Gu Ran's three questions go straight to the essence of this conversation.

Emenalo was a little caught off guard by the question.

He thought that by offering a "sky-high" contract with a weekly salary of 4,000 pounds, he would be able to stun a high school student like Gu Ran who had never been exposed to a professional contract.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ran was not interested at all!

Emenalo quickly calmed himself down and adjusted his glasses with an awkward expression. "It's like this, my dear Gu. We at Chelsea are really optimistic about you. We can also help you apply for a work permit, but...how should I put it? Chelsea is a very large club with many rules and regulations. If I want to use the genius clause for you, it's not up to me alone. The club's top management needs to hold a meeting and discuss it."

...So, it is difficult for Chelsea to even use the genius clause for me, let alone apply for a work permit for me.

That's the reality.

Gu Ran nodded slightly and said with a smile: "I understand."

Emenalo seemed to have been caught in a sore spot, and smiled helplessly: "Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that the fact is that Chelsea really can't do it. Chelsea is not a small club like Southampton. Chelsea has too many rules. By the time the senior management finishes the argument, regardless of the result, the new season may be halfway through."

"What's more, Gu, you really have no advantage in front of the genius clause, because you don't have a growth record in the youth training camp. It's really hard for Chelsea to activate the genius clause for you just based on an amateur game. And...even if Chelsea can really activate the genius clause for you in the end, the five rogue members of the English Football Association will not give Chelsea's application a green light."

Gu Ran nodded again.

Gu Ran was actually mentally prepared for this result.

——At least, Emenalo didn't fool around like the scouts from small clubs.

Without a work permit, it means that no matter how high the weekly salary Chelsea offers, he can only go to the youth team.

Going to Chelsea's youth team means that he will not be able to play in official matches or train with the first-team stars.

Without resources, what’s the use of giving more money?

Gu Ran was about to speak when Emenalo quickly said, “Gu, the contract we can give you is only a youth team contract, but it is definitely a top-level youth team contract. You have no youth training experience before, but we can give you this experience. After you have trained at Chelsea for one year, we will loan you to a small European club for training. In this way, after the three-year contract is up, you can return to Chelsea’s first team. At that time, you will be only 20 years old, which is the best age. You will become a top star at Chelsea!”

...This cake is tasteless.

Let’s just forget it…

Resources are above everything else, everything else is meaningless.

How should I put it about this period with Chelsea? The vision is beautiful, but let’s just treat it as a romantic encounter.

Gu Ran had already made up his mind.

Gu Ran then said politely: "Mr. Emenalo, thank you for your attention, and thank you Chelsea Club for offering me such an expensive contract."

"You are a very good scout with a good vision. Really, I believe that with your ability, you can become Chelsea's sports director in the future."

"Your recognition and affirmation of me makes me very happy and excited. Your encouragement also motivates me to bravely move towards the professional path."

"but……"

Emenalo was just listening happily when Gu Ran suddenly said "but", and Emenalo was completely stunned.

Gu Ran continued, "However, for me, what I need more now is the experience of professional games, so I pay more attention to how much training resources the club can give me - including exclusive coaches, first-team appearances, etc."

"Chelsea are fantastic but I'm sorry..."

"May we have a chance to work together again."

This is equivalent to saying: You are a good person, but we are not suitable! After saying this, Gu Ran was ready to get up and leave.

Emenalo suddenly became anxious, "No! No! Gu, don't leave yet! Don't rush to make a decision! Please listen to me! The offer I just gave you is just my own idea, not Chelsea's final conclusion! We can add money! How much do you want, just name the price! You set the conditions, and I will find a way!"

Gu Ran smiled and said, "Mr. Emenalo, I have made it very clear just now. This is not about money at all. What I want is resources."

Emenalo said with embarrassment: "But you have no experience in professional youth training, and you have no experience in professional games. In our Chelsea, it is impossible for you to have an appearance rate!"

Gu Ran shrugged, "So, we are not destined to be together."

Emenalo said anxiously: "Gu! Listen to me first. In Chelsea, many things are beyond my control, but I can still report them to the person who can make the decision. Please wait a little longer. Give me a week and I will report your request!"

Gu Ran thought for a moment and said calmly, "Sorry, one week is too long. I don't have that much time to waste on contract matters. I can only give you one day at most."

Emenalo nodded quickly. "Okay, okay! One day is fine! Let's leave a phone number. After one day, no matter what the result is, I will give you a reply. Please wait for me for 24 hours!"

"All right."

I have to say, although there is a high probability that he will not go to Chelsea in the end, the feeling of being able to control the big guys of a top club is really great.

Gu Ran "reluctantly" agreed and exchanged phone numbers with Emenalo.

"Gu, let's contact each other by phone. Bye!"

Emenalo said goodbye to Gu Ran quickly, then ran out of the visiting team's locker room in a hurry.

Let’s put aside and not watch tonight’s World Cup match!

He would drive back to Chelsea's office immediately, compile a detailed written report about Gu Ran, and submit it to Sister NO overnight! Gu Ran must come to Chelsea! Must!!! Emenalo felt his blood boiling, and his long-dormant fighting spirit was ignited! ——When Emenalo walked to the exit of the stadium, he happened to meet Old Rice, Carter, and Adkins who came out from the other side.

The four of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere froze instantly! Both sides subconsciously tensed their bodies—

The next second, Emenalo nodded politely, and Old Rice and others also nodded slightly in return.

“…Let’s go?”

"Yeah, let's go."

"... Come often."

"Okay, okay."

Both sides walked out of the stadium exit in a hypocritical friendly atmosphere, and then went their separate ways!

At this moment, both sides had only one thought: snatch him away! Snatch Gu Ran away!!!

at the same time.

Gu Ran knocked on the door of the therapy room, "Annie? Are you there?"

The door of the therapy room opened quickly, and a white arm stretched out suddenly. Before Gu Ran could react, he was pulled in.

Bang! The door of the treatment room closed, and Anne's flaming red lips kissed him wildly! Damn...

Is that too urgent?

I have been holding it in for several days...

Gu Ran said: "Annie...you must be getting impatient, right?"

Annie's pretty face flushed. "Well... Gu, do you know? The hour after the game was the longest hour in my life... I missed you so much. I have never wanted you so much."

Who can refuse the goddess's request? Who can?

Gu Ran picked Annie up! Annie said quickly: "Gu, let's... go home quickly."

Gu Ran took Annie over the wall and left.

Although there might not be anyone from the GR fan club at the school gate at this time, it’s still better to be safe.

Gu Ran is now considered a local celebrity. If he were to be discovered dating Anne Hathaway again, it would cause an uproar.

...Annie's posture of climbing over the wall was clumsy, but it also had a coquettish charm.

Gu Ran was admiring Annie as she climbed over the wall, when he suddenly thought of a technical question.

He wants to strengthen Catwoman's role in "Batman 3: The Dark Knight Rises", but can Anne handle Catwoman's exaggerated body movements?

Gu Ran then asked, "Annie, can you do the splits?"

Annie, who was climbing over the wall with her hips raised, was stunned. "Huh?"

Gu Ran added: "Also, I don't know what that move is called, it's the move of kicking one leg from behind to the top of the head, do you know how to do it?"

Anne's face flushed. "Hate it! So you like that... I can do it. I can do it."

"Huh?" Gu Ran was stunned.

Oh shit!

Annie, you misunderstood me!

I'm just designing fighting moves for Catwoman!

I don't want you to do that to me--

etc!

You really can?! Tsk tsk…

Then I must try it carefully when I get back! Gu Ran suddenly became impatient.

Signing a contract with Southampton is not so urgent! Then I heard Annie shyly say: "You, you help me first, I can't get down again."

Oh, my little kitty.

Gu Ran swiftly flipped over and took Annie down from the low wall.

Annie leaned on Gu Ran coquettishly, "Let's go."

Gu Ran put his arms around Annie's waist and hips, which swayed with every step, found the Porsche Cayenne, and drove home.

After arriving home, Annie went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Gu Ran followed in.

The two of them soaked in a bathtub that could accommodate four people at the same time.

"Are you tired after playing in the rain today?" Annie asked.

Gu Ran smiled and said, "It is indeed more tiring than all the previous competitions."

Playing in the rain and fighting hard, Gu Ran almost couldn't hold on until the injury time.

"Oh," Annie said distressedly, "Then you should have a good rest today."

Gu Ran quickly said: "It's okay, I can do it."

Annie chuckled and didn't respond.

After taking a shower, Annie considerately brought a clean bath towel and carefully wiped Gu Ran clean from head to toe.

While wiping Gu Ran's feet, Annie even squatted down to help him wipe them.

Holy shit…

This feeling of conquest is so cool!

Annie smiled mischievously, "Wait a minute, I need to change my clothes first."

After holding it in for so long, Gu Ran couldn't stand it anymore, "Why are you still wearing clothes?"

Annie smiled and said, "I'll give you a surprise."

Oh shit!

We are all so familiar with each other, so there is still a surprise? Wait... Can you translate for me, what is a surprise?

Gu Ran hugged Annie and said, "Can we not surprise her?"

Annie said coquettishly, "No!"

Gu Ran took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll come find you later."

After Annie left, Gu Ran also used the liquid nitrogen freezing space capsule and sauna steam room.

The effect of ice and fire on physical recovery is very obvious.

After today's game, Gu Ran obtained 1 physical growth point, which meant he had recovered a small part of his physical strength.

In addition to his physical fitness base of 73 points, his own recovery speed is much faster than before. Now, after recovery in the liquid nitrogen freezing space capsule and the sauna steam room, Gu Ran's current physical condition has recovered by at least one third.

With his current physical condition, he definitely can't play football, but Gu Ran is still confident that Annie's voice will linger in his mind for three days.

After all...in addition to physical fitness, we also have technology that is 12 years ahead.

So, what will be Annie's surprise?

Gu Ran took a deep breath, pushed the door and walked into Annie's master bedroom on the first floor. Then he was stunned! WTF...

——The beautiful Anne was lying on the big bed. She was wearing a Japanese maid outfit and a pair of white stockings on her legs!

Oh my god…

Am I dreaming? The goddess is wearing a maid outfit for me! At this moment, Gu Ran felt that his blood was rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!

This scene... is so beautiful that I dare not blink! "Is it beautiful?" Annie asked tenderly.

Gu Ran nodded and swallowed subconsciously, "...It's not good-looking, it's stunningly beautiful."

Annie said coquettishly: "Then what are you waiting for?"

…

Alas, I deleted 800 words... There should be another chapter in the evening.
