Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 185 There is always a feeling of falling into a pit

"Mr. Marquis, I'm very busy. If you have anything to say, just talk on the phone."

"Bastard, get out of here, or I'll call your mother!"

"you"

Stephen still wanted to talk, but the Marquis of Bath had already hung up the phone.

In order not to let his cheap father disturb his mother's peaceful life, Stephen had no choice but to come to Longleat Manor, which he was familiar with but unfamiliar, after get off work.

"What did you call me here for?"

Seeing his cheap dad, Stephen said impatiently that he just wanted to get out of this nasty place as soon as possible.

"Did you see your Uncle Van Der Litt at the club today?"

The Marquis of Bath knew that his illegitimate son had always been dissatisfied with him, but he didn't care.

In fact, even the son born to his legal wife, the so-called legitimate son who could inherit his title, did not have a good relationship with him.

"Uncle Vander Lit? You mean Mr. Vander Lit, the owner of the William II Club who went to the Crystal Palace Club today."

"That's right, he hugged you here when you were young."

"I don't remember. If you have anything to say, just tell me, I still have something to do."

It upsets Stephen to hear Cheap Daddy talk about his childhood.

"Okay. Bernard told Chen Ran about his granddaughter Catherine, right?"

Seeing Stephen's impatient look, the Marquis of Bath shrugged helplessly. Knowing that he was not welcomed by his son, he simply stopped going around.

"What do you want to do?"

Hearing Dad Cheap mentioned this matter, Stephen immediately became alert.

"It's nothing, you can help match Chen Ran and Catherine. If this matter is completed, it will be good for Chen Ran himself and the Crystal Palace Club."

The Marquis of Bath poured himself a glass of red wine and drank it. He was confident in persuading Stephen.

As long as Chen Ran nods, he will have a beautiful woman and a large fortune.

This kind of good thing is dreamed of by others, and only fools push it out.

"Whether to accept Mr. Van der Lit's proposal should be decided by Chen Ran himself. This matter is his private matter, and I will not interfere."

Stephen shook his head firmly.

Chen Ran and Cheryl have been together for more than two years, and they have always been very good. He is not willing to be a villain who breaks up the marriage of friends.

"Stephen, there is a reason why Bernard wants to match his granddaughter and Chen Ran."

Therefore, the Marquess of Bath said that Van der Litt had advanced liver cancer, and there was not much time left;
And his granddaughter Catherine lost her parents since she was a child, and has some autistic tendencies;

In addition, Van der Lit was worried that no one would take care of Catherine after his death, etc., and told Stephen in detail.

Of course, he didn't forget to praise Catherine's excellence.

After listening to the introduction of the Marquis of Bath, Stephen stopped talking for a while.

From Van der Lit's point of view, it's completely understandable that he did so.

And he has a very good eye, he picked Chen Ran at a glance.

As Chen Ran's friend, Stephen knows how capable Chen Ran is than anyone else.

But, do you really want to persuade Chen Ran and Cheryl to break up because of Catherine?

Stephen hesitated.

The Marquis of Bath watched his son sitting there frowning and said nothing, knowing that what he said just now had an effect.

It was rare to see Stephen sitting in front of him obediently. The Marquis of Bath couldn't help but feel a little proud. He drank the red wine in his hand and had another glass.

After an unknown amount of time, Stephen finally looked up at the Marquis of Bath.

"I will only suggest that Chen go to meet that Catherine. As for whether he will go or what choice he will make, I will not intervene in any way."

"How about just seeing each other? You."

Hearing that Stephen gave himself this answer after thinking for a long time, the Marquis of Bath was very dissatisfied.The good mood just now disappeared in an instant.

However, as soon as he spoke halfway, he was immediately interrupted by Stephen.

"There's only so much I can do. Don't push yourself too far, Mr. Marquis."

"Bastard! Have you ever talked to your father like this?"

"Then have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a father?"

The words were not speculative, and the father and son began to jack up the bull while talking.

Stephen didn't want to come to this place at all, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he got up and was about to leave.

"Stephen, there is one thing you need to think about. Your father and I, a veteran Marquis, still have some energy in the British Empire. Do you think the Crystal Palace Club is developing too smoothly?"

Hearing the gloomy voice of the Marquis of Bath coming from behind, Stephen's footsteps about to step out of the door paused for a moment, and then walked out at a faster speed.

Stephen, who left Langtley Manor, had been thinking about his cheap father's last words, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something might happen.

People outside may think that his cheap father is a maverick playboy, but only those around him know how terrible the Marquis of Bath is.

After doing so many deviant things, his position as marquis is still as stable as Mount Tai.

Whether it is the British royal family or the British government, it is as if they have not seen it.

Although he didn't know how much energy his cheap father had, Stephen knew one thing very well.

That is, "Maybe the Marquis of Bath's energy is not enough to accomplish one thing, but he can definitely make one thing impossible."

Thinking of this, Stephen didn't bother to go home, so he made an appointment with Chen Ran directly.

"Stephen, it's rare that you actually invited me to the bar. I thought only Louis could do this kind of thing."

Because it was inconvenient for Cheryl to know about this matter, Stephen had to call Chen Ran to the bar where they had been before.

Stephen asked for a private room, and then drove all the service staff out.

Seeing these abnormal behaviors of his friends, Chen Ran immediately became serious.

It seems that Stephen asked himself out tonight because he has something to talk about.

And judging from this posture, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter.

"Stephen, tell me, what happened?"

"Googling."

Stephen picked up a bottle of beer and took a big gulp.

"Chen, do you still remember that Mr. Van der Lit who came to our club a few days ago?"

"Of course I remember, what's wrong?"

"Things are troublesome. He is an old friend of my father. Today my father found me and asked me to match you with Mr. Vanderliet's granddaughter Catherine. I didn't want to, and then he threatened to attack our Crystal Palace club."

"what?"

Hearing Stephen's words, Chen Ran's expression changed drastically.

He doesn't know how powerful the Marquis of Bath is, but as an old British aristocrat who has been passed down for hundreds of years, no one knows how deep his network of contacts is.

Compared with the Marquess of Bath, Ferguson's kind of jazz is a joke.

"Wouldn't that old man Van der Lit instigate this matter?"

Thinking of the old man with the white beard, Chen Ran became furious.

Temiao's original very simple thing has now developed into this.

Pit father ah.

"Probably not."

So, Stephen recounted everything that the Marquis of Bath told him about Vander Lit's condition, Catherine's condition, and Vander Lit's concerns.

Hearing this, Chen Ran finally understood why Vander Litt insisted on matching himself and his granddaughter.

Ordinarily, Chen Ran should be happy about this kind of pie in the sky.

But why is he feeling a little dumbfounded now?

It seems that it's all the fault of being too good.

"Chen, what do you think should be done now?"

Seeing that Chen Ran didn't look very troubled, Stephen couldn't help asking.But I was secretly guessing in my heart, this guy couldn't be moved, right?

"Stephen, isn't Mr. Van der Lit just worried that no one will take care of Catherine after he dies?"

"That's right, why? Chen, are you going to agree to Mr. Vanderliet's proposal and date that Catherine?"

While speaking, Stephen looked carefully at Chen Ran's expression, as if he wanted to see his inner thoughts.

"That's not true. In our country of China, there is a form called righteous brothers and sisters. You can understand it as brothers and sisters who are not related by blood. Catherine and I can also adopt this method. After Mr. Vanderlit leaves, I will You can also justifiably take care of Catherine."

"are you serious?"

After Chen Ran explained in detail for a long time, Stephen finally understood what Chen Ran meant.

However, Stephen still gave Chen Ran a weird look. Can this guy really resist such a big temptation?

"Otherwise? Can you think of a better way? I don't want to test how much energy your dad has."

"This is indeed the best way, but I don't know if Mr. Vander Litt accepts it."

"Well, go and stabilize your father first. I will personally talk to the old man with the white beard about this matter."

"ok, I get it."

After sending Stephen away, Chen Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

What is this all about?
Such a bloody plot would actually happen to him, the reality is even more bizarre than the novel.

For the big beauty who fell from the sky, it would be a lie to say that you are not impressed.

It's just that Chen Ran has self-knowledge. He is a novice in terms of emotions, and he has devoted most of his energy to his football career.

Cheryl is fine and he loves it.

People must be content, otherwise they will harm others and themselves.

He learned from Stephen that Van der Litt is currently undergoing a comprehensive physical examination at the King's College Hospital in London, and Chen Ran went to the hospital to visit the old man with the white beard the next day with flowers.

"Haha, Chen, you are finally here. How is it? Have you considered it? Let me tell you, my granddaughter will definitely be your most suitable partner."

Van der Litt, who was so bored in the hospital that he wanted to run away, couldn't stop talking when he saw Chen Ran coming, and dragged him to talk endlessly.

"Mr. Vanderlit, I've thought about it. I like my current girlfriend very much, and I don't intend to break up with her. Therefore, I can only refuse your kindness, and I am very sorry."

"Ah? Chen, do you want to think about it again? Don't rush to make a decision. I'm not in a hurry."

Vander Lit really hoped that Chen Ran could be his grandson-in-law, and when he saw Chen Ran directly rejecting him, he became a little anxious.

"Mr. Vanderlit, don't worry. Stephen told me all your worries. Although I can't agree to your proposal, I have also come up with a solution to your troubles."

"Oh? In what way?"

Van der Lit was taken aback for a moment, and asked curiously.

Therefore, Chen Ran explained to Vander Lit the set of arguments he told Stephen last night.

After listening, Van der Lit also gave Chen Ran a weird look, but he was no longer as excited as before.

After rolling his eyeballs around, Vander Lit nodded slowly.

"Your method is not impossible. In this way, I will let Catherine come to London, and the two of you will meet and get acquainted. Then, under the witness of everyone, we will formally establish the relationship."

What does it mean to "formalize the relationship"?Why did Van der Litt's words sound so awkward?
Chen Ran always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find anything wrong.

After all, two people who became righteous brothers and sisters couldn't have never met each other, right?

So it was only normal for Van der Liet to call Catherine to London.

"Since Mr. Van der Lit agreed to my proposal, can the cooperation between the William II Club and Crystal Palace continue to advance?"

"Haha, Chen, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I almost forgot that my William II is about to be demoted."

"."

Chen Ran looked at the laughing Vander Lit with black lines all over his head. The old man came to London not for the William II Club, but for a blind date for his granddaughter.

"Since the situation of the Willem II club is urgent, why don't we hurry up and negotiate, and I can send Crystal Palace players to help as soon as possible."

"Ahem, don't worry about it. Before I came to London, I had already transferred the ownership of the William II Club to Catherine. After she arrives in London, you two can discuss it yourself. Anyway, you will be a family soon, no matter what Can."

"."

Looking at the smiling Van der Litt, Chen Ran always had the feeling that he had fallen into a pit.

These old foxes have all become spirits.

Compared with them, I am still too simple.

Boys must protect themselves when they go out, be careful, be careful, be careful.

Not long after Chen Ran left the hospital, the Marquis of Bath also came to the hospital to visit Vander Lit.

"Alexander, guess who came just now?"

Vander Lit smiled like a weasel who stole a chicken.

"Seeing how happy you are, could it be that little guy from Huaguo is here?"

"Bingo! Alexander, I didn't expect you to grow in intelligence at this age."

"Get out. What? That little guy agreed to your proposal?"

"No. But he made a new proposal."

"Oh? What proposal?"

The Marquis of Bath also asked curiously.

Then, Van der Lit told the Marquis of Bath about Chen Ran's set of things.

"This"
