MTL - The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine-Chapter 106 nova

After that, Xie Shi'an's life returned to the calmness of the past. Through this Olympic Games, she also realized where her weaknesses are. The day after she was discharged from the hospital, she devoted herself to intense competition training. Enhance physical fitness.

What is different from the past is that in addition to training, she also finds time to see a psychiatrist every week.

Because she had attempted suicide before, and Coach Liang was afraid that she would leave any psychological shadow. At first, Jian Changnian accompanied her. Gradually, she was able to face the counseling of the psychiatrist independently. Finally, A day in late September.

Autumn is crisp and the sky is blue.

The psychiatrist looked at her with a smile on his face.

"Today is a good weather, congratulations, from next week, you don't have to come."

Xie Shi'an was taken aback for a moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, he shook hands with him, and left him two tickets.

"Thank you. This is the ticket for the national competition. If you have time, please come and watch my game."

The start date is set after the National Day. When Yan Xinyuan was here before, everyone thought that his training plan was too strict. He is gone, and no one stood downstairs early in the morning with a horn and a stopwatch to call them. Get up, but go down earlier than one.

Every morning, when the running call sounded, Wangfu would also rush out of the office and follow behind the team, shaking his head.

At noon, they were exposed to the scorching sun, and Wangfu lay on his stomach under the shade of the playground, snoring with his head bowed.

At night, Xie Shi'an was always the last one to return to the dormitory, because she was delayed too much time due to injuries.

Before the game, Coach Liang said that this year we cannot have no head coach and no captain, and they have to choose one by themselves.

Everyone turned their attention to Xie Shi'an.

Xie Shi'an was taken aback.

"Me? I'll let it go."

Everyone knows that she has finished the national competition and will not be here early next year, but she still insists on choosing her as the captain.

"Shi'an, you are the strongest among us."

"Yes, and he's still an old player."

"Yes, we all believe in you."

…

In a few words, the hospitality is hard to stop.

In the end, it was Coach Liang who made the decision.

"Okay, that's it."

On the day of departure.

Jian Changnian packed up her things, ran two steps, turned back, took the photo from the wall, and carefully put it in the breast pocket of her coat.

The photo was of her, Xie Shi'an and Coach Yan. The one taken in Beijing was also one of the few images of Yan Xinyuan left in the world.

Xie Shi'an looked at the pipe placed side by side with his medal on the table, with nostalgic eyes.

Jane Changnian gave this to her.

A familiar call came from the door.

"Pick up."

"team leader."

"team leader."

"Captain, it's time to go."

…

Xie Shi'an responded, picked up the pipe, and put it in his golf bag.

"coming."

＊＊＊

Cheers.

Shouts.

whistle.

Hit the ball.

heartbeat.

Standing on the familiar arena again, Xie Shi'an couldn't help opening his arms, embracing the wind blowing towards her from all directions.

"Let us congratulate the Binhai Province team for winning the first game and beating the Guangxi team 3:1!"

"Let us congratulate the Binhai Province team for beating the Shanghai team 3:2 and scoring another big point!"

"Let us congratulate the Binhai Province team for beating their arch-rival Zhejiang team 3-0 and securing their qualification for the Eastern Division ahead of schedule!"

…

Scene by scene, frame by frame.

The teenagers are sweating, from the Eastern Division to the stage of the finals.

When the scoreboard lights up.

The audience is boiling.

"Xie Shi'an defeated the players from the Sichuan team 2:0 and scored this crucial point for the Binhai team!"

"Tonight's champion belongs to—"

The live commentary left the microphone to the audience.

The tsunami roared from the stands, and the sound waves swept the entire stadium like a tide.

"Xie Shi'an! Xie Shi'an! Xie Shi'an!!"

"Team Binhai! Team Binhai! Team Binhai!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, audience friends, let's cheer for them!!"

When they stood on the highest podium and held up the trophy, Jian Changnian took out the photo from his pocket, held it up high, and pointed the camera at it.

Coach Yan, have you seen it?

The applause of flowers at this moment is also for you.

Seeing this scene, the commentator was also a little moved.

"The Maritimes team, this year's team has not been favored since the group stage. They don't have a head coach, and the captain has been caught in a storm of public opinion. To be honest, I was worried at one point. This year's roster will see They are not seen, but fortunately, they survived, and they stand here not only for their dreams, but also to inherit their coach's last wish."

"Their persistence, Xie Shi'an's persistence, reminded me of a sentence."

"Even if there is a strong wind, life will never give up." [1]

"To the audience friends in front of the TV, I hope we can all have such courage."

After winning the national competition team championship for two consecutive times, the Binhai Provincial Team created a new history and became the first team to win the gold and silver medals in women's singles and women's doubles at the same time. Xie Shi'an defended the championship again. Chang Nian regretted winning the silver medal, while the women's doubles gold medal was won by Zhang Chun and Yang Li. Unknowingly, the once immature teenagers were able to stand alone.

After returning from Beijing, the Chinese New Year is almost here.

On New Year's Eve, when everyone got together, Coach Liang made an exception and allowed them to drink some wine, pouring everyone a sip.

Jane Changnian watched eagerly.

"Where's mine, where's mine?"

Xie Shi'an took the cup in front of her away.

"You can't drink."

The teammates booed and laughed at her.

"Hahaha who told you that you are the only minor in our team now."

Jian Changnian chased the speaker for a long time and did not stop until the food was served.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, some things should be said, and some people will always leave.

Zhang Chun put down the cup first, his eyes were slightly red.

"Next year... the captain will leave next year, and I will... not be here anymore."

In the silence of the room, Jian Changnian spoke first, speaking eagerly.

"What do you mean you are not here anymore? Didn't you fight well? Why..."

"My contract has expired, and the Zhejiang team intends to sign me. They talked with me after finishing the national competition. I hesitated for a long time, but they did offer better conditions."

Now that this is all said, Yang Li also stood up and poured a glass for Coach Liang and Xie Shi'an.

Jian Changnian's tears fell down in a snap.

"Lili, you shouldn't be..."

"Me? I'm not. I'm not that talented. This year's doubles gold medal was won by Chun'er. That's enough. My dream has come true. Next year... next year I will go abroad to study. This cup, respect for Coach Liang And the captain, I will do it first as a respect."

In a blink of an eye, during the training camp, there were twenty or thirty people neatly walking, scattered, going around, and only the smallest Jian Changnian was left.

Coach Liang stood up holding the wine glass, his eyes were also red.

"Together is a ball of fire, and scattered is like a sky full of stars. No matter where our Binhai provincial team goes, we must go forward bravely."

"I wish everyone a bright future. I will drink this cup for Lao Yan!"

When the game ended, there was no car to go back to the training base, so Jian Changnian followed Xie Shi'an back home.

When he walked to the gate of the community, there was another shop selling spicy noodles in a familiar place, Jian Changnian was moved in his heart, and pulled people to go there.

Xie Shi'an was a little reluctant.

"Aren't you full yet?"

"Just now I was so patronizing that I cried, how can I eat anymore?"

"It's definitely not that one, it's not delicious."

"Oh, you haven't tried it, how do you know?"

Xie Shi'an couldn't hold back her, and was finally dragged to the stall by a young guy in his twenties.

"Boss, take away two bowls of rice noodles, one bowl is extra spicy, add more coriander, one bowl is slightly spicy, and two more eggs."

"Okay, just wait a moment."

When the rice noodles were ready, Jian Changnian saw that there was no one at the stall, so he chatted with the boss casually.

"Today's New Year's Eve, you don't rest, do you?"

"Hey, when my mother was here, she could still have a reunion year. She left. This New Year's Eve is not interesting. Why don't you come out and set up a stall, hoping to make more money."

Xie Shi'an was startled, and then took a closer look at the shape of his face, brows and eyes, which was almost similar to the aunt who set up the stall before.

"Did your mother set up a stall here before?"

The boss raised his head with joy in his eyes.

"Yes, you know her? She has been here for more than twenty years."

"I grew up eating rice noodles from her family."

After hearing this, the boss insisted not to take their money. In the end, Xie Shi'an said that if he didn't take it, she would not come here in the future.

The boss just gave up and scooped up two more marinated eggs for them and put them in a bag. When he took them, Xie Shi'an laughed and said something.

"Thank you, happy new year."

The boss was startled, and also showed a simple and honest smile.

"Hey, Happy New Year."

The Spring Festival Gala is not over yet, and Jian Changnian is obviously too sleepy, but he still insists on staying with her to watch the new year.

The nickname is: "Everyone is not here this year, it's already without a sense of ceremony, and we can't even save the New Year's Eve."

Xie Shi'an had no choice but to go with her. He was not sleepy anyway, drinking some wine, eating melon seeds and peanuts, and watching TV was a rare leisure time.

When approaching zero.

bang bang—

The whole city was plunged into a sea of ​​fireworks.

The sound of firecrackers one after another made Jian Changnian bounce off the sofa in an instant, and dragged Xie Shi'an up to the rooftop.

"Shi'an, Shi'an, let's watch the fireworks."

The two sat side by side next to the water tank on the roof, their hair blown by the bitter winter wind.

Jian Changnian looked up at the fireworks in full bloom above the city. The firelight shone on her face, and even her pupils were painted in colorful colors.

She pinched a can of beer in her hand, which she begged Xie Shi'an with great difficulty. She always felt that such a good festival would not be suitable for the occasion without drinking some wine.

"It's so beautiful, it's as beautiful as the one we showed last year."

Xie Shi'an picked up the can, took a sip, his eyes were calm, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Jian Changnian turned her head to look at her.

"when are you leaving?"

"tomorrow."

"But is it the end of the year?"

"No, the Uber Cup will start at the end of February, so we have to prepare early."

"I still want to..." Jian Changnian lowered his eyelids.

Xie Shi'an looked over.

"What are you thinking?"

Jian Changnian smiled.

"nothing."

Xie Shi'an turned his head back again.

"When you go home, take back the gift I bought for grandma, and put it in my dormitory, and say hello to her for me."

There was always a smile on Jian Changnian's lips.

Innocent, bright, innocent and warm.

"Shi'an, will you come back and take a look?"

"meeting."

"Shi'an, do you miss Coach Yan?"

"I've always missed him."

"Shi'an, are there any other puppies in the national team, will you forget Wangfu?"

Xie Shi'an couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips. What kind of question is this? She turned her head, and Jian Changnian's eyes gradually blurred.

Sure enough, the man was drunk again.

She wanted to take away the soda can in her hand, but Jian Changnian leaned over again, hugged her arm, and shook it.

"Shi'an, answer me, will you forget Wangfu?"

There was a smile in Xie Shi'an's clear pupils, and there was an unconscious softness in his eyes when he looked at her.

"Won't."

"Then will you forget me?"

"No."

"Then we'll always be friends?"

"meeting."

Jian Changnian laughed contentedly, but it was unavoidable that she pushed herself a little too hard. She was obviously too sleepy, but she was still counting on her fingers.

"Shi'an, today you told Chun'er, Lili, Coach Liang, the security guard at the gate, and the little brother who set up the stall, all of you said Happy New Year. As for mine, I want it too."

As she spoke, the soda can in her hand fell to the ground, and she fell over.

Xie Shi'an had quick hands and eyes, and put his palm between her head and his shoulders to prevent her bones from hurting her.

She looked at Jian Changnian's flickering eyelashes, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of her lips, complaining.

"Ah, really, let me carry you back again."

Jian Changnian woke up the next morning on Xie Shi'an's bed, and her light and pleasant smell came from beside the pillow.

She turned over subconsciously, but it was in vain.

"Pick up..."

Jian Changnian woke up suddenly and sat up.

The room was empty.

Xie Shi'an's suitcase in the corner was also gone.

she left.

When this idea popped up, Jian Changnian seemed to feel empty in his heart, stuffy, sour and astringent.

There was the key to her house on the bedside table, and there was a post-it note under it. She picked it up and saw that it was Xie Shi'an's handwriting.

"I'm gone, I hope you, every year, will be happy."

Looking at the familiar handwriting, she finally laughed, smiling, but tears fell down again.

＊＊＊

In the year after that, they really responded to what Coach Liang said:

Gathering is a fire, scattering is a sky full of stars.

Shine and shine in their respective arenas.

When Xie Shi'an first joined the national team, he led the Chinese team to win the Uber Cup. In the finals, they even defeated Jin Nanzhi 2:0, which was a shame.

After that, it was even more exaggerated that she won three championships a year, sweeping all major competitions around the world, and her dominance in the badminton world was unshakable.

Jian Changnian followed the path she had traveled, from the national competition to the Intercontinental Cup, from unknown to an Asian rising star, chasing her step by step.

In addition to the busy competition, Xie Shi'an was also reviewing cultural lessons, and passed the single-entry examination of Tsinghua University with excellent results, and the day he received the admission notice.

The first person in her mind who could share her joy was Jian Changnian.

When the phone call came, Jian Changnian yelled in the training room: "Ah, ah, Shi'an, you are too good!! Tsinghua University! It's Tsinghua University! I dare not even dream about it!"

Xie Shi'an silently took the phone away.

Jian Chang thought about it for a while, and then said excitedly.

"Shi'an, I also have good news to tell you."

"what?"

"I have qualified for the World Youth Championship!"

The World Youth Championship is limited to young athletes under the age of 19. It is the highest-level event in the world badminton youth competition. It can be said that it brings together the world's top young players. It will stir up the world badminton in the future. Among them, participating in the World Youth Championship is also her first step towards the world. [2]

Xie Shi'an said sincerely: "Congratulations."

Long time no see, Jian Changnian is still a little shy.

"Then can you watch me play?"

Xie Shi'an thought about it.

"In September, I'm going to report to school."

Jane Chang felt lost, but she didn't let her hear it.

"It's okay, then... Then after I finish playing, I guess you will also have the National Day holiday, so we can play together again then."

"it is good."

Xie Shi'an hung up the phone, turned around and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. On the day of the World Youth Championship finals, he heavily drew a circle with a red pen.

＊＊＊

"A young man who came out of a small border town ran, shouted, cried all the way, crashed, despaired, fell and got up again, followed the path of his predecessors, over mountains, across oceans, staggering I staggered after my ideal flower, and finally, it bloomed in the cold Vancouver tonight."

"Let us congratulate Jian Changnian for winning her first world championship in her career. Congratulations to her."

"Another rising star in the world badminton world is slowly rising."

The moment the teenager won the championship, the audience was boiling, mountains roared and tsunami burst, and flowers and applause fell for her.

She raised her head and bathed in the sea of ​​flowers, tears filled her eyes, and held up the photo in her hand.

The three people in the photo are the same as before.

In the auditorium, someone pulled up the banner.

"Jian Changnian, you will always be our pride."

The camera swept over and brought to the faces of Xie Shi'an and Zhou Mu. The young man couldn't hold back, bent his lips, and cried.
