"Yes, that's it, raise your arms a little higher, just like I taught you in the morning. ”

Xu Jingyu reminded Shu Ran on the ice with applause which movement was in place and which action was not in place, Shu Ran slid along with the music, the pace was in line with the music point, and the slow leg movements showed the sadness of the music and the softness of the body lines.

The last note floated out of the stereo, and Xu Jingyu was still instructing Shu Ran on the ice to make some hand movements.

Qin Liubei's flexible fingers tapped on the keyboard, and then he said to Fu Yiqing, "It seems that the training effect during this period of time is good, Shu Ran's original jumping strength is not bad, the data of footwork and rotation are basically stable, if you want to rise again, unless you specialize in technique." ”

Fu Yiqing glanced at him, Qin Liubei smiled and spread his hands, "OK, when I didn't say it." ”

The two people on the field had almost practiced their movements, Xu Jingyu slid out first, and Shu Ran followed closely and wanted to appear but was stopped by Fu Yiqing.

Shu Ran looked up at him and only listened to him, "Slide again with the music just now." ”

Shu Ran didn't think much about it, and skated back to the center of the ice, waiting for the music to play.

Xu Jingyu, who has been here for more than a month, has a general understanding of Fu Yiqing's training mode, and there has never been a time in the past month that has not started training according to the schedule, which always makes people a little uneasy.

Qin Liubei obviously realized this, and immediately played music.

The music is the movie interlude of "Murder on the Orient Express", a movie that Shu Ran just watched two days ago, the slow music is like rippling in circles on the calm lake, and the soft sunlight is always mixed with a hint of gloom.

Shu Ran changed her movements with the changes in the music, the rhythm of the music was tense, and her speed increased.

It's just that compared to just now, the movements are a little inadequate, and even not standard, even the arm movements taught by Xu Jingyu just now are not standard.

The music stopped abruptly, and Shu Ran stopped moving.

Knowing what he probably did wrong, Shu Ran slid out of the field and looked at Fu Yiqing with a slight uneasiness, "Coach?"

"What do you think?"

Fu Yiqing finally spoke up, but the problem was to go north towards Qin Liu.

Qin Liubei looked at the data on the screen and analyzed, "I probably understand what you mean, it's indeed a problem. ”

The two of them were so hidden when they spoke, Xu Jingyu was anxious, "You understand, I don't understand, what's wrong?"

Qin Liubei didn't miss any opportunity to taunt Xu Jingyu, "It's normal for single-celled creatures to not understand the language of higher humans. ”

So the two of them turned on the bickering mode again.

Fu Yiqing approached Shu Ran and looked at her condescendingly, "Don't you feel that your movements are not in place, why?"

Immediately followed by Xu Jingyu's gaze also fell on Shu Ran.

Shu Ran twisted her eyebrows, pursed her lips and lowered her head, "I really couldn't keep up with the music just now." ”

When she skated just now, she felt that she couldn't keep up with the music, so she didn't have time to do every move, let alone get it right.

"Not just now. Fu Yiqing shook his head, "You've always had this problem." ”

"But when I took her in there just now, didn't she behave quite well? It should have been just an accident, right?" Xu Jingyu said.

"No mistake can be hidden from his eyes. Qin Liubei closed the computer with a smile and hugged Xu Jingyu's shoulder, "Goldfish, go, are you hungry, let's eat." ”

Xu Jingyu bumped her elbow back, but she couldn't break free of Qin Liubei's shackles, and was forcibly led to the door by him.

"Bird flu, you let go, you don't have an appetite to eat with you, understand?"

Qin Liubei also let go of his hand with disgust, "Shut up, stupid, don't you see that the two of them have something to say?"

Xu Jingyu was stunned, and after calming down, she gave Qin Liubei an elbow attack.

*

There were only the two of them left in the ice rink, and for a while, the ice rink seemed even more empty, and Fu Yiqing's voice was also amplified by the echo.

"Looks like you still don't know why. ”

Shu Ran nodded silently.

Fu Yiqing walked to the side of the chair and sat down, and motioned for Shu Ran to come over as well.

"When Xu Jingyu was with you just now, because she was there, your subconscious told you that her applause would interfere with your hearing, so you would hum music in your heart, and once there was no interference from others, you would instinctively choose to listen to music with your ears. Fu Yiqing said, "Do you admit it?"

Shu Ran answered Fu Yiqing's question with a surprised expression.

That's true, just now she was worried that her hearing would be disturbed, so she kept humming in her heart, but she could hear it clearly later, so she no longer sang silently in her heart.

It's just that she didn't think that she couldn't keep up with the rhythm because of this.

Shu Ran couldn't help but start worrying, it was already the end of December, and she would arrange a program in May and June next year to prepare for the competition in the second half of the year, but her progress is not obvious now, and her mistakes are frequently revealed.

"But it's not a big deal, as long as you change it slowly, you can save more time to improve your training. ”

Shu Ran looked at him sideways, a little suspicious that he was comforting himself, "Really?"

"Every season, the program is music that you have practiced and listened to countless times, because of habit, you don't even need music to complete a performance, and now every few days it will give you a new piece of music, because you are not used to it, it is normal for you to not be able to keep up with the music, and the purpose of letting you practice is to cultivate your artistic appeal. So that's not the purpose of talking to you today. ”

"Huh?"

"There's a question, and I think it's necessary to hear your answer first. ”

Whenever she saw Fu Yiqing's serious expression, Shu Ran always felt that something big was about to happen, and her palms couldn't help but break out layer after layer of fine sweat, she rubbed her palms, "Well, you ask." ”

"You were first asked to train because of my bet with the ISU president, so what are your thoughts, are you training to win an Olympic gold medal, or are you just just loving figure skating?"

Shu Ran was stunned by the question, and said in a daze, "This ...... Does it matter?"

"Of course, the training intensity in the later stage is increased, how can you have the motivation to persist without a purpose?"

"Uh......"

Shu Ran thought about it left and right, but still didn't think of an answer, and said, "Does there have to be a reason?"

Seeing her like this, Fu Yiqing didn't force it, got up and said, "There is still more than a month before the New Year, give me an answer after the New Year." ”

Shu Ran sat alone on a row of chairs, full of thoughts.

She could probably understand Fu Yiqing's intentions.

If you want to win the Winter Olympics, it is not enough to insist and work hard, but also to show the belief that you will break the boat.

*

The New Year is approaching, and Shu Ran received a call from her parents very early, asking her when she will go home for the New Year.

In previous years, I went home the week before the year, but this time it was different from the past, and I don't know when Fu Yiqing will have a holiday.

A few days later, the four of them were having dinner together when Xu Jingyu received a call from her mother.

Between the words, I also asked her when she would go home for the New Year.

Hung up the phone, without waiting for Xu Jingyu to ask for instructions, Fu Yiqing said with a straight face, "You can go home at any time." ”

Hearing this, Shu Ran, who was buried in her rice bowl, raised her head and cast a look of anticipation at Fu Yiqing, but she didn't know if the other party didn't notice it or didn't understand what she meant, Fu Yiqing didn't answer.

The next day, Xu Jingyu packed up her things and left the villa, and Shu Ran looked at the back of her leaving, suddenly lost.

There is still half a month before the Chinese New Year, and it is still too late.

When it came to the days when she went home in the past, Fu Yiqing still didn't let go, Shu Ran was embarrassed to ask, but her parents couldn't wait, saying that City B would pick her up and go home three days later, and Fu Yiqing would not let her go.

Shu Ran counted the days with her fingers, and she had hope for her daily training.

On the appointed day, Shu Ran opened WeChat as soon as she woke up, but she did not receive the news that her parents went to City B.

Did you wake up late?

Shu Ran didn't think much about it, and still trained as usual.

Today's ice ended with a squatting spin, and I heard crisp applause outside the field, followed by a "Ranran" that made Shu Ran forget all her worries.

She slid out of the room with a smile and hugged her mother Li Zhiqing hard, "Mom, I miss you so much." ”

Li Zhiqing's eyes were a little red, and he stroked his daughter's hair, "I miss you with your father too." ”

"How did you get here?"

Shu Yutian, the father on the side, looked at his daughter with a smile on his face, "It was your Coach Fu who asked us to come over and see your performance, I didn't expect you to skate so well." ”

Her parents have always spoiled her, but they also know that this project is very damaging to the body, so they have not watched her training or performance much, because they understand that behind every movement is a pile of sweat and tears.

Shu Ran glanced at Fu Yiqing, a little embarrassed, "It's all Coach Fu who taught well." ”

Fu Yiqing stepped forward at the right time and said, "Shu Ran's training in the morning is almost over, why don't you two stay and have lunch together?"

Fu Yiqing's words made Shu Ran feel strange, it was the New Year, her parents appeared here at this time, obviously to pick her up, why didn't Fu Yiqing seem to understand?

Shu Ran quickly figured out that Fu Yiqing lived abroad all the year round, and he must have forgotten that there was still the New Year.

She decided to remind Fu Yiqing appropriately after eating later.

When facing people other than Shu Ran, Qin Liubei usually shows his side as a normal person, plus he is used to using data to speak at all levels, and the tone of his own scholarly style is more convincing, so the relationship between Qin Liubei and Shu Ran's parents has taken a step forward.

After Qin Liubei's data explanation, Shu Yutian and his wife quickly understood that the gambling within the ISU is a good thing for their daughter who loves figure skating, at least she can get better resources and more connections than other figure skaters in China.

In the past, they persuaded Shu Ran to retire because they were worried that she would not get any good results while destroying her body, but now that Qin Liubei has drawn a big pie for them, they are naturally half relieved.

Shu Yutian patted Shu Ran's shoulder and sighed earnestly, "Ranran, take good care of yourself outside, seeing you make such great progress, Dad is very proud, but you still have to pay attention to your body, don't carry it hard if you have a headache and brain fever, your body is the capital of the song title." ”

When Li Zhiqing heard this, his eyes turned red again, and he looked at Qin Liubei with tears in his eyes, "Xiao Qin, we will ask you for this time." ”

Looking at this scene, which was equivalent to a farewell, Shu Ran was full of doubts in her heart.

But Li Zhiqing suddenly said, "Coach Fu, in fact, the two of us can stay in City B for the New Year, it shouldn't affect Ranran's training, right?"

Shu Yutian shook his head, "Let's stay here, how can Ran Ran still train without distractions?"

"Hmm. Fu Yiqing agreed, "If the two of you stay, it will inevitably make her unable to concentrate on training, so she will give up going home for the New Year." ”

Shu Ran trembled, and her raised eyes were full of shock.

She, give up going home for the New Year?!
