Chapter 220: Don't admit defeat

The week-long World Badminton Championships are in full swing for the third day.

Zhou Yu, who had a bye today, sat in the stands with Lin Koukou and Xing Xiaolong, who had just finished the game, to watch the 1/8 finals between Jiang Yufei and Indonesian team Zhang Xianglian.

Lin Koukou closed his mouth for a rare time today, stretched his neck to look at the court, and kept his hands in a fist shape, looking even more nervous than he was playing.

Xing Xiaolong and Zhou Yu looked at Lin Koukou from time to time, and they both felt funny.

"That Zhang Xianglian is not easy to deal with. Xing Xiaolong muttered at this time.

Zhou Yu nodded approvingly. Zhang Xianglian is her old rival and old friend. Before entering the venue just now, when Zhou Yu met someone, he deliberately went over to chat.

Zhou Yu admires Zhang Xianglian, she is a player of the previous generation, after more than ten years of ups and downs, she is still competing in her thirties, and her results in the past two years have been quite good.

As an athlete, success is not only about talent and hard work, but also about perseverance.

Zhang Xianglian is indeed an opponent who is not easy to deal with. Her defensive prowess is impeccable, her pace is precise and fluid, and her lower body strength is impressive. However, injuries left over from years of training and competitions, as well as lack of physical fitness, are also obvious disadvantages for Zhang Xianglian.

In the hotel room last night, Zhou Yu and Wen Jingyi analyzed Jiang Yufei's opponent together, and they all thought that Jiang Yufei's winning rate would be higher in this game.

The trend of today's battle of Jiangzhang is, at present, basically in the predictions of Zhou Yu and Wen Jingyi.

After Jiang Yufei narrowly won the first game, as soon as the second game opened, Zhang Xianglian seized the opportunity and led 4:1. Jiang Yufei tied the score again, the game fell into a stalemate, the two of them chased after me, as Zhang Xianglian exerted her strength again, after 11:9, the game entered a break.

At this time, Jiang Yufei walked to the coach's seat, through the baffle, and listened to Coach Qian analyze tactics. On the opposite side of them, the coach of the Indonesian team is also hurrying to tell Zhang Xianglian about the style of play.

As the top badminton competition, each World Championships attracts spectators from all over the world to watch and cheer on the wonderful performances of all athletes.

In the stands, many Chinese spectators beat gongs and drums to build momentum for Jiang Yufei. On the other hand, Zhang Xianglian's Indonesian compatriots are not to be outdone to cheer for their players.

"Senior sister, that's your mother, I've seen a photo of her on your phone!" Xing Xiaolong suddenly pulled Zhou Yu's arm.

According to the direction of Xing Xiaolong's fingers, Zhou Yu looked up at the big screen in front of them, and couldn't help laughing.

It turned out that the on-site cameraman pointed the camera at the audience, and at this moment, it was Coach Feng and Xu Hui's Lao Qiao who were syncing to the big screen, and the two were holding a national flag and shouting more vigorously than anyone else.

Zhou Yu noticed that under the camera, Qiao Fang and Xu Hui were sitting next to them, also holding a small national flag in their hands.

It's just that Xiao Zifeng, who was supposed to accompany him throughout the whole process, did not appear in the camera.

"My mom and they're here too!" Although there was one less person, Zhou Yu also called out happily, got up and walked towards the opposite stand, waving his hands vigorously.

Lin Koukou tilted his head and looked at Zhou Yu: "It's okay to be reserved, you now represent the image of our country." ”

"Just take care of your girlfriend!" Zhou Yu said, feeling that Qiao Fang and the others noticed this, and waved their hands more and more.

Lin Koukou snorted, took out his mobile phone and looked at it.

After a while, the game restarted, and Jiang Yufei and Zhang Xianglian returned to their respective halves.

Zhou Yu was pulled back to his seat by Xing Xiaolong, still stretching out his head to look at the other side.

As soon as the game on the field restarts, it was immediately full of gunpowder.

Jiang Yufei accelerated the speed of the attack, and Zhang Xianglian also showed her superb defensive ability and saved the ball several times.

However, as the game progressed, Zhang Xianglian's fitness problems arose.

The game was in full swing, and Lin Koukou was still staring at his mobile phone.

Xing Xiaolong also likes to worry about it, and across Zhou Yu, he pushed Lin Buckle from behind: "Brother Lin, look, Jiang Yufei is about to win!"

Lin Koukou raised his head suddenly, but he didn't seem to have the intention of watching the battle, turned his head to look at Zhou Yu, and stabbed her with his elbow.

"It's hit!" Xing Xiaolong jumped up and yelled excitedly for Chen Yufei to get the match point.

Zhou Yu didn't notice Lin Koukou's side at all, so he just shouted below: "Yufei, control the landing point, come on!"

When Zhou Yu was happy and sat back again, Lin Koukou handed the phone to her: "Look at this." ”

was almost hit in the face by Lin Koukou's mobile phone, and Zhou Yu glared at him: "What are you doing?"

"Babe...... It seems that something has happened," Lin Kou replied, and then sighed, "What a disaster this kid has!"

"Win!" Xing Xiaolong shouted again.

In the stands opposite, the Chinese audience was boiling because of Jiang Yufei's victory.

Zhou Yu had already snatched Lin Koukou's mobile phone, and after just one glance, his expression changed, and he got up and walked to the right aisle, where Director Yan was standing.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Yu and Lin Koukou, who had just been scolded by the strict guidance, were both standing on the edge of the exit.

Lin Koukou held his mobile phone and talked for a long time, and then hung up the phone and said to Zhou Yu: "My friend said that Beibei's mother took him back to the hotel from the hospital." ”

"Why?" Zhou Yu was taken aback, "Why don't you stay in the hospital?"

"There was no doctor in that hospital who could treat pediatric bone tumors, so I recommended that the child be transferred. The cost of transferable hospital is too expensive, and follow-up treatment is also a lot of money. Beibei's mother called her husband and said that she should rush back as soon as possible, and she should go directly to Beijing for treatment. Lin Koukou replied.

Zhou Yu was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "Didn't you say that Bei Bei is in pain, how can you stay in the hotel? And it will take so long to take a plane back to China." ”

Lin Koukou also sighed, simply squatted on the ground, and said deflatedly: "Lao Yan doesn't allow us to come over to help." ”

Bei Bei followed her mother to the gymnasium in the morning, and before she could get inside, she fell down, and the child immediately couldn't get up.

Lin Koukou, a friend who studied abroad in Birmingham, participated in the volunteer service of the World Championships, and happened to see this scene, so he called an ambulance for Beibei's mother, who did not understand the language, and accompanied the mother and son to the hospital.

Subsequently, the enthusiastic young man posted on Moments, hoping that everyone would help pay money to cope with the high hospital costs here.

Zhou Yu's phone rang at this time.

Seeing that it was Beibei's mother's phone, Zhou Yu hurriedly pressed the answer button and said, "Is it Sister Tingru, how is Beibei?"

"It hurts, it hurts," Beibei's mother muttered for a long time before she seemed to come back to her senses and said, "I can't ask for the money you called." ”

"Don't talk about this now, he hurts so badly, find a hospital first!" Zhou Yu urged.

Because he was not allowed to leave the team, the only thing Zhou Yu could do was to send some money to Beibei's mother, hoping to help a little.

"My husband contacted Dr. Jiang, and he said that a friend happened to be here, and asked him to help find a hospital, so that I could wait patiently for the phone first," Beibei's mother said this, and her voice choked up, "The call has never been called." ”

Zhou Yu had a flash of inspiration and said, "Sister Tingru, my boyfriend is also here, he knows a lot of people, I'll let him ask now." ”

As he spoke, Zhou Yu immediately gave Lin Koukou a look.

Lin Koukou understood, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed out.

"Thank you, I can't help it now. "Mother Bei finally cried.

"Don't worry!" Zhou Yu persuaded him, and when he saw Lin Koukou handing over his mobile phone, he hurriedly said: "Don't say it, I'll call my senior brother and tell you as soon as I have news!"

Zhou Yu hung up the phone and took the phone from Lin Koukou, but found that the other party was busy.

"Can't get through!" Zhou Yu said anxiously.

"Don't worry, why are you in a hurry!"

Zhou Yu was not in the mood to quarrel with Lin Koukou, holding a mobile phone in each hand, pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot.

Just now Zhou Yu found Yan Gui, and he wanted to ask for a leave, but the mother and son were unrelated abroad, so if they didn't help at this time, they would have to wait until one day.

As a result, Yan Dao Tie Mo selflessly rejected Zhou Yu, and only promised to go back and find a team doctor to take a look.

Zhou Yu and Lin Koukou were out of line, so they could only be in a hurry here.

"Why don't you go in yet?" Yan Gui folded back from the inside.

"We'll breathe here, we'll be in in a while!" Lin Koukou hurriedly smiled at Yan Gui.

Zhou Yu looked at Yan Gui and opened his mouth, but when he saw people looking over, he closed his mouth timidly.

"Okay, as soon as the game is over, the team doctor will go over, and you can give me an address. Yan said.

Lin Koukou glanced at Zhou Yu, and was about to speak, when his eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the front right with his finger: "Director Xiao is here!"

Zhou Yu didn't expect that at such a critical juncture, Xiao Zifeng actually appeared.

Lin Koukou had a relieved expression: "It's easy to do now!"

"What's so easy to do?" Xiao Zifeng had already walked up to Lin Koukou.

Zhou Yu was so excited that he was incoherent: "Senior brother, Beibei's illness has gone wrong again, he is in pain now, hurry up and help him find a hospital that can treat him, and he must hurry back to Beijing!"

Xiao Zifeng seemed to have gotten the news earlier, and said calmly: "I found a friend who is a doctor here, he has gone to the hotel, ready to see the child's condition, and then arrange for him to go to a specialized hospital." If all goes well, a telemedicine visit will be scheduled tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to determine the feasibility of having your child return home for treatment. ”

"Wow, what kind of speed is this!" Lin Koukou suddenly exclaimed.

Zhou Yu looked at Xiao Zifeng at this time and couldn't help laughing.

The senior brother is still the original senior brother, and nothing can be difficult for him.

"These two people, they panic me when they encounter something, what can't be solved?"

Lin Koukou scratched his head: "That little guy has a good relationship with Zhou Yu, something happened at this time, and he is not familiar with life abroad, let's not pretend not to know!"

Having said this, Lin Koukou looked at Xiao Zifeng and flattered: "Director Xiao, I know that there is no problem that cannot be solved where you are." ”

Xiao Zifeng smiled, reached out and patted Lin Koukou's shoulder, then crossed him and walked in front of Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu looked at Xiao Zifeng and said, "Senior brother, Bei Bei came here to watch me play." I feel so bad. ”

Director Yan snorted, "Don't expect someone to support you, you can be undisciplined." ”

"Did I hear it, I have no position or authority now, and Director Yan won't buy my account!" Xiao Zifeng looked at Director Yan and teased.

Zhou Yu pursed his mouth and subconsciously hid behind Xiao Zifeng. She didn't say that she was undisciplined, she just expressed her feelings to her senior brother, and she was too suspicious of strict guidance.

Probably thinking that Zhou Yu's expression was funny, Director Yan couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth, shook his head and said: "I advise you to go back quickly, turn around and let Lao Qian see this, and you can play it with a racket!"

"I'll say a few words and leave. Xiao Zifeng looked at Coach Yan.

"Cheng, you two talk first, I'll stabilize the old money. Lin Koukou said, turned around and walked inside.

Yan Gui laughed and laughed, nodded Xiao Zifeng with his hand, and also walked in.

"Anxious?" Xiao Zifeng asked Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu nodded vigorously, and then said uneasily: "Why are you here?" or else, senior brother will go to the hotel to see Beibei!"

"Pick up your mother and them back first, and then go to the hospital, I have already told Beibei's mother on the phone," Xiao Zifeng explained, "You can't leave a bunch of old men and old ladies here, right?"

Looking at Xiao Zifeng, Zhou Yu laughed again. Such a proper boyfriend, she really wants to show off.

"Don't worry, everything over there has been arranged. Xiao Zifeng said again.

Zhou Yu suddenly realized: "Doctor Jiang said that he was looking for friends to help them, referring to you?"

"If it's not me, who else could it be?" Xiao Zifeng said amusedly, looking at Zhou Yu with a gentle look in his eyes, and then stretched out his hand and stroked her cheek.

The two did not speak for a moment, only looked at each other fixedly.

"Instruction Xiao, the alarm ahead!" Lin Koukou stuck his head out from the exit, "Someone is coming over with a racket!"

Zhou Yu and Xiao Zifeng turned their heads at the same time, and after a few seconds, Zhou Yu pulled Xiao Zifeng: "You go first, don't let Coach Qian see it, he will talk about it again for a long time when he turns back." ”

Xiao Zifeng smiled but didn't answer, took a step forward, hugged Zhou Yu in the end, and then kissed her affectionately in the hair.

Zhou Yu didn't care about the public, and buried his face in Xiao Zifeng's chest.

After so many twists and turns, only such a hug made Zhou Yu sure that her senior brother had really returned.

There was a flash of light not far away, and the two people who were immersed in the warmth did not find it.

On the fourth day of the game, Zhou Yu easily won the opponent in the 1/8 finals and successfully cleared the customs.

Because the next day was the quarterfinals, Zhou Yu watched the mixed doubles match between Wei Qingqing and Feng Xu for a few minutes, and was urged by Coach Qian to go back to the hotel with Jiang Yufei to rest.

While waiting for the bus outside the gymnasium, Zhou Yu picked up his mobile phone again and called Beibei's mother.

Before coming out of the hotel at noon, Zhou Yu received a call from Xiao Zifeng, and the hospital in Birmingham had given Bei Bei preliminary treatment, and the child's pain had been relieved. In the afternoon, Dr. Jiang will conduct a teleconsultation and will decide when the child can leave for China, depending on his condition. And the medical team in Beijing is also ready, just waiting for Bei Bei to return, and the operation can be performed immediately.

Beibei's mother's phone was quickly connected, and a child's voice came from the phone.

"Beibei, are you okay?" Zhou Yu immediately asked.

"Good. "Bei Bei is weak.

Zhou Yu's heart tugged again, and he didn't know what to say all of a sudden.

"Did you win today's game?" asked Beibei.

"If I win, who am I, how can I lose?" Zhou Yu pretended to be relaxed:

The child was silent for a long time on the other side, and suddenly asked, "Will I die?"

Zhou Yu was stunned, felt something, and choked in his throat.

"Uncle Xiao came here again just now, take my mother to see the doctor," Bei Bei sighed like an adult, "They think I don't understand, but in fact, I already knew, and I may ...... at any time Not anymore. ”

"What nonsense?" Zhou Yu couldn't help but get excited, "Why did you die? Aren't you my little apprentice? You haven't played well with me yet, so you think about those who are out of tune, are you going to live up to my expectations of you?"

Although the voice was stern, Zhou Yu's eyes turned red.

Jiang Yufei noticed Zhou Yu's expression and looked at her: "Senior sister, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Yu shook his head, knowing that his tone was too blunt just now, and slowed down his voice again: "It's no big deal, Bei Bei will definitely get better, you must also get better, Mom and Dad love you so much, many of us care about you, no matter how big the difficulty, we will accompany you to overcome it together." ”

On the other end of the phone, Bei Bei seemed to laugh: "Uncle Xiao also said the same, he told me about Coach Zhou today, and he said that only those who refuse to give up when they encounter any difficulties can defeat all difficulties." ”

"Yes, you should too. Zhou Yu encouraged.

Bei Bei's side was silent, and Zhou Yu didn't dare to urge him, so he just waited quietly with his mobile phone.

After a while, Bei Bei opened his mouth again: "Coach Zhou, do you think I will get better?"

"I don't think that I have 100% confidence that you will recover quickly," Zhou Yu said without hesitation: "Just like I am also confident, I will definitely be able to win this championship!"

"Then let's make a bet," Bei Bei laughed again: "If Coach Zhou wins the championship, I won't die." ”

Zhou Yu: "......"

Zhou Yu finally discovered that the seemingly innocent and innocent Bei Bei had such a deep fear buried in his heart after years of illness and torture. At this moment, Zhou Yu was so distressed that he was suffering so much for a child who should not have suffered so much at this age.

"I, Zhou Yu, will never lose," Zhou Yu replied loudly: "So, you are not allowed to admit defeat!"
