加拿大渥太华当地时间,2００1年10月5号晚上07:30，詹姆斯·乔伊斯的‘预防针’余音在耳。

In the hotel, the banquet hall where the Appreciation Dinner for the Canadian Figure Skating and National Championships is being held.With the cooperation of Johnny, An Yi dealt with one sponsor after another, and changed the method of rejection one after another.At [-]:[-], it was finally completely clean, and it was time to taste delicious food.

During the process, he did not forget to observe the three opponents a few months later, the top three men's singles of this All-Canada Championship, Johnny Wassenberg, Ribein Carter, and Brian Sa special.

In my heart, I constantly compare my technical strength with them, think about the strategy during the game, speculate about their technical difficulty and other possible opponents, and consider whether I should take risks in the game, but the stability is still not enough The new jump plus a heavy insurance.

Calculating the time, today is already the [-]th, and the grand prix will be held at the end of the month, and the finals will be held in mid-December. After a month of rest and preparation, the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City will arrive on February [-].

There is not much time left for him to prepare, and it is time to make a final decision.Just like Julian Parter exhausted his brain cells, still hesitating to revise the free skate program.

Thinking about this and that in his head, eating the last piece of shellfish on the dinner plate with a knife and fork, An Yi chatted with a few admirers who were lingering around him for a while. When Johnny looked over, he made a gesture of 'I'm leaving' and stood up.

A few seconds later, Tongtong, hurried footsteps followed him quickly, chasing after him.Johnny suddenly remembered that he was going to leave Canada to return to China on the plane tonight, and was so annoyed that he wanted to slap himself a few times in the trot, unable to understand how he could forget such an important thing.

damn it!

He didn't forget his friend's departure, and the next time we meet will be the Shura field of the Winter Olympics, so why didn't he cherish the time just now?

Ahhh!Dear Louis, why don't you leave tonight and rebook tomorrow's ticket?Me, me, I still have a lot to say to you.

One in the front and the other in the back, the two of them also dressed in formal attire rushed back to the room in silence to meet with An Zexian and Joyce. After going through some formalities in the hotel lobby, they took a taxi to the airport.

More than two hours, nearly 11:30 in the middle of the night, before An Yi and An Zexian boarded the plane, the two teams began to say goodbye.On the left are An Zexian and Joyce, and on the right are An Yi and Johnny.That is to say, the atmosphere of speaking and doing other things is completely different.

"Remember my words, the Grand Prix can be forfeited, and you can't participate in a single domestic competition. The Four Continents? Oh, which other first-line athletes do you think will participate in this year's Four Continents? By the way, there is one more thing, Please tell Hu, I have already..."

"Louis, I, I mean, I, I'm going to miss you."

A few meters to the right of the two adults, Johnny Wassenberg stood in front of An Yi, staring deeply at his friend for a while, his lips opened and closed, as if he didn't know where to start , Spit out such a sentence.

As for An Yi, looking back at him, observing him, as if waiting, as if giving the man in front of him a chance, he kept smiling silently, his 'passive' a little unbelievable.

On the other hand, Johnny, being looked at by An Yi like this, seemed to have been exposed again. His cheeks were hot, his heart was beating fast, and his voice was dry. He obviously wanted to take this opportunity to express his heart, but his strong self-esteem made him lose it. sound.

It wasn't until three or four minutes later that Joyce and An Zexian on the left had finished communicating, An Yi nodded to him, and when he was dragging his suitcase and was about to turn around, he suddenly took a few steps and stretched out his hands to press An Yi's shoulders On the road, staring at the boy who was once best friend in front of him and now has a good feeling in his heart, the eyes speak out.But he didn't realize that the voice he uttered was obviously intermittent and trembling, which fully expressed his mood at this moment.

"Lu, Louis, as I said, one day I will defeat you!"

"At that time, I have, I have something to tell you. I... oh, damn it! I mean, no matter what I say at that time, I hope you don't refuse it first, and I hope you think about it seriously!"

Panicked and incoherent, all the tension in the past 17 years is not as strong as the current Johnny Wassenberg, and he broke out in a few short sentences.

On the other side, the two men who also heard Johnny's 'request' looked at each other.An Zexian's helplessness, and Joyce's wry smile, unexpectedly seemed to have already understood everything.

As another person involved, An Yi did not miss the reactions of both parties. He was surprised by his father's plainness and felt sorry for Johnny.

After beating me, there is one thing to tell me, right?

Johnny, Johnny, you've got to work harder.

I will never make fun of any game in my career just to accommodate you.

"Okay, I'll wait."

Raising his right hand to cover the back of Johnny's hand, An Yi restrained his smile and looked serious, nodded to his friend who was already a man in front of him, greeted An Zexian, dragged his suitcase and turned around and walked towards the security checkpoint.

Behind them, after watching them leave, James Joyce walked up to Johnny, hugged this boy who was in love with love, struggling with masculine dignity, and heaved a sigh of relief.

With a little dejection in his heart, he thought strangely that no matter whether his two disciples could get together in the future, his original idea of ​​continuing to be the head coach of their children seemed doomed to fail.Well, it doesn't seem right. Now that technology is so advanced, there may be other ways to remedy it.

On the 20th and [-]th, from Canada to China, on the [-]th, NO.[-], half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

On the 25th, the 2/1 season ISU Grand Prix sub-station officially started. The first American station was held on time. After returning to China, An Yi has fully adjusted his competitive state and continued to train at the usual pace. Life.

From November 1st to [-]th, he returned to Canada again and rushed to Mississauga, participated in the second race, practiced the program and won the first race championship, and then returned to China to adjust the problems found in the race. After waiting for a month, I arrived in Sapporo, Japan on December [-]th, and participated in my second race. With No.[-] results in the two races, I made it to the top ten. The isu grand prix finals held in moscow, russia at the end of february.

As a result, although he continued his undefeated legend, it also caused him some troubles.As for the reason, it was still his biggest difficulty this season—the Chinese-style free skating program, which was difficult to deliver, constantly modified, and not released yet.

In the No. [-] training hall of the Chinese national figure skating team, An Zexian stood on the edge of the ice rink and made training records, Julian Pat gave on-site guidance, An Yi galloped on the ice with music, and practiced after the ISU Grand Prix. the following short program.

The music followed, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to Julian's request. His expression was sad and sad during skating. The strength of each kick was very light, but with the help of blade skills, the skating speed was very fast.There is a sense of determination in every gesture, and the entire ice rink is soaked with his artistic expression.

Jumping, spinning, stepping, skating, two minutes and 50 seconds, when the ice rink music stopped abruptly, he also stopped skating, kept the last movement and paused for five seconds, exhaled and looked towards the sidelines, reviewing the situation Julian Patt of the show.

When I noticed this paranoid artist who was difficult to deal with, and finally nodded in approval of this program, I finally let go of half of my heart.the other half?Look, look, look, isn't this coming soon? !

"That's all for the short program."

Uncompromising in the face of his own work, Julian Pater nodded and passed the short program of An Yi's skating, looked down at the action script placed on the top of the protective wall, and continued.

"Dear boss, do you still have the strength? The next step is free skating. Although I still can't understand your persistence, like you, I hope to use this program to silence all doubters. Oiserie, China What about the wind? Powerful and graceful artist Julian Pater is fearless."
