Chapter 497: Old George's Funeral
Lukaku's injuries have stabilized after his amputation. A group of Manchester United players and coaches came to Manchester City Hospital to visit Romelu Lukaku.
Lukaku forced out a smile and showed a mouthful of big white teeth: "Hey, I watched the game you played against Everton last time. The kick was fantastic. ”
The players fell silent, and no one knew how to comfort Lukaku. For a professional footballer, amputation is the end of half of his life.
Lukaku continued to laugh and said: "What's wrong? Why don't you speak? That's right! My No. 9 jersey is still empty. Give it to the song! His performance deserves the number! ”
Qu Bai walked to Lukaku's bedside: "Lukaku." Thank you, thank you. ”
Lukaku shook his head: "Play well!" I'll be following you on TV! You have the potential to become a superstar! Also, treat our little princess well! Don't look at me now, if you dare to be sorry for our little princess, I promise I'll go to the Catington training base and give you two punches. ”
Coming out of Manchester City Hospital, Liu Yun felt very uncomfortable. Good people, just like that, a lame leg. Liu Yun remembered the days when he partnered with Ibrahimovic and Lukaku, those goals, and those exclusive goal celebrations of LIL.
The bodyguard Dardania carried Liu Yun home.
Liu Xiaoyan was holding a babbling little Coke, while Isabella was in the room to help her pack her luggage.
Imperial College London is about to open and it's her last week at home.
Isabella seemed to fill her entire home with Liu Xiaoyan's suitcase. Food, use, and clothing are all available.
Liu Xiaoyan couldn't help but complain: "My mother! It's not like London is without supermarkets... Even the sanitary napkins you have prepared for me for more than half a year... There's no need! ”
Liu Yun also helped on the side: "Isabella, don't spoil her." What to use she will buy herself. Besides, it's not like she's not going home. ”
Liu Xiaoyan nodded: "That's right!" In the future, whenever Manchester United plays at home, I will go back to Manchester to watch the game. ”
Isabella pulled up her daughter's joke: "Is it to watch the ball or to watch the people?" ”
In Liu Xiaoyan's room, there is a model of the Spitfire fighter given to her by Sir Farker Ereva.
After graduation, it is Liu Xiaoyan's dream to build an aircraft that flies faster and carries more people.
Liu Yun picked up the delicate fighter model: "How beautiful." After graduating from college in 3 years, will you be able to design such a beautiful plane? ”
Liu Xiaoyan nodded: "Dad, don't worry." Maybe I made the plane that Manchester United flew on in the future. ”
Little Cola began to babble and laugh again.
Liu Xiaoyan was shocked: "It's not good, Xiao Cola is going to pee again!" This black-bellied Lori babbles and laughs every time she pulls poop before peeing. ”
Liu Yun returned to his room, and the phone of agent Goodman rang: "Hey, Liu." Our old friends ... Old George is gone. ”
At the beginning, Goodman was recommended by George Sr. to Liu Yun as his agent. George Sr., who is already terminally ill in cancer, has carried Coventry through last season's schedule with tenacity.
Liu Yun was stunned.
Two days later, Liu Yun came to the funeral of George Sr.
Alexander, Manla, Ruan... A number of former Coventry team members came with their families.
The priest said, "The Lord bless him in peace, Amen." ”
On the coffin of George Sr., covered with a Coventry flag. George Sr. has dedicated his life to this team. Even on his deathbed, he was still concerned about Coventry's first round of League One.
Just when everyone was about to fill in the soil on George's coffin, they suddenly found that around the cemetery, countless Coventry people with white daisies in their hands slowly gathered and walked towards the cemetery to mourn the old George of the Coventry team.
Thousands of Coventry people sang the Coventry team song:
"It's a long, long road when you go through life. Through the disaster, we move on. Kids in this sky blue, keep going, Coventry! Although you have experienced disasters, although the road is long, and your heart beats hard, although you are tired, we continue to move forward. Oh, the glory of Coventry, the sky blue jersey! Coventry! Coventry! ”
High-pitched singing echoes over the cemetery. This is the last farewell of the Coventry people to George Sr.
After the funeral, a group of teammates hugged and parted.
Alexander patted Manla's shoulder: "Tower, my brother, Coventry depends on you this season." ”
Manla gestured to her teammates, "Hmm! I won't go it alone. I still have them. George Sr.'s last wish is for Coventry to be promoted to the Championship this season. For the sake of old George's last wishes, we will fight! ”
Liu Yun said to Manla: "If the Coventry team needs any help, please let me know." I will spare no effort to help our team. Even though I'm no longer in Coventry, I'm still part of the Coventry team! ”
Manla said, "Thank you, Liu. Before he died, Coach George said to me that lifting the FA Cup trophy with the old lieutenant was the happiest and proudest moment of his life. ”
Ru An walked up to Liu Yun: "Hey, old lieutenant." In the third round, Leeds United will face Manchester United away. Again, I won't show mercy. ”
Liu Yun shook Ru'an's hand: "Okay, I'll wait for you at Old Trafford." ”
Returning home from Coventry, Liu Yun was stunned.
During this time, he attended the funerals of too many relatives and friends. Second Aunt, Mkhitaryan, Old George... When people get older, they can't see life and death.
Goodman called Liu Yun: "Liu, there is a program on SKY TV that wants you to participate. Among the guests in attendance were SKY TV commentators Deng Fei and Bob. ”
Liu Yun smiled dumbly: "Deng Fei? Is it the same Dunphy who made a bet that I must have taken a doping and ended up gnawing on my partner's ass? ”
Goodman replied, "Yes." Now whenever there is a match for you, SKY TV will send him to commentate. ”
Liu Yun said: "Okay. I accepted the invitation of SKY TV. ”
Liu Yun walked down the living room and told Isabella and Liu Xiaoyan about doing the show with Deng Fei and Bob.
Liu Xiaoyan laughed: "Dad, you can't hear the big-mouthed Dunphy's explanation when you are playing." You don't know, he's your big fan right now. He's even half a Manchester United fan because of you. ”
Liu Yun took the little cola from Liu Xiaoyan's hand and hugged it: "I still remember when he swore that I had 200% of the stimulants. How did you become a fan of mine now? ”
Liu Xiaoyan said: "Ahem, Dad, you don't know. In the game against Everton, he commented that you and Qu Bai are Manchester United's Chinese twin stars. ”
