Moscow in the early morning was unusually quiet, no noise, no hustle and bustle. The snow had stopped, and a rare ray of sunshine appeared on the horizon, and then her brilliance was sprinkled on the snow, but this brilliance was as small and weak as a newborn baby, unable to melt even a little bit of snow, only to make the snow-white earth brighter.

Zhang Guan slowly opened his eyes and realized that it was already dawn, and then he remembered something that happened last night.

"She's not going to go again!" Zhang Guan immediately turned his head, but found Sharapova lying beside him, staring at him, and between the corners of her eyes, there was a faint trace of tears, golden hair floating on the snow-white pillow, and that wheat-like healthy complexion looked more exotic. For a while, Zhang Guan was stunned.

"The ancients were beautiful and picturesque, uh, no, this is a Western girl, so it's an oil painting!" Zhang Guan thought to himself.

"Are you awake?" Sharapova then added: "I just woke up, too. ”

"I'm sorry......" Zhang Guan said subconsciously.

"Why apologize?" Sharapova asked.

"You're crying." Zhang Guan felt that it might be his own sin.

"It's not your fault." Sharapova took a deep breath and continued: "It's just that when I just woke up, I felt a little wronged and a little confused. ”

Zhang Guan was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized that she was still a girl less than eighteen years old after all, maybe everything that happened suddenly these days made her a little difficult to accept, maybe he had been under great pressure.

"I started playing tennis when I was five years old...... "Sharapova begins to tell all about her. She started learning to play tennis at the age of five, and when she was nine years old, her father sold his property and took her across the ocean to the United States, when they had no money, and her father worked several odd jobs to support her tennis, and Sharapova also focused all his attention on tennis, because she knew it. Only tennis could change her life. Five years later, in 2000, Sharapova won her first title, which was enough to attract the attention of many people, although it was only the junior category. Then she had a sponsorship, which was not a lot of money, but at least it could greatly improve their lives. Then, in 2001, Sharapova played in the professional league for the first time, and in 2002, at the age of 15, Sharapova appeared on the WTA (International Women's Professional Professional Network) stage. She finished runners-up at Wimbledon and the Australian Open in the junior category, followed by Sharapova's first WTA Tour title in 2003 and a Grand Slam at Wimbledon in 2004.

Zhang Guan listened quietly, he could imagine that a nine-year-old girl in a place like the United States must have experienced a lot of difficulties, perhaps being discriminated against, being unfair, and even suffering from school violence...... But she tried to persevere. Under tremendous pressure, and then stood at the top of the world.

Zhang Guan suddenly felt that compared to Sharapova, he was simply a soft egg. She's strong, she's persistent, she's hardworking, and she's accomplished. And he is just a cheater who relies on the system.

"What about you? Zhang, tell me about you......" Sharapova began.

"Okay, Sharapova." Zhang Guan's voice changed suddenly. Rhetorical question: "What should I call you now?" Maria? ”

"You'd better call me Martha!" Sharapova spoke.

"Alright, Martha." Zhang Guan hugged Sharapova tightly and said, "My family is very ordinary. I can't talk about wealth or poverty, I was very ordinary when I was young, and like ordinary people, I went to kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and high school. Then I took an athlete's test and was spotted by my coach and became an athlete. Then I broke the national record, I broke the Asian record, and I broke the world record at the Olympics...... Well, you should know what happened next. ”

"Finished?" Sharapova asked with a glare.

"It's over." Zhang Guan nodded, he remembered the experience of his previous life, and said: "Before the age of seventeen, I was an ordinary person, a very ordinary person, so I lived an ordinary life, everything was according to the plan, if I didn't become an athlete, I might be admitted to a third-rate university, and then find an ordinary job, find a wife who is not beautiful but very virtuous, have one or two children, and live a dull life." ”

"A dull life, this may be good!" Sharapova nodded thoughtfully, then got up from the bed, picked up the bath towel that had fallen on the floor, covered her body and walked to the bathroom, while speaking, "I need to take a shower." ”

"Do you want to be together?" Zhang Guan smiled evilly, and seeing that Sharapova did not object, she immediately jumped out of bed and followed like a pug.

……

The escort sent by the center spent the night nervously, in principle, athletes are not allowed to act alone, but Zhang Guan got directly into someone else's car yesterday, he shoulders the mission of accompanying and supervising Zhang Guan, if Zhang Guan has any accidents, he must be responsible.

Fortunately, he learned at the front desk last night that Zhang Guan had returned, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, but early the next morning, he still came to Zhang Guan's door and wanted to ask what was going on yesterday.

A waiter walked out of Zhang Guan's room with a smile on his face and a hundred-dollar tip in his hand.

When the escort saw the waiter, he immediately asked, "Are the guests inside up?" ”

The waiter knew that the Oriental in front of him was coming with the Oriental guest who had just tipped him, so he nodded: "Yes, I think they are enjoying breakfast." Well, I suggest you can bother him a little later! ”

For the sake of tipping, the waiter kindly reminded. But the center's escort apparently didn't pay attention to the waiter's reminder, let alone the waiter's use of the word "they".

He walked to Zhang Guan's door and knocked lightly, and soon after, Zhang Guan opened the door, and he walked in directly, saying as he walked: "Zhang Guan, you ...... yesterday"

He was just halfway through his sentence when he saw a blonde woman in the room, dressed in a dressing gown, sitting at the table eating breakfast.

Although he didn't recognize Sharapova, how could he not understand what was going on in this scene!

"Well, it doesn't seem like I've come at the right time, let's get back to it, let's talk about it later!" He glared at Zhang Guan meaningfully, then quickly walked out of the room and closed the door for Zhang Guan.

"Young people nowadays are more open-minded! Should this matter be reported? He hesitated for a moment, and then said to himself: "Athletes usually have a lot of pressure in training and competitions, so they should occasionally relax their tense nerves." No wonder I ran away directly yesterday, it turned out to be a beautiful woman who had an appointment! But I have to remind Zhang Guan to pay attention to safety. ”

……

In the room, Sharapova saw Zhang Guan coming back and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"No problem." Zhang Guan shook his head, but secretly wondered in his heart whether to buy something for the center's escort at the airport duty-free shop to gag his mouth.

Zhang Guan sat down next to Sharapova, casually picked up a vegetable leaf, and put it directly in his mouth

"Not for anything else?" Sharapova asked.

"I'm going to Germany for an indoor tournament and next Thursday, and according to the rules I can't eat indiscriminately, at least meat. There should be no problem with vegetables. Zhang Guan said.

"Then you can't eat vegetables all the time these days! Athletes can't do it if they don't eat meat. Sharapova spoke.

"It's okay, I ordered the steak, and the people I brought with me would go to the kitchen and watch the chef cook it themselves, so it would be no problem to eat it." Zhang Guan paused, and then said, "What about you?" What's next for you? ”

"I'm going to Japan, I thought that if you also want to go back to China, I can still do the same flight as you, but I didn't expect you to stay in Europe." Sharapova continued: "The Pan Pacific Open in Japan is at the end of the month and the prize money is high, so it's well worth visiting. ”

"Yes, the Japanese like to throw money at it." Zhang Guan remembered the appearance fee of the Yokohama All-Star Game and deeply agreed.

……

Two athletes in different fields are destined to get together less and leave more, whether it is Zhang Guan or Sharapova, they have endless games, so they are destined to be impossible to stay together every day like ordinary lovers.

After a short period of good time, Zhang Guan had to separate from Sharapova and board a plane to Germany, which was also about to leave for Tokyo.

The Sparks Cup Indoor Track and Field Tournament is held in Stuttgart, Germany, compared to the cold Moscow, Stuttgart in the basin is much warmer, because of the large number of forests around the city, there is no ice and snow here in winter, and there is rarely cold wind, of course, there is less precipitation, and the climate is relatively dry.

The vast majority of track and field athletes prefer a dry climate with less moisture in the air, and electrolytes in muscle cells can give athletes better explosive power.

After Zhang Guan arrived in Stuttgart, he had just completed the procedures for entering the hotel when he received a call from He Yiming.

"Zhang Guan, your new world record is too timely. I have a very interesting news here, there is a greater disagreement within the association about the matter of our agent team, and now there is a voice, that is, do not affect your participation in the competition for the time being, and the discussion about the agent team is postponed. He Yiming continued with some sighs: "Sports are really the winner is king, I didn't expect a world record to play such a big role." ”

"Do you want me to add another fire?" Zhang Guan asked.

"Heat up? What, break another world record and come back? He Yiming asked with a smile.

"Well, I'm working hard, I'm going to fight for it, and I'm almost able to break the world record." Zhang Guan replied. (To be continued.) )
