The Young Lion

Because it was already night, it would take about six hours to drive from Liverpool to London. Melanie’s next stop was to go back to London for work, so she and Aldrich drove to the airport. It only took one hour to fly back to London. As for her car I will let my younger brother come to the airport to drive home.

On the way to the airport, Aldrich just looked out the window without saying a word, with a calm face after he got in the car and booked a ticket on the phone.

Hey, are you angry?

No.

Liar, I can see it, it's inexplicable.

Melanie was also a little upset, she knew that the reason for Aldrich's departure just now was a fabricated one.

Aldrich turned to look at her and asked, Did you know that Victoria would come with Beckham?

do not know.

real?

Of course it's true. She said that she had a new boyfriend recently. As for who she didn't tell us, today she said that we had dinner together. I think she just wanted to keep some mystery. I didn't expect it to be Baker. Ham, they're a good match, aren't they? Do you really have a problem with Beckham?

Aldridge turned his head and looked out the window again in silence.

Does he have issues with Beckham?

He doesn't think there is, and can only say that the two have disagreements in the temporary subordinate relationship at work. Beckham left, and Aldrich continued to work as usual. They are both adults. Occasionally meeting in social situations and saying hello politely, it only proves that there is no personal relationship between the two of them.

Aldridge didn't come to chase stars, so he didn't have to try to curry favor with Beckham. The two have nothing in common, and it is easy to be misunderstood if they get close to any other team player as Millwall coach. He's the boss, after all, with a checkbook in hand.

The rumors of a contradictory between the two were all hyped up by Fleet Street.

Aldridge was also sarcasm for this this year, because Beckham won the championship with Manchester United.

Why don't you talk again? Hey, do you have a conflict with him? The atmosphere of your chat with him just now is fine.

Aldridge sighed in dismay: I have no conflicts with him, but I am not friends with him, and I am not interested in being friends with him. If Victoria attends any event with him in the future,

You don't invite me. I won't show up.

Melanie frowned when she heard this, and said loudly: From what you said, it is clear that you have conflicts with him!

Melanie, let me just say it again, the problem is not me and Beckham, it's Victoria! It's her playing tricks! I will not be used as a pawn, she is your friend. I respect her, but if she wants to If you continue to earn my respect, please treat me with equal respect!

Melanie parked the car on the side of the road, turned around, and said angrily: What's wrong with Victoria? She wants to have a meal with us, just like normal friends. What's wrong? Are you and my friend together? Is it difficult for you to eat?

Aldrich sneered: Is it as simple as eating? Why today? Why in Liverpool? Why is it the kind of high-end restaurant with countless paparazzi at the door? She has her purpose, and she is playing tricks on me. And you! Beckham foolishly thought it was just a relationship, if he hadn’t become famous in Manchester United, he thought Victoria would like him?”

Melanie paused. Frowning hesitantly, he said: It's normal, Beckham is as famous as her. I don't think there is anything wrong with Victoria choosing him.

Aldrich nodded and said: I'm not interested in other people's love life. Whether Victoria and Beckham are together has nothing to do with me. But her behavior makes me feel that I am not respected. Melanie, she and Beckham You're different, you're different than any other hot girl, and I'm talking to you about it now, without prejudice, I'm just stating my opinion as it stands.

Okay, tell me, I'll listen, if you talk nonsense, I won't spare you lightly.

Melanie folded her arms and stared at the man beside her.

After a moment of silence, Aldridge said lightly: Do you know how the outside world evaluates the Spice Girls?

Just say what you want, don't try to mislead me with language skills.

Well, the outside world thinks that Victoria is the least able to sing among the Spice Girls. I think this evaluation is objective and fair. At least, she is by no means as good at singing as you and the other three members.

Melanie curled her lips and couldn't refute.

This is true. Judging from the albums released by the Spice Girls, there are almost no parts sung by Victoria among the songs that have been popular. Even if there are, they have no characteristics. Instead, the other members have different Singing features.

But it cannot be denied that Victoria is not important in the Spice Girls. Her image and expressiveness can make the Spice Girls more distinctive.

This is easy to understand. Not every member of the orchestra is a person who can sing and sing. Some of them belong to singing supporting roles, but through other methods, such as stage image, performance methods and other characteristics, the band becomes more popular.

This is also one of the reasons why the Spice Girls have achieved great success since their debut. They each have their own characteristics, and their nicknames are different. Fans may not like one of them, but they may like the other. Their rich images make them Can get the resonance and support in the widest range.

What she is good at is making a show. On stage and in activities, that's what she is best at. So, today she made the show into her life.

What's the meaning?

Aldridge sighed softly, and said earnestly: I, the coach of Millwall, David Beckham, the supernova of Manchester United, you and Victoria, the most popular member of the girl band now. The four of us are sitting at a dining table, and Me and you, Victoria and Beckham, what do you think will be the news in the newspapers tomorrow?

Melanie, who was obviously not very good at thinking about such things, muttered, What's the news about having a meal?

Aldridge pointed out his finger and said: First, football news, whether it is the meeting between me and Beckham or the just-concluded Premier League game as the background. The derived news will definitely sell the newspapers. Second, entertainment news. Me and you, Victoria and Beckham, of course the hype is going to be a hot topic. Three, what impact will it have? Millwall fans, Manchester United fans will be watching, Spice Girls fans will be watching, and at the same time Pay attention, the popularity of the four of us will rise! You will be in the eyes of the fans. Beckham and I will also be in the eyes of the fans. This is the most classic way of hype in which stars from different fields cooperate together In this way, we can achieve the goal of increasing the popularity of each other.”

This kind of hype is commonplace. Cross-border combinations such as singers and movie stars, sports stars and entertainment stars are very common all over the world. If such a combination does not have a utilitarian purpose, it is definitely impossible. This is the same reason that the third-version girls like to hang out with Premier League stars.

If most non-European fans look at Beckham who later became famous, they probably think that Victoria married Beckham because this woman took advantage.

But fans in England know that if Beckham hadn't married a woman named Victoria, he would never have become a super popular star.

Why?

Because the person who made Beckham quickly famous and has many fans, besides Manchester United, is also Victoria.

How many people paid real money for a Spice Girls record? It is on the order of tens of millions!

Besides, when the Spice Girls became popular in England. Beckham hasn't even made his debut in the Premier League yet, but now, the Spice Girls are planning to enter the North American market, and the album has created a sensation in many European countries.

The attention and popularity that Victoria brought to Beckham, the behind-the-scenes operation of the Premier League's commercialization of popular stars. Coupled with Manchester United's wealthy background and personal performance, Beckham quickly became an international star. Without Victoria, Beckham will never reach the height of popularity in history.

Melanie said puzzledly: Even if Victoria is indeed for this purpose, then what's wrong? Anyway, you have already been famous, and if you are more famous, what's the difference?

Aldrich reached out to caress her face, stared seriously at her flustered eyes, and said in a deep voice: I'm with you, I don't ask your fame to bring me anything, if you think the same as Victoria, I hope that I can help you increase your popularity. I can be sure that our being a star couple will definitely benefit your career, but I will refuse. This will hurt my career and my future. I will not appear every day The news and entertainment page makes people talk about my topics other than football. Do you know why? Because football is very simple, maybe some players value fame and fortune more, but I always believe that more players have admirable professionalism. What I pursue is pure success on the green field, and I admire, admire and need this kind of players the most. I will not strive to become a star beyond the scope of football, which will make me and the players drift away. When others start to pay attention to my hairstyle, my clothes, my life with my singer girlfriend, what will my image in the hearts of the players become? Am I still a head coach? Can I still make the players trust me? No matter how you explain it, most people would think that I was distracted by things other than football.

Melanie pursed her mouth, her eyes suddenly became moist, and tears rolled down her face little by little.

It occurred to her that yes, she was different from Victoria.

She has worked hard step by step since she performed vocal music in elementary school. She has a place in the Spice Girls. The important thing is not how good she is.

She walked with Aldridge before she became famous. I can't say how famous Aldridge was at the time, but at least from the family background, she is more like an ugly duckling.

Aldrich never had a utilitarian purpose in his relationship with her.

She doesn't want this relationship to deteriorate, just for show? To hell with it.

Just thinking of this, she suddenly felt that the man in front of her moved her.

Putting her hands around Aldrich's neck, she choked up in his ear and said, I'm sorry, I really didn't know Victoria would arrange it like this today. Aldridge, you don't hate me, do you?

Aldrich held her face in his hands, gently wiped away her tears, and said softly: It has nothing to do with you, everyone has their own choice, I just don't like being used by others. Can you stop crying? Not at night Eating and crying are also physical work, very tiring.

Melanie laughed through her tears, and then gently stroked his face and said, Go back to London tomorrow morning, and I'll be staying here today.

After thinking for a while, Aldrich said: Just now Andrew called me to go to his company. I plan to go tomorrow morning. I'd better go back tonight.

Melanie looked at the time, there was still some time before the plane, she drove the car to an empty back street near the airport, after turning off the lights, she couldn't wait to throw herself into Aldrich's arms, kissing his mouth passionately .

What are you doing?

I just can't help but want to have sex with you. We haven't tried it in the car yet.

The excitement factor of the bloody Manchester United game in the afternoon still hasn't dissipated in the body, and Aldridge doesn't care about it anymore, caressing the delicate body in his arms wantonly, kissing passionately, and taking off her sexy lace black underwear...

After sleeping for more than half an hour on the plane, the two went back to London and had dinner first, then went back to Aldridge's apartment together, went straight to the bathroom, hugged each other naked under the hot water, and the lust once again Burned, the skin was not separated for a moment, Aldridge carried her into the bedroom, got into the bed and continued to possess each other endlessly...
