The city of Milan at the end of March is not cold, but it is cool, especially in the area around Lake Como, where the air is humid.

Yang Cheng was wearing a sky blue Nike sports sweatshirt with a hat covering his head, and slowly ran on the cement road by the lake, panting constantly, but he did not stop and continued to run along the lakeside path.

This is his habit, he has to run a round trip every day, the distance is not far, the round trip is about a little more than 5 kilometers, and there is no specific distance, anyway, it is about 20 minutes a day, and he has insisted on it since Kaiserslautern.

According to Chris Schmidt, once a man is over 30 years old, he can't afford to be injured, because once he is injured, he will find that there are problems all over his body, and his whole life is beginning to go downhill, especially physical function.

And Yang Cheng has also developed a habit over the years, that is, thinking about problems while running.

Now his big problem is the knockout round of eight, against Manchester United.

From the second round of the group stage of this season's Champions League, there was no one to set sail for

The attention paid to the Champions Cup has obviously increased a lot compared to previous years.

Because it is very important to look at the second round of the group stage, the 16 teams except Ajax and Lokomotiv Moscow are all from the four major European leagues, which also makes the second round of the group stage sparkling and attracting great attention, and even many media have said that this is the most watched Champions League in recent years.

The reason is very simple, fans pay attention to the Champions League, and they are more willing to see the showdown between the four major leagues, after all, these four major leagues represent the strongest football force in Europe, who wants to see the strong teams of the four major leagues abuse the weak teams of other leagues?

This situation is even more obvious in the last eight, except for Ajax, all of them are teams from the four major leagues, namely Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Valencia and Manchester United.

Among these eight teams, there are three teams each in La Liga and Serie A, and only Manchester United in the Premier League, which makes many media begin to predict before the game that it should be La Liga and Serie A to fight each other, and there will be no fierce matches with national teams.

In fact, this guess is quite correct.

Inter Milan meets Manchester United, Juventus meets Barcelona, AC Milan meets Valencia, Real Madrid meets Ajax.

It's a bit outrageous, but everyone will find that as soon as the draw comes out, the whole world applauds.

Why? Because catch the right fight!

This reminds Yang Cheng of the popularization of the Champions League promoted by Platini in his previous life, which can indeed make football more civilian in Europe, but the problem is that this is a serious obstacle to the promotion of the Champions League, so the Champions League games will become more and more ugly and less suspenseful.

But now it's different, the Champions League is very competitive every season, especially this season.

When he got the lottery results, Yang Cheng received a text message from Ferguson, and the dead old man only said one sentence in the text message, "I have prepared the red wine!" ”

Yang Cheng replied directly, "The day of my revenge has come!" ”

Everyone knows that Inter Milan fell to Manchester United last season, and Yang Cheng has indeed waited long enough for this opportunity to take revenge, and now he has finally waited for it.

With the same zone, if Inter Milan crosses Manchester United and Juventus crosses Barcelona, then the semi-finals will undoubtedly have an Italian derby, which is also getting a lot of attention.

The closer he was to his villa, the faster Yang Cheng was running, and now he didn't notice that someone was calling him behind him, so he sprinted forward desperately, and rushed directly to the back door of his villa in one breath, before he gasped for breath.

Every time, he deliberately tossed himself to the point of exhaustion, because he felt that it was enjoyable.

The whole person was lying on the wall, panting constantly, letting the sweat drip down, which was very refreshing.

"You're running too fast, I can't catch up!" Behind him came Aniston's panting voice.

Yang Cheng turned his head, smiled slightly, and then gasped.

It took a while for him to take out two bottles of water from the garage door and hand over one, "When did you come back?" ”

"Yesterday!" Aniston said with a smile.

Last Christmas, she went back to the United States, saying that she was going to see her little nephew, and she has not come back until now. ,

"How's it going?" He asked casually.

It's clear that he's not just asking about life, but also about Aniston's sleepwalking.

The latter shrugged playfully, "I haven't had a seizure for a long time, the psychiatrist said, it should be fine, your method is very effective!" ”

Yang Cheng smiled, he just came up with an idea casually.

"How long will you be staying when you come back this time?" He asked casually.

"I'm still going to stay for a long time, I'm going back and putting off all my work, and I'm ready to live a comfortable life here."

Yang Cheng smiled and nodded, "It should be, otherwise why would it be so hard?" ”

"By the way, you seem to have a game today, and I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night, thank you!"

Yang Cheng thought about it, after playing Udinese, the team was going to be disbanded and ushered in a two-week national team break, and he had enough time, so he nodded and agreed.

Since the team was going to challenge Udinese away today, Yang Cheng had more time to chat with Aniston for a while before going home to have breakfast and then drive to the Pinetina base.

That evening, Inter Milan defeated Udinese 1-0 away, and Yang Cheng's side ushered in another victory, although the opponent also won, but it was no longer in the way of Inter Milan's title situation, it was only a matter of time.

…………

…………

The players went to report to the national team, and the players who did not have national team assignments were given two days off, and the Pinettina base immediately became quiet.

Yang Cheng walked to the windowsill of his office, stretched sourly, and muttered, "Another day has passed!" ”

Before you know it, it's dark again.

Just in front of the window doing stretching exercises and moving his body, he had been doing it in front of the computer all afternoon, feeling his bones fall off, and he was a little uncomfortable.

He's not playing with the computer, he's studying reports from United's last few games and watching some footage online.

There is no doubt that the three most influential teams in football today, Manchester United in the Premier League, Real Madrid in La Liga, and Inter Milan in Serie A, are the undisputed kings of their respective leagues, AC Milan and Juventus have recovered this season, but it is still difficult to shake Inter Milan's position in Serie A.

Therefore, many people say that Manchester United meets Inter Milan in the top 8 knockout rounds, which is a final staged in advance, and it is the showdown of the century between Mars and Earth, especially the collision between Yang Cheng and Ferguson, which is full of suspense.

Both teams boast a group of superstars who stand out from the rest, with David Beckham, Rio Rio Ferdinand, Roy Keane, Ryan Giggs, Veron, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville and Diego Forlan, who completely replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy as United's leading goalscorer due to a change in history.

Inter Milan have top stars in almost every position, Ronaldo, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Nedved, Pirlo, Deco, Emerson, Lucio, Nesta...... Count them down, all the superstars, star-studded.

However, there is no doubt that the clash between these two teams is most interesting for their two managers, the godfather of the Red Devils, Alex Ferguson, and Inter Milan's Nerazzurri Caesar Yang Cheng, whose rivalry is always full of gimmicks.

No, the draw has just been released, and Ferguson's big mouth has been bombarded in the media, saying that this is a shady scene, which UEFA specially arranged for UEFA not to want Manchester United to participate in the Champions Cup final at Old Trafford, so that Manchester United will meet Inter Milan in advance.

This old guy is so straightforward!

This guy was talking in the morning, and a reporter approached Yang Cheng at noon, and when Yang Cheng replied, "We don't care, but you see, Ferguson is afraid, he is always afraid of running into us, and he was just lucky last season!" ”

In the afternoon, UEFA reacted, once again clarifying the fairness, impartiality and openness of the draw for the last eight, and said that Ferguson would be investigated and a fine would likely be imposed.

In the evening, Big Mouth explained, saying that his statement was indeed a bit inappropriate, "I have to admit that the draw is fair!" "That look of indescribable grievance.

Seeing his expression when he was interviewed on TV, Yang Cheng laughed, everyone knows that the draw is unfair, but they just can't say it, who made UEFA the only decision-maker in this event? , Inter Milan's schedule is home and away first, which is a bit unfavorable for Inter Milan, but Yang Cheng doesn't think there will be any problems with this, he hopes to end this suspense in the first leg, at least to control enough advantages. Thinking of this, Yang Cheng's stomach suddenly rumbled and screamed, and it was only at this time that he suddenly realized that he had eaten breakfast today.

The players didn't come to training, the base's restaurant didn't do anything, and there was no one to provide it

Yang Cheng still decided to go home and eat.

Halfway through the drive, I received a call from Aniston.

"Haven't you come back so late?" There was concern on the other side of the phone.

"On the way, what's the matter?" Yang Cheng asked.

The phone was silent for a few seconds, "You forgot, I invited you to finish your meal." ”

"Oh damn it, sorry, I'm too busy today, where?"

"My family!" Aniston smiled too.

"Coming soon!"

10 minutes later, Yang Cheng drove back to his home, parked the car, and went to the next door.

The door was still unlocked as last time, but after entering, the hostess was waiting, and this time she was not asleep.

"I'm starving!" Yang Cheng went directly to the restaurant unceremoniously.

This guy is hungry, and when he sits down, he devours it, and he doesn't have the image that he should take into account when eating in front of beautiful women.

But often the more this is the case, the easier it is to give people a sense of intimacy, on the contrary, those guys who do everything all day long and put on a gentlemanly appearance often have rotten stomachs.

"How? What do you think? Aniston saw Yang Cheng wiping his mouth and asked with concern.

Yang Cheng nodded, "Well, it's not bad!" ”

Aniston immediately laughed, and just as she was about to say the next sentence, Yang Cheng said another sentence that almost made her hang.

"The main thing is that I'm too hungry!" This guy laughed.

Aniston glared at him with an almost murderous look, "Will the one who gives a good review die?" ”

"Uh...... Jennifer, you put a lot of salt in your cooking! With that, he was already laughing.

Aniston couldn't do anything about him, he was really angry and funny, "You go to the living room and sit down first, I'll get some fruit." ”

Yang Cheng looked at her puffed up expression, and kept laughing in his heart, Aniston's cooking skills are really not good, but the most important thing is that he is used to eating Chinese food.

As soon as he sat down on the sofa, Yang Cheng felt something under his buttocks, and took it out to see that it was the bracelet again.

Looking at this layered bracelet made of small jade embellishment, Yang Cheng felt very strange, it stands to reason that Aniston should attach great importance to it, why is it falling all day long?

"Hey, Jennifer, your bracelet!" Yang Cheng twisted the bracelet with two fingers and said with a smile.

"Ah, damn it, it's off again!" I saw Aniston rushing out with a plate of fruit in her hand.

Half kneeling in front of Yang Cheng, it looked like he was proposing, after taking the bracelet, he put it back on his wrist and put it back on, at this moment, Yang Cheng found that her hands were also very beautiful, pink and fair, with five slender fingers, which was not lost to her feet at all.

"I'll help you!" Seeing that she was hurriedly wearing a bracelet, Yang Cheng smiled and reached out to help.

"Thank you!" Aniston said sincerely.

Yang Cheng casually took an apple from the table, took a bite with a click, held it up, and asked, "Like APPLE?" ”

Aniston immediately laughed, she is actually a woman who is easy to be amused, not young, but still a little innocent, a bit like an older Natalie Portman, but the latter was raised by Yang Cheng since childhood, in his eyes, it is still a little bit of a little Lori.

"Why do bracelets keep dropping?" Yang Cheng picked it up several times and couldn't help but ask.

Aniston looked at Yang Cheng and sat down on the sofa next door, her elegant legs overlapped, and the short skirt immediately shrank up, revealing her entire slender legs, which made people can't help but look there, but the owner of the beautiful legs seems to have a worry that can't be resolved at this moment.

"What's wrong?" Yang Cheng rarely saw Aniston like this.

I saw her looking at the bracelet and smiled bitterly, "A man gave it to me." ”

Yang Cheng frowned, and almost blurted out, asking if it was Brad Pitt, but soon he realized that one thing, yes, history has changed, and the handsome guys have been with Angelina Jolie for many years now. , but he still couldn't help but wonder, could it be that history was reversed, and Aniston robbed Angelina Jolie's husband? That's too much, isn't it?

Yang Cheng couldn't help but shake his head and laughed.

In Aniston's opinion, his action seemed to be Yang Cheng seeing through some of her thoughts, and he couldn't help blushing, "You know." ”

Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and secretly thought, what do I know?

"Yes, I have a crush on this man, but ......" she shook her head.

"I can't see it, you usually have a big grin, and there are times when you don't dare to confess!" Yang Cheng smiled.

Aniston glared at him in disgust, "Hey, I heard you're experienced, help me." ”

"I'm experienced?" Yang Cheng pointed to himself, "You have read too many gossip magazines!" ”

Aniston chuckled, "Don't you men like to show off in front of women that you're very popular with beautiful women?" ”

"Uh......" Yang Cheng couldn't deny that there was indeed this problem, "That doesn't include me!" ”

Seeing the sad face of the beauty, Yang Cheng felt a little unbearable, and nodded, "Okay, for the sake of old friends, I'll teach you a few tricks." ”

Aniston immediately jumped with joy and made a serious gesture, like a schoolgirl.

"First of all, there is a sentence that you must understand, if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach, enter the kitchen, and get out of the hall......" He found these words too awkward, not smooth at all, "In short, if a woman wants to get a man's heart, in addition to being beautiful, she must also have good cooking skills." ”

It seems that the women he dates with are very good cooks!

"Am I doing badly?" Aniston asked.

"General, but this kind of thing is very demanding, perfect."

Aniston couldn't stop nodding, "Then why don't I concentrate on cooking next, and you can help me try the dishes?" ”

"It's good!" Yang Cheng's biggest headache is cooking, which makes him eat instant noodles all day long, and someone cooks rice for him, which is really ......

"Then, I want to be friends with him, men are like this, there is a good saying, men chase women compartment mountain, women chase male compartment paper, you just need to get acquainted with him, be bolder, take out a quick knife to cut the messy posture......" This guy became more and more energetic the more he talked, and directly put on the action of a fast knife hand.

"Everything's done!" Yang Cheng said very firmly.

Seeing that Aniston was nodding again, Yang Cheng put on a look of a love expert and reminded: "You have to remember three points, first, the time can't be too long, if he really doesn't love you, why waste time on him in vain?" ”

Aniston nodded, this is a good discipline.

"Second, you must know how to think about his expression, tone and movements in normal times, and set sail without anyone to provide

Look at his attitude towards you, by the way, where is that friend of yours? ”

"He's in America!" Aniston said.

"Heh, you're miserable, it's hard to fall in love from a distance!" Yang Cheng shook his head, looking like you are destined to be tormented by love.

"Third, seize the opportunity to confess, it's best if there aren't so many people, if you are rejected like this, you won't lose face, after all, ......" Yang Cheng nodded at her, wanting to say, after all, you are also a person with status and status, right?

If the media around the world knew that Aniston's confession was rejected, wow, the whole world would be a sensation, and the sky in the United States would probably collapse.

"Work hard, eldest sister, you have status, status, appearance, figure, talent, money and career, and you even have the most difficult house and car, you are simply a model of a perfect woman, no man in the world can escape from the palm of your hand!"

Yang Cheng made a pinch to pinch and knead to knead, which matched his expression, making Aniston laugh...... ）
