The Young Lion

Even when leading 3-0 in the first half, Aldridge's expression in front of the TV did not change at all, but when Villa scored the first official goal of his career, Aldridge jumped up and stood in the room. Punching in celebration as if he was on the sidelines of the court.

As one of the first batch of star seedlings introduced by the club, Villa is the prince of the wild lion. If he is not younger than Ronaldinho, maybe the outside world can see Aldridge Villa more This has nothing to do with ability and talent, but a deep mentor-student relationship.

After finishing the celebration, Aldridge sat down again. He snatched the fruit from the stunned Andrew and stuffed it into his mouth. His gaze towards the TV suddenly softened, and the focus of the camera was locked: Villa, Aldrich seemed to be I saw the immature boy who walked out of the club community to the training base with him back then.

At Wembley, several players who were substituted at halftime got up and went to the sidelines to applaud Villa's goal.

Nedved and Larson exchanged something with a smile and nodded frequently.

They were able to witness yet another young player at the club start to shine and were genuinely happy for what they considered the 'little ones'.

In the past, the little guys watched them secretly with envious eyes, sneaked into the first team training ground to watch their training in their spare time, and occasionally asked for autographs in private to take a group photo.

Now, they play football together and become teammates fighting side by side. The club's unremitting youth training policy for many years has also made the relationship between players of all ages extremely delicate, forming an emotional hub, like Nedved. larson. Southgate. Naturally, he will shoulder the responsibility of being a model, actively guiding and helping young players grow up.

In the final stage of the game, Beckham scored a set-piece to help Manchester United get another one, but time was running out. In the end, Millwall defeated Manchester United 4:2 at Wembley and won the Charity Shield again. A good start to the new season for the club.

Two days later, the English football and entertainment media all set their sights on a hospital in Liverpool.

Aldrich stood outside the delivery room with his arms folded and said nothing. Many people gathered around him, including his family members and Melanie's family members, some were praying and some were whispering.

After a while, a person came from the outside, whose dress was completely different from the formal attire present. Aldrich turned his head to look, and asked in surprise, Why are you here?

The person who came was his player. Ronaldinho.

He was dressed in hip-hop and wore a peaked cap on his head. Maybe he felt very trendy,

Aldrich only felt that it was not mainstream.

Ronaldinho was usually careless, but seeing so many people present today, all in suits and leather shoes looked like big shots, his speech and behavior became a little more casual.

Coach Klinsmann gave me a vacation. I have nothing to do. I heard that the boss's son was born today. I'll come and see. Congratulations in advance.

Ronaldinho said in a low voice.

Aldridge sighed softly, but still smiled and said, Thank you. But the vacation is for you to rest, not for you to run around.

Hey, it's only been a two-hour flight back and forth, and I'm just sitting here quietly, waiting, watching, just pretend I'm air.

Ronaldinho really sat down on the chair after saying that.

Ronaldinho is the most special person in the pre-season preparations. The training is arranged separately, which is relatively easy. In addition, he was given an extra day off today.

The reason is that he didn't have much rest this summer. As soon as last season ended, he returned to Brazil with the national team for the America's Cup. Although he couldn't steal the limelight from Ronaldo and Rivaldo, the 3R combination was the first meeting at any rate, and he got his wish. He helped Brazil win the America's Cup, and then Ronaldinho participated in the Confederations Cup.

This year's Confederations Cup, European traditional strong teams are boycotting. The French team, the new World Cup champion, simply does not participate. Other participating teams also send 2 or 3 teams. Ronaldinho goes with the team as a leader , And performed well, shined brilliantly, not only won the top scorer and best player awards, but also overturned the original history, helping Brazil reverse the host to win the Confederations Cup.

Throughout the summer, the major European giants were rumored to have a scandal with Ronaldinho. Among the buying offers Millwall received, Real Madrid, the highest bidder, even offered a heavyweight offer of 30 million pounds.

If Millwall is willing to sell Ronaldinho and bargain with Real Madrid, it is estimated that it will be no problem to raise another 5 million pounds, and this transfer price will definitely break the 50 million just set by Vieri's transfer to Inter Milan The US dollar is equivalent to a world transfer record worth of 34 million pounds.

However, Aldridge resolutely rejected all offers for Ronaldinho, and Ronaldinho did not care about the transfer at all, even though Millwall did not offer him a new contract and salary increase during the same period.

Aldrich worried that Ronaldinho would feel lonely in this strange situation, so he sat down beside him and casually asked him about his summer itinerary.

At the end of the chat, Xiao Luo suddenly turned his head and asked solemnly: Boss, you are going to be a father, how do you feel now?

Aldrich subconsciously glanced at the delivery room, and then said softly: Suppressed joy, uncontrollable anxiety, uncontrollable nervousness, and a feeling that seems to be moved but not.

Uh, it looks complicated.

You will also experience it in the future.

Ronaldinho raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

It was not until the evening that Melanie gave birth to twin babies.

There was joy in the hospital, and Aldrich's arms trembled with excitement as he held the two wrinkled-faced babies

Uh, nurse, who is the elder brother? Who is the younger brother?

When Aldrich suddenly asked, everyone looked curiously at the smiling nurse.

Mr. Hall, the one you hold in your left hand is your elder brother, and the one in your right hand is your younger brother.

Arthur leaned in front of Aldrich, looked down at the baby in Aldrich's left hand with a smile on his face, tapped his head with his fingers, and said with a smile, Well, then you are Bert.

He looked at his brother again. Said, Then you are Earl.

Aldrich handed the baby to the nurse. Take it for an Apuka physical examination first.

He did not accompany the two sons with the nurse, but stayed with Melanie.

Ronaldinho followed the nurse curiously, staring intently at the two ugly little guys.

Newborn babies are basically not beautiful and attractive at birth. If that is the case, parents should worry about whether they will become ugly when they grow up

When Melanie regained her senses, she couldn't wait to see the two little ones, and the twins, who had had their physicals all right, were brought back to sleep peacefully in her arms.

Aldrich sat quietly on the head of the bed. Tilting his head and staring at his two sons, thousands of words were stuck in his throat, and finally he couldn't say anything.

Andrew came in suddenly, waved to Aldrich, and motioned for him to go out to talk, but Aldrich shook his head and smiled, Say what you want directly.

Andrew rolled his eyes and said, Many media have called me, and they want to spend a lot of money to buy exclusive news. These two little guys can make money just after they are born.

Aldrich chuckled and turned to look at Melanie. Asked what she meant, Melanie said weakly: Don't let them take pictures. They will be followed every day, why not let them get the news generously, so that the outside world will soon lose interest.

Aldrich thought about it for a while. In the UK, it is easy to prevent thieves, but it is almost impossible to prevent paparazzi.

Then let them come and shoot whatever they want without charging. I don't want to use my son to make money.

Won't you listen to the offer?.

Andrew had a helpless expression.

No, not interested.

Oh, that's fine.

Andrew turned and walked out with the phone in hand.

The next day, the biggest news in England came out.

Hall II is coming!

The supreme leader of heroic glory! Bert and Earl, the next generation of lion leaders born?

Good thing Fleet Street really likes to make a fuss.

Deliberately interpret the meaning behind the names Aldrich gave his two sons.

Burt, hero and glory, Earl, noble leader.

Combine the two and it becomes the headline of The Daily Star.

The Times is more reserved, publishing a photo of Aldrich holding a smiling son in each of his left and right hands, and then digging up old news below, publishing a photo of him holding a trophy in his hand for comparison.

As one of the most concerned public figures in England, people can see Aldridge's high spirits, aggressiveness, publicity and passion when holding the trophy in his hands, but the photo of him holding his two sons can be seen at a glance. Seeing that he was in happiness, his expression was soft and full of warmth, as if he had transformed from a kid into a mature man all of a sudden.

On the last day in Liverpool, Aldridge stayed at home all day, almost keeping close to Melanie to take care of the two babies. Even when they were asleep, Aldridge and Melanie still stared at each other without blinking. them.

When the night fell, Aldridge packed his bags and he was going back to London. The Premier League opener of the new season was three days away and he had to go back.

For more than two months, Aldrich and Melanie spent here the most peaceful and peaceful days since they met, but also the most peaceful and comfortable time in mind.

But before this parting, Melanie fell into a long silence.

She helped Aldridge tidy up his suit and suitcase, and when Aldrich went downstairs after kissing his two sons and put on his leather shoes by the door, Melanie finally couldn't restrain her inner emotions. Rushed to his back and hugged him.

Aldridge, let's go on like this, can't we?

Aldridge didn't turn around, lowered his head and sighed: The past two months is the life I've been pursuing, I'm with you, like a real family, but now, that time won't happen again, you have yours Career, I also have mine.

Can't you accommodate me once? Just this time!

But how long will it be this time? How long will I have to wait for you?

Ten years, no, five years, I don't want to give up, I really don't want to give up!

I know, so, I gave up. I'm sorry, forgive my selfishness, my time, and I don't want to wait for others.

Melanie burst into sobs, her cheek pressed against Aldridge's back, and she kept asking why.

Maybe from her standpoint, talking about a never-ending relationship with Aldrich would be enough, but Aldrich doesn't want to go on like this.

Aldridge gently held her hand, and said softly: My name is Aldrich Hall, I am the head coach of a club. Five years ago, I traveled all over Europe to search for football talents. I invite others with more than 300% sincerity, and face the world almost with a humble attitude of pleading. In the past five years, some people have left, some have come, some have betrayed, and some have stood firm. I am just a mortal and cannot resist Fame and wealth are better than vanity. Today, I don't need to look at other people's eyes, and I don't need to pin my success on others. When it rains, I want to marry someone. Stay as long as you want, instead of feeling sad for those who leave, I would rather show more sincerity and kindness to those who stay loyal. The world will not change for me, but I just want to shake the world in a simple way. From now on, the center of my world must be It's me, it's selfish and arrogant, but I just want to continue to be crazy, maybe, I just want to prove that those who leave me will regret it, my world will not collapse because of the lack of someone, I, Aldrich -Hall, I want to live unrestrainedly and domineeringly. Melanie, I will make my career continue to be brilliant, and you and I can have happiness together. The difference is that the person who will make sacrifices is not I'm sorry.

Aldrich let go of her hand, took his luggage, opened the door and left. (to be continued...) ()
