In Yanjing at the end of October, the weather was already chilly.

In the morning, on the track and field field of the National Training Bureau, Ye Qin was doing a simple warm-up activity.

It has been almost two months since the Olympic Games, and he has experienced a lot of things in these two months, and now, although the aftermath is still there, it can be seen that the heat is also fading from all aspects of Yanjing that it has recovered to the same as before the games.

The two warm-up laps of 800 meters had just been completed, and Ye Qinzheng was standing on the sidelines to relax his muscles a little, and he saw Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng, Gu Kai, Guo Fan and others appear on the track and field.

"You're back early!"

After seeing a few people, Ye Qin smiled and waved his hand, a little surprised that they appeared in the arena so early.

After the Shenghai Grand Prix, the track and field team gave many people a holiday, and everyone basically went home to rest for a while, and many people gradually returned to the team in the past two days.

However, it is not yet the time for the training camp to begin, and there is no requirement to start training immediately after returning to the team, in Ye Qin's opinion, it should be at least a day or two because it may not be possible to see the brothers appear.

"We're not as early as you!"

Zhang Pei Meng walked up to Ye Qin and glanced at him up and down, with a lot of incredible looks in his eyes.

The day after the end of the Shenghai Station Grand Prix, Ye Qin took the car back to his hometown first, thinking that this time Ye Qin should rest for a while, but after returning to the team today, I heard that Ye Qin had been home for less than three days. Soon I flew back to Yanjing and started training every day.

To be honest, it's a really uncomfortable feeling.

In this world, there are not afraid that some people are more talented than you, but people who are more talented than you are afraid of working harder than you and improving all the time. Being teammates and friends with such people can feel a lot of pressure almost every day.

"I didn't have anything to do, so I'll come back first."

Ye Qin replied casually, the smile on his face was still faint, and after returning home last month, he learned a lot of past events from his grandfather's mouth.

Ye Qin never thought about the person who might be lying in the hospital again, and he didn't care about some articles and media reports from the outside world.

Just briefly communicated with the agent team, some things that should be explained clearly, and then a conversation in the team, like Yu Weili and Feng Shuyong, the two head coaches, also probably knew.

Everyone is eliminating this influence, and slowly the heat of some reports has begun to dissipate, and what surrounds Ye Qin is still the meaning of his achievements and honors.

Zhang Peimeng saw that Ye Qin said lightly, and secretly scolded "perverted" in his heart, and did not continue to abuse himself in terms of self-discipline and training attitude, but talked to Ye Qin about another thing:

"Ye Qin, Bingtian said that he was going to have a treat tonight! All of us on the sprint team have to go! ”

"A treat?"

Ye Qin glanced at Zhang Peimeng a little strangely, and then looked at Su Bingtian who was following Zhang Peimeng, the latter's face turned slightly red, and he suddenly became a little interested, and asked with a smile: "What kind of happy event did Bingtian encounter today, and he also had a special dinner?" You know, it's an off-season, and no coach will mumble about a big meal once in a while. ”

Although track and field athletes have the same dietary requirements, in the off-season, coaches or others do not have particularly strict requirements in this regard, and everyone can relax a lot about some dietary aspects.

"Well, I'm in for a treat."

Su Bingtian scratched his head, a shy smile appeared on his face, he looked at Ye Qin with some embarrassment, and gently reached out and slapped Zhang Peimeng.

"What a dinner!"

Ye Qin got the exact answer from Su Bingtian's mouth, and immediately laughed even more happily, "Bingtian, tell me quickly, what kind of handle are you that Zhang Pei Meng has pinched." ”

Su Bingtian's face became even more embarrassed, but Zhang Peimeng next to him squeezed his eyes and laughed the whole time, and shouted at Ye Qin: "Our little girlfriend Bingtian has come to see him, of course we have to invite dinner!" ”

"Girlfriend?"

Ye Qin glanced at Su Bingtian up and down, then showed a narrow smile, walked to Su Bingtian's side, and stretched out his hand to wrap his shoulder, "I can't see it, you kid can, you talked about a girlfriend quietly, if I'm not mistaken, Zhang Peimeng hasn't it yet." Tell me, when did it start? ”

"Alas, why did you pull me up." Zhang Pei Meng shouted with some dissatisfaction, these people in the team so far, it seems that he is really single, originally he always thought that the youngest Su Bingtian was also a person, but as a result, after returning from this holiday, as soon as he arrived at the door of the training bureau, he saw Su Bingtian and a good-looking girl saying goodbye and leaving at the door.

Su Bingtian ignored Zhang Peimeng, who was shouting, but lowered his head and smiled at Ye Qin, "It's not just the beginning, well, we are junior high school classmates." ”

"Oh!"

As soon as Su Bingtian finished saying this, many people such as Gu Kai and Guo Fan who were standing around screamed strangely.

"Childhood sweetheart, yes!!"

"I've been in junior high school, so is it high school or college soon?"

The gossip sound next to him sounded, and then Zhang Peimeng looked at Ye Qin and Su Bingtian with wide eyes, and suddenly let out a long sigh of frustration.

"What's wrong? Frustrated? Gu Kai and Zhang Peimeng next to him were both under Coach Li Qi before, so they were more familiar, and looking at Zhang Peimeng's frosted eggplant-like wilting, he suddenly bumped him lightly with his shoulder.

"No chance!"

Zhang Pei Meng shook his head and said helplessly, "Look at Ye Qin and Su Bingtian, they have all been together since childhood, childhood sweethearts!" I'm in my twenties now, where else can I have such an opportunity? ”

"Hahaha......" Gu Kai saw that Zhang Pei Meng said something interesting, and immediately laughed out loud, "You kid...... I thought you were talking about something......"

The veteran Guo Fan was also a little out of breath with laughter, and then coaxed together: "Pei Meng, don't worry, they have a girlfriend, and the level of competition will definitely not be the same as before, you work harder, and beat them one by one when the time comes." ”

Although he is also a member of the national team, and he is not a stranger to several other people, many times the training is on the provincial team, and when he sees the atmosphere of everyone's fighting, he only feels that he doesn't know how much better it is than the atmosphere of the track and field team he was in before.

"That makes sense!" The crowd laughed again.

Previously, everyone in the track and field team knew that Ye Qin had a girlfriend who went to school in Mizuki and was a female school bully, and in just a few words, they also knew that the two had really grown up together.

This is really enviable and incredible for many boys, especially athletes who have experienced sports schools, professional teams, and then countries.

When we were teenagers, we may have had one or two little girls next door who grew up together, or girls, but as athletes, most of my later growth trajectory is different from others.

It's really rare to be able to see each other once a year and keep in touch.

Like Gu Kai and Guo Fan, who have been slightly older over the years, what elementary and junior high school classmates, not to mention whether they have any connection, even if they are, they will marry early and become wives.

Originally, everyone thought that Ye Qin was the only one, but they didn't expect that there would be a Su Bingtian, which had to make people envious. Especially Zhang Peimeng, who doesn't have a girlfriend yet, can't envy this kind of envy.

"You're all here! Enough chat! ”

While everyone was laughing and laughing, a voice suddenly came from the track and field next to him.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the voice, and suddenly they all showed surprise on their faces.

"Brother Yang, you are willing to come back!"

"Brother Yang, you feel fat in the past two months!"

Standing on the edge of the track and field field was none other than Yang Yao, who was wearing a national team uniform, with long hair and a clear face, and immediately greeted everyone when he saw him.

"Brother Yang, you came back just in time, I want to invite everyone to dinner today!"

After seeing Yang Yao, Ye Qin stepped forward, greeted Yang Yao, and talked about what happened just now with a smile.

After the Olympics, Yang Yao temporarily left the track and field team, while Ye Qin went to Europe to participate in competitions after going to Hong Kong and Macao.

When Ye Qin returned to Shenghai to participate in the Grand Prix, Yang Yao was originally going to go to the scene to watch, but because of some personal trivialities, he was shackled by some personal trivialities, so he just called Ye Qin and said that he couldn't go.

Counting it carefully, as someone said earlier, everyone and Yang Yao haven't seen each other for almost two months.

"That's really early, it's better to come at a good time."

Yang Yao also laughed, walked to Su Bingtian's side, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, then changed the topic and continued, "But, Bingtian, don't worry, your meal may have to be recorded in the account first, today, everyone wants to have a meal together, but it's not you who invite, it's me who invites!" ”

"Brother Yang, how can it be done!" Su Bingtian hurriedly waved his hand, although he was squeezed by Zhang Peimeng for a few words, saying that he had a girlfriend who wanted to invite him to dinner or something, but he didn't actually have any resistance in his heart.

After all, he is no longer the small-town teenager who has just started to practice sports, and this year's competitions, including the World Youth Championships and the Olympic Games, have a lot of bonuses from the national team and the provincial team.

It is not a problem to invite his teammates to a meal, and since he has been in the national team for so long, Su Bingtian feels that he has been taken care of by everyone, and he feels that he should invite everyone to have a meal.

"I'll do it this time."

Yang Yao gently comforted Su Bingtian, who was a little excited, and said with a smile: "Don't rob me, I have to have this meal today." But bring your girlfriend, I'll just see you. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ye Qin, Gu Kaizhang, Pei Meng and the others, "Everyone is coming together, you don't want to slaughter me well today, it will not be easy to find such an opportunity in the future." ”

As soon as these words came out, Su Bingtian and Zhang Peimeng hadn't reacted much, but Ye Qin, Gu Kai, Guo Fan and others raised their eyebrows slightly, and heard the different meanings in it.

Ye Qin stepped forward and walked to Yang Yao's side, and asked tentatively: "Brother Yang, you have really decided, didn't you say last time that you are going to participate in another session." ”

"No waiting." Yang Yao smiled and gave Ye Qin a hug, then let him go, "I'll sit in the audience and watch you play from now on." ”

"What does that mean?" Hearing Yang Yaozu say this, Su Bingtian and Zhang Peimeng finally reacted, and their eyes widened.

"Brother Yang, are you ...... Are you retiring? ”

"Well, there's basically nothing wrong with the team." Yang Yao nodded solemnly, and then smiled again, "I don't want to hide it from everyone, I actually had some physical problems before the Olympics, and my performance in the Olympics this year has made me dare not imagine myself." ”

Saying that, Yang Yao talked about his own affairs roughly, he had some old diseases this year, but the problem was not serious at that time, and the Olympic Games were imminent, and the track and field team 4×100m relay could not do without him.

If he gave up the competition directly at that time, it was likely that the efforts of Ye Qin, Zhang Peimeng and Su Bingtian would be in vain, and it might also make the Chinese track and field team lose a medal.

After the game, instead of going home to rest, he went to the hospital for simple treatment, and the problem was generally not particularly big, and some coaches in the team persuaded him to stay on the field.

But Yang Yao has no regrets about his more than ten years of competitive sports career, especially after participating in the Yanjing Olympics.

Moreover, the newcomers in the track and field team are slowly emerging, and it is still unknown what the status of this veteran who is already twenty-seven or eighteen years old will be in four years.

"Brother Yang...... Are you really retired? ”

After listening to Yang Yao's simple explanation of the ins and outs, Zhang Peimeng suddenly felt a strong reluctance in his heart.

He only now understands why he and Yang Yao both reached the men's 100m and 200m events, but Yang Yao finally gave up the men's 100m and only participated in the men's 200m.

"I'm really sure!" Yang Yao smiled and walked up to Zhang Peimeng's side again, and gently hugged this young man who was almost at the same level as him in the 100 meters and 200 meters.

He knows that although the two are now in the middle of the best, Zhang Peimeng is younger and has more advantages than him, and he is likely to be able to become a top runner who can run around 10 seconds in the future.

Su Bingtian also understood why Yang Yao said that he was going to invite him to dinner tonight, and he was speechless for a while, he had been in the team for the shortest time, but he ran a relay with Yang Yao and had a lot of contact, and he still liked this enthusiastic and active brother who was willing to take care of the newcomer.

Gu Kai looked at Yang Yao after confirming his retirement, and his face was slightly complicated.

In the years when Ye Qin had not yet risen to the fullest, he and Yang Yao were still rivals, and he once saw Yang Yao as a target to surpass, and he wanted to beat each other in both the 100m and 200m events.

What he didn't expect was that he was still continuing his sports career while studying in graduate school in Mizuki, an old opponent who was a year older than him, but he was ready to say goodbye to the game.

"Don't make this look, everyone!"

Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a little sad, Yang Yao suddenly smiled and clapped his hands, "I'm just retiring, it's not that I can't see each other when I'm dead, there will still be many opportunities to meet in the future." ”

"Brother Yang, have you already decided where to go?"

Ye Qin walked up to Yang Yao and asked, compared to several other people, he had heard Yang Yao mention a sentence or two before, although he was also shocked by the news, but he didn't seem particularly surprised.

Athletes are fighting hard in the field, and when they reach a certain time, they may not be able to improve their results, or they may change their mentality, and they will have some tired emotions.

Yang Yao was about to leave the arena, and Ye Qin knew that the other party was naturally due to his body and performance, and his goals and ideals were basically achieved.

Even if it drags on for another four years, he will go to the London Olympics with him, and I am afraid that the results he will achieve will not be better than this year.

"It's still in Shenghai, Shenghai track and field team."

Yang Yao saw Ye Qin ask where he was, and immediately said generously, and looked at everyone with a smile, "If you have time to come to Shenghai in the future, remember to call me!" ”

"Of course!"

"Definitely!"

There were a few more responses from the crowd.

"Then let's train first, I won't affect you, I still have some formalities to do!" Yang Yao looked at the time, did not continue to stay longer, but beckoned to everyone and turned to leave.

Looking at Yang Yao's departing back, Ye Qin took a light breath, stretched his muscles in place, and then stepped onto the runway and began training.

Someone will come, and someone will go!

He didn't know when he would leave the track and leave the field!

But as long as he can still run, he will come up with better results one day!
