Chapter 135: The Finale (I)
At the press conference after the game, there were constant words of congratulations and compliments, and some asked why Kong Yixian was unusually emotional.
Facing the camera, Director Chang and Kong Yixian both seemed absent-minded, and after only responding a few words briefly, they got up early and prepared to end the press conference.
But Kong Yixian hesitated again, turned around and sat back in his seat, and Chang Dao sat down again although he was puzzled. I saw her turn the ring on her ring finger, which immediately attracted more shutter sounds.
"I don't have much to say about the competition, but I want to take this opportunity to let the world witness it. I believe that everyone knows my relationship with Chang Yi very well, and it is indeed a pity that he did not come to witness my victory this time. But I knew he was looking at me right in front of the screen. So I want to say ......"
Chang Dao turned his head to look at her, as if he had guessed what she was saying. Sure enough, Kong Yixian smiled at the camera, her eyes as bright as the ring on her hand.
"Chang Yi I love you, I will always love you, no matter what, there is only you. β
Such a confession is even more precious after the World Champion's retirement. The reporters wanted to ask something more, but Kong Yixian refused one by one, and she couldn't wait any longer. I wanted to see him the next moment.
Chang Xiang reported the situation to the above, and the leader also understood her difficulty, canceled the arrangement for her to be the flag bearer of the closing ceremony, and let her and Chang Dao return to China ahead of schedule.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they got off the plane, Lu Shan, Liang Fei and Lin Nengjin were already waiting. They all knew about Chang Yi, so they specially came to accompany Kong Yixian, how could they let their friends bear these pains alone.
On the way to the hospital, Lu Shan suddenly spoke.
"Xian, when you were suffering from heat stroke before, when you were injured in the eye, I saw Chang Yi's expression, the same as you. At the time, I thought the sky was falling, but you were okay in the end. β
Kong Yixian didn't know what her intention was when she mentioned this at this time, "So what?"
"So......" Lu Shan pulled Kong Yixian's head, let her lean on her chest, and ran her hair down the ground.
"So God is just letting you be fair. You have experienced all his feelings, and you have come to other things with all your bitterness, and this matter will definitely be completed. β
This is the best comfort, and it also makes Kong Yixian feel a little better, but when she arrived at the hospital, she couldn't see Chang Yi for the first time. Just now, he was pushed into the operating room, and whether he can recover his ability to take care of himself in the future depends on whether the operation can be successful.
Chang's mother, who had been staying in the hospital, also knew about Kong Yixian's victory, so she only nodded and didn't say anything. Kong Yixian suddenly thought of something and asked Chang's mother to do her a favor.
"Can you let me record a paragraph and bring it into the operating room for Chang Yi to listen to. β
Chang's mother understood her intentions, but Chang Yi was already anesthetized and couldn't hear it at all, and she couldn't resist Kong Yixian's insistence, so she had to call a nurse out.
Kong Yixian turned on her mobile phone, pressed the recording button, and stopped talking several times, and finally endured it for a long time before saying, "Chang Yi, come on." β
She only needs to say this, Chang Yi will definitely be able to hear it. When the door to the operating room closed again, all that was left was a long, depressing wait.
Lu Shan and Liang Fei couldn't sit still, and they refused to answer calls from the company. Lin Nengjin was even more sweaty in the air-conditioned room, shaking his legs and sighing every few seconds. Lao Chang and his wife are a little better, holding hands with each other, they haven't slept a peaceful sleep since the day of Chang Yi's accident, showing a posture that is older than their age.
Only Kong Yixian, the person who should be the most sad, calmed down and sat motionless, neither crying nor talking.
Lu Shan was still afraid that she was too sad, so she helped her and comforted her. Kong Yixian shook her head with a smile, "I'm not afraid, I'm not worried at all now, Shan, do you believe it, my intuition is very smart, he will be fine." β
It's not self-consolation, she's really trusting her instincts. Just like when she shot the last arrow in the arena, she heard Chang Yi's voice. He must have heard his own voice and came out of the operating room safe and sound.
Time passed slowly in the waiting with different expressions on everyone's faces.
Five hours.
Six hours.
Seven hours......
The torment of guarding the door was not ordinary, Director Chang glanced at the time, and his brows locked deeper, "According to what the doctor said, I should have come out a long time ago." β
As soon as he finished speaking, the indicator light in the operating room went out. The doctor walked out first, and was a little surprised to see so many people suddenly coming, and laughed twice before he could speak.
"Waiting outside, aren't you? Although the operation took a little longer than expected, it was very successful. If we can survive the recovery period, it may be better than we imagined. β
This is what everyone wants to hear the most, and as soon as they breathed a sigh of relief, they saw that Chang Yi was also pushed out.
Lin Nengjin and Liang Fei hadn't seen Chang Yigang injured before, so they were taken aback at first glance, and quickly pulled Kong Yixian over, "Chang Yi, Yixian is back, open your eyes and take a look." β
It's a pity that Chang Yi, who hasn't completely woken up from anesthesia, can't respond to them. Fortunately, that night, a nurse came out to spread the word, saying that Chang Yi had woken up and had something to tell his fiancΓ©e.
Kong Yixian held her breath, her heartbeat was almost in her throat, but she was comforted by the nurse, "He said, he heard your words." β
He really heard it, Kong Yixian finally dared to burst into tears and laugh, and was held in Lu Shan's arms, and the whole thing was considered alive.
After that, Liang Fei, who was busy with work, had to go back to the company first, and Lin Nengjin also had to go back to the city team to work. Lu Shan stayed with Kong Yixian, and they watched the closing ceremony of this Olympic Games on their mobile phones.
Later, I didn't know who accidentally leaked the information, not only in the national team, but even the news media also knew about Chang Yi, and they were blocked in the hospital. Fortunately, Chang Dao came forward in time to cause no adverse effects.
It was on that day that the doctor finally took off his mask, "I have already arranged the ward, congratulations, he is more tenacious than we thought." β
Kong Yixian was stunned, and then saw Chang Yi, who was pushed out of the custody room, although haggard but smiling.
He was awake, and when he saw Kong Yixian, he immediately reached out and held her knuckles, although his voice was weak, it was clear enough, "Yixian, we all did what we said." β
On that day, the sun was exceptionally good.
Many things, even if they are vigorous, as long as there is no news for a while, they will still be quickly forgotten.
During the Olympic Games, athletes are the talk and focus of the world. But as the aftermath of the closing ceremony dissipated, the reporters who surrounded it were gone, the various posts on the Internet were gone, and everyone seemed to have forgotten about them except for their teammates.
So on the day Chang Yi was discharged from the hospital, he was quietly a little funny. Only the fragrance of early spring flowers permeated their surroundings, and the warm sun, plain and precious.
Kong Yixian applied for retirement, and although Chang Dao was reluctant to do so, he finally signed his consent.
Chang Dao is also an old man, watching the national team come and go in a hurry, with such a face, full of youth, and walking with scars. With their own joys and sorrows, they withdrew from their own stage.
"Oops, what a pity. If it weren't for your shoulder injury, I would have wanted you to play in another Olympics......!
Kong Yixian didn't understand Chang Dao's regret, but she really couldn't help it, "Chang Dao...... As you know, it's a miracle that I've survived this Olympics, and you wouldn't want ...... I won't be able to hold a baby in the future. β
Director Chang didn't react at first, but Chang Yi laughed twice before he suddenly realized, patted his forehead and said again and again that he was old and confused, and it was rare to behave so vividly in the office.
"Yixian is retired now, so she won't be called Chang Dao. Let's set a date and let you change your name to Dad, okay?"
After the suffering, I was finally able to welcome the wedding without distractions. Kong Yixian and Chang Yi looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly said, "You don't want to make my gold medal into a wedding ring!"
Chang Yi pressed against her forehead and laughed, a pair of tiger teeth were as bright as before, and he didn't care if he would be laughed at by the father on the side, "No, your gold medal will be kept as a children's toy." β
Getting married was not an easy task, and it took several days to argue just where the wedding was set, and in the end, in order to make it convenient for the teammates of the national team to participate, they chose to be in the capital.
It took a lot of effort to go through various processes, and finally everything was settled in time for the best weather in early autumn. On the day of the wedding, it was very lively.
The national team, the provincial team, the Liang group, the Qin group, everyone who can be invited have been invited.
Mother Kong and Mother Chang chatted for a long time about the topic of intergenerational pain; Mr. He and Director Chang watched the group of children discuss how to train more appropriately; Zhang Ziqin, who was not clamoring to be a bridesmaid, neglected his duty and ran to find Fang Tian and Lu Xin to eat cake; Yin Yu, the current captain, was ridiculed as a super long standby; and Lu Shan held her stomach to help Kong Yixian put on a necklace.
Everything is so beautiful that it doesn't seem to be true, and the pain of the past is covered tightly.
