The days passed day by day during the training, and Wangfu also stayed in the Binhai provincial team. When he could climb out of the cardboard box, walk on his short legs, and run behind Xie Shi'an, the trials also started.

All the Binhai provincial team signed up, but Xie Shi'an was the only one who could break through the siege.

With a complete victory, the boy defeated players from all over the country and won this precious place in the main match.

The only remaining substitute seat will be announced in this afternoon's game.

The boy looked at the lottery result in his hand with a complicated expression.

Qiao Yuchu VS Jian Changnian.

Time seems to have returned to last winter.

It's just that she was the one who took the initiative to find Qiao Yuchu before the game.

"Sister Yuchu..." She looked puzzled.

"How about I go talk to the referee about re-drawing lots?"

Qiao Yuchu touched her head.

"You are stupid, this is playing in the national team, not in our training base, the referee will not listen to you."

"But..." Jian Changnian bit her lip.

"I don't want a civil war."

Qiao Yuchu's hand fell on her shoulder, looked into her eyes, and said seriously.

"The moment the game whistle blew, I was no longer your teammate. How I played in the training camp before, I will play now. Don't forget, you once told me that going all out is the biggest thing against the opponent. respect."

As soon as she finished speaking, the referee blew his whistle.

"No. 058 Qiao Yuchu, No. 075 Jian Changnian, get ready!"

Xie Shi'an's match has come to an end, today is her rest day, but she still came to the arena.

The teenager walked in wearing loose sportswear and carrying a ball bag, and took a seat in the auditorium.

Someone was already sitting next to her.

Yin Jiayi is wearing a peaked cap.

"You come to the game too."

Xie Shi'an gave a faint "hmm".

Yin Jiayi was in high spirits.

"It's a civil war between your Coastal Province team. Why don't you guess who will win?"

Xie Shi'an was silent, his eyes gradually deepened.

If the time was still stuck in the winter of last year, then she would definitely say that it was Qiao Yu who won first, but now...

The referee blows his whistle and raises his hand.

"In the first game, No. 075 Jian Changnian won 17:21."

Jian Changnian won the first game, but he was not as happy as he imagined. Instead, he sat back in the rest area and drank half a bottle of water in one go.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat.

Yan Xinyuan couldn't guide any of them, and that would be extremely unfair to the other person.

The old man looked left and right, picked up the towel and walked to Qiao Yuchu's side.

"Here, wipe off your sweat and play well in the next game."

"Thank you, Coach Yan."

Qiao Yuchu took it over, forced a smile, and then cheered up and went on stage.

Yin Jiayi watched the situation off the field.

"She's improving so fast."

Xie Shi'an knew who she was talking about.

For some reason, she felt a little bored in her heart, and she didn't want to sit here anymore, facing this **** match that tore apart all reality.

The boy got up and walked out.

The referee blew his whistle and raised the red card at the same time.

"No. 075, Jian Changnian, violated the rules for the second serve, and No. 058 will add one point, and another red card will be fined, and the qualification for the game will be disqualified immediately."

The referee's cold voice was resounding.

The score on the scoreboard has reached 15:18

Jian Changnian is temporarily ahead.

Qiao Yuchu gritted her teeth, her eyes were slightly red.

"Jian Changnian, what are you doing! If you don't hit me hard, who is right?"

She has always been gentle and gentle, even if she speaks loudly, let alone yelling at her.

The young man panicked all of a sudden, speechless.

"I... Miss Yuchu..."

This opportunity is too important for Qiao Yuchu. The World Championships are held every two years. She is still young, but Qiao Yuchu is already 26 years old.

"Don't call me sister! There are only opponents on the field!"

Jian Changnian looked into her eyes with a sore nose.

Qiao Yuchu nodded, and solemnly called her again.

"Chang Nian, I want to fight with you in an upright manner."

Even if she loses, she will lose standing up.

The young man sniffed, gripped the racket again, and suddenly there was a fighting spirit in his eyes, and his whole state was obviously different from just now.

She nodded slowly but solemnly.

"it is good."

Only then did a smile appear on Qiao Yuchu's face.

The game starts again.

Xie Shi'an has already walked out of the arena.

Yin Jiayi also came out.

"Do you know? I watched every game of your trials, and you shaved your head 2-0, which is much more neat than in the national competition. Sometimes I feel lucky. Fortunately, this time we are teammates instead of opponents. "

Xie Shi'an glanced over lightly.

"It's not necessarily true. If you are in the same group, I won't be merciful."

"Ah, no matter what, at least the Chinese team has guaranteed gold medals in both the team competition and individual events."

Yin Jiayi's expression was also a little dark. After Jiang Yunli retired, there were not many people who could be called great responsibilities in the national team. She became the captain naturally, and some responsibilities that must be shouldered still had to be picked up.

"After all... this year's opponent is also very strong."

A narrow smile floated on the corner of the boy's lips.

"You seem to be looking forward to this year's World Championships."

For some reason, Yin Jiayi choked for a moment, her expression slightly unnatural, but she quickly adjusted and reached out her hand.

"The world-class top players gathered together, which professional player would not look forward to it, no matter what—"

"You are welcome to join us."

***

2:0 is not 2:1 lost the game.

Qiao Yuchu failed to win even one round in her hands, and this was on the premise that Jian Changnian made frequent mistakes and was fined two red cards.

As soon as the game was over, she walked over to try to comfort her.

Qiao Yuchu smiled, her expression normal.

"It's finally over, you can take a good rest for a few days."

Jian Changnian's throat was blocked and she couldn't speak a word.

Yan Xinyuan came over and patted her on the shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's have dinner together tonight."

Qiao Yu nodded at the beginning.

"Coach Yan, you go first, I'm going to the bathroom."

"Miss Yuchu, you and I..."

Jian Changnian chased after a few steps, but was grabbed by the arm.

Yan Xinyuan shook his head.

"Leave her alone for a while."

Qiao Yuchu finished her toilet and was about to go out of the cubicle when suddenly there was the sound of flushing water outside. Several people were laughing and joking. The voices sound familiar, and they should be opponents who have played together.

"Did you watch the match just now? Qiao Yuchu actually lost to a rookie player from his own team. It would be too embarrassing to spread the word."

"I saw it during the national competition. Our Guangxi team and their Binhai Province team are in the same competition area. If Xie Shi'an is not there, how can they reach the finals?"

"Let's see, let alone Xie Shi'an, even if the world champion comes, they can't keep her away. Look at them, how bad their doubles performance is, and they didn't make it to the semi-finals in the trials. Let's look at Xie Shi'an again." I went to singles alone, and directly got a spot in the main match with zero seals against all opponents."

"This kind of partner will only slow you down, why don't you hurry up and run away!"

Several people were laughing and joking again.

"Then who knows, have you finished washing? Let's go for a walk and have dinner."

Qiao Yuchu's hand slipped from the doorknob. She wanted to persuade herself not to pay attention to these gossip, but she just bent her lips, and tears rolled down her face.

There was a dead silence in the bathroom again.

She came out of the compartment in a daze, turned on the faucet, and kept splashing water on her face.

After Xie Shi'an said goodbye to Yin Jiayi, she waited at the door when she heard Coach Yan say that she had gone to the bathroom.

The time of two songs passed, and she finally came out.

Xie Shi'an took off his earphones and walked over.

Qiao Yuchu's face was wet, and there were drops of water on her eyelashes.

She wiped her face nonchalantly.

"Oh, it's okay, it's too hot, wash your face."

Xie Shi'an took out a tissue from his backpack and handed it over.

"Give."

"Thank you." Seeing her at the beginning, Qiao Yu remembered what those people said just now. She didn't know how long she had been waiting here, and how much she had listened to, so she asked casually.

"Waiting for a long time?"

Xie Shi'an shook his head.

"Just came here for a while, Coach Yan said let's go to a dinner party, so I came to call you."

Qiao Yuchu smiled wryly, and now she is not in the mood to eat at all.

"You guys go, I want to go back and rest first."

"Yuchu!" The young man chased her a few steps and called to stop her.

"Is it because of... the competition?"

Qiao Yuchu managed to pull herself together and smiled, but everyone could see the sadness hidden under her smile.

"No, it's normal to win or lose."

"It doesn't matter if you don't get selected this time. After the World Championships are over, the national team should recruit new ones. If you can be selected by then, you can take it for granted..."

Before Xie Shi'an finished speaking, Qiao Yuchu turned her head abruptly. She felt aggrieved and sad, and the words she blurted out were a bit sharp.

"Do you think that everyone is like you, and if they don't want to join the national team, they keep urging and asking for invitations, and even the contract is drawn up for you?"

The boy lowered his eyes, feeling a little hurt.

"That's not what I mean, I mean..."

Her words were interrupted again.

Qiao Yuchu turned around and continued walking.

"No, I'm really fine, prepare for your singles."

When facing his sweetheart, the young man has never been good at words, nor is he good at keeping her, watching her leaving back.

For the first time, Xie Shi'an felt powerless in his heart.

***

Qiao Yuchu returned to the room, and just after taking a shower and climbing into bed, the screen of the mobile phone on the bedside table lit up.

She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Jin Shunqi.

"Are you coming to Beijing again?"

She thought for a while and typed.

"how do you know?"

"I have been following your circle of friends (thankfully it has not been deleted."

Qiao Yuchu looked at the words in parentheses and couldn't hold back the corners of her lips. She remembered that when she first arrived in Beijing three days ago, she sent a photo with the caption: Revisit the old place.

When she was about to type, Jin Shunqi sent a voice.

"How about it, do you want to meet my old friend again?"

***

at the dinner table.

The mutton soup pot was steaming, but Jian Changnian and Xie Shi'an were both preoccupied and unable to eat.

In the middle of the meal, Wan Jing called, saying that he had something to discuss with him, and called Yan Xinyuan away. Only the two of them were left in the box, and the atmosphere became even more gloomy.

Jian Changnian put a piece of mutton into the bowl, it was tasteless.

"Sister Yuchu refuses to come to the dinner, are you still angry with me?"

Xie Shi'an was also uncomfortable, and said in a lukewarm manner.

"Aren't you very happy when you beat someone 2:0?"

Jian Changnian put down her chopsticks.

"What do you mean, do you mean that I beat her 2-0 on purpose?"

"You know what you think in your heart."

In order to get the ball, she was given two red cards by the referee, and she was almost disqualified from the competition. Thinking of this, Jian Changnian felt aggrieved and angry, and an unknown fire surged up.

"Xie Shi'an! Speak clearly! I want to draw her?! I'd rather fight you than fight against Sister Yuchu!"

"You don't want to? I don't understand, even if it's a small game, she won't feel so uncomfortable!"

"It seems that I don't feel bad. I won, do I feel better?! Do you know how it feels to eliminate your own teammate?! I treat her like my own sister!"

"If you treat her like your own sister, you won't beat her 2-0. Do you know how many people are waiting to see her jokes when she loses? She still has injuries on her wrists. This is her first time. Do you know how important it is to her to reach the finals of the World Championships, even if it's just a substitute?!"

When she said this, Jian Changnian's eyes turned red, and she stood up suddenly, because the movement was too large, she overturned the bowls and chopsticks, and the broken porcelain was everywhere.

"Isn't that important to me?! It's my first time to reach the finals of the trials! I've received two red cards, what else do you think about me, you'll only be happy if you see me disqualified yes?!"

The air froze for a second or two.

Seeing her tears rolling in her eyes, Xie Shi'an was startled, closed his eyes, and softened his tone.

"I didn't mean that, you are still young, but she..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted coldly.

"That's enough, Xie Shi'an, we are all friends, so we have to come first, first served, right? Ask yourself, is there even half a word of what you said just now that you are happy that I won the game?"

"You didn't! You only care about Miss Yuchu's feelings, I don't want to see you anymore!"

Jian Changnian sniffed, cried so hard, picked up her bag, turned around and rushed out the door.

When Xie Shi'an came back to his senses and chased him out, there was no one in the corridor.
