Golden Greenery

The deafening boos from the Maracanã Stadium with 80,000 people could be felt even if the image traveled 9,400 kilometers.

The morning at the small manor in the forest of Vaduz was still exceptionally cool in the hot European summer. The wind blowing from the Alpine valleys shook the leaves and quietly entered the room through the windows.

Coco sat crookedly on the sofa and heard the boos coming from the live TV broadcast. She couldn't help but worry about him. She knew those Brazilians were booing him. But when she saw him raising his head high, patrolling the stands fearlessly with a straight nose and disdainful eyes, she no longer worried.

Kou Kou knows that no one can defeat Zhuo Yang's pride.

However, he was too proud.

Koko was still feeling very uncomfortable, and she felt even more uncomfortable when the TV camera switched to a close-up of Mydel in the stands. The fiery red No. 18 jersey worn by Midelle was particularly conspicuous among a group of beauties wearing white jerseys.

A few days ago, my aunt called me anxiously and said that after a quarrel between Mydel and Jefflin, she disappeared, and her small suitcase was also missing. At that time, Kou Kou had a premonition that Midel would go to Brazil to find Zhuo Yang, but she did not say anything.

Sure enough, just over ten hours later, Uncle Andrew called again and said that he had found Midelle in Brazil. It was Zhuoyang who called him personally to reassure them.

Midel has never been to Rio, and Zhuo Yang said that he would let her play there for a few days before going back. All arrangements were made, and there would be someone to accompany her. Then he reiterated again that he would ensure Midel's safety and reassure them.

Brother Zhuoyang, why don’t you know how to reassure me?

Everyone guessed that Midel would definitely go to watch the match between Germany and China. However, Jefflin said that Midel would definitely support the German team because she is German and Swinburne comes from a senior German aristocratic family.

But Kou Kou is convinced that Midel will support China because of Zhuo Yang, because Kou Kou herself will do the same. Sure enough, Kou Kou guessed it right again. Not only did Midel wear the Chinese team's jersey clearly, but she also sat arrogantly among a group of German women.

Koko knew that it was a group of German ladies who were very ostentatious in this year's World Cup. She knew a few of them, including Khedira's girlfriend Lena and Muller's wife Lisa, who was a horse training jockey. Partyed with them.

Mertesacker's wife Ulic was not there because she was pregnant with her second child. But Koko didn't know why Xiaozhu's girlfriend Sarah was not there either. Didn't she like this kind of occasion the most?

Kou Kou was not sure what would happen to Midel and Zhuo Yang in Brazil, because at a time when the relationship was at a sensitive stage, Zhuo Yang neither gave her an explanation nor even called her at all. If he had cared about her feelings, he would have arranged for someone to send Medel back early instead of leaving her alone.

However, Kou Kou still thought that nothing would happen to them, because Zhuoyang was too proud, and his actions seemed like a demonstration against the Habsburg family, because he felt that he was a coward when he was in Vaduz.

Alas——, Kou Kou looked at the TV and sighed.

Brother Zhuoyang, do you know? You have such a bad temper that my father and I don't dare to communicate with you now, for fear that things will get even more tense after you lose your temper.

.

You always make the same mistakes when it's your turn to reason with others.

Zhuo Yang spoke earnestly and sincerely to convince Midel, but he was completely unaware of it. He was strongly criticizing the Habsburgs for only thinking about face, and he was not equally obsessed with face.

I come and go with pride, but in the end I am not so proud.

After knowing that Midelle had run away from home, Zhuo Yang did not dare to hide it. After much thought, he called Midelle's father, Andrew Swinburne, to inform him.

Although Zhuo Yang and Andrew are different in generation, they still have a good eye for each other. To be honest, Andrew is the least aristocratic person among the nobles Zhuoyang knows. He laughs and laughs like a stubborn man all day long, but he doesn't bluff at all when things happen.

But really assertive. Andrew and Infantino are still buddies.

Sure enough, Zhuo Yang called, and Andrew did not suspect Zhuo Yang was involved in anything, but expressed his gratitude very sincerely.

Since Andrew acted so openly, Zhuo Yang felt even more selfless in his heart. Aren’t you suspicious of me and Mydel? See, why does this person have no objection to being a biological father?

In fact, Andrew first believed that the sky in Brazil was high and the emperor was far away, so even if he was worried, there was nothing he could do about Zhuoyang. Secondly, he wished that Zhuoyang would become his son-in-law. Andrew is the only important person in the Swinburne family who does not have a title, and he has never bothered to pursue it.

Andrew is a pragmatist with a cynical temperament. He even knows the value of Zhuo Yang better than the Archduke of Austria.

.

Zhuoyang didn't have time to accompany Midel around, but apart from love, there was no problem that money couldn't solve. High-end tour guides and professional security guards were always on hand. So during the past two days, Midel ran around in Rio during the day, Zhuo Yang concentrated on training and preparing for the game, and had dinner together in the evening, that's all.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the game day arrived. At 3 pm in Rio time, it was midnight in Beijing, and at 11 am in Vaduz, the Chinese football team entered the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time.

The top eight are divided into upper and lower halves, and the strength distribution is relatively equal. Each has two strong teams. The upper half is Argentina and the Netherlands, and the lower half is Brazil and Germany. Each has a dark horse, Costa Rica and China. Each has a second-rate team, Belgium and Colombia.

The Chinese team's winning odds have soared from 29th on the first day to eighth. It looks quite vigorous, but it is actually the last one among the remaining eight teams.

Four high-level games in a month have presented all the details of the Chinese team to the world. Apart from Zhuo Yang, the only commendable thing about this team is their mental strength, which is shown by running crazy on the court.

After the first four games, the Chinese team ranked first in terms of average running distance per game, followed by Germany in second place, and the gap was almost negligible. In other words, even if the Chinese team can still run as well as before, it will not be able to take advantage of the Germans.

So, only Zhuo Yang was left. There is another highlight of today's game: veteran Mislalov Klose started.

On the World Cup historical scorer list, Zhuo Yang currently tops the list with 16 goals, Klose has 15 goals, and they are the only two active players in the 'Ten-Goal Hall of Fame'. In the long run, there is a high probability that Zhuoyang, who is seven years younger, will continue to score more goals in the future. However, only from this competition, Klose, who participated for the last time, may have a high chance of scoring a goal with the added strength of the team. This year he surpassed Zhuo Yang.

There is another person, the second son Thomas Muller, who has scored 9 goals in two sessions so far and is almost the only surviving shooter who has the hope of entering the 'Ten-Goal Hall of Fame'.

Most of the people on this list are German. Many people, including Zhuo Yang, still regard him as half German.
