Chapter 135 - Chapter 134 A special birthday celebration known to everyone!

Right after Fly finished dealing with Park Ji-sung, he glanced at the time on the stadium's electronic screen and suddenly stopped.

"Fly, what's wrong?" Wilshere noticed Fly had suddenly stopped and turned back, puzzled.

"Quiet, look at the sky," Fly looked up at the sky, counting down in his heart.

Wilshere subconsciously looked up at the sky and muttered, "What's so good about the sky in this terrible weather?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful picture of fireworks instantly appeared before his eyes.

"Oh, my god, what the hell is this? You didn't do this, did you?"

Wilshere exclaimed in surprise while looking at the sky above Old Trafford.

He saw the words "Taylor Swift" formed by colorful fireworks floating in the sky.

Following that, the number "21" appeared next to these two words, along with "Happy Birthday."

And as the fireworks were about to dissipate, a light screen projected onto the sky from who knows where showed a photo of Taylor.

In the photo, Taylor was holding a banjo, wearing a silver dress with scattered rhinestones, and singing with her head down.

Next to this photo, a string of subtitles appeared: "I love you, Taylor Swift."

The signature below was Fly Adams.

This scene directly stunned the Manchester United fans at Old Trafford who hadn't had time to leave yet.

To be honest, many of these fans didn't even know who Taylor Swift was beforehand.

After all, Taylor hadn't grown to the point of being globally known as she would be in the future.

It wasn't strange not to know her outside of the United States.

If they didn't even know who Taylor was, they naturally wouldn't know her birthday.

Even though Fly had publicly lifted his shirt and showed his love in front of the camera, and sent birthday wishes to Taylor.

But not all fans saw it; after all, Old Trafford is so big, and from the perspective of the fans in the upper stands, the players on the field were about the size of ants.

It was perfectly normal not to see Fly's celebration clearly.

But the appearance of this scene directly let all Manchester United fans know that today was Taylor's 21st birthday.

Although they were unhappy with Fly being so brazen in their home stadium, they were a young couple, and many older fans didn't boo the guy who had just scored a hat-trick at Old Trafford.

The live broadcast camera immediately focused on Taylor; the birthday girl was covering her mouth, and the faint tears in her eyes showed that she was not calm at the moment.

In the broadcast studio far away in the East, james and Larry were originally preparing to give their closing remarks, but after seeing this scene, they immediately started joking:

"Oh wow, look at the surprise Fly prepared for his girlfriend, it's truly unexpected!"

"Setting off fireworks at Manchester United's home ground is simply a genius idea."

"I guess Manchester United fans are now feeling both upset and touched, after all, a player who just scored a hat-trick at their home ground is so openly setting off fireworks to celebrate his girlfriend's birthday. It's truly a mix of ice and fire!"

Larry chuckled, suddenly feeling that Fly was completely to his liking.

"Honestly, this kind of behavior might be seen as a huge provocation by the home fans, and most people wouldn't dare to do it, but Fly did it anyway. He's truly authentic."

"Whether it's from his interviews a while ago or his current behavior of openly celebrating his girlfriend's birthday in front of the away fans."

"I have to say, Fly never hides his true thoughts; he does whatever he thinks of. Such a carefree life is truly enviable."

Fly's action was seen by audiences in countries broadcasting the match around the world.

It can be said that from today onwards, at least several million, or even tens of millions, more people know Taylor's birthday.

In fact, this fireworks display witnessed by the entire world directly boosted the sales of Taylor's new album.

The Scottish Old Man, whose face was already extremely unpleasant due to losing the match, saw the pattern in the sky above the stadium and returned directly to the locker room with a livid face.

It was clear that a 'hairdryer' session for the Manchester United players was inevitable...

In the post-match interview, Fly simply said a few words: "Sorry, I need to go home quickly today, I don't have much time, at most five questions, ask quickly, thank you."

The very large female reporter conducting the interview heard this and looked angry, clearly feeling that Fly was being too disrespectful by giving such a beautiful woman like herself so little face.

However, she was helpless. After swallowing her anger, she simply asked three questions:

"Fly, you won this match, and now you are 18 points ahead of Manchester United in the standings. Does this mean that the Premier League title this season is no longer in suspense?"

This was the familiar way reporters dig pits and provoke conflict, but Fly wasn't afraid and said, "If I say there's still suspense, you might think I'm being hypocritical."

"In reality, being 18 points ahead after seventeen rounds of the Premier League means we basically have one hand on the Premier League trophy."

"I don't want to lie to you; at least in my heart, Arsenal already has one title in hand this season."

"Of course, although the leading advantage is very obvious, we will still not let our guard down. We will take every subsequent match seriously and strive to bring the Premier League title home a few rounds in advance."

After getting the answer she wanted, the very large female reporter said, "How do you view your opponent Manchester United in this match?"

Regarding this question, Fly was not polite at all and said frankly, "The current Manchester United has a significant gap in strength compared to us."

"In this match at Old Trafford, even with external interference, Manchester United still lost to us by three goals, which shows that the current Manchester United is not on the same level as Arsenal."

Upon hearing this, the female reporter seemed to have caught a huge hot topic, her eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "Three goals? Didn't Arsenal defeat Manchester United by a score of 4:2 in this match?"

Fly shrugged and mocked sarcastically:

"No, Manchester United only scored one goal. The second goal was clearly offside, but unfortunately, Main Referee Mr. Atkinson and the linesman didn't see it. I suggest they consider getting contact lenses if they are nearsighted so it doesn't hinder their normal work."

Hearing Fly's remarks, which were practically blasting the referees, the female reporter's tone became even more excited, and she continued to ask:

"Fly, are you saying that the refereeing in this match had problems? Do you think the Main Referee was deliberately biased towards Manchester United?"

"Who knows? This shouldn't be said by me, but evaluated by the vast number of fans." Fly knew that some things couldn't be said publicly in front of the media, otherwise, he would only face more targeting in the future.

Although he wasn't afraid, as the saying goes, it's better to have one less problem than one more. Some things can be resolved privately; there's no need to bring them out into the open.

The female reporter cursed Fly under her breath for being a tease, but when she saw Fly raise one finger, she knew it wasn't the time to continue pressing and quickly asked the last question, which was also the one she most wanted to ask:

"Fly, today is Taylor's birthday, right? We all saw the fireworks display you prepared for Taylor after the match, oh, and even the drone projection. Were these pre-planned birthday surprises for Taylor?"

Hearing this, Fly's expression instantly softened considerably, and he said lightly:

"This is the first birthday I've celebrated for Taylor since I officially started my professional career. I wanted everyone in the world to witness our love, so I did this."

"Maybe some people will think that doing this at Old Trafford violates sportsmanship and is an insult to the home fans."

"But I want to say here that I didn't mean that. I never need to humiliate opponents through such off-field means; I only respond on the field."

"If today's actions have caused harm to some fans, I apologize here. I didn't intend to do so."

The very large female reporter seemed to want to continue asking questions, but Fly had already turned around and left. He didn't want to get entangled here for too long, otherwise, some unscrupulous media would fabricate stories about him flirting with the reporter.

Taylor was already quite sensitive to such baseless news, and he didn't want to create trouble for himself.

In the post-match press conference.

Sir Alex Ferguson's face was very grim when facing the reporters' interviews, and he said in an unpleasant tone, "I don't want to comment too much on this match. We lost, it's that simple."

"We lost not because the opponent was strong, but because we didn't play well ourselves."

When asked how he viewed Wenger being shown a red card, Sir Alex Ferguson said angrily, "That was his own doing. If I were the Main Referee, I would have sent him off too."

"The Main Referee in this match clearly officiated fairly, but Arsène was just being unreasonable, thinking the referee wasn't biased towards them."

"It's clear that Arsenal has received too many favorable calls from referees in the past, and not getting one this time caused Arsène to be psychologically unbalanced. I think he should adapt to this level of officiating; Arsenal cannot always be the beneficiary."

When asked about Fly's performance, Sir Alex Ferguson's face became even uglier. It was difficult for the Scottish Old Man to calmly evaluate this child who had scored three goals against them at Old Trafford.

However, for the sake of his image, Sir Alex Ferguson didn't say anything too harsh, just commented briefly:

"This child is outstanding. I think he is even better than people think. It's a great pity that he plays for that guy Arsène, that's a huge regret."

"Playing for Arsène, it's difficult for him to win much. You know, Arsène hasn't even won a single Champions League to this day."

"I think it would be too regrettable if a player of Fly's caliber couldn't win a Champions League in his career."

"It's a shame his identity is too special, otherwise I would really want to recruit him to play for Manchester United. I am confident I can help him win everything, just like Cristiano."
