Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Lisbon, a slum neighborhood.

boom!

boom!

boom!

Hugo was tied to a stool, and his "good friends" were beating him.

"You son of a bitch! You made me lose 30,000 yuan!"

"Damn it! You have to pay me back this money, or I'll kill you!"

"I also lost 13,000! Holy crap!"

"Did you secretly place other bets? So you deliberately let your brother score so many goals?"

"That's for sure! That bastard, I'll have someone break his legs tomorrow! I'll make him kick that damn soccer ball!"

Hugo's face was covered in blood; he no longer had the strength to argue with these people.

Didn't he lose money?

He lost too!

More than 20,000!

How can he afford to pay for it?

How can my mother afford to pay for it with her monthly salary of just over 500 yuan?

He now really feels like he'd rather be dead.

However, when he heard those people say they wanted to break Ronaldo's leg, he used his last bit of strength to spit in their face.

"Come at me if you have a problem, don't mess with my family!" Hugo was on the verge of fainting.

Beep~woo~beep~woo~beep~woo~

Suddenly, police sirens blared outside.

One of the men went outside to check, and then said in a panic:

"The police are here!"

"Run! There are so many police officers!"

"Police! Damn it, who called the police?!"

"Let's go, let's go, hurry up and go!"

"If we get caught, we're finished!"

The group of thugs quickly dispersed.

The sirens outside continued to blare.

As soon as these people left, Hugo heard footsteps behind him.

The other person came and untied the ropes binding Hugo. He turned around and saw that it was Cristiano Ronaldo and Deng Kai.

"Chris, what are you doing here..." Hugo said weakly.

"Let's go first, we'll talk about it later, in case they come back!" Deng Kai gestured for everyone to leave first, not to reminisce about the past, and not to follow the melodramatic plots of domestic dramas.

Deng Kai only relaxed after entering the Chinese community.

We're safe here.

Cristiano Ronaldo knew where Hugo was staying in Lisbon.

When the two arrived, Hugo had already been subdued by his companions.

The police were called by Deng Kai and Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, Deng Kai did not mention Hugo's address, but rather the building next door.

If they are arrested by the police, Hugo and his friends' illegal betting or even involvement in football betting could be exposed, which would leave Hugo with a criminal record and could also affect Ronaldo.

The best outcome is to scare the other party away.

Of course, if they can't scare them away, Deng Kai will step in and lure the police over to save the person first, but then there will be a lot of trouble later.

Cristiano Ronaldo was initially quite worried about Hugo.

But Deng Kai was confident about it.

These people are after money.

With Hugo dead, they truly had nothing left.

Therefore, Hugo will not be in trouble in the short term.

Moreover, Hugo wasn't entirely helpless in Madeira; once he returned to Madeira, these troubles were basically over.

Hugo just had to pay back the 20,000 yuan he owed, because that part was borrowed from the bank.

Official funds are the hardest to renege on.

……

"Why are you playing like this? You're doing it on purpose, aren't you?" Hugo had already realized what was going on when they were at the Alvalade Stadium, and he glared fiercely at Deng Kai.

"Before I answer your question, please answer mine first. Do you still consider those people your friends? Do you still think they won't hurt you and Ronaldo?" Deng Kai looked at Hugo without the slightest bit of remorse.

Some people just won't get away with being disciplined. They lack intelligence and emotional intelligence, and only after being severely beaten will they understand some obvious truths.

"Do you know how much debt this will saddle our family with?" Hugo knew Deng Kai was right, but he couldn't accept Deng Kai's methods. "You don't deserve to call yourself Chris's best friend at all."

"You've saddled his family with enormous debt, and we'll be impoverished for the rest of our lives because of it!"

"You bad person! You're up to no good!"

"Brother! That's enough!" Cristiano Ronaldo stepped forward this time. "Deng Kai is my friend. He's been so concerned about me, he even saved you, and yet you talk about him like that. Apologize to him!"

Hugo was a little confused. As the eldest brother, he was like a father to his beloved younger brother, who had never lost his temper with him.

But this time.

"Chris, you..."

"Apologize!" Cristiano Ronaldo roared, furious. "If you don't apologize to Deng Kai, I won't acknowledge you as my brother! Apologize!"

"I've had enough of you!" Hugo finally snapped. "What are you doing, acting so arrogantly? Why do you always boss everyone in the house around like that?"

"Do I owe you anything?"

"I entered the workforce early to help support the family, but what about you? Your expenses alone exceed the combined expenses of everyone else in the family!"

"Both Dad and Mom love you the most, and I'm their son too. Have they ever shown me any care or concern?"

"Do I want to lose money? Do I want to be in debt? Did I use this money to enjoy myself?"

"I'm doing this for this family too!"

"You're so selfish!"

Hugo slammed the door and left once again.

This time, he really left.

Cristiano Ronaldo stood there, stunned, unable to refute.

Because what Hugo said wasn't wrong either.

Deng Kai patted Ronaldo on the shoulder, meaning "You did nothing wrong," and then chased after him.

Deng Kai rushed up behind Hugo and threw something at him.

Hugo turned around to hit Deng Kai, but then realized that what had just hit him seemed to be... money?

Bang bang bang!

Deng Kai threw several lumps at it.

"This is money Cristiano Ronaldo borrowed from me; it's all the scholarship money I advanced from the school!" Deng Kai said. "Take this money and pay off all those bad debts you owe."

"If there's any left, tell the aunt that it's what you earned this time, and then set up a stall and do some small business."

"Never, ever gamble again."

"And don't get involved in things you can't quit, you'll ruin your whole family!"

Deng Kai had also realized that in Hugo's heart, family, especially Cristiano Ronaldo, held great importance.

Hugo would be more concerned if the money was borrowed by Ronaldo.

At least I won't squander this money again.

If he really squanders it, then he will lose his brother forever, which wouldn't be a bad thing for Ronaldo.

Sure enough, Hugo's hands were trembling.

As he bent down to pick up the money, he asked, "How can Chris afford to pay all this back?"

Deng Kai said, "He will become a star player, and then your whole family won't have to worry about money. But no matter how great a star player is, if his family is not harmonious and doesn't abide by the law, he will only become a laughing stock in the end."

"From now on, you don't need to resort to any crooked methods for money. Take care of yourself, your aunt and uncle, and your two sisters. That's the biggest support you can give Ronaldo!"

"He gave you a book last time, you didn't read it, did you?"

Hugo shook his head; he didn't even know the name of the book.

"Wait here, I have another copy at home, I'll go get it for you." Deng Kai turned around, "After you get it, hurry back to Madeira Island, your friends probably haven't realized what's going on yet."

"But if we don't leave tonight, it might be more difficult to leave later."

Two minutes later, Deng Kai ran over and handed the book to Hugo.

Hugo took the book, the cover of which read "Complete Study Materials for the Football Agent Professional Qualification Examination".

Hugo looked up at the dark figure on the balcony not far away, and tears instantly streamed down his face.

"Thank you, Kay! Meeting you is our good fortune! Thank you!" Hugo disappeared into the vast darkness.
