Chapter 440: Lin Quan Steps In, Haaland and His Father Visit
As expected, after the game ended, the same media that praised Paco as Valencia's next Villa the day before, now criticized him harshly for his poor performance and missed penalty. The fickleness of the media was indeed astonishing, changing their tune in just one day.
Poor Paco! He had never experienced such a thing before. The previous day, he was thrilled by the media's praise and the news that Barcel...

Chapter 62: The Moulins Infantry Regiment
The next day.
Many nobles at Versailles received invitations to attend a small ball that evening, hosted by the Duchess of Villars. Despite having danced through the night just before, no one declined the invitation—it was common for them to attend balls every night for a month, but a ball hosted by the Duchess of Villars was a rare event.
It was no secret that the financial situation of the Villars family was diff...

Joseph quickly made his way to the South Wing of the Versailles Palace, climbed to the second floor, and finally found the room mentioned in the note after navigating a long, narrow corridor.
He tried the door and found it unlocked, so he pushed it open and stepped inside.
"You're here?" A lazy, seductive voice came from what seemed to be the bedroom. "Please close the door."
Joseph closed the door, but left it slightly ajar, th...

After a while, Xiao Tian felt a large amount of cold water being poured into his mouth rather roughly. Some of it even went up his nose.
"Cough… cough cough…" Xiao Tian coughed violently and opened his eyes. Instantly, he saw a beautiful, noble face. He reached out to touch her face and murmured, "Yun'er, am I dead?"
Initially, Yun Yun wanted to push his hand away, but upon hearing his words, her hea...

Under the sparse moonlight, scattered beams shone through the cave entrance, illuminating the stone bed. Xiao Tian's head was buried in Yun Yun's ample chest as he breathed evenly.
"Mmm~" Yun Yun murmured softly and suddenly woke up. The first thing she noticed was Xiao Tian and the state of her own body. Embarrassing scenes from the previous night flooded her mind.
"Bang!" In an instant, Yun Yun pushed Xiao Tian off the bed. ...

It wasn’t just De Bruyne; both teams' players were looking at Lin Quan differently. They had seen direct free-kick goals before, b...
