Chapter 998 Threat
Liverpool's 32nd round was a Merseyside derby with Everton.
>Chen Yu came back one day later than the scheduled time. Liverpool coach Benitez and CEO Rick Barry were nervous for a day. They were afraid that Chen Yu would be hurt in the national team game. Australia is notorious and has close ties with the UK. Rick Barry and Benitez have also heard of it.
Benitez and Rick Barry called Chen Yu, and Chen Yu turned off the phone. They knew that Chen Yu had a private phone number, but only Zhang Shubin and other few people knew about it. The two called Zhang Shubin again. Zhang Shubin told them that Chen Yu was not injured and had some private matters to do, so they came back after the completion. However, Benitez and Rick Barry were still worried. Chen Yu's position in Liverpool is too important. If he had any accidents, Liverpool's championship career would be dangerous. Later, they called Zhang Shubin several times. Until Chen Yu came back safely to report, the two of them were relieved. However, Benitez still made suggestions to CEO Rick Barry that when Chen Yu returned to China to participate in the national team competition, he would send a team doctor to follow him to prevent Chen Yu from being injured in the national team training and competition.
Chen Yu returned to Liverpool and called Benitez, saying that he was back, and told Zhang Shubin not to disturb him, and then he buried his head in bed.
In the past few days of returning to China, it was less than a week. However, Chen Yu flew tens of thousands of kilometers, fought a fierce battle, and had two crazy "battles" with Lin Xiaolin. He was still half confused after flying on the plane for more than ten hours and had no rest. Chen Yu urgently needed to sleep now.
Chen Yu slept until eight o'clock the next day. At this time, he had already arrived at the Melwood training base.
When Chen Yu got up, he saw Zhao Muyu sitting in the living room chatting with Zhang Shubin, but he didn't go to the store, and said, "Mu Yu, shouldn't you go to the store?"
"Lisa is here in the store, so it's nothing if I go early and late." Zhao Muyu glanced at Chen Yu deeply and said lightly.
Zhao Muyu looked at Chen Yu with a strange look. Chen Yu and Lin Xiaolin did something that could not be told to others yesterday. Zhao Muyu felt guilty when he saw it and forced himself to say, "Why do you think of me like this? It's like an interrogation of a prisoner."
A faint sadness flashed in Zhao Muyu's eyes and said, "You are guilty."
Chen Yu pretended to be calm and rubbed Zhao Muyu's hair, and said, "I'm a thief? Haha, who should I steal? What's worth stealing?"
Zhao Muyu was unwilling to talk about this topic again and said, "Goddad's soy milk may be cooked. Brother Xiaoyu, go and wash it, I'll take breakfast."
Chen Yu shook his head, feeling that Zhao Muyu's expression was a little wrong. Considering that his friends Gao Fei, Sun Hai, Zheng Hua, Jia Ya and Zhao Muyu are all close, the matter of his and Lin Xiaolin's outing may have reached Zhao Muyu's ears. Chen Yu was not afraid that Zhao Muyu would know, and Zhao Muyu would not tell Knightley even if he knew, because he was afraid that Zhao Muyu would be sad.
To be fair, Zhao Muyu is actually an excellent candidate for being a wife. She is beautiful, gentle, smart, pure, and she is devoted to Chen Yu. However, Zhao Muyu has been with Chen Yu since she was fourteen or five years old. The two are sympathetic to brothers and sisters. In the words of the Internet, they are too familiar with each other and are difficult to deal with.
Thinking of this, Chen Yu wondered whether he was so moved by Lin Xiaolin now. Is it because the two had too little contact with each other and was fresh and exciting? If he and Lin Xiaolin were familiar with each other to a certain extent, would he have no feelings as much as he was with Knightley, Lin Hong, and Zhao Muyu?
Chen Yu felt that he could not think about it anymore. The more he thought about it, the more he became, the more confused he became. What he needed now was not a lover, but a wife, and a child. This was what his grandparents and grandparents wanted to see the most. He could not care about the whole world, including his parents, but he could not make his grandparents sad. They had given so much for him and did not ask for anything in return. They simply hoped that he would get married and have children. He had to satisfy his grandparents' wish.
"Xiao Yu, why are you standing there? You've had a meal."
Zhang Shubin walked out of the kitchen with his soy milk boiled. Seeing Chen Yu in a daze, he quickly asked him to come over and have breakfast.
"Oh well."
Chen Yu responded and sat down at the dining table with great thoughts.
Zhang Shubin knew about Chen Yu’s affairs in China. On public and Chen Yu were his biggest client. On private matters, he treated Chen Yu like his nephew. It was impossible for him not to pay attention to Chen Yu, but he didn’t say much about Chen Yu’s private affairs.
As the most successful player in the history of Chinese football, as a new football player, Chen Yu's private life is already very good compared to others. However, Zhang Shubin thinks that Chen Yu is just going to provoke others, and the worst case can be settled with money. However, provoking the descendants of the red family is too troublesome to him. Zhang Shubin feels that things are a little out of control, and he needs to find time and opportunity to talk to Chen Yu.
But now it is the eve of the derby, and everything is focused on the game. Zhang Shubin must not want to ruin Chen Yu's mood now, so he forced a smile and said, "Xiao Yu, the league has reached a critical period, and the game is the priority. Don't worry too much about other things and leave them to me to handle."
"Well, I understand what is the most important thing." Chen Yu didn't want to say much, sat down and ate, shifting all his worries to his appetite.
After having breakfast, Chen Yu said goodbye to Zhang Shubin and Zhao Muyu to Melwood. Zhang Shubin didn't say anything, but just waved his hand to let him go. Zhao Muyu smiled and said, "Brother Xiaoyu came back early after training, don't run around, I'll make some delicious food for you tonight."
Chen Yu thought this sentence was also strange. Zhao Muyu often made delicious food and waited for Chen Yu, but he rarely told Chen Yu that he didn't know what medicine he took this time, but it was strange since he woke up in the morning. Chen Yu felt that he needed to take time to talk to Zhao Muyu. No matter what the situation happened, he had to communicate with Zhao Muyu, otherwise if this continued, there would be problems sooner or later.
When Chen Yu arrived at Melwood to train, his teammates were coming one after another. They all came to say hello to Chen Yu. When they had a good relationship, they pulled Chen Yu to ask a few questions. Chen Yu answered one by one, and then returned to the court to continue training alone.
Not long after, around nine o'clock, head coach Benitez and assistant coach arrived.
"I'm sorry, coach, I'm going back one day late, I've been delayed." Chen Yu apologized first when he came up. He still had to give Benitez this little face.
Benitez was very happy to see Chen Yu. Chen Yu came back and was not injured. It was enough for Benitez. He had never thought of accuse Chen Yu and said: "It's nothing, it's good to come back. It's a pity that he didn't play well in the World Cup qualifiers. It's a pity that we didn't go to cheer for you in person. This time we are going to play the Merseyside derby. You have to work harder. This is not only related to the championship competition, but also to the feelings of Liverpool fans. If we can't play this game well, even if we win the championship, the fans will feel confused."
Chen Yu smiled and said, "Coach, Everton sees that we may win the championship, and he is planning to make things difficult for us. I will do my best and will never let them succeed."
"Seeing that you are in good spirits, I'll feel relieved. OK, prepare for training."
Benitez patted Chen Yu on the shoulder and went to get equipment, balls and other training supplies with the assistant coach and the team members. Chen Yu changed into sneakers, brought protective gear, jogged on the sidelines, and did preparations.
Today's training is open to the public. At this moment, many fans have come to watch outside the barbed wire in the training ground. When Chen Yu ran over, someone cheered, and someone shouted Chen Yu's name. Chen Yu didn't come for a day, and the media rumored that Chen Yu was injured. The fans were uneasy. Seeing Chen Yu appearing in health, Liverpool fans were completely relieved and were full of confidence in tomorrow's game.
Today, Chen Yu is undoubtedly the protagonist. There are many related reporters coming into the training ground. Their cameras are almost always facing Chen Yu, and occasionally turning to other players.
Liverpool and Everton are derby opponents. They play at least two games a year and live in the same city. There is no secret between each other and the training is step by step, without much innovation. However, Chen Yu's appearance today is new. The reporters and fans are interested in watching it, not boring at all. Even Chen Yu and his teammates play monkey walkers together, and fans cheered. The Liverpool players are envious and jealous. They are holding on to tease Chen Yu while playing games. Although Chen Yu is both skilled and fast, he can't stop his teammates from cheating. Most of the people who are caught playing games in one day are him.
After the training, Chen Yu took a shower and prepared to pick up the car and go home. At this time, Benitez came over and walked side by side with Chen Yu.
"Chen Yu, you have been playing games in Asia these days. Maybe you don't know that Everton players say they want to tackle your legs. I hope you don't be intimidated by these threats and play boldly. In Anfield, there are 45,000 Red Army fans as their backing. They dare not go too far."
Benitez's cautious words, he heard the news in the past two days. These news came from the Internet and may not be reliable, but groundlessness may not be without cause. As the head coach, he must think of the worst outcome and make prevention.
With this news again, Chen Yu said contemptuously: "Every time the game, someone says he wants to tackle my legs, and now my legs are still fine."
Benitez said: "In terms of strength, it's not a big problem for us to beat them at home. You have to play more alertly and don't insult them. After seizing the victory, you can relax and I may replace you."
Chen Yu was about to be thirty years old, so naturally he was not as brave as a young man in his twenties. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, coach, I won't fight with them, as long as the team wins."
Benitez was very happy and patted Chen Yu on the back and said, "I am very happy that you can think of this. For the opponent's provocation, you have to answer with goals and victory. Go back and have a good rest. There will be a game tomorrow."
Chen Yu walked to his, Bentley, waved to Benitez, and said, "Coach, I will have a good rest, goodbye."
