A dolphin wants to tease me

Ye Lin asked curiously, "What did you bring back?"

"Mom made it. Search: \(,,,,,) read high-quality literature for free and go back to the dormitory to eat together." Xia Zhi replied.

He deliberately didn't say whose mother did it.

Chen Jiarun in the front row immediately turned around: "Is it delicious? I want to eat too!"

Xia Zhi pushed his head back: "You go to Boss Luo and take care of yourself."

But as soon as he got back to the dormitory, Chen Jiarun couldn't wait to open the box.

"What is this? It's so interesting!"

It is bread wrapped with ham sausage, made into the shape of a pig, and asparagus sandwiched.

"What's so interesting?" Ye Lin walked over, and the moment he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

He looked at Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi was arranging his sports bag on the table with his back to him.

Chen Jiarun took one and was about to put it in his mouth, but Ye Lin snatched it away.

"Ye Lin! What are you doing!"

"It's not for you." Ye Lin bit off one in one bite.

Chen Jiarun immediately went to grab the box, who knew that Ye Lin was faster than him, took the box and threw it on his upper bunk.

"Ye Lin—that's made by Xia Zhi's mother! It's for everyone!"

"You hit me."

Ye Lin climbed to the top of the bunk, lay down and ate another one.

Chen Jiarun tugged at Xia Zhi angrily: "Look at him! Cheapskate! Get it back quickly!"

Xia Zhi walked under Ye Lin's shop, shook it a bit: "Have you eaten?"

Ye Lin pinched a little pig and brought it to Xia Zhi's mouth.

Xia Zhi unceremoniously took a bite, it was delicious, a taste children like.

Ye Lin lowered his head to look at Xia Zhi, and asked him: "Mother made it, is it delicious?"

You can taste the taste of mother in one bite.Of course Ye Lin knew who did it.

"Well, delicious."

Chen Jiarun leaned over, raised his head and said, "Then give me one too!"

Ye Lin turned the box upside down and showed him: "It's gone, why don't you lick the box?"

"You are too much, Ye Lin! Give Xia Zhi one, but I don't!"

"I only feed those who sleep with me, do you want to sleep with me?" Ye Lin said with a smile.

"...I'm used to sleeping by myself." Chen Jiarun left resentfully.

In order to prepare for the semi-finals on the second day, the lights in the dormitory were turned off at 09:30.

Ye Lin stretched his hand from the bedside railing, and touched Xia Zhi's head.

"Thank you."

"Between us, don't say thank you."

Xia Zhi soon fell asleep.

Ye Lin's hand stretched from the bed rail to Xia Zhi's bed, and touched under Xia Zhi's pillow, where Ye Lin's medal from that year was still pressed.

The next day's competition started, and the swimming pool was obviously more lively than the day before.

College swimming competitions have never had as many spectators and fans as basketball or football games, but after browsing the forums of various schools yesterday, no matter whether it is Ye Lin, Xia Zhi, or other athletes, they have become fans.

It is obviously a water sport, but it is very hot. When the photos taken with the shutter are posted, they are full of movement, and they are so handsome that they have no friends.

Now, the most popular forum is the inter-school league. Some students have no place to sit when they come, so they can only squeeze three people into two seats.

Fortunately, Ye Shen, Lu Yan, and Tian Rui came early, otherwise they wouldn't be able to occupy their seats.

Before the game even started, the cheerleaders were already competing with each other.

Chen Fanghua and Jiao Ting are far away from here, so they have to get up early every time they come here and take a taxi to come here. Fortunately, the Q big cheerleaders come early, and Pan has always reserved a seat for them.

"Thank you, one after another! Without you, we would have to watch the game!"

Chen Fanghua sat down and found that not only the position was in the front, but also the viewing angle was very good.

"That's right, you are our Xia Zhinan's mother!" Pan said one after another.

"A boy's mother is a girl!" The other students also booed.

Chen Fanghua's face turned red with embarrassment. At this age, children still say she is a girl.

The first was the 50-meter semi-finals. Xia Zhi, He Jinfeng, and Shen Yao were all divided into one group.From the beginning of the game, it was an extremely hot competition, and the audience focused on it.

There is no room for reservation at 50 meters, and it must be stretched to the end in one breath.The audience in the stands also stretched their necks and refused to blink their eyes.Xia Zhi, He Jinfeng, and Shen Yao seem to maintain a rhythm no matter they are out of the water or in the water, and every time they move forward, they are full of strength.

When the three of them reached the finish line, they couldn't tell who came first.

In their group, Shen Yao ranked first, Xia Zhi was [-] seconds behind and ranked second, and He Jinfeng ranked third.

"The second one...wouldn't it be possible to make it to the final?" Chen Fanghua became worried. After all, these young people competed so well one by one.

"I made it, I made it!" Pan hastened to comfort Chen Fanghua, "Their level in this group is relatively high. To put it bluntly, it's really reached the finals, maybe the top three will be the three of them!"

"That's good." Chen Fanghua patted his chest.

Immediately after that, the second group was that of Ye Lin and Lu Chen.

Xia Zhi looked at the starting platform while wiping the water, Ye Lin had already stepped up, and beside him was Lu Chen.

These two had fought in advance before the final, even if they didn't say a word, they didn't even have a direct confrontation, just lowered their body and took a preparatory posture, Xia Zhi could feel the strong atmosphere of confrontation.

I remember watching Ye Lin's games in the past, I always felt that he was very calm on the starting platform, as if winning or losing was out of his mind, and there was still a slight smile on his mouth.But today, his lips are stretched, and his body is like a fully drawn bowstring, ready to go.

Xia Zhi, He Jinfeng, and Shen Yao didn't go in to change clothes, but watched from not far away with bath towels on.

"Today, Ye Lin is quite serious." He Jinfeng said.

"How do you know when he's serious or not?" Shen Yao asked.

"If you have competed with him in an official competition, you will know. I was in the same group with him in the 100m semi-finals last year. He definitely does not have the momentum he has today." He Jinfeng replied.

Xia Zhi didn't say a word, just looked at Ye Lin's side face, followed him into the water with his eyes, and started to paddle vigorously.

Ye Lin and Lu Chen dragged the water forward, forming two imposing water waves.

Xia Zhi clenched his fists, his heart was beating violently uncontrollably, as if every stroke of Ye Lin was a vigorous surge in Xia Zhi's blood.

"Quick-quick-quick-" He Jinfeng shouted together with the audience around him.

Ye Lin and Lu Chen rushed to the finish line with the momentum of crashing into the pool wall.

"How's the result... come out quickly!"

Everyone looked at the electronic board in unison.

The first place is Lu Chen, and the second is Ye Lin, the gap is very small.

"Ah! It's a little short..." He Jinfeng sighed.

"It seems that you really hope that Ye Lin can beat Lu Chen?" Shen Yao asked.

"That's... After all, Ye Lin is a little familiar with it, and Lu Chen is not at all."

Xia Zhi and Shen Yao exchanged a look of "what's the reason?".

After the 50-meter semi-finals are over, it is confirmed that Lu Chen, Ye Lin, Xia Zhi, Shen Yao and He Jinfeng have all entered the final.

After a few more competitions, Xia Zhi and Ye Lin rested for more than an hour, and the semi-finals of the 100-meter freestyle came soon.

"You are about to meet Lu Chen in the 100-meter semi-final." Ye Lin said in a low voice.

"Yeah." Xia Zhi got up calmly, and stretched his neck, "I still have a place to warm up, can you warm me up?"

"Ah? I'm afraid I don't have enough time." Ye Lin lowered her head and looked at Xia Zhi's swimming trunks.

Xia Zhi only said "fool", then lowered his head, pulled Ye Lin's neckline, and touched his lips.

Seeing someone approaching, Xia Zhi let go, but Ye Lin clasped the back of Xia Zhi's head again, and wrapped Xia Zhi tightly with the tip of his tongue.

"Is it warm?" Ye Lin raised her head and asked.

"Too lazy to care about you." Xia Zhi turned around and left.

But when Ye Lin saw it, Xia Zhi smiled.

Competitors entered the arena, and when Xia Zhi moved his body, he was also looking at the front.

There was no expression on Lu Chen's face, and there was an unspeakable expectation in his heart, because he knew that when Xia Zhi was chasing by his side, the thrill of being able to overtake him at any time was a powerful stimulus, which made him swim. On the other hand, Lu Chen had a premonition that once Xia Zhi surpassed him, even if it was only for a moment, it would be impossible to win back.

It was a devastating and irreversible defeat.

Although it was only over a month since we hadn't seen each other, at the moment he and Xia Zhi got on the starting platform shoulder to shoulder, Lu Chen felt a kind of weight, like a cloud, which has been brewing and accumulating, falling heavily into the air, and is about to pour down.

Xia Zhi and Lu Chen lowered their bodies to prepare almost at the same time, and the audience focused on them.

"Last month's Q City College League, whether it was 100 meters or 200 meters, the gap between Xia Zhi and Lu Chen was very subtle. I always feel that if anyone can bear to beat Lu Chen this time, it will be Xia Zhi." Ren Fei looked at Xia Zhi and said.

"Teacher, why Xia Zhi? Of course Xia Zhi is great, but what about Ye Lin?" Xiao Bin asked curiously.

"Of course Ye Lin is powerful. He looks non-threatening, gentle and restrained, but once he enters the water, he will have a sharp contrast with him on the shore. It seems that the softness of the fingers instantly turns into a hundred steels, and the world will be blunt. .When he is around, it always makes people feel that the champion belongs to him for granted."

"Then why don't you think Ye Lin might win against Chase Lu?"

"Compared to Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi has a very special... special inner core, which burns very violently. He is not as hot and dazzling as Lu Chen, but he tightly closes my eyes, which makes me have a moment. A strong desire for him to win."

"Teacher... Although I don't know what words to use to describe it, I seem to have the same feeling as you."

"Compared to Xia Zhi, Ye Lin is just a little bit worse. When he crosses this distance, there will be thousands of miles of wind and infinite blue sky."

Ren Fei and Xiao Bin once again set their sights on Lu Chen and Xia Zhi.

With a "beep -" sound, Xia Zhi and Lu Chen submerged in the water, and at almost the same moment they were still paddling and rushing forward.

The water was flying high, and Lu Chen had no intention of holding back since entering the water, but Xia Zhi was keeping pace with him, with a fierce spirit.

The closer he was to turning around, the tighter Lu Chen's heart became.

After the last competition, he has been strengthening his turning training for a month. He imagined Xia Zhi's turning in countless places in his mind, with strength and smoothness, and harmony of the whole body, as if every inch of muscle was most beautifully mobilized. Uninterrupted with this body of water.

It's finally time to turn around!

Xia Zhi followed the fastest Chase Lu smoothly and naturally.

Xia Zhi tried his best to catch up with Lu Chen. Although he was in the swimming pool, the water in his body seemed to be evaporated, and the blood all over his body rolled forward.

"So strong..." He Jinfeng frowned.

In the duel between masters, Lu Chen and Xia Zhi did not hold back, their muscles, blood and heartbeat were compressed infinitely, and the power that burst forth afterwards was unimaginable.

Shen Yao didn't speak, his eyes were cold and stern, and he clenched his fingers tightly.

In the last breath-holding swim, the contest between the two reached its peak, the splash of water turned into the cold light of countless stars colliding, the drumbeat of the heartbeat was covered by the sound of kicking water, Xia Zhi could feel that Ye Lin was looking at him.

Ye Lin's gaze has been following him from the beginning, chasing him, penetrating into every cell of him, pulling him in the depths of his thoughts.

When the two reached the finish line, the entire audience was about to exclaim.

As soon as Lu Chen came out of the water, before he had time to adjust his breathing, he couldn't wait to look at the electronic card.

The sound of the heartbeat overwhelmed everything, she had already swam, and for Xia Zhi, it was a thing of the past, and the result could not be changed.He just calmly adjusted his state, undulating in the water, and then he heard the applause of the audience.

"Oh...it's just a little bit worse!" He Jinfeng pressed Shen Yao's shoulder next to him.

Shen Yao swung his arm down.

"Instead of regretting that Xia Zhi is a little short of Lu Chen, it's better to think about how much you are short of Xia Zhi."

"Shen Yao, you are really annoying."

"We are rivals, not lovers. I don't need you to like me."

Said, Shen Yao put on headphones and listened to music to adjust his state, He Jinfeng looked at him and couldn't help but get serious.

Seeing that he was number one in the group, Chase Lu closed his eyes and let out a breath.

Xia Zhi raised the waterline, passed by him, and said lightly, "How does the probation feel?"

Lu Chen's heart was hit hard, he looked at Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi was raising the waterline on the other side, the corners of his mouth were slightly sunken, confident but not ostentatious.

He knew very well that it would be a matter of time before he surpassed Chase Lu.

Lu Chen gritted his teeth. There has never been an opponent like Xia Zhi, who obviously lost, but made him feel unconquerable.

Xia Zhi went ashore, covered with a bath towel, and was hugged by Ye Lin before she entered the dressing room.

"What did you say to Lu Chen?"

"you guess?"

Ye Lin's ears are right next to Xia Zhi's lips, which makes people want to bear it.

Xia Zhi bit the cartilage of Ye Lin's ear directly.

"Ah..." Ye Lin snorted softly, covered her ears and raised her head, looking at Xia Zhi with the corners of her mouth curled up and looking at herself, "little thing, don't play with fire and set yourself on fire."

"Your opponent in the semi-finals is Shen Yao, do you still have the strength?" Xia Zhi smiled and left.

Ye Lin closed his eyes, and thought to himself, this fire is burning, and he wants to drag that bad boy over and throw him into the pool to bully him severely.

So in the next group, Ye Lin's momentum was strong, he continued to maintain his advantage, overwhelmed Shen Yao, and tied Xia Zhi's semi-final results.

"Teacher Ren, I actually think Ye Lin's performance in the preliminaries and semi-finals this year is better than before." Xiao Bin said while looking at the replay on the camera.

"Well, I am looking forward to the final more and more."

In the men's 200m freestyle semi-finals, the swimming pool was still full of flames, and the tumbling spray was the loudest artillery fire.

Xia Zhi and Ye Lin successfully entered the finals, while Lu Chen was still number one.

"In this competition, Chase Lu stands there like a benchmark, leading the way. This is like Ye Lin from a few years ago."

Some media reporters said with emotion.

"From what you said, it seems that Ye Lin is old and out of control." Another reporter joked.

"When Ye Lin's skills are mature and his physical strength is at its peak, there are only talents from generation to generation. Who can always be the champion?"

"Yeah, don't look at the gap of less than half a second, but to improve this little bit, it may not be possible to achieve it in months or even years!"

Xiao Bin heard them discussing here, although he couldn't find a rebuttal, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart.

Ren Fei said: "Actually, this era belongs to both Ye Lin and Lu Chen, as well as Xia Zhi, Shen Yao, and He Jinfeng...it is the best situation to be able to motivate each other to create better results. And The so-called first is always just a record at a certain moment, and it doesn't even represent tomorrow."

"It's still what Teacher Ren said well, don't judge a hero by victory or defeat."

When all the semi-finals are over, the swimming team will go back to school after a rest.

The swimming team made a detour to send Chen Fanghua and Jiao Ting to the hospital of the training class. In order to watch Xia Zhi's game during the day, they specially transferred their shifts, and they had to go to the emergency room at night, so that they could watch Xia Zhi's again after the night shift the next day. It's game.

"Mom, you've worked so hard." Xia Zhi said distressedly.

"It's not hard, mom is watching you compete, and your whole body is full of energy!"

As soon as Chen Fanghua said what he said, everyone in the car laughed.

That night, Xia Zhi rarely suffered from insomnia before the game.

They turned off the lights at ten o'clock, and Xia Zhi was still asleep at 10:30. He put his hand under the pillow and kept touching the medal.

At this moment, the bed swayed, and it was Ye Lin who stepped over the head of the bed and came to Xia Zhi's bed.

"Why?" Xia Zhi sat up cautiously.

Of course he still remembered the joke he had with Ye Lin during today's match.

When this guy is doing certain things, he has more energy than in the swimming pool, Xia Zhi is a little scared of him.

Ye Lin hugged Xia Zhi and pressed her into his arms.

The more Xia Zhi struggled, the tighter Ye Lin hugged her.

"My respect is right here, if you don't touch me, what's the point of touching my medal?"

Ye Lin's voice is very mellow, especially in such a quiet night, it is very low, with a little hoarse ending, as if there are countless strings that are so thin that they will break when touched, but Ye Lin just provoked the last one. The sensitive one.

"Ye Lin, have you ever been nervous in a match?" Xia Zhi's voice was muffled.

"Of course." Ye Lin stretched out his hand and lightly clasped the back of Xia Zhi's head, between his fingers was the boy's soft hair stubble, like a sprout emerging from the warm soil to explore the world curiously, making Ye Lin's heart The heart also softened.

"I forgot... you mean when you find yourself swimming mid-game?"

"Yeah. Xia Zhi, I envy you, I envy Lu Chen, I envy He Jinfeng, I envy all of you who are so energetic, thinking that you can swim faster this second than the last second. And I... I am at this moment I used more force than the last moment. I don’t know how hard I have reached. This is my limit. I’m afraid to touch that limit. It’s like fortune-telling. When you know your fate in advance, such as knowing that you are drowned, There will be an infinite fear of water."

Xia Zhi hugged him tightly.

"But this time I'm looking forward to the final. I want to swim with you. Whether I can beat Chase Lu is not a big deal. I want to cross that boundary, and I want to go to your world." Ye Lin said softly.

Xia Zhi's heart trembled, Ye Lin has always been such a powerful existence, Xia Zhi has been chasing him, so wanting to rush into his world, that kind of perfect harmony between human and water.

"Don't be afraid, I will accompany you... Let's cross that boundary together."

Xia Zhi hugged each other tightly, the space they snuggled together was very small, so small that each other's backs were the barriers of this small world, but what Xia Zhi thought of in his mind was ruffian and Lele.

The sea is deep, vast, and turbulent and changeable, but as long as they are together, even if the wind is high and the waves are fierce, they can enjoy it.

Just like him and Ye Lin.

Xia Zhi closed his eyes, Ye Lin's body temperature was like the warmest sea water, submerging him.

The next day, when the alarm rang, the whole dormitory was in motion.

Even Chen Jiarun, who has to sleep late every time, is difficult but determined to use the technique of separating the back from the bed.

After Xia Zhi got up, he glanced at his phone. There were countless messages on WeChat, all of which were from his classmates wishing him a successful start in today's competition.He sent a WeChat message to his mother: Empress Dowager, please come back after breakfast, don't worry, the seat has already been reserved.

When she came back after brushing her teeth and washing her face, there was no activity on Chen Fanghua's WeChat.

After packing up their things, Xia Zhi and Ye Lin checked each other, and then got on the bus.

On the way, Xia Zhi pressed Ye Lin's shoulder habitually, he took out his phone to check, but Chen Fanghua still didn't reply to WeChat.

Either they are still resting, my mother often sleeps on the table in the duty room for a while after the night shift, or they are having breakfast with Jiao Ting.

Xia Zhi sent a WeChat message to Cen Qinghui: Tell your mother, the seat is reserved for them, and come back after breakfast.

Cen Qinghui's text message was quickly replied: I will tell them, you play well.

"What's wrong?" Ye Lin lowered her head and asked.

"It's nothing... It's just that my mother never replied to my WeChat." Xia Zhi frowned slightly, staring at Cen Qingyi's reply, he always felt a little weird.

If it was normal, Cen Qinghui would have joked on WeChat a long time ago, saying something like "the two empress dowagers are having dinner, so please don't disturb me", she would not have answered so seriously.

There was a faint bad feeling in Xia Zhi's heart.

Ye Lin beside him also felt his emotion, raised his hand and tugged at his ear: "Are you worried about something?"

"My mother doesn't reply to my WeChat. I called her before leaving, and Aunt Jiao answered. Aunt Jiao said that she was communicating with patients and they would come over later. But Aunt Jiao's voice is also weird..."

"It seems that if you don't see Auntie, you don't have the heart to compete."

The car entered the gymnasium, and the athletes began to check in.

Xia Zhi took the time to go to the location where the Q big cheerleaders were, and found Pan Junyun, but did not see Cen Qinghui.

"One after another, didn't Cen Qinghui come with you?"

Xia Zhi lowered her body, and Pan Funan's face immediately turned red.

"That... When we called Qing Yi in the morning, he said that he was busy and would take a taxi later, and asked us to reserve the seat for him..."

"That's it, thank you."

Xia Zhi nodded, took his mobile phone and immediately called Cen Qinghui.

As soon as it was connected, I heard Cen Qinghui's lively voice: "Ah Zhi, why are you calling me? Are you going to check in soon?"

"Where are you?" Xia Zhi asked.

"I'm on my way! Hahaha!"

There was an echo on Cen Qinghui's phone, it sounded like she was in the bathroom... or in the corridor of the hospital.

Over there, the voice of the patient's family members calling for the doctor was faintly heard.

Xia Zhi's heart immediately became cold.

"Qing Wei, are you in the hospital? Did something happen to my mother?"

"Where...what's the matter! I said I just came to have breakfast with them in the morning, and then went there with them. Are you nervous before the game? Have you been thinking about it?"

"Well, let my mother answer the phone."

"Aunt Chen is in the bathroom, can I go to the female guard to find her? I will be beaten to death!"

"Qing Yi..." Xia Zhi lowered her head, her voice became very serious, "That's my mother, I'm worried about her now, if you don't tell me the truth, I will always think about it Maybe concentrate on the game. No one will be satisfied with the result of such a game. So, you might as well tell the truth."

Cen Qinghui on the other side was silent.After hearing him take a deep breath, he said: "At four or five o'clock this morning, I happened to meet a pregnant woman whose amniotic fluid broke in a car accident, and hurriedly brought him here... At that time, there was a lot of chaos. Your mother followed the pregnant woman." Doing first aid at your side...the family members are too anxious...there was a dispute with the emergency doctor, your mother was pushed and fell down the stairs..."

Xia Zhi was stunned: "And then?"

"I knocked my head on the steps, and I haven't woken up until now..."

"I'm going over now!"

"My mother and I are here to accompany you, you still..."

"Or what? It's impossible for me to concentrate on the game! There will be more games in the future, but my mother is injured and still hasn't woken up. How can I compete?"

Xia Zhi immediately went to find Bai Jingwen.

After several coaches heard about it, they all agreed that Xia Zhi rushed to the hospital.

"But if this is the case, you will definitely not be able to catch up with the 50-meter final. From here to the hospital, according to the requirements of the competition committee, you must report an hour before the start of the competition. You may not be able to catch up with the 100-meter final." Coach Mo felt that it was a pity.

"The 200-meter final is scheduled for the first game in the afternoon. If you are sure that your mother is in good condition, I hope you can participate." Coach Wang also felt that it was a pity, but nothing is more important than family.

Bai Jingwen called the driver of the bus and asked him to drive Xia Zhi to the hospital himself.

As soon as Xia Zhi turned around, he saw Ye Lin there.

Ye Lin, who always had a smile on his face no matter what happened, didn't have any expression on his face at this moment.

"I want to go with you."

Xia Zhi didn't speak, but hugged Ye Lin.

"I'll be back." Xia Zhi said.

Ye Lin didn't speak, but hugged Xia Zhi tightly.

When he knew that something happened to Xia Zhi's mother, he knew that Xia Zhi would definitely go.

"I'm... used to having you by my side in every game. I can succeed in every game because I know that sooner or later I will meet you in the final..."

Of course Xia Zhi understood, understood Ye Lin's fear of that boundary all along.

Every athlete doesn't know where his limit is, and he tells himself that he can swim faster and faster.

But Ye Lin was the opposite of them. When he lost himself in the water with all his strength, he knew his limit in advance.

As an athlete, there is nothing more hopeless than knowing where you can go the fastest.

"Ye Lin, didn't you ask me what I said to Lu Chen in the 100-meter semi-final?"

"What did you say?"

"I said, 'how does the probation feel like'?" Xia Zhi held up Ye Lin's face, and looked into Ye Lin's eyes forcefully, "Ye Lin, if you are worried that you will swim in the water, you will feel that today's game If you can't win, then think about Chase Lu. He is afraid of me because he knows... he will lose to me sooner or later. He is getting closer and closer to that result every game, so he is afraid of me!"

Ye Lin closed his eyes, he could hear the powerful voice in Xia Zhi's voice.

"Win him for me. There's enough time on probation. Except for myself, I only believe you can do it."

Xia Zhi kissed Ye Lin on the forehead, completely ignoring the staff and other athletes who were coming and going.

It seems that all the hustle and bustle of the world have been removed.

"Ye Lin, you have to remember that your limit is definitely not what you imagined."

Xia Zhi took a step back, smiled and said to Ye Lin: "I will be back. I will definitely be back."

Ye Lin looked at Xia Zhi's back, just like every Saturday before, he attached himself to the ruffian's body and watched Xia Zhi leave.

The whole space seemed to be flooded by icy water, and he was the only one left, so lonely that even his blood cooled down.

I depend on you.

I depend on you more than I thought, even for my breath.

The news that Xia Zhi could not participate in the 50-meter final quickly spread.

Lu Chen frowned while arranging his swimming cap and said, "The Q swimming team is really interesting. Ye Lin couldn't participate in the finals last time, and Xia Zhi couldn't participate in the finals this time."

His teammate said: "There are about two hours between the 50m and 100m finals. Maybe Xia Zhi can come back in time for the 100m."

"I hope." Lu Chen stretched his swimming cap.

Every time he played against Xia Zhi, he felt both excited and apprehensive.

When Xia Zhi said "how does the probation feel like", the fear of being deliberately ignored by Lu Chen surged into his heart again.

He was secretly happy that Xia Zhi was unable to participate in the competition.

After the secret joy, there is a kind of emptiness and annoyance.

The 50-meter final was about to enter the arena. With earphones plugged into Ye Lin's ears, she was listening to the song "Little Star", but she didn't listen to anything in her mind.

He looked at the calm water, suddenly feeling a little dazed.

Luo Li walked to Ye Lin's side and patted him on the shoulder: "Calm down."

Ever since Xia Zhi left, Luo Li noticed that Ye Lin's whole body sank, like a stone, sank to the bottom of the water without any struggle.

Ye Lin lowered his head and said half-jokingly, "Will you jump down to save me this time?"

"No. The competition committee won't let me go to the pool. And you don't need me to rescue you, because you have the ability to go ashore."

Ye Lin closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

When did it start?

He loves swimming, not just being in the water.

Probably because Xia Zhi fell in love with swimming, so she fell in love with swimming.

But without Xia Zhi's swimming pool, you can't feel his gaze, and you don't have the strength to paddle, not just the swimming pool, it seems that even swimming is meaningless.

Ye Lin got on the starting platform, and Lu Chen, Shen Yao, and He Jinfeng were all ready.

This is currently the most peak-level competition in college swimming, and the 50-meter freestyle is the most intuitive competition for explosive power.

Xiao Bin looked sideways at Ren Fei, and could feel the trace of regret in his eyes.

"Is it because Xia Zhi didn't participate?"

"Yeah... I'm still looking forward to seeing his explosive power that makes people's blood boil!"

"I inquired with Coach Bai that Xia Zhi might be able to catch up with the 100-meter final. If he can't make it in the 100-meter final, there is still a good chance of catching up with the 200-meter final at [-]:[-] in the afternoon."

"Then let's see if anyone can suppress Chase Lu."

Other media reporters discussed.

"Xia Zhi gave up the race. It seems that in the 50 meters, Lu Chen will be the best."

"Ye Lin might be able to beat Chase Lu!"

"Ye Lin didn't compete for the whole year last year, so it's good to be able to recover now! I think Shen Yao might be able to compete with Lu Chen."

At this moment, all the participating athletes had already stepped onto the starting platform, and the competition was about to begin.

Ye Lin took a deep breath. He felt that it was very cold in the swimming pool. He had done enough warm-up, but his body seemed unable to warm up.

With a sound of "beep--", Ye Lin was like water, and he tried his best to catch up, surrounded by the sound of powerful water.

"come on! Come on--"

The audience was so excited that the pool seemed to be boiling.

Bai Jingwen clenched his fists, his fingers turned white with force, and he said silently in his heart: Don't relax...don't relax!Ye Lin!

Ye Lin said to herself that Xia Zhi was waiting for her in front.

But it feels like when he was a child looking at the sea covered with stars, when night fell, he couldn't find Xia Zhi.

The more frantically you swim forward, the more you don't know where the shore is.

Can't lose, he can't lose!

Ye Lin cut through the water with his arms and rushed forward. He saw the boundary clearly and clearly between him and the clearest sea area. He tried hard to touch it, but he was about to cross it. In an instant, his hand had already touched the finish line.

When the results were printed on the electronic version, everyone exclaimed.

This time the 50-meter score was quite impressive, and half of the players even tied the best record in the inter-school league.

Lu Chen was panting, he looked up and saw that he was ranked first, and he glanced at Ye Lin who was adjusting his breathing.

Ye Lin only ranked third in 50 meters, followed by Shen Yao.

Chase Lu was a little surprised, and beyond the surprise... more was emptiness.

Ye Lin breathed hard, he knew that he had tried his best, even if he did it again, he couldn't be faster than this time.

He raised his head, wiped away the water stains on his face, and swam to the shore.

"Shen Yao really played very well!" Xiao Bin nodded, "It's very neat, and it's worthwhile for Nancheng University to poach him."

After a few seconds, Xiao Bin didn't hear Ren Fei's response. He turned his face to the side and realized that Ren Fei was thoughtful and his expression was very cold.

"Teacher Ren, what's wrong?"

"I don't think Ye Lin is in shape... If he participates in the 100-meter final in this state, I'm afraid he will collapse."

Xiao Bin paused: "No...it can't be, right? No.3 is also very good!"

"No, no, no... This is the same as his 100-meter semi-final against Lu Chen, which is completely different."

When Ren Fei said this, Xiao Bin also became worried.

Ye Lin wore a bath towel and walked past Bai Jingwen.

"Ye Lin...are you alright?" Bai Jingwen clasped his arm.

"I want to be quiet for a while...leave me alone for a while."

Ye Lin raised his face, smiled faintly, and then walked into the dressing room.

He put on his clothes step by step, dried his hair, and kept his body warm. Then he found a quiet place, sat down, and covered his head with a bath towel.

He heard his breathing and his heartbeat, but he couldn't feel the enthusiasm and persistence that made his fingertips burn and wished he could push the water away with all his hair.

There were constant WeChat messages on the phone, and Luo Li's number was flashing on the screen, but Ye Lin didn't want to answer it.

At this time, Xia Zhi arrived at the hospital and ran to the ward where Chen Fanghua was.

Jiao Ting and Cen Qinghui stood by Chen Fanghua's side.

"Xia Zhi! Why are you here! Don't you have a competition?" Jiao Ting got up, and then looked at the way Cen Qingyu lowered her head and said nothing, and immediately understood, "Qinghui, I didn't tell you not to fight with me. Xia Zhi said?"

"How can I not say it! That's his own mother! If he finds out after the game, it's a minor matter to beat me up, but a major problem to break up with me!"

Xia Zhi took a deep breath and came to Chen Fanghua's hospital bed. Her head was covered with a bandage, and even though she was unconscious, her brows were still tightly frowned.

Xia Zhi gently smoothed the center of her brows, and her eyes immediately turned red.

"Your mother is fine, you trust me. It's just a concussion, the intracranial pressure is normal, and there is no intracranial hemorrhage... I will wake up in a while!"

Jiao Ting quickly comforted him.

"That's right, your mother just passed out, and she's cheering you on!" Cen Qinghui said.

Xia Zhi sat down, clasped Chen Fanghua's hand, and said softly, "Mom, I'm here..."

Chen Fanghua's eyelids trembled, and Xia Zhi could feel her fingers gradually grasping his hand.

"Mom? Mom? Did you hear me?"

"I heard it... I heard it... It's so noisy..." Chen Fanghua finally opened his eyes, and looked at Xia Zhi slowly, "Why are you here? Why don't you go to the competition!"

Chen Fanghua shook Xia Zhi's hand, but did not shake it off.

"You already know that you are injured. Since you can't play the game wholeheartedly, why not come and see you."

Chen Fanghua sighed, and smiled again: "Are you... are you making me angry, or are you making me happy?"

Qi Xiazhi gave up running for such an important final. Of course, he was happy that he was so important in his son's heart.

"Xia Zhi, look, Aunt Chen is fine! You should go back quickly! Maybe you can catch up with the 100-meter final!"

Xia Zhi looked at the time and knew in his heart that he couldn't make it to the 100-meter final, but at least he could make it to watch Ye Lin's race.

"Go back, go back... Go back quickly... When Mom finds out that you won the championship, I can jump out of this hospital bed immediately!"

When Chen Fanghua said this, Xia Zhi finally felt relieved.

"Well, I'll get you the champion, and you'll show me how to jump up from the hospital bed!"

"Go away! Brat!"

Xia Zhi left the hospital and rushed back to the swimming pool.

He took out his mobile phone and saw the broadcast of Pan Fanwan and the others. In the 50-meter freestyle final, Lu Chen was first, Shen Yao was second, and Ye Lin was third.

Xia Zhi touched the photo of Ye Lin that Pan had sent. He was wearing a bath towel and looked a little lonely with his eyes closed.

He knew he was waiting for him.

It's like the ruffian who already has Lele, can't bear to stay in that lonely place alone, even if he sinks to the bottom of the water and kills himself, he doesn't want to endure that kind of loneliness.

Xia Zhi called Ye Shen: "Uncle Ye, are you there? Could you please do me a favor?"

"Xiao Xia, you said, as long as I can do it, I will do it."

The women's 50-meter final is going on outside, followed by the women's 100-meter freestyle final.

At this time, Ye Lin's cell phone rang again, he turned his face and saw Xia Zhi's name.

The thoughts in my heart flooded my heart a hundred times.

Obviously this boy was still sleeping in my arms last night, but I don't know why I miss him so much.

"Xiazhi... is your mother okay?"

"He's fine. Ye Lin, where are you?"

"I found a quiet place to concentrate."

"Concentration?"

"That's right, it won't be so sad if the Concentrator doesn't miss you that much."

Ye Lin said it in a half-joking tone, but Xia Zhi knew how serious Ye Lin was when he said this.

"Come out and look at Pan Fun."

"What, what kind of banner did you ask them to pull up to encourage me? Or 'Xia Zhi Xia Zhi Water Trapeze'?"

Ye Lin got up, walked out of the aisle, came to the bright venue, and looked towards the auditorium occupied by the Q big cheerleaders.

Then, he was stunned.

Ye Shen and Tian Rui were both sitting there.

Just like when he participated in the children's swimming competition for the first time in elementary school, Ye Shen and Tian Rui sat together to watch him compete like this.

"From the preliminaries, to the semi-finals, to today's final, they have been watching you."

Xia Zhi's voice came from the phone.

"Ye Lin, you are not attached to anyone, and you don't really depend on me. You just..."

"Just what?" Ye Lin asked with a smile, but her eyes were blurred.

Both Ye Shen and Tian Rui were waving at him, their movements were a little jerky, as if they were extremely nervous because they were not sure whether their son would like to see them.

Ye Lin raised his hand and waved towards them, then Ye Shen and Tian Rui waved their arms even more vigorously, looking very excited, he faintly saw Tian Rui raising his hand to wipe away tears.

"You just care too much about me and treat me as everything. I am not everything to you, you are yourself. If it weren't for meeting you, maybe I was admitted to an ordinary university, and I couldn't participate in such a grand event like today In the competition, I can't fight against masters like Shen Yao or He Jinfeng again, and I can't meet an opponent like Lu Chen... I can't make myself as good as I am now."

"If you are not everything to me, then what do you think you are to me?" Ye Lin asked funny.

His mobile phone was taken away, Ye Lin turned his head and saw Xia Zhi right behind him.

It seemed that the light in the audience belonged to him alone, so bright that Ye Lin couldn't open his eyes, but he had to look at him greedily.

"I am your limit."

Everything that imprisoned Ye Lin and made him feel heavy and unable to break free, all shattered in that instant.

The 50-meter swimming pool extends infinitely to a wider world.

They are each other's limit, how can they be bound by this moment.

The radio is broadcasting that the men's 100-meter freestyle final is about to begin.

"Go, I'm with you."

Xia Zhi stretched out his fist and collided with Ye Lin's.

Ye Lin got on the starting platform again. He put down his swimming goggles, looked forward, and waited for the moment when he entered the water.

He jumped into the water, and the moment his fingers touched the surface of the water, he seemed to be connected with Xia Zhi.

Yes, water is their favorite field, and this piece of water is where they work hard.

If fate is the wings that grow on his back, he thinks that it is good for you, or that everything he has encountered has created the current pattern, then Xia Zhi gently but mercilessly uproots these wings, the more he is Swimming forward, the more layers are peeled off, revealing the most original self, like a hearty transformation.

In the 50 meters ahead, Ye Lin and Lu Chen were evenly matched. Ye Lin turned around smoothly and neatly, as if he wanted to melt himself into a part of the water.

Immediately afterwards, like a cannon fire resounding through the sky, Ye Ling stood out among countless waves, as if he wanted to break through the boundary between sea and sky, break through the barrier that imprisoned him, and run over all high waves and storms willfully and presumptuously, to reach his destination.

So strong that even everyone's eyes are thrown away.

"Ye Lin! Ye Lin! Ye Lin!" Ye Shen shouted his name from the stands.

Tian Rui clenched her fists and covered her heart.

They didn't even know that their son was so powerful and outstanding!

Lu Chen tried his best, he didn't know what made Ye Lin like a storm sweeping the swimming pool, he seemed to be caught in the eye of the storm, he seemed desperately chasing after him, but deep down he knew... this Opponents are hard to beat!

Xia Zhi remembered how excited his father was when he watched Ye Lin's game for the first time when he was young.

Ye Lin, at that time I wanted to be you.

And now, I want to have you.

The moment Ye Lin reached the finish line, the Q big cheerleaders shouted like crazy.

Ye Shen and Tian Rui held each other's hands and danced in the stands like children.

The moment Ye Lin got out of the water, she only wanted to see Xia Zhi.

Even though there were so many people and the world was so big, he still saw him at a glance.

Something burned in my heart, my blood was flowing, and even my fingertips were hot enough to satisfy my heart.

When the electronic cards showed their results, the whole swimming pool was boiling.

Ye Lin was number one. Not only did he beat Chase Lu, but he also broke the National Games record for this event.

The media seats exploded, which was a result that none of them expected.

"Oh my god... Ye Lin... Did Ye Lin swim the previous 50 meters for fun?"

"His 50-meter score is not bad! This... this is amazing! He must be going to participate in the World University Games!"

"This is the real return of the king!"

Xiao Bin looked at Ren Fei: "Teacher Ren..."

At this time, Ren Fei's eyes were wide open, shining with a different light, "This is what I want to see... the Ye Lin I want to see! The thing that I've been worrying about him for a long time... finally got it ...Finally there is..."

"what?"

"He has been swimming very restrained, as if...as if he knows he can only swim so fast! Every athlete wants to constantly break through, but he always hovers at that boundary, as if he is afraid of hitting himself ! But you look at today, you look at this game..."

Ren Fei was very excited, so excited that he was incoherent.

Xiao Bin knew that no matter what blocked Ye Lin, he had already broken out of the cocoon.

Ye Lin put on a bath towel and came in front of Xia Zhi.

"How is it?" Ye Lin asked him.

"You're so handsome." Xia Zhi hugged him tightly.

Ye Lin put all his strength on Xia Zhi's body, and Xia Zhi staggered two steps back under the pressure.

"If you think I'm handsome, then you must always think so."

"Don't worry, when you become a bad old man with dementia, I will also hang your gold medal around your neck and drag you out for a walk."

At this moment, Ye Lin only feels that taking a breath of air is cool, and the whole swimming pool seems to be several times bigger.

Everything opens up.

Just like his Xia Zhi, he tolerated everything about him frankly and openly.

"You seem to be running out of energy for swimming?" Xia Zhi hugged him, patting his back lightly like coaxing a child.

"what happened?"

"There are still 200 meters in the afternoon, don't lose to me."

"Don't worry, after the 200-meter final, I still have enough strength to make you happy."

"Ha ha."

At noon, we had lunch at the place organized by the competition committee. Coach Bai specially asked Ye Shen and Tian Rui to have dinner with them.

Ye Shen looked at Ye Lin, a person who was used to seeing big scenes unexpectedly had red eyes and didn't know what to say.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Ye Lin looked at Ye Shen, who was sitting upright, with a funny face.

"That... that's what I just want to say... After watching your game today, I feel that as a father, I don't even understand that you are hungry. You grow faster than me... You are so good, so good that Dad is watching you I feel in front of..."

"What do you think?"

"I feel that the greatest achievement in my life is to have a son like you."

Ye Lin froze for a moment, then smiled: "Then you have to thank my mother, she gave birth to me."

"Yes, yes, thanks to your mother."

At noon, they ate together like a family.

Both Ye Shen and Tian Rui competed to pick up vegetables for Ye Lin.

Ye Lin looked at Xia Zhi who was eating with Chen Jiarun and the others not far away, and the two smiled tacitly.

After lunch, when everyone was resting together, Ye Lin hugged Xia Zhi and said, "I think we can practice other sports."

"What? Medley?"

"Diving! What do you think of double diving?"

"Why don't you talk about diving into the ballet together?" Xia Zhi said angrily, and regretted it after saying it.

With Ye Lin's menstrual disorder, she might really want to do some underwater ballet, and she would get goosebumps just thinking about it.

After a whole noon rest, the men's 200m freestyle final kicked off.

When the contestants came out, the audience burst into thunderous applause, and everyone was looking forward to the birth of a new record.

Ren Fei let out a breath, his palms were sweaty.

"Teacher Ren, why are you nervous?"

"Of course I'm nervous... Isn't this competition the highest level in our youth swimming?"

Xiao Bin looked at Xia Zhi, yes, he is here, maybe there will be a new wave coming.

All the athletes took their positions, and the stadium full of shouts gradually fell silent.

The "beep—" that I have heard countless times fell on the brain meridian ethereally.

Xia Zhi jumped into the water and started his expedition.

In the first 50 meters, He Jinfeng took a strong lead, like an unstoppable chariot, smashing the waves to pieces, and seized the opportunity.

But he couldn't make a big gap with the others. After the first turn around, Xia Zhi and Ye Lin gradually overtook them, and Lu Chen overtook them again in the middle, but before he could turn around, Shen Yao chased after them again. up.

This game is like a tide in the sea, one wave after another, layer upon layer.

Turning around for the second time, Xia Zhi and Ye Lin seemed to be copies of each other, kicking off the wall, stretching their bodies, and moving forward, overtaking Lu Chen.

This competition has gradually become aggressive from a dark tide.

Chase Lu accelerated his speed and overtook them again.

But soon came the last turn, Xia Zhi and Ye Lin kicked off the wall beautifully again, as if the morning sun was gushing out from their bodies, they drove forward, every stroke seemed to push aside the torrent, like It's the bullets that left the barrel of the gun. As long as you watch their swimming, you will be marked indelibly by them from sight to mind.

"The last 25 meters!" Ren Fei couldn't help but stood up.

The audience was also extremely excited.

All the athletes entered the state of sprinting, and the blossoming water flowers were like epiphyllum blooming towards the sun, even if it was only for a moment, they were extremely enthusiastic!

Just when Chase Lu accelerated again, the speed of Ye Lin and Xia Zhi also increased suddenly.

Ye Lin's thinking is infinitely concentrated, he feels the existence of Xia Zhi, he is so closely connected with himself, he is no longer a lonely person, his Xia Zhi is like the wind that never forgets, bringing Surrounded by powerful strength and sincere blood, he landed gently, so that every end point became a vibrant beginning.

Xia Zhi held back that energy, every time he stroked and kicked he was more forceful than the last time, his heart was a hard rock, unbreakable by wind and rain, his musculoskeletal and precision Fusion is like a flower seemingly weak but stubborn and irreversible growing and blooming from the stubborn stone!

His body reached the end just as it was about to shatter.

The moment the water came out, the bright lights and the applauding audience all lost their color.

Only Ye Lin, who was looking at him, tore apart Xia Zhi's sky like a golden string, and Xia Zhi saw in his eyes that the majestic sea was still surging and immortal.

At that moment, the championship is not important anymore.

is really not important.

When the ranking was announced on the electronic version, Xia Zhi didn't even look up.

He just lifted the waterline, as if embracing all his youth and passion, and hugged Ye Lin.

"Not bad...you beat me..." Ye Lin's voice was still rough.

But with appreciation and pampering.

Only then did Xia Zhi raise his head and saw that he was the champion of this event, Ye Lin was in second, only [-] seconds behind, and Lu Chen was in third.

The q swimming team is going crazy.

"The duo of our Q University Swimming Team! They're amazing!"

"Xia Zhi! Ye Lin! Invincible! Invincible!"

Next is the final of the 200-meter breaststroke and the 200-meter butterfly.

Chen Jiarun bumped Luo Li with his elbow: "These two are too arrogant, they need to be dealt with."

"Well, it needs to be cured." Luo Li replied with arms folded.

But Ye Lin and Xia Zhi dominated the pool so strongly that no one could stop them. In the 500 meters on the second day, these two won the gold and silver medals again.When it came to the four-by-100-meter and four-by-200-meter relay, the two teamed up, together with Lin Xiaotian, Geng Le, Zhao Xiong, and the others, to secure the team gold medal.

This year's Q University swimming team is so beautiful that other schools' teeth sockets are about to be crushed.

After the closing ceremony on the last day of the competition, Ye Lin sent Ye Shen and Tian Rui to the international airport.

Ye Shen has a big business to deal with, and Tian Rui's youngest daughter has a fever, so she has to go back.

At the airport, seeing her parents parted ways, Ye Lin felt a little emotional.

At this time, his WeChat was trembling, it was from Ye Shen: I made an agreement with your mother, you still have a game in the future, we made an appointment to watch it together.

Tian Rui's WeChat also said: I have made an appointment with your dad, as long as there is your competition, we will come to cheer for you!

Ye Lin's eyes were hot.

That night, he and Xia Zhi sat on the steps of the dormitory door, smoking that thin, long and strong herbal cigarette.

"Although I know that they can't really make me watch every game, I still feel very happy. I am growing up, and they also have their own families. In fact, they can accompany me here, and I already feel very satisfied." Ye Lin raised her head and said.

"But I'm not. I'll be with you for a long, long time."

Ye Lin was stunned, he looked at the corners of Xia Zhi's mouth, and suddenly remembered that this was what Xia Zhi had said to him when he was outside the college entrance examination room.

"The inter-school league is over like this, and I suddenly feel a little empty in my heart." Xia Zhi looked up at the night sky, but unfortunately he didn't see any stars.

"What's the matter? Have you written your thesis? Can you handle your final exam? Are you sure there is nothing to pawn and retake this semester?" Ye Lin touched Xia Zhi with his knee.

"I used to have a very naive idea, that is, after the college entrance examination, there will be no more exams."

"now what?"

"We are always being tested." Xia Zhi heaved a long sigh.

"Well, there's another piece of news...although I haven't confirmed it yet, but what Lao Bai means is pretty much the same."

"what?"

"You, Jiarun and Boss Luo are going to participate in the World University Games."

"Really?" Xia Zhi, who had fallen backwards with his head in his arms, sat up instantly.

"Look... life is constantly fighting, and even after a national inter-school league is over, you can feel empty. Your level is really low."

"Your level is high. Your level is high. Don't touch me tonight."

Xia Zhi patted the dust behind him, turned around and went upstairs.

"I'm going to touch it, touch it tonight, touch you tomorrow night, touch you every day."

"You touch porcelain!"

When the spring blossomed in the second year, Dr. Chu's research base released the ruffians, Lele and the group they formed into the sea.

Xia Zhi and Ye Lin were also invited to see them off.

The sea breeze is moist and warm, and the horizon in the distance fits closely with the blue sea.

And Pipi and Lele wandered around in the sea, watching Xia Zhi on the boat who refused to leave for a long time.

Xia Zhi waved the back of his hand, his eyes were rarely moist and his nose was sore.

He really wanted to jump into the sea and cuddle them.

But he still chose to say goodbye to them.

Maybe there is always a price to pay for freedom, and wind and tsunamis have to be experienced, but these experiences are worth recalling.

"Ruffian—Lele—you guys have to be good! Be together all the time!"

Xia Zhi shouted loudly against the sea breeze.He will always remember them and miss them wherever they go.

Ruffian and Lele rubbed against each other, then jumped high, drawing two graceful arcs.

"Look, we still have to participate in that ten-kilometer open water swimming competition in the future." Ye Lin said.

"Do you think Pipi and Lele can find us?"

"Why do you think you can't? I can find ruffian every time, I just tell it."

There may be no permanent banquet in life, but there are also joyful reunions after a long absence.

Xia Zhi looked forward to it.

Ye Lin looked at Xia Zhi's side face, that was his favorite person.

He has the temperature that makes Ye Lin nostalgic, the flexible heart, the toughness of shooting stones and drinking feathers, and the determination to tear open the cracks and let the sun come in vigorously.

He is Ye Lin's Xia Zhi.

The sea is fierce, but you are gentle. gd1806102
