question, such as my sister's."

Andy couldn't help laughing.

Are you interested in Veronica and Colin's romance?

of course!

But let him ask this famous "sister-in-law", what do you think of the relationship between your sister and Colin?

He is not so desperate, let alone squandering his friendship with Raphael.

Well, if there was such a thing as a friendship between them.

The two reporters thus entered the home of Raphael and Hughes.

After returning home, Raphael brought them coffee and hot tea according to their preferences, and as for Hughes, he was busy feeding Bart with water.

It was obviously exhausted and thirsty.

Andy and Seth looked at Bart like this, and then at the father and son in front of them, they were already in awe.

But after finishing Bart's work, Hughes went to prepare breakfast.

The chef at home has also gone home for the festival, and he will prepare the meals at home for the next two days.

After Hughes left, Andy said to Raphael: "We all know that you are good at cooking, when did you become interested in cooking? I mean that boys at your age cook, always There is an incentive."

"You're right," Raphael agreed, "There is always an incentive."

Just when he said this, he saw Byron floating down from upstairs.

With panda eyes on his face, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the reporters in the living room, as if he didn't know how they appeared, but then he walked to the kitchen, poured himself a glass of milk, and said "No Make my breakfast" before leaving.

Raphael looked at his back and shook his head angrily.

Why is he cooking?

Isn't it this fat man!

He was really fed up with the meals he prepared, was that for people?

But when he looked at Andy and the others, he spread his hands and said, "It's usually because the person in charge of cooking is not good at cooking. And I don't reject preparing meals for my family."

Andy could have dug deeper, but he didn't.

Because this question is too dangerous.

Think about it, is it appropriate to talk about childhood, motherhood, abandonment, and dependence when Christmas is approaching?

He didn't want his friendship with Raphael to end.

So he went on to ask: "It is said that Lord Hughes is good at cooking? Do you think you inherited it from him?"

Rafael smiled: "I think he should be the judge, but I guess so, because he's improving so fast."

Andy then asked, "So tomorrow is he going to prepare today's dinner, or are you guys together?"

Rafael thought for a while and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, but I think we'll do it together."

Andy then refrained from bringing the topic to the transfer, but his description was very clever.

"I heard that the Manchester United Fans Association asked His Excellency Hughes to hand over a gift to you, which made many people curious. Have you opened the gift yet?"

When Andy asked about this, Raphael laughed, and after listening to it, he said: "Don't you think this place is weird? Two, our Christmas tree is not decorated yet, so we will be very busy today Very busy."

Andy: "..."

After being reminded by Raphael, he finally discovered the problem.

There is indeed a Christmas tree in the living room, but it is indeed still bare. When he turned his head, he smiled at Raphael: "Does Your Excellency Hughes want to decorate it with you?"

Rafael spread his hands: "He might prefer to decorate it with Louis."

Both Andy and Seth were amused by his tone at the moment, and Andy continued: "In other words, today's big meal is more likely to be cooked by you alone?"

Raphael said: "Yes, that's it, I'm glad you realized it."

Since Raphael didn't open the gift, Andy didn't bring the topic back to Manchester United. He didn't even mention the World Cup, but the Christmas gift.

"We have seen many stars posting the game console you gave away on social networks. According to Mr. Alex Byron, you actually lost money by designing and manufacturing this game console?"

When he said the last sentence, he winked at Raphael.

Raphael was amused by his funny expression, and said: "At this stage and for a long time in the future, you may lose money, but I don't want to emphasize this point, because any new product will have such a stage.

And I have to stress that the love those guys have for consoles gives me the confidence that Byron is talented in this area, in fact he is gifted in many areas, which is probably why he always has to The reason for staying up late. "

Andy laughed and said, "So he just came out, did he stay up all night?"

Raphael said: "Yes, his normal state."

At this point in the interview, Andy and Seth exchanged glances before leaving.

Not to mention that they have stuffed their stomachs with fast food, but today's day is not suitable for them to stay and eat.

After they left, Raphael walked to the kitchen and asked Hughes, "Let's discuss the division of labor. Do you want me to decorate the tree, or in the kitchen?"

However, after hearing his question, Hughes frowned, as if aggrieved and said, "Can't we be together?"

Raphael: "..."

Well, anyway, the winter break is only a few days, and there is only so much time he can spend with Hughes.

The moment he nodded, he saw his old father showing a smug smile.

Raphael: "..."

Forget it.

For Raphael, this Christmas Eve is special because, like Louis, he can only surround Hughes.

Decorate the Christmas tree with him, cook with him, prepare lunch.

Raphael took the most important dish——

roast chicken.

He thought he could do the job easily, but Hughes actually called Louis into the kitchen.

Raphael's head got bigger now.

He could guess what Hughes was thinking, and he could only give him a helpless look, and then put a sports coat on little Louis as an apron.

The little guy rushed into the kitchen after changing his clothes. Raphael could only follow behind him with heavy steps, reminding: "Today's lunch and dinner are very important, you have to work hard."

Louis said proudly: "Louis is super obedient and cooks superbly!"

Then he rushed to the chicken that had been placed on the cutting board.

In order to make the sacrifice of this chicken worthwhile, Rafael had to spend several times his patience, teaching Louis how to prepare the marinade, how to massage the chicken, and some tips to make the chicken crispy on the outside and tender on the inside .

In addition, he still had to stare at his old father who was laughing or trying to steal his teacher from time to time.

Every time Hughes came to this time, he would look over innocently.

When lunch was ready, Raphael urged Louis to call out the lazy fat man who had stayed up all night.

When Byron went downstairs with Louis with sleepy eyes, full of complaints and helplessness, he couldn't help admiring, "It smells so good!"

This time Louis became even more embarrassing, showing off for a long time.

Hearing that the roast chicken dish was made by Rafael, Byron immediately went back upstairs to get the hand-held camera, patted it for a long time, and muttered that he wanted to upload these videos to Foster for netizens to comment on. Whoever makes the roast chicken is better.

Raphael shook his head, and had to say that his adoptive father lived too far ahead.

After eating this sumptuous lunch, Louis couldn't wait to go out for a walk.

He had been coveting those swans for a long time.

Of course Raphael would accompany him, but he had a request.

"Can't take your duck."

Louis's dark eyes suddenly opened very round, and he looked at him in disbelief and said, "How can you not bring Duck, Duck also wants to swim!"

Raphael said blankly: "No, no, your duck will be bullied by the swan."

But Louis looked at him and said, "There is Rafa, Rafa can protect Louis, of course he can protect Duck!"

Byron immediately praised: "Very good, it makes sense."

This made Raphael give the fat man a hard look, because this British guy knew better than anyone else that those swans could even drive away two-legged beasts, and even chase and beat them, let alone a duck?

But after staring at the fat man, Raphael had no choice but to become the duck guardian.

After Louis said something like this, how could he run away without a fight?

After he agreed, Byron happily followed them with his video camera.

For him, watching Raphael's jokes is more important than catching up on sleep.

He got his wish!

Because it turns out that even Raphael is not omnipotent. In front of the Queen of England's swan, the small ball bully can't do anything to these lake bullies.

Before Duck Cole entered the water, he was already too scared by the swans to approach the shore of the lake. Even if Bart was intimidating and the Twolegs owner was in charge, it was useless.

Louis pouts, feeling extremely wronged.

Just when Raphael thought he didn't love swans anymore, he saw that he began to watch the swans hatch with great interest.

Childlike innocence is so cute, but Raphael just wants to shake his head.

He casually fed some mealworms to Ke Er Duck, and stopped behind the kid.

Instead, Byron felt sorry for the duck that was still in the cage, and came up with a coup——

The fat man took Cole Duck to the water's edge with its outgoing box, the fence of which turned into a protective fence.

The duck can finally go into the water!

The disadvantage is that he has to carry the cage all the time, and at the same time he has to be careful of those swans coming to peck him.

This real guardian of ducks and ducks only lasted for a few minutes, and felt that the old man was calling for help, and he couldn't hold on anymore.

Rafael took a hand-held camera and recorded the whole process of him complaining about Huba while supporting his old waist.

This is called tit for tat.

Swans aren't cute at all, but luckily Hughes also owns a horse.

After feeding the horse a Christmas carrot and a Christmas apple, Louis was finally happy, but he still had one small request. He wanted to ride the horse.

Raphael readily agreed.

There is only one reason for him to agree——

He didn't want Louis complaining about not being able to ride a horse when he was Owen's age.

For football, they actually sacrificed a lot.

Raphael could ride a horse, but he only knew how to ride a horse. It was his old father who really played around with Louis.

In the evening, Rafael personally prepared a dinner of traditional British roast chicken, salad, plantain and Brussels sprouts, as well as roast beef and skewers, which are essential for Argentine Christmas.

It was all for his family of course, not for the man who wanted to propose to his sister.

Yes, Colin also showed up with Veronica in the afternoon.

Raphael also got a gift, a gift they shared.

Raphael knew that Colin proposed marriage, not through the silicon-based people.

Before the winter break came, Javier mentioned it obliquely, and after he came to the UK, Hughes also reminded him tactfully, so Raphael knew that his sister was very likely to enter the palace of marriage with this man up.

After Raphael realized this, he couldn't tell what it felt like.

It's not because of his desire to control and protect his family, because in his memory, Veronica was bruised and bruised before she walked into that grave.

He doesn't know how it will turn out this time, but he knows what he can do.

So after looking at the gift for a few seconds, he silently accepted it.

And his sister was obviously happier because she gave him a kiss directly.

Everyone loves a Christmas dinner, and after the dinner, Veronica and Colin planned to leave together. (iii)

Raphael originally wanted to send her off, but when he saw that Colin had picked up the coat for her, he changed his mind.

After watching them leave, he came to the window.

He'd just wanted to see if the guy would be relieved to leave the house, but instead he'd seen Colin kissing under the mistletoe in front of the door.

Raphael: "..."

Don't look!

He hurried back to his room and called Aimar.

Because this should be their time.

His Bambi was obviously very well behaved and was already waiting for him when he called.

"So good? I feel like I should give you a reward."

Aimar asked with a smile, "What reward? Roast chicken?"

Raphael said clearly: "Did that fat man upload the video to the Internet?"

"You should have been more polite to Alex," Aymar said after correcting him, "but you guessed it, he did post both of your Christmas dinners online, Estella and Anna thought you did a great job, and they even gave you a thumbs up."

Raphael's mood was affected, but when his mother-in-law and Anna praised him, his unhappiness had disappeared by [-]%.

He deliberately said: "I could have cooked a big meal for them, but because some people didn't want me to go, they couldn't eat it."

Aimar was speechless: "How could I let you fly to Spain when the winter break is approaching? And, if you come to the house, they will prepare meals for you, and it is impossible for you to cook."

Raphael smiled: "So are you jealous of my treatment? Now let's talk about the original topic, I should give you a reward, do you want to know what it is?"

Aimar said very frankly: "I don't know, you are much more talented than me in giving gifts. No, many fans tease that you always give gifts in the same way. As long as you see a picture of a star, you can know that others have received it. what gift."

"Of course. After all, I have to give so many gifts every year. I can only choose from a wide range of gifts. It is not easy to treat everyone equally."

"Hahaha!" Emma laughed.

He didn't expect someone to beautify "cookies" into "equal treatment".

Look, someone's progress in these areas is still very fast.

Hearing his laughter, Raphael pretended to be unhappy and said, "Isn't what I'm telling the truth? Why are you laughing? Also, do you want my reward?"

Aimar managed to stop laughing, and fought hard: "Yes, of course, why not? What gift do you want to give me?"

"kiss."

"..."

As if knowing what he was thinking, Raphael chuckled and said, "And kissing under the mistletoe. If you were in England, by my side, I would definitely kiss you under the mistletoe, and you can't Reject me, so we will be happy for life.

Although you made me miss this opportunity, I still want to kiss you. "

After he finished speaking, it took a few seconds for Aimar's voice to come over.

Rafael didn't know what he was doing during those few seconds of silence, he was laughing, or maybe he was moved, but he still got Aimar's answer——

"You know I can't make it through, but I don't refuse this reward. But I also want to reward your sweet mouth, so guess what reward I have prepared for you?"

Raphael: "..."

He couldn't guess.

And at this time, the Silicon-based people suddenly popped up and said, "I'll give you a reminder, it's related to the New Year."

Raphael: "..."

He couldn't figure it out anymore.

Since he couldn't guess it, he directly admitted it.

Anyway, Little Curly didn't guess the reward he prepared, so they were tied.

Aimar smiled and said, "I knew you wouldn't be able to guess it. Grapes, how about I prepare twelve grapes for you?"

When he heard the answer, Raphael couldn't help laughing.

Because when the bell rings in the New Year, eating twelve grapes is the Spanish way of praying for good luck.

So he told Curly: "Although I always feel that this tradition is silly, I don't hate it, but I don't like it very much. If you really want to turn it into a reward, then we will eat it together."

Aimar laughed and said, "What are you thinking about? How can we eat it together? Then who will be the one to figure it out? Also, how do we divide it?"

"Who cares about that!" Raphael dissatisfied, "You should agree quickly, otherwise you are now an Argentine who is about to be expelled!"

But his protest only brought back Aimar's laughter.

Raphael snorted, but then he rolled around on the bed.

Say to Aymar, "This house is too big, and my room is too big. Guess what I'm looking at thinking about you?"

"What is it? And I must say, your mouth is really sweet today, so sweet that I really want to kiss you."

How could Raphael let go of such a good opportunity, he wants it now, hurry up and exchange it, immediately, immediately!

This made Aimar laugh a few more times, and after kissing him, he asked, "Tell me quickly, what are you looking at?"

"The fire in the fireplace, I lit it myself, and the fat man said I was a proper Englishman."

Aimar couldn't help asking: "What about you, what do you think?"

He has never talked with Raphael about this topic, but now that he thinks about it, who else can talk to him about it?

"I don't think much about it." Rafael emphasized: "It's not to perfuse you, nor is it that I don't want to talk about it, but I don't feel much about it anymore.

As you know, I want to be with my dad as much as possible, and I don't rule out playing in England, but I also love Argentina, and my heart longs for the World Cup and the England game.

I think it was doomed the moment I was born.

But now I don't feel bothered. Instead, I enjoy it, and I can even say that I am enjoying it. "

"Weird!" This is Aymar's evaluation, "This is the nickname Ayala gave you, but after tonight you will forget this!

But what I want to say is, look, he knows, all the Argentine internationals and your fans, even fans all over the world know - you enjoy it because you always have. "

Raphael smiled.

He was never afraid of being known.

Aimar then asked a few more questions, all about Luis.

As Rafael spoke, he became a little jealous of that brat, but when he protested, he heard Aimar say: "I changed my mind and planned to go to the airport tomorrow morning."

Raphael couldn't help laughing: "Honey, do you really want to kiss me so much?"

I just want to see you, Aymar thought.

But what he said was, "Go get a mistletoe wreath."

Raphael deliberately said: "And then?"

What else to ask then!

Aimar said loudly: "Shove you against the door and kiss you, of course. Now you can shut up!"

Rafael swallowed his laughter cooperatively, then got up from the bed as fast as he could, and left the room.

Byron was about to go upstairs when he saw him rushing down the stairs, then passed him, and then rushed out the door.

This made Byron's head full of question marks, is this guy's brain flooded?

December 12th, Christmas.

This was a day that Louis was looking forward to very much. After waking up in the morning, he started to cheer.

Because he has so many, so many presents from Santa Claus in his stocking!

And after breakfast, he can continue to unwrap a lot of presents!

But for Raphael, it was just an ordinary day.

Well, although he has a little extra expectation for this ordinary day.

And because of the "Sun" report yesterday, he saw many residents greet him when he went out for a morning run today.

There were even people with DVDs or cameras.

Naturally, he should be more polite to his neighbors. Raphael waved to everyone, and he and Bart quickened their pace.

When he came back, he saw Louis in pajamas urging him, "Rafa unwraps presents, unwraps presents, and Louis has a lot of them too!"

Raphael waited patiently for him to unwrap the presents in his Christmas stocking, then picked him up and said, "Okay, we can wash our faces, and we can unwrap the rest after breakfast, or wait for the par When the handbag arrives, take it apart."

He obviously said a correct name.

Because after hearing "Papa," he already let out a squeal of surprise.

Raphael ignored the ambiguous gazes of his father, adoptive father, and even the old housekeeper, and directly put the kid on his shoulders.

After they had breakfast, it was time for Louis.

The kid divided half of the presents and said, "We'll wait until Papa comes."

Raphael didn't think there was anything wrong with this at first, and even thought this kid was cute.

But when he saw "that fat man" sniggering and Hughes shook his head slightly, he realized something was wrong——

Aimar came to kiss him, and this brat unwrapped presents with him, wouldn't that just take up the time that originally belonged to him?

But now it seems too late...

A few seconds later, Raphael handed a gift to Louis without a trace, and after the little guy opened it, he handed it another one.

Byron: "..."

I don't even want my face!

Of course, enough is enough for Raphael.

After Louis unknowingly unwrapped most of the presents, he pointed to his huge pile of presents and said, "Do you want to unwrap them together?"

Of course Louis would not refuse.

When they finished unpacking these things, it was almost morning, and Louis was hardly happy about the presents at the end of the unpacking, and even put on a dull face.

And Bart lay quietly beside him, occasionally flicking his tail.

But when Raphael's cell phone rang, everything changed.

After Raphael left the kid behind and ran out, the other two adults in the house showed highly similar ambiguous smiles.

They looked at Louis who also rushed out after reacting and thought——

Although they welcome Paburido very much, they won't go out now, will they?

A few minutes later, Aimar walked into the room with Luis and Raphael in his arms.

And the big and small angels are still bickering.

Big one: "Louis, you're a six-year-old baby, come down quickly."

The little one: "It's not Luis who wants to hug, it's Pubrido who wants to hug Luis!"

Good rebuttal!

Byron thought Louis was the bravest 6-year-old boy in the world.

After Aimar put Louis down and exchanged greetings with the two adults, Rafael pulled Aimar towards the pile of unwrapped presents.

"It's spectacular." This is Aimar's true feeling after seeing these gifts when he approached.

Because it is so spectacular, it takes a long time to clean up the unwrapped wrapping paper and gift boxes.

Rafael said: "There is one more I haven't opened."

Now all the adults and children in the room looked over, and the child was even more curious: "Why did you miss one?"

Raphael said generously, "Because I made an appointment with Pabrido."

Aymar laughed because it was true.

He even wondered what the gift was.

When Raphael took out the gift, everyone found that it was just an ordinary small box wrapped in red wrapping paper and tied with a white ribbon.

But except for Louis, everyone knows its origin.

"Is this a gift from Manchester United fans to Al?" Aimar asked, but he looked at Hughes.

Hughes nodded with a smile, and said, "I'm also curious about what it is, because their expressions at that time were very funny."

Only Raphael said indifferently: "Although I don't know what kind of gift it is, I know what they want to achieve through it."

After being glanced at by Aimar, he added another sentence: "Of course, I am still very grateful to them for giving me this gift."

Byron shook his head, and then said loudly: "Take it apart, quickly, I want to know what's inside!"

Raphael warned: "No matter what it is, it is not allowed to be posted on the Internet."

This made Byron shake his head regretfully, but if this was what Raphael wanted, of course he would obey.

After Louis untied the bow, Raphael and Aimar unwrapped the wrapping paper together, followed by an ordinary black carton.

"Your gift, you come to open it." Aimar said.

Raphael nodded, and when he opened the box, he found an envelope inside.

Everyone: "..."

When Raphael opened the envelope, he found that it was not a stressful joint letter or a check, but two fishing licenses that were common in England and Wales!

The moment he saw it, Rafael laughed, and then handed one of them to Hughes and said, "I think I know why the fans asked you to pass it on."

Perhaps this is what they want to see.

Hughes also laughed when he saw the fishing license.

"Let's go fishing tomorrow," Aimar said with a smile, "We can go where you want to go, or at home, and I can compete with you who catches more."

Raphael: "..."

What gave him confidence, beginner's luck?

Seeing Raphael's mocking eyes, Aimar raised his eyebrows and asked, "You know that Valencia has a lot of coastlines, right?"

Raphael nodded.

Aimar said again: "I have a teammate who is good at sea fishing, and he has taught me a lot."

Raphael wants to tell him that sea fishing is not the same thing as this, and that
