Maybe Tang En was the only one in the entire world who believed in Dunn's ability. But if he could not make anyone else believe, even if Dunn was outstanding, it would be pointless. He had invited Dunn on an impulse, and should not let Dunn leave just because he could not get the trust of others. He had to be responsible for his actions.
Furthermore, Tang En also knew that to make others believe in Dunn's ability, the best way was to prove it with actual results. But would others give Dunn this opportunity and time? Tang En did not know.
First of all, he would have to clear this with Evan.
Twain could certainly use his authority to forcibly put Dunn in the assistant manager position. But as a result, his reputation in the team would be affected and it would cause an irreparable rift between him and Evan. This was not what Tang En wanted.
Now, besides attending the coach training courses of the English Football Association, Dunn rarely appeared outside. He seemed to be trying hard to make up for the year-and-a-half of lost time. But seeing Dunn like this gave Tang En a bigger headache instead. Dunn was not good at communicating with people. He could converse more with him, perhaps because they shared the same fate.
In reality he was quite lazy as a person and disliked trouble. So why was he always taking the initiative to attract such trouble?
When he returned home every day, Tang En would chatter nonstop, even if Dunn only spoke ten words that night. He would continue talking and chat about the things he had encountered when he first got here and about every little thing that had happened over the last year and a half. If there had been nothing to say, he would have just said some nonsense.
He only hoped that the reticent Dunn would get livelier. He did not expect him to jabber on in a torrent, but he also did not want him to be so uncommunicative and to have nothing to talk about but football.
Every time Tang En tried to get him to go have a drink at Kenny Burns' bar, he always shook his head and refused. If he asked him the reason, he would not explain except to say he had vowed not to drink. Tang En tried many ways, but he just refused to go. Tang En finally had met a man who was more stubborn than he was.
Evan would be back tomorrow. He had specially called him and wanted him to bring the assistant manager along to meet him. It seemed he was also concerned about the team's assistant manager.
What would happen tomorrow?
Looking at Dunn, who was still poring over the video of a football game, Tang En scratched his head.
”Dunn... Well, tomorrow, Evan—that's the young Mr. Chairman of the club, I spoke to you about him before—He wants to... he wants to meet you.”
Dunn knew what was going on when he saw Tang En's sighs.
”Are you worried that my identity won't be accepted?”
Tang En nodded. ”It really is ironic. A Chinese guy who doesn't understand anything is immediately accepted, just because of his body. But the real football coach can't get the opportunity to prove himself because he's in another skin. Hey, Dunn, do you ever hate me? You know, because everything I have now was supposed to be yours?” Tang En had had this worry when he found Dunn. A position that originally belonged to him was snatched away by a stranger who did pretty well, but in turn, he... Tang En did not know what to say.
