Chapter 21: Bad News
I'm afraid I won't have a chance
Say goodbye to you, because maybe I won't see you again, tomorrow I'm going to leave the familiar place, and I'm going to separate from you, and my tears will fall......
……
Ah Niu's "Goodbye" floated softly out of the speakers, reverberating in the living room. Looking at the familiar everything in front of him, Wang Yu didn't know why, his eyes were already full of tears at this moment. Although I have only lived in this small private apartment for less than half a year, everything here is suddenly so friendly and reluctant.
Tomorrow, tomorrow, as long as you sign your name on that contract, everything here, all the people and things here will be a thing of the past.
But when this originally long-awaited moment is about to become a reality, why is it so difficult to overcome that hurdle in my heart?
It stands to reason that it would be a very happy thing for an athlete to get a big contract at the beginning of his career, but at this moment, Wang Yu's face not only did not have the slightest joy, but he made an exception and poured a glass of bitter red wine.
Yes, at this moment, Wang Yu is not celebrating that he got the big contract of his dreams, on the contrary, he is borrowing wine to drown his sorrows because he is depressed in his heart at the moment.
He couldn't forget that when Han Bin told him the news that he was allowed to transfer during the day, Han Bin's eyes were full of complicated emotions, and he couldn't wave away the tearful face of Zhang Ping who was standing on the side.
In addition, when the teammates learned the news, except for Zhu Fangyu who came forward with a wry smile and hugged him tightly, no one else stepped forward to congratulate him.
On the contrary, when he was in the locker room during the day, Wang Yu clearly saw that many of his teammates looked at him with a hint of hatred in their eyes after learning about the situation. Because they know that Wang Yu's transfer request for Han Bin was made out of desperation to agree, and they know better that after Wang Yu's passive slacking to achieve the purpose of requesting a transfer, the Purple Kirin men's basketball team may sink this season.
Wang Yu had originally brought them hope, but now he also used a very cold way to shatter the hope that had been ignited in their hearts in an instant.
Faintly, the former teammates have labeled Wang Yu as ungrateful, a traitor to the team.
Choked, Wang Yu silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. I got up and walked into the room and took the luggage I had already packed to the living room. Stuff is simple, just one suitcase. The bedroom had been cleaned up by Wang Yu very neatly and cleanly, just like when he first stepped into this private apartment.
Tonight, he planned to rest on the sofa in the living room for the night, after all, there were only more than ten hours left until the dawn of the next day, and he didn't want to increase his debt to Han Bin, Zhang Ping, and the Purple Kirin Basketball Club.
After pouring a full glass of red wine again, Wang Yu slowly lay down on the sofa in neat clothes. Looking at the ceiling above his head in a haze, Wang Yu's tears once again spinelessly welled up in his eyes and soaked through his clothes.
Quietly, the song "Goodbye" in the stereo has reached the last note. On his tear-stained face, Wang Yu slowly closed his eyes, and then fell asleep in a daze.
………
………
Purple Kirin Men's Basketball Club, General Manager's Office.
The night is a little deep.
After seeing off several senior managers of the club, Han Bin sat back on the sofa with an expressionless face, then lit a cigarette for himself and slowly leaned back on the sofa. Zhang Ping, who was sitting silently on the side, looked at her cousin's depressed appearance, and was very worried. After a little hesitation, Zhang Ping quietly pushed a glass of red wine in front of Han Bin, and then opened his mouth to break the silence in the room.
"Is there really no way to undo it?" Zhang Ping asked in a low voice.
"Don't you understand it now?" Han Bin smiled bitterly and spit out a puff of smoke, got up and took a sip of red wine, and continued: "This matter is not a question of whether there is a way to recover, but there is no need to recover it at all. ”
"Why? Aren't you afraid that you're making the wrong decision? Zhang Ping paused as she spoke, and added: "Actually, can't we promise to give him a raise?" Why do you have to trade him away? ”
"My silly sister, the problem is not as simple as you think." Han Bin said, sighed, and continued: "Every industry has its own rules of the game, and it has a bottom line that it cannot touch. Wang Yu's approach this time not only touched the red line of the basketball professional league, but now he is just using basketball as a springboard to gain benefits, understand? That's what makes me feel the chill. ”
"But even so, you can completely stop trading, but choose to train him well in the future, why do you have to trade?" Zhang Ping still didn't understand the meaning of Han Bin's words.
"Originally, I didn't want to say it, but since you've already asked, I'll tell you."
Han Bin cleared his throat as he spoke, snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, and then said: "I do this for several reasons: first, I don't want Wang Yu to waste two years of good time because of passive sabotage; Second, I don't want Wang Yu's passivity to affect the atmosphere of harmony and unity within the team; Third, I don't want to see Wang Yu give up basketball because he was ostracized by his teammates. ”
"But if he gets to that team and there is still a situation like today, what will he do then?" Zhang Ping said worriedly.
"If this is the case, it can only show that his love for basketball is not from the heart, and it also means that he is not qualified to continue playing basketball at all." While speaking, Han Bin suddenly seemed to feel very tired, so he leaned on the sofa, slowly closed his eyes, and said quietly: "I hope he can play well in that team for three years, if he asks for a transfer halfway through, I'm afraid he will really be banned by other teams at that time." ”
"I understand, the reason why you allowed Wang Yu to break the contract and transfer to another team halfway is because you can't bear to see his career ruined by the greedy desire for materials and money, right?" Zhang Ping looked at her cousin quietly and said softly.
"Even if it's it." Han Bin smiled faintly as he spoke, and then added: "But I'm not so great, I just kind of hate myself for looking away at the beginning." ”
Hating herself, hating her own eyes, hating her original choice, and looking at Han Bin, who blamed herself for all her faults, Zhang Ping listened quietly and didn't speak again for a long time, but in her heart, she knew very well that these words were not the true thoughts of her cousin Han Bin in the depths of her heart.
Jingle Bell ......
Jingle Bell ......
Half-asleep, I heard a rapid ringing of my mobile phone in my ears. Wang Yu stretched out his hand in a daze and fumbled with the mobile phone on the table next to him, and after some random strokes, he connected the phone.
Wang Yu: "Which one?" ”
Heizi: "Xiao Yu, I'm Guo Mingming, where are you now, come back quickly." ”
Wang Yu: "I'm sleeping, what should I do when I go back, is there anything wrong?" ”
Kuroko: "You're coming back soon, something happened to the mouse, hurry up, something big is wrong." ”
Wang Yu: "What's the matter?" What are you crying about? Where are you now? ”
Kuroko: "I'm in the hospital, just come back quickly, don't ask anything else." ”
Wang Yu: "What about the mouse, is he with you?" ”
Kuroko: "He, he's not in the hospital." The rat has been arrested and taken to the police station, you should come back quickly. ”
Wang Yu: "Don't cry, I'll go back immediately." By the way, why was the mouse arrested at the police station? ”
Kuroko: "Kill, kill." ”
Wang Yu: "......"
With a crisp sound, the phone fell to the floor. At this time, Wang Yu's face was no longer bloody.
The next moment, Wang Yu, who had come back to his senses a little, bounced up from the sofa violently, didn't bother to take the suitcase next to him, and immediately rushed out of the room like a madman.
There is no starlight in the night sky tonight, no cold moon, as if there is no life.
At night, the whole city is bustling with traffic.
On the side of the road, among the pedestrians who were chatting and laughing, a tall and burly boy with a very pale face looked very noticeable from a distance. At this moment, for some reason, he was desperately running forward like a madman while pushing away the crowd in front of him.
In the midst of the curious gaze, people laughed and talked about the boy's strange behavior, but not half of them felt the slightest worry about his pale face and his messy and hurried steps.
The night, as if it had never been so cold to me as it was tonight.
(Three shifts a day, the first shift today.) )
