Volume 1: Males Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 74 Dad, Happy Birthday, Live Longer and Stay Younger

Chapter 74 Dad, happy birthday, live longer and stay younger (first update, please vote for me!)

Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera arrived at Shuangliu Airport in Chengdu after 10 p.m. By this time, his parents had been waiting at Shuangliu Airport for more than two hours.

Waiting for Chen Yingxiong with them were many fans who came to see their idol after reading the reports, as well as many media.

Chen Yingxiong just scored five goals in the game against Manchester City, and he was very relaxed. While talking and laughing, the strong crossbow was wiped out, which was really satisfying.

So at this time, his popularity has exploded.

However, Chen Yingxiong did not accept interviews from any media or sign autographs to the fans. He just waved to them as a greeting.

He came back to celebrate his father's birthday this time. It was a very personal matter. He was unwilling to publicize it in the media. He had to use this method to show his filial piety. It was hype and too hypocritical. In fact, Chen Yingxiong has always disliked those who bring their personal affairs to the media and talk about them in front of the public. He always felt that those people were just using the public's curiosity and appreciation for family, love and other private emotions to hype and promote themselves.

Chen Yingxiong would not do this kind of thing. This is why he never mentioned to the media that he was coming back to celebrate his father's birthday. He feels that private matters are private matters. Since he claims that privacy rights should be protected, he should not take the initiative to expose his family affairs in the media all day long. If you rely on exposing your family affairs to promote yourself, then don't complain about the paparazzi digging into your privacy.

If it weren't for Martin O'Neill, I'm afraid many media would never have thought of Chen Yingxiong's return. He flew from England to China just after playing the game and spent a day on the road just to celebrate his father's birthday. .

At the airport, Chen Yingxiong hugged his parents and then introduced Cabrera to his elders.

"My girlfriend, Christine Cabrera. You can kick her, Christine."

"Hello, uncle and aunt." When Chen Yingxiong asked Dracula to find a bodyguard for him, he had a requirement to speak simple Chinese, so it was not surprising that the Chinese sentence came out of Cabrera's mouth.

After saying that, she went up and gave the two men a hug. Fortunately, Chen Yingxiong's parents were not short - otherwise they wouldn't have been able to give birth to a person of Chen Yingxiong's height - so the tall Cabrera did not bend down intentionally when hugging.

Not only did his son fly back from all the way to celebrate his birthday, but he also brought back a tall, pretty, and good-looking girlfriend. The two old men suddenly felt their faces light up and were smiling.

After the four people simply said hello at the airport, they left under the cameras of reporters and amid the cheers of the fans.

Many passengers on the same plane found out that there was such a big star among the passengers flying to Chengdu with them...

Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera rested at home for one night. This was the only night they could stay at home after returning to China.

I didn't get up until after nine o'clock the next day.

In fact, although it is said that Chen Yingxiong is celebrating his father's birthday, it is actually very simple, just book a hotel in advance. The hotel will naturally make arrangements. Chen Yingxiong's father's birthday is no small matter, and the hotel will not neglect it. So Chen Yingxiong doesn't need to worry about many things. It's not like getting married, and there aren't that many red tapes.

Chen Yingxiong didn't intend to be too showy, what kind of team and what kind of performance.

When the time came, the family of four drove to the hotel and greeted the relatives and friends who came to celebrate their birthday at the door. When the time comes, dinner will be served. At most, Chen Yingxiong can go up and say a few words.

Next, everyone should eat, drink, and play. According to the customs of Sichuan people, Chen Yingxiong also specially booked all the private rooms in the hotel. If they were not enough, there was a teahouse next door, and they were also booked. Let the guests play mahjong and have another meal in the evening, and that's it. Compared with those rich officials, Chen Yingxiong celebrated his father's fiftieth birthday. It was really too simple. Any ordinary citizen would This is how you celebrate your birthday. This is not a low-key approach.

Chen Yingxiong couldn't stay until the evening. After lunch, he and Cabrera would leave to catch the plane from Chengdu to Beijing, and then transfer from Beijing back to Liverpool.

Time is so tight, just to come back to celebrate my father's birthday.

Every guest who comes to the birthday party will praise Chen Tao for having a good son who is promising.

Obviously they said this because they thought Chen Yingxiong had become famous and made a lot of money. At most, people with a high level of ideological awareness will only think that Chen Yingxiong has brought glory to the country, so he has a lot of potential.

But Chen Tao didn't care about this at all. His son was promising because he came all the way back from England just to celebrate his birthday.

This is what really makes a difference.

So before lunch started, Chen Yingxiong took the microphone and said in front of his father: "Dad, happy birthday! You must live younger and younger!"

Chen Tao's eyes became moist.

He is not the kind of sentimental person, but his tear ducts have been particularly developed in the past two days because he can feel emotional easily. His once useless son had made him sigh countless times, but now he has finally grown up...

This is more fulfilling than training him to make a lot of money and become famous.

Chen Yingxiong obviously saw the tears in his father's eyes, and he was a little emotional, but this was not the time to hold each other and cry. It was a birthday, so we had to be happy, so why were we crying?

So he quickly changed the subject: "But you are young, so don't forget my mother!"

Everyone in the hall laughed.

The hero's mother scolded from the side: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Chen Tao was also amused by his son's antics. He suddenly stopped feeling emotional and his expression and mentality returned to normal.

This time, the birthday party finally did not let "tears" become the theme.

Cabrera stood on her mother's side, looking at the happy scene of the three people, with a smile on her face, but suddenly thought of her own family in her heart.

Although their family is not living a wealthy life, and although her younger brothers and sisters always have many things that worry her, the whole family is still together. Isn't that happiness?

The hero is so filial to his parents and a kind-hearted person, so he should be able to accept his family, right?

Cabrera has always been reluctant to talk about her family affairs in front of Chen Yingxiong because she was worried that Chen Yingxiong might not be able to accept her large family. Because from previous observations of her and Chen Yingxiong getting along day and night, Chen Yingxiong was not a particularly patient and loving guy.

So she never mentioned it, and she even thought about breaking up with Chen Yingxiong if she really couldn't accept it. After all, family is more important to her than love.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong seemed to have changed. He began to become more mature and caring.

This reassured Cabrera a lot. At least for now, she didn't have to worry about losing this relationship.

After celebrating his father's birthday and having lunch, Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera said goodbye to everyone, and then took a taxi to Shuangliu Airport.

In the car, Cabrera had the opportunity to talk about his thoughts on this short trip to China.

"Chinese people celebrate birthdays very lively...there are so many people here!"

This time Chen Yingxiong's father invited forty tables, and the people who came included Chen Tao's classmates, relatives, business friends and partners, and some customers. Because Chen Tao is a native of Chengdu, his network of contacts is quite extensive. There are also some people who come for Chen Yingxiong, so there are naturally more people.

Chen Yingxiong smiled.

"We Chinese like liveliness, so you will always feel a buzzing in your ears in a restaurant." Many people are proud of Westerners chatting in low voices in restaurants, but liveliness is the nature of Chinese people, and the dining table is Chinese It is an important occasion for people to socialize, so it is difficult to ask everyone to keep quiet or lower their volume while eating. Different countries and different ethnic groups have different cultures. There is no need to belittle one and elevate the other. The key is that you have to do as the Romans do. When you go abroad, respect other people's etiquette. In China, follow the Chinese rules.

Cabrera nodded: "But I think it feels good. My home... has always been so noisy since I can remember. There are many people, the house is small, and everyone gathers together. It is especially lively when eating. …”

Chen Yingxiong listened silently, because in his mind, this seemed to be the first time Cabrera took the initiative to tell him about her family affairs.

Unfortunately, Cabrera didn't say much.

She turned to look at Chen Yingxiong: "Today reminds me of my home. It's very kind. I like it."

Chen Yingxiong saw her rare tenderness and put his arms around her, letting her nestle in his arms.

"If you like it, I will bring you here more often in the future. This summer, when my season is over, we will go back to China to have some fun. I guarantee you will fall in love with this country!"

When Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera flew from Chengdu to Beijing, it went smoothly. They were only half an hour late. When Chen Yingxiong originally booked the tickets, he fully considered the privacy of the delay, so there was a lot of time left in between. It’s plenty, so you don’t have to worry about being late here or missing the plane at the next stop.

When they got on the plane from Beijing to Liverpool, it was only 7:30 in the evening on January 1, Beijing time. The plane would take off half an hour later. The plane was currently taxiing, and the fuselage was trembling slightly.

In more than eleven hours, they will arrive in Liverpool. It landed at 10:30 pm on January 1st, UK local time.

The game is only three days old, so Chen Yingxiong can still make it to the pre-match training on January 2. It will not delay the home game against Newcastle.

Strictly speaking, Chen Yingxiong did take two days off and did not add any extra time. From the evening of December 30th to the evening of January 1st, there were two full days.

Before coming here, he scored five goals in a game against Manchester City and successfully returned to China. After returning to China, he celebrated his 50th birthday for his father. In addition, he seemed to have invisibly brought himself and Cabrera closer to each other. distance. Now there will be no delay in the game against Newcastle.

Chen Yingxiong felt that his plan was so perfect!
