Chapter 1675: Covering ones ears and stealing the bell
Chapter 1675: Covering one’s ears and stealing the bell
...It's ridiculous and funny.
In fact, Pulan really "wanted" to be angry, to the point of getting angry from embarrassment; but before the anger could come out, the corners of his mouth were already raised.
After calming down and looking at the second photo again, Pulan became more and more aware of his stupidity——
Judging from the angle and position, Gawain should have been standing diagonally behind her just now. Her every move could be seen clearly, but she was still struggling.
Like ants squirming in the palm of a giant.
What a picture!
Curling up in the aisle in front of the seat, I covered my cheeks and laughed muffledly, my shoulders shaking slightly uncontrollably. The more I thought about it, the funnier it became.
A kind and gentle voice came to my ear, "Miss, are you okay?"
Pu Lan quickly raised her head and saw the lady sitting next to her with a concerned face. She took out a handkerchief and handed it over. Only then did she realize that she looked like she was crying. People who didn't know better thought that she was crying.
She just received a breakup notice from her boyfriend.
Who would have thought that it was actually a prank?
Pulan waved his hands repeatedly, "It's okay, I, I'm okay, everything is fine."
Pulan took a deep breath and finally came to his senses. He took a deep breath, seemed to have made a decision, and then "climbed" back to his seat and remained seated.
From the corner of my vision, I could still feel the worry of the lady next to me. She seemed to be in her sixties, with silver hair and warm eyes. Her gentle gaze seemed to concern her granddaughter, but she did not ask rashly, but
Keep your distance politely and smile back.
Think about it.
Pu Lan also showed a smile and lowered his voice, "Just now, my friend played a prank."
Then, Pulan showed the two pictures to the lady, and explained what "hiding one's ears and stealing one's bell" was all about.
The lady was stunned for a moment, and the smile gradually crept up to the corners of her eyes, "So, were you smiling just now?"
Pu Lan was a little embarrassed, but nodded anyway.
The lady's eyes curved into two crescent moons, "It's great to be young."
Although the lady didn't say much until she ordered, Pu Lan was able to read the profound meaning from the simple words, and his cheeks couldn't help but feel slightly hot.
Fortunately, the lady did not take any further action, and then turned to look at the court, which alleviated Pulan's shyness.
The game continues.
Federer and Simon have returned to the court, the brief commotion at the scene has calmed down, and all attention is focused on the court.
After all, Gawain is not the protagonist, the game is.
However, Pulan was a little distracted and couldn't help but look back frequently, trying to find Gawain——
Obviously, this was not her plan.
In fact, Pulan has also thought about how she should react if she is discovered by Gawain; or in other words, if she is going to show up, how should she appear; otherwise, she may be discovered, but the specifics are
What is the situation and how should we deal with it?
All kinds, all kinds...
but!
It's not easy.
Even the plan to come to Wimbledon to watch the game was sudden. After the Roland Garros semi-finals, she had a sudden idea and made an impromptu decision. In just a few weeks, everything started in full swing; as for the
Pu Lan did not figure out the reason for what happened next.
Then... there is no more...
Suddenly, he was discovered.
Pulan regretted a little, he would not have come to watch this game if he had known it earlier.
Originally, Plan was thinking of coming to watch this game to see what kind of style Federer's grass game is and whether it would be different to watch the game live. Moreover, no matter who Gao Wen's opponent is in the next game, it will definitely be the same.
It's a tough battle, and today can be regarded as a kind of mental preparation in advance.
result!
So, what to do now?
Pullan looked back frequently, but she was still unable to find Gawain. Just when her mind was filled with questions, the news came again.
"surprise!"
Pulan, with his head full of black lines, said, "You shouldn't steal my lines."
"Haha, I can feel your resentment just from the words. Why, you are planning a special surprise appearance? How about I pretend not to notice?"
"...That's not true. However, it's still a bit nihilistic to be discovered like this. I still wanted to give you a surprise."
"This is already a surprise. Thank you for coming to watch my game."
Words have no warmth, they are plain and simple.
But Pulan could feel the warmth in Gawain's words. The faint joy and happiness filled the air quietly, and her mood couldn't help but soar.
Although she has never regretted coming to Wimbledon to watch the game, now, she can feel that her bond with Gawain is even closer.
"Congratulations. I completed a wonderful game today. I'm glad that I was able to witness it at the scene."
"You just said it."
"Just now, you thought I was watching the live broadcast in front of the TV; now is now, and I want to tell you that I enjoyed every minute and every second of the game."
"Including moments in the fourth set?"
"Well……"
"Hahaha."
"Give me a little more time. I'm still not used to watching games live. The atmosphere and feeling. Even if there is no sound, I feel like my heart is about to explode. Now I finally understand why those coaches have heart disease.
The oppressive feeling of watching the game up close is simply indescribable.”
"Imagine standing on the court with me and fighting side by side. It should feel better and there will be no time to be nervous."
"Gawain, you didn't help at all, okay?"
"Hahaha!"
Through the phone screen, Pulan could feel Gawain's smiling face, and then the message came again.
"So, do you need me to save a place for you in the players' box for the next game?
With such an ordinary sentence, Pulan's heart suddenly contracted and he couldn't breathe——
boom!
Boom boom boom!
There were cheers and shouts on Court No. 1. There seemed to be a wonderful round on the court, but Pullan's attention was not on the court at all.
If you appear in the players' box, it not only means watching the game with Gao Wen's parents, coaches, and team, but also experiencing the excitement of a Grand Slam semifinal together.
And, more importantly, it also means that she will be completely exposed under the spotlight, and her life may also undergo earth-shaking changes; at the same time, reporters may also pay attention to Gao Wen's off-court life, those gossipy news
The space robs the focus of Gawain's career.
Until this time, Pulan once again realized that he liked Gawain so much.
She likes to see Gawain standing on the court and fighting hard. She likes to see Gawain devoting himself wholeheartedly to the things he likes and sweating. She likes to see Gawain constantly challenging himself to challenge his limits. Moreover, she also believes that
, that is Gawain’s truest appearance.
At least, it shouldn't be now.
Wimbledon is still going on, and Pullan doesn't want Gawain to be distracted, nor does he want any off-court footage to take away Gawain's shine, nor does he want the media and paparazzi to come out and get in the way.
Maybe, they should wait.
The fingertips were slightly slippery, and the thoughts surging in his mind were changing rapidly, but in the end, Pulan took a deep breath and regained his determination.
