Chapter Ten Giancarlo

  At least for now it's a happy ending for everyone.

  The pheasants were carrying big and small bags of things to Chen Haonan's home.

  Chen Haonan took out the money that had just been deposited for less than half a day and, together with his younger brothers, swept through the supermarket buying many things.

  Today is his son's birthday, as he said, let's splurge and have a big feast, money is important, but it's also fleeting.

  They don't know that the 16,000 yuan in their hands was earned by Chen Haonan with his own life, and it was earned with two IOUs.

  The clever mountain chicken and Baopi dragged behind, muttering in a low voice.

  "When will Brother Nan become strong again? Is there really a club that wants him?" The mountain chicken didn't quite believe the reality in front of him, so he had this thought, but he didn't dare ask Chen Haonan again because Chen Haonan always brushed it off.

  He is already hard to come by, able to solve the current predicament. His heart is filled with guilt towards his boss, so he works especially hard and even helps Haonan's mother in the kitchen to do her part.

  That day was Haonan's son's birthday, and the meal was also a joyful reunion, as if they had returned to their youth.

  In fact, this is still his youth, but 16-year-old Chen Haonan has become a father.

  After getting drunk and full, Chan Ho-nam took them to find Oscar as promised, in order to clear his gambling debt and also to gain some peace for the Mountain Chicken before he left Rio de Janeiro.

  Although his prospects were not great, just an unpredictable future, he was worried, too many worries.

  Oscar is a big guy, about the same age as Chen Haonan, but half a head taller than Chen Haonan.

  Chan Ho-nam is considered tall, of course, this is relative to the Chinese people, but when Oscar stands in front of him, he still looks incredibly strong.

  In addition to Oscar, there were fifteen or sixteen young people in the house, each with a ferocious and sinister appearance, it was unclear whether they were pretending or really looked so unlikable.

  Chen Haonan gave a wink to Shanji, and Shanji cleverly threw the money to Oscar.

  Oscar took the money without a word and sneered, his laughter full of contempt and disdain, completely looking down on them.

  "Consider yourselves lucky, I won't have to come over there myself to collect."

  "Oscar, your business is booming, why bother playing with these kids who don't understand the situation, they're still young."

  Damn it, asking for help is really humiliating! Chen Haonan didn't want to say this, but for the sake of Shanji and the others, he had no choice but to swallow his pride once again.

  "Hao Nan, you're already half-crippled, yet you still want to protect these few ignorant kids? Do you really think you have a lot of face? If it weren't for Jian Carlos' sake, I would've taken them down long ago."

  Oscar spoke without looking at Chen Haonan, as if he didn't exist.

  What he meant was not giving face to Haohan's disability, but rather giving face to Carlos.

  Jim Carlos, a Western District figure known to Chan Ho-nam.

  Who is he? He is an attacking midfielder for Paraná in the Brazilian top division, born in 1995, three years older than Chen Hao-nan, and currently nineteen.

  At a young age, he has already been hailed as the next Pelé.

  Of course, there is only one Pele in this world, but being able to be compared with Pele shows that Jian. Carlos is not simple.

  It turns out that Carlos and Chen Haonan's acquaintance was also a fate.

  That year's Brazilian Youth League final was the Paraná youth team represented by Carlos against Chen Haonan-led Rio de Janeiro civilian team, and Chen Haonan's team defeated Carlos' team in the final.

  Both players appeared on the field as main attacking midfielders.

  Carlos was defeated with a good attitude, and only after the game did he learn that Chen Haonan, who is three years younger than himself, also came from the slums of Rio de Janeiro, which led to a deep friendship.

  Carlos even humbly asked Chen Haonan for advice on football techniques. At that time, 12-year-old Chen Haonan pointed out some technical deficiencies of Carlos, and after improvement, Carlos smoothly entered the Paraná first team...

  It's too complicated to delve into, but in short, Chen Haonan and Carlos have a deep connection, while Chen Haonan and Oscar have grievances. However, the most important thing is that Carlos is Oscar's cousin...

  Oscar had to give his elder cousin some face, but he couldn't stand Chen Haonan, perhaps out of jealousy, or perhaps due to their different backgrounds...

  At this time, Chen Haonan was able to come and negotiate with Oscar, naturally because of the existence of Carlos.

  Chen Haonan often thought that if he could stand at Carlos' height, perhaps the Oscar in front of him would be treated with a different attitude. Only now, he is not only disabled but also a gigolo...

  In theory, betting on the ball is a matter of mutual consent, and Chen Haonan should not have been involved in the first place. But Shanji and his friends are still young, it's impossible for them to use such a large bet, because they simply can't afford to pay back, there must be a big inside story behind this.

  The pheasants also confessed honestly, all of which were due to their usual dissatisfaction and constant gambling with Oscar, accumulating huge debts. In a fit of rage, the pheasant led his men to gamble on such a large scale, resulting in even more disastrous consequences...

  Dicky Cheung can only scold the mountain chicken, being set up by others without even realizing it.

  Even this little soldier can be used as a pawn to bring benefits to the Zhuang family, let alone those who are not even pawns... Even death doesn't know how to die...

  "From now on, please just let it go and don't let them get involved." Although he had to lower his head under someone else's roof, Chen Haonan continued in a low and humble tone, his voice full of pleading.

  Everyone has a temper, but those country bumpkins don't understand why Chen Haonan is so timid and insists on following them here, even helping them to mediate the so-called "settlement" of the matter.

  Although they were in the wrong, was it necessary to go this far?

  But the two pheasants glanced around at the existence of more than a dozen people and finally didn't dare to make a sound.

  "This thing is simple, as long as these little brats stay put in the East District and don't run around like headless flies, then it's fine if they pay me some protection money every month. Haonan, don't think that Carlos can cover for you for a lifetime, he's him, I'm me, I don't need to buy their account all the time!"

  Scolding the neighbors and asking them for protection fees, what's the difference between that and asking me for protection fees? Screw it, won't even let people live?

  Chen Haonan's sword-like eyebrows stood upright, his eyes turned sharp and piercing, directly and fiercely stabbing towards Oscar.

  "Don't push people too far, are you giving Carlos face? I'm telling you, I'm also giving Carlos face..."

  It's clear that it's not Oscar giving face, but Chen Haonan giving face!

  The pheasant heard the gunpowder flavor in Chen Haonan's words and quickly pulled Duopi to get closer to Chen Haonan.

  Oscar was enraged by Chen Haonan's words and looked over at him for the first time with a fierce gaze.

  "You... have a certain charm."
