Chapter 13: The Unruly Mancini (Please add this to your collection and recommend it)
Mantovani helped the two people find a temporary apartment with a classic Mediterranean balcony and a commercial area downstairs.

This way you can integrate into the city as quickly as possible.

And it’s not easy to find a good house at short notice.

What’s interesting is that this apartment is Mantovani’s property, and Lu Deyang’s neighbor is Mancini.

No wonder Mancini later said that Mantovani was like his father.

It is very convenient to go shopping just downstairs. Monica excitedly went up and down, carrying various shopping bags in her hands, and decorated her new home with her favorite elements.

"How about we grow some flowers, dear?"

Monica Bellucci said: "Hydrangea represents hope. I hope we have a good start in Genoa. This flower was introduced to Europe from China."

"That's fine, but I prefer steel wool. Its flower language means forbearance and wealth."

Lu Deyang said subconsciously.

Monica was a little confused, and Lu Deyang immediately went over to introduce her.

"You bastard!"

Monica slapped him on the arm in annoyance and scolded him with a smile: "Can you accept an 80-year-old lady?"

"If you wait until you are 80, I might consider it."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Monica put her arms around his neck.

"I have to prepare for the national exam in a few days, so it shouldn't be a problem," Monica said.

After graduating from high school in Italy, there is a simple exam called L'esame di maturità, and if you pass the exam you can go to university.

But there are special exams for highly competitive professions, including medicine and law.

Monica wants to go to the University of Genoa, and she needs to prepare for the next exams. If she passes the exams in September, she can go directly to school in October.

"You clean up first. I'm going to visit the neighbors to see if my future teammates are at home," said Lu Deyang.

"Take the gift and wallet, and call me in advance if you're going out to play."

Monica warned.

"Don't worry, I'll ask you to go out with me even if we meet for the first time."

Lu Deyang picked up a bottle of red wine that came with the whiskey purchase, walked directly to Mancini's door, and knocked three times with the second joint of one finger.

After waiting for two or three minutes without any response, when Lu Deyang was about to leave, a woman in pajamas opened the door and asked, "Excuse me?"

"I'm a new player of Sampdoria. I heard that Roberto lives here, so I came to visit him." Lu Deyang shook the red wine in his hand and said, "Now we are neighbors for the time being."

The other party glanced at the door behind Lu Deyang and said in surprise: "So that's how it is. No wonder Mantovani called and said there might be a new neighbor. Come in quickly."

She turned around first and went back to change her clothes.

Italians don't care about this.

But it's not a good idea to dress so casually in front of Mancini's teammates.

When Lu Deyang entered the room, he saw Mancini with a gloomy face. The young Mancini looked a little fierce.

Considering that the couple were dressed in tatters, you could tell what these two were doing.

"Good day, Roberto, I just signed with Sampdoria. I have always liked you, so I came to visit you specially." Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Mancini looked constipated.

He couldn't get angry even when the other person said she liked him.

I could only nod with a gloomy face, turn around and walk towards the bathroom, ready to wash my face with water to calm down.

Mrs. Mancini, who had changed her clothes, came over to take the red wine, pulled Lu Deyang to sit on the sofa and said, "Roberto and I are cleaning. We bought other houses, but I like living here more, so I came back to live here. Oh my God... How rude, I'm Federica."

"Lu Deyang, the last name comes first, I am Chinese." Lu Deyang said: "I want to visit you today and invite you to dinner."

"That's great. Roberto doesn't have many friends, and it's nice to have a new friend like you." Federica said enthusiastically.

She knew very well what kind of bad temper her husband had.

During the last World Cup, he was caught running out with his teammates late at night. The coach wanted to forgive him, but he refused to apologize and was expelled from the national team.

The situation at next year's World Cup may not be any better.

Maybe making more new friends can help change his bad temper.

"I'm from Naples. Did you just transfer here from abroad?"

Federica asked.

"No, I was adopted by my uncle since I was a child and live in Reggio Calabria. I used to play football for Regina," said Lu Deyang.

"Oh my..." Federica covered her mouth, stood up, and pulled out a gossip magazine from beside the TV. Pointing at the cover, she asked, "Is that you? That's a great photo."

Lu Deyang was also stunned for a moment.

Unexpectedly, he was photographed racing with Monica before, and he was recognized even though he was wearing a helmet.

"It says that you used some means to trick a beautiful girl away. That girl is a very promising model." Federica said with a smile: "I always feel that the person who wrote the article seems to be jealous of you. After all, you two seem to be a good match."

"Thank you."

Lu Deyang said.

Mancini, his face wet, walked out of the bathroom, having listened to the conversation between the two. He said, "Since you're worthy of a foreign player spot, it means Mr. Mantovani recognizes you. I hope you can show your performance and prove he was right."

Federica immediately widened her eyes.

Lu Deyang didn't care much.

He had already guessed what Mancini would do.

"Don't worry, I'm a good passer."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Mancini turned around and put on his windbreaker, and urged impatiently: "Let's go, let's have a meal together, I don't want to be criticized by Mr. Mantovani."

Federica pouted at Ludyan. Her husband just had such a weird personality.

Lu Deyang got up and went home to call Monica.

The four of them took Mancini's car to a restaurant called Carmine.

Mancini took the initiative to ask the two people about their preferences and was responsible for ordering food. This guy is quite enthusiastic.

Federica said: "Two days before every season, the president of Sampdoria invites the whole team to this restaurant for a party. We are like a family."

“It looks nice here.”

Monica said.

"Yes, the seafood here is delicious, and the lasagna is excellent. Roberto likes lasagna, and he has a sweet tooth..." Federica talked endlessly.

"You really know Mr. Mancini. Haven't you been married for only two years?"

Monica asked.

The weddings of football stars are reported in newspapers.

"We have known each other for a long time. My father and his father have a good relationship, and my father and he are also very good friends," said Federica.

Lu Deyang thought about it briefly.

Mancini and your father are close friends, so he is your uncle?

Mancini's attitude improved a lot during the meal.

I guess the main reason in the afternoon was that mating was interrupted. No animal could stand this kind of thing.

"Smoking, boy?"

Mancini asked, wiping his mouth with a napkin.

Italian food uses very few ingredients but lots of olive oil.

"I usually don't smoke, but sometimes I can't refuse."

Lu Deyang said.

"Then don't smoke. Gianluca just smokes and he doesn't listen to my advice. Sooner or later he will be ruined by tobacco." Mancini complained.

The Gianluca he was talking about was Vialli.

There's no way to explain this.

After all, tobacco companies used to promote crazily in order to make money, and there were similar lines in movies all over the world, saying that men should smoke and so on, and that women smoking was regarded as a symbol of progress and fashion.

There are a lot of heavy smokers in the football world now. Zidane was still smoking before the World Cup final. The only difference is whether the media photographed him or not.

There are also a lot of heavy smokers in Milan.

Even around 2010, Berbatov of Manchester United was smoking, and before that, so was Barthes.

It was rather unfair that Rooney was photographed smoking, as he was the type who lit a cigarette after drinking to show off, and he himself didn't smoke much.

"It seems like you have a lot in common."

Federica interjected.

Mancini said nothing.

Lu Deyang asked: "Does your name come from Germany? I remember that William II's granddaughter was named this."

“Yes, you are really well-read!” Federica exclaimed. “Everyone only knows that I am from Naples, but you are the first person to ask me if I am of German descent.”

"Aren't you afraid that he will get angry if you praise other men?"

Monica quipped.

Federica joked: "If Gianluca Vialli praised another man, he would probably be angry."

Everyone laughed except Mancini.

The relationship between him and Vialli is very good indeed.

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Mancini took the initiative to pay the bill.

After returning home, Monica washed up and immediately pretended to sleep, fearing that Lu Deyang would do something else. Lu Deyang, who was somewhat bored, opened the system and saw that the task was completed.
