The Gears of Fate Begin to Turn

Under the silver-bullet offensive of the young lady, the three great miracle doctors descended upon the city of Milan via private jet.

The players of the two Milan giants benefited from this as well; even the Inter Milan players crowded around to pull strings for medical consultations. Gathering all three miracle doctors at once was an incredibly rare opportunity.

There were many precedents in the football world where players sentenced to career death were saved by miracle doctors and went on to extend their careers. Each of these three big shots had changed the fate of many football stars.

Under these circumstances, the players naturally couldn't sit still.

Even Moggi called Berlusconi to ask to send players to Milan for treatment.

The whole world was happy, except for the world where Huang was injured.

Huang Kaiwen's plan to shift the blame onto the Milan veterinarians hadn't even been implemented before it died a quiet death.

After a consultation and treatment by the miracle doctors, his injury would allow him to return to the team in early August, giving him over a week of training before the season opener.

Ancelotti was overjoyed upon hearing this news and went home that night to open a precious bottle of red wine he had kept since his playing days.

The only thing that gave Huang Kaiwen a glimmer of comfort was that Lieven Maesschalck felt the Milan Lab's philosophy ran counter to his own, and he ultimately did not join Milan.

However, the miracle doctor indicated that Huang could call him anytime if there were problems in the future.

Huang Kaiwen decided to delete his contact information the moment Barbara fell asleep that night.

Even without the two Belgian miracle doctors, there was still the local Italian, Gianni Nanni, who was also a big shot.

With Gianni Nanni around, it wouldn't be easy for Huang Kaiwen to fake an injury.

The guy could get a player back on the pitch in 105 days even if their cruciate ligament was shattered into pieces. Let alone in football, looking at the whole world, he was likely the top expert in treating knee injuries.

Just because he was a knee expert didn't mean he couldn't treat other injuries; he was simply exceptionally prominent in knee trauma.

Thinking of this, Huang Kaiwen felt particularly uncomfortable. Couldn't Dr. Meersseman show some backbone? He was the head of the Milan Lab and its founder, a man of great service who had laid a solid foundation for the health of Milan players. If it weren't for his "blind" treatments, Milan might have actually defended their Champions League title. A man capable of changing the football world single-handedly—how could he give up his position as chief team doctor so easily?

Damn it, Huang Kaiwen prepared to hire a private investigator to look into Dr. Meersseman and, while he was at it, manipulate him. Huang Kaiwen would secretly support him, letting Dr. Meersseman unite with other team doctors to stage a "Return of the King" and squeeze Nanni back to Bologna.

The waters in a big club like Milan were too deep; Nanni wouldn't be able to handle it.

He and Dr. Meersseman had a deep bond; he couldn't bear to see an honest man get bullied.

On August 1st, the entire Milan squad was invited to Huang Kaiwen's home.

Teammates who hadn't been seen before were all in attendance.

Seeing Kaka, Huang Kaiwen, who could already stand, walked straight up and gave him a hug: "It's a pity I couldn't see you earlier. I really liked you when I watched Sao Paulo's matches. It's great to be able to play football with you."

"Thank you," Kaka smiled shyly, feeling that Huang Kaiwen was a very kind person.

[Ding, obtained 50 Fate Points]

After Huang Kaiwen calmly greeted teammates he hadn't met yet, such as Tomasson, he immediately made an excuse to go to the restroom to check the system.

Just as he thought, it was Kaka.

[Change the fate of future Golden Ball winner Kaka.]

He clicked on the fate display below.

Images appeared immediately.

[Kaka and you hit it off instantly; your relationship is excellent.]

[With the support of Kaka, Maldini, and others, the rest of the locker room dares to be angry but doesn't dare to speak, forced to accept you as the most powerful connection-hire in Milan.]

[Kaka's knee injury shows no improvement under Meersseman's treatment. You suddenly remember Gianni Nanni, whom you had driven away. After Nanni's treatment, Kaka's knee improves slightly, but unfortunately, due to the delay caused by Meersseman, he cannot return to his peak.]

[Even so, Kaka is very grateful to you.]

[Kaka rejects invitations from Manchester City and Real Madrid, staying at Milan with you, which makes the fans very happy.]

[Because his injury was delayed, Kaka gradually turns into a "bench-warmer." You and he are known as the two watchers of the Milan stands. You teach Kaka your experience in watching games from the stands. The two high-paid players never play, leading to protests from fans. Milan president Barbara remains unmoved; to ensure you don't feel lonely, she gifts your good friend Kaka another contract.]

[Barbara states that Kaka is a club legend and that Milan is more than just a club. This statement boosts Milan's prestige in the hearts of players worldwide. Every player hopes to be taken care of in their old age, and Milan is clearly a good place for retirement.]

[The team is short of two usable players year-round. The fans are beyond tears; they even hang banners in the stands reading "Kaiwen and His Friends Team" to mock the situation.]

[Provoked, Barbara announces that you and Kaka have both renewed for 5 years. Although Kaka's salary is only a fraction of yours, it remains the highest in the team after yours. Kaka's eldest son is born; to thank you for your unwavering support, the little one, who should have been named Luca, is named Kaiwen.]

[After marriage, Kaka gradually reveals the true nature of a Brazilian player. Off the pitch, you two often hang out together. Kaka introduces you to several Brazilian supermodels, and you sigh that Kaka is truly a good brother.]

[Kaka gets divorced. Later, he remarries, and you are the best man at his wedding.]

[Kaka plays at Milan until he is 38. Because you choose to retire, Kaka also chooses to retire. After returning to Brazil, Kaka feels lost. He has grown accustomed to your presence and decides to move back to Milan to live, and begins learning Chinese culture.]

[Your children are good friends. Regrettably, Kaka's son is more talented than yours. Your son is always in the stands cheering for his best friend, known as the Milan cheerleader captain.]

[Kaka lives to be 85. On his deathbed, Kaka holds your hand, gazing at you affectionately, and speaks his last words in Chinese: "One life, two brothers; in the next life, we'll sit in the stands together again."]

The amount of information in this fate display was too much; Huang Kaiwen couldn't react for a moment.

He didn't expect Kaka to be a playboy too, though that was normal.

He remembered that after Kaka's divorce, he had dated several Brazilian models.

So, Kaka's private life was just divided into "before marriage" and "after marriage."

He maintained purity before marriage; having not opened that door, he naturally wouldn't think about it.

But after marriage, Kaka found a new world.

Huang Kaiwen vaguely remembered that at the time of Kaka's divorce, there were many rumors about him cheating.

It seemed that once Kaka got a taste of the world, he was no different from other Brazilian players. No wonder he could hang out with him, Huang.

Huang Kaiwen understood Kaka very well. For a star as handsome as him and Kaka, how much temptation must they face? Sometimes, it was just beyond their control.

After sighing, Huang Kaiwen remembered the mission.

He had changed Kaka's fate, but not completely, because the mission wasn't finished.

In other words, that eyesore of a team doctor, Gianni Nanni, was the key to Kaka's injury. Because of his treatment, Kaka's situation was better than in his previous life, but because he didn't receive Nanni's treatment immediately, Kaka couldn't return to his peak.

Nanni had instead become the key to the mission.

If he kept Nanni, it wouldn't be easy for him, Huang, to fake an injury.

If he didn't keep Nanni, Kaka would definitely receive Meersseman's treatment the moment he got injured. Once the veterinarian took action, the "Emperor Star" Kaka, who made Messi and Ronaldo watch from the sidelines, would immediately fall.

Huang Kaiwen felt a massive headache.

This was forcing him to choose between his brother and himself.

Huang Kaiwen couldn't help but hum the song Caught in the Middle.

"On one side is friendship, on the other is love; neither side works, making it hard for myself..."
