The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine

After the singles match, the whole team could finally take a breather. Yan Xinyuan decided to take them out for dinner to celebrate. The group went to the famous Yangxie Restaurant in Beijing.

This kind of boiling hot pot is suitable for eating in winter. The fragrant lamb bones are full of soup, and one sip will make people feel satisfied from the bottom of their hearts.

Everyone feasted, and the room was full of laughter.

Xie Shi'an's cell phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number, she picked it up: "Hello?"

"It's me, Dad." A familiar voice came from the receiver.

Xie Shi'an's face turned cold, he got up and walked out.

"I have nothing to say to you."

The man laughed awkwardly.

"Don't hang up, I'm just watching the news, did I see you win the championship? You are in Beijing, far away, and Dad can't go to the scene to watch you play, so I can only make a phone call to congratulate you."

Xie Shi'an was silent for a long time.

The only silence in the corridor was the sound of the wind.

"Didn't you disagree with me playing professional?"

"Hey, that's all in the past. When your grandfather took you to play, dad thought you were just playing for fun. Who knows that your grades are so good now, my daughter really looks good on me."

Xie Shi'an's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"So, you are short of money again?"

The man cleared his throat and coughed twice.

"It's not a shortage, it's just that I lost some money in business with someone, and the bank is pressing hard. Don't you have the prize money for the game? First lend me 20,000, and I will return it to you when the business is profitable."

"Don't worry, this time it must be a serious business. You, just wait for Dad and me to get rich, not to mention 20,000, but 2 million. As long as you ask, Dad will give it to you, and you will be that... the princess of the chaebol. "

When Xie Shi'an heard this, he really laughed out loud. Parents of other people, whose children have improved in their careers, the first thing to do is to praise and praise them. No matter how hard the children are struggling outside, they will care about her life Is it good or not, is it warm or not?

Only him, the first thing is to call himself to ask for money.

The emotions that had been suppressed for decades gushed out at this moment, Xie Shi'an roared with red eyes.

"Xie Bin, you have endless things! After grandpa passed away, you took away all his inheritance. Only Grandpa Fang had the foresight to write it under my name. I asked a lawyer to notarize it. You can't take it away, and you don't want to. Yes, because it’s too far away, so there’s no appreciation value!”

"In addition to the inheritance, there are all his works! You have sold all of them, can't you fill your bottomless pit?!"

"In these years, you ate, drank, prostituted, gambled, borrowed usury, spent time and money, did you control me? Did you control me, even for a day?! You spend money on your girlfriends, buy them cars, bags and luxury goods, you Have you ever spent a penny on me?!"

"I...Shi'an, listen to what Dad said..." The man smiled awkwardly, and wanted to explain something.

She hung up the phone decisively.

"Don't call me anymore. I will change my number. I won't go back to live in the house in Jiangcheng City. Also, our father-daughter relationship ends here. I don't have a father like you."

After Xie Shi'an hung up the phone, he gritted his teeth, clutched the phone tightly, and lay down on the railing, throwing away the urge to throw it out.

"Pick up..."

Someone behind her softly called her name.

Xie Shi'an quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and turned around: "I'm fine..."

Before she finished speaking, Qiao Yuchu patted her head and said softly, "The champion can't cry, let the past go."

Xie Shi'an's eyes became hot, he sniffed, and almost burst into tears.

"Ok."

"If he comes to harass you again, I will protect you."

That's what she said before, and then she really sheltered her from the wind and rain like a big tree, like a day for decades.

Even though she was just a child at that time.

Xie Shi'an's tears swirled in his eyes, trying not to let them fall, and choked up: "Okay."

Her teammates also stood up when they heard the movement.

Jian Changnian: "There is also me."

"Yes, and us."

"If he dares to go to the training base to look for you, we will beat him to the ground."

Yan Xinyuan also came over and put his arms around her shoulders.

"Let's go, eat first, the food is getting cold."

On the return bus, Qiao Yuchu gently covered the sleeping Xie Shi'an with her coat, got up, and sat in the empty seat opposite Yan Xinyuan.

"Coach Yan."

Beijing was very congested at night, and the carriage was rickety. Yan Xinyuan didn't take a break, but watched the game video under the dim light, and he still held a stack of reports in his hand.

Qiao Yu knew at the beginning that it was the shortlist for the team competition that was about to be submitted to the competition organizing committee.

"What's wrong?" Yan Xinyuan took off his glasses and looked at her.

"I want to be on the big list." Qiao Yuchu looked down at the gauze wrapped in her hand, and still confessed everything.

"I know you will definitely arrange a substitute just in case, but I want to be on the big list."

She repeated it softly but firmly.

Yan Xinyuan put his glasses on his lap and looked at her seriously.

"Is it because of Shi'an?"

"Yes, it's not entirely true. It's too hard for her alone, and Jiang Yunli's match also made me regain my confidence. I thought before that I would stop fighting after this match, but Jiang Yunli I can fight until the age of forty-five, I don’t think I have reached the end of my life, if that day really comes, I will have time to retire.”

Seeing her regain confidence, Yan Xinyuan was also very pleased.

"I never thought that there are still three days before the team competition before you will be removed from the big list, because this time there will be teams from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan directly advancing to the finals, and it will take more time for us to actually play the game." A little longer."

"During this period, you still have to follow the doctor's advice and recover well. As for whether you can play in the end, it also depends on your physical condition. I want to pick her up, and I don't just want to finish this game with you, but many, many games. Contest."

A grateful smile overflowed Qiao Yuchu's face, and his eyes were a little hot.

"Okay, I see, thank you, Coach Yan."

"Hey, why don't you thank me? I'm already my age, and I don't have any children. I treat you all as my own children. I'm satisfied to see you happy and healthy."

"Of course, it would be even better if he could bring out a few world champions before retirement."

Jian Changnian fell asleep in the back row, and vaguely heard someone talking, she sat up and lay down on the front seat.

"World champion? Why isn't it a grand slam?"

Yan Xinyuan looked back at her.

"Go, go, do you know how difficult a Grand Slam is?"

Qiao Yuchu also burst out laughing.

"Timing, luck, and excellent strength are all indispensable. Looking at the history of world badminton, there are not many athletes who have won a Grand Slam."

Jian Chang thought for a while: "Well, I guess it's over, but Shi'an is so strong, it's definitely possible, maybe before you retire, I'll bring you back the Grand Slam trophy."

Yan Xinyuan smiled from ear to ear.

"That's a good relationship. I've also been addicted to being a champion coach. You can also learn from others. If you practice with each other every day, you won't see any improvement."

Jian Changnian muttered: "I was beaten passively, and it's not like you don't know Coach Yan..."

Qiao Yuchu took a look outside. The hospital was about to arrive. She said softly, "Then I'll go back to the hospital first."

Jian Changnian waved goodbye to her: "Goodbye, Miss Yuchu."

"If Shi'an wakes up, just say I'm leaving first, and I will definitely be back before the game."

At first glance, Qiao Yu saw that she was still asleep, so she left without taking her coat.

＊＊＊

Returning to the training base of the Beijing team and walking into the familiar arena, Jin Nanzhi tapped and turned on the light on the wall.

Memories came flooding in.

A year ago, she came here following in the footsteps of another person, and challenged her again with the spirit of not admitting defeat.

Although Yin Jiayi was already in the national team at that time, she would occasionally be invited by the coach to give lessons to these newcomers.

They met again in a foreign country, but the result of the game was no different from that of the training camp in South Korea.

She was taken away by 2:0, and the loss was even worse than today. The young man was unwilling to show weakness, and whenever he was free, he would go to the national team to pester Yin Jiayi to play with her.

The more times I went, the two of them also had more intersections, or bonds, besides playing basketball.

She remembered Yin Jiayi's favorite kimchi during the training camp in South Korea, and specially entrusted her mother to mail it all the way.

Yin Jiayi would also touch her head to comfort her when she lost the game and cried.

After a long time, even Yin Jiayi's teammates started booing.

"Jiayi, Nanzhi is so annoying, if you find a boyfriend in the future, what will you do?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I have no plans to fall in love at all, and although she is a Korean aid, she is now in the Beijing team and is our teammate. Competitive sports have no borders, and it's okay to teach."

Jin Nanzhi rushed in with her favorite kimchi sent by her mother from all the way.

"Yin Jiayi—"

Yin Jiayi walked past her with a racket expressionless, without even looking at her.

"I want to train, you don't come here again."

Since then, Yin Jiayi no longer went to the Beijing team as a guest, and seldom stayed in the national team for training. Instead, she went to compete around the world. Occasionally, she would only go back to her home in Hangzhou to rest.

The contact information of the two people was also deleted and added, added and deleted, and she was the one who was blocked every time, and she was the one who took the initiative to add it back.

At the beginning, Jin Nanzhi would go crazy with her on social software, but most of that person would not reply, even if he replied to the message, it would only be a few periods or a helpless expression.

It's like punching cotton with no way to start.

Just like that, Yin Jiayi has been avoiding her for a long time.

Until this night, among the overwhelming negative public opinion about her, only Yin Jiayi rarely took the initiative to greet her.

"Is the knee injury okay? Remember to see the team doctor."

"Don't care too much about netizens' comments, just do your best."

Jin Nanzhi looked at the phone screen for a long time, but still failed to type a word.

She got up, walked round and round around the white boundary line of the field, touched the badminton net lightly with her fingers, and closed her eyes, as if she could still hear the roar of the audience in the stands, the shock of the daytime game. The throbbing of the heart came to the heart again.

She suddenly seemed to understand a little bit why she couldn't beat Yin Jiayi and Xie Shi'an.

Because they are purer than her, and they love this stage without distraction.

"Ding dong—" the phone rang again.

A message in Korean popped up, it was an invitation from the head coach of the South Korean national team.

"How about it, have you thought it through? Do you want to return to the national team to prepare for the World Championships next spring?"

The other party seemed to be afraid that she would refuse, so he quickly flicked another one.

"You have the experience of studying in China, and we will also equip you with the best coaching staff and a good salary. Come on, come back to your hometown, and let's create your era together."

Since she won the women's singles championship in the Korean College League, this is not the first time that the national team has thrown an olive branch.

Ever since she was a child, she has learned everything very quickly, and her life has been like a hang-up. She has been skipping grades since elementary school. She joined the Seoul Badminton Youth Team at the age of twelve, won the national championship at the age of fourteen, and entered the university at the age of fifteen. Exemption admission notice, when she was sixteen years old, she encountered the biggest setback in her life, Yin Jiayi.

That year, the World Badminton Super Tournament was held in Seoul.

Yin Jiayi, the top seeded player of the Chinese team, also came to South Korea to prepare for the game. They met for the first time in the Seoul team's stadium.

As the host, the local team invited the Chinese team to play a warm-up match with them. Yin Jiayi played against Jin Nanzhi. In just one round, the girl's pride was shattered, and she encountered Waterloo for the first time in her career.

After that, she rejected the invitation of the national team, and also tried her best to resist the resistance from her family, and went to China to study alone.

Sometimes she doesn't know whether she is chasing that figure, or an illusory dream?

However, there is one thing she can confirm now.

Jin Nanzhi opened the dialog box and typed:

"I will go back, but not now, I still have a game to play in China."

＊＊＊

the next day.

The atmosphere in the training room of the Beijing team was clearly depressed.

A teammate complained: "What else is there to play? Whether it's a team match or singles and doubles, isn't it just us? Xie Shi'an of the Binhai Provincial Team is so good that even Nan Zhi lost. I think this team Let's hang up too."

"Speaking of which, is Nam Ji going back to Korea soon? I remember her one-year contract is about to expire."

"Regardless of whether the contract expires or not, she will go back sooner or later. It's just that we have lost another combat power since she left."

"And I saw how frustrated she was when she lost the game yesterday. It's not certain whether she will come to participate in the team competition."

"What time is it? If you haven't come to training, it's probably suspended."

As soon as the voices of several people fell, the door of the arena was pushed open.

Jin Nanzhi appeared at the door with his bag on his back.

The sun shone on her, and the girl said loudly: "Everyone, cheer up, you can't stop training just because I'm not here, right?"

Everyone was surprised and delighted: "Nan Zhi, you are back, are you not leaving? You will play the team competition with us, right?"

"And your hair..."

Everyone opened their mouths wide in surprise, and could stuff an entire egg.

Jin Nanzhi smiled, touched his short hair, didn't wear earrings, just stood here in a simple sportswear.

"It's dyed back, the coach is right, professional players still have to look like professional players."

She stretched out her hand and looked at her teammates with a smile on her lips.

"Come on, everyone, this is our Beijing team's last game this year, and it's also my last game in China. Come on, come back with a team championship!"

The teammates stood up one after another and surrounded her, with hope shining in their eyes, and they folded their hands together.

"The Beijing team—"

"come on, come on, come on!"
