Who would still play tennis after being reborn?

Chapter 123 I still need to consult my master.

Lin Huaiman subconsciously opened WeChat.

Actually, she doesn't use WeChat much; she just occasionally browses her Moments.

She glanced at it and sure enough, the top and bottom were all posts from family and friends about trivial family matters, which looked very boring. Just as Lin Huaiman was about to exit, she suddenly saw Zhai Qing's WeChat profile picture below.

"This girl posted on WeChat Moments too?"

Lin Huaiman was slightly surprised. In her memory, Zhai Qing, like her, rarely used WeChat and mostly used QQ.

Her social circle is small; besides family, she only has a few close friends, and her classmates are mostly added via QQ.

In almost any mobile app ranking list, WeChat and QQ dominate. In most cases, WeChat has higher activity levels than QQ and is more likely to rank first.

However, if you look closely, you'll find that if you limit the age to under 25, or even younger, the situation reverses, with QQ surpassing WeChat to become number one.

why?
QQ was developed with young people in mind, while WeChat was developed with adults in mind. The way WeChat adds friends is based on the address book, which is more in line with the usage of people born in the 70s and 80s.

In addition, my parents use WeChat, and if I post something on Moments that's a bit personal, they'll ask me all sorts of questions.

Sometimes, even if I think my choice of words is perfectly normal, my parents might think it's inappropriate or taboo.

As for blocking? In the eyes of the older generation, that's almost like severing family ties.

More importantly, registering for WeChat requires binding a mobile phone number, while QQ does not have this problem.

Many students don't all have mobile phones, but they all have QQ.

Sometimes, it's common to borrow a classmate's phone to log in to QQ in order to level up.

However, upgrades were more frequent in the past two years, and now they are becoming less and less common.

Lin Huaiman scrolled down the page and immediately saw Gu Cheng's name. She paused for a moment, then clicked on the link sent by Zhai Qing.

After a while.

Seeing the QQ message from Zhou Ming pop up, Lin Huaiman's face stiffened. The sense of superiority she had in front of Zhou Ming before vanished without a trace because of this news.

"He actually beat Federer."

Lin Huaiman's heart, which had already been persuaded by Zhai Qing, started beating again. Even people who don't understand tennis know what it means for Gu Cheng to defeat Federer, who has won a career Grand Slam and has been ranked among the top three in the world, in a single point.

Fame and money meant nothing to Gu Cheng in the future.

In particular, the comments below the news articles, mentioning the prize money of tens of millions of dollars for the four Grand Slam champions, drove Lin Hwai-man to a near frenzy.

If you could win all four Grand Slam titles, even after deducting taxes and the portion that needs to be paid to the Tennis Association, you would still have tens of millions of dollars, which is an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

Lin Huaiman's breathing became increasingly rapid.

A good horse doesn't eat the meat it doesn't eat, but it will eat it later.

This is what Zhai Qing told her, but...

If you won't eat it, I will.

Lin Huaiman opened QQ directly, ignored Zhou Mingxian's eagerness, searched for Gu Cheng's name, and sent a message before realizing that she didn't seem to have Gu Cheng as a friend yet.

My alternate account was also blocked.

Left with no other option, Lin Huaiman had to find Gu Cheng's phone number, which she had obtained from someone else, and send him a text message.

Sweden.

After finishing their match with Federer, Gu Cheng and his two companions met at a restaurant in the city center that specializes in Swedish cuisine.

While enjoying his delicious meal, Gu Cheng's phone, which was placed on the side of the table, suddenly chimed.

Gu Cheng peeked out and took a look.

"Gu Cheng, I just saw the news that you beat Federer. Congratulations! I hope you can go further and further in your career, achieve even better results, and bring glory to the country. —Lin Huaiman." At first, Gu Cheng was curious about who sent him the text message, but when he saw the name in the contact name, he almost choked on the steak he was eating.

To be honest, Lin Huaiman hadn't texted him for quite some time, and he thought she probably wouldn't contact him again and that the two of them wouldn't have any further contact.

After all, even though Lin Huaiman had transferred to his class.

But because of the competition, he was away from school for a long time, so Lin Huaiman probably wouldn't bother him anymore. Unexpectedly, when news of his match with Federer spread back to China, Lin Huaiman started targeting him again.

Gu Cheng simply took the phone and deleted the messages and blocked the number in one go.

Only then did I feel at ease putting my phone aside and continuing to eat my meat heartily.

"The steak at this restaurant is really delicious, it's incomparable to any buffet restaurant." Cao Hui stuffed big mouthfuls of steak into his mouth.

"It smells good, but the price is also expensive." Yu Haoyang's mouth was also full: "This meal alone is worth four or five buffet meals for me."

"That's true."

"But since Acheng is treating, we won't stand on ceremony."

Yu Haoyang ate in silence for a while, then suddenly looked up at Gu Cheng: "Ah Cheng, you've been hiding this really well. You've even mastered the Tezuka Domain. I wouldn't be surprised if you said you've reached the Selfless Realm."

"I think so too." Cao Hui nodded noncommittally.

Gu Cheng was surprised that the two who were just talking about steak had turned around and started talking about this. He smiled helplessly and said, "Even steak can't shut you two up, can it?"

"No, you're really good at this!" Yu Haoyang suddenly put down his knife and fork, his eyes filled with surprise.

Gu Cheng was speechless at his overreaction: "Didn't you say you weren't surprised?"

"No, I was just joking. So you really have the 'selflessness' level of mastery? How did you learn it? I only know how to do one single-leg shuffle step and one outside spin serve. I just can't seem to learn anything else."

Yu Haoyang looked surprised.

"You can serve with topspin?" Cao Hui, who hadn't thought anything of it before, suddenly looked a little confused: "And you can also do one-legged shuffling?"

"I know a bit. A while ago, Acheng taught me. If I hadn't learned the one-legged shuffle step, the half-volley, and the outside spin serve, my skills wouldn't have improved so quickly."

"Fuck!"

Cao Hui immediately sat up straight: "No wonder I felt your skills improved so quickly, it turns out A-Cheng was giving you extra lessons!"

Cao Hui had learned about Yu Haoyang's abilities; he was weaker than Cao Hui, and by a considerable margin.

In just one month, Yu Haoyang went from only being able to compete in the semifinals or quarterfinals to now being able to reach the finals in the ITF Junior Championship in Sweden.

Moreover, the time it takes to finish a match is much shorter than before.

Because of this, he was still a little confused, wondering if Yu Haoyang had somehow unlocked his full potential. He never expected that this guy's rapid progress was actually related to Gu Cheng.

Yu Haoyang patted Cao Hui on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, I'll teach you, we're like brothers!"

Cao Hui's eyes lit up: "Are you serious?"

"Of course I would lie to you."

"Then it's settled. I'll cover all your meals for the next while."

"Sure, sure, but my agreement isn't enough. I still need to consult my master."

Cao Hui turned directly to Gu Cheng and shouted, "Master!"

Yu Haoyang: "Old Cao, you're not that kind of person!"

"???"
