What changed after getting a girlfriend?
That was a question Su Dong was asked by an official UEFA reporter after winning the UEFA Season's Best Player award.
At the time, Su Dong thought for a long while before answering, "I learned to slack off, but became more refined."
It was actually a very interesting question.
Ever since Su Dong and Wang Chuqing became a couple and moved in together, many things had been changing without him realizing it.
For example, Su Dong's phone bill had gone up. Even though they saw each other at home every day, he and Wang Chuqing still made several phone calls and sent countless messages every day. Whenever something happened, they had to send each other a message.
Gradually, it became a habit.
There were more photos, too, and his photography skills had improved without him realizing it.
That really wasn't because Su Dong had received sponsorship from some world-famous camera brand. It was because, after getting a girlfriend, the two of them often went out whenever they had a holiday, traveling all over the world and taking photos wherever they went.
Su Dong actually hated having his picture taken, but he liked taking pictures of Wang Chuqing. For that reason, he had even specifically gone to learn photography from the Ballon d'Or's professional photographer, studying things like lighting, angles, and composition...
There was only one purpose: to learn how to make his girlfriend and fiancée look more beautiful in photos.
All the photos were kept in their private collection.
In the past, Su Dong had lived a very rough-and-ready life. Every day, he did nothing but train.
Jose Semedo had once said that Su Dong was the kind of training fanatic who wished he could split twenty-four hours into forty-eight. He could stay home
