MTL - Winner Takes All-Chapter 17
There are many similarities between squash and tennis in terms of playing style, but the real difference between them is not small, but for a near-professional player like Li Shuo, he used the technique of playing tennis to play squash. It's like playing piano after playing the piano, so he has great confidence in himself.
Li Shuo threw the ball to Zhao Jinxin: "Come and serve."
Zhao Jinxin caught the ball, threw it twice in his hand, and pushed it out with a racket. The ball hit the tee exactly, and then bounced back quickly.
Only this one kick-off, Li Shuo determined that Zhao Jinxin's technique was very ordinary. The kick-off angle was well-formed and it was easy for him to receive it, unless Zhao Jinxin had reservations, but the first ball was usually used from a psychological perspective. Shocked the opponent, so this is mostly Zhao Jinxin's strength.
Li Shuo stepped forward and hit the ball back. After a touchdown, the ball hit the wall close to his side. Zhao Jinxin responded quickly and reached the best position in a few steps. However, this ball Li Shuo played very overcast, the ball was too close to the side wall, naturally it was not far from the wall when rebounding, making it hard for Zhao Jinxin to stretch the racket, and the position was still on the right. Zhao Jinxin was left-handed. Lived the ball, but after the ball flew out, it hit the side wall and fell to the ground again.
Zhao Jinxin glanced at Li Shuo with a cheek.
Li Shuo smiled proudly.
The next time, Li Shuo basically abused Zhao Jinxin. Li Jinshuo was surprised by Zhao Jinxin's speed, reflection, and strength, but after all, playing the ball was not tug of war. He focused on technology. After playing two balls, Li Shuo stopped playing tricky angles, but Zhao Jinxin also Did not catch up with the score, in the end, Li Shuo felt he was bullying.
At the end of the game, Zhao Jinxin was defeated fiercely. He threw the racket to the ground and sat on the ground with his back to Li Shuo to rest.
Li Shuo hit a ball, played with himself, and said, "Don't be convinced?"
Zhao Jinxin did not speak.
Li Shuo glanced at Zhao Jinxin, thinking, will not be angry, he laughed: "What's wrong? Tired, willing to gamble and lose. If I don't want to come again, I will change hands to fight with you?"
Zhao Jinxin said dumbly, "No more fights." He jumped from the ground and walked towards the door.
Li Shuo is a bit surprised. Zhao Jinxin is usually not such a small-bellied chicken intestine. Is he angry after losing a game? Even if the bet is ... that, that's a big deal.
Li Shuo put down his racket and chased it up: "Jin Xin." He chased outside the squash court, holding Zhao Jinxin's shoulders, and pulled his body over, "You won't ..."
Li Shuo froze.
Zhao Jinxin's eyes were red and his lips were flat, as if tears were about to fall.
Li Shuo was dumbfounded: "You ... you are ..." He laughed uncontrollably. "Baby, what are you crying for when you lose a ball?" He rubbed Zhao Jinxin's hair and spoiled, "Count Uncle Li Not good, okay? But what makes you cry. "Is he really bullying? Do young people now have such strong self-esteem?
Zhao Jinxin's lips shuddered and whispered, "Have you been playing with me?"
Li Shuo froze, his smile disappeared, Zhao Jinxin's expression was too serious, not because it was because of a losing game, he was right: "Why do you think so?"
Zhao Jinxin breathed out a sigh of relief slowly and choked, "You watched me chasing you all day and ran away, and changed your way to please you, do you think it is fun? I like the way you can't get it, is it special? Stupid? Give me hope and break every time, aren't you kidding me? "
Li Shuo embraced Zhao Jinxin and confessed: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to think so, I swear I never played you, but I didn't consider your mood carefully, I'm sorry."
Zhao Jinxin's redness in his eyes made Li Shuo distressed.
He quickly passed everything in his head from the acquaintance to the present, it seems that it really is like Zhao Jinxin said, one chase, one is not slow, Zhao Jinxin's definition in his eyes has always been "play Children can afford it ". When he had just ended a relationship and his heart was difficult, he liked such a" companion "and enjoyed this relationship without responsibility and commitment, but he could not avoid Zhao Jinxinzhen more and more. It is possible that he likes him. If that is the case, his approach is too much.
Whether he likes Zhao Jinxin or not, and if he is willing to formally associate with this person, he shouldn't catch people like this just because he thinks Zhao Jinxin is open and playful, it doesn't mean he can do it. .
Li Shuo really regretted and blame himself. He broke the heart of someone who liked him. What happened to him during this time ...
Zhao Jinxin sucked his nose: "Do you like me a little?"
Li Shuo took a deep breath and sincerely said, "Yes." Of course he likes Zhao Jinxin, but he is not serious about the state of his emotions at the moment, and Zhao Jinxin's background, age, and personality make him worry a lot, but he You know, he likes this big boy.
Zhao Jinxin hugged Li Shuo for a moment, and whispered, "That's good." After releasing his hand, he gently pushed away Li Shuo, "I'll go back first."
Li Shuo wanted to stay, but he opened his mouth but did not make a sound. He leaned his forehead against the glass wall of the squash room, slowly closed his eyes, and was upset with his heart. At this time, it was okay to separate. He needed to be independent and calm. Think about it, think about the relationship between the two.
Back home, Li Shuo sorted out the results of the negotiation, sent it to Xiang Ning, and then looked at the phone in a daze.
Would you like to call Zhao Jinxin? But what did you say? He should have sent Zhao Jinxin home just now, but it was embarrassing.
Li Shuo sighed, thinking about Zhao Jinxin's red eyes, but still felt uncomfortable for a while. He is a person with a strong sense of morality. The principle of being a person is not to do bad things. If he does something wrong and hurts people, he will always be upset. Zhao Jinxin's not-so-stern "complaint" made him blame himself.
Maybe it's time to let go and start again. He knew that Li Chengxiu had never liked him, and now he broke up, and Zhao Jinxin appeared next to him. If he always thought of Li Chengxiu, it was not fair to Zhao Jinxin, he could not force others' feelings, and he could not stay entangled in the past. He should cherish the person in front of him.
He has concerns. Zhao Jinxin is 11 years younger than him, playing at a very old age, and is very open-minded. He does n’t look like a single-minded person, and the parents of the two are still friends. If there are any problems in the relationship, they may be awful. Which of them is enough to be daunting. But Li Shuo is not a man who will compromise with the secular rules. Zhao Jinxin is young, but he is not small. Zhao Jinxin loves to play. He also has confidence and can hold it. As for his father, the relationship itself is not wrong. There is no reason to be afraid of doing something wrong. He never thought before the beginning of a relationship that the two were suitable or not, and how much obstacles there are in reality. The only thing that decides whether the two are "suitable" and long-lasting is not their origin, not their appearance, or those who can. The conditions for quantification can only be character and love.
As for whether he will break up in the future, why should he consider it now? What's the point? He doesn't even know when he will die.
When he wants to fall in love with someone, then only love.
The more Li Shuo thinks, the more open his mind, the more open his mood. It's time to let go of the past, face Zhao Jinxin, and face this relationship.
At this moment, he heard someone calling him downstairs, he opened the door and heard the **** voice: "Mom, you are back."
"Hurry up." Mrs. Li's voice was a little excited.
Li Shuo went downstairs, and Mrs. Li said happily, "Xiao Shuo, the master has calculated it for you. It's quite accurate. I didn't tell him about many things, he knew it."
Li Shuo almost forgot the stubble and sneered: "Well, what did he say?"
"He said you were a rich man."
"Oh." Li Shuo looked at the emerald worn on his mother's neck and the bag on his arm. As long as he was not blind, he should be able to see it.
"I focus on marriage." Mrs. Li took out a piece of paper from her bag. "I took it all down. The master said, you will find a sheep. The relationship between you will be a bit upset, but in the end you will be with He Meimei Yes, it ’s a year older than you. ”
"Maybe 11 years younger than him." Mr. Li interjected. "He is not young anymore. Find a younger one."
"You guys like to be young, don't you," Madam Li cried.
Mr. Li grinned, "Isn't that about my son?"
"I think it's about the same age and have a common language." Mrs. Li laughed. "But the most important thing is to see you."
Li Shuo blinked: "11 years old?"
"Yeah, either 1 year older or 11 years younger."
"Uh ... this kind of thing, let it be." At the age of 11 ... it was really Zhao Jinxin who wouldn't say it. Immediately after this idea came out, Li Shuo laughed at himself in his heart, and how he followed the superstition.
"That is, when it comes to falling in love, you have to be natural, but you have to be on your own, and if you come across this trait, pay more attention."
Li Shuo made a perfunctory "hmm", and his mind had begun to think wildly.
Is there really a destiny in the midst?
Li Shuo laughed fiercely at himself again, but he had been lingering about the saying of “belonging to the sheep”.
Until the next day, Zhao Jinxin did not contact Li Shuo.
Li Shuo waited for a day and started to feel a little anxious. Since the two met, Zhao Jinxin's various information has not been interrupted. It is normal to make three harassing calls and send more than ten text messages a day. He thought that Zhao Jinxin's emotions had passed, and he would just call like usual, His uncle Li, coquettishly with him, but has not been in contact for more than 24 hours now, he really feels very unaccustomed, the person who turned around him all day suddenly disappeared, and his heart was empty.
It seems that what happened that day really hurt Zhao Jinxin.
Li Shuo felt remorseful and uncomfortable. He thought about it, instead of calling Zhao Jinxin, he just grabbed the key and went out. It is more sincere to go to the door and apologize in person. 2k novel reading network
