Chapter 496: Chapter 495: Deng Kai and Kaka Simply Don’t Understand Girls
As local arch-rivals, although Manchester City has declined over the past decades, they were hardly noticed by Manchester United fans.
But the deep-seated hostility in their DNA still made Manchester United fans vigilant.
Following that, the English media also widely reported on the matter.
Sky Sports: "In the first leg of the semifinals this morning, Lisbon Athletic will train at Manchester City’s training base."
The Times: "Mansour provided Lisbon Athletic with accommodation, transport, training facilities, and all conveniences! Was his intent to use Lisbon Athletic to severely damage the local rivals?"
Liverpool Echo: "Manchester City’s return to the Premier League next season, this season’s support for Lisbon Athletics might indicate plans for new signings?"
Manchester Evening News: "Manchester United’s first and second teams are in-house fighting, is Manchester City also chiming in for some attention?"
It must be said, the English media now look down on Manchester City.
Perhaps before the 1970s, Manchester City was the stronger one.
But since the nineties, Manchester United became the predominant force in the Premier League.
And Manchester City was forgotten.
Globally, Manchester City’s fan base is probably one percent of Manchester United’s?
Maybe even less.
But that’s why they say a dog is a "The Sun Newspaper" dog, isn’t it?
Compared to other English media that jump the gun, The Sun Newspaper carried out a very detailed review of the news about Lisbon Athletics, Manchester City, Deng Kai, and Mansour, resulting in significant findings!
The Sun Newspaper: "The next stop for future superstar Deng Kai—Manchester... City!"
This piece of news directly set off shockwaves in Manchester.
Even Deng Kai was startled when he saw it and hurriedly read on:
"According to our longstanding investigations, Mansour is very likely a fan of Deng Kai. He had watched the final of last year’s youth world championship and had invited Deng Kai to celebrate in his box afterward."
"After the establishment of the Football Emperor website, Manchester City and Lisbon Athletic were among the first clubs to have official presences!"
"Earlier this year, Manchester City signed Chinese player Sun Jihai."
"A month ago, Manchester City’s youth team announced the joining of Bruno Fernandes, a mediocre eight-year-old boy from Portugal."
"All signs indicate that Mansour is very attentive to elements related to Deng Kai."
"Of course, even so, Manchester City wouldn’t possibly snatch Deng Kai from Manchester United if they were interested. Any normal player wouldn’t hesitate between the two."
"Unless... unless Deng Kai lost his mind!"
"Considering Mansour’s various overtures, we must warn Hathaway, your biggest competitor is likely not Keira Knightley, but Mansour from the UAE royal family!"
Good grief!
The Sun Newspaper is still harping on Deng Kai’s good relationship with Ronaldo, attempting to prove Deng Kai’s orientation is abnormal.
But, oddly enough, English fans love this stuff.
Suddenly, reports like "From the King of Alvalade to the Princess of the UAE" spread all over England.
It’s laughably absurd.
Keira, currently involved in a film shooting in England, was even asked about it.
In response, Keira laughed and said, "I can’t answer questions on that right now, but once I figure out Deng Kai’s specific preferences, I’ll let everyone know."
The journalist nodded, waiting for you to figure it out... wait, what do you mean by that?
How are you going to figure it out?
Give it a try?
Is that a confession?
Similarly, the reporters also interviewed Hathaway.
About this, Hathaway was actually quite troubled because Deng Kai had not yet reached the legal age, so they had always maintained a respectful and courteous relationship.
But Hathaway obviously couldn’t say this to the public.
So Hathaway stated, "Maybe Deng Kai is too cold towards other women, which gave The Sun that kind of misunderstanding. But all in all, we’re very happy when we’re together! It’s a kind of happiness you can’t even imagine."
Wow!
Hathaway’s statement hadn’t even broken The Sun or Keira, yet it already cracked Ronaldo.
"Excessive indulgence is one of the greatest enemies of a professional football player. No wonder you got injured with just one tackle from Enrique, the root cause is here!" Ronaldo seemingly casually placed the newspaper next to Deng Kai.
Deng Kai was speechless, "It’s just me, if it were you who got tackled like that by that scum, it wouldn’t be strange if you missed the whole season!"
Ronaldo scoffed with contempt, "Then how do you explain Hathaway’s words? Unimaginable happiness... that’s simply indecent!"
Deng Kai was stunned, "Hathaway and I pull all-nighters playing 2K, what’s indecent about that?"
Ronaldo was also stunned, "You guys... play 2K?"
Deng Kai nodded, "Yeah! What, can’t professional football players play 2K? Lakers champions!"
Ronaldo immediately retorted, "Nonsense! The Bulls are the eternal gods!"
Kaka was puzzled looking at these two, "Shouldn’t the point of your argument be why a guy and his girlfriend would pull an all-nighter playing 2K?"
Deng Kai and Ronaldo looked at Kaka, and pity flashed in Ronaldo’s eyes, "That’s why you’re still single, Kaka. You’re too straight. You don’t understand what girls really like!"
Kaka was enlightened, "What do girls like then? Like seeing you happy?"
Ronaldo nodded, "Of course!"
Kaka frowned, "After tomorrow’s match, I must call Elizabeth to see if it’s like you said."
Ronaldo’s smile gradually petrified, "Elizabeth?"
Deng Kai explained, "Elizabeth Petfer, Kaka’s girlfriend, they’ve been dating for a while in Brazil. Now Elizabeth is developing in Europe, she’s a female model."
"Better than Jia De’er’s sister Jordanina... you know what I mean."
Ronaldo walked away disheartened.
He no longer had the right to train with Deng Kai and Kaka.
Because unbeknownst to him, he was the only one still single!
And he hadn’t even been with Jordanina!
...
May 24th.
The whole world was looking forward to the match between Sporting Lisbon and Manchester United.
In yesterday’s Real Madrid vs. Bayern first-leg semi-final, Real Madrid beat Bayern 2-0, taking control of the game.
For Bayern, the second leg has become quite difficult.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I’m thrilled to bring you Manchester United vs. Sporting Lisbon in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, I am your old friend Huang Jianxiang,"
"Sitting next to me is our special guest, teacher Han Qiaosheng."
"Our previous intern commentator, He Wei, is now commenting on basketball and couldn’t make it."
"I hope that teacher Han Qiaosheng and I can bring you an exciting commentary."
"Eh, why does Ronaldo look so unhappy? Could he be feeling unwell?"
"Impossible, as an extremely disciplined player who doesn’t even have a girlfriend, his physical condition has always been very good!"
