Heroes of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 96 Talking on the Phone
On the bus rushing from the stadium to the airport, Chen Yingxiong received a call from Sharapova.

"Hello, hero, I'm Sharapova." Sharapova made a self-introduction. She originally planned to have a good talk with Chen Yingxiong on how to deal with reporters, but Chen Yingxiong made her angry at the first sentence. half dead...

"Hey, why is it you?" It sounded a little surprised and cold, as if she didn't want her to make this call.

She hung up the phone angrily.

She found that she and this Yingxiong Chen seemed to have hit each other, and when she faced him, she would always lose her composure easily.If this was on the tennis court, she would have died countless times...

The bloody bastard!If you have a good attitude, you will die!
Originally, Sharapova thought that the other party would say something like "Ah, hello" when she picked it up, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a cold "Why are you", like pouring a basin of cold water on her head. Same.Make yourself seem very unwelcome.

I wouldn't have called you if I hadn't been able to find someone to talk to.

Chen Yingxiong looked at the phone that suddenly hung up, feeling a little puzzled.When I saw a call from an unfamiliar number and found out it was Sharapova, I was of course surprised.Isn't that normal to ask?

But he never thought that the girl's thoughts are delicate, and what he thinks is a normal reaction may have another meaning in other people's minds?
"It's your rumored girlfriend calling, hero!" Denisov, sitting next to him, booed.

"Go to hell!" Chen Yingxiong gave him a middle finger, but did not answer the question directly.Because Denisov was half right—it was Sharapova calling, but not Gossip Girl.

At this moment, the mobile phone in his hand rang again, and it was still the strange number.

He picked it up: "Hey, I said you are crazy?"

Sharapova was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, her hands trembled and she almost hung up the phone again.

But fortunately, after experiencing the first time, she was somewhat mentally prepared, and she was still stable.

"Chen Yingxiong! I'm calling to discuss a very serious issue with you! Can you have a better attitude? Why are you always like this? Do you always talk like this when you talk to others casually?" Sharapova tried hard to suppress For the anger in my heart, I tried to speak to Chen Yingxiong as politely as possible.

"You hung up after you called to introduce yourself just now." Chen Yingxiong also felt baffled. "Did you call here just to hang up someone's phone? Is it fun?"

Chen Yingxiong is also sharp-tongued.

"You..." Sharapova thought it was her own fault, the phone hanging up was so natural, too fast, too fast to cover her ears...

"Okay, tell me what you want." Chen Yingxiong on the other end of the phone didn't seem to care anymore, making Sharapova tangled here and there, making her seem narrow-minded...

"Are you playing?" Sharapova didn't say directly, but asked a question first.

Chen Yingxiong suddenly felt that Sharapova must have some brain problems: "If you are still competing, how can I answer your phone, sister..."

"Ah, ah! Ooh!" Sharapova blushed, and she also felt embarrassed. "I mean are you free now?"

"I'm on my way from the stadium to the airport, what's going on?"

"Did you meet the reporter?" Sharapova asked.

Chen Yingxiong was silent for a while.

"You also met?" Sharapova's voice came again.

"Yes." Chen Yingxiong replied.

At this time, he noticed that the people on his side, behind and in front of him were all pricking up their ears to eavesdrop on his phone call.He grinned at his gossiping teammates, then turned to face the car window, covering his mouth with his hand.

"Reporters... um, they, they asked you those questions?" Sharapova asked hesitantly.

Chen Yingxiong knew what she was talking about, but he didn't want his teammates to know what it was, so he replied vaguely: "Yes."

"How did you answer?" Sharapova's voice suddenly increased, curious about Chen Yingxiong's answer.It's an image of a little girl waiting for her father to tell him what happened next in the story.It's just that Sharapova herself didn't realize it.

"I said...it has nothing to do with you."

"I said...it has nothing to do with you."

Even though she knew that what the other party said was the truth, Sharapova felt sore for no reason and felt a little disappointed.

"...But they obviously don't believe it." Chen Yingxiong's words followed.

Of course they won't believe it, and if I don't believe it, there is no relationship at all... There are so many stories between us, is it really "no relationship at all"?

"This matter is quite troublesome..." Chen Yingxiong lowered his voice, he was hiding from his teammates who were going to gossip as much as they wanted.I didn't notice it before, but now I find that even a star player like Arshavin, who usually looks like a big brother, is so gossip!
Sharapova nodded to show her agreement, and then she realized that she was on the phone, and Chen Yingxiong on the other end of the phone couldn't see whether she was nodding or agreeing.So I added an "hmm".

"Have you met those reporters too?" Chen Yingxiong finished talking about his own situation, and also cared about the other party's situation by the way.Now the two of them are like "the same people who have fallen into the world" - this is a secret between the two of them, no one has said it, no one knows, so this problem has to be discussed and resolved by the two of them .

"Yeah... I was planning to go out to play, but I was blocked by someone at the hotel entrance..."

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Sharapova was depressed.When I went back, for the sake of relaxing and having fun, what's the point of being stuck in the hotel all day long?

"What did you say?" Chen Yingxiong also wanted to hear how Sharapova would answer the same question.

"I didn't say anything, and ran back to the room. The reporters were blocked outside the door and couldn't get in."

Hearing that Sharapova didn't say anything, Chen Yingxiong was actually a little disappointed...but he didn't know what he was missing.

The two of them chatted like this, seemingly forgetting what they were calling each other for.

It wasn't until the bus arrived at the airport that I realized it...

"Oh, I'm at the airport..." Chen Yingxiong exclaimed.

It is impossible to continue chatting at the airport, at least the environment is not suitable for chatting.So to make a long story short.

"What if a reporter asks again?" Sharapova asked.

"Just say...no comment!" Chen Yingxiong wanted to teach Sharapova to say "I have nothing to do with him", but when the words came to his lips, he became "no comment".What is the specific reason?Maybe it's because you feel that you and Sharapova are nothing now, "I have nothing to do with her"?

"Is that okay?" Sharapova asked.

Chen Yingxiong didn't know whether it was good or not, but what else could he say besides this?Tell the reporters the whole story and tell them "this is the weird relationship we have now"?
Hearing Chen Yingxiong's silence, Sharapova also knew that was the only thing she could say now, so she simply said goodbye to Chen Yingxiong and hung up the phone.

When Chen Yingxiong answered the phone, he turned around and saw a group of people with gossip-like expressions, just like paparazzi.

This startled him: "What are you doing?"

"Hey, you still say it doesn't matter? Hero? You can fool those idiot reporters, but you can't fool us!" Anyukov said with a mean smile.

"You are in love, Alexandra, you have to allow the couple to talk on the phone for a longer time." The team leader Denisov educated Anyukov with a serious face.

"I'm desperate! I'm desperate for a world where even a hero can chat with Sharapova!" Kerzakov clasped his head in his hands and shouted to the sky.

Arshavin leaned on the back of the chair and patted Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder: "Sign, don't forget my signature, hero."

"It depends on you..." Facing a group of bad friends, Chen Yingxiong was speechless.

At this moment, his mobile phone received a text message from the previous number.It seems that this number is Sharapova's number.

"I don't think the answer 'no comment' can solve the problem..."

Chen Yingxiong first saved this number in his mobile phone, but when choosing the name, he did not directly input "Sharapova", but "woman".

"The text message came again! Damn it!"

"The phone call is over, and there are text messages... You are so enviable! Hero! What does Sharapova like about you?"

"This is blatant showing off!"

Amidst the ridicule of his teammates, Chen Yingxiong lowered his head and texted Sharapova back: "What do you think should be done?"

"I...I don't know..."

"Then what do you think our relationship is now?"

After this text message was sent, there was no reply for a long time.

Chen Yingxiong was also about to get out of the car. He put his mobile phone in his pocket, then got up abruptly and got out of the car.

He completely forgot that he was sitting in the window seat inside, and that what was above his head was not the roof, but... the luggage rack.

then……

"oops!"

Chen Yingxiong covered his head and sat down again.

The people next to him gloated and laughed.

"Although beautiful women are good, don't be dazzled by happiness..." Eric Hagen patted Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder with a smile.

Chen Yingxiong covered his head and rolled his eyes at them - he really can't talk to these people!

Sharapova looked at the phone screen in a daze.

The screen has gradually dimmed, and eventually there is nothing to see - the phone has entered standby mode.

But she remembered the contents above clearly.

"Then what do you think our relationship is now?"

Yes, what does it matter?

friend?

Sharapova shook her head vigorously. If this was a friend, wouldn't she be friends with those people she hated?
enemy?

Is there an enemy you can talk to for more than half an hour on the phone?

Partner at work?

It seems more plausible, but how to explain the fact that she came out of Chen Yingxiong's apartment before work?
This is the biggest flaw, and also the biggest secret of the relationship between the two of them...

She couldn't say that Chen Yingxiong took her to his house because she drank too much, could she?

In that case, what kind of person have you become?
I'm not the kind of bus that you can just get on if you pay!
After thinking about it, Sharapova couldn't figure out the relationship between herself and Chen Yingxiong, so she replied with a rhetorical question: "What do you think?"

There was no reply for a long time.

Sharapova frowned and waited for a while before calling directly.She didn't know where her impulsiveness came from, anyway, she dialed directly.

But the news from the other end of the phone seemed to have poured cold water on her.

"...Sorry, the phone you dialed is off..."
