[Football] The system upgrade task of the dream pitch

"Oh, just now Zhu Yu and I discussed the next World Cup."

In the face of Ozil's inquiry, Benzema shrugged and gave the answer.

The German shook his head: "He still has hope."

Benzema put his arm around Ozil's shoulder: "Who said it wasn't?"

Before Zhu Xu and Messi retired, they won all the national honors for Argentina.

They have won more than one World Cup.

"Thinking about it this way, what we thought at the beginning has really become a reality."

"Being in the same era as Zhu Xusheng, having to look at his back is indeed a desperate thing."

"But it is also our luck to meet him on the field, as a partner and as an opponent."

Ozil's voice was not loud: "What's more, we are still good friends off the court."

The Frenchman and the German clinked glasses: "So you see, I can't bear to discourage Zhu Yu..."

Ozil smiled helplessly this time.

After all, Zhu Xu's younger brother, Zhu Yu, is also a player with the same amazing football talent as his brother.

In the club and the national team, Zhu Yu is also the one who shoulders the responsibility.

It's just... Basically every time he meets his brother, although Zhu Yu will explode, Zhu Xu will usually act crazy.

Well, then there is no more.As a bystander, Ozil felt that "ah, it's not easy for Zhu Yu not to leave a psychological shadow for so many years".

"It's not easy for them to get to this point."

Ozil looked at Zhu Xu who was talking with the guests not far away, and Messi beside him said.

Benzema didn't look at it at all: "Oh come on Mesut, don't say it like you reacted calmly when we first found out about it."

He was talking about more than ten years ago, when Real Madrid players who had a very close relationship with Zhu Xu knew about their beloved little prince's love affair with the king of Barcelona next door.

Well, Benzema doesn't want to recall his own reaction and what he did at that time-it's too dark history.

"It's not my fault."

Ozil shrugged: "At the time, it was a lot more shocking than the news that Cristiano and Ricciardo were together, okay?"

"The two of them are so obvious, I wonder if they're not together."

"Speaking of which, I'm surprised that they haven't held a wedding until now, and instead let Piggy and Macy take the lead."

said the Frenchman.

"Who knows."

The Germans looked meaningless.

They didn't go on to discuss more, after all, today is Zhu Xu's wedding, and it is not easy for the two of them who are Zhu Xu's friends and also the "best man" today at the banquet.

………………

"what happened to you?"

On the other side, Guti noticed Juan who had been separated from his female partner and looked a little bit wrong.

"Jose?"

It was obvious that Juan was completely inattentive, and he didn't even notice Guti who was approaching him at all-he was taken aback when Guti called him.

"No, nothing."

Juan waved his hands in a panic.

"...Well, I just feel that the relationship between the captain and Messi is really deep."

However, under Guti's calm gaze, Juan still said it.

"But that's the captain... being invited to the captain's wedding, even now that the wedding is halfway through, I still feel unreal."

Juan shrugged: "Yes, it feels complicated and a bit weird."

"After all, he is the captain."

He added in a low voice.

He was telling the truth.

Although it was vague, that was indeed what Juan was thinking at the moment.

Like other guests present, he witnessed the combination of Zhu Xu and Messi.

But when the banquet started, when Zhu Xu and Messi were walking among the crowd, Juan, who never took his eyes off Zhu Xu, became distracted.

He remembered a lot.

For example, Zhu Xu's tweets about Messi.

What impressed me the most was a photo taken by Zhu Xu, a photo of Messi playing football under the sunset, with the words "You are the most shining".

But there is something else.

He was dissatisfied and dissatisfied when he first heard about the person "Zhu Xu", and he was subdued shortly after meeting him in Castile, and later he wanted to get closer, and then it turned into a feeling of admiration, envy and admiration...

He recalled the determination he made when he left Real Madrid, and those days when he learned how to cook Chinese food; he remembered that after returning to Real Madrid, he worked hard with Zhu Xu in every game, and won the championship under Zhu Xu's leadership. Every trophy for him; of course, the days when he became Zhu Xu's vice-captain and got closer and closer to Zhu Xu.

Green turf, bright lights, tsunami-like applause and cheers... and the handsome smiling face of the Real Madrid captain.

They all retired later.

Later, Zhu Xu was going to marry Messi.

Although Juan already knew the fact that "my captain and Messi next door are a couple", Juan also received a wave of shock when Zhu Xu retired and came out as gay, but nothing compares to the huge impact that invitation had on Juan .

Oh, they are going to be together.

Juan felt that he hadn't really accepted the fact until then.

After that, the strange waves in his heart, which made him inexplicable, have continued until now.

When his little childhood sweetheart Veronica was still by his side, Juan instinctively didn't want her to worry, and kept carefully concealing the subtleties in his heart.

Until just now, Veronica was taken aside by other ladies to talk, and Juan, who was alone, showed a little bit.

Unexpectedly, it was discovered by Guti so soon.

"you……"

Goodie laughed.

"You're just a little bit reluctant to part with Piggy, and by the way, a little bit envious of Messi, whom Zhu Xu values ​​so much."

He supported Juan's shoulder: "Juan, speak clearly—I almost thought you liked Zhu Xu!"

Guti knew Juan very well.

The retired Real Madrid vice team in front of him, like himself, came from the Real Madrid youth training, loves Real Madrid deeply, and at the same time... is also a fan of the retired Real Madrid captain.

Not to mention the rumors about Juan’s “star chasing” behavior that Guti had heard when both Juan and Zhu Xu were young, after Juan returned to Real Madrid, after he became Zhu Xu’s deputy team... Juan's every move has secured him the position of "Zhu Xu's number one fan".

So Guti felt that he could fully understand Juan's absent-mindedness.

The fanboy saw the male god getting married, and the captain, whom he admired completely, married his old rival... With all kinds of emotions superimposed, it's no wonder that Juan is in complicated moods.

"Be happy. Think about it, no matter what, as long as your own thoughts remain the same, Zhu Xu will always be your friend and your captain, isn't it?"

Guti enlightened Juan.

He felt that this child, oh well, Juan, who is almost forty now, is no longer a child, this junior, is indeed worthy of comfort.

Guti left after confirming that Juan's spirit was better.

But he didn't notice that after he turned around, Juan's face changed for a long time—although, Juan soon regained his composure.

Compared with them, Kaka and Cristiano are much more comfortable and comfortable.

They've even started discussing where to spend their next honeymoon.

Guti, who had no intention of passing by them, didn't want to say anything.

Then he ran into Raul and Morientes who had a good chat.

Guti: ...

He really laments his luck today.

"Brother Jose."

Little Fernando was calling him.

The midfielder, who had just retired and had a completely successful career as a player, was calling his brother Jose.

Guti was a little surprised.

After all, compared to Fernando Jr.'s super coquettish elder brother, Fernando Jr. doesn't call himself that so often.

This even reminded Guti of the time when he had just retired.

On a sunny afternoon, little Fernando, who came to visit, called himself the same.

Then Fernando Jr. said something that surprised Guti—Fernando Jr. came to him to apologize.

Little Fernando said that he was too awkward and too horny before, and I am sorry for the prejudice against Guti in the past.

Guti could understand what Fernando Jr. meant—after all, at the beginning, Fernando Jr. didn't like him very much.

Guti actually didn’t care much about these things. To him, Fernando Jr. behaved like a little hedgehog when he saw himself when he was young, but it was just a boy’s rebellious adolescence.Originally, after that time passed, little Fernando's attitude towards himself was not so strange.

But he didn't expect little Fernando to take these things so seriously, and even came to apologize.

"What nonsense."

Back then, Guti smiled and patted the tall boy on the shoulder—even though little Fernando was an adult at that time, but at that moment, in Guti's eyes, he was still a boy.

"I'm not mad at you."

"Who made you my baby brother like Piggy?"

"So, there's no need to apologize."

Back then, after being surprised, Guti spoke very seriously, and he knew that Fernando Jr. also listened to it.

What Guti said is of course true, after all, this is also the child he watched grow up.

"What's the matter, Fernando?"

So every time, when facing little Fernando, Guti's attitude is always gentle and intimate, and it is the same this time.

…………

The conversation between Guti and Fernando Jr. was not too long, but both were quite satisfied with the conversation.

Later, when the banquet was coming to an end, Guti saw little Fernando and Zhu Xu talking together from a distance, and couldn't help laughing.

The children he loves have grown up and each has their own happiness.

And their relationship remains close and will not change.

So fine.

Guti thought.

Of course he didn't know what Zhu Xu and little Fernando were talking about.

"You're not stupid enough yet."

Zhu Xu said unceremoniously to his younger brother.

"I went to see brother Jose when he just retired, and you know that, and that's what he said."

Little Fernando didn't care.

"That's my brother José, too."

He answered very quickly.

He looked at Zhu Xu, and many thoughts crossed his mind.

He was still young back then, but what he saw at that time, the appearance of Guti to his own father, he saw deeply in his memory until today.

That was the root of his brooding.

But later, in the eyes of little Fernando, Guti's appearance to Redondo was different from that of the past.

Such a change, coupled with the fact that everything has been fine all these years, is enough to make little Fernando completely relieved a long time ago.

And today, when little Fernando met his brother José at his brother's wedding, of course he would do what a younger brother should do.

"What are you talking about?"

The sudden appearance of Messi interjected into their conversation.

"It's nothing."

Little Fernando and Zhu Xu spoke in unison.

Messi looked at the two with some doubts, but he didn't delve into it.

Because Zhu Xu had already held his hand, ready to leave little Fernando and leave.

"Tsk tsk, brother, you really don't want a younger brother when you get married."

Little Fernando shook his head and joked.

"No, I'm here because my parents are looking for Zhu Xu for something."

Before Zhu Xu could speak, Messi had already started defending him.

Messi is telling the truth, he is indeed Zhu Xu's biological parents, and there will be something he wants to say to their son.

"Even if there is no such stubble, my brother will do the same."

Little Fernando spoke with a smile.

"What do you know."

This time, it was finally Zhu Xu who spoke.

"I'm with Leo, isn't it normal not to take you?"

He shook hands with Messi and showed it to Fernando Jr.: "After all, today is our wedding."

Zhu Xu looked at Messi, the lover who stayed with him in this mission world, and then looked at little Fernando, the younger brother he had always loved, and the smile on his lips grew bigger and bigger.

"And I'm going, ready to start the rest of my life."
