Chapter 435 I Know You
It's normal to face strong opponents in a competition. Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei won by a narrow margin, 0 points higher than the second place. They were both happy but also a little nervous. However, coach Pei Yunxia thought this was a good situation.
The game should not be too tense but not too relaxed either.
The second round of the competition soon arrived. This time, Pei Yunxia asked the two to maintain the previous difficulty level in order to maintain their strength. In five rounds of competition, it was nothing to be surpassed by the opponent in one or two rounds.
Sure enough, the opponent increased the difficulty in the second round and surpassed Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei by one point. In the third round, Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei followed Pei Yunxia's advice and also increased the difficulty, and their scores once again caught up.
In the fourth round, the two players from the Japanese team, probably because their mentality was influenced by Gu Sanjing and others, chose the most difficult moves, but they made big mistakes in the process and finally scored very low.
The movements of Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei in this round were of medium difficulty but perfect with almost no flaws, so they scored very high.
By this point, the Japanese players had almost no chance of a comeback. They probably realized this, so they played fairly well in the fifth round. Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei increased the difficulty again, without making any mistakes, and ultimately won the championship.
The crowd cheered again. Gu Sanjing, wrapped in a towel, heard the announcement on the radio and grinned. Her competition in these Olympics was completely over, and she had gained a lot. Qin Hanfei was the same, winning two gold medals in these Olympics.
Looking at Gu Sanjing's bright smile, he also smiled. He is now the world champion, can he be worthy of her?
Yes, he liked Gu Sanjing. Who wouldn't like a beautiful, hardworking, and outstanding girl? He hadn't dared to express his love for her before, firstly because he was afraid of affecting their training, and secondly because he felt he wasn't worthy of her.
He had heard that her family was well-off, owning many supermarkets and being very wealthy, while his parents were ordinary workers, and he wanted to make up for this shortcoming through his own efforts.
Soon, they were going to the podium to receive their awards. As they walked up to the podium together, Qin Hanfei whispered to Gu Sanjing, "What are your plans next?"
The team has a rule that after finishing their competitions, they can wander around London.
"My family is here too, I'll go with them." Gu Sanjing thought that Gu Jianguo must have brought a lot of money, so she could eat whatever she wanted.
Qin Hanfei felt a little disappointed when he heard that she was going to stay with her family, but he didn't show it. He smiled and said, "That's good."
As they were talking, the two of them went up to the podium. When presenting the awards, Qin Hanfei's eyes involuntarily turned to Gu Sanjing. Pei Yunxia, who was standing below, couldn't help but frown when she saw this.
Qin Hanfei was a very promising athlete, and she didn't want his relationship issues to affect his training. An athlete's peak years were only a few years long. Furthermore, it was clear that Gu Sanjing didn't have that kind of interest in him. The Gu family members sitting in the audience also noticed Qin Hanfei's strange attitude towards Gu Sanjing. Gu Siqing whispered to Gu Yimin, "He's a little short and looks average."
"Don't say that in front of Sanjing, she doesn't mean that." Gu Yimin said.
She was afraid that San Jing hadn't meant it originally, but after hearing so much talk, she'd become interested. As a teenage girl, she was naive and yearning for love.
"I know," Gu Siqing wouldn't say. She just felt that Qin Hanfei was not worthy of their San Jing. Although he was a world champion, so was their San Jing!
Gu Jianguo snorted. The father-in-law was already very picky when choosing a son-in-law, let alone meeting a suitor that he was not satisfied with.
After receiving their awards, Gu Sanjing and Qin Hanfei walked off the stage and, as usual, posed for photos with the media. Pei Yunxia handled all the interviews. After the photoshoot, Gu Sanjing and Zuo Mingyan happily returned to the hotel. She'd heard there were several excellent restaurants near the Olympic Village.
Pei Yunxia knew that they were going out, so she asked an interpreter to follow them. Ye Chi did not follow them. The competition was over and they were near the Olympic Village, so he thought there would be no danger.
Gu Sanjing is an athlete, not a scientist or a politician, and the only dangers he faces are some small actions during the competition.
After a simple packing, Gu Sanjing, Zuo Mingyan and the translator left the hotel together. Qin Hanfei wanted to go with them, but since they were three girls going out, it would not be appropriate for him, a man, to follow them.
After leaving the Olympic Village, Gu Sanjing took Zuo Mingyan and the translator into a restaurant. The waiter brought the menu, and after the translator explained, she ordered a steak and a beautiful-looking cake.
The prices at this restaurant weren't cheap, but Gu Sanjing had plenty of pocket money, so she naturally didn't mind. Zuo Mingyan and the translator had finally made this trip, and they had no intention of letting themselves go to waste, so they didn't mind spending the money. At worst, they could just live frugally after returning home.
After ordering, the three of them chatted while looking out the window at the street scene. Suddenly, a commotion broke out inside the restaurant. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a waiter mumbling something with a contemptuous look on his face to an Asian man in his twenties, while the man explained to the waiter with a cold expression.
Gu Sanjing didn't understand what they were saying, so she asked the translator what was going on. The translator said, "It seems that the man's money was stolen, and the waiter asked him to pay the bill, but he didn't have any money."
Gu Sanjing thought this man was unlucky. She wondered where he was from, but he looked quite good. As she was thinking this, the man looked towards them, and their eyes met. Then he stood up and walked towards her.
When he got to her, he said in broken Mandarin, "Hello."
"Hello." Gu Sanjing replied subconsciously.
"I'm from Hong Kong. I lost my wallet. Can you lend me some money?"
Gu Sanjing was stunned for a moment after hearing his words, then took out her wallet and pulled out two British pounds, which should be enough for him to pay for the meal. Although they were strangers, they were both Chinese. If the other party was in trouble, it would not be a big deal for her to help him.
Xu Yusen took the two British pounds from Gu Sanjing and looked down at the thick stack of money in her wallet. He pursed his lips and was silent for a moment. Then he took off his watch and placed it in front of Gu Sanjing. He said, "I lost my passport and ID card, so I might need more money."
Gu Sanjing didn't expect that he wanted more. She looked at his watch. When she saw it, she said, "I can't afford your watch."
Gu Jianguo owns a watch of this brand, which is extremely expensive. The money in her wallet cannot even buy a second hand.
"I'll leave it with you first, and you can give it to me when I pay you back later." Xu Yusen said.
Gu Sanjing looked at the watch in silence for a while, then took out all the money in her wallet, leaving only one that was enough for her to pay for the meal. Then she pushed the watch towards Xu Yusen and said, "Take it back. We are all Chinese, and it's only natural for us to help each other."
Anyway, she would be seeing her family tomorrow, so she wouldn't have to spend any money then. This person must be in big trouble to have sold such a valuable watch. Although she had a lot of money in her wallet, it wasn't too much either. It was only natural to help a compatriot in need.
Gu Sanjing thought so, but Xu Yusen insisted and pushed the watch in front of her again, then turned and left with the money. Seeing this, Gu Sanjing hurriedly said, "Do you know how to get the watch from me?"
Xu Yusen turned around and said, "I know you, the diving champion."
Gu Sanjing: "Oh."
Well, she’s a celebrity now too.
