George Li walked out of the house and started walking towards the home called Charlotte based on what Olson said.
His house is located on Park Avenue, next to a large lawn and a golf course. He originally bought it because of the environment here.
He didn't walk long before he came to the house with cardboard boxes at the door. He looked at the boxes and found that, as Olson said, they had just moved here.
"Dong dong dong" Although the door was not closed, he still knocked a few times out of courtesy.
"Come in, are you back so soon?" A man's voice came from inside.
George Li did not go in, but continued to stand at the door and spoke inside.
"Hello, I'm here to pick up my son. I heard that he is playing at your house."
"Oh, here it comes."
The man who just spoke came out. George Li looked at the man and guessed that he should be Charlotte's father. The man is not very tall, but has a big belly. He is wearing a plaid shirt and holding a hammer in his hand.
"Hello, George Li." George Li introduced himself and extended his hand.
The man quickly put the hammer aside, wiped it on his shirt, and stretched out his hand to hold it.
"Hello, my name is William Blake, just call me William."
"Mr. Black, why didn't you see Sean?" Although George Li wanted to get to know Charlotte Black, but since he didn't see his son, he should look for him first.
"They went to my store to play, as you saw. We just moved here and the house was very messy, so I asked my wife to take their children to my store to eat. They will come back after a while. "
"William, what store do you open?" After figuring out his son's whereabouts, George Li also changed his name for Mr. Black.
"Fish and chips. My fried fish is very famous in Wales."
"Oh, really? I must try it next time I have the chance." Although George Li didn't like fried fish, he still said it out of politeness.
When he heard that George Lee was interested in his fried fish, Mr. Black got excited and began to promote his store non-stop.
"You know, my previous fried fish shop tasted good, but the business was never very good."
"why?"
"Maybe the name is not loud enough. Our store used to be called Fisher's Fish and Chips, until I changed it to a more loud name. George, take a guess."
"How could I know?" Li found that Mr. Black talked too much.
"Charles, I later renamed it 'Charles' Fish and Chips' and business got better."
"That's great." Li George just wanted to end this topic as soon as possible, and then go ask about Charlotte Black, whom he cared about.
"You know why, because the Prince of Wales is Charles."
"Uh, okay."
"Don't you think it's amazing?"
"William, I heard that your son has just joined the youth team of Leeds United, and I happen to be..."
Before George Li could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
"I know you are the head coach of Leeds United. Your son Sean told us about it when he came here." Mr. Black put down the hammer in his hand.
"Really? What else did he say? He is usually a very boring person and doesn't have many friends. It's really a good thing to be a good friend with your son."
"Actually, I recognized you when I saw you just now, but I didn't expect you to be our neighbor."
"Yeah."
"It's just that I didn't know that Sean was actually your son, because you see, your last name..."
"Adopted son." George Li told the other party directly.
"All right."
"William, how did you recognize me?"
"Of course, because of Charlotte, I usually pay more attention to football. Also, because we often show some football broadcasts and other football-related programs in the store, so as the head coach of Leeds United, I We still know each other.”
"Okay, can you tell me about Charlotte? I heard that he was a well-known star player in Cardiff before." In front of his father, George Li could only speak nicely.
"Yes, the Cardiff coach must have been crying before. Let me tell you, you have found a treasure..." Mr. Black praised his son as if he was praising his fried fish.
"What position does he play?" George Li didn't want to listen to those useless compliments because he couldn't get any useful information from them.
"He played as a right midfielder in Cardiff. He is very fast. It can be said that he is the fastest football player of his age in Wales. Previously, a track and field coach invited him to practice sprinting, but I refused. Already..."
From his words, George Li could only tell that Charlotte ran very fast, and the other words were all centered around this, but he was really embarrassed to interrupt a father's praise of him.
It seems that we can only wait until that boy Wallace comes back and ask him about it.
Sean Wallace's temperament is relatively introverted, and he will definitely not say such a long speech. Great is great, and excellent is excellent.
"Charlotte's right foot is very good, I think it's comparable to David Beckham... He also has a good left foot because for a while his coach didn't allow him to play with his right foot... .... There seems to be a kid there because his left foot is too strong, and the coach won't let him use it... What kind of strange training method is this? Do you also use it at Leeds United?"
"No, we don't have to." George Li was a little perfunctory because he didn't hear Charlotte's technical characteristics from what he just said. If his right foot is really the same as Beckham's, Cardiff will not let Xia go. Lot's.
"Dong dong dong." Someone knocked on the door.
George Li quickly turned around to see if Mrs. Black had returned with the two children, Wallace and Charlotte.
But no, she is a girl around 20 years old.
The girl had a ponytail, was wearing simple white short-sleeves and jeans, was carrying a shoulder bag, and was holding two books in her hands.
"Dad, I'm back."
"Helen, you're back." Mr. Black saw his daughter coming back and said hello.
"Where are mom and the others?"
"She took Charlotte and the others to the store to play."
"This is..." The girl was very curious when she saw the strange man appearing at home.
"He is our new neighbor, Mr. Li." After William Blake introduced George Li, he began to introduce his daughter, "George, this is my eldest daughter, Helen."
"Hello." "Hello." The two nodded.
"Helen is a medical student at the University of Leeds. She will graduate next year. She has been living on campus before. This year we are planning to open the store in Leeds, so she is now a day student..."
"Dad, you guys talk, I'll go up first." Helen obviously knew her father, and she would talk non-stop as soon as she opened her mouth. So I chose to flee the scene.
"It seems that your daughter and son are both excellent, William."
"Yes, my wife and I have three excellent children. Helen's academic performance has always been excellent. Charlotte has shown great football talent since she was a child. As for Anne, my wife has always wanted her to learn singing. But I don’t think so, you know the entertainment industry..."
From his words, George Li could tell again that he had three children, two daughters and one son, all of whom were very good.
Of course, the last sentence needs to be verified, so he really wants to see Charlotte now. He really wants to call John Sheridan when he gets home. Of course, he has not forgotten that he is here to pick up the boy Wallace.
"We're back." At this time, a little girl jumped in first.
Followed by a boy of fifteen or sixteen and a woman of about forty years old.
The boy looks young, but he is already about 1.8 meters tall, and his body looks quite strong.
This should be William Blake's wife, daughter, and Charlotte Blake, whom Li George has been looking forward to for a long time.
But George Lee discovered something, Wallace did not show up.
"Where's Sean?" Mr. Black asked on behalf of George Li.
"After I came out of the store, I took him home first on the way back," Mrs. Black said.
"Oh, it seems that your trip was in vain, George."
"It's okay." George Li felt relieved when he learned that his son had arrived home.
"Dear, this is Mr. Li, our neighbor. He is the head coach of Leeds United." Mr. Black introduced Li to his wife, and then called his son over.
"Charlotte, come meet your coach and perform well under him from now on."
"Hello, Mrs. Black."
"Hello, Mr. Li, Charlotte will trouble you from now on."
"It's not troublesome. In fact, I am generally responsible for the affairs of the first team. The other two coaches are responsible for Charlotte's training. Of course, from your husband, I learned that your son is a very good player. I think he I will report to my first team soon." Out of politeness, George Li could only say this first.
"That's great."
"It's getting late, so I went back. My child is still waiting for me at home."
"OK."
George Lee bid farewell to the Black family.
"Come to my shop for fried fish when you have time. I'll treat you. It's right next to Canal Park, just across Prince Street."
George Li left their house, and Mr. Black was still shouting at him from inside.
^^^
George Li returned home again.
When I entered the door, I saw that Wallace had indeed returned home and was exercising in his room downstairs. From the open door of the room, he could be seen constantly lifting dumbbells.
But Olson was still lying on the sofa eating.
George Li walked through the living room and walked straight to the door of Wallace's room.
"Did you meet new friends today?"
Wallace stopped what he was doing and looked up at him.
"You mean Charlotte?"
"Yes, can you tell me about him?"
"You have heard that he has joined our youth team." Wallace guessed his father's intention.
"Yeah, I heard he's the fastest player in the Welsh youth team."
"No, it's not."
Sure enough, George Li felt that such a good thing would not happen to him and Leeds United, and he was happy in vain.
At this time, I heard Wallace continue.
"He told me that he could only finish second in Wales, and there was someone who was faster than him. They were teammates and good friends before, but then his teammate went to Southampton."
Sounds good too.
"Did you play with him today? How is his technique?" George Lee asked Wallace again.
"Charlotte is very fast and physically strong. His right foot is very powerful and he can often pass some good balls. His left foot is also good. I am very curious about how he trains."
George Li was thinking that although Mr. Black's words were long-winded, they were all credible because the boy Wallace never lied.
It seems that their fish and chips should taste good, but he doesn't like fried fish.
"It's good. I hope I can see you in the first team soon. You can continue to practice."
After speaking, George Li turned around and was about to leave, but he came back to ask Wallace again.
"I'm curious, what is the name of the young man who is faster than Charlotte? Did Charlotte tell you?"
Li had already thought about it, found out the name, and asked Sheridan to go poach.
"It seems his name is Bale, Gareth Bale."
"Oh~" George Li got the answer he wanted.
At this time, Olson also walked to the door of Wallace's room with a cardboard box, chewing something and talking at the same time.
"Hey, Sean, Charlotte's fried fish tastes really good. Can you take me with you next time you go to their house? I think the French fries have to be freshly fried to be delicious."
George Lee glanced at the paper box in Olson's hand, and sure enough it said "Charles' Fish and Chips" on it.
"Why don't you eat something?" Lee asked Wallace.
Wallace answered as he lifted the dumbbells.
"I was recently asking coach Colin about fitness, and he said that people who exercise can eat such high-calorie fried foods."
After listening to what Wallace said, George Li picked up a piece of fried fish from Olson's box and ate it.
It tastes really good.
