Chapter 184 There is always a feeling of falling into the pit
"Mr. Marquis, I'm very busy. If you have any questions, just tell me on the phone."
"Bastard, get me back quickly, or I'll call your mother!"
"you......"
Stephen still wanted to speak, but Marquis Bass had already hung up the phone.
In order not to let him, the cheap dad, disturb his mother's peaceful life now, Stephen had to come to the familiar and unfamiliar Langlet Manor after get off work.
"What's wrong with calling me?"
Seeing his cheap dad, Stephen said impatiently, he just wanted to leave this annoying place as soon as possible.
"You met you Uncle Vanderlit in the club today?"
Marquis Bass knew that his illegitimate son had always been dissatisfied with him, but he didn't care.
In fact, even the son born to his legal wife, the so-called legitimate son who can inherit his title, has a bad relationship with him.
"Uncle Van der Litt? You mean Mr. Van der Litt, the owner of William II Club who went to Crystal Palace Club today."
"Yes, he hugged you here when you were young."
"I don't remember. If you have anything, just say it quickly. I still have something to do."
Stephen was upset when he heard his childhood mention.
"Okay. Did Bernard talk to Chen Ran about his granddaughter Catherine?"
Seeing Stephen's impatient look, Marquis Bass shrugged helplessly. Knowing that he was not favored by his son, he simply stopped going around.
"What do you want to do?"
When Stephen heard the cheap dad mention this, he immediately became alert.
"It's nothing, please help match Chen Ran and Catherine. If this matter is done, it will be beneficial for Chen Ran himself and the Crystal Palace Club."
Marquis Bass poured a glass of red wine and drank it. He was very confident in convincing Stephen.
As long as Chen Ran nodded, a big beauty and a large sum of property will be obtained.
Others want such good things in their dreams, but only fools will push them out.
"Whether Chen Ran accepts Mr. Vanderlit's proposal or not, it should be up to Chen Ran to decide on whether to accept Mr. Van der Litt. This matter is his private matter and I will not interfere."
Stephen shook his head firmly.
Chen Ran and Cheryl have been together for more than two years and have always been good, so he is unwilling to be the villain who breaks up his friends and marriages.
"Stephen, Bernard wanted to match his granddaughter and Chen Ran for a reason."
So, Marquis Bass claimed that Van der Leight was already in advanced liver cancer and there was not much time left;
and his granddaughter Catherine lost her parents since she was a child and had some autism tendency;
Vanderrit also told Stephen all the things that he was worried that no one would take care of Catherine after his death.
Of course, he did not forget to praise Katherine's excellence.
After listening to the introduction of Marquis Bass, Stephen stopped talking.
From Vanderritt's perspective, it is completely understandable that he did this.
Moreover, he had a very good vision and picked Chen Ran at a glance.
As Chen Ran’s friend, Stephen knows better than everyone else how powerful Chen Ran is.
But, do you really want to persuade Chen Ran and Sheriel to break up for that Catherine?
Stephen hesitated.
Marquis Bass watched his son sit there frowning and not speaking, knowing that what he said just now had worked.
It was rare to see Stephen sitting in front of him honestly and obediently, Marquis Bass couldn't help but feel a little proud. He drank the red wine in his hand and had another glass of it.
Not sure how long it took, Stephen finally looked up at Marquis Bass.
"I would only suggest Chen to meet that Catherine. As for whether he will go and what choices he makes, I will not intervene any more."
"How can I just meet again? You..."
After hearing Stephen think about it for a long time and then giving him this answer, Marquis Bass was very dissatisfied. The good mood just now disappeared instantly.
However, as soon as he said halfway, he was interrupted immediately by Stephen.
"That's all I can do. Mr. Marquis, please don't be too tempted."
"Bastard! Is there anyone who talks to your father like this?"
"Then have you fulfilled your duty as a father?"
Without a single word, the father and son began to pick up the bull.
Stephen didn't want to come to this place at first. Seeing the situation in front of him, he got up and left.
"Stephen, you have to think clearly. Your dad, my old marquis, still has some energy in the British Empire. Do you think the Crystal Palace Club has developed too smoothly?"
Hearing the gloomy voice of Marquis Bass coming from behind, Stephen paused for a moment, and then walked out at a faster speed.
Stephen, who left Langtley Manor, was thinking about his cheap dad's last words. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something might happen.
People outside may think that his cheap dad is a maverick playboy, but only those around him know the terribleness of Marquis Bass.
After doing so many rebellious things, his position as a marquis is still as stable as Mount Tai.
Neither the British royal family nor the British government were as if they hadn't seen it.
Although I don’t know how much energy my cheap dad has, Stephen is very clear about one thing.
That is, "Maybe the energy of Marquis Bass is not enough to do something, but it can definitely make something impossible."
Thinking of this, Stephen didn't bother to go home, so he called Chen Ran out by phone.
"Stephen, it's rare that you asked me to come to the bar. I thought only Louis could do this."
Because this matter is not convenient for Cheryl to know, Stephen had to call Chen Ran to the bar they had visited before.
Stephen asked for a private room and drove all the service staff out.
Seeing these abnormal behaviors of his friends, Chen Ran immediately became serious.
It seems that Stephen made an appointment with him tonight, and there is something to talk about.
And judging from this situation, it may not be a trivial matter.
"Stephen, tell me, what happened?"
"Gudu Gudu..."
Stephen picked up a bottle of beer and took a big mouthful.
"Chen, do you remember the Mr. Vanderlitt who came to our club a few days ago?"
"Of course I remember, what's wrong?"
"It's a troublesome thing. He's my father's old friend. Today my father came to me and asked me to match you and Mr. Vanderlit's granddaughter Catherine. I don't want to, and then he threatened to attack our Crystal Palace Club."
"What?"
When Chen Ran's face changed drastically when he heard Stephen's words.
He didn't know how much energy the Marquis of Bass had, but as a veteran British aristocrat who had been passed down for hundreds of years, no one knew how deep his network was.
Compared with the Marquis of Bass, a joke is a kind of jazz.
"Isn't this matter urging by that old man Van derlit?"
When Chen Ran thought of the white-bearded old man, he was so angry that he was furious.
Temao's original simple thing has now developed into this.
It's a cheating father.
"It shouldn't be."
So Stephen recounted all the things that Marquis Bass told him about Van der Leight's condition, Catherine's condition, Van der Leight's concerns.
After hearing this, Chen Ran understood why Van der Litt had to match him and his granddaughter.
In theory, Chen Ran should be happy about such a pie that falls from the sky.
But why is he feeling a little amused now?
It seems that they are all too good to cause trouble.
"Chan, what do you think should be done now?"
Seeing that Chen Ran was not very upset, Stephen couldn't help asking. But he was secretly guessing in his heart that this guy wouldn't be moved, right?
"Stephen, isn't Mr. Vanderlitt just worried that no one will take care of Catherine after his death?"
"Yes, what? Chen, are you going to agree to Mr. Vanderlitt's proposal to date that Catherine?"
While saying that, Stephen looked at Chen Ran's expression carefully, as if he wanted to see his inner thoughts.
"This is not. In our country, there is a form called Yi Brother and Sister. You can understand it as a brother and sister who are not related by blood. Catherine and I can also take this method. After Mr. Vanderlit leaves, I can also take care of Katherine with legitimate reasons."
"are you serious?"
After Chen Ran explained in detail for a long time, Stephen finally understood what Chen Ran meant.
However, Stephen still looked at Chen Ran with a strange expression. Can this guy really resist such a great temptation?
"Otherwise? Can you come up with a better way? I don't want to test how much energy your dad has."
"This is indeed the best way, I don't know if Mr. Vanderlitt accepts it."
"In this way, you can stabilize your dad first. I will personally interview the old white-bearded man."
"Okay, I get it."
After sending Stephen away, Chen Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.
What's this?
Such a bloody plot will happen to me, which is really more bizarre than a novel.
It would be a lie to say that the beauty who fell from the sky was not moved.
But Chen Ran is self-aware. He is a novice in his relationship and devotes most of his energy to his football career.
Cheryl is very good, he likes it very much.
People should be content, otherwise they will harm others and themselves.
I learned from Stephen that Van der Leight is now living in King's College Hospital in London for a comprehensive physical examination. Chen Ran took flowers to the hospital the next day to visit the white-bearded old man.
"Haha, Chen, you're finally here. How about it? Have you considered it? I told you that my granddaughter will definitely be your most suitable partner."
Van der Leight, who was so bored in the hospital that he wanted to escape, saw Chen Ran coming, and he couldn't stop talking, so he pulled him to talk.
"Mr. Van der Litt, I've considered it. I like my current girlfriend very much and don't plan to break up with her. So, I can only refuse your kindness, I'm very sorry."
"Ah? Chen, do you want to think about it again? Don't rush to make a decision first, I'm not in a hurry."
Van der Litt really hoped that Chen Ran could be his grandson-in-law. Seeing Chen Ran directly refused, he was a little anxious.
"Mr. Van der Litt, don't worry. Stephen told me about your concerns. Although I cannot agree to your proposal, I have also come up with a solution to your troubles."
"Oh? What's the solution?"
Van der Leight was stunned and asked curiously.
So Chen Ran explained to Van der Litt what he told Stephen last night.
After listening, Van der Litt also looked at Chen Ran with a strange look, but he was no longer as excited as before.
After his eyes were "bumped" and roaming, Van der Litt nodded slowly.
"Your method is not bad. In this way, I'll let Catherine come to London and meet you two. Then, under everyone's witness, formally establish a relationship."
What does it mean to "formally establish a relationship"? Why does Vanderrit's words sound so awkward?
Chen Ran always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't find anything wrong.
After all, we can’t even see two people who have become righteous brothers and sisters before, right?
Then it was normal for Vanderrit to call Catherine to London.
"Since Mr. Van der Litt agrees with my proposal, can the cooperation between William II and Crystal Palace continue to move forward?"
"Haha, Chen, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I would have almost forgotten that my William II was about to be demoted."
“…”
Chen Ran looked at Vanderlit with a black head and laughing. The old man came to London not for William II's club, but for his granddaughter to date.
"Since the situation at William II's club is urgent, why don't we hurry up and negotiate, and I'd like to send Crystal Palace players to help as soon as possible."
"Ahem, don't worry. Before I came to London, I had transferred the ownership of William II's club to Catherine. After she arrived in London, you two would discuss it yourself. Anyway, it's a family soon, and you can do anything."
“…”
Looking at the smiling Vanderlitt, Chen Ran always felt like he was falling into a pit by himself.
These old foxes have become spirits one by one.
Compared to them, I am still too simple.
When a boy is away, he must protect himself, be careful, be careful, and be careful.
......
Shortly after Chen Ran left the hospital, Marquis Bass also came to the hospital to visit Vanderrit.
"Alexander, guess who came just now?"
Vanderlitt smiled like a weasel who had stolen a chicken.
"Seeing how happy you look, is it that little guy from China who is here?"
"Bingo! Alexander, I didn't expect that your intelligence will increase even when you are at this age."
"Get out. What? Did that little guy agree to your proposal?"
"No. But he made a new proposal."
"Oh? What's the offer?"
Marquis Bass also asked curiously.
Then, Van der Litt told Marquis Bass about Chen Ran's stuff.
