Chapter 152 Team Dinner (2)

The night covers the whole of Portugal, but the capital Lisbon is always so bright. Brilliant lights shine over the entire city. Pedestrians are still coming and going on the streets, and even the sound of car horns on the road has never stopped. However, the classical and elegant buildings dotted in the city make people feel sincerely peaceful. This is the night in Lisbon, noisy and romantic.

On the street, a man and a woman were walking slowly forward. The man was dressed in casual formal clothes, with slightly pointed cheeks, looking a little immature but mature. The woman was wearing high stockings and black leather shoes, and with her pair of gold-rimmed glasses, she looked like a fashionable strong woman. They were of course Wang Li and Rita.

"What, you said you were going to a dinner party and would take me with you?" Rita shouted in surprise.

"Yes, David said that we should have a dinner together today. It would be a shame not to go. Anyway, they all brought their girlfriends, so you can go with me." Wang Li stared straight at the woman in front of him, hiding his inner panic with jealousy. It was almost like a confession.

Rita obviously didn't expect that this usually naive boy would say something like this, "Then shouldn't you take the little princess with you?"

"She's not here, you know." Wang Li spread his hands, but he regretted it as soon as he said it.

"Then go by yourself!" Rita turned around and walked back after hearing this. What did she mean by she wasn't there? Did she mean she was just a temporary substitute? Even though she liked the boy in front of her and knew he had a girlfriend, it was still hard to hear such words.

Wang Li hurried forward and held her hand. He didn't want to offend Rita because of this. "Oh, sorry, you know, that's not what I meant."

A strong big hand held her left hand, which made Rita, who had never been in love, feel a little shy. She looked at the anxious expression of the big boy in front of her and thought that he still cared about her. Thinking of this, she felt much calmer. Anyway, she was familiar with the members of the wives' group, so it didn't matter if she went once, she comforted herself.

"You said you would treat me to dinner today, but then it turned out that I had to accompany you to the dinner party. So, by this calculation, you have to treat me twice more to pay me off!" Rita said with a cunning smile.

Hearing her say this, Wang Li was stunned, then turned around and reacted, grinning and said, "No problem, if you get tired of eating in restaurants outside, come to my house after you return to England, my father's Chinese food is great." As he said that, he gave a thumbs up with his left hand, but he didn't let go of Rita's hand with his right hand, and kept pulling her forward. In fact, he was still a little flustered, but Rita didn't object, so of course he didn't care. The 'love master' Bridget told him that a man must be thick-skinned enough, and he is still in the learning stage.

"Chinese food? Uncle Wang can cook?" Rita thought about how Wang Hai cooked and burst out laughing. She wanted to cover her mouth with her hand unconsciously, only to find that her hand was still held by Wang Li.

A blush immediately flashed across her face, and she shook her hands in shame and anger. Wang Licai scratched his head in embarrassment and added superfluous words, "I didn't notice." This made Rita burst out laughing.

The two walked along a busy commercial street and turned a corner, which was the wealthy area of ​​Lisbon. Most of the wealthy people in Portugal own properties there, and it is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land is worth a lot of money. Today's dinner was held in a small villa on the north side, which was borrowed by Beckham from his good friend Figo.

However, Wang Li, who seldom goes out, has a poor sense of direction. He took the address Rooney wrote to him and searched for a long time but couldn't find it. The styles of the villas here are not much different, and they are close to each other, which makes it even more difficult for him to find it. The two of them walked around the north side twice but still couldn't find it.

"Hey, Alan, here!"

At this moment, a shout came from behind. Wang Li turned around and saw Bridget waving at him. He immediately grabbed Rita's little hand again, ignored the slight struggle coming from her hand, and walked straight over.

"Alan, you're late! David has been asking for a long time just now, and everyone has been here for a long time." Bridger said while staring at Rita beside Wang Li, and glanced at the hands they were holding. He felt a little sad in his heart, because he was the only one who was single today.

"Didn't you just get here?" Wang Li asked in confusion. In fact, he was just trying to annoy Bridget, holding hands to prove that he didn't come alone and wasn't isolated from the crowd like him. So far, it seems to be working well. Of course, another reason is the face issue. For men, this thing is very important.

Bridget sighed and said in annoyance, "Those women are so annoying. They keep chattering away. You know, I don't like noise, so I came out to get some fresh air and happened to see you guys."

"You don't like noise?" Wang Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing his words. "You feel you are isolated, right? Find another girlfriend as soon as possible, or ask those women in the room to introduce one to you. They must know a lot of beautiful women."

Bridget waved her hand, pointed at Rita and smiled, "Stop talking about this. Come on, you haven't introduced me yet?"

"My agent, Rita Andre Benn, is from Ukraine and is studying at the University of London." Wang Li said, and then quickly pointed at Bridget and said, "My teammate, Bridget, don't believe him. He is a famous playboy in England and just broke up with his ex-girlfriend."

"Shit! By the way, are you Wang Li's agent?" Bridget snickered, emphasizing the word "agent".

"Yes, hello!" However, Rita didn't buy his nonsense and just answered politely.

Bridget felt depressed, so he could only take Wang Li and the other person to the villa.

The living room of this small villa is indeed very lively. There are a lot of food in the house, as well as many candles and floral decorations. The most eye-catching thing is the pyramid of cups in the middle. This is not a dinner party, but a small cocktail party.

"How luxurious." Wang Li muttered to himself. However, he didn't have to pay for it. Eating and drinking for free was what he liked most.

Just as Bridget said, Wang Li was indeed the last one to arrive. Seeing the two men come in, Beckham immediately came over and handed each of them a glass of wine, and then asked everyone in the room to raise their glasses together:

"Cheers to victory England!"

"cheers!"

This red wine, a specialty of Portugal, has a rich flavor and a sweet aroma, but it is very strong and generally difficult to finish in one gulp. At this time, all the men in the room had to drink it at Beckham's invitation. Of course, women were exceptions and they could do whatever they wanted.

For Wang Li, this was of course a piece of cake, as this alcohol had no effect on him at all.

After the group toast, Wang Li sat next to Rooney and chatted with a few teammates who he usually got along well with. However, the topics were generally around football. In fact, although these people knew each other, they were not familiar with each other. In addition to the training camp, they had only been together for more than 20 days.

However, at this moment, women were the protagonists in the room. A bunch of women chattered non-stop, and occasionally there were bursts of laughter. Speaking of which, the wives and girlfriends of these players were almost the focus of England. When they chatted together, they couldn't avoid topics in the entertainment industry such as movies, TV series, advertisements, etc. This made Rita feel a little unable to get a word in. In fact, she didn't know much about the entertainment industry at all.

"Bridget, I heard that there's a Portuguese female singer named Furtado who's dating you. How's it going?" The topic between men always revolves around women. In a blink of an eye, Gary Neville turned the topic to Bridget, the only single man.

After hearing this, the teammates next to him also came over with interest and cast admiring eyes at Bridge. Just about ten days after arriving in Portugal, the "broken" relationship has progressed in other directions. This speed is really admirable. No wonder the whole of England knows that he is a playboy.

"How is that possible? Who told you that?" Bridget retorted immediately as if his tail had been caught.

"Before today's game, I saw you getting out of a white car and kissing that woman goodbye!" Gary Neville said as he tried to use Wang Li as an example.

"Sorry! I don't like men." Wang Li raised his hand and covered his mouth.

After hearing Gary Neville's detailed account, everyone believed that it was true and joked, "How long will it take this time? Wayne, let's make a bet. I bet one month and 300 pounds."

"No way. I think we'll be done before we go back to England. 500 pounds."

"Are you going to break up now?" Wang Li also came over and said something that made Bridget very depressed.

"Oh!! Shit!! I'm serious this time!" Bugili emphasized anxiously.

"I'd be surprised if I believed you!"

"Oh, another beautiful girl fell into the devil's clutches, but unfortunately no prince came to rescue her." Irving sighed, "By the way, is Furtado 26 years old already? That means it becomes a story of the queen conquering the little boy. Wayne, you are passive this time, haha." As he spoke, the teammates around him burst into laughter.

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Wang Li thought, isn't it the same for him and Rita, the queen and the little boy? Thinking about the feeling of holding Rita's little hand just now, it seems pretty good...
