Fame with a ball

Lin Zhigao sat up straight all of a sudden, his eyes widened in shock: "Who are you talking about?"

"My son, Sebastian." John smiled bitterly: "He will live in Turin for a while, at least a few months, and I hope you can help me take care of him, just to ensure that he behaves well every night Just go home and sleep."

Lin Zhigao stammered: "Then you and I...he..."

"He knows your existence, and he promises that he will obey your words obediently and not cause any trouble."

"Okay." Lin Zhigao looked at John and asked seriously, "I want to know what's going on."

John stroked Lin Zhigao's neck slowly with one hand, and tapped a regular rhythm on his knee with the other hand: "It starts with my marriage with Lavinia. The story is long, but I will Keep it as short as possible."

He looked at Lin Zhigao's expression gently with his eyes: "Lin, I want you to know that these things are all in the past tense for me."

"I understand." Lin Zhigao shook John's hand, but his expression was still a little nervous.

"I met Lavinia when I was a teenager and we fell in love very quickly and got married. When I was 20 years old, Sebastian was born because I didn't get along with Lavinia at the time. Prepare to be a competent pair of parents, so in the first two years of Sebas' birth, the nanny took care of him the most. Even so, Lavinia and I were still a little at a loss. My father is a banker, and my mother also has a lot of property. They We were still in our prime, so I was rich and free. At that time, I was obsessed with art, skiing and sailing, and Lavinia and I began to spend more time together, as if we had always been a two-person world."

Lin Zhigao started to feel sour bubbles in his stomach. He wanted to ask John about Lavinia, but after struggling for a while, he still held back.

John's eyes began to become complicated, and he cast his gaze out of the car window.

"In 00, my grandfather's only son, my cousin Edo, committed suicide. His death brought a great blow to Gianni, and his body began to deteriorate, but he had to choose a family for his family. He finally chose me as the heir. I was taken to Turin by him, and I started a series of teachings. After a few months, I served in the group and gradually took over more and more affairs. The burden suddenly increased, It made me grow up overnight, and I also realized the importance of responsibility-I began to want to be a qualified father."

From John's tone, Lin Zhigao could hear that the accident happened at this time.

"Lavinia quit her job as a fashion designer in Paris and I took Sebas with her to Turin. Sebas is getting bigger and I don't want to leave him all in the babysitter's belt, I'm busy myself, la Vinia had no choice but to become a full-time housewife, which made her very dissatisfied. At the beginning, I always comforted her and introduced Sebas to the fashion industry in Milan when Sebas could go to school. But in 03, Gianni also passed away. My work started to feel like there was no end in sight."

"Before the end of the year, Lavinia couldn't bear to ask me for a divorce. She thought that her life should not be wasted looking after the children and waiting for her husband to come home. I tried to remedy it, but Lavinia at the time She said a word to me, and she said that 'marriage is the recognition of feelings and responsibilities, and cannot be at the expense of sacrificing each other's life', and I agreed with her idea. So we went through divorce procedures and broke up peacefully."

Lin Zhigao asked, "What about Sebastian?"

"He lived with me in Turin for two years, which were really exhausting two years. Later, Lavinia's career in the United States was stable, and he was sent to Los Angeles, but he would return to France every year to stay with me. A month or two."

John rubbed his brows: "Sebas was expelled from school a week ago, and there is no new private school to accept him yet, Lavinia refuses to let him go to public high school, and she is busy with fashion week recently, so Sebas Come to Europe to live for a few months, and wait for next year’s spring enrollment.”

"For what reason was he expelled from school?"

John's expression suddenly turned cold: "He filled his schoolbag with marijuana, took it to school to share with others, and was caught by the dean."

Lin Zhigao: "...I don't know if it's my illusion, why did I suddenly think of Labo?"

"I also suspect that these bad habits of Sebas have nothing to do with Rapo, but Rabo refuses to admit it. This is why I hope he can live with you. Your life rules, if Rapo sees If Sebas gives him some weird gifts, you have to check it out for me."

Lin Zhigao scratched his head: "I don't think your son will listen to me, I'm only five years older than him."

"Sebas isn't a bad boy, Lin. He's just... a bit naughty by Lavinia's habits, but he's generally a good boy with good manners. And, he promised me to obey you when he lived in your house." A series of rules made for him."

Lin Zhigao was still a little puzzled: "Although I still don't think Sebastian will respect me so much, I am even more surprised why you didn't arrange for him to live in your apartment or villa? Of course, I am not in Said that I don't like Sebas living with me, my house is a bit big for me alone, one or two more people are fine. But your apartment and villa are not much more comfortable than mine Is it? And they are all located in the city center, and the traffic is very convenient.”

"Sebas must live in your house." John said with a smile: "Because I told him that when you are with me, you are the head of the family."

"Is there any benefit in lying to your son like this?"

John smiled meaningfully: "First of all, Sebas will maintain a sense of awe for you, because if you can control his father, it also means that you have enough strength to control him, and he won't take advantage of my absence Sometimes he tries to irritate you or resist you. Secondly, he will be very curious about you, and curiosity can make him open up. I hope that when he leaves Europe, you can really understand and recognize each other from the bottom of your heart."

Lin Zhigao sighed deeply: "You are really like a wily and calculating fox."

John kissed Lin Zhigao's forehead and said with a smile, "It's a win-win situation."

Lin Zhigao suddenly thought: "You told your son that I am the head of the family?"

"Yes."

"Then should I give him some pocket money every month?" Lin Zhigao rubbed his chin and wondered, "After all, the head of the family is the one who supports the family, right?"

John hesitated for a moment: "Lin, you don't have to act so realistically. I'll just pay for Sebas, he's a very good spender."

"Then I won't be the head of the family anymore!" Lin Zhigao protested, "It would be bad if your son finds out!"

"…Sebas can't see through."

"Raising a family makes me feel safe." Lin Zhigao counted with his fingers: "Should I wait for Sebastian to move into my room, and then I will give you a share of the family in front of him? He's convinced."

"Lin, are you in the show?"

"Let's go grocery shopping on the way home. The fridge at home is empty. I want to eat your pasta and cream of mushroom soup."

"...You are the head of the family, I said it to deceive Sebas."

Lin Zhigao slowly raised his head and accused John, "But this is what you said."

"……Correct."

"For your son, this is true. Then for me, this is also true." After thinking for a while, Lin Zhigao added: "At least before Sebastian leaves, it will become real."

John finally understood what it was like to eat a bitter pill.

……

When Lin Zhigao played an away game in Marseille, France, he met Sebastian once, at the make-up reception held by Rabo for the Juventus players.At that time, he only remembered that Sebastian was very handsome and tall, and he looked very exotic in the costume of an Arabian prince.

When we meet again now, Sebastian has become a completely American boy—with messy hair, healthy tanned skin, sporty clothes, and a free and open air on his body, with an expression on his face. Standing alone in the waiting hall of Leonardo da Vinci Airport with a suitcase in hand, he attracted the attention of passers-by, because his expression was a little gloomy, probably because he was in a bad mood.

When Lin Zhigao appeared in front of him with John in his jersey, the boy was obviously taken aback, and then his eyes were glued to Lin Zhigao's jersey.

"I just finished the game, and I haven't had time to change my clothes." Lin Zhigao touched his nose in embarrassment, and then stretched out his right hand: "Lin Zhigao, you can call me Lin."

"I know you." Sebastian shook hands with Lin Zhigao, but the contact area of ​​their right hands was only a few fingers: "I saw your news in the Los Angeles Times not long ago. .”

Lin Zhigao, wearing the Juventus No. 10 jersey, appeared in a public place with a huge flow of people like Leonardo da Vinci Airport. It is obviously a fully automatic high-intensity eye attractor. No one passing by will pay attention to him. , John was worried that Lin Zhigao would be surrounded again, so the three left Da Vinci Airport as soon as possible.

Sebastian obviously respected John very much, so he was very polite to Lin Zhigao, and there was no sense of impoliteness in his words or actions, as if he was really looking at him as an elder—but Lin Zhigao was able to I noticed that on the way back from Rome to Turin, Sebastian was secretly looking at himself with curious eyes.

After arriving in Turin, John did not forget what Lin Zhigao said before, and asked the driver to abduct him to a hypermarket to purchase some daily necessities before returning to Lin Zhigao's villa.

Sebastian was already in a daze when John ordered the driver to go to the supermarket to buy first. He stared at John and Lin Zhigao with incredible eyes for a while.In the supermarket, when John and Lin Zhigao were standing in front of the freezer counter and discussing the freshness of the meat inside, Sebastian's expression looked as if he might faint at any time.

Lin Zhigao thought that John had probably never shown his domestic side in front of Sebastian before, and the kid was almost scared out of his wits.

Probably because he was too frightened along the way, when Sebastian went into the kitchen and was busy after seeing John coming home, Lin Zhigao entertained him to sit down and watch TV, and then went to clean up the customer service for him, his expression changed There are no more fluctuations.

After Lin Zhigao put on a brand new quilt cover for the guest room, he walked into the living room, and saw Sebastian sitting on the sofa very cautiously, distracted, and some news was broadcasting on the TV.

"Do you need me to help you pack your luggage?" Lin Zhigao asked him, and then saw that Sebastian's suitcase had been opened, and there were several cardboard boxes of different sizes on the ground, with many records inside. "Help you put these things on the bookshelf?"

Sebastian came back to his senses: "No, just tell me where the record rack is, and I'll just put it on myself."

Lin Zhigao scratched his head: "I don't use that thing myself, but there should be one in this house, probably in the storage room? I'll help you find it later."

Sebastian looked at him in surprise: "Don't you usually listen to records? Then how do you relax yourself?"

"Training? Watching DVDs? Occasionally I watch the music channel, but most of the songs I play are unfamiliar to me."

Sebastian's gaze towards Lin Zhigao changed subtly.

Lin Zhigao felt that he was despised, he ran to the storage room and rummaged, and he really turned out a record rack, and then the two of them sat on the floor of the living room and began to put the records in the cardboard box up.

"Don't move this one!" Just as Lin Zhigao was busy, Sebastian suddenly stopped his movements, then grabbed a record from Lin Zhigao, and held it in his hand carefully: "This It's signed by Bruno Mars inside, so don't damage it."

Lin Zhigao looked blank: "Who is Bruno Mars?"

"You don't know him?!" Sebastian swallowed in shock, and held up another record: "What about Justin Bieber?"

Lin Zhigao shook his head.

"Adele?"

Still shaking his head.

Sebastian rolled his eyes: "Taylor Swift?"

Lin Zhigao touched his nose, trying to save face: "I know Tom Cruise, David Beckham, Willard Smith, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt..."

"Oh, come on, anyone who reads the Los Angeles news knows that they are going to watch the Juventus-Galaxy game! It's not unusual for you to ask for an autograph or a group photo, it's not considered acquaintance." Sebastian Tian was very disdainful: "I want to squat at the gate of Hollywood every day, and the autographs I want to get can fill a book!"

"...But I have their contact information." Lin Zhigao looked innocent: "I even talked to Brooklyn on the phone yesterday."

"I, I don't believe it!" Sebastian's expression cracked.

Lin Zhigao shrugged, took out his mobile phone, and showed him the call records and contacts.

Sebastian's eyes froze for a moment, but he reacted immediately, and said proudly: "He, they are all old! And they are all movie stars, not singers! Come on, you must not dare Admit that you are behind the times!"

"Then..." Lin Zhigao frowned, "Does it count if I know LadyGaGa?"

Sebastian's expression was tangled for a moment: "If you read her news, it doesn't count as your acquaintance."

Lin Zhigao had a sincere expression: "I really know each other."

Sebastian snorted softly: "Impossible, GaGa is not a fan, and she doesn't like watching football games either."

"Actually, next year we will work together to dub a cartoon. Because our relationship is very familiar in the script, the animation company wants us to get to know each other in life, so I also have her email address and mobile phone number."

Sebastian's thoughts exploded between yelling "I don't believe it! I don't believe it!", and shaking Lin Zhigao's shoulder and shouting "Give me her mailbox!"

Lin Zhigao thought for a while, and then added a final blow: "By the way, that cartoon is from Pixar." Well, he didn't notice that Sebastian's record box actually contained a bunch of Pixar's What about classic animation?

The 16-year-old boy was messy in the wind.
