MTL - The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine-Chapter 121 reconciliation
Every time Jian Changnian went to see her, it was late at night. Firstly, she had to train during the day, and secondly, she came here once or twice, and found that no matter how well the secrecy work was done, there would always be some people lingering at the door of her ward. Unidentified strangers.
In order not to cause trouble to others, Jian Changnian learned to be good, and only came at night when no one was around, and every time she came, she would take a look through the glass from a distance before leaving, or ask the nurse to bring her something, Sometimes it is daily necessities, sometimes it is food, sometimes it is flowers, and I even gave her two Jay Chou CDs.
The fifth day after surgery.
Xie Shi'an was already able to get out of bed and walk. When Jian Chang read it, she hadn't rested yet. She was pacing back and forth in the room slowly while leaning on the wall. What ordinary people can do with ease, for now It was even more difficult for her.
Even for minimally invasive surgery, general anesthesia is required, and then the skin is cut open with an electric knife, and the torn meniscus is completely stitched up one by one, and then the stapler is used like a stapler to snap the skin open. Nailed together.
Just listening to these surgical procedures, Jian Changnian was startled. She is so afraid of pain, and she doesn't know how she got through these few days.
It was such a sudden effort, there was a muffled sound in the ward, and her figure could not be seen from the glass.
Jian Changnian didn't care too much, pushed the door open with a stride, and rushed in: "Shi'an!"
"I'm fine."
Xie Shi'an was sitting on the ground, probably fell down by accident. Seeing her coming, he didn't want to make people worry. He put his hands on the ground and wanted to stand up, but his knees still couldn't use the strength and failed.
Jian Changnian didn't think much about it, put down the things in her hands, picked her up, put her on the bed, and then squatted down to check her knees, nothing could be seen wrapped in gauze.
"I'm going to call the doctor."
She said, stood up and turned around to leave.
Xie Shi'an pulled him back, his ears turned red from her set of vigorous actions, and he seldom murmured.
"No...it's okay, I didn't fall to my knee."
"Where did you fall? It doesn't matter where you fall."
She wished she could turn the person over and examine her carefully, and her anxious eyes wandered around her body.
Xie Shi'an slightly bent his lips: "It's okay, I sat down when I was about to fall, why are you free today?"
Since the last quarrel, this was the first time the two of them got together alone. She listened to Coach Wan and kept as little contact with Xie Shi'an as possible to avoid being photographed and causing her trouble.
Jian Chang tried to find an excuse.
"Eh... Actually, grandma is worried about you, so let me take a look."
Xie Shi'an looked a little nervous.
"Did you tell grandma?"
"It's such a big deal, she already knows about it after reading the news."
This is true. On the afternoon when Xie Shi'an's accident happened, grandma called and said that she was afraid that she would not be taken care of. She wanted to come to Beijing, but she persuaded her. If she came, she might not know who would take care of whom.
Xie Shi'an smiled bitterly.
That's right, the Internet is everywhere now, but since I can see the news about her injury, will I also be able to see the speculation about their relationship.
"Tell grandma, I'm fine, don't worry her, those rumors on the Internet..."
Jian Chang read her expression and knew what she was thinking.
"That's all speculation, grandma won't believe it."
Xie Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
After finally coming here, Jian Changnian didn't want to make her unhappy, so she changed the subject.
"I heard that your appetite has been poor these days, and you can't eat anything else, so I cut some fruits and brought them here. I also asked the cafeteria to cook some porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat. You can try it later."
As she spoke, she opened the lid of the lunch box. On the top layer were neatly stacked fruits, including watermelon, dragon fruit, small tomatoes, kiwis and oranges, all of which she loved. It's porridge, and it's still steaming.
Xie Shi'an was taken aback.
Jane Changnian handed her the spoon.
"What are you doing in a daze, eat quickly, or the porridge won't taste good when it gets cold."
Xie Shi'an looked up at her and said slowly.
"How do you know I have a bad appetite?"
Jian Changnian's eyes wandered, a little afraid to look at her, and afraid of being misunderstood, so she hurriedly explained.
"I... I left the phone number of your bed nurse sister, but I definitely don't mean to pry into your privacy, I just want to know... how are you doing, how is your recovery, and if you are missing something , I can send it to you as soon as possible."
"Aren't you busy? You worry so much every day."
"Busy, I only come here after training at night—"
Xie Shi looked at her calmly, his eyes became softer, and he seemed a little dumbfounded.
"So, you are the one who brings me things every day."
Only then did Jian Changnian realize that she had slipped her tongue, she blushed to the base of her neck, picked up the lunch box and was about to leave.
"Ah, it's not every day...well, the porridge...the porridge is cold, I'll take it to the nurse's station to warm it up."
Xie Shi'an pulled him back.
"The temperature is just right, I don't like to eat too hot."
Jian Changnian turned around, not daring to look at her, and put the lunch box on the table for her: "Then you eat, I'll go back first."
Xie Shi'an pushed the lunch box out again.
"Have you eaten? Haven't eaten a piece and eaten."
She was always unable to refuse any of her requests. Jian Changnian pursed her lips and sat down again, but it was still embarrassing to share a set of bowls and chopsticks with her.
Fortunately, Xie Shi'an was eating at the hospital these days, and he also prepared a lunch box.
She set aside half of the porridge for her, and there were still a few sips left on the bottom of the bowl, and she ate more than half of the fruit after the meal.
Jian Changnian was very happy to see her eating happily.
"Then I'll bring you some tomorrow."
Xie Shi'an slightly bent his lips.
"Aren't we all going to the Olympic Village? There's still time to do this."
"I'm leaving next week."
They were all going to the Olympic Village to adapt to the venue in advance, but they could only lie in the hospital. Xie Shi'an looked down at his right knee wrapped in gauze, and clenched the quilt tightly with his fingers.
Jian Changnian brought her a basin of hot water.
"Let's soak your feet. It's good for blood circulation. There are still some days before the official competition. The surgery has been done successfully, and the biggest risk has been overcome. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."
Seeing that she was about to do something for her, Xie Shi'an hurriedly bent down to stop her.
"I, I will do it myself."
"it is good."
Jian Changnian helped her take off her shoes and socks, gently lifted her feet into the water, and then got up to clean up the house.
She swept all the **** on the table into the trash can, fastened the trash bag, and then went to rinse the lunch box. When she came back, she saw that the medicine on the bedside hadn't been taken yet. She shook the kettle, and there was no hot water in it. When the water was gone, I went to the nurse's station to pick up a pot and came back, and took out the trash by the way.
Xie Shi'an saw her busy, in summer, the air conditioner was turned on in the room, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"That day... I shouldn't lose my temper in front of you."
Jian Changnian never thought that she would apologize, so she smiled.
"I'd rather you say what's on your mind, even if you're angry at me, than hold it back alone."
She knows that there must be many people in the national team who don't understand her now, including the public, why do you have to work so hard, and missed this year and the Tokyo Olympics.
Compared with those people's support and understanding, Xie Shi'an just wanted her to give her a positive look to let her know that she was not alone on this road, which was why she lost her temper that day.
She needs a sense of approval too much in her heart, especially the support and encouragement from the people she likes.
"I..." Xie Shi'an just opened his mouth.
Jian Changnian smiled again.
"Needless to say, from the day I met you, I knew that Shi'an is someone who loves badminton more than anything else. Although I can't be like you, I am willing to go all out with you."
The two looked at each other with smiles on their faces, and at this point, they finally reconciled.
Jane often wanted to see that her feet were still in the water.
"The water is cold, drink the medicine and go to bed."
"it is good."
Xie Shi'an wanted to pick up a towel to dry off the drops of water, but found that her right leg could not be bent temporarily. Before she could get discouraged, Jian Changnian took the towel and held her foot in her palm.
Her hands were warm, and her movements were so cautious, as if she was holding a piece of treasure. Xie Shi'an's face turned red instantly, and she had never been served so much in this life.
"I... I will do it myself."
"Isn't it inconvenient?"
Jian Changnian didn't dare to raise her head, afraid that she would see that she was actually very nervous at this moment, and it was the first time she had done such a thing.
Xie Shi'an's skin is very fair, and the capillaries are faintly visible. Holding the back of his foot in his hand is like holding a piece of mutton fat jade, which has a layer of tide/redness from the hot water.
Jian Changnian's chest was beating violently, and she swallowed unconsciously.
"Okay... okay?"
"All right."
She woke up like a dream, suppressed the throbbing in her heart, wiped off the water drops and put her feet in the slippers, then quickly stood up, carried the basin into the bathroom and poured out the water, before growing up Let out a sigh of relief.
Jane Chang Nian, Jane Chang Nian, wake up!
Don't take advantage of others!
She patted herself on the forehead, and when she walked out, Xie Shi'an supported the bed and stood up again.
"Hey, why are you going?"
"Wash your face and brush your teeth." Xie Shi'an was afraid that she would hug him again, so he hurriedly blocked her words in advance.
"The doctor said to exercise properly, I will walk by myself."
"I didn't plan to do anything either."
Jian Changnian snickered, protecting her left and right, causing Xie Shi'an to slam her on the bathroom door.
"Go aside."
She was washing up inside, and Jian Changnian had been guarding her at the door the entire time. She was relieved to see her come out safely and return to the bed, and then put the water glass by the bedside that had already been warmed up into her hands.
"Drink it quickly, drink it so you can sleep."
Jian Changnian watched her frown, closed her eyes and swallowed a large amount of pills into her throat, gulped down half a glass of water, and knew that the medicine was not very tasty.
"I'll bring some more sugar tomorrow."
"No, I still eat candy when I'm an adult."
"No need? The nougat I bought yesterday is quite delicious."
Xie Shi'an was awkward: "Then you can take a little less for me."
With a smile on Jian Changnian's face, she took the water glass from her palm, helped her to lie down, and tucked in the quilt for her.
"Okay, then I'm leaving, you have a good rest."
She was fine when she was not around, but once she was cared for, the loneliness and vulnerability that flooded in like a tide instantly engulfed her.
Xie Shi'an let himself hold her wrist, thinking in his heart: just one night, just one night, let her draw a little more strength from her body to survive this long night.
"My leg hurts a bit."
"I'm going to call the doctor."
"Just fall asleep."
Her voice was soft, but she didn't let go of her wrist. Under the dim lamp, her eyes seemed to be able to speak.
Jian Changnian was so soft in her heart that she dragged the chair and sat down beside the bed, held her hand, and stuffed it into the bed.
"Then I'll wait until you fall asleep before leaving."
The expression on Xie Shi'an's face seemed to let out a small sigh of relief, and he quickly closed his eyes. The great demon king who was all-powerful in the arena, sleeping cleanly and well-behaved like a child at this moment.
For the first time in days, her furrowed brow relaxed.
Jian Changnian has been guarding her every step of the way, staring at her face, her trembling eyelashes until her breathing gradually becomes even and calm.
She slowly bent down/body up, hugged her gently across the quilt, and pressed her head to her chest.
It will be fine, Shi'an, it will be fine.
***
Jian Changnian came back from the hospital early in the morning, and ran into Wan Jing at the door of the apartment who was about to go downstairs for morning exercises.
She lowered her head and wanted to pass quickly, but she was stopped by someone, and Wan Jing looked at her suspiciously.
"Where did you come back this early in the morning?"
"I... I went to buy breakfast."
"What about the breakfast you bought?"
"..."
Jian Changnian's hands were empty, so he scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Coach Wan..."
Of course Wan Jing knew that she could only go to the hospital to visit Xie Shi'an because she didn't come home all night, but at this critical juncture, he was also a little anxious: "What time is it, and you still run outside, in case someone takes pictures again, Let me save some snacks, okay?!"
Jian Changnian's expression darkened a little.
"I know, Coach Wan, I just went to give her some food, and I won't do it in the future."
"Go back to training. I think you've been busy for a day. Add another five kilometers of physical training today."
Wan Jing waved his hand, signaling her to leave quickly, out of sight and out of mind.
Jian Changnian nodded, walked two steps, but remembered something again, and called him back.
"Coach Wan, it's about Shi'an's injury in the last Sudirman Cup..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted.
When Wan Jing heard her mentioning the Sudirman Cup, he became angry: "How about returning the Sudirman Cup? The most important thing right now is the Olympic Games! Shi'an is like this, if he really can't play, you know How heavy is the burden on you?!"
That's right, the most important thing right now is the Olympics, and even if she reported Gao Jian's negative game and intentionally lost the goal, without evidence, the leaders of the national team would not believe it.
Taking a step back, it doesn't matter if she has the evidence in her hand. The competition is coming soon, and they won't deal with Gao Jian immediately. After all, he is also one of the men's team's favorites to win the championship. Losing two powerful seed players for gold all at once, for Which team is a devastating blow.
She can only temporarily bury this matter in her heart.
Jian Changnian closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, turned and left: "Got it, I'm going to train right away."
A few days passed after that.
Jian Changnian went to the Olympic Village with the big team first to gather, Wan Jing stayed behind to accompany her in her rehabilitation, Xie Shi'an was discharged from the hospital when she was able to walk freely, and was transferred to a more professional rehabilitation center, and began to do some simple exercises The upper body can resume training.
Soon, the Olympic draw will come down.
The good news is that she and Jin Nanzhi are not in the same competition area because of their high world points ranking.
The bad news is that she and Jian Changnian are in the same half, which means that they may meet in the knockout stage.
Wan Jing looked at the schedule, feeling a little overwhelmed.
"This time the Rio Olympics has added men's team and women's team events, as well as your singles and doubles events. What our coaching staff means is that you will not be allowed to play in the team event. You will be given one for the singles and doubles, and you will be guaranteed a gold medal. That’s fine, otherwise it would be too much of a burden on your body.”
Xie Shi'an was lifting the dumbbells. Hearing what he said, he was taken aback for a moment and stopped.
Although she was unwilling, that was the only way she could do it.
"Then if I don't retire, I can play wherever I can."
Wan Jing saw that her forehead was covered with sweat and the clothes on her back were also wet, so she passed a towel over.
"Okay, if you don't want to quit the competition, don't quit. The media in the province are making irresponsible remarks. Anyway, I believe you must know it in your heart. Wipe off your sweat and practice after a while."
Xie Shi'an shook his head and raised the dumbbell again.
"Time is running out, I have to improve my physical fitness as soon as possible, Coach Wan, please help me time."
Wan Jing was actually a little afraid that she would be depressed because of her injuries, but Xie Shi'an was stronger than he expected.
A gratified smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, but let's make an agreement, step by step, after this group is done, we must rest."
In the days of the Olympic Village, the teammates ran out to play during the break time. After all, it is rare to go abroad. Only Jian Changnian is more self-disciplined and hardworking than when he was at the national team training base. .
Occasionally, she would send messages to Xie Shi'an when she was free. Sometimes she lifted weights in the training room by herself, saying that she had gained so many pounds. I also brought the chili sauce I made.
Xie Shi'an didn't talk much, most of the time he just posted photos, food, the blue sky and white clouds outside the ward, the stitches were removed, he can be discharged from the hospital, and he is doing rehabilitation training.
One day, I sent her a photo of her back, wearing the national team uniform and holding a racket, standing in front of the net.
Jian Changnian jumped up from the bed, and directly dialed the phone to her, with uncontrollable joy in her voice.
"You can play now?!"
"Well, I just came back from the club and I feel fine."
Her voice sounded pleasant, too.
Jian Changnian breathed a sigh of relief, but almost cried with joy.
"Then I... see you soon?"
Since the last time she came to visit her in the hospital and was caught and scolded by Wan Jing, she really hadn't seen her for a while, and even the candy that she promised to bring was entrusted to the nurse.
Xie Shi'an was walking on the road. Hearing her say this, his ears warmed up: "How long has it been..."
"I think... I've fought side by side with you, security team, invincible!"
You see, even I think you have to add such a long reason after the three words before you can say it.
The feeling of unrequited love made her feel sour and astringent, but fortunately, Jian Changnian was more than happy that she could return to the game.
Xie Shi'an smiled.
"The plane the day after tomorrow."
She blurted out: "Then I'll pick you up."
"I'm with Coach Wan."
Xie Shi'an's voice was flat.
Jian Changnian was taken aback for a moment, also, she must have been hugged at the airport, so I won't bother her.
"Then...see you on the field."
"it is good."
