🕑 Added 2025-06-12 11:51:59 +0000 UTCThe coach walked toward Su Luo, looked at his performance with satisfaction, and said,
"Su Luo, your training today was excellent! You showed the qualities of a true leader. Keep this up, and you'll definitely become a core member of our team."
Su Luo nodded slightly and replied humbly,
"Coach, I will continue to work hard and do my best to contribute to the team."
The coach patted Su Luo on the shoulder with confidence and trust.
"I have full confidence in you, Su Luo. Don’t worry about outside opinions. As long as you stay focused on what you need to do, more people will come to recognize your value."
Su Luo felt a sense of relief after hearing the coach’s words.
Later, his agent accompanied him into the lounge. Su Luo furrowed his brows slightly and remained silent the whole way.
He was feeling increasingly stressed due to the negative media coverage about his lifestyle, which was starting to impact his public image and reputation.
Noticing Su Luo's unease, the agent took the initiative to comfort him.
"Su Luo, don’t pay too much attention to those reports. We all know they’re not true. Your talent and strength are obvious to everyone. Just focus on playing your best football. Show your skills on the field, and all the negative talk will eventually fade away."
Su Luo nodded gently.
He didn’t speak, but he felt deeply grateful for his agent’s encouragement and support.
Just then, a newspaper reporter suddenly pushed the door open.
He stared sharply at Su Luo, as if he had caught a scent of controversy.
The reporter stepped forward and asked coldly,
"I heard you’ve been frequenting nightclubs lately. Don’t you think that kind of behavior affects your image and your role as the team’s core player?"
Su Luo gritted his teeth, displeased.
"About that, I believe some of the reports are misleading.
Nightclubs are just a place to unwind and relieve stress—they don’t affect my training or focus. I promise, both on and off the field, I’ll give my all to win for the team."
The reporter sneered.
"Do you really think people will buy that explanation? Are you saying a nightlife habit won’t affect your professionalism and career?"
Su Luo grew more frustrated with the line of questioning.
He was about to lose his temper when his agent quickly stepped in.
"Mr. Reporter, please be more objective and see the bigger picture. Su Luo is a dedicated, focused professional. He knows how to take care of himself and stay at the top. He’s proven his worth on the pitch, and I believe he’ll continue to answer any doubts with his performance."
Su Luo calmed down slightly after hearing his agent's words, though he still felt stressed and uneasy.
He took a deep breath and said steadily,
"I don’t care too much about the negative press. I believe that my strength and performance will prove everything. Public opinion is temporary—but I’ll keep working hard, stay in top form, and win glory for the team."
His agent nodded with satisfaction and encouraged him,
"That’s right, Su Luo. We just need to focus on training and the matches. We can’t control everything else. Believe in yourself and keep moving forward."
Su Luo smiled faintly, gradually regaining his composure.
He walked into the Chelsea team’s office, still thinking about the unpleasant interview with the reporter.
