689 Never give up
After seeing George's figure disappear at the entrance of the subway station, Lance turned around, raised his hand and hailed a taxi, and after getting in the car, he explained the destination "Special Surgery Hospital", and called Percy again, explaining where his car was parked, and then he really relaxed.

This afternoon's negotiations were fruitful, not only mentally enriching, but also physically challenging - the two of them walked and talked for nearly three hours on and off, and it was hard to imagine that George was sixty years old this year. However, the most difficult first step has been taken, everything is difficult at the beginning, and then everything will become clear, "Mad Max 4", which will be the starting point for Chaos Pictures to create miracles.
Rearranged the creative ideas of "Mad Max 4", and the destination had arrived in a blink of an eye, packed up his emotions, and came to Gawain's ward with ease, but found that the ward was empty, and without waiting for Lance to ask, the nurse who came to "patrol the room" took the initiative to inform Gawain's movements, "He is in the swimming pool." ā
Lance couldn't help but be stunned, because this is one of the most favored hospitals for the top athletes in the United States, so the special surgery hospital has a complete post-operative recovery system, and the swimming pool is one of the most frequently used places. "However, his recovery training has been completed in the morning today, does the doctor have another arrangement?"
The nurse showed a helpless look, "But the doctor didn't object, his physical condition has now returned to the level of a normal person." ā
Lance nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, "Thank you, I hope he didn't cause you any trouble." Lance's smile made the nurse respond with a bright smile, and she lowered her head to pull the loose strands of hair behind her ears, and there was a hint of shyness on her slightly reddened cheeks. I went to the pool to look for him. Lance politely stepped back, then turned to leave.
Before Lance's figure disappeared completely, the other nurses who were on duty suddenly swarmed over, surrounded the nurse just now, and began to talk nonsense.
At this time, the sun was already setting in the west, and I don't know if it was an illusion, Lance always felt that the days in New York seemed to be shorter than in Los Angeles. The brilliant golden sunset sprinkled on the turquoise swimming pool, sparkling blue waves, glowing like heaven; There was no noise around the silence, leaving the solemnity and heaviness of the hospital behind, and the slowly precipitating silence eased the mood.
Whoa, whoa...... The sound of light water came, and Lance couldn't help but stop, and then he saw Gawain standing in the shallow area of the pool.
At this time, Gao Wen stood in the water in the independent posture of the golden rooster, grabbed the elbow of his left hand with his right hand and slowly drove his body to rotate to the right, but the slow movement had a special rhythm, even if one foot was independent, it was stable, and it was clear that the strong and strong muscles changed shape with the movement. When you're done, stand on one foot and repeat in the opposite direction.
Lance watched Gawain over and over again, tirelessly repeating, and after completing five sets of movements, he landed on his feet and let out a long breath, and it could be seen that the seemingly simple action consumed a lot of physical strength. Gawain stood still and adjusted his breathing, then plunged headlong into the water, just relying on his feet to swing, sneaking underwater, diving from one side of the pool to the other, before slamming out of the water.
Then, Gawain saw Lance standing at the door, he wiped the drops of water on his cheeks with both hands, and smiled awkwardly, "Don't worry, I'm just doing some basic movements, I've been sitting in the ward, it's too boring......" The words of defense seemed a little weak, and he didn't even dare to look Lance in the eyes.
The words of rebuke swirled around the tip of his tongue, and finally he swallowed it. Lance realizes that he will never be able to comprehend Gawain's love of rugby, just as Gawain cannot comprehend his obsession with cinema. Trapping Gawain in the hospital may ensure his health, but ...... Gawain is no longer Gawain.
In his career, he has always taken risks, like a high-altitude tightrope, one wrong step is to break bones, and this crisis is no exception, but Gawain, like Theo and Ian, has never questioned his choices and decisions. To be more precise, since he was a child, Gawain never refused his request, he always stood strong in front of him, as if he were the eternal patron saint, so much so that they all forgot that Gawain was the same age as him.
Looking at Gawain's embarrassed and jerky expression, his gaze drifting on the water in a panic, Lance couldn't help but chuckle. He had changed, but Gawain had never changed.
Hearing the voice, Gawain raised his head, and then saw the smile on the corner of Lance's mouth, which made him a little flustered, because this was really too abnormal, "Lance, I promise......" But before he could finish speaking, Lance interrupted him, "What kind of muscles did you just do, what kind of muscles are you exercising?" ā
Gao Wen didn't react for a while, and then he watched Lance walk to the pool and hand over the bath towel in his hand, Gao Wen hesitantly walked out of the water, took the bath towel, and wiped the water droplets from his hair, "I may need to work out for a while in the next period, so maybe you can be my coach." I'm still more willing to give myself to someone I can trust than the bodybuilders out there, after all, I don't plan to be Arnold Schwarzenegger. ā
Gao Wen was stunned, and the brightness of his eyes bloomed little by little, "You want to work out?" Haha, so you finally got it? Want to build your muscles? While speaking, Gawain made a posture for a fitness competition, showing off his biceps and pectoral muscles, just like a peacock with the screen open.
Gawain watched the smile on the corner of Lance's mouth rise slightly, something is wrong, this is really too wrong, Gawain tilted his head, whenever Lance wanted to calculate, he would show such a demonic smile. Gao Wen narrowed his eyes and thought about it seriously, then his shoulders drooped, and his excited expression regained his calm, "You did this on purpose, right?" Hopefully I have something else to do. ā
Gao Wen let out a long breath, walked to the bench next to him, and sat down heavily, "You are all worried about my life after I retire, I know. "The four brothers have been together all their lives, how can he not see it? Recently, Theo has tried to talk to him several times, but he has pretended not to understand and fled. Not because he was afraid, but because he didn't know how to answer.
Lance saw the loneliness between Gawain's eyebrows, and the words of denial fell to his lips, and he took a step forward and sat down next to Gawain.
Gawain smiled self-deprecatingly, "If you ask me, am I ready to retire?" Honestly, no. I don't want to leave the ring, I'm not sure, I don't have a regular training routine, I should do something; Without Thursday's group training, without Friday's running around, I don't seem to have anything else to do; Without being an athlete, I don't seem to be myself......"
Raising his head, Gawain saw Lance who opened his mouth to speak, and he shook his head, "I'm not belittling myself, but the facts." Theo is always silently taking care of us, as if he can always pick up the mess after we get into trouble; Ian always has a lot of ideas, and he's the smartest of the guys, and he can find a solution to anything; And you, God, you are so talented, I am really jealous of you, as if you just have to sit there and change the whole world...... But what about me? A bull running wild on the grass, and when I leave the field, I'm nothing. ā
With a long exhale, Gao Wen's always lively and bright expression was stained with a faint layer of loss, "So, I'm not ready to retire, maybe...... I could never be ready. ā
Lance opened his mouth, closed it again, then opened his mouth again, closed it again, and repeated this several times, before finally letting out a long breath and looking away, "Do you remember?" That summer, the summer I can barely remember," the summer Frank and Fiona died, "the first thing you did when I came to my senses?" ā
Gawain turned his head and saw Lance's blue eyes, but his mind was blank, and he shook his head blankly, he really couldn't remember.
"You hugged me and cried for a long, long time, and I almost suspected that there was going to be a flood." Lance's teasing words made Gawain scratch his head in embarrassment, "Then, you pushed Theo to the ground so hard that you yelled at him. ā
"Me? Theo? Gawain was directly stunned, "Why am I not impressed at all?" "Gawain thinks this is like a fantasy, how could he just push Theo to the ground?" Impossible, absolutely impossible! ā
The corners of Lance's mouth lifted slightly, and then fell again, "You said loudly, 'Lance is injured, why don't you take him to the hospital quickly'." You kept repeating it, as if ......" Lance's voice slowed down, as if he were afraid of a butterfly at his fingertips, "as if I was worried that I would disappear forever." ā
Gawain fell silent, bitter on the tip of his tongue, not knowing what to say. Lance raised his head again, greeted Gawain, and showed a bright smile, "Believe me, if it weren't for you, just let me get along with Theo and Ian?" Lance rolled his eyes, and even though he didn't say anything, he made Gawain laugh with a snort.
Gawain is the spiritual pillar of their four brothers, the existence that never gives up.
"So, you ask me, should you retire at all? I can't answer, it's like if you ask me if I'm willing to give up making a movie, and I'll probably give you a punch. Lance tugged at the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, "But you ask me, who are you without being an athlete?" I will tell you that you are Gawain Strello, a successful rugby player, a great spiritual fighter, and an excellent ...... Brothers. (To be continued.) )
