Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, the people of the whole country are reuniting with their families, and the second floor of the canteen is also rare and extraordinarily lively.

Since many team members stayed in the team for training this year and did not go home for the New Year, everyone discussed celebrating the New Year together, and later learned that Shu Ran's birthday was also Chinese New Year's Eve, so everyone decided to hide from Shu Ran and surprise her.

Originally, everyone was worried that Shu Ran would find out in advance, but she turned out to be fine, buried herself in training all day, and even forgot that today was Chinese New Year's Eve.

The heat of the hot pot gradually rose, and everyone's faces were smoked red.

The athletes couldn't drink alcohol and couldn't drink alcohol, but everyone was in high spirits and chatted over freshly squeezed juices.

After eating, everyone stayed in the cafeteria to watch the Spring Festival Gala together.

In recent years, the programs of the Spring Festival Gala have become more and more boring, and Shu Ran has not watched the Spring Festival Gala for three or four years.

But today, it is clear that the show is still boring, but the smile on her face has not been suppressed.

It turns out that it is not that the flavor of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker, but that there are fewer and fewer people reunited, so there is more attention to the Spring Festival Gala.

The spirits of the middle-aged people present were not as good as those of the young people, and they went to the empty dormitory building to rest after chatting until ten o'clock.

The Shu couple couldn't open their eyes for a long time.

Fu Yiqing immediately got up to send the two to the dormitory area to rest, but there was a hand in front of him.

Shu Ran raised her head, "Mom and Dad, I'll take you over." ”

Of course, the Shu couple did not object, and Fu Yiqing did not insist, only asked Shu Ran to pay attention to the road when he came back.

Coming out of the cafeteria, the hustle and bustle in my ears disappeared.

There is a street lamp standing between every two plane trees, and the yellow and clear light is projected, and some halos are mottled by the branches, and suddenly from the boiling voices just now to this quiet road, it is suddenly a little bleak.

A family of three walked side by side to the right, no one made a sound, the footsteps were quiet, and the sound of the wheels of the suitcase was infinitely amplified.

Entering the dormitory building, Shu Ran asked the dormitory manager for the room card, and was about to enter the elevator, but was stopped by Shu Yutian, "Okay, then your mother and I know how to go, you can go back." ”

Shu Ran smiled faintly, "It's okay, it's just a few steps." ”

Shu Yutian: "It's just a few steps, it's not necessary." ”

Shu Ran insisted on sending it, and the Shu couple had to let her go.

Who made her their most precious daughter?

After settling her parents, Shu Ran was relieved to go out, but saw Shu Yutian follow her all the way to the door of the dormitory building.

Shu Ran: "Dad, go back quickly." ”

Shu Yutian: "I'll send you over." "He looked natural and didn't seem to think anything was wrong.

Shu Ran said "ah", and couldn't help but smile and reminded, "After I sent you, you sent me back?"

Shu Yutian looked up, the lights were dim, and there seemed to be no end to this road, he couldn't help frowning, and his tone became more firm, "This street light is not very bright, aren't you afraid to go alone?" Don't say it, I'll send you." ”

Shu Ran tilted her head, "But I just sent you over, didn't I come for nothing?"

Shu Yutian: "You sent us here to recognize the road, and now I already know the road." ”

Knowing that his father was very stubborn in caring about him, Shu Ran was so good that he finally dispelled the idea of sending her back to the cafeteria.

"Dad, I'm leaving. Shu Ran took a step forward and turned around again.

Shu Yutian: "Send me a message when it's time." ”

"......" didn't know, and thought she was going to go far away, but in fact she just walked 800 meters to the cafeteria.

In order to reassure his father, Shu Ran still nodded.

Shu Ran took two steps, and a voice came from behind, "Ranran." ”

"Dad?"

Shu Yutian's eyes were loving, "Whether you are a world champion or not, you are a good daughter of me and your mother." ”

Shu Ran was only slightly stunned, the coldness in her eyes was covered by warmth, and she smiled lightly, "You go back quickly, how cold it is outside." ”

"It's not cold. Shu Yutian smiled generously, but shuddered violently, followed by another sneeze.

The father and daughter met their eyes, stunned for a moment, and then laughed non-stop.

Under Shu Ran's urging, Shu Yutian finally turned around, but did not move, and Shu Ran had to leave quickly.

It's quiet, it's dark, but it's warm.

Even if she didn't look back, Shu Ran could imagine a caring gaze behind her watching her departing back.

Four years ago, she fought against the odds, and four years later, with the support and encouragement of so many people, at least psychologically, she has become invincible.

Throughout the night, Shu Ran listened to everyone's jokes, and she was already busy just laughing.

Just after the Spring Festival, the athletes of the national team once again devoted themselves to intense training.

The past experience made Shu Ran dare not have too heavy gains and losses, but it can't be completely without gains and losses, how to measure the degree in between, no one knows, what Shu Ran can do is to do every action.

Qin Liubei asserted that as long as Shu Ran's foot injury does not recur, it is inevitable to enter the Winter Olympics.

But the biggest problem is also the foot injury.

If the pressure on the right ankle is too high, the foot injury can recur at any time.

But fortunately, when he was training with Genkura in mid-August, he had told Shu Ran to learn to spread the pressure.

There are many ways to slow down before you get into a slide, or to use your knees wisely when you land, but the focus is on how to use it and how you can do it.

*

Before dawn, Shu Ran opened her eyes, her eyes shining, as if she had been waiting for dawn for a long time and had not waited for the sun.

The hand in the quilt reached the head of the bed, reached the mobile phone, pressed the lock screen button, the dazzling light on the screen was a little dazzling, Shu Ran immediately closed her eyes, and waited for her eyes to adapt to the brightness before opening her eyes.

Three.

I left for Finland at nine o'clock.

Shu Ran frowned and let out a long sigh.

Three days later, the World Championships will be held, which will directly determine the 24 athletes participating in the Winter Olympics.

Contrary to her previous thoughts, because her foot injury could recur at any time, the competition in the Olympic qualifying tournament was more intense, so she had to qualify for the Winter Olympics at this World Championships.

As long as she advances, she will have almost a year to train for the Winter Olympics.

Thinking of this, Shu Ran unconsciously clenched her fists and secretly made up her mind in her heart.

Shu Ran came out of the incident three years ago, but Fu Yiqing couldn't come out.

As long as he thought of Shu Ran's painful appearance of falling on the ice several times, Fu Yiqing couldn't help but worry, so much so that he didn't close his eyes all night.

Lying in the room for a while, when he was idle, he took out a pen and paper to calculate the points for Shu Ran.

At seven o'clock, I sent a message asking if Shu Ran had gotten up, but she never received the message, and no one answered the phone.

In this competition, Shu Ran will go to Finland with the team.

It wasn't early, so he entered the dormitory building and was about to call Shu Ran to get up.

However, after knocking on the door for a long time, no one responded.

"Coach Fu?" the girl's voice was well-behaved but unfamiliar.

Fu Yiqing's eyes met Chen Jiahe, and only listened to her, "Early in the morning, I heard movement from Senior Sister Shu Ran's room, as if there was a sound of a suitcase, it was quite early at that time, and I saw that the time was only five o'clock." ”

Fu Yiqing had a consideration in his heart, "Thank you." ”

I went out at five o'clock, except for going to the cafeteria for breakfast, there was not much time left for training, so Shu Ran should not be at the ice rink.

The closer he got to the dance studio, the more Fu Yiqing confirmed his guess.

Through the glass door of the dance studio, I saw Shu Ran inside.

Shu Ran jumped profusely and sweated, and finally exhausted her physical strength, panting and walking over to get the towel, and looked at it, the towel was not on the chair.

Fu Yiqing walked towards her and handed over a towel.

She took it and wiped her sweat, "Thank you." ”

Fu Yiqing didn't ask Shu Ran why she came to the dance studio to practice before leaving, nor did she ask why she got up so early, the reasons were nothing more than a few, he guessed, and didn't want her to care more, so he didn't mention it.

The two arrived at the agreed meeting point early, and the team members came one after another.

In addition to Shu Ran in the women's singles, Chen Jiahe will also go together, the men's singles is one more person than the women's singles, Wu Xincheng and Shen Yu in pairs skating also brought their younger sisters and younger brothers, as well as Wan Yushan and Li Yuanxing in ice dance.

Add to that their coaches, and the team looks exceptionally big.

Huo Guang also got up early and made the final oath meeting to everyone.

The bus drove straight to the airport, and the familiar location disappeared from view little by little like a white horse.

While her empty gaze was on Fu Yiqing, she thought of something and frowned.

He couldn't help but find it amused, so he asked, "Don't tell me you forgot to bring your skates." ”

Shu Ran shook her head.

Qin Liubei on the side interjected, "I'll go, is it a performance costume?"

Shu Ran: "Do you think Nadilova will participate in the World Championships?"

Three months ago, Nadilova withdrew from the competition due to a lower back injury at the GPF, and officials said that she was seriously injured and needed to recuperate for a period of time, and whether she could participate in this World Championships depends on Nadilova's actual situation.

Qin Liubei raised his eyebrows and clasped his arms in his hands, "Even if she doesn't participate, I believe that their country can easily get two or more 'Winter Olympics tickets', and she will still be able to participate in the Winter Olympics at that time." ”

That's true.

Fu Yiqing looked at her and joked, "Are you still worried about your opponent?"

Shu Ran: "I wanted to see if it was my revised performance that was impressive, or if their country's figure skating machines were superior. ”

It is precisely because of the outstanding achievements of the Russian youngsters in the women's singles field in recent years, coupled with the fact that they are all under the same ruthless coach, so these youngsters have a nickname "Figure Skating Machine".

Qin Liubei clapped his hands and said, "Not bad, this is a bit like Fu Yiqing's student, very proud!"

Because of Shu Ran's legendary experience, the media paid special attention to her.

The short program is still grouped on the basis of points.

Shu Ran was in the last group.

Looking at most of the unfamiliar names on the list, Shu Ran, who was in a good mood, smiled.

It is precisely because most of the women's singles players in the same period have chosen to retire that Shu Ran and Christina will undoubtedly be ranked in the last group.

In this way, older players also have the benefit of being older.

The day of open training was concluded, followed by a short program draw.

This time, the number of women's singles participants was 34, and Shu Ran drew No. 34, which was the last place to appear.

Christina was the first player in the same group, with No. 32 and No. 33 respectively Japan's Qiao Zhenrina and the United States' Zhang Ziqing.

The game is on the verge of breaking out.
