Align a control based on its center

I am developing a desktop application in C # Winforms where I implement a notification system that shows the amount of accumulated notifications.

My problem is that the label on the bell does not line up in the center

To give me to understand, I want to center the label as SO does with its reputation system

enter image description here

And for this he has used this code which the SO: Centering controls within a form in .NET (Winforms)?

this.CountLabel.Left = ((this.NotificationsBell.ClientSize.Width - this.CountLabel.Width) / 2);

But instead of centering my label, this is the result

enter image description here

So, how can I align my label from its center?

Note: NotificationsBell is the PictureBox with the image of the bell and CountLabel is the label with the number 100 and blue background

To align center of control1 to center of control2 vertically, when both of them are hosted in the same parent, you can use following code:

control1.Left = control2.Left + (control2.Width - control1.Width) / 2;
