The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine - Chapter 122

After Jian Changnian hung up the phone, she looked at her watch. It was almost time. Before Shi An came, she had one more thing to do.

Gao Jian would play ball with his teammates at the open-air stadium in the Olympic Village every afternoon. She had been watching him for a while. Before she went over to say hello to him, Jian Changnian pressed the recording button on her phone and put it in her pocket.

Gao Jian finished the game, wiped his sweat with a towel, and was about to pick up the kettle next to him to drink, when a bottle of mineral water was handed over.

He looked up along his wrist.

Jian Changnian smiled slightly.

“Are you free? I want to chat with you.”

The teammates next to him booed.

“Hey, Gao Jian, you’re pretty lucky, kid.”

“Go, go, what are you playing, hurry up!”

“He also said that the confession was unsuccessful, and this family has offered you water.”

…

He was pushed and shoved by his teammates, with a little embarrassment on his face, but he also knew that Jian Changnian was someone who would go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, after all, she was so firm in her rejection last time.

“I thought you wouldn’t look for me again, what’s the matter?”

Jian Changnian led him to the direction of the apartment.

“Go over there and talk.”

The stadium is very close to the residence apartment of the South Korean team, just turn around a shaded tree and cross a path.

The two stood still in a secluded place.

There was no one around, and Gao Jian felt a little anxious.

“Did you come to me because you changed your mind? What I told you at the time still counts now.”

Heh, she has never been tempted by him, why did she change her mind? Standing with him, Jian Changnian felt extremely disgusted. If it wasn’t for Shi’an’s justice, she wouldn’t even look at him one more time. desire.

She got straight to the point.

“At the Sudirman Cup, did you do it on purpose?”

Gao Jian was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared: “What are you talking about, what is it on purpose.”

“I’ve been watching the replays lately. Heaven pays off. You didn’t expect that your little step back would be captured by an unpopular camera in the corner. Everyone is a professional athlete, so stop pretending.” .”

Now that she saw it, Gao Jian didn’t need to hide it any more. He had a nasty, indifferent smile on his face. He was sure that even if Jian Changnian sent the video to the coach, the national team would not What to do with him.

“So what if I caught it, I can say it was a mistake, isn’t it normal to make a mistake on the field.”

“Do you know where you and Shi’an are?”

He thought that according to Jian Changnian’s temperament, she would be furious, but who knew that she was extremely calm, just looking at him like she was looking at a bedbug.

“You are jealous of her. For your own selfish desires, regardless of national honor, Shi’an will not. She only has badminton in her heart, and she is willing to stand up for the collective benefit at any time.”

“You’re not even worthy to carry her shoes.”

Being accused and compared face to face by her, Gao Jian’s chest heaved up and down, and his reason was destroyed by anger.

“Yes, you praise her, Lu Xiaoting also praises her, the coaches also value her, and the entire national team is full of praise for her, what about me, can’t you all see my goodness?!”

Cui Huixi went downstairs to eat in the cafeteria as usual. As soon as she walked to the door of the apartment, she heard the sound of arguing in the alley next to her. She glanced over casually and saw a familiar figure. Arrived behind the tree.

“Yes, I did it on purpose. I lost that game on purpose. Don’t you like her? Then I will make her unable to play again!”

There’s nothing more chilling than not losing a game but being backstabbed by a teammate.

His selfish desires almost ruined Xie Shi’an’s career. Jian Chang hated him and wished he could be cut into pieces.

She stared at him coldly, every word, as if cursing.

“Gao Jian, you will kill yourself if you do many unrighteous actions, and you will have retribution.”

When Jian Changnian turned to leave, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of figures swaying in the bushes at the door of the apartment.

She reached into her pocket and turned off her phone.

On the last night before departure, Xie Shi’an packed her things at home. After looking around, she still put Yan Xinyuan’s old pipe on the display shelf into the suitcase. When she was about to zip it up, she remembered Read what Jane often read.

“The food in the Olympic Village is not delicious at all. If I knew it, I would have taken the chili sauce made by my grandma.”

She went over to open the refrigerator, took out half a bottle of hot sauce from it, sealed it with plastic wrap and screwed on the lid, and put several plastic bags on it before stuffing it into the suitcase.

Xie Shi’an arrived late, and didn’t even participate in the opening ceremony, and went directly to the venue for the competition the next day.

When she appeared, the audience cheered and everyone shouted her name, Xie Shi’an turned around and waved to the audience.

Jian Changnian also stood up, and wanted to give her a hug, but due to the crowd, she reached out to her with extreme restraint.

“Today’s first game is doubles. I haven’t played together for so long. I wonder if the tacit understanding is still there?”

Xie Shi’an reached out and bumped into her fist.

“You’ll know if you don’t try it.”

Jian Changnian smiled brightly.

“Then… come on!”

“come on!”

Two shouts intertwined with the cheers of the audience.

The game officially kicked off.

According to Wan Jing’s arrangement, the two exchanged offensive and defensive positions. Today’s first game was fairly easy, winning 2-0 directly. Jian Changnian withstood a lot of pressure in the front, frequently smashing the ball and scoring points. When the card was lit, Xie Shi’an stopped and looked at her back.

She was so engrossed, she was still immersed in the game, the clothes on her back were all wet, and she still held the racket and never put it down.

Xie Shi’an suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, which seemed to be relieved, but also a little sad.

It turned out that standing in the backcourt felt like this. Would she have looked at herself like this before?

Looking at the results of today’s game, the commentary in the studio also praised it.

“In the whole game, a total of 42 points were scored. Jian Changnian scored 28 points alone. He is really talented from generation to generation. Anyway, this is Xie Shi’an’s first match after undergoing meniscus surgery. Let us Congratulations to them, the flag is off!”

It wasn’t until the referee’s whistle sounded that Jian Changnian breathed a sigh of relief, came back to his senses, and looked at her with concern.

“How are you?”

Xie Shi’an shook his head.

“I’m fine, I’m fine.”

When eating at noon, Jian Changnian looked at the cafeteria full of pizza, hamburgers, fried chicken… her mouth was almost crooked to the temple, and in desperation, she chose to order a piece of noodles, although the ones were not very authentic. But it’s not bad at all.

As soon as she sat down with the plate, Xie Shi’an passed in front of her and put down a bottle of chili sauce, her eyes lit up immediately.

The other teammates also rushed forward.

“Wow! Hot sauce! It’s been a long time since I tasted authentic Chinese taste, give me a taste, give me a taste!”

Jian Changnian snatched the bottle over and held it in her arms.

“No, no, Shi’an brought it to me!”

“Sister An, take care of her, that’s right.”

“Sister An, you are eccentric, you won’t bring it to us if you bring it to her!”

Xie Shi’an’s head hurt a little, and he quickly ran off with oil on the soles of his feet: “I’m full, eat slowly.”

＊＊＊

In the next few days of competition, they made concerted efforts and passed all the way, and quickly broke out of the group stage.

However, Xie Shi’an’s single event was not so smooth. It is an indisputable fact that she has injuries. Not only will no one underestimate her when dealing with her, but she will also find ways to target her, especially when she has been thoroughly studied. A game is a bit difficult.

After the first round of points round-robin competition in the group, only the top two can advance to the knockout round, and she was able to squeeze into the next round in second place, which had never happened before, and Jane often read it early The ground is out.

Xie Shi’an looked up at the score sheet in front of him, feeling a little disappointed.

Jian Changnian patted her on the shoulder from behind.

“What are you thinking, let’s go eat.”

Xie Shi’an turned around, his expression as usual.

“You go first, I’ll practice later.”

Jane often wanted to see that she had been standing in front of the scoring table for a long time.

“Is it because of the competition…”

“Well, after all, I haven’t played a game for a while.”

Jian Changnian was still a little worried about her knees.

“But Coach Wan also said, let you do what you can, you have played two games today, aren’t you tired?”

Xie Shi’an’s eyes flickered.

Before leaving, the doctor’s words flooded into my mind again.

“Although the operation has been successful and the torn meniscus was barely sutured, it can only be said to be a temporary solution, not the root cause. Now your meniscus is too fragile to withstand the wind and rain. If it is injured again, it will not A problem that can be solved with an artificial knee might cause a disability.”

Xie Shi’an came back to his senses, his voice was soft but firm.

“I don’t want to leave regrets for myself.”

“Then I will accompany you.”

Xie Shi’an raised his eyes to look at her, and slightly bent the corners of his lips.

“Aren’t you going to eat?”

“It’s okay to eat later. It’s important to practice with you. You forgot, it was the same in the past. I will be your training partner when you play.”

Even though it seems like a century has passed, the days in the Maritimes team are still vivid in my memory.

“Then I can’t afford to hire this sparring partner now.”

Jian Changnian put her hands on her shoulders, winking on purpose: “It’s okay, just use…”

Before she finished speaking, Xie Shi’an’s ears turned red, and he hit her waist with an elbow, and bounced away quickly.

“Stop talking nonsense and practice.”

Jian Chang read the pain to the point of tears.

“Hiss…you can’t be gentle with me.”

Xie Shi’an’s response was to raise his hand and throw a racket over.

On the South Korean team, Park Min-heon was also looking at the latest round of points table, leaning on the sofa with a rather happy expression.

“That’s right. Nan Zhi is in good shape recently. It seems that it should be no problem to win two gold medals this year.”

Cui Huixi carefully poured him a glass of red wine from the side: “Coach Park, then… when can I play?”

Park Minxian picked up the wine glass and took a sip slowly.

“What’s the rush? After all, you’re a substitute. It’s only been a few days since I played. I can’t replace you immediately.”

Cui Huixi gritted her teeth. She had been suspended for half a year before, and she finally made it to the Olympics. Naturally, she couldn’t let this opportunity go, so she approached his ear softly and bonelessly.

“Coach Park, I overheard that day…”

“You see, whether it’s singles or doubles, Nan Zhi will always meet Xie Shi’an in the final. Although she is injured now, she can’t guarantee that she will perform exceptionally like last time. With her, the gold medal will always be full. With the unknown.”

Park Minxian pulled her to her side and raised her chin: “Tell me this, what do you want?”

“A chance to play. I have been with Nanzhi for a long time and I am familiar with her left-handed style. As long as you give me this opportunity, I will definitely not let you down.”

A satisfied smile appeared on Park Minxian’s face, and he stroked her face: “Very well, then I will leave this matter to you, let me see your sincerity, and then I will decide whether to give you this chance.”

＊＊＊

The game continued in full swing.

“Let us congratulate Xie Shi’an and Jian Changnian, who defeated the Thai team 2:1 and successfully advanced to the top 16 of the women’s doubles!”

“The South Korean team applied for a substitution, and the substitute Choi Hye-hee played. After nearly a year of silence, I feel that her skills have improved again, and she is playing more steadily than before.”

“In that case, let us congratulate South Korea’s Choi Hye Hee and Kim Nam Ji for beating Indonesia 2-0 and making it to the top 8 women’s doubles!”

“The singles is also a turbulent situation. After Xie Shi’an won Thailand’s Natiya 2:1, the Chinese team Jian Changnian and Lu Xiaoting all advanced to the top 12 of the women’s singles.”

“In the match against the Japanese team, Jian Changnian and Xie Shi’an of the Chinese team were one point behind their opponents and completed a headwind comeback. What is a miracle? This is it!”

“Congratulations to them. They have successfully advanced to the finals. They will compete with Kim Namji and Cui Huixi of the Korean team in the game the day after tomorrow!”

“In the women’s singles quarter-finals held this afternoon, Chinese player Jian Changnian defeated South Korean player Cui Huixi and successfully entered the semi-finals, while Xie Shi’an also narrowly defeated teammate Lu Xiaoting 2:1. In the quarter-finals, they will meet in advance.”

This match was really not easy, Xie Shi’an’s hind legs were trembling slightly after the beating, Jian Changnian came over and handed her a towel, seeing her turn pale, she couldn’t help complaining.

“How about it, are you okay, Xiaoting, you are really serious, Sister An has injuries on her body, and you still hit me so hard.”

Lu Xiaoting scratched her head and smiled embarrassedly.

“I played too hard, I forgot, I really didn’t mean those chasing balls.”

Xie Shi’an raised his hand and threw the towel on Jian Changnian.

“As long as you talk a lot, you should go all out on the field.”

Wan Jing was also happy: “Did you hear me, learn from others.”

Jian Changnian: “Aren’t I worried about Shi’an…”

On the Korean team side, Cui Huixi was being scolded with his head down.

“It’s useless, even Jian Changnian can’t beat it. Did I lift you up from the bench to embarrass you? With Xie Shi’an’s knee injury like that, everyone can make it to the quarter-finals , look at you again!”

His fingers almost poked Cui Huixi’s face.

“If you can’t win the doubles match tomorrow, get out of here and stay on the bench!”

Cui Huixi bent down deeply and bowed to others.

“I’m sorry, Coach Park, I will work hard.”

Park Minxian glanced at the direction in which the Chinese team was leaving, and a gloomy light appeared in his eyes, implying something.

“You really should work hard, think about your future, and why you were suspended.”

Cui Huixi gritted her teeth at once.

“Yes, I know, I will give it a go before the finals.”
