Chapter 239: Brilliant Night (I)
The image of Eggsy being carried by his teammates quickly spread all over the streets. Of course, more people believed the reporter's lies and really thought Eggsy was injured.
The reporter who took the photo made the details of Eggsy's injury quite complicated, saying that Eggsy felt discomfort in his leg when he left the field, so he left the rest area alone and went to the locker room. Then he found out that he had sprained his foot in the locker room, so he missed the media's interview with Real Madrid.
...That really sounds like the case.
As for Eggsy being carried by his teammates in turns, the reporter gave a reason, saying that Eggsy's ankle must have been sprained, and his teammates must have been lacking in energy after the game, so they began to take turns carrying Eggsy away from the Allianz Arena.
Such speculation can only be described as "reasonable", and Eggsy himself almost believed it when he saw it. But today he was not in the club, but appeared in Ronaldo's car, and your destination is France.
To be honest, Eggsy doesn't have any good impression of France, but this time it was Ronaldo who brought him here, and Eggsy had little Chris in his arms.
The reason why Eggsy was invited to come is because he is also one of the candidates today. However, both Ronaldo and Eggsy know that Eggsy is too young and just won the Golden Boy Award this year. Logically, he should not be given this award.
But Eggsy, who received the invitation, still had to come, so Zidane specially greeted Ronaldo, who was also selected, and asked them to go together.
But now Eggsy was sitting in Ronaldo's car with a bright mobile phone in his hand. His fingers were tapping on the phone. Eggsy smiled at the screen from time to time, which surprised Ronaldo a little.
“Who are you talking to?”
Eggsy looked at Ronaldo and smiled: "I'm chatting in a group, there seem to be a lot of people here."
This made Ronaldo narrow his eyes: "I am also in the Real Madrid group chat."
Eggsy smiled and said, "No, Muller asked me to join yesterday. There are also Reus and Dybala."
Ronaldo looked surprised. When did you get the other person's phone number when you beat him up yesterday? And what does this mean? In addition to the Premier League, there are players from the Bundesliga, Serie A, and La Liga here, covering players from all positions. What is this for?
Perhaps Ronaldo's expression made his confusion very clear, so Eggsy said: "After the game, when I was lying on the ground, he passed by me and gave me his phone number."
Seeing that Ronaldo seemed unconvinced, Eggsy continued to explain: "I was also quite confused at first, but today I was dragged into this group by Muller, and then I found that there were many people in it, and they should all be players with no major problems."
Although Eggsy was explaining, his eyes were still on the screen of his mobile phone, because Dybala was chatting happily with Eggsy.
"...As for what to wear to tomorrow's award ceremony?" Ronaldo couldn't help but glance at Eggsy's phone screen, and then saw an ID called 'Didi is a little anxious', which was constantly typing.
"Eggsy, don't you need to get your formal gown tailored tomorrow?"
When Eggsy saw what Dybala said, he immediately sorted out all the clothes in his closet in his mind and immediately realized a problem.
"Although I'm a runner-up, I don't seem to have a dress."
C Luo laughed out loud when he heard this. The dress that Eggsy wore last time he came to France was destroyed in that attack. What would he do this time?
Before Ronaldo could introduce Eggsy to him or ask his agent to help him think of a solution, Mueller on Eggsy's phone said enthusiastically, "What a coincidence. I also want to order a custom-made suit. Although the French like to talk about art in everything, the clothes they make are really good."
As a genuine German, Muller certainly doesn't like the French style of being full of artistic cells. But his group is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Just after he finished speaking, Griezmann, who had been silent all the time, suddenly jumped out.
It's Brother, Not Gezi: I'm really not surprised at all when you say this. After all, you Germans don't have any artistic talent at all. Buying art is probably like buying sausages, you just jump around, right?
Wagner, who was diving on the other side, suddenly jumped out and even gave Griezmann a thumbs up.
This made Muller a little angry, but Reus on the other side also spoke up: The French team is arrogant?
What Eggsy didn't expect was that another person also burst out. Eggsy took a closer look and felt that he looked familiar.
Varane: The German team is also very arrogant. Don't be anxious now. The group stage will be next month. Can we practice then?
Mueller had no more provocative words now. After all, they were all young people and they could just fight if they didn't agree.
However, Eggsy was really a little surprised when looking at his phone. He originally thought that the people Muller invited into the group were all young players, but now he found that there were quite a lot of people.
Just now Ronaldo said that there are so many players here, but now looking at it again, I suddenly feel speechless.
"Why do I feel that this group is a little weird?" Ronaldo held his chin. He didn't quite understand the situation for a moment so he didn't say anything rashly.
Because there were still many people lurking, the group of more than 60 people had returned to silence. But Eggsy had already started looking through the names of the people in the group. Many people in the group used nicknames or online names. Eggsy couldn't guess who the teacher was, but he could still tell who some of the names belonged to.
When Eggsy saw that Benzema was among the group, Ronaldo was completely stunned!
“They didn’t even call me!”
The anger and humiliation of being excluded made Mr. Luo's face turn red in an instant.
At this time, Eggsy studied the group for a while, then suddenly looked at Ronaldo very seriously and said, "...Chris, I think it's normal that they didn't invite you to join the group..."
After hearing what Eggsy said, Ronaldo suddenly turned cold. He looked at Eggsy in disbelief. Perhaps he didn't expect Eggsy to say such a thing.
All the efforts of the past six months have been in vain?
However, just as Ronaldo was surprised, Eggsy suddenly said: "These seem to be players from various countries participating in the World Cup."
It would have been fine if he hadn't said this, but once he did, Ronaldo got even angrier: "What? Didn't my Portuguese team make it to the World Cup?"
Eggsy smiled and said, "But the countries in the group are all countries that have won the World Cup..."
Ronaldo blinked suddenly and asked Eggsy: "British team too...?"
"In 1966, the British team was the World Cup champion." How could Eggsy not understand what Ronaldo meant? Although the Three Cats Army is not doing well now, it is a fact that they were once the World Cup champions.
At this moment, there was a sudden silence in the car, which was really better than words. Bugui Eggsy could see that Ronaldo was angry, but he knew that he was definitely not angry with him, so he said boldly: "I think this year Portugal..."
C Ronaldo turned his head sharply to look at Eggsy, and immediately swallowed back the remaining half sentence in Eggsy's mouth that said there was hope for Portugal too.
I feel like I'm really sorry for Ronaldo if I really say this.
"Don't be discouraged. The national team's situation is really not something that can be reversed by just two of us."
Eggsy patted Ronaldo on the shoulder and said it sincerely, but Ronaldo had no choice because Eggsy was telling the truth after all.
This is indeed something he may never be able to do in his entire life. After all, football is a team activity, and it is difficult for one person to be able to stand alone and turn the tide.
Don't even think about it in a place like the World Cup where you're surrounded by strong teams. It's almost impossible.
Tonight, Eggsy and Ronaldo went to the property Ronaldo bought in Paris. Ronaldo originally planned to take his son and Eggsy out for a bite to eat, but Eggsy checked the kitchen and refrigerator as soon as he entered the house and quickly stopped Ronaldo.
"There are really a lot of food in your refrigerator. We're going back tomorrow, so I guess we won't be able to eat so much, right?"
When Ronaldo saw the wide variety of dishes in the refrigerator, he immediately knew that this was the work of his housing manager. Probably because they didn't know Ronaldo's arrangements and thought they would stay for a while, so they prepared so much food.
"And oysters?" When Ronaldo saw the refrigerator full of high-end ingredients, he was reluctant to give them up. "I have to find a way to eat all of them."
Little Chris looked at the food in the refrigerator and immediately started grabbing Eggsy's arm and shaking it: "Brother Eggsy, I want to eat. I want to eat what you made last time."
Eggsy quickly leaned down and pinched little Chris's face: "Okay, I'll make you a tender steak."
But after he finished speaking, Eggsy looked at Ronaldo who was typing frantically and suddenly had a bad feeling: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing this time?"
At this time, Ronaldo laughed and said: "Nothing, I'm just calling people~"
At this time, all the players who came to France to participate in the Golden Ball Awards have more or less received Ronaldo's invitation information from Ronaldo himself or other colleagues, saying that he will invite everyone to have a simple meal at his house tonight.
Well, although many people are not familiar with Ronaldo, they all think this sudden invitation is quite interesting, so nearly half of them chose to accept the invitation, even including Messi, Ronaldo's strong rival for the Golden Ball.
