In the eyes of their teammates, these two first-year people who became the team's offensive and defensive cores are strange people. The tall Sima Hongxin rarely speaks, and unlike the goalkeepers who shout during the game, he always silently blocks every shot of the opponent. Silent, but efficient.

Mani is the other extreme, talking a lot, and it is rare for him to go half an hour without saying a word. In fact, his mouth is nasty, his speech is harsh, and he is also a megalomaniac. But from classmates to teammates, to coaches and teachers, they didn't dare to offend him, because his family belonged to the rich and powerful representatives in this area. Everyone respects him because of his family background, but he, a person who lacks self-knowledge, thinks it is because of his "personality charm". He has no friends, except for Sima Hongxin. Sima Hongxin's relationship with him is not what outsiders see. In some places, they are friends, like on the football field; And in some places, the two of them have nothing to do with each other, such as finding someone to threaten the Dawning players to play match-fixing.

Sima Hongxin vaguely knew a little about this kind of thing, although he was a little worried, but he never mentioned it to Mani. He has no interest in caring about the ** that others don't want to mention, even if this ** will cause bad consequences.

Yingcai High School is now on a high trajectory, reaching the round of 16 with two 4-0 scores, and then beating CITIC Heavy Machinery 2-0 in the quarter-finals to advance to the quarterfinals. Mani again took care of those two goals.

Grades can make people forget dissatisfaction, unhappiness, and uneasiness. There was a joyful atmosphere in the elite team, and everyone seemed to have forgotten the hidden discord in the team. There will be no more people who say that "Mani became the main force through connections". Three wins, ten goals scored, not conceded, what an impressive record! The High School Attached to the King of Science and Technology has only scored eight goals, and if it were a league, they would now be the first in the standings, beating the crowd. As a result, the goal of the talent has changed again and again, from the top 16 after the first game to the top four in the second game, and now the "ultimate goal" - to reach the finals, defeat the High School Affiliated to HKUST like a warm-up match, and enter the national competition! This goal has soared, just like the Nasdaq index at the height of the Internet.

There is nothing to blame for this, everyone has the right to dream, but when they seem to be dreaming, they forget that the opponent in the next game is the dawn of the gradual improvement, and they have a Zhang Jun who is also getting better.

What a hell of a day. Zhang Jun visited several newsstands and was told: "High School Soccer is sold out." ”

"Even if the High School Affiliated to HKUST won the national championship, it has never been out of stock!" Zhang Jun muttered as he turned around and went to the next one. However, in the end, he was disappointed, and he ran all over the newsstands within a mile radius, and it was still "High School Soccer sold out." The results.

When I got home, I found Sophie sitting on the edge of her bed, holding the new issue of High School Soccer in her hand. Sophie watched with relish and laughed from time to time.

Zhang Jun approached him and found that the cover of this issue was not him who scored a hat trick, nor Li Yongle, who had just been named the best on the spot, nor the nasty ant...... Rather, Sophie with a sunny face!

Zhang Jun finally understood why this issue of "High School Football" was out of stock. Damn it! When did High School Soccer become Playboy? He cursed in his heart.

But to be honest, Sophie is indeed very photogenic. It's just casually dressed: a garden collar long-sleeved T-shirt, without any powder, and then such a casual smile, put on the cover can be comparable to those female stars.

However, looking at the charismatic Sophie on the cover, Zhang Jun's heart was a little sour. The thought of Sophie having to be with someone of unknown origin made him feel uncomfortable. It's not that he thinks Sophie should belong to him, no one should think about zhan having it. He once saw Anke's big pervert touch the breasts of the female star on the cover of the magazine with his hand, and it is estimated that there are not a few people who are virtuous with Anke. Think about it, these people also touched Sophie's boobs with their hands and kissed Sophie's face with their mouths...... Jang Jun is going crazy.

At this time, Sophie, who was fascinated by reading books, found Zhang Jun next to him, and he was pulling his hair. Sophie was taken aback, and she couldn't figure out the situation, so she cautiously asked Zhang Jun, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Zhang Jun came back to his senses and just saw Sophie's eyes staring at him, those eyes seemed to hook the soul, Zhang Jun's heartbeat accelerated, and he quickly shook his head.

"What's wrong with you?" Sophie asked again, with an indescribable tenderness in her tone.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Zhang Jun tried his best to stabilize his mind, what happened today? The first time I was alone with Sophie, my heart beat faster, was it all because of that cover?

"Nothing? Then why do you desperately grab your hair and shake your head so hard? ”

"Uh, because of the itchy head, dandruff." Zhang Jun once again exerted his wit. Because he was afraid that Sophie would go deeper into this issue, he quickly changed the subject.

"How did you get this issue? I went to all the newsstands around here and couldn't get them. He pointed to Sophie's High School Soccer in her hand.

"Oh, this is what Uncle Chen sent me. He said that it was to thank me for agreeing to be interviewed by him twice. The "Uncle Chen" in Sophie's mouth is Chen Huafeng, and she will not call the names of her elders like Zhang Jun and Yang Pan if she is polite.

"No wonder! It must have been his idea! Zhang Jun snorted.

"Hee-hee! Isn't it pretty? Sophie put the book on her chest and smiled at Zhang Jun, and she struck the same pose as on the cover.

Zhang Jun snorted, and then immediately changed to a smiling face, "Good-looking!" Pretty! Come on, sign me! He had a notebook and a pen in his hand out of nowhere.

Sophie didn't go to sign for Zhang Jun, but asked him, "Don't you like it?" ”

"What?"

"Don't you like me like this?"

"What words! It's your freedom to be on the cover and be interviewed. Why should I care about you? Zhang Jun said without raising his head while flipping through the magazine.

Sophie lifted her school bag: "I'm going back." ”

Zhang Jun then moved his gaze from the book to Sophie: "Go back? Don't sit down much? ”

"No, I'll come directly to your house after school, my mother is in a hurry. This book is for you. ”

"You...... Did you come to give me this book? ”

"Yes! I guess you won't be able to buy it. Sophie grimaced at Zhang Jun and turned to leave.

"Fei Fei? Just came back? "Mom was busy in the kitchen when she heard a knock at the door and poked her head out.

"Well, I'm at Zhang Jun's house, give him the book." Sophie answered and walked into her room.

Throwing her bag on the table, Sophie lay down on the bed herself.

She pulled a knack out of her pocket and put it in front of her eyes to admire. This is a very delicate bracelet, hand-woven, and the red bracelet is braided with two words with white lines: Zhang Jun.

She admired it repeatedly, which she had sacrificed for two days and eighteen lessons to make up. The first time I knitted, I was not very skilled at first, and I broke it many times, but fortunately she was a smart girl, and she quickly mastered the method of knitting bracelets, and this one was her most satisfying work. She put the bracelet on her wrist to see the effect, but unfortunately her wrist was too thin to see any effect, so she switched to the ankle.

Suddenly, I lost interest in all this, and just stared at the bracelet in my hand in a daze.

"Hold your hand out."

"What for?"

"Stick it out! Compare which of us has thicker hands! ”

“……”

"Hee-hee! Your hands are much thicker than mine! ”

"Nonsense! Is it thinner than you? ”

……

"Don't like it?"

"What?"

"Don't you like me like this?"

"What words! It's your freedom to be on the cover and be interviewed. Why should I care about you? ”

Two lines of tears flowed from Sophie's eyes and slid down her cheeks onto the bed.

At this time, Zhang Jun was immersed in reading the new issue of "High School Football". The main content of this issue is the theme about Sophie named by Liu Yang, the editor-in-chief of "High School Football":

Sophie's world.
