Chapter 75 Treating Guests(1/2)

After Chu Zhongtian decided to take the initiative, he deliberately asked for nothing to talk to Menez during training. Anyway, they were in a group.

Moreover, this matter cannot be delayed. The more you delay it, the more it will be disadvantageous to the team. The team is currently full of injuries and is increasing. Just yesterday's training, Korean shooter Ahn Jung-hwan was injured again. He performed poorly this season except for the first game of the substitute, and he has been depressed. South Korean media have always argued for Ahn Jung-hwan that it was because of injuries, but he didn't expect that Ahn Jung-hwan was really injured.

Under the current circumstances, the team really needs a new force. Even if the game against Nancy did not allow Menez to be on the roster, wouldn't it be necessary in the future?

Unless the head coach Fernandez wants to sell Menez, he will not do this. Chu Zhongtian carefully analyzed the head coach's intentions. He believed that the head coach Fernandez did this to make Menez calm down alone, but Menez may not be able to think about the problem as he hoped. Perhaps he will become more and more extreme in thinking and will run to a completely opposite direction.

At this time, someone needs to pull his thoughts back.

Will Coach Fernandez?

Obviously not, because he got rid of this matter to Chu Zhongtian. It was obvious that no one else was more suitable for this matter except Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian felt that if you want Menez to integrate into the team, you must first know what he is thinking, so that you can prescribe the right medicine. He decided to invite Menez to his house as a guest. Of course, he was also mentally prepared to be rejected by this arrogant genius. If you are rejected, you will find another opportunity to invite him next time. It is not a matter of killing people, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

During the training interval, when he sent such an invitation to Menez, Menez was very surprised.

He stared at Chu Zhongtian with wide eyes, as if he had seen an alien.

But he didn't refuse immediately. Chu Zhongtian thought it was a good omen.

So he smiled, "What's wrong? Is my treat incredible?"

"Uh...no." Menez didn't know what to say.

"So you don't have time?"

"...Not..." Menez answered honestly with a reflexive response, and then he regretted it a little. He accidentally told the truth, and now he had no excuse to refuse - he said directly that he didn't want to go? If someone else came to invite him, he would definitely do this, but Chu was different. At least this person would greet him every day when he met. He was the only person in the team who did this. Since he had this relationship, it would be difficult for him to refuse directly.

Chu Zhongtian looked at him with a smile. He had carefully considered this question. He was betting on whether Menez felt about him or not. If Menez was disgusted with him and had just done it before, then when he asked him if he was not available, he should say "not available" without hesitation. His answer was "not available", which means that he did not hate him at least.

"Then let's just say that, I'll invite you to my house to eat Chinese food tomorrow!" Chu Zhongtian slapped.

Menez opened his mouth, but finally did not refuse to say anything.

Ribery heard Chu Zhongtian clapping her hands, turned her head and looked over. He found Chu Zhongtian laughing. He didn't know what this kid was going to do... After the training, in the locker room, while Menez was taking a shower, Ribery asked him what was going on in the training ground just now. Chu Zhongtian told him that he wanted to invite Menez to his house for dinner.

Ribery stared at Chu Zhongtian with wide eyes, just like looking at an alien.

"You and Menez really have a tacit understanding, Frank." Chu Zhongtian teased Ribery.

Ribery made a disgusting expression, "Who wants to have a tacit understanding with him? Don't take him to our house!"

"Don't worry, I'm only at my house, I want to talk to him about my life ideals."

Ribery was gagging with her neck.

"You can walk home with him later!"

※※※Ribery did not drive the car to wait for Chu Zhongtian and Menez. He quickly took a shower and changed his clothes. After saying goodbye to everyone, he rushed out.

Of course, Chu Zhongtian would not walk back with Menez. He took out his phone and called Belmont twice, asking him to come to the Holy Mountain Forian Training Base to pick him up.

While waiting for the bus, the two of them suddenly couldn't find any topics to talk about. Chu Zhongtian was thinking about how to arrange the topics tonight, while Mei Nei was silent as usual.

The atmosphere was very embarrassing, but Chu Zhongtian couldn't concentrate on it. Just when he felt uncomfortable about it, he heard the roar of the life-saving engine.

For the first time, he thought that the modified taxi of Belmont was so cute. With that mouth that never knew the parking Belmont was there, the atmosphere would probably be much more lively.

"How long have you been waiting? I promise you must think this is a moment, right?" After stopping the car, Belmont jumped out of the car. As soon as he saw Chu Zhongtian and Menez, he started yelling.

To be honest, Chu Zhongtian didn't wait long, from calling to the car, it was only five minutes. But the awkward atmosphere of these five minutes had already made him feel uncomfortable. I really couldn't imagine if he could wait here silently for twenty minutes like a taxi like a normal taxi, and he could still eat that meal in the evening.

He suddenly felt that driving a fast train was not unhelpful... Belmont and Chu Zhongtian were old acquaintances and did not need to introduce themselves, but there was still a silent Menetz standing next to them.

Chu Zhongtian was not worried that Menez could continue to remain silent because Belmont was there, no one could be silent - even if you complain about his chatter, you would always speak, right?

"I'll introduce myself. My name is Escher de Belmont, a taxi driver, you can call me Escher." Belmont pointed at himself at Menez.

"Jeremy Menez." Menez's self-introduction was very brief.

He originally thought that the process of saying hello ended here, but he didn't expect that Belmont took a step forward enthusiastically, opened his hand and gave Menez a hug and a voucher.

Two "sucking" sounds, and half of the face came at the same time.

After kissing, Belmont patted Menez's back hard: "I've watched your game, you played pretty well, man!"

Chu Zhongtian felt that Belmont must be lying. Apart from showing off his feet and constantly seeking breakthroughs, Chu Zhongtian really didn't know what was worthy of praise for Menez's football.

"You are very talented, man! What a pity..." Belmont shrugged at this point, "...you haven't found the right way to use it."

Chu Zhongtian really wanted to laugh. He didn't arrange anything in advance. This was all Belmont's own truth, right? But when it came to his point, he secretly observed Menetz, and the boy was a little embarrassed. He was told by a fan who had met for the first time, and he was really unpredictable in terms of face.

He couldn't keep being so embarrassed, especially when outsiders were present. He coughed and reminded Belmont that he was rising: "Escher, we're going home."

"Ah? Ah! No problem!" Belmontra opened the car door and signaled everyone to get in the car. "If you are in a hurry, you will find the right one for me!"

Chu Zhongtian did not say this time: "We are not in a hurry!" He felt that letting Menez make a little fool of himself help break his extremely self-esteem defense.

But after getting in the car, he still kindly reminded Menez: "Fit your seat belt."

Menetz thinks this is common sense, so he wears a seat belt when getting in the car, so why do people need special reminders?

But he soon found out.

Amid Belmont's whistle like a cowboy, the black taxi rushed out. Just like Chu Zhongtian's performance on the day when he first came to Metz, Menetz was suddenly overwhelmed on the backrest of the seat. With the first turn, he turned to Chu Zhongtian sitting next to him.

Chu Zhongtian held the handle and performed much better than him.

Belmont was driving while chattering: "I said, man, your teammate is so inferior!" He saw Menetz's embarrassing look in the rearview mirror.

"Isn't it like this the first time I took your car?"

"I've heard his name - is he that very powerful young man? The youngest hat-trick player?" Belmont's words reached Menez's ears. He wanted to open his mouth and say something, but he was afraid of biting his tongue. He could only accept the evaluation of others in constant collisions. At the same time, he was looking forward to the other party praising him. He was still worried about being said by a taxi driver before, "I haven't found the right way to use his talents."

"Hey, man, you're really talented!"

Unfortunately, Belmont's evaluation of him ended here.

Next, Belmont and Chu Zhongtian talked enthusiastically about the Lorraine derby with Nancy. "I didn't watch the game, but I listened to the whole process! It's great, great, great!" He gave Chu Zhongtian behind him. "If you are a Frenchman, your performance in that game will be enough to be selected for the national team! Listen to me, man, keep playing like this! Metz will have a bright future! We won't fight for relegation this season, right?"

Chu Zhongtian nodded: "I think yes, I don't want to fight a relegation battle anymore."

Belmont laughed. "You and Frank are the core of our Mays, and I'm so glad that neither of you left after the end of last season."

Menetz listened to the two of them talking, and he was a little unwilling to accept it. When he was in Socio, the focus of France was on the topic of discussion last season. Now in Metz, a small northern town, a taxi driver only knew Ribery and Chu.

This gap made him unacceptable for a moment.

Chu Zhongtian and Belmont were chatting and laughing in the galloping car. Menetz, who was riding this taxi for the first time, could only roll around in the car while unwilling to give up.

※※Menez "rolled off" from the car. Because the car had just stopped at Chu Zhongtian's door, the back door was pushed open. Menenez rolled out and rushed out, ran to a trash can on the side of the road, and vomited.

Chu Zhongtian paid the fare in the car, and then gave Belmont a thumbs up: "Beautiful job, man!"

Belmont grinned at him, "Actually I can drive faster..."

Chu Zhongtian waved his hand quickly: "No! No matter how fast I'm going to be like him." Chu Zhongtian quietly pointed to Menez, who was still vomiting on the trash can.

Belmont muttered, "Okay, sorry..." He shrugged, "Although I don't know what to do, do what you want, man!"

After sending Belmont away, Chu Zhongtian stood behind Menez and patted him on the back, making him feel more comfortable.

"It's the same for the first time I took his car."

"Damn..." Menez even had a much less strength to curse.

"I came here too, ha!" He lied. Although he was in a very embarrassed car for the first time, he did not vomit.

“This experience can help you exercise balance.”

When Menetz heard this, he looked back at Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian looked at the residue hanging on the corner of his mouth and grinned: "Okay, I'm joking..." He handed over a tissue, "Do you still vomit?"

Menetz took the tissue and wiped his mouth, then shook his head.

"Let's go, welcome to my house!" Chu Zhongtian pointed to the courtyard gate in front. He also introduced to Menez: "The building next door is Frank Ribery's home."

Menez didn't react when he heard the name.

He took Menez into his home, Chu Zhongtian turned on the lights, and Menez was attracted by a glass wine cabinet placed opposite the door, and five bottles of champagne were neatly placed in the cabinet.

He glanced at the corner of his mouth. He thought Chu Zhongtian was a very professional player. He usually looked like he was training and playing so seriously, but he didn't expect that he was also a guy who liked to drink. "Do you like to drink?" he asked.

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "I can't say I like it, I can just drink it. But I haven't drunk it for a long time now."

He knew what Menetz thought of. French football is different from British football. In the British football circle, it is common for professional players to drink. Many people even think that professional players should drink. If they don’t drink, they are not qualified British players. The more they can drink, the greater their ability. For example, George Best (e_best), Paul Gascoigne, and former Arsenal captain Tony Adams (tony_alexander_adams), now England’s number one golden boy, Wayne_rooney. They all like to drink, and the first three even have a history of alcoholism.

But it is different in French football. They have strict restrictions. Unless at some special moments, professional players are not allowed to drink alcohol. Many young players have been taught not to be contaminated with alcohol since childhood. Although everyone always likes the things in the cup, they will not drink blatantly like English players, drink before the game, drink at halftime, drink in the locker room at the end of the game, drink at any time and anywhere. These are things that French players cannot do.

Menez doesn't drink.

Chu Zhongtian walked to the wine cabinet and opened the glass door, and said to Menez: "This is not for me to drink." He pulled out a bottle and handed it to Menez.

Menetz then found that each bottle of wine had a ribbon tied to it. He took it under the light and looked carefully. It was in English.

He can't understand.

"It is the best prize on the spot for the FA Cup in England." Chu Zhongtian explained.

Menetz looked at Chu Zhongtian in surprise. Although he didn't know much about English, he still knew what it was about the "FA Cup in England".

“I was famous in that game.”
