Chapter 2263: Chapter 578: Entering to Find Lai Fu Beating Chang Wei

Barry Hearn, sitting beside, grabbed Phil Collins and said, "Just for my sake, don’t use the shotgun today."

Phil Collins sat at the table with an angry expression.

Barry Hearn waved to Huang Kaiwen and said, "We meet again, Kevin. Phil and I have been friends for a long time."

"Thanks for speaking on my behalf just now."

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

"Where did you hear that from?"

Barry Hearn asked.

Huang Kaiwen blinked and said, "Mr. Collins said he’d shove the shotgun into my mouth, but I think my mouth might not be that big."

Barry Hearn slapped his thigh and laughed heartily, pointing at Phil Collins, "See, I told you, Kevin’s a good guy. You shouldn’t judge him with prejudice."

"Let your daughter date him, then tell me that."

Phil Collins said somewhat angrily.

Barry Hearn shook his head with regret and said, "If she hadn’t gotten married so early, I’d really have let her try."

He was being sincere.

If Huang Kaiwen became his son-in-law, they could hold eight different events in a year.

Soon, he could make it to Forbes as a sports promoter.

Lily pulled Huang Kaiwen to sit by the table.

Phil Collins promptly snorted and turned his head away.

Huang Kaiwen took out a gift box from his pocket, placed it on the table, and said, "This is a gift for you, a customized commemorative watch from Milan’s six-time championship."

"I don’t want it, take it away."

Phil Collins said, "If I like something, I’ll buy it myself. I don’t need anyone else’s charity."

"Dad!"

Lily shook Phil Collins, but only got a cold snort in response.

Barry Hearn immediately said, "Since you don’t want it, I’ll take it. Many clients love this kind of valuable collectible."

"No way!"

Phil Collins reached out to stop Hearn’s hand.

He quickly explained, "This kind of thing is not suitable for gifting. I’ll bury it in the yard later."

Even Lily couldn’t help but laugh.

She promptly said, "It’s so late. It’s not safe for us to leave now. You know how bad the security in London is; you don’t want us to have an accident, right?"

"Then you sleep in the guest room, he stays in the visitor room."

Phil Collins said, "Just for one night."

Lily quickly pulled Huang Kaiwen upstairs.

Her dad had this kind of temperament.

Though not really a nice person in terms of relationships, his character wasn’t that complicated either.

Inside the villa, Huang Kaiwen saw many photos.

They were all Phil Collins with other musicians.

Lily introduced, "He’s always liked music."

"I can tell."

Huang Kaiwen nodded and said.

For someone as famous as Phil Collins, you’d expect photos with some celebrities and politicians.

But not a single one was displayed, showing his inner thoughts.

That night, Old Collins didn’t cause any more trouble.

Early the next morning, Huang Kaiwen and Lily made breakfast together.

Phil Collins came downstairs and, seeing breakfast, his mood improved a bit, but he immediately asked, "Are you leaving soon?"

"Of course!"

Lily held onto Huang Kaiwen’s arm and said, "Kevin is a member of the Dutch coaching team, and he has to report to the coaching staff and make strategies with Mr. Van Marwijk."

"Oh, strategies!"

Phil Collins said, dismissively, "The Dutch don’t value your tactical abilities; they want someone to take the fall."

"I’m prepared for that, Mr. Collins."

Huang Kaiwen smiled as he placed bacon in front of Collins.

"If I were you, I’d say I’m sick now and not go to the Netherlands national team."

Phil Collins said irritably, "Even Jesus can’t unite the Dutch."

"Perhaps it’s not that bad, I’d like to give it a try."

Huang Kaiwen said.

"Kevin is not someone who gives up easily!"

Lily chimed in.

Phil Collins immediately dropped his knife and fork, "I won’t eat, it’s not good at all."

However, he didn’t leave the table.

After Huang Kaiwen and Lily finished breakfast and left, they could sense someone watching them from the second floor.

"Once we’re at the base, go to the hotel first and make sure not to wander off."

Huang Kaiwen instructed.

"Alright, alright."

Lily said impatiently, "When you’re in Ukraine, don’t get deceived by women."

Huang Kaiwen laughed and put his arm around Lily’s neck, heading to the taxi with her.

This European Cup had several host countries.

The Netherlands team’s initial matches were in Ukraine, so they were heading directly to Kharkov.

This time the flight was a little longer.

When they arrived, they went to the hotel to settle in.

Huang Kaiwen didn’t join the coaching staff until the next day.

There weren’t any players there yet.

He quickly got acquainted with the coaching staff members.

After all, Huang Kaiwen seldom voiced opinions, which made it easy for him to blend into the coaching group.

May 24th.

The Dutch players finally gathered at the base.

Huang Kaiwen woke up a bit late because Lily insisted on some exercise.

When he arrived at the locker room door, he saw Sneijder standing there.

"Morning, Wesley."

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

"Kevin..."

Sneijder looked a bit unnatural as he said, "It has nothing to do with me."

"What’s nothing to do with you?"

Today Sneijder seemed a bit baffling.

When Huang Kaiwen pushed open the locker room door, he saw Robben, Huntelaar, and Kuyt fighting van Persie.
