Volume 1: When Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 53: The So-Called Friendship (First Update Guaranteed)
Chapter 53 The so-called friendship (first update guaranteed)
Chen Yingxiong has been very depressed recently. He scored a goal in the game against Chelsea, proving that his number of goals is not just based on the statistics of weak teams.
But it didn't help the team win.
His number of goals is increasing, but the team's league ranking is declining. It is really a helpless fact.
Another thing that made him depressed was that he found that the relationship between Suarez and him seemed to be estranged again. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, Suarez was avoiding him, and he invited him several times in a row to go out with him. , and they were all rejected. Although they all had good-sounding reasons, Chen Yingxiong always felt that maybe it was an excuse. Maybe they just stayed at home and didn't go anywhere?
But why would you rather lie than go? This made Chen Yingxiong confused.
He felt that he had done nothing to offend Suarez...
Adam Johnson was also a bit unstable. In private, he complained to two friends more than once about his tense relationship with Dalglish. When he drank too much, he vowed to leave the team no later than next summer and find another job. .
Now that Suarez has an ambiguous attitude and Adam Johnson is leaving after the end of the season, can the Liverpool team still be able to take over the helm? We originally planned to invite Suarez to come out for a few activities, and the Liverpool branch of the Eat, Drink and Play band was officially established. Now it looks like it will be postponed, but no one can tell when exactly it will be postponed.
Why is it so difficult to find a few people who can play well together?
What's more important is that the additional rewards from the mission are about to accumulate. Now the ratio of friends in the talent point "because of friendship" to increase their assist success rate has dropped to 20%, and now two-thirds of October has passed. If it is not completed in November, the success rate will be only 10% by December. In this case, what is the meaning of this mission reward?
I really can’t put it off any longer!
The troubled Chen Yingxiong wanted to figure out this problem. He asked Skrtel and Adam Johnson, but no one knew what was going on.
Moreover, I was alone in Liverpool and wanted to discuss it with someone, but there was no one around me.
After much deliberation, he decided to call Cassano, tell him his frustrations, and ask him if he had any good suggestions.
Aren't the so-called friends just the trash cans and recycling bins where you dump your bitter water?
"Ah ha, hero. What a coincidence, I was talking about you." Cassano smiled when he heard Chen Yingxiong's voice.
Although the two no longer play in the same team, they are good friends after all and will still be in constant contact.
"Huh? What did you say about me?"
"We, the members of the food and drink band, just went out for a party the day before yesterday. Everyone criticized you for screwing up the bodyguard without telling us. You are so ignorant that you are alien and inhumane!"
When Chen Yingxiong heard what Cassano said, he couldn't laugh or cry: "What do you mean hiding it from you? Christian and I happened after I came to Liverpool, okay?"
"Humph. Don't make excuses. Let me tell you, when you were still in Naples, I could see something was wrong with you two!"
Chen Yingxiong was speechless. He had to admit that what Cassano said made sense. He had already been interested in Cabrera when he was in Naples, but because they were together every day, after getting used to it, that kind of The interest was just not as strong as it is now.
He wisely changed the subject: "Are you guys gathering again? How enviable!"
"Then come back." Cassano said casually.
"Ahem." Chen Yingxiong coughed. He felt that today was really bad, and he would embarrass himself no matter how he changed the topic.
"What, haven't you made friends in Liverpool yet, hero?" Cassano asked.
"I have made friends... but there are not many people who can be truly considered friends. They are just teammates with whom we have a good relationship."
"Oh - normal. It's the same. There are dozens of people in a team, and you can't be friends with everyone. Generally speaking, it's good if you can have two or three close friends." Cassano Now I can say this. In the past, whether he was in Roma or Real Madrid, his popularity was really not very good...
Now in Naples, he has stabilized. He has a stable girlfriend, teammates with similar interests, and head coach Mazzarri who values him highly, which makes him feel at ease. Now he has decided to completely settle down in Naples. He is almost 30 years old and has heart disease problems. He doesn't know how long he can play. Naples is a good place where he can spend the last days of his career with peace of mind.
Chen Yingxiong told Cassano what happened between him and Suarez and asked for his advice.
"I think... it might not be a good idea to just invite people out to play, hero." Cassano thought about it and said. "I heard what you said. He has a wife and children. His family may play a bigger role in his life. He is not a hero like you."
"Hey, I have a girlfriend too!"
"Hey! Is your girlfriend by your side? You are single most of the time. You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't get caught by the media... Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot. Even if you are caught by reporters on the spot, you can only Give them a middle finger, and then do whatever you want as if nothing happened... Anyway, you have no worries just going out to play, but others have to think a lot..."
"Then what should we do? There is no way we can move forward in this relationship!"
Chen Yingxiong was frowning on the other end of the phone.
Cassano laughed heartlessly over there.
"Hey, there's nothing funny!"
"Hero, do you really want to make friends with others?" Cassano asked after laughing.
"Is not it?"
"Don't you have anything else on your mind?"
Chen Yingxiong's heart beat faster and faster. He didn't tell anyone about the upgrade system, dungeons, and missions... Could it be that Cassano guessed it?
Not like...
"What other thoughts can I have? I just want to be in a new team and meet more friends. It would be more fun. You know, I like to play..."
"Making friends depends on your own heart, as long as you are sincere. When your friends need help, you step forward. When you are in trouble, they will naturally help you. Once you come and go, the relationship will be better. Just treat guests. What kind of friends are we eating?" Cassano laughed. "Why do we become friends, think about it, hero?"
Chen Yingxiong fell into deep thought after hearing these words.
He and Cassano actually didn't like each other at first. For this reason, the two of them fought in front of so many reporters at the Fort Volturno training base for the first time, without giving any attention to the head coach. Mazari saves face.
At that time, many media claimed that they and Cassano were not getting along well and that they would become two time bombs in the Naples locker room, and they did not know when they would explode. Many people are already waiting to see the joke.
Unexpectedly, they became friends in the police station that night.
why?
Because Cassano was besieged by a group of extreme fans at that time, and he stepped forward to help Cassano. Because of this, he made Cassano look at him with admiration and felt that Chen Yingxiong was a friend worth getting to know and get along with. In this way, the two people did not know each other without fighting and became one of the best friends in the Naples team.
People who only want to enjoy the benefits that friends bring to you, but never think that you will reach out to help your friends when they need help, are indeed not qualified for friendship.
Just like Cassano said, the friendship established by treating guests to dinner and playing with women is unreliable. There is a word in the profound Chinese language that can describe this relationship very well: friendship of fair share of meat and wine.
Chen Yingxiong felt that he was too eager for quick success. Just because of the task reward, even making friends seemed to have become a task for him. He didn't make friends just to make friends, but he took the initiative to make friends with Suarez in order to get the mission reward...
No wonder people are alienated from me.
He must have seen his utilitarianism in this process. Maybe I didn't do it on purpose, but I definitely showed some clues unintentionally. After all, Cassano seemed to be able to tell something was wrong through the phone. Suarez is in contact with him every day, so he might have noticed it already.
Well... forget it, don't think about the mission!
Suarez is indeed good and worth getting to know.
Take your time, and if you have the chance, reestablish a friendly relationship with him...
※ ※ ※
When Chen Yingxiong was thinking about Suarez, Suarez was also reflecting on his relationship with Chen Yingxiong.
He felt that after the past two weeks of being alienated intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Yingxiong probably didn't regard him as a friend anymore, right?
Anyway, when he refused again and again, although Chen Yingxiong kept saying: "It's okay, you can go and accompany your wife!", you could still see his disappointment.
A little too heartless?
Isn't this not good?
After all, I pretended to be friends with him just to defeat him, but others seemed to truly treat me as a friend...
This made Suarez feel a little guilty. After all, I deceived him first...
And after doing so much, Chen Yingxiong was still able to score goals continuously and firmly occupy the core position of the offense. He traveled back and forth to Italy, frequented nightclubs and bars, and scored goals whether the team was losing or winning...
In this case, what's the point of doing it yourself?
As the season progressed, as Suarez came into contact with Chen Yingxiong, and as he gained understanding and insight into Chen Yingxiong's personal abilities, Suarez had to admit that Chen Yingxiong was really better than himself in terms of scoring goals. Little by little...
Yes, just a little bit - for Suarez to admit that, even just a little bit, is amazing...
Suarez rubbed his chin.
So next time, if he asks me to hang out again, should I reluctantly agree?
