Chapter 483
This restaurant is indeed very remote.
Starting from Stamford Bridge, Allen drove for almost an hour before the three of them found this restaurant next to the Thames.
After confirming that there was no car following behind.
Li Shiguang took Simeone and Allen into the restaurant as quickly as possible.
This is a retro-decorated English restaurant. The walls of the lobby are hung with paintings that look a bit old. The yellow light shines on the wooden floor, emitting a warm luster.
"Ivanovic's agent is English?" Li Shiguang looked at Allen strangely.
"Naletirich?" Allen shook his head, "He seems to be Serbian too."
"Then why choose such a restaurant... It looks too authentic." Li Shiguang complained, "He wouldn't think we like to eat English food..."
There is a Chinese and an Argentine here, and no one likes to eat authentic British food.
Although Allen is a pure British, he has followed Li Shiguang's father and Li Shiguang for so long. Allen had long fallen in love with Chinese cuisine, and even asked someone to buy him a set of Chinese kitchen utensils. He would usually make fried potato shreds to satisfy his cravings when he had nothing to do at home.
"How about we change places?" Seeing that Li Shiguang was dissatisfied, Allen immediately suggested.
"Forget it, we're here now." Li Shiguang waved his hand and led the way inside, "This place is remote enough, and our main purpose is not to eat."
Soon.
Under the guidance of the waiter, the three of them came to a private room.
Allen stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a while, a face that was obviously of Eastern European descent stretched out from the crack of the private room door.
"It's me, Naletirich." Wearing a mask and a baseball cap, Allen could only lower his voice and take the initiative to greet.
Naletirich was obviously familiar with Allen's voice.
As soon as Allen finished speaking, he immediately opened the door completely, stepped aside, and made room for the entrance.
Li Shiguang walked into the door of the private room and saw Ivanovich sitting on the sofa at a glance.
The Serbian defender just sat on the sofa, lowering his head, not knowing what he was thinking about, and seemed not to notice that there were a few more people in the box.
"Brana!" Naletić walked to Ivanovic and patted him on the sofa, "What are you thinking about? Mr. Li and the others have arrived!"
"Ah!?"
Ivanovic was startled by Naletić's action, and his body shook instinctively, and then he focused his eyes on Li Shiguang, who had taken off his hat and mask.
After seeing clearly who was standing in front of him.
Ivanovic blushed and quickly stood up from the sofa, looking a little embarrassed: "Li... Mr. Li... Hello, sorry, I just... just... was thinking about something... didn't notice that you were here."
"Sorry, Mr. Li, Brana was just talking to me about some things that happened in the team recently, so I was a little..."
"It's okay."
Li Shiguang had a warm smile on his face and a gentle voice.
He looked at Ivanovic seriously, then stretched out his right hand: "Hello, Ivanovic, let me introduce myself. I am Li Shiguang, you can call me Li."
Seeing that Li Shiguang was not angry.
The young Ivanovic breathed a sigh of relief and quickly shook Li Shiguang's hand: "Hello, Mr. Li, you can just call me Brana."
After greeting.
Everyone sat down.
"Boss, do you want to eat first or...?" Allen, who was still standing, asked in a low voice.
Li Shiguang did not answer Allen immediately.
Instead, he turned his head to look at Ivanovic sitting next to him: "Brana, you must be hungry after waiting for so long, let's eat and talk?"
Ivanovic was startled, and a touch of emotion appeared in his eyes.
Whether he went to Leeds United or not.
At least at this moment, Li Shiguang gave him respect, which he had never felt since he came to Chelsea in the past few months.
You know, six months ago.
Ivanovic was still a hot commodity in the transfer market.
At that time, in addition to Chelsea, Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus were all paying attention to this right-back who performed well in the European Youth Championship.
Moreover, Juventus and AC Milan both proposed to Lokomotiv Moscow to introduce Ivanovic.
Regarding the choice of team and league.
At that time, Ivanovic, who was still playing in Russia, did not have a clear preference.
Later, he chose to come to Chelsea.
On the one hand, it was because Mourinho's tactical style was what Ivanovic liked, and on the other hand, Chelsea's owner, AbrahimoVecchi was generous enough, and he was paid a lot!
But when the winter transfer window opened, everything changed.
At that time, both Lokomotiv Moscow and Ivanovich had reached an agreement with Chelsea and signed a contract.
As a result, Mourinho left Chelsea first.
After the young Ivanovich came to Chelsea, he was demoted to the reserve team because Grant preferred the veterans in the team, and he did not play a formal game for nearly half a year.
To be honest.
This made Ivanovich, who had already become the absolute main force of Lokomotiv Moscow, feel insulted.
So when the agent Naletirich found Ivanovich and said that Leeds United wanted to introduce him, Ivanovich's first reaction was to leave!
But Ivanovich also knew that the decision to leave was not in his hands, at least not now!
I signed a four-year contract with Chelsea, and it has been less than a year. Abrahimovic is a man with plenty of money. My current situation in Chelsea is already very difficult. If I anger Abrahimovic by actively proposing a transfer and he does not let me leave, then in the next few years, my youth will be wasted on the bench or even in the reserve team.
This point.
Ivanovic cannot accept it.
Before Li Shiguang entered the box, Ivanovic was communicating this idea with Naletirich, which is why he did not notice that Li Shiguang and the other two had already entered the box.
····
The waiter served the dishes quickly, and did not let the hungry people wait too long.
Since we have said it, we can talk while eating.
Li Shiguang did not intend to be polite.
Just after cutting a piece of steak, before feeding it to his mouth, he asked Ivanovic directly: "Brana, what do you think about joining Leeds United?"
"Ah?" Ivanovic didn't expect Li Shiguang to be so direct. He was stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "No problem! Mr. Li, I am not happy in Chelsea. If there is a chance, I am very willing to leave London!"
But after saying that.
Thinking of the contract between himself and Chelsea.
Ivanovic's expression became lonely again...
