Figure Skating: Waltz on Ice

"Is Brother Chen's injury healed?"

"Congratulations on Chen Ge's return to the team!!!"

......

Upon arriving at the meeting point, everyone who saw Du Liangchen greeted him. Before Du Liangchen could respond to everyone, Coach Jiang arrived, and everyone quickly stood in line.

Coach Jiang first congratulated Du Liangchen on returning to the team, and then started a five-kilometer morning run. Since Du Liangchen had just recovered and returned, he ran three kilometers first.

Having not trained for a long time, Du Liangchen's body couldn't adapt. After running three kilometers, he was covered in sweat, his legs were so heavy he could barely lift them, and he was gagging against the iron railing.

Mei Jing frowned, looking at him with heartache as she handed him water to rinse his mouth, hoping it would make him feel better.

Seeing Du Liangchen's condition, Coach Jiang couldn't help but shake his head, "How did your physical condition decline so much?"

"Where are your muscles? Shouldn't you be resting and recovering? How come you're getting thinner and thinner? Can you even keep up with the training later? No, I'm giving you leave."

Du Liangchen rinsed his mouth and shook his head, "No...no need, I can manage."

Coach Jiang looked at Mei Jing: "Help him to the cafeteria and watch him eat."

"Huh?" Du Liangchen didn't expect that he would let Mei Jing watch him eat, and his ears turned red instantly.

Mei Jing nodded seriously: "I understand. Don't worry, Commander Jiang, I will definitely keep an eye on him."

In the cafeteria.

Wang Chenghao and Liu Yu had already prepared breakfast for the two of them as Mei Jing had instructed, and were eating while waiting for the two to arrive.

Both of them were a little worried after Du Liangchen vomited so much.

Finally, just as the two were finishing their meal, they saw Du Liangchen and his companion helping each other enter the cafeteria.

"here!"

Liu Yu waved to signal, and the two walked towards their table.

"I've already prepared your food as Jing-ge instructed. Hurry up and eat, or Cheng Hao and I will have finished eating."

Mei Jingchong and the other man raised an eyebrow and said, "Thanks!"

Wang Chenghao and Liu Yu: "You're welcome!"

Du Liangchen's face was still pale after vomiting. He nodded to the two of them, and then swallowed hard when he saw the things on the table.

"There's so much, I can't finish it all!"

Mei Jing patted his leg under the table and comforted him, "Try to eat as much as you can. Give me what you can't finish."

Liu Yu and Wang Chenghao sat opposite each other without any reaction. How did they get through this? As athletes, how could they not get injured? But the time after each injury and returning to the team is always the hardest. First, physical fitness will decline, and then there's the diet. They have to eat more to improve their physical condition, but they can't let themselves gain weight. It's like going through a trial by fire.

This adjustment period takes more than ten days, and some people with weaker adaptability may need more than half a month to regain their former feeling.

With the help of his coach and Mei Jing, Du Liangchen's condition improved, and he was about to prepare for going abroad.

As the day of Du Liangchen's departure drew closer, Mei Jing's mood became increasingly depressed.

Even though he was reluctant, there was no other way. China doesn't place as much emphasis on figure skating as it does on other sports, so there are no suitable training cases for asthmatic athletes. He had to leave for the sake of his performance.

The day Du Liangchen left wasn't a day off, so Mei Jing couldn't go to see him off at the airport, which made him feel even worse.

"Good luck, Jing-ge! See you on the field!"

Mei Jing opened her phone and saw a message from Du Liangchen sent an hour ago; only then did a slight smile appear on her tense lips.

Du Liangchen usually calls him by his full name and never calls him "brother," so he never expected that he would use this to coax him at this time.
