The match on December 18 was a cup game, Wimbledon won 5-1 away to Ditton, and Chu Zhongtian did not go because he was in class, but Russell and Borger skipped class to play, and this big win was also related to them, Russell had two assists and one goal in the game, and Bolger also had one assist and one goal. Emily also skipped class to watch the game, and according to what she told Chu Zhongtian after the game, if Chu went, the ball would not have been lost at all.

Chu Zhongtian only felt that Emily was exaggerating, how could he guarantee that he would not concede a single goal because of himself? None of the world's best defenders would dare boast about that.

But when he participated in the 21st game, the situation was really different. Wimbledon scored 'five' but conceded the number of goals from 'one' to 'zero'.

After the game, Eames took the team to a bar to celebrate, not exactly to celebrate the victory, but mainly to celebrate Christmas. This is the team's last game before Christmas, and the first game after Christmas will be on the 28th.

At this night's celebration reception, Chu Zhongtian's alcohol consumption opened the eyes of the whole team of Brits. They originally thought that Chu Zhongtian, a Chinese, was a bully, and they all rushed to pour Chu Zhongtian's wine. Unexpectedly, in the end, it was they who found out that they were the ones who suffered. Because Chu Zhongtian is completely in a posture of "a thousand cups are not drunk", he does not refuse to come, and does it one bite at a time. At the beginning, everyone was very happy, patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder, and laughed: "Now you are more and more like a real Englishman!" Hahaha! Another drink is a little more like that! Later, they couldn't laugh, Chu Zhongtian was interested, and he also took the initiative to attack and catch those people and pour them violently. I don't know how much he drank, anyway, there are not many people left who can still stand in front of him, but he can still stand up and go to the toilet by himself...... Shi Lin muttered before being poured down by Chu Zhongtian, "No wonder you kid works in a bar...... True miscalculation......"

I stayed in the bar until it closed, and a group of people helped each other out, and then lined up very neatly, standing by the wall, and vomiting.

"! I will never fight with Chu again in the future! ”

"Hell, I really doubt he's a Brit dressed as a Chinese!"

A group of teammates condemned and complained about Chu Zhongtian's drinking.

"Ahhh I'm going to take revenge on you, Chu! But not in the bar, but on the training ground! You wait to be broken by me 10,000 times! Russell, who was drunk, shouted.

Chu Zhongtian didn't have time to quarrel with Russell, he was no better than his teammates. He also held on to the wall and vomited - eventually drank too much.

Shi Lin had already relieved himself, he stepped forward and patted Chu Zhongtian on the back to make him vomit more comfortably, and smiled weakly: "You are a real Brit now, ha!" ”

Chu Zhongtian's answer to him was: "Vomit-"

"Hell! You're spitting on me! Shirin screamed in horror, like a woman who had stepped on a mouse.

"Haha-gag-" The teammates laughed loudly, halfway through laughter, and then collectively leaned down and continued to vomit.

Eames and Ingrid leaned under the lampposts, looked at the group of players, and exclaimed: "It was a wonderful night......

On the 23rd, he received a Christmas gift from his boss - a pair of the latest Umbro jogging shoes. The pair he is wearing on his feet now, because he runs and plays football every day, the inner and outer parts of his feet are worn to varying degrees, and it is estimated that he will not last long.

Chu Zhongtian was also very happy about this gift, because he would soon need new shoes.

Old Bent and the rest of his regular customers also gave him a Christmas present, the same thing he would soon need - a brand new Est Bro football.

Their New Year's message to Chu Zhongtian was "New Year, strive to score a goal, Chu!" ”

Wimbledon's performance has picked up, and Chu Zhongtian is also the main force of the team. If there is any regret for this group of people, it is that Chu Zhongtian from the Dons Bar has played half a season of games now, but he has not scored a single goal. Although they can cheer for Chu Zhongtian's wonderful defense, they are always not motivated to score...... Chu Zhongtian had seriously thought about it, this was not the first time he had spent Christmas at the Dons Bar. During his year of preparatory studies, he also worked here. Why did I feel lonely and homesick at Christmas at that time, but this time I didn't have the slightest thought of it? He thinks it's because he joined AFC Wimbledon. It was only when he joined this local team that he was really accepted by those locals, making the people at Dons Bar feel that he was in the same group as them and had a common language. Thanks to this, my hourly wage has increased, and I can receive more tips in the bar.

Whether joining AFC Wimbledon will change his destiny is too big and too empty to say at the moment, but it will change his life, that is certain.

By joining AFC Wimbledon, he has made a lot of friends and regained the joy of playing football again. In addition to his part-time job, the monotonous days of school and apartment are no longer boring.

Speaking of all this, he thought that the person he should be most grateful for was actually someone...... If she hadn't persevered in coming to herself, persuading herself to try like an incomprehensible paranoid, would she have come to this life today?

So when he thinks about it now and then, he thinks it's funny. I didn't want to come with a hundred of them...... As a token of appreciation, he also had to give Emily a Christmas present. What can I give?

Nowadays, many stores are on sale, and it is not expensive to buy a gift. The problem is that those things that can be sold in the market, Chu Zhongtian doesn't want to use them as gifts for Emily. He felt that since it was a gift that represented his heart, it had to be unique and irreplaceable.

Looking at the various toys, accessories, ornaments, and cards mass-produced in those stores, Chu Zhongtian kept shaking his head.

A well-liked beauty like Emily will definitely receive a lot of Christmas gifts, whether it is cards or physical goods, but they are all bought from these stores. He didn't want to give someone a gift and collide with someone else's car, it would be too shameless.

He wanted Emily to remember her own gifts, instead of stacking them with other people's gifts and not being able to tell them apart.

After thinking about it for a long time, he thought of the fact that he was good at drawing. Although it is more cliché to send a portrait, and it doesn't look worth much, but it is always painted by yourself, and the courtesy is light and affectionate, but it is also a Chinese tradition, ha...... Just do it when you think about it, on the 24th, Boss John gave Chu Zhongtian a day off, he didn't have to go out to work, after getting up early in the morning, he locked himself in the house, set up the easel and drawing board, put the tools, and then closed his eyes and began to recall in his mind.

What to recall?

Naturally, I would recall the images of Emily, find one of the most representative and beautiful shots, and present them on paper.

It seems that without much searching, Chu Zhongtian's memories were frozen in the campus Christmas market some time ago. Emily played Juliet in a European medieval costume lingered in Chu Zhongtian's mind.

Chu Zhongtian reopened his eyes, picked up the pencil in his hand, and landed on the paper.

※※※The evening party is held in a bar, but the meeting place is in front of the school.

When Chu Zhongtian came to the school gate with a bag with framed paintings, he found two old acquaintances - Russell and Borger, who were chatting together.

"Emily invited you?" Russell's face changed, and he remembered that "wonderful night."

"What? Can't you invite? ”

Russell ignored Chu Zhongtian's question, but pointed at him and said, "I won't drink with you!" Don't drink a drop! ”

Bolger nodded beside him: "I won't either, you don't want to get us drunk again this time, Chu!" ”

In fact, Chu Zhongtian didn't feel well after drinking that day, and he still had a headache when he got home the next day. Sure enough, fighting with a large group of purebred British gentlemen, even if he wins, it is the kind of "killing a thousand enemies and losing 800 yourself" a miserable victory, and there is really no need to experience it again. So he also waved his hand: "Okay, let's drink orange juice today, okay?" ”

"Drink orange juice? Emily, are you hiring a bunch of kids? A man's smug voice, deliberately concealed in his heart, sounded behind the three of them. They all turned around to see that Emily and the rest of the group had just arrived.

The person who spoke was standing next to Emily, and very close. looks good, but it is two styles with Russell's handsome, Russell is handsome and a little delicate, while this person is handsome and very manly, with slightly dark skin and looks healthy. He was also very tall, almost as tall as Russell, the tallest of the three.

Although the image is very eye-catching, the words that can be said are not good, and the provocative words that are very strong make the three people on the other side frown.

Emily smiled as if she hadn't heard.

Except for Russell and Borger, as well as Chu Zhongtian, most of the people who came were her classmates, and only the tall and handsome guy had a special identity.

"This is Dani. Wellington, formerly my neighbor, moved away and we only recently reconnected. Emily smiled and introduced the tall, sunny guy beside her.

"Amy and I are childhood sweethearts." That Dani. Wellington reached out and put his arm around Emily's shoulder, and said a little sensitively.

Emily didn't mind him doing so, and continued as usual: "Dani is now playing in the Chelsea development squad as an attacking midfielder. ”

Borger whistled.

But as soon as Chu Zhongtian heard the name of the club, he remembered another person. He blurted out, "Do you know Joe. Shirin? ”

The next thing everyone saw was Dani. Wellington's face changed: "I...... I don't know! He withdrew the hand he was holding Emily and waved his hand.

Chu Zhongtian was sure that the person in front of him must know Xi Lin. But what is the reason for denying it...... He suddenly laughed, and then held out his hand to the other person, "Nice to meet you, Wellington." My name is Chu Zhongtian, you can call me Chu. I am a Chinese student. ”

Emily added: "Chu is a great player, he plays at our AFC Wimbledon. And as it happens, he's right up against you, Dani. He is a defensive midfielder. ”

As soon as he heard Emily say this, Chu Zhongtian felt Wellington's hand exert force. "Hah! It's really rare, I thought that Chinese couldn't play football! "Dani. Wellington laughed sarcastically.

"Hey, you ......" Borger, who was on the side, couldn't take it anymore. How could he say that he and Chu Zhongtian were both alumni and teammates, how could they watch their companions being insulted by a domineering and unlikable guy? At this time, he could completely forget what he had done to Chu Zhongtian before...... Opposite Dani. Wellington seemed to be quite afraid of making a move, he hurriedly let go of Chu Zhongtian's hand and said to him, "Just kidding, haha!" ”

Chu Zhongtian also laughed, as if he didn't take the insulting words to heart at all.

Emily introduced Russell and Bolger to her former neighbours, and when she heard that their best results were only playing in the youth team of League One side Wimbledon, his sense of superiority was unconsciously revealed. So on the way from here to the bar, Dani. Wellington naturally considered himself a central figure, talking a lot about his Chelsea experience and mentioning the names of the stars from time to time to show that he knew them well.

Many of Emily's classmates listened with relish, and the boys had almost one look of disgust. As men, they have always had an innate hostility towards men who are always popular with the opposite sex.

"This bastard, it's so annoying......" The three of Wimbledon dragged at the back, and Borger pouted as he looked at the high-spirited back.

"Agreed. I hate people who think they are arrogant. Russell was a proud person himself, so he couldn't afford to have another proud person with him.

"Hey, do you want to teach him a lesson?" Chu Zhongtian suddenly spoke.

"You're still alive, huh? I thought you didn't have the courage to challenge him. Boljie was very dissatisfied with Chu Zhongtian's performance just now.

"Didn't he just say that we were all underage?" Chu Zhongtian ignored Borger, he stared at Dani. Wellington's back said.

Russell hammered his fist next to him: "That's right! Chu, pour him to death with wine in a while! ”

Borger snapped his fingers as well: "Great idea! ”

Chu Zhongtian smiled. Although it's very uncomfortable to be drunk, I must let this kid have no return today! What are you pretending to be in front of Lao Tzu? It's a pity that we are no longer at the same level, otherwise you will see how I play...... ※※※ As Chu Zhongtian expected, many people present chose to give Christmas gifts to the most radiant princess Emily, and most of them gave gifts that could be bought in the store. He had to be glad he hadn't, because he had fallen in love with a ceramic Santa Music Box, and it was tragic that there were three identical Music Boxes among the gifts in front of Emily...... Chu Zhongtian took out his carefully drawn "Emily/Juliet" colored pencil portrait from his pocket and handed it to Emily. His ingenious gift has been praised by many people. This made Chu Zhongtian a little proud - he was different from those people, and his gift was unique.

"Is this me?" Emily asked Chu Zhongtian in surprise as she pointed to the blonde beauty in a gorgeous costume in the frame.

Chu Zhongtian nodded: "It's Juliet played by you." ”

"That's beautiful...... "Emily muttered as she looked at herself in the painting. The characters in that painting do look a lot like themselves. "I didn't know you were so good at drawing, Chu!"

Chu Zhongtian shrugged his shoulders and said modestly: "It's good if you like it." ”

"I love it very, very much!" Emily looked at it several more times before carefully setting it aside. "It's a great gift." She didn't say "the best", it was because there were still people here who gave her gifts, and if she said that Chu Zhongtian was the best, she would have to offend others.

Dani. Wellington was a little disdainful of Chu Zhongtian's gift, he didn't say anything, just put a disdainful expression on his face. For him, this hand-painted painting is no different from rags. Don't look at Emily like it so much now, when her gift is released, it will definitely turn the situation around!

The Chelsea reserve squad player was the last to rise up to give the present, waiting until everyone had brought it out before putting his hands in front of Emily – a pearl necklace that sparkled in the light. The white pearls are round and full, reflecting the surprised and excited expressions of the girls under the light.

They exclaimed, "Oh my God! This is Cartier! ”

Cartier is known as the "Emperor of the Jewelry World", and you can imagine the value of this necklace. This is indeed the finale...... It was the most valuable of all the gifts present. When Wellington took out the necklace in the box for Emily, everyone's breath froze.

"This rich bastard......" Borger grumbled quietly.

Chu Zhongtian looked a little distracted. He overlooked one aspect - although anyone could buy a gift in the store, some gifts could not be bought without enough money, and girls preferred such expensive gifts. Who says courtesy is light and affection is important? The person who invented this sentence must have been a poor and sour Confucian!

"Do I have the pleasure of wearing it for you, Amy?" Wellington said to Emily as he held up his necklace.

Emily nodded, then smiled at him, "How many weeks did this thing cost you a few weeks' salary, Dani?" ”

"It's a Christmas present for you, it doesn't matter how much it costs." Wellington put his hands behind Emily's head, brushed her blonde hair aside, and buttoned up the necklace. He leaned over and leaned over slightly, while Emily lowered her head and asked him to wear the necklace, and their faces were almost next to each other, and if the angle of view was not good, then they would have been thought to be face to face...... After putting on the necklace, Wellington reached out and straightened the necklace on Emily's chest, his movements gentle and careful, his eyes looking at the beauty in front of him with affection. The blind man could see that he was interested in Emily, and a group of girls next to him let out excited and gossipy screams, this scene was so romantic!

"Fuck! This slut, take the opportunity to rub oil! In the midst of the girl's screams, Borger whispered angrily.

Emily is Princess Dons and the Princess of Wimbledon School of Art. She enjoys a high reputation in the school and among the fans, and not many people have pursued her, just because everyone does not want to tarnish this pure princess. So although Borger and Russell didn't want to pursue Emily, they couldn't see anyone else take the initiative to do something to the public, especially if this "other" was still someone they hated...... Chu Zhongtian didn't scold, but for some reason, he was a little angry now.

He had always regarded Emily as his best friend, chatting calmly, joking, and giving her head affectionately, and she persuaded herself to go to a tryout, she took herself to buy sneakers, and in the twilight of the King's Ranch she promised herself that she would invite herself when Wimbledon returned to the top flight...... He never thought that another strange man would break into it and be so close to Emily.

He felt uncomfortable.

"Do you like it?" Dani. Wellington asked softly.

Emily nodded, prompting another scream of jealousy from the girl.

"These ugly women are so annoying!" Russell couldn't help it too.

Emily clapped her hands, "What do you all drink?" ”

As soon as he talked about what to drink, Wellington came to his senses again, he pointed to Chu Zhongtian, Russell and Borger who were sitting together, and said with a smile: "I heard them say that they want to drink orange juice, ha!" ”

"What the are you ......" Borjie was about to burst into foul language, but Chu Zhongtian stopped him.

Grabbing Borger, Chu Zhongtian said to Emily, "Let's drink, Emily." As he said this, he squinted his eyes and kept staring at Dani across from him. Wellington.

Bolger and Russell raised their middle fingers at Wellington behind his back and challenged them - if it's a man, take it!

Wellington pointed down with a thumbs down: You're dead, boy!
