Chapter 51: The Ball God Returns
Yu Yang went on a business trip in the past two days, and Xiaojing felt relieved. But she hadn't been happy for two days, and Director Qiao of Operations assigned her another big task.
"Xiaojing, I'll leave this three-person basketball game to you, since you can move Mr. Yu, then the training of the game will be handled by you."
"Ah, Mr. Qiao, this is not appropriate, right?"
"What's out of place. I see that Mr. Yu has a good impression of you, this is a rare opportunity to get along with the leader, I have always been very optimistic about you. ”
I don't need that opportunity! Xiaojing only dared to complain in her heart, and in front of her, she could only say obediently: "Okay." Thank you, Mr. Qiao! ”
Xiaojing wondered why it was so difficult for her to draw a clear line with him.
"Manager Lu, Mr. Yu is still busy, why don't we go first, I'll send him the address."
"It's fine." Originally, Xiaojing didn't want to set off with Yu Yang, so it was better.
On the way, they stopped by to buy some food.
"Manager Lu, I'll take some snacks and go buy some functional drinks."
"You see which one is good to buy, and I don't know what they like to drink."
"Look at it and buy it."
"Oh, then I'll take some of it." So Xiao Xu took a drink and mineral water.
"Two more bottles of Coke." When Xiao Xu was about to pay the bill, Xiaojing brought two bottles of Coke over.
"Coke?" Xiao Xu was a little puzzled, it didn't seem to be suitable for sports to drink, but she didn't ask much
Where would Xiao Xu know that Yu Yang has a habit of wanting to drink Coke after drinking water after exercising, and for this special habit, Xiaojing laughed at him a lot. He said that having some ice cola after exercising is simply refreshing, and this habit has not been changed since high school.
So when she used to sit and watch him play, she would always buy two bottles of Coke, one for him and one for herself. Although she didn't know if he still had his old habits, she couldn't help but take the Coke.
After about half an hour of training, Yu Yang was late. He was really busy, and when he came back from a business trip, he went straight to the office, and as soon as the matter was dealt with, he rushed here non-stop.
Basketball, he hadn't touched it in ten years, and he didn't know what he could play. When he put on the jersey again and looked at himself in the mirror, he looked like he was ten years younger, glowing with the air of his former youth, not the old-fashioned look he used to look like when he wore a suit.
When he appeared on the basketball court in hemisphere, Xiaojing seemed to have traveled through time and space. She couldn't help but stare at him with an idiotic gaze like before, and he was still as handsome and handsome as ten years ago, and he exuded the charming charm of a charming girl.
"Wow, Mr. Yu, your outfit is quite a bit like a slam dunk master Liuchuan Feng." Xiao Xu looked like a nymphomaniac.
When Yu Yang heard this, he smiled, but his eyes looked at Xiaojing. When Xiaojing saw him looking at herself, she was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew her lost gaze and turned her face to the side in embarrassment.
Touching the basketball again, Yu Yang's heart was full of emotion. Only she can give herself the courage to face it all again. The ball was placed in the palm of his hand, and the sensation of both familiar and unfamiliar was transmitted throughout his body. He shook his head for a long time before he kept throwing the ball to the ground, and when the ball bounced back into his palm, it was the thrill of dribbling.
He dribbled to the middle of the free throw line, looked apprehensively at the rebound, and threw the first ball in a decade into the frame in front of him.
Just listen to the sound of "swish", the ball swept over the net and fell to the ground, the sound was crisp and powerful. The moment he watched the ball hit the ground, his right hand clenched into a fist.
After all, it was a talent in his bones, and it didn't take long for him to quickly regain his familiar sense of the ball, and it didn't take much time for everyone present to be stunned by Yu Yang's ball skills.
A feint, he dodges a rebound;
A long-range jumper who throws a three-pointer in a perfect arc;
A frontal attack, he jumped lightly to bounce the ball, and the ball was rolled into the basket......
All the movements were smooth and in one go, and the other team that trained together was beaten smoothly, leaving everyone in the stands stunned.
He repeatedly felt that he was back ten years ago, when he was always the focus of the court, when Xiaojing always sat in the stands and stared at him intently, his every move held his heart. He scored, and she cheered; He was besieged, and she was terrified.
Every time she wins a ball game, she will always say proudly: "Yu Yang, you are so handsome on the court, how can you be my boyfriend, how many girls have to envy you." ”
And he would always look at her dotingly, touch her head and laugh.
"Wow, Mr. Yu, it turns out that your ball is playing so well."
"At your level, our team can lie down and win!" The members of the same team couldn't help but admire.
"I haven't fought for years, and I'm a little rusty." Yu Yang said it from the heart, in the past, whether it was energy or shooting accuracy, it was more than three times.
"How good were you before? Look at your skills, you used to be on the school team. Xiao Xu couldn't help but interject and asked.
"yes." Speaking of these, Yu Yang felt that all kinds of past events came to his heart, and he couldn't help but look at Xiaojing again. Xiaojing's eyes were full of dodging and evasion.
"Is that too busy at work? What a pity. ”
Yu Yang didn't respond, just squeezed a response from between his cheeks. Seeing that the leader was not happy to talk about this topic, Xiao Xu hurriedly handed over drinks and water.
But Yu Yang didn't answer, but leaned over and picked up the Coke. This move made Xiao Xu so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw, thinking that the manager would just take the number, but he didn't expect that Mr. Yu really chose Coke, she couldn't help but admire that her leader was really unique.
Yu Yang drank Coke, but the taste in his mouth was sweet and bitter. At this time, he and her were sitting side by side drinking Coke, and their mouths and hearts were sweet. And now, she sat so far away from him, with a faint frustration in her eyes.
He suddenly wanted to go back in time, to the past when they were holding hands and standing shoulder to shoulder. It would be nice to be able to switch back to the past with the current one.
At this time, he wished he could go to her, hug her, kiss her little face, comfort and comfort her, but he couldn't do anything.
Watching him pick up the Coke, she didn't know whether to be relieved or sad. He is obviously so close to him now, but so far away, he and the person he once loved, can only get along like strangers, which makes her feel like her heart is soaked in a vinegar vat for a long time, sour and astringent.
The sadness of the passage of time spread in each other's hearts, and Xiaojing was afraid that her emotions would be out of control, so she got up and left.
"It's so late, get in the car, I'll send you back."
"No, it's convenient for me to take a taxi." Xiaojing rejected him with a word.
"It's a remote place and it's not easy to get a taxi." Yu Yang naturally knew that she would be unwilling, so she hurriedly comforted.
"Thank you Mr. Yu for your kindness." Xiaojing still insists on her own persistence.
"When did we become like this?"
"Then tell me, how should I face you?" Her words made him speechless for a moment.
Yes, what qualifications does he have to demand from her? He remembered that Zhang Qi had said that in the years of his absence, she shed countless tears for herself, and those teardrops were like grains of mercury corroding his heart.
He was ashamed, he was annoyed, and he wanted to go up to her and tell her that he had no choice. But looking at her resentful eyes, he felt that no matter how he explained, he looked weak and pale.
He could only watch her stand in the wind and wait for the arrival of the vehicle, but he didn't dare to step forward, because he couldn't love it, and he was so sad. It had eaten at her heart, and now he should have tasted it. This may be God's punishment for him.
He waited in the car, silently watched her get into a taxi and leave, and then quietly drove behind her to where she lived.
Her home is in an old-fashioned row building, which is unique to old Shanghai, and the street lamps downstairs are a little dim, and her figure is shadowed under the street lamps.
She walked not as briskly as before, but slowly and heavily. I saw her turn into a building, and then the living room on the fifth floor of the row on the left turned on.
He sat in the car and watched the lights upstairs, which were so close, but so far away. Is that her home? Is she alone? He didn't dare to think any further.
At this moment, his heart turned a thousand times, and he needed to find someone to talk to, so he dialed Zhang Qi's phone.
"Yo, in my busy schedule, I still remember my little brother, I'm really flattered." This time, Zhang Qi's voice had returned to its usual normal, and it was not serious, but Yu Yang felt much more cordial.
"Dead fatty, you still have this virtue when you speak."
"That also depends on whom, to my gods, I am a different face. What's the matter, what's wrong with me? ”
"I can't call you if it's okay?"
"I don't have anything to do but go to the Sanding Palace, I don't know you yet."
"You kid can't make a good sentence," this long-lost friendship made Yu Yang's just dull heart a little relieved,
"I saw Xiaojing." There was joy, sentimentality, and indescribable emotions in his voice.
"What? I said that you are endless, didn't you say that it is better not to disturb others? Don't tell me you can't help it. Zhang Qi was also puzzled.
"I'm in the same company as her."
"So you're still her leader? Our Jingjing owes you in her last life, right? You're really ......" Zhang Qi originally wanted to say that the ghost is not gone, but he thought about it again, this is really a fucking fate.
"It's me who owes her, in the next life, I'm afraid it won't be over in the next life."
"Be kind to her, and do everything you can!" Hearing him say that, Zhang Qi couldn't say anything in his heart, so he could only sigh, since the will of heaven is like this.
"I know." Yu Yang replied very solemnly, followed by the tacit silence of the two.
"Are you okay there?" It was Zhang Qi who broke the deadlock first and diverted the topic.
"You have time to walk around here, I don't have any friends here."
"What, is there a one-stop service with food and accommodation?"
"You can choose the hotels and restaurants here."
"That's pretty much it, you wait."
After hanging up the phone, he looked up and saw a figure standing on the balcony on the fifth floor, and she looked up at the moon. Yu Yang followed her gaze and looked at the sky.
The moonlight was charming tonight, and it was the second time he had admired the moon with her in many years, and although they were in different scenes, she was in his sight after all, and what seemed to him more charming than the moonlight was her silhouette in the shadow of the moon.
Once upon a time, happiness was so easy to get, but he didn't cherish it, and now it's easy to save everything?
When all the lights in Xiaojing's house were extinguished, Yu Yang drove away. When he returned to his home, the lights in his home were exceptionally bright, but he still felt cold and lonely.
