After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!

Gossip is human nature.

”Ahem, maybe, but I don’t think that’s how it is. I just want to find out what he’s up to.”

Huang Kaiwen said.

”Alright, sounds boring.”

Joe Cole said with a pout.

He had a fight with his girlfriend two days ago, and took the opportunity to leave home.

Going out with Huang Kaiwen, no one would say anything.

Huang Kaiwen gave directions, and they drove all the way to Waltham Forest District in North London.

After getting out of the car, Huang Kaiwen walked towards a bench by the street.

A fat man sitting on the bench eating a hot dog had a camera hanging around his neck.

He was the private detective hired by Huang Kaiwen.

”They went in but haven’t come out.”

The fat man said, ”I tipped the waiter to help me install some equipment. I’m sure those people are scammers.”

”What’s going on?”

Huang Kaiwen asked.

”They kept talking about some investment project in India with more than 300% profit. Such high-return investment projects are all fake, so I decided to install a bug.”

The fat man said.

”Alright, you’ve done well.”

Huang Kaiwen said, ”Hand over the recording to me, and don’t keep any copies, understand?”

”I know the rules!”

The fat man wiped the ketchup on his hand with his shirt and made a money-counting gesture towards Huang Kaiwen with his right hand.

”My butler will pay you.”

Huang Kaiwen said, ”There’s nothing more for you to do. You can leave.”

After glancing at the three people in the car, Huang Kaiwen chose to listen to the recording alone by the street.

”...This project is very popular, and quite a few British people are investing. If you hadn’t happened to hear about it, we wouldn’t have asked you to join. But even if you invest, there’s only a 2 million share for you. If you want to invest too much, I can’t convince others...”

Huang Kaiwen took a sharp breath.

British people going to India to invest, thinking they can just break even?

Too naive.

Sounds so convincing.

They even restrict Ramos from unlimited investment, creating a sense of urgency that the project is in high demand. This rough deception tactic is common worldwide.

After getting a general idea, Huang Kaiwen called the police directly.

Back in the car, Lily asked, ”What’s going on, is Sergio involved in arms trading?”

Huang Kaiwen:...

Has Lily been watching too many Hollywood movies?

”It’s okay, it will be resolved in a while.”

Huang Kaiwen said.

After about an hour.

The London police finally arrived leisurely, but fortunately, the ”get-rich-quick gathering” inside hadn’t ended yet.

When Ramos came out, he looked a bit unnatural seeing Huang Kaiwen.

”Kevin...”

”It’s alright, go give your statement.”

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

He pretty much understood now.

Recently, because of buying a house in London, Ramos was under a lot of pressure.

So he wanted to earn more money.

As for why Ramos was targeted.

He got so many red cards, making people think he’s simple-minded.

One of the easier football players to deceive.

Just not sure how much Ramos was scammed.

Around 2 in the afternoon, Ramos finally walked out of the police station.

Huang Kaiwen went up to hug Ramos and said, ”It’s over now.”

”Kevin...”

Ramos said hesitantly.

Huang Kaiwen put his arm around his shoulder and said, ”It’s nothing serious. Did you give them money?”

”Only 200,000. I don’t have much on hand right now, still waiting for the new sponsor’s payment.”

Ramos said embarrassedly.

He actually had a feeling that such high-return projects were unreliable.

But now, he was financially tight and still held onto a glimmer of hope.

Today, the lie was exposed by Huang Kaiwen. Those nobles he saw who invested were actually actors from the scam group.

Being scammed of only 200,000 pounds was already a blessing in disguise.

”Their relationship seems unusual.”

Joe Cole, sitting in the driver’s seat, said.

Lily pouted in the back seat.

She was already used to such things.

Just like Barbara always said, she never worried about the women around Huang Kaiwen, only worried about the men around him.

Ramos sat in the back seat with them.

Huang Kaiwen sat in the middle, Lily on the left, and Ramos on the right.

Mata quietly stayed in the front passenger seat.

Although today’s activities weren’t thrilling, spending the vacation with the big shots of the team was a good start.

Later, after dinner at Kevin’s house, Joe Cole and Mata finally left.

Ramos, who had just been scammed, was forcibly made to spend the night by Huang Kaiwen.

With so many rooms at home, leaving them empty would be a waste.

A little past 9, a tailor came to help Huang Kaiwen try on clothes.

The next morning, Lily, Ramos, and Huang Kaiwen headed for the airport together.

They met Mourinho at the airport, who had already ditched his crutches and seemed to be recovering well.

Compared to a single men’s award after the Ballon d’Or in Europe, the FIFA awards ceremony has more comprehensive awards.

It’s said this year there is also a Best Goal Award—Kevin Award.

Leaving Ramos full of anticipation.

...

Early morning at home.

Duan Xuan, who often got bumped off shows due to various projects, appeared in the studio, with Xu Yang sitting beside him.

Today Channel 5 will broadcast the awards ceremony live throughout.

The live broadcast showed Brazilian female footballer Marta, and after Huang Kaiwen got off the car, he greeted her and directly walked into the venue.

This time FIFA’s schedule was quite tight.

Without time to chat with other players, Huang Kaiwen sat in his seat.

The two hosts were American presenter Pedro Pinto and Sky TV’s Charlotte Jackson.
