Chapter 622 Volume 5 Red Kiss
After finishing the breakfast made by Shania, Tony Twain sat on the sofa and read the major newspapers that were just published and put on sale today. Apart from caring about what bad things his dear news media friends said about him, he also wanted to See if there are any interesting gossip and anecdotes, and learn about all aspects of this society by the way. After all, I was a Chinese through and through in my previous life, and I am quite unfamiliar with the capitalist society.
In addition, deep down in his heart, he wanted to see if there was any news about that man. He skimmed the social page and turned to the sports page.
A draw with Chelsea at home did not allow the Forest team to widen the gap with the top two. This may be one of the reasons why Twain could still laugh after the game. Since Manchester United and Arsenal drew 2:2, the point difference between Twain and the two teams is still one point - Arsenal and Manchester United have the same score of 30 points, the ranking is temporarily determined by goal difference, Arsenal First, Manchester United second. Nottingham Forest temporarily ranked third with 29 points. Manchester City and Liverpool rank fourth and fifth with 26 points, Mourinho's Chelsea... Poor Chelsea, because they were tied by Forest in the next moment, are currently ranked sixth with 25 points.
Seeing the freshly released league table in the newspaper, Tang En knew that Mourinho's life would be even more difficult... But maybe, Mourinho still has time to adjust and save his coaching career at Chelsea. Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to save Tang En.
This is the first day after the game, the team has a holiday without any training. Players and coaches have a full day to rest. After that, the players who have the task of the national team will fly to the location of their national team to meet with the national team teammates. Those who do not have the task of the national team will return to the Wilford training base for daily training. Since the Forest team will miss a large number of main players at that time, the team will not conduct any tactical joint training, mainly some physical recovery training.
By then, Twain's job would have been very simple, and most of the things would be handled by the assistant coach. But Tang En will appear busier than before. Because Tang is going back to China for two days.
Nottingham Forest and China's Hunan TV station, as well as a number of media and sports economy companies, have entered the final training stage of the football youth talent show. According to the cooperation agreement signed by the two parties, Nottingham Forest needs to send a coach to China for a short inspection and guidance. The time is not long, only four days. But if Tang En didn't mention this matter, Tang En probably wouldn't even remember it.
As for the cooperation or something, after signing the agreement, he threw it to the country of Java. I don't even remember that there is such a line in the middle. So when Tang En heard Tang say that he was going back to China, Tang En's eyes widened as if Tang was joking with him.
It took Tang a long time to let Tang En understand that he was not joking, but that he really wanted to return to China to perform the contract according to the requirements of the contract. Tang En muttered again why it was him, not any other coach. Tang En was speechless when he said "Because I am Chinese, the event is held in China".
It is true that no one can be found more suitable than Tang. Evan and Allen hoped to fully demonstrate Nottingham Forest's sincerity in participating in this cooperation activity, so the club's senior management requested that the level and qualifications of the coaches sent to China be sufficient. As a Chinese, Tang was naturally the best candidate. There is no one who understands the current situation of Chinese football and Chinese football teenagers better than him-for outsiders, this is the case.
Tang En was reading a newspaper when the doorbell rang. He was about to get up to open the door when he heard hurried footsteps. Shania quickly ran out from the kitchen, wearing an apron, her wet hands hadn't had time to dry. She opened the door wide and shouted, "Brother Tang!"
"Good morning, Shania. Tony..." Tang En outside the door saw Tang En appearing behind Shania.
Tang En also noticed a suitcase at Tang's feet.
"Got to go?"
Tang nodded: "This afternoon's air ticket."
"The plane in the afternoon, it's only in the morning, so there's no need to be so..." Tang En tilted his head, and saw a black taxi parked on the side of the road behind Tang En, with a familiar face in the rear window. He let out a oh. "I also said to send it to you, but now it seems that I don't need it."
Tang knew who the person Tang En saw was, he nodded: "She will go back with me."
Tang En nodded to show that he understood.
"I won't say much more, pay attention to safety, go early and return early."
Tang En smiled: "Maybe I can bring you a Chinese genius back?"
Tang En curled his lips: "Are you a table tennis genius?"
Don didn't respond to his sarcasm. He lifted the suitcase, said goodbye to the two men standing at the door, and turned to walk towards the taxi. Tang Jing in the taxi was also smiling and waving goodbye to Tang En, but Tang En pretended not to see it with a straight face.
After closing the door, Shania asked Tang En: "You don't really want to let Tang go, Uncle Tony."
"Of course, since he's gone, I have to do a lot of trivial things... and those things are the things I hate to do the most." Dunn shrugged, walked back to the living room, and continued to read his newspaper.
Shania looked at his back and smiled: "Alright, let you exercise!"
Tang En, who was sitting on the sofa, asked without looking back: "Are you very free recently, don't you have any work?"
"My work has been concentrated until Christmas time, and now I have a lot of time to rest."
Tang En lay on the sofa and stretched: "Never... have I seen such a laid-back professional model like you."
Shania was not in a hurry to go back to the kitchen, she curled her lips and sat down: "This time next year will not be so leisurely."
"how?"
"Mr. Fassal arranged some work for me, which has nothing to do with catwalk shows."
"A TV commercial?"
"No, make a movie." There was no joy in Shania's voice.
Tang En sat up from the sofa and looked at Shania who was sitting on the chair. "Why do I think your voice sounds unhappy, I should congratulate you..."
"It's just a character who doesn't even have a set of lines. There's nothing to congratulate."
Tang En smiled: "It turned out that I was not happy because I didn't become the protagonist. There are no natural protagonists in this world. Those big movie stars all started out of tricks without a single line. I remember that you like watching movies... ..."
Shania nodded: "Yes, it's because I like it, so I want to try what it would be like to act by myself, otherwise I would never agree to that kind of work..."
Tang En coughed: "You keep rejecting the jobs that Mr. Fasal arranges for you. This makes it very difficult for Mr. Fasal, Shania."
Shania shrugged, curled her lips, and said nothing.
Tang En looked at Shania's gloomy look with her head lowered. When he rolled his eyes, he suddenly thought of someone. The last time I saw that person, she said that she had gone to Hollywood to be a producer, maybe she could be of help?
Since it is something Shania likes, I should help her. Although the showbiz is in chaos all over the world, but...if anyone dares to bully Shania, I will definitely make the other party look good.
Moreover, if that person really develops well in Hollywood, it shouldn't be difficult for her to help take care of Shania, right?
Tang En heard the faint sound of splashing water coming from the kitchen, and he pointed. Shania also realized that she was in a hurry to open the door and forgot to turn off the water. With a scream, Shania jumped up and ran back to the kitchen.
Tang En also went upstairs. He wanted to call this friend and ask her to help.

"Tony?" Chris Gloria was a little surprised when she heard that it was Tang En's voice. "You haven't called me for so long, I thought you forgot me!"
Even through a telephone line and the entire Atlantic Ocean, Tang En could clearly feel the enthusiasm in this voice, and he let out an eh. I was indeed busy with work and neglected to contact her, but there may be another reason - I was a little afraid of facing Glonia's enthusiasm.
"Too busy with work...I'm sorry Chrissy. How are you doing in America? I haven't heard much from you."
Chris smiled: "I always know your latest gossip, Tony. You are always a celebrity in the sports media. How about that Turkish beauty?"
Tang En coughed twice: "In life, you will always face all kinds of scenery..."
Chris on the other end of the phone had already laughed, and when she finished laughing, she said, "You must have something to do when you call me, right?"
Tang En likes this smart person to communicate, some words don't need to be said by himself, the other party can understand, which can save a lot of trouble.
"Well...it's like this..." Tang En told Chris about Shania and his own expectations. Then he waited for the other party's reply.
There was silence on the other side for a while, and Gronia suddenly asked: "Tony, tell me, what is your relationship with Shania?"
Tang En was taken aback by the question, and then said: "How should I put it... Maybe it's more appropriate to say that she is her guardian in England?" When Shania moved here, her parents did communicate with Tang En, The words revealed the hope that Tang En would take good care of Shania, make her happy and at the same time supervise her.
"Is that so..." There was another silence, this time slightly longer, making Tang En think that the call was interrupted.
"Okay, if she comes here to develop, I will do my best to take care of her." Gloria said what Tang En most wanted to hear, and he was relieved. After all, Tang En is not a person who likes to beg for favors. He feels that it is a bad thing to owe favors to others and let others owe favors to himself. If there is any trouble, he is always used to solving it by himself. This is true whether it is before or after crossing. It's just that this time, he, the football coach, really can't help with Shania's matter...
"Thank you so much, Chris. I...uh, how should I thank you..." Dunn really didn't know how to repay the other party.
Gronia on the other end of the phone laughed again: "I think it's a good reward to hear the rebellious Tony Twain whisper and thank me carefully. This kind of Things don’t happen to everyone.”
Tang En scratched his head and giggled twice.
"You are my friend, so my friend's affairs are naturally my affairs." Gloria was a bit unfeminine, she showed her capable side, bold like those heroes in Chinese martial arts novels. "Don't say thank you, Tony. Besides, Tony, I found out some information just now, which may be helpful to you and Shania."
It turns out that the two silences just now were to find someone to inquire about the news? Tang En admired this woman's work style in his heart. He rarely admires women, because he may be a bit machismo, but Chris Glonia really convinces him.
"The film in which Shania played the role was produced by...United_Artists." If you are in the film industry, you must be familiar with this recognizable name. After hearing Glonia say After saying this name, I will be amazed. But Tang En is an otaku who doesn't know anything except football, he didn't respond at all, and waited for Gloria to continue talking.
Glonia also remembered Tang En's identity, and she smiled: "This is a very influential production company in Hollywood. It was first produced by Charlie_Chaplin, Mary_Pickford , Douglas_Fairbanks (Douglas_Fairbanks) and Griffith (D.W. Griffith) and other famous Hollywood figures jointly founded in 1919, it belongs to the MGM film company." After she said the names of so many film celebrities, Tang En finally understood the status of this company, but... what does this have to do with Shania? Those people are all old men.
Glonia knew that Dunn would not know the mystery behind this, and she continued to remind patiently: "A year ago, this company changed owners, and their new executive is Tom Cruise. Do you think about it?" What's up, Tony?"
Speaking of this familiar name, Tang En immediately reacted—"Tom Cruise? Isn't he a friend of David Beckham?"
Gloria snapped her fingers on the other end of the phone. "The answer is correct. You can use this relationship to officially introduce Shania to Tom Cruise. Not only in this movie, it will be of great help to her future development in Hollywood."
This news was indeed very useful to Dunn and Shania. Dunn once again thanked Glonia sincerely and warmly invited her to come to England. Afterwards, the two said goodbye to each other, hung up the phone, and went downstairs.
Shania had already cleaned up the kitchen, and was curling up on the sofa, watching a DVD while hugging Totoro's pillow. Tang En remembered that Shania had indeed watched movies more frequently than usual in the recent period. Could it be that she was thinking about how to act?
Although it's just a side character without a single line, she takes it very seriously...
Thinking of this, Tang En felt that it was the right thing for him to ask Gloria for help.
Shania doesn't like models, but she likes movies. If she can make some achievements as an actor...it would be great too!
Tang En smiled and sat next to Shania, looking at her.
Shania felt that it was a bit strange to ask your uncle today, so she turned her eyes away from the TV screen and turned to Tang En's face. "What's so happy about it, Uncle Tony?"
"Hmm..." Tang En thought for a while and decided to speak directly. "I'm going to introduce someone to you. If you like movies so much, I think you'll be interested."
"who?"
"Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise!" Tang En gestured and announced excitedly. "He is a good friend of David Beckham. I can use this relationship to find David and ask him to introduce you. In this way, when you develop in Hollywood, you will have one more friend, which is not very good. ?"
After Tang En finished speaking excitedly, he found that Shania looked at him with a strange expression, and was not as happy as he imagined. He felt strange: "What's wrong, Shania?"
"Uncle Tony..." Shania coughed, "I introduced you to David and his wife, right?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
"They met me before I met you. Victoria and I have a good relationship, so...I met Tom before I introduced you to each other. The role I played this time was also helped by Tom acquired……"
Tang En opened his mouth wide, as if he had heard a very wonderful story. Then he came to his senses and muttered angrily, "So I did all the work for nothing just now?"
Seeing Tang En looking down in frustration, Shania smiled slightly. She got up from the sofa, knelt behind Tang En, and put her arms around his neck. Twain could feel the two soft lumps on Shania's chest sticking to his back, and he was suddenly a little nervous.
"Although... But this is thanks to Uncle Tony." Shania said softly, and kissed Tang En on the cheek.
After kissing Shania, he let go of Tang En, jumped off the sofa, and stretched his waist: "You reminded me, Uncle Tony. I have to introduce my friend to you when I get a chance. Do you like Watch the Mission: Impossible series?"
Tang En hummed in a daze, he was still reminiscing about the kiss just now. Soft, wet, sweet... Although it was just a kiss on the cheek, it was still very beautiful.
The moment Shania's lips pressed against her, he could clearly feel his heart stop beating. At that moment, the heart suddenly contracted.
This was the closest contact he had with Shania during the long time he lived with her. He seemed to hear something break deep in his heart, making a "click" sound. He didn't know whether the sound represented a good thing or a bad thing.
When he recovered, Shania had already gone upstairs. Sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, Tang En slowly stretched out his hand, placed it on the side of Shania's kissed cheek, and gently stroked it.
Shania... Shania is no longer that soft and boneless child lying in her arms, sweating and suffering from a high fever...
He took the other hand and buried his face deeply in it.
