I AM the Football Star Chapter 522 - 142: I Don’t Want to Lift the Trophy Without Y

After all, who let Morici frequently brag about how many girls he has dated, his prowess, stamina, and the like.

Turns out it was all just hot air.

Tricked Naji and fooled himself.

After hearing all this, Lu Yang suddenly felt Morici wasn’t that pitiful.

n, if you’re not a slick operator like Xiaobai, don’t pretend to be King of the Sea.

Otherwise, soday you’ll really et the Sea Queen, only to realize you’re just a seal, getting outsmarted and losing everything.

So Lu Yang gave Naji so advice, telling him to take care of Morici’s issue first.

Otherwise, Morici might feel a bit uneasy once he finds out.

A few dozen euros for a red packet is no big deal, but how you take it, brother, that’s crucial.

The next day, Morici discovered a gift box at his door just as he was heading out for a date with Tia.

Inside was a mid-range Tianshui brand watch, market priced at ten thousand euros.

There was a card next to it, which said: Wishing our friendship lasts forever.

No signature.

Theoretically speaking, nobody knows who sent it.

But it must have been sent by soone very close to Morici.

Clearly, it was from a teammate or soone from the coaching staff, not a fan.

So Morici accepted the watch with peace of mind.

The next day’s training, Naji saw Morici enter the locker room wearing the watch, and he took it off and placed it in his locker before heading to the training field.

This gave Naji so psychological comfort amidst his financial pain.

At least, Morici seed to really like the watch.

In fact, this was what Lu Yang initially thought too.

Until one evening, when Lu Yang was having dinner with Sofia, who had just flown back to San Remo, and Sofia griped: "Did you know that Morici recently got an expensive watch?"

The word "expensive" didn’t even need quotation marks.

Even soone extrely wealthy, if they’re sensible, can distinguish the price levels of items.

Soone with assets worth billions could easily spend tens or hundreds of thousands on a al.

But if you offer him fried rice from a street vendor for five hundred yuan, see if he eats it.

Even the rich man who ranted online for days after spending two thousand yuan on unsatisfactory Japanese cuisine in Chengdu.

A watch worth ten thousand euros is pricey anywhere... even if Sofia’s watch box mostly contains ones costing tens or hundreds of thousands of euros.

"What’s wrong?" Lu Yang asked, "Is Tia jealous?"

Thanks to Lu Yang and Morici, Sofia and Tia beca quick friends, reaching the stage where they occasionally have afternoon tea together. Recently, they’ve even arranged trips to Milan Fashion Week, organized smoothly by Sofia.

"Of course not, the watch is so old-fashioned." Sofia replied, "It’s just that Morici wears it every ti he goes to training, so Tia took special notice of it."

"She asked if you gave it to Morici, and I said definitely not."

Lu Yang tilted his head: "Why?"

Sofia laughed: "Because our Lu Yang never gifts anything to others!"

Lu Yang was stunned, then quite embarrassed.

Sofia was elegantly and artfully hinting to Lu Yang that, though they’ve known each other for quite so ti, he hasn’t really given her any gifts yet?

As his rumored girlfriend, isn’t it fair to nurture our relationship a bit?

"Uh... well..." Lu Yang could only gripe, "Damn Morici!"

Sofia smiled gently, sparing Lu Yang so dignity.

She believed, after her subtle hint, that Lu Yang would surely surprise her in the coming days.

Sigh... as a woman, wanting gifts and surprises ans having to worry oneself.

It truly is a bit tireso.

But who told her to fall for such a guy?

Such a little rascal!
