"Lin Gaoyuan, I wish you an open, happy and free future."
Wang Manyu held up the wine glass, his eyes were red, but he smiled more decently than anyone else.
The 25-year-old world champion, the "tragic artist" with nine silver medals, finally ended his career with his own hands.
He said he wanted to go back to Shenzhen to play the racing car he always wanted to play.
He said that his table tennis era was over.
He is a coward.
After falling nine times in the closest place to a Grand Slam, he finally chose to turn around and leave.
In the place closest to love, let go of the hand that has hugged her.
She is brave.
From a small town in the Northeast to the top of the world, from a substitute to the absolute main player.
When everyone advised her to "forget it", she grabbed his collar and said:
"It doesn't matter if you are a coward, I dare anyway."
Then, he stood up on his tiptoes and kissed the corner of his mouth.
