The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine: Chapter 16 assessment

Soon it was Monday, and Jian Changnian got up at 5:30, one hour before the agreed meeting time. After washing her face, she went to the playground for morning exercises to prepare for today's physical fitness assessment.

On this day, everyone has the word "nervous" on their faces. The assessment content is arranged in a compact and high-intensity manner. The physical fitness assessment is in the morning, and the actual combat test is in the afternoon. The five bottom-ranked people will leave the training base after finishing .

In this high-pressure training environment, several people had already abstained in the morning due to lack of physical strength.

After eating at noon, Jian Changnian changed her clothes in the dormitory, took out the newly bought pair of sneakers and put them on, cut off the label, tied the shoelaces, stood up, took a deep breath, and walked to the training room with the racket .

Unlike the atmosphere in the past, there is almost no one talking and chatting in today's training room. Except for the sound of badminton hitting the racket and the sound of shoe soles rubbing against the floor, you can hear needles falling.

Jian Changnian drew lots to the tenth player in the same group. The other player looked at her with obvious disdain.

"Come on, let's make a quick decision."

This person usually has good training results and is also a player who has entered the national competition. If there is no accident, he should be able to enter Group C in the next round of assessment.

Facing a strong opponent, Jian Changnian did not hesitate this time. She clenched her racket tightly, stood in front of the net, and assumed a defensive posture. Just like Xie Shi'an said, if you win a fight, you have to fight. to fight.

Yan Xinyuan, who was outside the field, watched her struggling to hit the ball with a smile on his lips.

But this was destined to be a difficult game. Jian Changnian lost the first big game behind by seven points, and won the second big game by a narrow margin. The two sides tied 1:1 and came to the deciding game.

Xie Shi'an finished his game early and came to the rest area, with a sweat towel hanging around his neck, drinking water while watching the game on the field.

The direction she was looking at seemed to be Jian Changnian.

Qiao Yuchu swayed in front of her: "Hey, what are you looking at?"

Xie Shi'an withdrew his gaze: "It's nothing."

Qiao Yuchu sat down beside her: "I heard you played together last week?"

"Who did you hear that from?"

"Orange juice, who else can have it?"

Xie Shi'an hacked Cheng Zhen into pieces in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.

"I'm not here to help her."

"Okay, okay—" Qiao Yuchu slapped her on the shoulder: "Then why don't you leave after the fight?"

Xie Shi'an turned his head to look at her, raising his eyebrows.

"If I remember correctly, you still haven't played a round."

Qiao Yuchu's expression changed: "Ah, yes, it's time for a break, so don't leave, wait for me to come with you."

While talking, people have already run away.

Xie Shi'an slightly bent his lower lip, revealing a faint smile.

Jian Changnian on the field was a little confused in the first few shots, but he started to exert strength in the middle of the game, and finally got better and won the game with a narrow margin of 21:18.

When the assistant coach blew the whistle to signal the end of the game, she hadn't gotten out of the game yet, and she was stunned for a few seconds before she came back to her senses and jumped three feet high with the racket.

"I won!!"

Yan Xinyuan also gave her a thumbs up: "Good job!"

Xie Shi'an threw his badminton bag over his shoulder, and said to Qiao Yuchu who had just finished the game, "Let's go, go back and rest."

It was the first time that Jian Changnian didn't stay to clean the training room, and his ranking on the whiteboard rose to the top of Group D. Although there was still some distance from Xie Shi'an, who was high above him, the sense of accomplishment brought about by this gradual progress was still there. There was a big smile on her face.

"This is the happiest day since I came to the training team."

Jane Changnian wrote this in her diary.

"After playing a game with Xie Shi'an, I seemed to be enlightened. Her skills, style of play, on-the-spot adaptability, including predicting the position of the ball, all benefited me a lot."

"Although there is still a big gap between me and her, but I don't know why, I seem to have a little confidence, a little confidence to catch up with her. I want to play with her and become her opponent."

***

With the end of the first month's assessment, the parting also followed. When Jian Changnian woke up, there were two empty beds in the dormitory.

After all, they lived and trained together for a month, and before leaving, everyone was a little reluctant, and the roommates who left hugged them one by one, and sent their blessings.

"Come on, you guys."

"You too, keep working hard when you go back."

"Next year, if there is a chance next year, I will definitely come again."

"Hahaha, I might go to the national team next year."

A group of people were giggling and laughing, but tears were clearly shining in each other's eyes.

Jian Changnian was a bit shy. The two roommates who left one slept on her upper bunk, and the other slept on the bed closest to the door. Although they didn't talk to her much, they never bullied her.

After thinking about it, she still stepped forward to hug him.

"I hope to see you again next year."

The roommate sleeping on her upper bunk wiped the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "That's for sure, if there is a chance next year, we can still be roommates, let's go, don't send it away, you all take care of yourself."

Seeing their backs dragging their suitcases away, Jian Changnian felt the cruelty of competitive sports for the first time.

***

In the following days, Jian Changnian repeated the life of the training room, cafeteria, dormitory, three points and one line. Some people train hard, while others can't bear such a high-intensity boring life without any entertainment activities. Some people left.

The girls' dormitory soon became vacant, and Jian Changnian also welcomed a new roommate of his own.

One early winter afternoon, when she returned to the dormitory after training, she heard the upper bunk rustling, and someone was packing up. When she looked up, Sun Qian smiled at her.

"The people in our dormitory are almost gone. Coach Yan said that the two dormitories will live together, so I moved here. I don't think there is anyone in the upper bunk. Do you mind?"

Jian Changnian shook her head: "I don't mind."

At the end, seeing that she was struggling to tear off the poster left by a roommate on the wall, I asked one more question.

"Do you need help?"

It took Sun Qian a lot of effort to dig the poster off the wall.

"It's okay, no need, I'll throw it on the ground first, and clean it later."

Jian Changnian picked up the poster of Jay Chou and looked at it: "Can I keep it?"

Sun Qian buried her head in making the bed: "Do you like him?"

Jian Changnian shook her head: "No, there is someone I really like."

"Yo, someone you like?" Sun Qian asked casually.

Jian Changnian almost choked on his own saliva: "Ahem...not... just an ordinary friend."

"Okay, okay, it's not mine anyway, keep it if you like."

"it is good."

Jian Changnian smoothed the folded corners of the poster, thought about it, and put it on the head of the bed. She doesn't like people looking at her when she is sleeping, so she put it on the door. She is afraid that other roommates will have opinions, so she finally sticks the poster in his locker.

Jian Changnian clapped her hands, she was done, looking at the brand new locker, she was very satisfied.

***

Last Friday, she made an appointment with Zhou Mu when she went home this week, and Zhou Mu would go to see her grandma, so that when she and Zhou Mu called, they could have a word or two with grandma by the way.

So as soon as the training in the afternoon was over, Jian Changnian hurried to the phone booth, who knew that when she picked up the receiver, there was no sound. She turned her head and looked to the side, and there was a piece of paper posted on the wall: under maintenance, not in use.

How can this be good?

Jian Chang thought about it for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he turned and ran to the coach's office.

She knocked lightly on the half-hidden door.

There was an angry voice from inside: "Come in."

Jian Changnian pushed the door open and entered. It was a huge office, and it was dinner time. Yan Xinyuan was the only one there. He was sitting at the desk, mending clothes with a needle and thread, with a cigarette stick in his mouth, waving from time to time He took a puff with one hand, and when he saw someone coming in, he knocked the ash into the ashtray.

"What's wrong? What's the matter?"

Jian Changnian smiled a little embarrassedly: "I want to borrow the landline in the office and call grandma. The phone booth in the corridor is under maintenance and is temporarily unavailable."

"Okay, let's play. I'll go to the cafeteria to make a meal. If I don't come back after you finish playing, remember to lock the door." Yan Xinyuan put down his sewing, got up and walked out with a cigarette stick.

"Okay, thank you, Coach Yan."

Jian Changnian picked up the phone on the desk, dialed a familiar number, and when waiting for the connection, his expression was rarely joyful.

Closed training, there are very few opportunities to go out, and even a vacation is only half a day at most. She hasn't seen her grandma for a long time, and she really misses her.

Hearing Zhou Mu's bluffing voice, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

"How is my grandma?"

"Tsk, I come home after school to help you visit grandma, and you don't ask me if I'm okay."

"Okay, okay, I know~ You must be eating well, you are in good health, and then you made progress in your studies, and you rushed to the top ten in the monthly exam, right?"

Zhou Mu giggled: "Thank you for your good words, the top ten is almost there, and we will be divided into classes next semester. I have been under a lot of pressure recently."

Because of this, Zhou Mu is either making up lessons or on the way to make up lessons for the past few weeks. He is going home this week because his mother is going to celebrate her birthday, or else he would have come to play with her long ago.

"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense with you, I'll give the phone to grandma."

Hearing the old man's familiar voice on the receiver, Jian Changnian covered the receiver, a little excited.

"Grandma, how is your health recently? Have you taken your medicine on time?"

"Grandma is fine. Don't worry. Is Niannian very busy studying recently? She hasn't been home for more than a month..."

Jian Changnian's eyes turned hot, and she lied.

"Well... the school arranged for us to go out for an internship. When the internship period is over, I will go home to see you."

"Okay, okay, then you have to work hard and don't let down the expectations of the school and teachers."

Jian Changnian responded softly, and grandma told her to put on more clothes in the cold weather, take good care of herself, and so on. She rambled on for about ten minutes, and when she was about to hang up, Zhou Mu's voice came in again.

"Hey hey, don't hang up first, that...I want you...to do me a favor..."

"Why are you so coy?" Jian Changnian joked.

"Oh, it's just—" Zhou Mu glanced at grandma, ran a little farther, and said while clutching his phone.

"It's cold, I knit a scarf for Senior Cheng. I have to make up classes recently, and he is also training. Can you please pass it to him for me?"

Jian Changnian deliberately hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm also training in closed mode."

"Oh, you're so close, it's just a matter of going out, please ~ please ~"

The most unbearable thing is that she pinched her throat and acted like a spoiled child, and Jian Changnian felt goosebumps all over her body.

"Okay, okay, can't I go? You talk well."

Zhou Mu smiled again: "Then it's settled! I'll go to school another day and send it to you. By the way, I also knit one for you. Try it and see if it's warm."

It's really hard for her to weave a scarf for Cheng Zhen while making up lessons, and she hasn't forgotten her as a good friend.

Jian Changnian's heart warmed up: "Okay, after I finish training, let's go out to play together."

When she finished making the phone call and went out, Yan Xinyuan just came back with a lunch box.

"Yo, are you done?"

Jian Changnian stuck out her tongue: "I haven't seen grandma for more than a month, and I miss her a little, so I talk a little more."

"It's okay. The office phone is useless anyway. If you miss grandma, you can come over and call home."

Jian Changnian shook her head: "I don't have a landline at home, so Zhou Mu has to go home, and I can't keep bothering her."

After hearing this, Jian Changnian was a little curious. The family members of other teaching assistants would occasionally come to the training base, but Yan Xinyuan seemed to be alone all the time, and he didn't watch him talk to his family members on the phone.

"Coach Yan, are all your family members in Beijing?"

"My family is far away."

Obviously he said this with a smile, but Jian Changnian felt a trace of inexplicable sadness.

"Coach Yan..."

Yan Xinyuan smiled, and walked in with a lunch box: "By the way, just wait a moment, the clothes will be patched up soon, you can take them to Xie Shi'an."

Jian Changnian followed him into the door, only to see him put down the lunch box, wash his hands, pick up the needle and thread again, and saw him mending when he just came in.

"Is this clothes Xie Shi'an's?"

"Yes, I see that the clothes you hang outside are torn, so I take them over and mend them so they can be worn again."

Yan Xinyuan was wearing presbyopic glasses, squinting, threading needles.

Jian Changnian looked out the window, the weather was good today, and the balconies of the dormitory buildings were all shaded, so many people stretched steel wires in the yard, drying clothes and drying quilts, all in disorder.

She looked back, but she didn't notice just now, there were a few boy socks with holes on the chair next to Yan Xinyuan.

"Here, it's done." Yan Xinyuan bit off the end of the thread, smoothed out the mended cuffs, shook off the jacket and looked at it, and was very satisfied with his workmanship.

Jian Changnian took the clothes, a little surprised: "Do you know how to do needlework?"

"That's right, I used to sew and mend for my children." Yan Xinyuan smiled and took another puff of the cigarette stick. In the smoke, his expression concealed a trace of imperceptible loneliness.

"Then I'll go back first, Coach Yan."

"it is good."

***

Jian Changnian returned to the dormitory building with her clothes in her arms. Seeing that the door of Xie Shi'an's dormitory was closed, she gently knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" It was Qiao Yuchu who opened the door, and Jian Changnian breathed a sigh of relief, luckily it wasn't that ice cube face.

"Well, I delivered the clothes for Coach Yan. He saw that Xie Shi'an's coat cuffs hanging downstairs were unstitched, so he took them to mend."

Qiao Yuchu took the clothes and looked at them: "Hey, Coach Yan still has this hand, Shi'an is not here now, she will come back in a while, I will tell her, thank you Coach Yan, and thank you for helping out. Come in and sit down."

Compared with Xie Shi'an's stuffy face with ice cubes, talking to Qiao Yuchu is really like a spring breeze.

She thanked her so solemnly and invited her in to play, which actually made Jian Changnian a little embarrassed.

"No need, no need, it's just a matter of little effort."

Jian Changnian wanted to leave, but remembering Zhou Mu's entrustment, he turned on his toes again, and asked hesitantly, "Well, I don't know the training time at the swimming base. Did you hear him talk about it?"

There was a hint of interest on the corner of Qiao Yuchu's lips.

"Are you looking for orange juice?"

Jian Changnian scratched her head, she had never done anything like giving gifts to others, and she had to figure out their schedule before going, otherwise she would not find anyone.

"Well, give me something."

It was a rare gossip, and Qiao Yuchu pricked up his ears.

"What is it? Find someone to take it there, or Shi'an and I can deliver it for you."

Jian Changnian shook her head: "It's better for me to deliver it myself."

Qiao Yuchu made a long "Oh", which made Jian Changnian feel a little uncomfortable.

Those who saw her embarrassment didn't bother her anymore.

"Their rest time is similar to ours. They should have an hour of free time from 6:00 to 7:30 pm every day."

Jian Changnian breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, then I'll go back first."

Before leaving, Qiao Yuchu stuffed a few apples into her hand: "Come and play next time."

When Xie Shi'an returned to the dormitory after taking a shower, Qiao Yuchu told her about it with a gossiping face.

"Hey, don't you think Jian Changnian has some ideas about orange juice?"

Xie Shi'an looked at her with an unbelievable expression.

"Can this also be taken away?"

"You think, something that must be delivered by hand must be very meaningful, right?"

In terms of thinking, maybe Jian Changnian's friend Zhou Mu had a bigger idea.

"What's the matter? Didn't you personally give me and orange juice?"

Qiao Yuchu thought about it: "That's right, anyway, Jian Changnian is still young, but you, eighteen, classmate Xie."

A smile floated on the corner of Xie Shi'an's lips, and he picked up the hair dryer to dry his hair.

"Ms. Qiao, don't let me remind you that eighteen is not yet the legal age for marriage."

Speaking of this topic, Qiao Yuchu remembered the question Cheng Zhen asked at the last birthday party, and poked her arm.

"Hey, there is something ignorant and throbbing in my adolescence, you are like a pool of stagnant water, Shi'an, do you really have no one you like?"

The sound of the hair dryer was too loud, Xie Shi'an couldn't hear what she said clearly, turned off the hair dryer and asked, "What did you say?"

"Let me tell you—do you have someone you like?" Qiao Yuchu deliberately teased her, leaning on her shoulder and said loudly.

The distance was so close that Xie Shi'an's ears turned pink visibly, and even his entire cheeks were hot.

Xie Shi'an forced himself to be calm, buried his head and wiped his hair with a towel.

"No, why ask this?"

Seeing that she didn't respond, Qiao Yuchu walked away without interest: "As the older sister who watched you grow up, why not be curious?"

"What about you, do you have any?" After she left behind him, Xie Shi'an was able to breathe and speak normally, looking into her eyes and asking slowly.

Qiao Yuchu counted with her fingers: "I've kissed three times this year, but I don't think there's anything I like."

An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Xie Shi'an's lips, and he brushed his hair again.

"The requirements are quite high."

"Why are you demanding so much? A man in his twenties, not to mention a successful career, asking him to have a decent job to make ends meet, isn't it too much? Also, don't mention how fashionable he is when he goes out to meet people. , at least clean and tidy, not sloppy."

Xie Shi'an nodded: "That's true, then do you have a favorite type?"

Qiao Yuchu laid down on her bed in a large font: "Well... Let me think about it, you have to be successful in your career, love cleanliness, not be too short, have a mature and steady personality, be gentle and considerate to others, be sincere and never lie..."

Qiao Yuchu said a lot in one breath, then turned her head to look at her: "What about you, Shi'an, have you ever thought about your ideal type?"

"My ideal type, I think no matter what it becomes, I will still like her."

Xie Shi settled for a while, then said softly.
