Seeing that Wen Hao was sad, You Le also cried. Ye Shuwen couldn't see the two men being so tired and crooked, so he told Wen Hao that his results today are enough to participate in the Dubai Short Course World Championships next month.

This is good news.

Thinking that there is still a chance, Wen Hao nodded and smiled again.

After changing clothes and returning to the stands, everyone's attitude was very subtle.The people in the team compete for No.1. It’s not good to say anything if you lose or win. If you have a good relationship, you have already talked about it in private like you and them. Wen Hao's embarrassment.

The saddest time has passed. Although it is inevitable to face the silver medal, it can only be like this. The competition is so cruel. If you can do it, you can do it. If you can’t, you can’t. Only by yourself.

Not really... Wen Hao went to look at Ye Shuwen secretly. The man was lowering his head and writing something in his notebook. His side face was deep and introverted, and his long eyelashes could be seen trembling. The man's mellow voice - I will accompany you to win the gold medal.

Gong Cheng frowned and walked over from a distance, looked at Wen Hao's side face thoughtfully, and followed his line of sight to see the new coach.

The mood is not very good, Wen Hao's failure is like his own failure, the feeling of uselessness is so strong that he can't help but want to do something...

Liu Lang is also under a lot of pressure. Ever since You Le and Yuan Zheng came to the national team, his title of "No. [-] brother" has only existed in name only. Now he can still speak because he is the big brother in the team, and everyone still respects him. .

Although the word "big brother" and "old" have a bit of seniority, it is really poignant. In the circle of sports, those who are ahead of others can only be eliminated if they are surpassed. It is so straightforward. , is so cruel.

At his age, after the London Olympics, he can almost retire. Of course, he still wants to swim well before retiring. Not to mention anything else, at least he must be worthy of the hardships he has suffered in these years.In desperation, he switched from short-distance freestyle to long-distance swimming, and he bumped into Wen Hao.

It was very hard to win the gold medal in the Asian Games, Wen Hao clenched his teeth tightly, and he won the championship with a difference of one second.Standing on the podium, the gold medal on the neck is heavy, and I always feel that I can't straighten my waist.

Although Wen Hao stood a little short, he was a student of Peking University, and even if he graduated next year and retired, he would still be a student of a prestigious university.What about yourself?I studied at Beijing Sport University, and I have been concentrating on swimming for the past few years. I am still a sophomore, especially because my cultural foundation is not good.

That's it, how do you graduate?

Where is my way out?

The day before leaving Guangzhou, the team gave the team members a holiday. Liu Lang was a little confused about the future, so naturally he lacked energy. He slept in bed all day long, but unfortunately, before 9 o'clock, someone knocked on the door. woke up.

The teammates in the same room went home overnight last night. It is not necessary to attend the closing ceremony. After that, the team also gave three days off, and the total can be five days. Those who live not far away or are willing to pay for the air ticket are fine. Go home for a few days.

Liu Lang opened the door in a daze, but he didn't expect Gong Cheng to be standing outside the door.

Gong Cheng was neatly dressed, with a faint smile on his handsome brows and eyes. The sun was supported by his shoulders, and his whole body was surrounded by a circle of fluffy golden light. When he saw it suddenly, he still had a sacred aura.

He said: "There is something I want to talk to you about, let's have morning tea together."

At 09:30, they sat in a private room in a nearby restaurant. Shrimp dumplings, crystal buns, barbecued pork buns, beef sausage rolls, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, chicken feet in black bean sauce, and crab roe siu mai were placed on the table. A table is full.

Liu Lang and Gong Cheng were sitting next to each other, their heads were still foggy, and they didn't dare to reach out even though they were hungry. He turned his head to look at the person who also didn't plan to move his chopsticks, and asked, "What's the matter? Can't we cooked."

"It's ready after eating."

"..." Liu Lang knew that he was mocking him for saying that he was unfamiliar, but he still agreed to go out for dinner together, his face was very uncomfortable, and his tone hardened when he spoke again, "That's right, I didn't wake up , dizzy. Tell me, what's the matter, don't beat around the bush. "

"eat first."

Gong Cheng picked up the chopsticks, picked up a crab roe siu mai and put it in his mouth. He ate it very politely, took a bite, tasted the taste, and put the rest on the nearby plate, which seemed unappetizing.

Seeing the toothache, Liu Lang picked up the shrimp dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it.

Most of those who engage in sports are foodies, not many people are as particular as Gong Cheng, and Liu Lang has a gust of wind, but within 10 minutes, he ate all the things on the table.Finally, he picked up a barbecued pork bun, looked sideways at Gong Cheng and smiled: "Is it because of Wen Hao? Is there anything you can do for me?"

Seeing Gong Cheng, the only thing he could think of was Wen Hao.Gong Cheng's identity and background are mysterious. Although he is an athlete, he is almost outside the circle of athletes. It is difficult to see him except in the training center.Therefore, Gong Cheng, who always appeared beside Wen Hao, was easily reminiscent of their relationship.

"Well, it's something." Gong Cheng nodded, "Liu Lang, do you have any considerations for the future? Should you stay in the team as a coach, or continue to study? The way out for athletes after retirement is a difficult problem, and the bureau can really arrange it The estimates on the Internet are not even half, and usually they are not in line with expectations, the contribution is seriously higher than expected, and there are many people who can’t do it and resign, but in the end, there are only a few who can really make a name for themselves.”

He casually picked up the round celadon teapot on the table, served Liu Langman a cup of tea, raised his eyes and asked, "What about you? At your age, you're almost thinking about it, right?"

Liu Lang looked at Gong Cheng suspiciously, and asked, "What are you talking about? Is there anything else you can do to help me?"

"Why not?" Gong Cheng had a faint smile on his face, and his gestures were elegant and dignified, just like he just won the gold medal in foil. As long as he is willing, his noble demeanor is enough to make people look up to him, "I'm looking for you today, Isn't that what we're talking about?"

Liu Lang drank the tea that Gong Cheng had poured down, and looked at people with a half-smile: "We don't know each other well, and we don't even have a conversation. Why do you suddenly want to do something for me?"

"There are always some reasons. In short, if you want to find an iron rice bowl and have no worries about food and drink for the rest of your life, I think it's better for you to focus on your studies. At least graduate from college. I'll wait for you for two years. You will graduate within two years, and I promise to arrange civil servants from all over the country for you." After speaking, Gong Cheng paused, looked at him deeply, and said, "By the way, I forgot to introduce, Gong Guohua is my grandfather."

Liu Lang almost spit out the tea he drank.

Gong Guohua, even if he doesn't watch the news anymore, and occasionally takes a look at it, when the national leadership holds a meeting, sits in the front row, and the name that must be specially introduced is Gong Guohua.

Gong Cheng's background is really a bit bigger.

Realizing the gap, Liu Lang's movements became stiff, his eyes wandered, and he was a little at a loss.

Gong Cheng said: "As I said, the hole you made is that as long as you graduate in two years, I will help you arrange work in the future."

"This... this, this..." Liu Lang flicked his tongue and stuttered, his head was in a mess, and he said in a low voice, "Why..."

Yes!

Why! ?

Asking a word, also asking Liu Lang sober.He has self-knowledge, and he is not an amazing talent, not to mention that he is not familiar with Gong Cheng at all. Even if this matter is easy for him, there is no chance that the pie will fall on him.

It's unrealistic to think about it.

Gong Cheng didn't explain, he nodded: "That's what I'm looking for today, I still have something to do, so I'll go first, think about it first, don't rush to give me an answer, just come to me within two years , it all counts."

Liu Lang watched Gong Cheng get up and leave. On the table he sat on, there was only a bite of Shaomai, but he drank a few cups of tea.

The tea in the room was very fragrant, even if Liu Lang didn't know how to taste tea, he knew that this pot of tea must be of great value.

Life is precious!

Liu Lang ate the last barbecued pork bun and left. Sure enough, the bill was settled.

The place where I drink morning tea is not far from the sports village, and it takes only 10 minutes to walk back to the dormitory.

Liu Lang walked around the house and went out again.

Wen Hao also went out for morning tea this morning. The guests invited by Ye Shuwen included him, You Mingjie, You Le, and Yuan Zheng for dinner. There were five big food buckets, and they ate more than 400 yuan for dim sum alone. The seal almost couldn't fit, and the cashier rubbed his eyes twice when paying the bill.

In short, it was a happy meal.

The disappointment of not winning the championship gradually dissipated under the smiling faces of the coach and his seniors. The feeling of being cared about and cared for made him firmly believe that there will be a next time if it doesn’t work this time. As long as he doesn’t give up, he will get what he wants sooner or later.

When Liu Lang knocked on the door and came in, Wen Hao had not been back for a long time. He had made an appointment to go shopping together in Guangzhou today, but watching You Le and Yuan Zheng's appearance of mixing oil in honey, he gave up his plan to be a light bulb and went back to the house rest.

Seeing someone, Liu Lang said bluntly, "Gong Cheng came to me suddenly in the morning and invited me to have morning tea. Do you know what's going on?"

Wen Hao restrained his sloppy attitude and shook his head.No matter when and where, as long as the word "Gong Cheng" appears, his nerves will be forced to tense.

"He suddenly said that he would arrange a job for me. What do you think of this matter?" Liu Lang looked straight at Wen Hao, wondering if he recalled it again, and he became more and more convinced that this matter had a lot to do with Wen Hao .

"Tell me carefully." Wen Hao's face darkened.

"..."

When Wen Hao made the call, he knew in his heart that Gong Cheng was waiting for his call. However, he had to make this call. For the sake of health, this phone number should also be broadcast.

He said: "I think people, no matter how messy their life is, they should have a bottom line. This is the most basic principle of being a human being. Otherwise, what is the difference with a pile of garbage? I always thought that as an athlete, you should have a bottom line. This is the most basic sportsmanship, you must care about winning or losing, but you can't pay too much attention to winning or losing. At least, before today, I thought it was your strength that you won the championship, but now I doubt whether you put all your opponents I have bribed once, and if I can't be bribed, I will threaten, if I really can't threaten, are you going to do it?"

"Hehehe..." Gong Cheng's low-pitched laughter came from the microphone, and the sound confirmed that he was really proud, "What do you mean by what you said? Do you mean that I violated the spirit of sports? Whether it is bribery or threats, If you find evidence, you can report on me, don't deliberately call to remind me, I will misunderstand. "

Wen Hao took a deep breath: "Okay, let me be straight, what do you mean by introducing a job to Liu Lang? Isn't it because I lost to him in the competition? So first use..."

"Look, you are so awkward, and you can get around yourself with such a roundabout thing. If I say I didn't do it for you, will you be disappointed? If I nod, will you be happy? Wen Hao , we have been together for so many years, you know me best, I can't hide anything from you, you put all your attention on me, and you still say you don't care about me?"

"..." Wen Hao was speechless, and was stunned by Gong Cheng's self-righteousness. Anyone could guess such an obvious thing. He questioned it because he was very angry. Everything was distorted to the point of being dumbfounded.

Gong Cheng couldn't wait for a response from the other side of the phone for a long time. He glanced at Shi Yang and the others, and said, "You are really useless. You are only one second away, and you can't win the gold medal. Are you sad? Do you think there is no?" Liu Lang is fine, the gold medal is yours? What you think in your heart, what you say, why bother to live so tiring? Besides, I just arranged a new path for Liu Lang, whether to go or not to go, It's all his own business, you can't misinterpret my kindness, I..."

The phone was hung up.

Gong Cheng took down the phone with a cold face, and slid his fingers across the screen, hesitating whether he should call Wen Hao again.

"This matter...is not very beautiful." Shi Yang ate delicate and delicious snacks, and smiled at Gong Cheng, "I'm impulsive, you should talk to us first, it's not like you."

Gong Cheng looked at him without saying a word, his expression was not very good-looking.

Shi Yang smiled "hehe", slowly licked the soup on his fingers, his slightly curly hair shook gently, and looked at Gong Cheng meaningfully.

There are a total of four people here, and the only one who can confront Gong Cheng head-on is Shi Yang.

The friendship that grew up together made Shi Yang the only one who could provoke Gong Cheng.

Hmm... that's not right, there is one more Wen Hao now.

Wang Zihong also felt that what Gong Cheng did was not pretty, even a little ugly.

In a family like theirs, the various power tactics that they have been exposed to since childhood are far beyond the imagination of children from ordinary families.Gong Cheng is especially good at exchanging the power in his hands for the benefits he needs. Money is a trivial matter, and what he hunts is usually people's hearts.But those are all methods that are used only when standing in front of equal status, or in front of necessary special talents.As for lovers, in their identities, they don't need to deliberately please, or even play some tricks.

However, Gong Cheng did what he did to Wen Hao, and he spent all his time and effort, but he didn't please him. If Zhao Wu and his group knew about this, they would definitely be laughing at him for ten years.

In particular, such a thing is generally impossible for Qing'er.

Wang Zihong changed his posture, with a half-smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't look at Gong Cheng.

He can't afford to offend Gong Cheng, and the relationship is not that good. It's actually very interesting to watch this arrogant man bump his head against the wall of love, his head bleeding.
