No ads in the whole word] Chapter 148 before the game (second update)

Just when the third brother squeezed into the crowd to ask what was going on, the leader of the Shangyang City team also squeezed in from outside.

"What happened to you, what are you doing here?" The leader of the Shangyang City team, who was also wearing a red "color" sportswear, frowned and asked, when he came out just now, he chatted with an old friend who also came over to lead the team, and came out a few minutes late, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

"Team Leader Liu, it's like this......" Ma Juan and Liu Xia, two "female" children, explained the situation one by one.

"Are you Li Yan?" Ma Juan and Liu Xia inevitably mentioned Li Yan's name in the process of narrating, but they didn't expect that after they finished speaking, Team Leader Liu and the third brother showed great curiosity about the name Li Yan, and they asked almost in unison.

"I'm Li Yan. Li Yan nodded and said, Team Leader Liu knew that he was not surprised, in fact, in Shangyang, many leaders of the municipal party committee and municipal government committees had more or less heard of his name, but the third brother actually expressed great interest in his name, which made him feel a little puzzled.

"Li Yan, I'm afraid you don't know me, I'm Han Hu, Han Biao's third brother, I heard the fourth brother mention you, I really didn't expect to meet you here, haha. The third brother seemed to be very "excited" to be able to see Li Yan, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to shake it with him, and introduced himself.

"You are the third brother of Han Laosi, it is really a blessing, I am good friends with the fourth brother, you are his third brother, that is, my third brother, hello third brother. Li Yan didn't expect to see Han Laosi's third brother in this place, but thinking about Han Laosi's status in the provincial capital, his third brother would definitely not be far behind, and it was reasonable for Han Laosi to mention himself to his third brother.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, you still call me the third child, hehe, I still have to carry out a mission today and can't leave, another day I will call the fourth child, let's find a place to get together, what do you think?" Han Laosan said with a smile.

Han Laosan's cautious appearance towards Li Yan made the previous security guard stunned, and he was shocked in his heart, and he kept guessing what the origin of this young man was, how could he have seen his own head, Han Laosan, who was famous in the provincial capital, was so cautious, not only called himself the third child, but also used the honorific word of you, and at the same time, he was also glad in his heart, fortunately he didn't have any disrespect for this young man just now, otherwise...... Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat involuntarily broke out on his head, and at the same time, the eyes that looked at Xin Bao and several other athletes became unkind.

"Okay, I just came to the provincial capital today, and I'm thinking about 'taking time' to talk to the fourth child, the key depends on when you can 'draw' your background, the security here is a big deal, and I can't be careless. Li Yan said with a smile.

"Team Leader Liu, this Li Yan injured Xin Bao, I'm afraid it will affect his game tomorrow. The athletes who were with Xin Bao saw that the relationship between the security guard and Li Yan was getting closer and closer, and they knew that it was impossible to expect them to be angry for themselves, so they turned their attention to their team leader.

"You shut up for me, Li Yan, Xin Bao and they didn't do it right, I asked them to apologize to you, for the sake of their game tomorrow, you can spare them." Team Leader Liu interrupted the words of several athletes in a cold voice, and immediately changed his smiling face and asked Li Yan, just now Liu Xia and Ma Juan's narrative mentioned that Li Yan was still a student of Shiyi, and as far as he knew, Secretary Lin's quasi-"daughter" seemed to be studying in Shiyi, and the name Li Yan was very obscure, and the renaming rate was very low, plus some information he got from Han Laosan, these made him completely sure that the Li Yan in front of him was the quasi-"daughter" of Lin Weidong, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Son-in-law, where is such a character that he can afford as a small deputy director of the Sports Management Bureau, and at the same time, he also has a trace of thought, if he takes this opportunity to have a good relationship with Li Yan, maybe Li Yan will be happy to say a few good words for himself in front of Lin Weidong for a while, so that it will be beneficial to his own future, as for the fact that Li Yan is Ma Juan's boyfriend that Liu Xia just said, he has already been selectively filtered.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that these athletes of yours and I have a little misunderstanding, and if you make it clear, it's fine, just apologize. Li Yan didn't want to hold on to Xin Bao and them, so he waved his hand and said to Team Leader Liu.

"A few of you come here, apologize to Li Yan, and be honest with me in the future, otherwise you will be disqualified from the competition!" Although Li Yan didn't plan to let a few people apologize to him, Team Leader Liu still turned his head and scolded a few athletes with gloomy faces standing on the side, asking them to apologize to Li Yan.

"I'm sorry. Several athletes were forced by the "lewdness" of Team Leader Liu, so they had to walk up to Li Yan one by one and apologize to him.

When they apologized, Li Yan had been standing there with a smile on his face, and he didn't say anything like not to apologize, because he clearly showed almost undisguised disbelief from these guys, but Li Yan didn't care too much, in his opinion, these guys who were about the same age as him were clearly children who were usually used to it, they couldn't even hide their emotions, and what threat could they pose to him?

After apologizing, Team Leader Liu left with the athletes first, and Han Laosan saw that there was nothing wrong here, because there was still a task, so he exchanged contact information for Li Yan and left, and now only Ma Juan and Liu Xia are left in place.

"I really can't see that you can make Xin Bao suffer. Liu Xia looked Li Yan up and down and said, as if she knew him for the first time.

"It's nothing, it's just a little bigger. Li Yan said with a smile.

"It's just that my hands are bigger, I'm also an athlete, you can't fool me. Liu Xia did not agree with Li Yan's self-humility.

"Okay, you don't have to get to the bottom of it, everyone is gathered, let's go. Ma Juan interrupted Liu Xia's questioning and said, "Li Yan, let's go." After speaking, he pulled Liu Xia and left.

"Han Laosan, Han Laosi, hehe. After Li Yan saw Ma Juan leave, he turned his head and saw Han Laosan on duty with a walkie-talkie in the distance, and felt that this world was really small, and he was able to meet Han Laosi's brother here, he didn't bother Han Laosan again, and drove his car to the parking lot and left.

…………

The Provincial Games will be held for a total of seven days, and Ma Juan's two competitions, the women's 800m and 3,000 meters, will be held in the first four days, and the competition venue will be at the Provincial Gymnasium.

The next morning, when Ma Juan took a bus to the Provincial Gymnasium early in the morning, she saw Li Yan standing at the "door" of the gymnasium waiting for her from a distance.

"Come on, fat girl!" Li Yan said to Ma Juan, who ran to his side.

"It's just the group preliminaries, so it's definitely fine. When she came to the gymnasium early in the morning, she was very happy to see Li Yan, because she had a strong self-confidence, she didn't worry about her right to qualify from the group.

After chatting with Li Yan for a few words, she went to the gymnasium, because there was a "female" 800-meter group preliminaries at 10 o'clock in the morning, and she needed to report inside in advance.

"Juan, do you see it, the short 'female' child sitting over there is Tian Caicai, your biggest competitor for winning the championship this time. After reporting, Ma Juan and Liu Xia came to the athletes' waiting area to find two seats and sat down, Liu Xia pointed to the back of a short "girl" child wearing a blue "color" sportswear sitting not far away.

As if feeling Liu Xia's guidance behind her, the 'female' child turned her head to look, stood up from her seat and walked over to them.

"Who are you Ma Juan?" asked the 'female' child as she approached Ma Juan and Liu Xia, her actions attracting the attention of many athletes around her.

"I am, do you have anything to do?" Ma Juan asked as she looked at the tall and arrogant short "girl" child standing in front of her.

"I just want to see what kind of athlete can break the 3,000-meter record, I heard that this time you are determined to win the 3,000-meter and 800-meter championships, I admit that you are very strong in the 3,000-meter championship, but the 800-meter championship will definitely not be you. Tian Caicai said coldly, raised her head to Ma Juan after speaking, and left like a proud swan.

"Isn't it just breaking the 800-meter record, what is there to be proud of? Liu Xia looked at Tian Caicai's back dissatisfiedly and muttered.

"Only after the game does she know who is strong and who is weak, and now saying so much nonsense can only bring out the fragility in her heart. Ma Juan said with a chuckle.

"That's right, this morning, Juan ran hard, and the preliminaries broke that damn record, see if she can still be arrogant. Liu Xia nodded again and again.

"Anyway, we just ran as hard as we could, do you think the record is so easy to break? Ma Juan said with a smile.

This is Team Leader Liu coming from outside, and Ma Juan and Liu Xia stood up and greeted him.

"Seeing that you two are in good shape, don't be nervous when you compete for a while, and play your usual training level normally, and our goal will be achieved. Team Leader Liu encouraged the two of them, and then sat down with them in the athletes' waiting area.

"Ma Juan, are you in the same class as you?" asked Team Leader Liu.

"Yes. Ma Juan replied, mentioning Li Yan in front of the leader, she was a little embarrassed, and her face was slightly red.

"Hehe, it seems that he has a good relationship with you, and he also accompanies you to participate in the competition. Team Leader Liu smiled and glanced at Ma Juan, whose face was reddish, and said.

Liu Xia glanced at Team Leader Liu in surprise, she remembered that she had told him yesterday that Li Yan was Ma Juan's boyfriend, why did he ask.

"Li Yan is my tablemate, and we have been very good since the beginning. Ma Juan said, she remembered the time when Li Yan sat behind her in Fenghuang Township and often quarreled with her, and she was incorrigibly "drug" in love with him at that time, thinking of these, she unconsciously "revealed" a sweet smile on her face.

"Ma Juan, can you talk to him next time you see him, if it's convenient for him, I want to treat him to a meal. Team Leader Liu said in a somewhat pleading tone.

"I'll tell you what you mean, but he won't be able to do it if he doesn't promise me. Ma Juan glanced at Team Leader Liu, and now he looked at him a little nervously, so he smiled at him and said.

"As long as you convey it, it doesn't matter if he doesn't agree. Team Leader Liu heard that Ma Juan agreed, and said with a smile on his face.

After the goal was achieved, Team Leader Liu asked Ma Juan about Li Ling's situation, and then encouraged her and Liu Xia, because there were other players who were going to play, so he left.

"Juan, your boyfriend is so big, Team Leader Liu also wants to invite him to dinner. After Team Leader Liu left, Liu Xia said excitedly, in her eyes, Team Leader Liu was already a big official, when he was in the sports school, even if the principal of the school saw him, his face was full of smiles, but now this big official in her eyes actually came to beg Ma Juan to invite Li Yan to dinner, even if she was just Ma Juan's friend, she also felt that her face was very bright, as if the person Liu wanted to invite was her.

"Hehe, Li Yan and Secretary Lin of the Municipal Party Committee are relatives at home, otherwise where would he have the leisure to invite Li Yan to dinner, he just looks at Secretary Lin standing behind Li Yan. Ma Juan chuckled and said, although she usually looks coquettish in front of Li Yan, she is actually an extremely smart person, and she sees many things very thoroughly.

"I see, adults are really complicated, and you have to consider interests in everything you do. Liu Xia listened to Ma Juan's analysis and couldn't help but sigh.

That's why people say that only classmates and comrades-in-arms are relationships worth cherishing in life, probably because these relationships are often not mixed with so many entanglements of interests. Ma Juan said with a smile.

"Hehe, then what is the relationship between us, it doesn't seem to be mixed with many interests. Liu Xia listened to Ma Juan's words, frowned and thought about it, and then said with a smile, as if she was happy that she and Ma Juan could have a pure friendship.

"Our relationship is probably similar to that of our classmates. Ma Juan said.

…………

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the "female" 800-meter group preliminaries officially began, Ma Juan was assigned to the second group, Liu Xia was in the first group, and what made Liu Xia feel more pressure was that Tian Caicai, the "female" 800-meter record holder of the Provincial Games, was also assigned to the first group.

"Liu Xia, be confident, there is not only one place to qualify for the group, even if you can't outrun Tian Caicai, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't get out of the line. When Ma Juan accompanied Liu Xia to the check-in office, she saw that Liu Xia had been looking sad, so she smiled and comforted.

"Thank you, Juan, I will definitely do my best to fight for it. When she came to the check-in office, Liu Xia said to Ma Juan before leaving.

"I'll cheer you on. Ma Juan high-fived her and said.

"Ma Juan, I'll win you. At this time, Tian Caicai walked past Ma Juan, and then turned his head to Ma Juan and said provocatively.

"See you in the finals. Ma Juan said with a smile that she did not leave the check-in office, because it was time for her to play after the first group game.
