The Young Lion

After losing the key game against Manchester United, the morale of the players in the locker room was very low after the game. On Christmas Day, everyone was not happy. Aldridge walked into the locker room after the game but clapped his hands and said: Man Guys, forget about the game, take a shower and change your clothes, then we will fly home and have a happy new year with your family. Don't let your family suffer because of this loss. Only today, we can completely put Treat football like work, go home, forget about work, be with your family, your children, be a good father, husband, or child.

Hearing Aldridge's words, the players recovered a bit.

Life still has to go on, especially in the happy atmosphere of the New Year, they should put their family first, which is understandable, Aldridge is not an unreasonable head coach, there is no need to be harsh on the players today Too many, losing to Manchester United in the away game, they were not absolutely sure of winning the game. There were many factors for the loss, but they couldn't put all the responsibility on the players, so that they would only increase the pressure.

While Aldridge was chatting with Ferguson, the Millwall players also took a shower in the locker room, changed their clothes, and then the whole team took the bus to the airport. Because today is a special day, they came to play The game is a charter flight, which can save time when going back.

After less than an hour's flight, the plane landed at the London airport. Aldrich disbanded the team directly at the airport, and at the same time gave them the Christmas gifts prepared by the club.

Aldrich returned to his parents' home for the holidays, and today the family was quite lively, except for his second brother Andrew. The eldest brother Barnett came here with his family of three. There are Rowling mother and daughter who are orphans and widows in London.

A sumptuous dinner is prepared at home. They are all waiting for Aldridge.

How do you feel?

Rowling sat on the sofa and asked with a gentle smile on her face.

Aldrich asked back in surprise: Of course it's very good, why do you ask?

Rowling pointed to the TV, which was still broadcasting the football commentary program of the Premier League game.

Aldridge sighed with a wry smile, and then said: Uh, actually, I don't really care. I think if I lost today's game a month ago or a month later, no one should ask me how I feel. How. Football has winners and losers. It’s a normal rule. Sometimes it’s just bad luck. There’s no need to worry about it. But today, I tried my best to forget about the game, but when I thought of the disappointed faces of the players, I couldn’t bear it. It's like I gave them a really bad Christmas, and I feel a little bad.

Your work is really hard. Your father said that there will be a game in three days, and you don't even have a vacation. I think if you feel uncomfortable, you should stop and relax. But you don't seem to have this space.

Aldrich chuckled, nodded and said, I don't have time. The job of head football coach is really stressful beyond imagination. My plan is to retire when I'm 50, otherwise my heart may not be able to take it. By the way, Jesse Where's the card?

Rowling glanced at the direction of the back garden and said, He's playing with your nephew in the back. The two little guys are about the same age. Bowen is a very polite kid, and it's easy to become friends with kids of the same age. Jessica is rare. It is a pleasure to meet such a child.”

Aldridge shook his head, and said in a low voice: In fact, I always thought that the education methods of my eldest brother and sister-in-law were wrong. They suppressed the child's nature too much. Bowen was only four years old, but he felt independent and stable. He never They can say the wrong thing, and they can’t be coquettish, so I really don’t know what they want to educate their children.”

Rowling brushed her blond hair around her ear with her right hand, and said with a pleasant smile, When you have children, you might understand them.

time to eat!

Mother Amelia yelled in the dining room, a typical civilian housewife. Even though she has been pampered for so many years, she still can't learn the way of a lady. She is definitely not like Aldrich's sister-in-law. Now Aldridge and his sister-in-law almost didn't say a word other than formulaic greetings.

Because he felt that his sister-in-law had become a bit contrived, as if she was deliberately trying to create an image of a noblewoman and a celebrity, but this kind of temperament was difficult to cultivate, so Barnett could never take off the hat of upstart.

Son, come here, sit down.

Arthur, who was not very good-looking, beckoned Aldrich to sit beside him. Hall's family didn't have such a high and low table arrangement, so Aldrich sat next to his father.

Arthur began a tirade, reviewing Millwall and Manchester United.

This made Aldridge dumbfounded, especially since Arthur proposed many incredible theories.

For example, are Beckham's sneakers and game ball Manchester United's secret weapon?

Since Beckham became famous, he has been the focus of the British football circle, and the news about him has also been talked about, one of which is: every game, he wears different sneakers.

While Zambrotta slipped and injured on the court, Arthur firmly believed that Manchester United did it on purpose!

In order to make Beckham perform better on that side, water was poured on that side of the pitch!

Aldrich and the others were rocked with laughter.

This is God's theory!

According to this, Irwin also slipped and fell in the second half. Is it also a conspiracy of Manchester United? Is it to abolish their own main force?

After a pleasant dinner, Arthur ran upstairs, and then came down with a lot of gift boxes, giving Christmas gifts to the juniors in the attitude of an elder, even Rowling was no exception. Barnett was two or three years older, and there was nothing wrong with Arthur treating her as a junior.

Rowling came to Bowen today to prepare a Harry Potter novel, and then gave some relatively ordinary gifts to others. Aldrich's was a tie.

Barnett spent a lot of money. He had prepared a lot of expensive gifts when he returned home. He chose a Cartier necklace and gave it to Rowling.

Neither Andrew nor Aldridge refused, and they happily accepted it. Aldrich was not interested in enjoying the mansion worth more than one million pounds. He felt that it was too troublesome and was far away from the training base. He still prefers to live in his own little apartment.

When night falls. Aldridge drove Rowling and her daughter home. Jessica and Bowen played all night, and she was so tired that she fell asleep on the back seat. Aldrich deliberately drove the car very slowly to avoid waking her up due to the inertia of the fast car turning.

I'm sorry to invite you rashly today. In fact, I don't know if this will embarrass you. After all, you are not familiar with my family.

It feels good. At least I know you, and Andrew. I also imagined what the Hall family, known as the upstarts in London, would be like. I was afraid that I would meet some domineering guys. However, Arthur and Ami Leah made me feel very warm, the Hall family turned out to be just an ordinary big family, you just have more money than ordinary people, but money hasn't changed you.

In previous years, Rowling spent Christmas at her sister's house. Although it is said that she is with her family, she is dependent on others. This year was different. Being a guest at Hall's house made her very happy, especially as her daughter Jessica made a new friend.

Rowling's working hours are relatively free, so she invited Aldridge to join her reading club when she was free. She also established a social circle in London. She can be regarded as some literati and refined scholars. Recommended, Aldridge readily agreed, he usually uses reading to pass the time when he has time, and it is better to have professionals who can recommend some reading materials than nothing.

On the way back to her apartment, Melanie called from the United States. She and the Spice Girls had a great success in North America, and they have already started planning a global tour after the new year. With less gathering and more separation, the Spice Girls' concert schedule is extremely terrifying. It is estimated that there will be at least dozens of concerts in various places throughout the year.

After returning home to take a shower and sleep, Aldridge couldn't help thinking about the Premier League three days later before going to bed.

Millwall will take on Arsenal at Highbury.

Thinking about it, he fell asleep. In a daze, he was awakened by a phone call. He rubbed his sleepy eyes to check the time. It was less than 5 o'clock in the morning.

After he picked up the phone, he heard Yiwen's voice, with a very solemn tone.

I'm at your door, open the door, something happened.

Aldridge sat up in a jerk. He was in pajamas, regardless of his appearance, and went downstairs to open the door. As expected, Ivan, who was wearing a warm coat, was standing at the door of his house.

It's not yet dawn, what can happen?

After entering the door, Yiwen said bluntly with no expression on his face: Within three hours, the headlines of the major newspapers on Fleet Street on the first day of the new year will be: Millwall Christmas Sex-Party!

Aldrich leaned on the sofa with his hand, his expression was wonderful, surprised, shocked, angry, and then suspicious.

Where did you hear the news?

I'm in charge of the club's publicity. I know a lot of friends. Someone told me about it half an hour ago. It's just a tell, and it's impossible to hide it.

Aldrich turned around, put his hands on the sofa and lowered his head, and asked in a deep voice, What happened?

At about 11 o'clock last night, a reporter followed and photographed a number of Millwall players entering a nightclub, and then went in disguise to inquire about the news at close range, and took a lot of photos. The general content is that, except for the Millwall players, other The men should be their friends, and the women present are basically call girls, more than 30 people!

Aldrich squeezed the sofa with his hands and sizzled, but his voice was soft and steady: Who is there?

I've looked at some pictures and the ones who have been photographed and can be identified are: Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard, Daniel Mills, Richard Wright, Ashley Cole, Paul Robinson, Joe Cole, David Dunn. But I haven't seen all the photos. It is said that there should be Vassell and Jeffers. However, I don't know how many people participated in the whole process or left early. know.

Aldrich repeated the names Ivan said one by one.

Finally, he lowered his head and laughed angrily.

So, all of them are native English players? That is to say, except for Parker, Carrick, and King, all other English players who are grown-ups go out to have fun. Oh, okay, really fucking good, I'm worried all day long about ruining someone, but you guys are nothing, but can't wait to have a good time, hehehe. There are more than 30 women, they are so rich?

Yiwen took a step closer and said softly: It is said that these call girls are paid several hundred pounds each, and the estimated cost per night is around 200,000 pounds. Don't you know?

Aldrich grinned coldly and said, Why do I know this? I really want to have a sex-party, and I don't look down on women who open their thighs for a few hundred pounds. If I want to play, I want to play the most advanced!

Upon hearing this, Yiwen turned her face away and snorted coldly.

Aldrich took a deep breath, straightened up and said apologetically, Sorry, I was angry just now.

They don't live up to their expectations, you don't have to.

It's because they don't live up to their expectations that I am even more angry! (To be continued...) ()
