Chapter 36
Madeira, located southwest of Lisbon, is a scenic island that has long been a popular tourist destination in Europe, and Cristiano Ronaldo is one of its residents.
This trip to Madeira was at Cristiano Ronaldo's invitation, for a short get-together.
After a long and winding journey, we finally arrived here around the afternoon. Once there, we could clearly feel the difference in climate. Due to the influence of the surrounding volcanoes, the temperature here is significantly warmer than in other places. It is said that the temperature here in winter never drops below 16°C.
Moutinho was already waiting for Lei Ming at the station in his car. As soon as he saw Lei Ming come out of the station, he waved and said, "Hey, Lei, over here."
Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw that the usually low-key guy was dressed quite flamboyantly today: big sunglasses, a floral short-sleeved shirt, floral shorts, and flip-flops.
Feeling a bit hot, Lei Ming took off his jacket, and felt just right wearing only a short-sleeved shirt.
"Joang, why are you dressed so provocatively today? I've never seen you dressed like this before."
"Haha, it's a vacation, so let's relax. Come on, get in the car. Cristiano will be very happy to see you. We can go back to the club together tomorrow."
"OK".
"Where's Bernardo? Is he here too?" Lei Ming asked Bernardo.
"No, he can't come because of something."
The two chatted casually along the way, and after about half an hour, they finally arrived at a C++ cruise ship at the dock.
The cruise ship was bustling with activity, filled with cheerful music, delicious aromas, and lively dancing figures, with handsome men and beautiful women dancing to their hearts' content.
Most of the men on the boat were dressed in beachwear, while the women wore sexy bikinis, showing off their beautiful figures without reservation.
Seeing that Lei Ming's attire seemed somewhat out of place, Moutinho smiled and said, "Lei, let's go upstairs and change into something else. I'll get it for you in a bit."
As soon as the two boarded the ship, they encountered a crowd of revelers. Among them was Cristiano Ronaldo, the football giant they had long admired. His prominent muscle lines were very impressive, and his physique was clearly more robust than many others present.
I had long heard that he was a fitness fanatic, and seeing him today, I can confirm that he truly lives up to his reputation.
"Hey, Ray, welcome! Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Let me introduce our new friend."
Cristiano Ronaldo spread his arms and made a downward pressing motion, the music on the boat stopped abruptly, and the crowd gradually quieted down. More than a dozen handsome men and beautiful women looked towards Lei Ming's direction, waiting for Ronaldo to introduce him.
Of course, many people here also know Lei Ming, because his outstanding performance in Monaco has been widely reported by the media.
Cristiano Ronaldo warmly approached Jonas Lei Ming, put his arm around his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Jonas Lei Ming is currently Monaco's starting goalkeeper, and he's one of our own. Come on, let's give him a round of applause."
As Ronaldo led the applause, everyone present naturally followed suit.
Led by Cristiano Ronaldo, Lei Ming quickly joined the group after changing into beach shorts with Moutinho. Soon after, the C++ cruise ship slowly sailed into the azure sea with a whistle.
It's clear that Lei Ming is the last person Ronaldo is waiting for to board the ship.
The party on the ship began the moment it set sail. Everyone swayed to the music, and several pretty girls couldn't resist touching Lei Ming when they were in front of him, their sexy figures dancing back and forth to the rhythm.
Lei Ming simply nodded politely in response, as a sign of deep respect.
The tall and handsome Lei Ming immediately stole the spotlight from many people, especially when he performed a cool popping street dance, which immediately caused many people to scream.
Lei Ming was having a lot of fun, not at all as shy as he appeared, which surprised Cristiano Ronaldo, who was resting nearby, as he repeatedly looked at Moutinho with admiration.
"Are you sure this guy is usually quiet?"
You can't tell at all!
At this moment, Lei Ming had clearly enlivened the atmosphere on the ship. Everyone joined in the fun, creating a particularly joyful atmosphere. If you didn't know that he was a goalkeeper, you would definitely think that he was a professional dancer.
"Uh! Probably, anyway, this is the first time I've seen Lei like this."
Moutinho had spent half a season with him, and this was indeed the first time he had seen Lei Ming with such a wild side. He had always thought of him as a well-behaved student.
"He hid it very well."
"Of course, he usually doesn't attend any parties. You probably haven't seen him reading. He's even more obsessed with reading than this. I think he's the kind of person who's very dedicated and serious about everything he does."
Moutinho, who introduced Lei Ming, was naturally very happy that Lei Ming was able to integrate into the atmosphere so easily. He was really afraid that Lei Ming would refuse to communicate with people like he did at the club.
"But to be honest, I'm a little jealous of his wealth!"
Cristiano Ronaldo looked at the other man's pants and then at his own, somewhat displeased.
This kid has a really good physique. He's tall and his muscles aren't as defined as mine, but you can tell he's trained. He's got a natural talent for that area, so even if he doesn't become a player, he'll still have a future.
"Hahaha, I never thought you, Cristiano, would be jealous. I'll have to tell Ray about this later, so he can be proud of himself."
"You dare!"
Cristiano Ronaldo pretended to glare and threaten, afraid that his image would be ruined by his friend.
After dancing for a while, Lei Ming declined several women's invitations to continue dancing and went to Ronaldo and Moutinho's side to order a glass of locally made wine.
