A few days after He Qinian returned to school, he received a big announcement—the national team asked the school's dignitaries.

Before returning to school, Sheng Xinghe predicted that within a month, the coach of the national team would contact his school, because he was asked to leave by the national team after jumping a height of 2 meters.

Everything was expected, but I didn't expect good things to come so quickly.

Director Sun pushed the thick glasses and said, "Why don't you discuss it with your family members first to see if they agree. If they agree, the school will transfer your information."

He Qinian was so excited that tears filled his eyes: "You don't need to ask! They all agree!"

"Joining the national team is not a trivial matter." Director Sun said.

He Qinian sighed, "Don't worry, my family really agrees. We have discussed it before. What documents are needed to transfer to the national team? I will prepare it now!"

Director Sun: "Look, you're in a hurry."

He Qinian chuckled: "There should be dormitories over there, right? Do the high jump team all live together?"

"The dormitories are all allocated, one room per person, but I don't know if I live in the same building as the high jump team," Director Sun asked sensitively, "Who are you looking for?"

He Qinian said generously: "Look for Coach Sheng. I know him there. If we can live together, we can take care of each other."

Director Sun nodded with a smile: "Then I wish you all good grades."

He Qinian: "I promise to do my best to win honor for the school."

At the same time, in the dormitory building of the track and field base, someone sneezed several times.

"Are you catching a cold?" Lin Jianzhou sat on the edge of the bed, took out several kinesio effects from the box and cut them into different lengths, "The temperature difference is too big these days, you should be careful when you go out, the Diamond League is coming soon, once you catch a cold The whole person is in a bad state.”

Sheng Xinghe said in his heart that if he doesn't have a cold, he is not in a good state. He has been troubled by leg injuries this time, and he can't even complete his daily training in full.

There are different degrees of tingling in the knees and heels. After practicing too much, it feels like stepping on an acupressure board. The pain is unspeakable. The pain can only be relieved by medicine and physical therapy massage.

The weather is not good today, the sky outside the window is gray, the clouds are very thick, it doesn't look like it will rain, but there is no sunshine.

Sheng Xinghe hates this kind of weather, even more than rainy days. He likes sunshine and hot racing tracks.

"coach."

"Ok?"

"Forget it." Sheng Xinghe fell down on the bed and sighed.

"Speak out if you have something to say, don't be bored, maybe I can solve your confusion for you." Lin Jianzhou glanced at him.

"At what age did you retire?" Sheng Xinghe asked.

"29."

"Why, injured or?"

"There are many factors. First of all, the financial burden at home is very heavy. We couldn't get a lot of money for the game. In addition, we couldn't overcome the psychological problems. I am 1 meters, the shortest one in the team, and I don't even have a coach. Take care of me." Lin Jianzhou said.

"Then have you ever regretted it?" Sheng Xinghe asked again.

Lin Jianzhou put down the things in his hand, and smiled helplessly: "Actually, the biggest regret in my life is that I didn't fight to the death. Holm can jump out of the Olympic champion at 1 meters. I would rather believe what others said at that time. I don't believe in myself either."

Sheng Xinghe's expression was in a trance: "But after practicing for a long time, you will know that not everyone is Holm, yearning is yearning, and reality is reality."

"No one knows yourself and what you want better than you."

Lin Jianzhou paused and said, "Of course, if I didn't get any results after a few more years of blogging, I probably should regret it now. I knew I shouldn't practice any sports. People are like this, and they will never be satisfied. Always feel that another possibility is better, because you don't have it."

Sheng Xinghe was dumbfounded.

Now he can't tell why he stayed on this road. According to economics, it is probably because the sunk cost has been invested too much, and he dare not and can't give up easily.

Recently, he often thinks that ten years ago, when there was nothing, every height he jumped was a big event worth celebrating. There are still many photos in the space. Those photos are not high-resolution, but they all record the state of mind at that time.

The more you get along the way, the harder it is to be satisfied, and the less happy you are.

He needs a bigger breakthrough, but his body seems to be warning him, it's almost done, you're at this level.

As time went by, his heart became more uncertain and fearful.

A video frame popped up, disrupting his thoughts.

He Qinian's profile picture was in the center of the screen, and the coach was on the side. Sheng Xinghe didn't know whether he should take it or not.

Lin Jianzhou glanced at it, the note was sticky, and a smile from someone who came over appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Girlfriend?"

"No, no," Sheng Xinghe was taken aback by his thought, "It's He Qinian."

"Then pick it up quickly," Lin Jianzhou patted the mattress, "You lie on your stomach, and I'll stick it on your back."

"Thank you." After Sheng Xinghe got down on the ground, he clicked on the connection, and a long-lost Samoyed smile appeared in the center of the screen.

In the few days since He Qinian went back, he has pushed a neat cut, looking full of energy. The weather in City B is very nice. He Qinian is only wearing a beige sweater with an embroidered heart on his chest. This heart is composed of rainbow colors and divides the heart into seven parts.

He suddenly thought of a rainbow that he and He Qinian saw while walking across the road not long ago. At that time, He Qinian said that the rainbow represents hope, and seeing a rainbow will bring good luck.

Sheng Xinghe had only seen a rainbow once in his life, so he said it's no wonder his luck has been bad.

At that time, He Qinian said, from now on, I will wear a rainbow on my body, and when you see me, you will see the rainbow at that time.

Only now did he realize that He Qinian was not joking.

"Brother! I have some good news for you. Guess what it is." He Qinian's face was full of vitality.

Sheng Xinghe said without hesitation: "I'm going to join the national team."

"How do you know?" He Qinian was taken aback, "You're so smart."

"What else can there be other than this." Sheng Xinghe smiled, "When will you come over, I'll see if I have time to pick you up."

"I'm not sure yet. I just filled out some application materials, and Director Sun said it will be soon." He Qi said happily, walking with excitement, and the excitement was transmitted to Sheng Xinghe through wireless transmission, sweeping away everything haze.

When I think of having someone to accompany me right away, no matter how painful the day is, it will not be so difficult.

Sheng Xinghe was looking forward to the day when He Qinian arrived at the track and field team, and would send a message every night to confirm the time.

Video chatting became their nightly rite of passage.

At first, I chatted until early in the morning and hung up the phone reluctantly. Later, I simply connected the charger, put the phone by the pillow, and fell asleep listening to the sound of the other party's breathing.

Of course, during this time, He Qinian also unlocked a new skill called phonesex, and specially changed into another low-pitched voice, imitating the tone of a policeman and ordering him to take off his pants.

Sao is really Sao.

I was very excited to play at night, but I feel very ashamed in retrospect during the day.

Sheng Xinghe thinks that He Qinian should be a voice actor in radio dramas, so that he can seamlessly switch between his voice and his voice, but he feels uncomfortable when he thinks that others will also listen to his voice.

It's better to enjoy it secretly by yourself.

April, when the grass grows and the warblers fly, has passed, and the temperature has finally picked up.

The highest temperature during the day is 22°C and the lowest temperature at night is 12°C.

Sheng Xinghe sat in the waiting hall, flipping through the weather forecast boredly. It also suggested that everyone bring a coat when traveling at night.

His eyes were suddenly covered by warm palms, he smiled, and raised his hand to touch the bead on He Qinian's wrist bone.

"Guess who I am?"

"Officer He."

Officer He is the number one person who appears most often in phonesex, with a deep and hoarse voice. Sheng Xinghe has always admired He Qinian's good voice, which can be in between the voice of a teenager, the voice of Kong Shao, and the old smoker in his 30s Jump repeatedly.

He Qinian hugged him from behind, releasing full of emotion: "I miss you so much—" The ending sound was very long, soft like a baby.

"I miss you too," Sheng Xinghe patted the back of his hand, before the eyes of passers-by gathered, he got up and said, "Let's go, the leader is still waiting in the car."

"I thought you were the only one who came to pick me up." He Qinian curled his lips.

"He was the one who picked it up, but I forced myself to follow." Sheng Xinghe explained.

He Qinian chuckled, his mood surging.

The scenery in the rearview mirror is constantly changing, like a long movie shot, He Qinian only has one feeling, that is, he is one step closer to his dream and his lover.

Chatting along the way, I didn't feel that the time passed so fast. When He Qinian raised his hand to check the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

It took more than two hours to drive.

The car slowly drove into the training base.

He Qinian looked out the window, his mouth unconsciously became O-shaped.

Everything in front of him shocked, surprised, and amazed him.

It has the largest indoor track and field venue in Asia, and the top athletes in the country gather here.

He Qinian had only watched it in the video before, and thought it was a little bigger than the provincial team, but after he actually walked in, he realized that not only is the venue large and there are many equipment, but the whole sports atmosphere is very different.

The equipment here looks very advanced. He has never even seen many of them, and he doesn’t know how to use them. The coach basically doesn’t need to speak. Rushing to learn.

Eye-catching and big red banners are hung on the walls of each venue-resolutely resist doping and take clean gold medals.

Strengthen the sense of mission, responsibility, and honor, and create a national team that can fight well and have a good style of work.

These slogans make the whole venue look solemn and sacred.

In addition to the track and field, there are shooting, fencing, swimming and other venues, and there are even spas and rehabilitation training pools specially used for relaxation. There are also bus stops in the middle of each gymnasium.

The dormitory is set up next to the base, similar to the configuration of a single apartment building, each with about [-] floors.

He Qinian and Sheng Xinghe are both on the sixth floor of the third building, one at 607 and one at 609, separated by Qin Hexuan.

But this has no effect on He Qinian, as long as he is in a team, even if there are 1000 Qin Hexuan separated, he can still reach Sheng Xinghe's room.

There is not much furniture in the bedroom, a single bed, a TV cabinet, a wardrobe, and a writing desk. The bathroom is so small that you can only stand in the shower.The team leader said that you can add some daily necessities by yourself, and there is a supermarket near the dormitory.

After familiarizing himself with the dormitory environment, He Qinian went to the track and field center under the leadership of his coach to receive some new equipment.

Including spikes, sportswear, backpacks and duffel bags, etc., are custom-made for athletes.

No matter what season it is, the uniforms of the national track and field team are the colors of the national flag, bright and dazzling, with a sacred brilliance.

Apart from the shoes, everything is stamped with the national team's unique logo.

A.

Chinese team.

As if he had reached the pinnacle of his life, He Qinian was a little excited, so he put his coat on on the spot and showed it to everyone: "Look! Does the big red one match me well!"

Sheng Xinghe laughed at him from the side: "Didn't you not like bright red ones before? You always thought the school uniforms were ugly. I haven't seen you wear them a few times."

"That can't be the same," He Qinian touched his clothes like an antique collector seeing Bao, "This is the national team."

Just like a new book is always accompanied by a smell of ink when it is just opened, the brand-new team uniform also has a little smell of the fabric itself.

This will be the taste that He Qi Nian will never forget.

The backpack and duffel bag are pure black, uniformly custom-made, and the style and workmanship are quite general and satisfactory, but there is a bright red Chinese flag embroidered on it, and his name is embroidered under the flag.

The tip of He Qinian's nose was sour, and the sockets of his eyes gradually became hot and humid.

He suddenly thought of a sentence that Sheng Xinghe said a long time ago - when you enter the national team, you represent China.

Fine stitches, rigorous and solemn, unique in the world.

This is the dream and the future, something that no amount of money can buy.

The national track and field team has very few high jumpers and very few coaches.Although some athletes are under the name of the national team, they don't want to come to city A to live. They stay in the provincial team for training. They only gather together in international competitions such as the Diamond League, World Championships, and the Olympics. There are also some star athletes training abroad.

He Qinian followed Lin Jianzhou, which means that he stepped into Sheng Xinghe's small world as he wished.

Several members of the high jump team and Lin Jianzhou held a simple welcome ceremony for He Qinian at the cafeteria of the base.

Four dishes and one soup, plus a fruit.

Although there is no explicit order in the team to prohibit everyone from eating outside, but it is not a last resort, basically no one will eat outside food.

Not safe.

Doping testing is becoming stricter every year, and there are so many lessons learned from the past. A ban will take at least one or two years, and no one dares to take risks.

There were six people at the welcome party, and Sheng Xinghe sat opposite He Qinian.

Lin Jianzhou poured some juice for He Qinian: "The ceremony is a bit crude, don't mind, everyone welcomes you to join."

He Qinian raised the disposable paper cup and respectfully touched the seniors. When he reached Sheng Xinghe's side, he raised his eyes and smiled: "I hope senior brother can take care of you in the future."

Sheng Xinghe nodded brightly, replaced the wine with fruit juice, and finished a whole glass of orange juice, while typing quietly with his fingers on the keyboard.

[Sheng Xinghe: How do you want me to take care of you? Do you want to drink more milk? 】
