Don't be too Holden

Yuan Yuan took a look and grinned: "...well, I'm Chen Yu... you... hello..."

Yuan Liu nodded slightly for the first time, and said, "I am Yuan Liu."

A long silence followed.

The two people who should have talked more didn't speak. Looking at Chen Yu's reserved look, Huo Dun felt more and more suspicious.But Yao Tao didn't think so, she had completely attributed this phenomenon to Yuanliu's aura of idleness.

At this time Yuan Yuan had already raised his head, noticed this side, looked at Yuan Liu and didn't say hello.

Cheng Cheng also saw Yuan Liu at this moment, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly broke free from Yuan Yuan's hand.

"elder brother!"

All of a sudden, he threw himself into Yuanliu's arms.

The whole audience was completely stunned.

Especially Chen Yu and Yuan Yuan.

The former was trembling uncontrollably now, and hurried up to pull Chengcheng: "Chengcheng...don't bark...this brother doesn't know us..."

Of course, Chengcheng didn't understand the situation at the scene, she grabbed Yuanliu's sleeve tightly, turned her head and frowned: "Why don't you know me?! This is brother Yuanliu! I won't admit my mistake, my brother has been with Chengcheng since he was born Orange!"

Looking at Yuan Liu's rare frown and Chen Yu's already pale cheeks, a thought suddenly flashed in Holden's mind.

He subconsciously looked at Yuan Yuan, only to see that Yuan Yuan's eyes became shocked, and his body was a little stiff.

His blue eyes looked at the two people in front of him motionlessly, and his voice was a little unnatural.

"When did you... meet each other?"

"When did you... meet each other?"

In one sentence, everyone was dumbfounded.

Yuan Liu's complexion became so ugly for the first time, he didn't even dare to hug Cheng Cheng, but looked at Yuan Yuan with complicated eyes, watching the other party's brows frown, a pair of blue eyes hiding some fear, as if guessing To what general.

He felt his heart beat a little faster at that moment.

Chen Yu didn't dare to turn around, her face was pale, and she covered her mouth with her hands, as if she was suppressing some turbulent emotions in herself.

Yuan Liu knew that Chen Yu couldn't speak now, so he could only close his eyes and said calmly, "We don't know each other."

"Don't know?" Yuan Yuan obviously didn't believe it anymore, looking at Cheng Cheng who was holding on to Yuan Liu's pants, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I don't quite understand, which one are you acting in? Are you thinking again?" What are you going to hide?"

Huo Dun had already guessed the truth at this time, Wei Wei stretched out his hand to grab Yuan Yuan's sleeve, and called out: "Yuan Yuan, calm down..."

Before he finished speaking, he staggered a step because of Yuan Yuan's unstoppable movements. The pain in his buttocks and waist suddenly made him unable to care about what happened on the other side.

Yuan Yuan's face was a little pale, and he walked slowly behind Chen Yu whose back was facing him, his eyes were trembling, and he asked in a low voice.

"May I... ask your full name?"

Chen Yu's body trembled, and he looked up at Yuan Liu almost as if asking for help.

The latter's somewhat piercing eyes swept towards Yuan Yuan: "Yuan Yuan, don't mess around."

Yuan Yuan had already put his hand on Chen Yu's shoulder slowly, as if there was no one else around.

"I've always thought that you look...very familiar..."

"My mother, her name is... Chen Xue, do you... know each other?"

"Yuan Yuan!" Yuan Liu yelled, but was interrupted by Chen Yu who suddenly raised his head. Chen Yu reached out to wipe the tears on his face, raised his red eyes, and slowly turned to look at Yuan Yuan.

"It's okay. Xiaoliu, it's okay."

Chen Yu looked at Yuan Yuan's face with a pair of dark eyes, the emotion in his eyes changed countless times in an instant, and finally condensed into a thick, heavy sadness, even his voice became trembling.

"After so many years, your father actually wants to bind us with an agreement. He is no longer qualified...Even if it's for you or your mother..."

Yuan Yuan's eyes trembled suddenly.

"you……"

Chen Yu evoked a smile, tears were still streaming down, slowly stretched out a hand, caressed Yuan Yuan's cheek, and said with a smile: "You look more like your mother than your brother, and your eyes are more beautiful ..."

Yuan Yuan felt Chen Yu's somewhat rough fingertips brushing his cheeks, and the question in his heart almost blurted out: "...my mother... is she... gone?"

Chen Yu frowned slightly, his eyes turned red again, and he took a deep breath.

"...um. Gone."

His eyes were completely extinguished at that moment. Looking at the young man who was like an empty shell, Huo Dun felt that a piece of his heart had been dug out, and blood dripped down, but he still dared not move forward.

He has never experienced his pain, so how dare he comfort him as an outsider?

Chen Yu's eyes flickered for a while, and he said calmly: "But...she died in China, and she was buried here."

Yuan Yuan raised his head suddenly, with an inconceivable expression written all over his face.

Chen Yu sniffed, stretched out his hand to hold Yuan Yuan's hand, and smiled very happily: "When I saw you...you were only so big...even your skin was wrinkled, not as big as your brother's at all. Looks good... Now, he is actually such a handsome young man."

Yuan Yuan's eyes were already red, looking at Chen Yu, he was choked up and unable to speak.

Chen Yu looked at him, and she couldn't stop crying.

"Didn't you ask me for my full name? My name is Chen Yu. Your mother, Chen Xue, is my older sister."

It should be very early, when Chen Yu was still a naive college graduate, full of expectations and came to the United States, the place where his outstanding and beautiful sister married.

My sister has always been her dream since she was a child. She is a graduate of one of the top universities in the country, and a graduate student and master’s degree from a top American university. , but was rejected by her sister.

Since childhood, my sister has rejected too many people, and there are many outstanding ones among them, so when Chen Yu heard that her sister got married in the United States, and married a German, she wanted to go to the United States countless times. , What kind of person is this man who can finally win the heart of his sister.

She saw him, he was a mature man, decisive, successful in his career, handsome and upright.

He even met Yuan Liu, who was two or three years old at the time, and felt that this child was really the most perfect child in the world.

She originally thought that her sister's life should be like this, going on perfectly.

Until one time, she saw a bruise on her sister's arm.

She thought of a possibility at that time, but she didn't say anything, but her attitude towards her brother-in-law became more and more indifferent, until one day, she saw her sister who was beaten black and blue, hugging her knees alone in the corner Weeping, Yuan Liu sat beside his sister, he seemed to have understood something at the age of three or four.

Only then did Chen Yu know that this had been the case for a long time.

Because that man has a mental illness, although it is not serious enough to need to go to the hospital, but he is always irritable from time to time. Serious, even a little bit of trifle, may make him raise his fist.

Every time after beating Chen Xue, that man would slam the door out and never return all night.

Chen Yu's expression was filled with shock and anger that she couldn't even imagine. She was about to get up to argue with the man, but her sister suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Xiao Yu, don't go!"

"Sister! How can you bear it when he treats you like this?!"

Chen Xue's complexion was pale, and the corners of her mouth were still a little red: "It's okay...he's just...too stressed..."

"Sister you..."

"Xiao Yu... I'm pregnant again."

Chen Yu's eyes shrank at that moment, and he knelt down in front of his sister, angrily said: "Sister, I can't have this child! You are pregnant under such circumstances, maybe he will do something to you!"

Chen Xue's hand was slowly placed on her stomach. She was already slender and now she was almost thin and her bones were visible, but her voice was unexpectedly gentle.

"I want to keep this child...it's not his fault..." Chen Xue stroked Yuanliu's hair and said with a smile, "And Yuanliu will have a younger brother or sister, how nice..."

Chen Yu couldn't say a word at that moment, she couldn't comfort Chen Xue, nor could she persuade her.She just hated that man, hated this kind of animal-faced person, why would she ruin the life of her such an excellent sister like this.

After knowing that his sister was pregnant, not only did this man not restrain himself, he even got worse.But one time, when she secretly went to her sister's room at night, she suddenly heard someone's voice in the living room.

Walking cautiously to the living room, she saw a black figure sitting on a chair, her low and dull sobs were magnified countless times in the dark night, and she immediately recognized that it was that man's voice.

The man was crying and muttering something.

She had never seen that arrogant and proud man be so vulnerable.

Until she finally heard clearly what the man was reading.

is her sister's name.

Over and over again, it was her sister's name.

It seems that from that moment on, she began to be afraid of love, and even felt that it was like a tomb that devours people, and there are too many people who cannot survive.

My sister's health is getting worse and worse, but she still forces herself to eat because Yuan Yuan is about to be born.

On the day my sister gave birth, he didn't come.

The older sister, who nearly lost her life due to physical problems, almost soaked the entire sheet with tears when she finally held the tiny, wrinkled baby boy.

But that night, when the child was taken away, she finally received a divorce paper.

It is probably because Yuanliu has grown up, and since he was sensible, he has rejected his father very much. That man wants to raise Yuanyuan himself, so that Yuanyuan can become his successor.

My sister didn't sign it.

On the contrary, she returned home, forcibly hugged Yuan Yuan's cradle, shouting almost hysterically, this is my child!

Since arriving in the United States, she has never seen such a stubborn sister, as if she saw the young girl standing on the podium many years ago with high spirits.

Even though she was insulted and bullied, her elder sister insisted on staying and took care of Yuan Yuan until Yuan Yuan was weaned.

That day, that man really drove her out, looking tired, he didn't want to open his eyes to look at her at all.

"You go, go back to China, I will give you a lot of money."

"...I want my baby."

"You can take Yuanliu back."

"I want both of my children."

"Yuan Yuan is destined to be my heir, you cannot take him away."

"Then I won't go."

"...Chen Xue, you want to understand. Yuanliu has become the taciturn person he is now because of the relationship between the two of us. Do you still want Yuanyuan to become like this? You want both of your children to be unhappy ?!"

At that moment, my sister compromised.

She only made two requests, first: she is allowed to send things to the child, and he is not allowed to stop him; second, after Yuan Yuan grows up, she hopes that he can do what he wants to do.

The man agreed.

So my sister took Yuanliu and followed her back to China.

During the time she returned to China, her health became worse and worse, and she was almost bedridden.Every night, I cried out Yuan Yuan's name in pain, and every time I woke up, I burst into tears but didn't say a word.

She sent many clothes to Yuan Yuan, all made by herself.There are even letters written.

It was only later that she found out that those letters had never been sent to Yuan Yuan.

She still remembers that before her sister died, she was almost out of shape.

Chen Xue didn't say a word, she just lay on her side on the bed, tears kept falling, she looked at herself and Yuan Liu who was already sluggish in front of her, and finally closed her eyes unwillingly.

After that, Chen Yu has been raising Yuanliu.

She also got married, but it was just to appease her parents' pain of losing their beloved daughter. Not long after giving birth to Cheng Cheng, the two elders passed away one after another, and she also resolutely divorced that person, because there was no relationship between them at all.

Yuan Liu became exceptionally good. During this period, he went back to the United States many times. Somehow, he used some means to get the man to admit his identity, and gave Yuan Liu Chen Xue's diary and the letters that had not been handed over to him. source.

He couldn't bear that his mother died so tragically, but this man was not in front of his son, and felt a little bit of guilt.He had to let Yuan Yuan know what kind of person this man was.

When she heard Yuan Liu say that Yuan Yuan fell in love with swimming and the man allowed him to train, she almost cried out of joy.That day she cried bitterly in front of her sister's grave. She really didn't understand that this man had never married after the divorce, and he still remembered the original agreement after so many years.

Why did she still hurt her sister so cruelly back then.

Before Yuan Yuan returned to China, he contacted himself, hoping that he could continue to keep the secret for his sister and not recognize Yuan Yuan.This is not only good for Yuan Yuan, but also good for everyone.

She convinces Yuan Liu.

Even though she almost shed tears when she heard this familiar name in the bar that day.

He really looks like Chen Xue, especially the outline of the eyes, as if carved out of a mold.Seeing Yuan Yuan for the first time, Chen Yu even felt a sense of pleasure.

She thought, for so many years, every time that man saw Yuan Yuan, he would think of his sister.

I will never forget it in my life.

"Your mother...is buried in the cemetery. If you are free...go and visit her grave."

After Chen Yu finished telling the whole story, as if his strength had been exhausted, he fell slightly backwards, and was supported by Ye Chen, who had quick eyesight and quick hands.

Ye Chen glanced at Yao Tao who was stunned, and Yao Tao immediately came to help him.

Yuan Yuan looked very ugly.

His face was pale, even his lips were white, and his eyes seemed to be dead, losing all color.

Holden felt his throat was choked at this moment, looking at Yuan Yuan's appearance, he almost wanted to rush up, hug that person, and tell him: Don't be afraid, there is me.

But now his hands and feet are weak, and he can't touch that person at all, not even a strand of hair.

Yuan Liu also turned his back at this time, and couldn't see his expression clearly. Only when he was close could he see his slightly trembling fingers.

Chen Yu took out a blue book from his bag, just like the color of Yuan Yuan's eyes, slowly opened it, and inside was a dried and withered holly leaf.

Chen Yu handed him to Yuan Yuan, wiped away his tears and smiled.

"Your mother has always thought that your eyes are very beautiful, just like the sky and the stars...and she likes holly very much. I also planted a tree in front of her grave...this is the one she still held in her hand the day she passed away. The holly leaves..."

Yuan Yuan took it tremblingly, as if touching some rare treasure, he slowly stroked the dry leaf with his hand.

It seems to be able to feel the mother's temperature through time and space.

Suddenly grinning, Yuan Yuan actually held back his tears all the time.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them there were blue stars again.

"Mom, I'm back."

66. Make another promise

Chen Yu pulled Yuan Yuan and Yuan Liu and talked for a long time, holding Yuan Yuan's hand with both hands, unwilling to let go.Yuan Yuan listened quietly, although his face was pale, but he forcibly did not shed a single tear.

Huo Dun was supported by Ye Chen and Yao Tao to leave. Before leaving, he took a look at Yuan Yuan, always feeling a little worried.

However, being able to find his aunt, Yuan Yuan finally had a second relative.

He was really, really happy for him.

Due to physical reasons, Horton didn't participate in the training, and didn't bother Chang Yue and Xu Shengyang. He stayed alone in Yuanyuan's room, looking at the sheets that had been replaced. For some reason, he felt a little lonely.

This guy Yuan Yuan couldn't bear to cry in front of Chen Yu, would he cry alone tonight?

This made him, how could he rest assured.

When Chen Yu's mother and daughter arrived in the evening, they refused to live with Huo Dun and the others, and seriously instructed Yuan Yuan and Yuan Liu brothers, their eyes were still red.

Yuan Liu frowned: "Come and live with us."

Chen Yu took Cheng Cheng's hand, shook his head and said with a smile, "No, you are here for the competition. Since I can't help you much, I shouldn't cause you any more trouble."

Yuan Yuan's eyes were always a little sad. Looking at Chen Yu, he pursed his lips and said, "Take care of yourself." It was even more concise than Yuan Liu's words.

Chen Yu smiled slightly, took a deep look at Yuan Yuan, and sighed: "You too... must, must work hard. Your mother and I will be extremely proud of you."

Horton sat in Yuanyuan's room until night, with two cushions on his waist, he felt more comfortable.He didn't turn on the light, he didn't know why, he just wanted to sit in the room blankly, thinking about nothing.

Someone opened the door suddenly, and the door lock clicked, which made Holden a little dazed. He subconsciously turned his head to look, but saw a person standing at the door with the backlight behind him, walking in slowly.

The man didn't turn on the light either, and closed the door with a bang.

Horton subconsciously felt that it was Yuan Yuan, so he quickly got up and turned on the desk lamp.

Under the dim light, Yuan Yuan's tall but very thin figure appeared in front of Holden's eyes, his expression could not be seen clearly, but Holden intuitively felt that he was very sad.

"You...I...that Xu Shengyang and Chang Yue were in the room, and Ding Ying didn't come back...so..." Huo Dun was a little embarrassed, as if he wanted to start a topic.

Seeing Yuan Yuan standing there with his head slightly lowered, he felt inexplicably flustered.

"...I'm going to sleep in Ding Ying's bed today...I'm so sleepy..."

The more anxious I was, the more I didn't know what to say.

For a long time, Yuan Yuan still didn't say a word.

Holden's expression gradually became sad and gloomy, he walked up to the man lightly, and spoke cautiously.

"……How are you?"

Yuan Yuan suddenly raised his head slowly, and stared at Holden with a pair of dim blue eyes, even trembling uncontrollably.

He had long and chapped lips, and he uttered two words lightly.

"Holden..."

Holden hummed lightly, but didn't know what to do.

The next second, Yuan Yuan suddenly stretched out his hands and hugged him tightly.

Holden's head rested on his shoulders, and his hands only subconsciously grasped the hem of his clothes.Yuan Yuan buried his head in the socket of Horton's neck, his warm and moist breath hit his skin, as if he was trembling.

"Holden..."

His voice was literally shaking.

Holden could even feel his eye sockets gradually turning red, and even feel how, how sad this person was.

It seemed that he followed this man and became extremely, extremely sad.

Even the heart seemed to be broken.

"She...is still gone..."

Yuan Yuan choked up for a long time, and said this sentence slowly.

Holden was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what he was talking about. He couldn't help closing his eyes because of the heartache, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't speak at all.

"I thought... I thought... I thought she was my mother..."

"But she's not..."

"My mother... is still gone..."

Stretching out his hands and hugging the person in front of him tightly, Holden almost wanted to feel sorry for him, sad for him.He wanted to share his pain, but he didn't know what to do, so he stretched out his hand and hugged the person in front of him tightly.

"You said... If Yuanliu hadn't told my mother... would it be impossible for me to know how desperate she died in this whole life?"

Feeling Yuan Yuan took a deep breath, bringing the skin a little cold.

Holden opened his eyes and tried to make his tone sound more gentle: "...but you know it now...you knew it when you were very young...your mother...must be very, very happy... Because his son has not forgotten her..."

After a long silence, Yuan Yuan just hugged Holden like this.If he hadn't felt his breath, Holden would almost feel that Yuan Yuan had died.

Suddenly, a wet feeling spread on the neck.

Horton was startled, but he didn't know why his eyes were red.It was the first time he saw, or imagined for the first time, that Yuan Yuan, who was looked up to by countless people, would actually shed tears.

He didn't dare to move, he could only listen to Yuan Yuan's voice ringing in his ears.

"It's so ironic that I haven't seen her in person for so many years..."

"I have a father, an older brother, and even an aunt now... But I feel... I still have nothing. It's the same as when I was a child, sleeping alone in a big but dark room... "

So when he just came in, didn't he turn on the light?

Holden felt as if his heart was being torn apart, something bright red gushed out, and he blurted out almost uncontrollably.

"You still have me."

Yuan Yuan's body trembled.

Holden hugged the person in front of him even harder, and repeated softly: "Yuan Yuan, I'm still here."

As he had told him that night on Christmas.

I'm here all the time.

"Tomorrow... let's go see Auntie... shall we?"

Yuan Yuan raised his head slowly, almost inconceivably, looking at Holden with a pair of hazy eyes, and there were even tiny teardrops on the eyelashes.

He looked at Holden's cheeks that looked extraordinarily soft under the light, and those gentle, shining peach-like eyes.

Yuan Yuan's mind seemed to be empty all of a sudden.

All the sadness, all the sadness, all the misfortunes, all gone.

He looked at Holden, with a long mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Huo Dun smiled slightly, let go of his hands, pushed Yuan Yuan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey. What kind of expression is this? You want to defeat Tang Fengyun and me. Why are you crying like a little girl? Back then Who said they wanted to see me cry? Who cried first now?"

The brilliance in Yuan Yuan's eyes recovered in an instant, and the azure blue pupils looked like beautiful gems under the dim light.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he couldn't help laughing in a low voice, reaching out and pulling Holden's cheek.

"Oh? Are you sure you want to know who cried first? How did I remember someone crying and shouting on the bed yesterday..."

He stretched out his hand to cover Yuan Yuan's mouth, Huo Dun's face was already flushed red.

He didn't want to recall what he yelled at that time, but helplessly, those pictures appeared in his mind like a movie, which made Holden's ears more and more red.

Yuan Yuan's eyes blinked slightly, and the teardrops on his half-dried eyelashes shone like diamonds.

He stretched out his hand suddenly, pressed Holden's hand on his lips, and kissed it gently.

Huo Dun was slightly taken aback, then withdrew his hand, and said angrily, "What are you doing?!" After saying this sentence, he immediately regretted it, because he knew that after this sentence, Yuan Yuan would follow up the sentence logically Very nasty words.

Holden hurriedly said: "...If you're okay... go and wash up! I'm so sleepy!"

Yuan Yuan blinked his eyes, sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to hold Huo Dun in his arms, and rubbed his waist, his voice was unexpectedly gentle.

"Does your back still hurt?"

Holden turned his head and said, "Nonsense... Do you think it's easy to stand for so long just now?"

With a chuckle, Yuan Yuan buried his head in Holden's waist, gently massaged him with both hands, and kept talking.

"Then let you go today..."

Huo Dun felt his heart slowed down by half a beat, he stretched out his hand and slapped Yuan Yuan hard, and said angrily, "Don't worry about me sleeping over Ding Ying's side."

"That's not allowed." Yuan Yuan laughed, "Where do newlyweds sleep in separate rooms?"

Holden's face was on fire, and he grabbed Yuan Yuan's hand and said angrily, "Mr. and Mrs., sir! Get out!"

He stretched out his hand and wrapped Holden's waist completely, as if he was smiling, but also seemed to be talking about a very normal thing.

"You said...would Mom be happy if she saw her daughter-in-law?"

"..."

The two stood like this for a long time, and Yuan Yuan's muffled voice sounded faintly.

"Holden, say it again, say that promise again."

Horton was taken aback for a moment, then looked down at Yuan Yuan: "What?"

"Say you... are by my side and won't leave."

He felt vigilantly that this guy was cheating himself, the meaning of this sentence was extremely profound, but Horton couldn't help himself when he saw Yuan Yuan nestled in his arms like a child.

"I'll be by your side and I won't go. Absolutely."

Horton and Yuan Yuan went to the cemetery early the next morning and found Yuan Yuan's mother's tomb without a hitch.Unexpectedly, there were three bouquets of flowers on the tomb.

One bouquet seemed to have dried up for a long time, while the other two were much fresher and brighter.

Yuan Yuan put a bunch of baby's breath in front of his mother's grave, looked at the holly, and was silent for a long, long time.

Huo Dun watched from the side, then looked at Chen Xue's beautiful face on the tombstone, and said with a smile in his heart.

"Auntie. Your two sons are very, very good people."

In the next few days, because of training and meetings, and of course, the more important reason is that the semi-finals are about to come, so Horton and Chang Yue switched back to the room.Of course, Xu Shengyang and Huo Dun were embarrassed for a while when they saw the red marks on each other's bodies when they took off their clothes before going to bed at night.

Everything is peaceful.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day, four days before the semi-finals, that Yao Tao and Ye Chen returned from the organizing committee and brought back a schedule for the semi-finals.

With a slightly complicated expression, Yao Tao finally put the A4 paper in front of everyone, with a dignified expression.

"You guys... see for yourself."

Zhou Fanfan quickly got the game schedule, scanned it quickly, and his face immediately changed.

Holden's eyes were fixed on the three words on the form.

"Challenge?!"

Almost in disbelief, Chang Yue patted the table and stood up: "What do you mean!? We are going to participate in the challenge tomorrow? Why?!"

Yao Tao's expression was solemn, and he said calmly: "The challenge competition is actually an exhibition competition, and it is often a way to attract public opinion and popularity. With the emergence of powerful schools in recent years, few people choose to waste time and energy on it."

"But this time, someone named the challenge."

Holden frowned tightly, looking at the other four words on the list almost in disbelief.

bryant.

Ye Chen crossed his legs, seemed to be thinking, and said lightly: "...the challenge is conditional...but the winner can get an extra generous reward...that is the attention of the national team. This is an excellent opportunity , a chance to add points. But at the same time, this is also likely to be a...wrong decision."

Yao Tao turned the pen around and said, "We don't need to accept the challenge, but..."

"However, this is giving in to softness."

Ye Chen crossed his hands and said lightly: "Admit defeat in advance. Are you willing?"

Everyone in Tongnan shook their heads at the same time, Zhou Fanfan even jumped up when he slapped the table, and said angrily: "I'm afraid of his uncle! I want these guys to know how to write the word Zhou!"

Horton was a little silent, looked at the arrangement of the semi-finals, and frowned: "...we will also meet them in the semi-finals of freestyle, backstroke, 400-meter full event and butterfly?...and..."

Chang Yue's complexion was very ugly. Looking at the list at this time, he said lightly, "I c..."

Zhou Fanfan came over to look at the list, and was also shocked.

"The person in the group with Chang Yue... is Jiahe's?"

Ye Chen shrugged, as if a tacit consent, and then said: "Breaststroke is not Jiahe's strong point, but... that is also very strong."

Yao Tao frowned and asked, "Chang Yue, have you read the profile of Jia He's breaststroke swimmer?"

Chang Yue let out a long sigh of relief, suddenly looked very indifferent, leaned on the chair, and said, "No. I don't want to know either."

"It doesn't matter what his grades are, as long as I win."

Xie Yu frowned slightly, looked at the name of the person named Chen Liang on the list, and said lightly: "This person... looks familiar."

Yao Tao looked at the person named Chen Liang, curled her lips helplessly and said, "This is that gloomy little prince, Chen Liang who is called Jia He's right-hand man."

"Bryant's two strongest events are the butterfly stroke and the backstroke. Of course, there is no guarantee for all events because there is no competition data." Yao Tao turned the pen with a serious face: "So, Xie Yu What we have to face is almost a small microcosm of the final."

"Oh..." Xie Yu said lightly, "I see."

Yao Tao sighed slightly, looked at the people who were thinking deeply, smiled slightly, and said, "But... I don't think there is any need for you to be so sad... In fact, our luck is not particularly bad..."

When everyone looked up, they saw Yao Tao's face was a little embarrassed.

"I think this tm is the secret operation of the organizing committee... because although Chang Heng does not have a challenge, but basically all of their events, except freestyle and breaststroke, will directly encounter Jia Hyuk."

Ye Chen's smile was a little cold, almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

"This group of old things... don't want to live for a long time..."

The challenge was accepted by Tong Nan immediately, and the news immediately spread throughout the competition teams in city b and the audience who followed the competition.Tong Nan's performance in the preliminary competition was too outstanding and dazzling, especially Ye Chen's almost indiscriminate entrapment methods, which directly made the whole world know Tong Nan.

Although their results in the preliminary competition did not seem to be very outstanding, anyone with a little internal knowledge would know that this was definitely not their true strength.

If you want to see the true strength of these people, you have to fight against them.

For example, Bryant who made the challenge application for the first time, and Tong Nan who accepted it without hesitation.

Outside the stadium on the day of the competition, even the gamblers came, and they almost fought [-] rounds with the urban management comrades.

Huo Dun walked into the stadium, thanking Yuan Yuan for his obedience these two days, and not harassing him too much, allowing his body to fully recover to the state of the game, even Xu Shengyang was eager to try.

Although it does not have any impact on the progress of the competition, the challenge is a window for public opinion.

In Yao Tao's words, the Challenger League is simply an ideal venue for all kinds of intrigues and wits.

After hearing this, Ye Chen spoke very calmly.

"It's okay. I don't dare to fight bravely, fight wit? They haven't reached the point where I need to use wit
