heir to the red devil

Chapter 223

Hearing that their father decided to stay in England, Luna and Isla happily ran straight in the living room. Lampard put his arms around his wife and looked at the two beautiful elves with doting eyes.

At this moment, the doorbell of the villa rang.

Luna ran to the door intercom and asked loudly, "Who is it?"

"Is that Luna? I'm your Uncle Paul."

"Oh, it's Uncle Paul," Luna looked back at Lampard, Lampard nodded, Luna pressed a button, and the courtyard door of the villa opened.

Lampard quickly got up and went to the door, opened the door, Scholes had come to the hall.Lampard has a very good relationship with Scholes, and the two have been friends for more than ten years.As soon as he saw his old friend visiting, he stepped forward and hugged Scholes regardless of the slightly dusty snow on Scholes' body.

"Paul, long time no see, I miss you very much."

"Frank, I miss you too."

"Today you won the away game against Arsenal, I haven't had time to congratulate you, congratulations!"

"Thank you."

The two of them walked into the door while talking. At this time, Lampard began to pay attention to the people around Scholes. He saw that this person was tightly wrapped, with a hat on his head and a mask on his face. , showing only two eyes, looking at Scholes and Lampard in front of him.

Lampard asked friendlyly: "Paul, who is this friend?"

Scholes dodged to the side and did not speak, but this man took off his hat and mask, and extended his hand to Lampard friendly: "Frank, hello, let me introduce myself, I am the manager of Manchester United. see you."

"what?"

Lampard was taken aback, and he hastily extended his hand to shake Kim Taeg's hand: "Coach Kim Tage, I didn't expect that you would come to my house as a guest today, it's really unexpected to me."

At this time, the wife Brickley standing behind Lampard, relying on the keen sense of a host, he felt that Kim Taige must have a purpose in this trip, so she smiled and said to the two: "I have prepared refreshments. , sit down and chat."

The three sat on the sofa, Lampard introduced his family to Kintag, and Scholes was already very familiar with it.Jin Taige took out two gift boxes: "Luna, Isla, this is a gift I brought to you, I hope you like it."

The two girls took the gift box and saw that there were two exquisite Barbie dolls. They were very happy: "Thank you, Uncle Tiger."

Seeing the happy looks of the two girls, Jin Taige smiled and said to Lampard: "I also have a 6-year-old daughter, she likes these toys very much, so I also brought a copy for Luna and Isla. Gift."

"I thank you for them," said Lampard very politely.

Jin Taige watched the two girls unpack the gift box and took out the Barbie doll to play happily. He said with emotion: "Not only children, but also adults. When they have new toys, they neglect their old partners. , maybe they have long forgotten that those old buddies have spent many unforgettable times with them..."

Hearing Jin Tag's words, Lampard's heart moved and he remembered many things.He didn't speak, and his heart was stirring.

Scholes put his hat and mask aside, and he smiled and said to Lampard: "When we came, the captain told me that if we visit rashly, if we are seen by reporters, we will probably bring you Trouble, that's why we wrapped it so tightly."

"Oh, it turns out that's the case, you really have a heart," Lampard nodded, and he suddenly remembered something, "Paul, is the captain you're talking about Giggs?"

"No, no, the captain I'm talking about is Tiger. He used to be the captain of our youth team in class 92, and we still call him that." Scholes explained.

The three were chatting on the sofa, and Brickley brought them refreshments, and then returned to the room with her two daughters, leaving ample room for the three to talk.

Scholes and Lampard chatted, both of them a little absent-minded.

Lampard guessed the reason for Jin Taige's visit today, and he was very disturbed: Should he agree smoothly, or should he reconsider?

Because Lampard has been on the bench for the last half of the season, other teams don't know how Lampard's competitive state is, so everyone is hesitant, and the two middle and lower reaches of the Premier League that made offers are probably the same. Coming for Lampard's commercial value.

If he rejects Manchester United...does he have a better choice?
And Scholes is an honest person, he doesn't talk much on weekdays, and he doesn't know how to go around in circles. For example, like today, he and Jin Taige came to lobby Lampard, but they had to be polite for a while. This way of speaking Scholes felt very awkward.

So the two chatted for less than 5 minutes, and Scholes couldn't hold back anymore. He changed the subject and got to the point: "Frank, I saw the news report a while ago, and I didn't know that you and Chelsea had already discussed and decided not to leave." The contract was renewed, which surprised me."

Lampard smiled bitterly: "The reason why I said this is to make my face look better. I said that the two sides discussed the decision, but in fact Chelsea gave up on me."

"What do you think about the next step?"

"I'm going to go abroad to play football."

"Go to West Asia?"

"No, go to America."

Scholes was silent for a moment, then he looked at Lampard: "Frank, I called you a few days ago, and it was arranged by the captain. Seeing that you didn't agree, the captain asked Ferdinand to invite you. Today I will talk to Assen After the game at Nathan, the captain decided to speak to you in person, so we came late at night."

At this time, Jin Taige, who had been silent for a long time, said, "Frank, although it is not the first time we have met, it is the first time that we sit together and chat like this. I am a person who does not like to go around in circles. I am here to visit you today." The purpose is to sign a midfielder for Manchester United."

Lampard looked at Jin Taige and listened carefully to Jin Taige's words.

Kintag also looked at Lampard, his eyes were full of sincerity: "Frank, I once told Paul that I have always believed that the three best central midfielders in England in the past ten years are Paul, Gera De and you. As a midfielder of a generation, I have always dreamed of poaching you to Manchester United. But you are loyal to Chelsea, just like Gerrard is to the Red Army Liverpool, you have become the banner of the Blue Army , you and the Blue Army are basically one and inseparable."

"But when I saw the news in the newspaper that you would not renew your contract with Chelsea, I was very excited. At that moment, I knew that my chance has come, and Manchester United's chance has come!"
