The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine - Chapter 125

Xie Shi’an’s cell phone was always turned off.

Jian Changnian ran to her school, and the counselor said that she had taken a long vacation and hadn’t come to class for a while.

In the end, he looked at her with a complicated expression.

“Don’t you think that your coming to see Shi’an at this time will have a bad influence on her?”

Some students had already gathered in the corridor, Jian Changnian pursed her lips, said nothing, just nodded apologetically, turned around and left.

She went to Xie Shi’an’s residence in Beijing again. There was already a layer of dust on the door, and fingerprints could be left on the door.

She knocked for a long time, but there was no answer. The neighbor came out impatiently and said, “It’s noon, let me rest. Stop knocking. I’m not here. I haven’t come back for a long time.”

Jian Changnian’s face was gloomy, and he turned to leave, but he didn’t give up, and went back to the training base to ask his teammates one by one.

“Do you know which hospital Shi’an lives in?”

“I don’t know, I don’t know.”

“Did Coach Wan tell you where she had the operation?”

“No, how could he tell us that.”

Lu Xiaoting opened the door, saw that it was her, and without waiting for anyone to open her mouth, she immediately smiled wryly and said, “Don’t ask, Coach Wan has issued a death order to the team. If anyone dares to reveal Shi’an’s whereabouts, he will be expelled and deal with it.” Even if I know, I can’t tell you.”

Everyone who could ask was asked, but Jian Changnian still didn’t say a word, turned around and left, looking like she couldn’t find anyone and vowed not to give up, Lu Xiaoting called people to stop, stomping her feet anxiously.

“You haven’t fully recovered from the injuries on your body, can’t you calm down?!”

Jian Changnian didn’t look back.

“If you don’t tell me where she is, then I can only search for her in every hospital in Beijing.”

“You…Are you short-hearted? You, Beijing is so big, you have to find out when to go! Just listen to Coach Wan and don’t see her again. It’s good for you and Sister An.”

Jian Changnian turned around, moved her lips, and her eyes were red.

“I don’t do anything, I just… want an answer.”

The last time I saw her was in the hospital, Lu Xiaoting told her. She walked over slowly and looked at her through a window.

The doctor untied the gauze wrapped around her right leg, sterilized it, and then used scissors to cut off the rotten and hyperplastic granulation at the surgical incision. Her originally smooth and white skin became pitted and full of scars. Xie Shi’an endured enormous pain during the whole process Gritting her teeth in pain, when the doctor poured the whole bottle of disinfectant up again, she finally couldn’t help but let out a growl from the depths of her throat.

It was that kind of suppressed pain mixed with crying voice, Jian Changnian stood outside the door, trembling with her.

Finally, the long dressing change and bandaging was finally over. Just when Jian Changnian thought she could breathe a sigh of relief, the doctor took out a thumb-thick needle and stuck it into her knee. Pale red effusion in needle tube.

The doctor put it on the tray and picked up a new one.

Jian Changnian couldn’t bear to watch anymore, covered her mouth, with red eyes, ran to the depths of the corridor, where she couldn’t hear or see, bent down, and burst into tears.

When she packed up her emotions and went back to the ward, Xie Shi’an’s side was also over. The nurse auntie washed her hands, face and feet, turned around and took the basin to pour water, and the towel fell on the floor.

Xie Shi’an sat in a wheelchair, looked at it, wanted to pick it up, and stretched his arms to reach it, but couldn’t reach it after trying several times.

Beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and when she gritted her teeth and bent down again, one hand picked it up for her.

“Give.”

She looked along her wrist, feeling shocked in her heart, but she said calmly on her face.

“How did you come?”

As if just talking about today’s weather.

Jian Changnian thought that she couldn’t do what she did. Looking at her, she was torn apart by the pain, and took a step forward: “Shi’an, why are you avoiding me? I can take care of you—”

The nurse came out of the bathroom with the basin in his hand, and froze in place.

Xie Shi’an glanced at her: “You go out first.”

When the person left, she turned her face away and said.

“I don’t need anyone to take care of me.”

The corners of her eyes were still red, and Jian Changnian, who had just witnessed everything, could no longer keep calm, and said anxiously.

“Even if it’s you…”

After that singles match, Xie Shi’an never talked to her again, she paused for a while before speaking.

“You still have a grudge against me, but you are hurt like this, there must be a caring person to take care of you!”

Xie Shi’an curled his lips mockingly, and looked up at her.

“Why do you think you are the caring person? Stop being so sentimental.”

“I…” Jian Changnian licked her lips, knelt down to look at her at the same level, tried to hold her hand, and her tone softened.

“I know that I did something wrong during the game that day, but I really can’t watch you get hurt and remain indifferent. The Grand Slam is your long-cherished wish for many years. I watched you come all the way and suffered so much. How can I bear to…”

When she said this, her eyes were red, and she squeezed her hand into her palm bit by bit.

“Smash your dreams with your own hands.”

The redness in the corners of Xie Shi’an’s eyes became more and more conspicuous, his eyes were lowered, his eyelashes were trembling, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.

She rarely resisted, does it mean that there is a sliver of hope, Jian Changnian had imagined thousands of ways of confession, subtle, romantic, gentle, passionate, but they couldn’t resist the heat in her heart at this moment, so she simply said the words spread out.

“This is too cruel for me. I am not a qualified athlete. I have abandoned the professional ethics I have always believed in. I am sorry for the audience and fans, and I am even more sorry for Coach Yan and Coach Wan.”

“But Shi’an, I…”

When she was saying this, a voice in Xie Shi’an’s heart kept shouting:

enough! do not talk! As long as you don’t say that sentence, we can still lie to each other, just friends.

There is still room for change in everything.

When it really came to this moment, her eyes were really red, and she pushed her away: “Shut up! If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be what I am now. If it weren’t for you, how could I be pushed to the forefront , Don’t even dare to open the phone!”

“Yes, you are amazing. Not only has your technology improved, but your people are more scheming than before. But when you reported Gao Jian, did you ever think that I just want to live a peaceful life!”

Xie Shi’an pushed hard in desperation, and hit her shoulder, causing a sharp pain.

She immediately fell to the ground, looking at Xie Shi’an in front of her, with red eyes, panting and roaring like a trapped animal.

She felt that the knife should not have been stabbed in the shoulder, but in the heart, otherwise why would the chest hurt so much.

She was out of breath in pain and was dying.

“Shi’an, Shi’an…” She still got up, walked to her side step by step, squatted down, looked into her eyes, held her shoulders, tried to explain with red eyes, but was incoherent.

“I’m not…I’m not…I’m sorry…I just…just want Gao Jian to pay the price…”

“I don’t know if they will… You, can you forgive me? There will be no next time. I promise to discuss everything with you in the future, and I will never be impulsive again.”

“Didn’t you say in the previous interview that you would not form a doubles partner with anyone except me? Me too, when you recover from your injury, we will come back and play together, just like before…”

After she said so much, Xie Shi’an just looked at her coldly and pushed her hand away.

“Jian Changnian, people change. I don’t want to have a partner who will give up at any time on the field, and I can’t pretend that these things never happened.”

“You go, just pretend that we… never knew each other.”

She said these words very softly, even her voice was trembling, but to Jian Changnian’s ears, it was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, which completely sentenced her unspoken love to death.

She was in a daze all the way, and she didn’t know how she got back to the training base.

Lu Xiaoting got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. Her roommate was lying by the window, looking down. It was pouring rain and the wind was blowing.

She rubbed her eyes: “What are you looking at?”

“It looks like someone is running in the playground.”

“It’s raining so much, you must be crazy.”

She leaned over to take a closer look, and found that this “crazy” was simply Jian Changnian, and most of the drowsiness disappeared immediately.

“When did she come back?”

The roommate looked blank.

“I don’t know. I just got up and closed the window to see it. It must have been a while.”

Under the darkness of night, it was stormy.

Her figure was swaying, running desperately around the entire playground.

Lu Xiaoting gritted her teeth, picked up her umbrella and went downstairs.

“I’ll go down.”

The auntie nurse has been taking care of her for a while, and she feels sorry for her alone in the hospital for such a major operation, without even an accompanying person around her, but Xie Shi’an is also strong, even if it hurts a lot when changing the dressing, she just bites He gritted his teeth a few times.

She had never seen her cry like this before.

Since the girl left just now, she has been sitting in a wheelchair, tears falling like broken beads, biting her lips and crying silently, even she didn’t even notice when she came in.

The nurse’s aunt poured a glass of warm water into her palm.

“My child, I’m already gone. Look forward to everything. I’ll be outside. Call me if you need anything.”

The nurse aunt also left after she finished speaking, and gently closed the door for her. The moment she closed the door, Xie Shi’an bent down deeply, and there was a depressing and painful sound like a small animal in the room. whimper.

“Jian Changnian, don’t run away!” Lu Xiaoting followed her, step by step, holding an umbrella for her, the raindrops were too heavy, and soon she was drowned too.

Jian Changnian didn’t realize it, she kept walking, she didn’t know whether it was rain or tears on her face, her eyes were as silent as dead ashes.

Lu Xiaoting pulled her angrily.

“Enough! Don’t run away! Isn’t it just being dumped?! If I knew you were like this, I shouldn’t have told you!”

Jian Changnian has been running on the playground since she came back from the hospital, lap after lap, she can only run forward, keep running forward, let exhaustion occupy her body and brain, she dare not stop, as long as she stops When I come down, I will think of Xie Shi’an, and what she just said to me.

She was out of her mind, caught off guard and pulled again, fell to the ground all of a sudden, and got up again with red eyes.

Lu Xiaoting followed behind. After a few laps under such heavy rain, she was already exhausted. She was panting heavily with her hands on her knees. Just as she was about to go to help her, she suddenly raised her head.

Jian Changnian rushed straight towards the open-air swimming pool at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

Before she could scream, she only saw a splash of water, and when she rushed to the edge of the pool, her head was no longer visible.

After that night, Jian Changnian was ill for a long time. She ran around the playground for half a night and jumped into the swimming pool on a stormy night, which became a “glorious deed” of the entire training base.

When Wan Jing came to see her in the hospital, Xu was afraid of people and couldn’t think about it. He did something stupid, but he didn’t scold her.

On the contrary, Jian Changnian saw his hesitant expression, smiled and spoke.

“Don’t worry, I accept the team’s arrangement and I won’t look for her again.”

She used to be happy when she was happy, and unhappy when she was unhappy. She was a very frank and open-minded person, but now the smile just floated on her face, like a mask. grown up.

Wan Jing didn’t know whether it was joy or sorrow, he sighed, and put the nutrition in his hand on the bedside for her.

“Heal well and strive to return to the team as soon as possible.”

“Eh.”

Jian Chang recovered from illness and returned to the team the next day, there was a training match.

In the locker room.

Lu Xiaoting watched her take off the bracelet on her wrist. She remembered that it was a birthday present from Xie Shi’an, and Jian Changnian had been showing it off to them for a long time.

For so many years, she has never taken off this bracelet during the competition, and it has long been her amulet and lucky object just like the photo of Coach Yan.

“You… have you really decided to let her go?”

Jian Changnian stared at this bracelet for a long time, and finally chose to put it deep in the closet.

“You said that day, didn’t you just get dumped? As for this, in fact, I really haven’t talked with her, and I haven’t even been able to say a word of liking.”

“Isn’t there a hot question on the Internet recently? What’s more regrettable, what’s more regrettable than what you never got or what you got and lost.”

“I thought about it, but I didn’t find the answer to the question. It’s also a pity. Why should we compete?”

The thing that had been worn for several years was suddenly taken off, Xu felt unaccustomed to the empty wrist, Jian Changnian took another wristband and put it on his hand, turned around and smiled at her.

“Let’s go, the game has begun.”

＊＊＊

Jian Changnian has been discharged from the hospital to resume competition training, and the results of the IBF’s treatment of Gao Jian and Cui Huixi have also come out. Gao Jian was not only banned for life, but also arrested and imprisoned for two years.

But Cui Huixi was only suspended for five years because of his nationality and various other reasons, and escaped.

Although Jian Changnian was very dissatisfied with the result of such a handling, she did not want to push Xie Shi’an to the forefront, so let’s just say that this matter has come to an end.

She was a bit introverted when she first joined the Binhai provincial team. After spending many years by Xie Shi’an’s side, she gradually became cheerful and warmed her up like a little sun.

After this incident, overnight, he returned to his original form, even more restrained than before, preferring to be alone, and the smile on his face became less.

Xie Shi’an has been living in the hospital, and the recovery process is more difficult and longer than she imagined. The rejection of the artificial knee, the anti-infection after the operation, and the healing of the wound, from only being able to sit in a wheelchair to being able to lean on Walk on crutches, winter has arrived.

The national competition is about to start. This is the first time she has been absent since her debut, and she can only sit in front of the TV and watch the game.

Jian Changnian led the Binhai Provincial Team to stand out among the 34 teams in the country, won the championship with 17 consecutive victories, and also won the individual singles gold medal.

After the game, if a reporter went to interview her, if there was her, another person’s name would definitely be mentioned.

“I heard that player Xie Shi’an is too seriously injured and can no longer play. Is this news true?”

“Will she choose to retire?”

“Contestant Xie Shi’an hasn’t appeared in public for a long time, have you seen her recently?”

“Are you satisfied with the results of Gao Jian’s treatment?”

“What is the relationship between you and player Xie Shi’an?”

…

Hearing this, Xie Shi’an picked up the remote control and turned off the TV with a bang.

During the Chinese New Year this year, she still did not go home, nor did she receive the familiar “Happy New Year”.

Only Zhou Mu called her.

“Are you really…don’t want to see her again? Even if you can’t…we’ve been friends for so many years.”

It’s not that she doesn’t want to, but she can’t. She is in the rising period and has a bright future. How can I delay her at this time.

Xie Shi’an was silent for a while.

“No, there’s no need to think about it in vain.”

Zhou Mu sighed: “Okay then, this is a matter between you after all, so I won’t say anything more.”

When she was about to hang up the phone, Xie Shi’an hesitated again, and said one more sentence: “Is she…by your side?”

Zhou Mu glanced at Jian Changnian who was drunk next to him.

“Well, I drank too much and just fell asleep.”

Xie Shi’an knew that she used to be a teetotaler, to the extent that even a sip of fruit wine would get on her face, and her heart throbbed.

“No… all right?”

“No, I’m at home.”

“Although it’s Chinese New Year, the village must be lively, but… she didn’t drink much before. You… persuade her to drink less. I have something else to do, so let’s do it first.”

Xie Shi’an hesitated, and it took him a long time to finish a complete sentence. Perhaps he was afraid that Zhou Mu would ask her why he didn’t tell her himself, so he hung up the phone before waiting for anyone to answer.

When the fireworks took off outside the window, Xie Shi’an opened the disposable chopsticks and was about to eat a boxed lunch.

There was a knock on the door of the ward.

Leaning on crutches, she limped over and opened the door. It was Wan Jing, carrying a lunch box.

“The dumplings my wife just made are still warm, try them.”

Xie Shi’an’s eyes became hot.

“You are still here so late.”

Wan Jing gave her the takeaway box and took it aside.

“Hey, it’s not far anyway, just a few steps away.”

“Have you eaten, did you eat a piece?”

Although he had eaten at home, it was really distressing for Xie Shi’an to stay alone in the hospital during the New Year’s Eve.

Wan Jing complied and sat down.

“Okay, then I’ll save a few bites.”

The two talked while eating.

Wan Jing looked around the room, it was deserted.

“What about your nurse, why doesn’t he see anyone? Is it because he didn’t take good care of him? If it doesn’t work, I’ll find another one for you tomorrow…”

“Very good. During the Chinese New Year, I let her go home.”

“Then can you do it here alone?”

“Yes, I can already walk on the ground.”

When the clock struck zero o’clock, Wan Jing looked at her face, put down his chopsticks, hesitated to speak, and finally said.

“Shi’an, it’s a new beginning after the Chinese New Year, have you ever thought about…”

Xie Shi’an knew what he wanted to say.

“Coach Wan, I want to try again, one last time.”
