"Hey, Gawain!"
"Good morning, Mr. Gao."
"Yo, man..."
Along the way, everyone greeted Gawain, including unfamiliar guests, hotel staff, and other players preparing to participate in the Queen's Club Cup. In an instant, Gawain was crowned Mr. Universe?
The key point is, what are those winks and meaningful looks? Some are exploring, some are joking, and some are admiring, but they all understand each other tacitly, as if they are playing a game of charades.
Gawain: ??? After finishing a simple warm-up in the morning at the gym, Gawain arrived at the hotel restaurant and prepared to have breakfast. He could see Sampras and his team from a distance, so he walked over and took the initiative to mention what had just happened.
"Are there any surprises planned for the tournament? Why is everyone..."
Before he could finish his words, Gao Wen noticed that the coaching team in front of him had a half-smile on their faces. The look in their eyes was filled with the typical gloating of a spectator. They were all looking at Gao Wen and trying hard to hold back their smiles.
"Wait, what happened? Why are you grinning?"
Puff.
Sampras was the first to laugh, but no one gave Gawain an explanation. It was Pelt who couldn't stand it anymore and gave a friendly explanation.
"You haven't had time to watch the news yet?"
news?
Gao Wen was stunned for a moment, and an ominous premonition emerged in his mind.
The next second, there was a "bang" and someone grabbed Gawain's shoulder from behind. Gawain was startled and turned around to see Dimitrov's brilliant smile. Although his face was full of regret, he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes. He had tried very hard to save his face.
"Sorry, mate, for being in the headlines of The Sun in such a way."
Gao Wen: ...
Now, Gawain finally came to his senses. Although no one told him what had happened, one key word was enough: "The Sun".
What other answer could there be except gossip? A dog cannot spit out ivory, and there are only so many pieces of news that The Sun can hold on to.
Gawain shook his head slightly and gave a wry smile, "How bad is it?"
Dimitrov understood Gawain's situation very well and patted Gawain on the shoulder. "It's on Twitter's real-time hot search list, and it's on the global list. It's on the list in many countries and regions, and the number of tweets has exceeded 10 million."
Ten million?
Even though Gao Wen had prepared himself mentally, he had not expected the situation to develop so rapidly. It had only been a few hours since last night, so how could it have developed to such a level?
"Gawain, you know what we're talking about, right?" Sampras asked curiously, and then answered kindly, "Your scandal with Jennifer Lawrence, late-night date, right in our hotel."
As he was talking, Dimitrov took out his mobile phone and opened the social network. He casually browsed and saw prominent keywords on different platforms.
"Jennifer Lawrence, Gawain".
Gao Wen casually scanned it and found that it was not only The Sun, but all major mainstream media also reported the news at the first time, including The Times, Los Angeles Times, etc.
I clicked on the report in The Times and what caught my eye was a photo. Last night in the hotel lobby, two people were standing at the front desk and talking. Although the two people kept a certain distance, the title was very bold.
"Lawrence checked into the hotel where Govan was staying late at night."
Moreover, it was only then that Gao Wen noticed that Lawrence had taken off her high heels and was standing barefoot next to him. No wonder the news contained such explicit words as "drunk, naive, true to nature, and impatient".
As a colleague, Gao Wen has to admire the media's ability to tell stories with pictures. Even if they are not at the scene, they can still describe the plot vividly.
But even The Times is like this? Isn't this too much?
Then, Sampras' voice came to my ears.
"…Last night at midnight, a familiar reporter called me and asked whether this story was true or not. Andre did the same."
“We didn’t know how to respond.”
"John probably didn't rest the whole night and is still dealing with things in his room. So what's going on?"
In fact, Sampras really dislikes these scandals. Off-court gossips are the most noisy and annoying, which often distracts him and makes him very annoyed.
But Sampras believed in Gao Wen's ability to deal with the media. Time and time again, events have proved that Gao Wen is calm in the face of adversity. Instead, they often make a fuss, so they persuaded themselves not to lose their composure.
Just trust Gawain.
Gao Wen looked up at Sampras and gave a faint smile.
"Peter, why do I feel like your tone is a little off?"
"No way... No way!" Sampras waved his hands repeatedly with a long tone, but then he changed the subject and leaned forward slightly, asking curiously, "What happened last night?"
Gao Wen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Nothing happened last night."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
However, seeing Agassi and Pelt both looking at him curiously, Gao Wen was speechless. "Guys, I have a date. Have you forgotten? Nothing happened last night."
Agassi shook his head seriously. "Kid, emotions are fluid. We know that you and Emily are dating, but that doesn't mean there are no other possibilities. We shouldn't deny other possibilities."
“Especially you young people, you always like to take risks and try new things, right?”
After saying this, you can see Sampras and Pelt nodding their heads very seriously in agreement, and even Dimitrov is no exception -
This guy! Doesn't Dimitrov like Sharapova wholeheartedly? Gao Wen directly hit Dimitrov in the chest to express his protest, and then looked at Agassi, "Does Steffi know what you think?"
Agassi touched his bald head in a simple manner and chuckled twice, "She was ridiculous when she was young. She knows all the history."
Sampras secretly complained, "I can't hide it even if I want to."
this……
Gao Wen couldn't help laughing helplessly and absurdly, and shook his head gently, "Fake, all the news is fake."
"Nothing happened last night."
"I helped her out a little at the premiere and then lent Jennifer my coat. She returned it to me before she went to Tom's after party and thanked me again, and that was it."
In just a few words, Gao Wen explained the whole story in the simplest way:
In fact, Gao Wen noticed the noise in the restaurant. Even if they lowered their voices, there were definitely more than one or two people around who were listening intently.
It just so happens that Gawain can use them to make clarifications and spread the news.
In the Internet age, every netizen is a source of information.
As a result, Dimitrov's face was full of surprise. It could be seen from his eyes that he was truly surprised, and he exclaimed out loud without any concealment.
"Really? You guys aren't in any relationship? You guys aren't dating?"
Gawain: ??? They have been training together recently, Dimitrov should know the most, but even Dimitrov is like this? Gawain was really at a loss for words, "Grigor?"
Dimitrov also realized Gawain's look, and then waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm not making random guesses, but Jennifer's statement is different from yours."
