Girlfriend Taylor

He walked out of the Colney Training Centre.

Frye... or Li Yufei, as he could also be called, immediately took out the iPhone 4 his older sister had given him the previous month. It had only been on the market for a month.

Seeing the missed calls in his call history, Li Yufei called back.

After several beeps, someone picked up, and an affectionate female voice came from the other end:

"Darling, are you done training?"

"Yeah, Sis, I'm done. I just left the training ground. By the way, has your tour ended?" Li Yufei was eager to see his beloved.

"Yeah, it's over. I wrapped things up in Canada a few days ago. Brother Frye, this tour nearly killed me. Aren't you going to reward me?" Taylor began flirting on the other end.

"Sure. When are you coming to the United Kingdom? I happen to be off for a few days, so I'll have time to keep you company..." Li Yufei paused, then added in a low voice, "I miss you."

There was a pause of several seconds at the other end of the line, followed by a burst of laughter. "I miss you too, darling. Why don't you look straight ahead? You might find a little surprise."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Yufei wondered what she meant. He instinctively looked up—and froze.

Just thirty meters ahead of him stood a young woman wearing sunglasses, her golden curls falling around her shoulders. She held a phone in one hand and waved toward him with the other.

Wasn't this young woman the love he'd been longing for, Taylor Swift?

"Sis, what are you doing here? Why didn't you tell me you were coming to the United Kingdom?"

Li Yufei hung up and hurried over to Taylor in three quick strides.

Taylor Swift stroked her boyfriend, who was taller than her, and smiled. "My darling little rascal, I wanted to surprise you. Are you happy? Excited?"

Enjoying his girlfriend's affection, Li Yufei nodded. "Of course I am. Sis, can you stay a while this time?"

Looking at the hopeful expression on her young man's face, Taylor took off her sunglasses, revealing beautiful sea-blue eyes. She shook her head helplessly. "Honestly, Frye, do you really think I don't spend enough time with you?"

"You look like you're desperate for your big sister's affection. You're making my heart flutter."

Li Yufei didn't take his girlfriend's teasing as an insult. Instead, he seized the opportunity and asked Taylor to stay with him in the United Kingdom for a while.

Taylor readily agreed. Her tour had just ended, and it was the perfect time for a vacation. What could be more relaxing than spending time with her boyfriend?

At Taylor's invitation, Li Yufei got into the Range Rover Mei Mei had bought in the United Kingdom a year earlier for getting around.

Taylor had bought it to make it easier for her and Li Yufei to get around the country.

Unlike Taylor's sweet, girl-next-door appearance, her cars had always been big, imposing vehicles like Hummers, Toyota Sequoias, and Range Rovers.

It was clear that Taylor's personality was anything but stingy or reserved.

After spending so many years together, Li Yufei had gotten a pretty good sense of his "foreign wife's" personality.

How should he put it? This future World's Top Female was lively and energetic, loved dragging Li Yufei into singing and dancing, and was clever and perceptive. She had nothing in common with the "dumb blonde" stereotype.

Of course, although she wasn't a "dumb blonde," she did have a bit of a love-struck streak.

At least in this life, Li Yufei was Taylor's first love, and he was certainly living off her generosity to the fullest.

After all, ever since Li Yufei joined Arsenal's youth team in 2007,

Li's Father had used his new salary as an excuse to stop giving him money, telling him to support himself.

But how could a youth player's meager salary support a pampered young master who'd enjoyed a comfortable life since childhood?

In the end, aside from the pocket money his mother, Anne Adams, secretly gave him, he was entirely supported by his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

Fortunately, Taylor's music career had gone from strength to strength since her debut in 2006.

Especially after her album Fearless came out in 2008, Taylor had gradually become known around the world, and the title of Country Pop Princess had well and truly become hers.

Her income had risen year after year, too. After taxes, she'd taken home more than 20 million USD last year.

That still couldn't compare to the future, when the world-famous pop queen would earn at least 100 million USD a year.

But at the time, Cristiano Ronaldo, the highest-paid player in Football World, earned only 12 million Euro a year at Real Madrid, while another Barcelona player, Lionel Messi, made 10.5 million Euro annually.

Taylor's income was already astounding.

Besides, once Taylor finished her Fearless tour this year, her annual income would surge again.

By then, Li Yufei could live off her even more shamelessly.

They'd be a family in the end, so why draw such clear lines?

On the way home, Li Yufei suddenly felt a strange sensation down below. He glanced at his girlfriend, who was driving with flushed cheeks, and sighed.

"Darling, if you want me, just say so. There's no need to hint at it like this. I understand."

Taylor didn't hold back. She pulled over somewhere quiet, climbed over to the passenger seat, and bent down...

(One hundred thousand words omitted here...)

After their workout, Li Yufei looked a little tired. While Taylor was still catching her breath, he checked his attribute panel:
