After a round of greetings, the members of the Martial Arts Club returned to the locker room joyfully.
Shu Rui, leading the team, followed them in with a smile. "Just do what you need to do. Just pretend that we don't exist."
After applying, she got Geezer Shi's permission to enter the locker room for the next few matches and shoot some material to enrich the details of the "documentary".
Hearing her words, everyone looked at each other and secretly complained, "We are not exhibitionists. How can we act as usual in front of the camera?" Especially Lou Cheng, he was even more depressed. "Well, the good thing of applying ointment for my fairy is gone!"
He didn't want to take advantage of her. After all, there were many unfamiliar junior brothers and sisters in the locker room. It would be awkward to be too close to Yan Zheke. He just wanted to treat it as a warm and sweet daily routine. However, a group of uninvited guests came and he had to do his own thing.
Yan Zheke looked at him subconsciously and seemed to notice something. She rolled her eyes, bit her lips, turned her head, and said in a low voice, "I'm in a good mood. Let's go for a walk tonight."
"Uh, did Ke misunderstand something?" "Well, it's a good misunderstanding!" A smile appeared on Lou Cheng's face as he agreed.
"Okay!"
…
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The wind by the lake was cool.
Yan Zheke put on her boyfriend's coat and held his forearm. She walked slowly on the path with faint sounds of water. She raised her head slightly and said with excitement and longing,
"Cheng, what do you think we can do in this martial arts competition?"
Her hair was slightly messy, her face was bright red, her pink lips were moist and glossy, and her eyes were bright and watery.
Lou Cheng put one hand in his pocket and felt refreshed. He thought for a while and said with a smile,
"I'm only telling you. I won't tell anyone else. Otherwise, I'll be laughed at. My goal is to be the champion, the national champion!"
"What a coincidence! Me too!" Yan Zheke replied with a smile and a look of surprise in her eyes. She raised her voice at the end.
"I know Shanbei is very strong, Capital College is strong, Huahai and Guangnan are not weak either. In other people's eyes, they can firmly suppress us. But I still want to win and I think we have a chance to win!" Lou Cheng didn't hide his chest in front of his girlfriend.
"That's right ~ Next April, who knows how much you and my brother will grow." "But we can't be careless. It's said that Qu Hui of Sanjiang has become much stronger, and Shannan is not easy to deal with."
The two of them walked along the lakeside and weaved their future together. They were in high spirits and seemed to have endless topics to talk about. As they approached the long bridge, they suddenly saw a familiar figure standing by the railing of the wooden platform.
"Ah Qing?" Yan Zheke tried to call her with uncertainty.
Guo Qing turned around abruptly and wiped the corners of her eyes in a panic. She laughed dryly and said,
"Ke, Cheng, what a coincidence."
"I thought I recognized the wrong person." Yan Zheke chuckled at first. Then she noticed that something was wrong with Qing and asked with concern, "Qing, what's wrong?"
They were all crying …
Guo Qing lowered her eyes and clenched her fists. "I, I don't want to. I want to quit the special training!" Lin Sanjiu was thinking if she should ask Cheng to leave first so that Qing wouldn't feel embarrassed to talk to her.
"You don't want to join the special training? Why? "Yan Zheke blurted out. Lou Cheng was also surprised.
Why did Guo Qing suddenly want to quit the special training?
Guo Qing took a deep breath and forced a smile. "I'm in my second year. I'm so nervous about my classes. I'm afraid that my grades will drop again. I think, I think, I should focus on my studies."
Yan Zheke seemed to have sensed something. Instead of persuading her directly, she kept silent and considered her words.
At this moment, Guo Qing walked a few steps impatiently. Like a tight string that had finally reached its limit, she suddenly broke down and said,
"Ke, I, I feel so useless! I'm so stressed! I've been practicing visualization for more than a year, but I still can't enter meditation. I'm so sad to see you guys surpass me one by one, running faster and farther away. I've cried several times! The junior brothers and sisters behind me are also stronger than me. I can't even be a substitute now. I'm almost out of the list! The boy I'm chasing doesn't like me. My grades are dropping so badly that I've been criticized by the counselor. I, I'm such a failure! I'm so useless! "
Listening to her hysterical outburst, Lou Cheng felt like he had never known her before. He didn't expect this straightforward, outgoing, silly sister to have accumulated so many negative emotions and bear so much pressure.
He turned to look at Yan Zheke and saw the same expression on the girl's face. She was shocked, pitiful and shocked.
When they were chatting, Ah Qing was always the one who showed off, making others unable to feel her pain and sadness. Who knew that she had such a weak, helpless and desperate side?
In the locker room this afternoon, she seemed to be very sad.
Ah Qing, relax a little. You are like this because you put too much pressure on yourself. Well, if you want to withdraw from the special training, then withdraw temporarily. When the time comes, relax and forget about the pressure. Maybe you will succeed one day. We will always welcome you back. You will always be a member of our Martial Arts Club. " Yan Zheke bit her lower lip and said in a soft voice. She comforted her in a way that didn't irritate her and made some suggestions.
Guo Qing wiped her face with tears in her eyes and said with a bitter smile, "Ke, you don't need to comfort me. I've vented and I feel much better. I finally understand that people are different. Maybe I'm not talented enough to walk this path. Anyway, I'm in my third year of the amateur career now, so I have more assurance in finding a job. I'll still come to the martial arts class twice a week, but I have to pay more attention to my studies.
She sniffed and continued, "I won't be in the special training team anymore, but I'll cheer for you in the stands. I'll be proud of your grades …"
Guo Qing became more and more confused. Finally, she stopped talking and pointed to the bridge,
"I'll go back first …"
If I didn't have hope, I wouldn't be so sad now.
If I'd been like Sister Xiaowen and the others from the beginning and just wanted to get the amateur certificate, I'd definitely stay in the special training team.
Ke, Cheng, everyone, I'm sorry, I'm a deserter …
Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke had no experience in this kind of situation, so they didn't know how to persuade her. They could only watch Guo Qing leave in a hurry.
Lou Cheng turned his head to look at Yan Zheke with mixed feelings. He found that Yan Zheke also looked gloomy. She had been pursing her lips and was very depressed.
He hugged the girl and comforted her, "Ke, don't be sad. Didn't you say that there are two kinds of friends? One is the kind that you can be friends with for a lifetime, and the other is the crossing line. After a certain period of time, you'll gradually drift apart."
Like other people in Guo Qing's dormitory, he still chatted with Qiang, Old Qiu, and Model Worker from time to time, but he was completely unfamiliar with their faces. Although this was the first and possibly the last dormitory in his college career.
Yan Zheke buried her face in his shoulder and hit him lightly. She said in a muffled voice,
"Don't talk … I know the reason, but I still can't help but feel depressed and sad …"
Lou Cheng stroked her back gently and looked at Guo Qing who was getting farther and farther away. Suddenly, a song came to his mind. Although it was not so suitable, it was still a little appropriate.
"There are thousands of doors, but there is always one who has to go first."
Alas, for this rare reunion, we must leave the best and most profound memories. We must win the championship of the National University Martial Arts Competition once!
…
Guo Qing's withdrawal surprised and shocked Li Mao, Sun Jian, and the others. The depression lingered in the special training team for a long time. But after a week, when the second round of the knockout competition was over, everyone had almost forgotten about it when they enjoyed the victory and ridiculed Cai Zongming's performance. They no longer mentioned Guo Qing.
This was cruel, but this was the reality.
Everyone adjusted their mood and moved forward. They easily passed the third round of the knockout competition and entered their group. The first game was an away game against the seeded team of their group, Shannan University Martial Arts Club.
On Saturday morning, the high-speed train drove out of the station. Lou Cheng and the others sat separately, either looking out of the window at the fast passing scenery or whispering about their opponents.
The first strong opponent of this competition was coming!
