Chapter 37 What a coincidence
Sonny Dean woke up from the soft and wide bed, and then found that someone seemed to have slept next to him. He touched it with his hand, and it was still warm.
Is Aofina back?
Just when Dean was confused, he heard the sound of the door opening in the bathroom of the suite.
A woman wrapped in a bath towel came out while wiping her hair - it may be inappropriate to say she was wrapped in a bath towel, because the bath towel was not folded and gathered well, but hung on the plump Firm breasts.
It's just that those twin peaks are so proud, so even though the towel is put on it, as long as the movement range is not too large, it can be hung up without falling off.
Dean moved his eyes upward from the other person's chest, and then saw the other person's face.
Oh no, not Aofina.
The looks are different, and the hair color is also different.
Ofina has chestnut hair, while the woman in front of her has golden hair.
What's her name?
Looking at this hot woman with blond hair and an unfamiliar face, Dean couldn't even think of her name...
Lisa? Teresa? Emily? Or what?
What the hell!
A naked woman appeared in my bedroom and I don’t even know her name?
Seeing Dean's stunned look, the woman smiled sweetly, threw the towel she was wiping her hair on the bed, and then raised her hand to gently take off the towel on her chest.
The piece of fabric slipped from her breasts and fell to the ground.
Revealing her naked and proud figure.
Then the woman began to pick up the clothes she had thrown on the ground last night and put them on one by one.
In fact, there are not many clothes. Except for a down jacket to keep out the cold, the remaining fabrics combined may not be as much as one of Dean's shirts.
The woman got dressed, picked up her phone and called a taxi for herself, then turned around and looked at Dean, who was still in a daze. Her eyes wandered back and forth on Dean's naked body, and then she praised: "You are indeed an athlete. Tsk... You were so fierce last night. I didn’t want to stay overnight, so I had to sleep at your place for the whole night. You really tortured me!”
Then she shook her phone: “ If you need anything next time, you can contact me and I can give you a discount. Anyway, you have my Instagram account." After that, she blew a kiss to Dean.
※※※
Damn it, it turned out to be the "chicken" I called last night...
Dean laughed to himself.
At this time, he had already taken a shower, was wearing a nightgown, and was sitting in the living room downstairs.
I thought it was a one-night stand in the nightclub last night...
But why didn’t I remember it when I woke up today?
Is it because you drank too much last night?
Fortunately, he participated in yesterday's game. He doesn't have to go to training today and just needs to rest at home.
Otherwise, between drinking and fighting with that woman in bed for three hundred rounds, Dean himself was not sure how much physical fitness and condition he would be able to show on the training ground.
On the TV directly opposite Dean, this morning's news program was playing.
What was reported was yesterday's news:
"...Yesterday's match between Tyne and Hurlingham FC was the highlight of this round of the Premier League..."
Hearing the news announcer say this seriously, Dean couldn't help but sneer:
Shit, when did our games against newly promoted teams become the highlight of the Premier League?
“…With Wang’s two goals after coming off the bench, Tyne defeated Hurlingham FC 4:1 at home. This was Wang’s first game on behalf of Tyne, and he scored two goals. The ball gave him a good start in his Tyne career..."
Dean picked up the remote control to change the channel.
The next one is Newcastle's local channel, which is playing the official announcement video of Wang Lie joining Tyne. Wang Lie is wearing Tyne's blue jersey, facing the camera and saying with a smile:
"...The reason why I chose Tyne is because I felt the trust and respect from the Tyne Club from top to bottom. I have no doubt that I will succeed here..."
Dean frowned , Wang Lie has been with the team for ten days. Is the local media information so backward? Are you still showing the official announcement video when he first joined the team?
He continued to change channels.
It is still a local Newcastle channel, but this time it does not show the video of Wang Lie when he joined. It is a talk show. The guests and the host are talking about yesterday's game:
"... I still remember what Wang said in that video when he joined Tyne, that he would try his best to bring victory to Tyne, and now he has done it! Look at the first ball, Vitini's pass. It was obviously not a good pass - I'm not criticizing Vitini, in fact his performance in this game fully deserved the honor of 'Man of the Match' - I'm just telling the truth, I didn't maintain the ball in this attack. Tiny really passed the ball wide.
"Then we saw Wang gritting his teeth to chase the ball - I watched the slow-motion replay of the goal after the game many times, and I could even clearly see the veins on Wang Lie's neck and temples... Because he was like this Fighting, so this was not a good opportunity, but it turned into a goal. In fact, Wang could not have run. Anyway, it is definitely not his responsibility that the attack failed..."
Host. Nodding in agreement with the guest: "I think all Tyne players should go home and watch the whole process of the goal over and over again, and learn from Wang how not to miss any opportunity in the game. So our current league rankings It will definitely be higher..."
Dean pressed the channel change button expressionlessly, and the host and guests' disgusting praise of Wang Lie came to an abrupt end.
The next channel is finally not local to Newcastle, but a satellite station for the whole country.
But the content is still related to Wang Lie.
The host and commentators are introducing the grudge between Wang Lie and Hlinham FC head coach Kofi Rost to the national audience:
“We have gone through the previous match records between the two, and there is indeed no What a special story. Whether Rost faced Wang or Soft United, his attitude was normal, neither excessively inferior nor arrogant and boastful... So now we guess that it may be the introduction of Helinhan FC. Regarding the matter of Wang, there was some kind of deep conflict with Rost, which made Rost angry at the king..."
The guest laughed and teased Rost: "Rost must have forgotten, Angry Wang's fate. "
The host said: "It may not be that he forgot. He probably felt that Wang was old and was unable to counterattack. Unexpectedly, Wang came off the bench and scored two goals in this game. Degree..."
"Wang may indeed be old, but I think he should still be able to fight back against those who actively provoke him. Speaking of which, after seeing Wang's two goals last night, you Do you know who the first person that pops into my mind is?”
"Who?"
"Of course it's Heldon! Haha!"
The host also laughed: "Hahaha..."
Dean. I didn't change the channel again, I simply turned off the TV, and then the harsh laughter completely disappeared.
Shit, I watched TV when I got up in the morning, and it was all about that old scoundrel...
Damn, he's going to be thirty-eight years old soon, and he's been kicked out of Soft United. Why is it still so popular?
Dean took out his mobile phone and scrolled through social media. Just like on TV, the local Newcastle community was basically discussing Wang Lie's performance in yesterday's game.
Some people were excited because of Wang Lie's two goals, while others were worried that this was just a comeback for a 38-year-old veteran. Some even began to hope that the team could achieve something better than relegation this season. ending.
What was slightly surprising to Dean was that in such a lively discussion, he did not see a few messages scolding him.
Obviously he wasted an opportunity in the game... and he himself knew very well that his performance after coming off the bench yesterday was not good.
As a result, no one in the local fan community criticized him!
He only wondered for a short while before he realized that this was because of Wang Lie's outstanding performance, which had become the hottest topic on the local Internet from yesterday to today. Everyone was discussing Wang Lie, just like Like on TV.
Who still has the interest and energy to discuss his performance?
Originally, before Wang Lie came, Sonny Dean had the highest salary in the team, and he was also the most valuable person in the team. He must be the focus of everyone's attention, and everyone would die every moment. Staring at him, even staring at him with a magnifying glass.
Every move he makes cannot escape the eyes and comments of others.
Now that Wang Lie has come, his salary is the highest in the team like him, and his historical value is higher than him. Coupled with the huge traffic blessing, he has successfully taken away the attention that originally belonged to Dean.
If it had been anyone else, he would have been very unhappy to have been robbed of the limelight.
But if it was Sonny Dean... he felt a sense of relief.
Finally, finally...finally I am not the local headlines anymore!
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the arrival of the king is not all bad...
Thinking of this, Dean felt better.
He got up from the sofa and decided to go back to his room and take another nap.
When he walked to the balcony on the second floor, he took a look outside.
Then he didn’t look back.
He looked across his backyard to another villa dozens of meters away.
It was a house that had been vacant for almost a year.
When he bought the house, he also saw this one. The area was larger than his current house, but the location was slightly off - you had to go around a long way from the main entrance of the villa to the main road.
The backyards of the two villas are next to each other, separated by a wall as high as one person. They can be said to be back-to-back neighbors.
There were some tenants before, but no one bought it.
It has been almost a year since the last time I checked out, and Dean seems to have gotten used to looking at the darkness every night.
As a result, when he looked over there today, he found two people standing on the second-floor terrace of the villa!
Of course, it’s not unusual for someone to live here, and occasionally he meets an agent who takes people there to look at houses.
What really made Dean unable to take his eyes away was one of the two people. Although he was a little far away and couldn't see his face clearly, Dean always felt familiar looking at that figure. Thinking of this, he simply took out his mobile phone, turned on the camera, and then switched to a fifteen times telephoto lens, focusing on the figure he felt familiar.
Looking at the result...
Doesn't it look familiar?
The person who appeared on the second floor terrace next door turned out to be Wang Lie, that old scoundrel!
※※※
“The scenery is not bad.”
Standing on the terrace on the second floor of the villa, Wang Lie looked far into the distance.
The villa he rented was located right on the top of a hill in Northumberland. Standing on the second-floor terrace, looking east and north, he saw flat farmland and grassland.
To the west is a forest park, and to the west of the forest park is the highway.
Looking south is a residential area.
The single-family villas are scattered like chess pieces on this flat land. There are winding paths connecting these villas together, and finally return to a main road in the south.
Continuing to the south, there is a relatively dense residential area, which is also the central area of the small town of Northumberland. All kinds of commercial facilities are readily available, and basic daily necessities can be obtained there.
This is the most suitable "feng shui treasure" that agent Fernando Clemente spent a lot of effort to find for him.
“The hardware and facilities of the house are a bit outdated. No one has lived in it for a year, and there is a lack of maintenance...” Clement was not very satisfied with the house.
Because of these shortcomings, Wang Lie could only stay in the hotel even though the house was found. Clement spent nearly a week cleaning, maintaining and repairing it, and at the same time, he kept Wang Lie in the hotel. All the stuff from the house in Manchester was moved over.
Including a cryotherapy equipment worth 100,000 euros. Clement specially vacated a guest room in this villa to accommodate this big guy.
Before this, Wang Lie had always relied on taking an ice water bath in the hotel bathtub to relieve physical fatigue and recover quickly.
Although the hotel provides ice cube service, Wang Lie's ice bath requires far more ice cubes than the normal amount, so it is not convenient at all to rely on ice water bath to recover his body in the hotel.
Now after he made his debut for Tyne and scored a goal, he can finally move out of the hotel and live in this private gym, physiotherapy room, training center, and... home built just for him. .
“That’s it, so much work was completed in just one week. Considering the ridiculously low efficiency of British workers, I think it’s just a magic trick for you to be able to move in now, Clement. "Wang Lie praised his agent half-jokingly.
In fact, if it weren’t for the inconvenience of staying in a hotel for his wife and children, he wouldn’t have to be so anxious - the children are on winter vacation, and they have to come and see their father, and he himself wants to Where is my wife?
So his wife will come to the UK with her two children and live with him until the winter vacation is over.
After his mother was injured in a fall, he asked his wife to go back and take care of her, and the two began to live apart in two places like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
Wang Lie cherished this reunion, so he asked Clement to pack up the house so that it could be moved in before his wife and children arrived.
“I hope they can live happily during this period.” Clement is also very proud of his work.
"They will. Come on my birthday and let's have a meal together." Wang Lie invited his agent.
After working together for so many years, the relationship between the two of them is no longer just a work and business cooperation.
"Okay." Clement nodded in agreement. "I haven't seen Qiqi and Linlin for a long time."
Wang Lie shook his head: "Wang Ziqi is a bit rebellious now, just at the age when people hate dogs."
< br>Clement laughed loudly: "It sounds a bit like you."
Wang Lie rolled his eyes at him: "How do you look like me?"
"You are also quite rebellious. , Wang, especially when facing Heldon, and I think Kofi Rost also hates you now."
Wang Lie was also amused when he heard what he said.
After laughing, he said to his agent: "Thank you, Fernando."
Clement was a little surprised: "Why do you say that?"
"You and your colleagues have helped me solve a lot of off-field problems, so that I can only focus on the football field. Otherwise, with my character, if I can't play football well, I will be a failure as a person..." Wang Lie said.
Clement frowned, then shook his head: "You are almost thirty-eight, so are you becoming sentimental?"
"A little bit. But it's not so much because I'm about to turn thirty-eight, but it's because I'm about to enter a new stage, so I want to make a summary of the past..."
Wang Lie grabbed the balcony. Railing, he sighed while looking at it from a distance.
Yesterday's game was his first appearance in the Premier League on behalf of Tyne. At the same time, he scored twice, which verified that the plug-in given to him by the Travelers was effective.
He really felt that he was entering a new stage when he was about to turn thirty-eight.
This stage is an upward climb, not a downward slide.
The pain, entanglements and struggles of the previous six months are finally over.
At this moment, standing on the terrace of the new house on the top of this hill, looking at the flat fields and rows of buildings in the distance, he suddenly remembered a poem:
Xiongguan Road It's like iron, but now we're starting from the beginning.
It’s really like crossing over from scratch...
Wang Lie was feeling that life had entered a new stage, but Clement next to him complained: "Don't say that, Wang, I I thought you were going to fire us..."
Wang Lie, who was ruined by the atmosphere, turned to look at Clement: "Why do you say that? Of course I will not fire you."
"Then what do you mean by 'summarizing'? You didn't know how to do it before. Say this..."
Wang Lie asked with interest: "Then what will I say?"
"You will only say, 'It's not the time to conclude yet!'" The game is not over yet! 'And so on..." Clement imitated Wang Lie's tone of voice.
Wang Lie was so amused that he burst into laughter: "You really look like you, Fernando!"
After laughing, he said: "But you are right, my game is not over yet, at least there is injury time!"
Then he turned his sights into the distance again and looked around.
Then, as if there was some telepathy, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the villa closest to him.
※※※
Dean was observing Wang Lie across from him through the telephoto camera of his mobile phone, when he saw the other person who was looking around suddenly turned his head and looked over.
In the telephoto lens, he looked straight at the camera, as if he noticed Dean observing him.
And he even raised his finger!
Dean was so frightened that he reflexively turned off the camera - even though he knew that Wang Lie shouldn't be able to see him from such a long distance and the reflection from the window glass.
But he still felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.
When Dean came to his senses, he found that he was hiding behind the wall. This discovery made him feel a little embarrassed - why should I hide from him?
Damn it!
Even if you can meet him in the team, why can you still meet him when you go home?
Did you just become neighbors with him this time? !
Dean was really speechless.
A few days ago, he noticed that there were always people and cars coming in and out of the house and yard next door.
He just thought that someone else rented the house, but he didn't expect that the tenant was... Wang Lie!
It’s so haunting...
Is this necessary! Is it necessary? !
Damn it, you even want to rent a house next door to me?
※※※
"Who... lives there?" Wang Lie asked Clement, pointing to the villa dozens of meters away.
"Your teammate, Sonny Dean." Clement introduced simply, directly, and clearly.
Wang Lie laughed when he heard this answer: "Oh, that's a coincidence."
