Match Point

Chapter 382: Keep a low profile

Tim, who also advanced to the fourth round at the US Open for the first time, did not attract too much discussion and attention because Gao Wen was too brilliant.

But Tim didn't care about it at all, he was still diligent and conscientious in preparing for each of his games, and often went in and out with Gao Wen in the gym—

As the game progressed, the number of players staying in the locker room gradually decreased, and players like them who went hand in hand gradually became closer. The opportunities to meet and get along outside the game gradually increased, and naturally they became more and more familiar.

Today is the match day for the upper half, and tomorrow is the lower half, so Gawain has a game today, and Tim's next round is scheduled for tomorrow, against Thomas Berdych.

Although the best record of Berdych's career in the Grand Slam is a Wimbledon runner-up, there is still no way to face the top ten players in the world; but facing the lower players in the world, Berdych The quality of the game is very solid, and the winning rate is maintained well.

Moreover, Berdych is the sixth seed in this tournament.

Tim needs to give it his all.

Gao Wen is giving Tim confidence, and now it is not only Gao Wen, other players are also cheering for Tim, applause one after another.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

The player cafeteria was noisy again, and it was even louder than before.

Bouchard couldn't believe her eyes. Although she didn't notice Gawain's every move and naturally didn't know how Gawain did it, she believed that she had become a laughing stock, and the culprit was Gawain.

Suddenly, Bouchard stood up, turned to face Gawain and Tim, and sternly accused him.

"You just accused Kyrgios of being inappropriate for joking, but now look at yourself, casually joking about the order and rules of public places, what's the difference between you and him?"

"In my opinion, Kyrgios is at least a little bit entertaining, but you are nothing more than a grandstanding buffoon, who are you to condemn anyone else?"

The air was slightly stagnant.

Tim was taken aback.

Kyrgios interfered with the game, which was an attempt to disrupt the process of the game by using sideways methods. How could it be possible to use a "joke" to take it all away?

Gao Wen booed his friends and sang a song in the players' cafeteria, but he was accused of disturbing the order of the public place. Are you sure it's not a big deal?

Tim couldn't figure out how these two things could be compared and conflated?

Of course, strictly speaking, loud noises are prohibited in public places. This is a fact. Bouchard’s condemnation is correct, but did Bouchard really not take a chicken feather as an arrow? How could she compare Kyrgios' behavior with Gawain's? The nature and definition of the two things are completely different, okay?

Just kidding, it also depends on the situation.

Tim was a little angry, "This lady..."

But Gawain's reaction was still faster, he stood up before Tim could respond any further, and once again bowed slightly in the direction of Bouchard and the entire restaurant in a polite manner, formally expressing his apology.

"Sorry to disturb everyone's meal time."

There was no justification or argument, and the simple and neat apology seemed absurd because it was too formal. After all, everyone enjoyed it very much just now, and they didn't feel that it was too noisy to affect the meal. Instead, they had a pleasant experience because of the small episode. good mood.

This is like a self-study class in high school. The monitor maintains discipline and requires everyone to keep quiet and concentrate on self-study. The students all know that the monitor's words are correct, but no one likes them.

"It's okay, Gao Wen." Yankovic was the first to wave his hand at Gao Wen, and said bluntly, "I don't feel disturbed, on the contrary, I like it very much, let's sing karaoke together another day. "After speaking, she laughed heartily, and the free and easy appearance of the laughing aunt was not concealed.

"it's okay no problem."

"Dominic, come on!"

"The singing is good."

Chattering, the players were joking and joking one after another. The tense atmosphere didn't last long, and it became joyful again in a blink of an eye.

Bouchard couldn't believe his eyes, looked around, and found that he was alone and helpless, without the support of his comrades in arms at all. He clearly wanted justice but fell into a thankless situation. Instead, he became a spoiler of the party atmosphere, and in the end he just stared furiously. Gawain glanced at him.

Gao Wen didn't evade, but met Bouchard's gaze head-on, and said with a smile, "Next time, I will try my best to be a clown that pleases everyone. Sorry, the entertainment effect today did not meet expectations."

Can't Gao Wen take a joke?

Obviously not.

On the contrary, Gao Wen is a very entertaining person, "the training is crazy, the party is even crazier", just ask the Bruins players.

Facing Bouchard's accusation, Gao Wen humbly accepted it. After all, it was a fact that he disturbed the order of the players' cafeteria, but there was no need to be too serious, ruining the fun of life.

Chi Chi.

Gawain's relaxed and humorous words made the other people beside him laugh again, but in the eyes of Bouchard, it was a glib sophistry.

"It's not funny at all."

Bouchard glared at Gawain again, then he didn't say anything more, and didn't give Gawain a chance to continue speaking, he turned around and sat back.

The player cafeteria has finally returned to normal, but it's not completely normal—

Gao Wen could clearly feel the friendly and cordial gazes of many players around him, and he nodded with a smile on his face. Such an episode brought the distance closer.

Tim looked at Gawain who was sitting down, his expression was still a bit worried, "Sorry, Gawain, you should be all right?"

"The only thing I need to worry about is that my innate singing voice will be exposed after all~lightnovelpub.net~ Well, I can't even keep a low profile." Gao Wen said nonsense seriously.

Tim looked at the nonchalant and relaxed Gao Wen in front of him, feeling helpless and funny, he couldn't hold it back after all, and laughed, but worried that he would cause another conflict, so he had to lower his voice and chuckle sullenly .

Tobias, who was sitting at the breakfast table and witnessed the scene up close, had a smile in his eyes and mouth.

He never expected that Tim and Gao Wen could really become friends, because Tim in private is indeed a bit shy and slow, and it is usually easy to see him getting close to other players. It should take some time to get used to and get familiar with. , or the personality is relatively introverted.

He also didn't expect that a small accident would happen in the players' cafeteria, and Gao Wen's handling was simple and straightforward, and he once again showed his maturity and stability, and he got along well with other players. Under such circumstances, defuse the sharpness skillfully.

These details are the most important.
