Chapter 37 Before the Game

Ever since he met Sailin, Gu Xuyang has been diligently running to the gymnasium. He will sit with Celine every time he competes and explain to her the strengths and weaknesses of the players on the field and the martial arts styles. Celine said it was an eye-opener .She seemed to be particularly interested in swordsmanship, and when she met a swordsman, she would grab Gu Xuyang and ask them non-stop.

Gu Xuyang is different from those men who have a half-knowledge of martial arts and talk about it and give advice. He has real talents and learning, and his judgment on the strength of the players on the field is almost correct every time.Of course, when it was Gu Xiaofei's turn to come on stage, Gu Xuyang was going to blow up the hype no matter what, and Celine even laughed at him: "Did that boy pay you for advertising? Otherwise, why would you flatter him so much?"

Celine is different from the kind of audience who only know how to cater to the topic blindly. She can often ask sharp questions, and even Gu Xuyang doesn't know how to answer some questions.

Gu Xuyang was really surprised that a foreigner had such exquisite insights and strong curiosity about martial arts.At first he always felt constrained around Celine and couldn't let go of his words, but the more they chatted, the more speculative they felt, and the uneasiness was gradually replaced by reluctance.When the game is over and the two part ways outside the gymnasium, Gu Xuyang always looks forward to the next meeting.

Celine always smiled when she was with him, but the interpreter next to her didn't look so happy.His name is Fan Shang, and he is both a translator and Celine's assistant.Every time Gu Xuyang sits next to Celine, his assistant Fan Shang will put on a cold face, even if the P is turned into an emoji, there is no sense of disobedience.

Gu Xuyang felt that he had an opinion on him, but what opinion could an assistant have?Can an assistant control who his boss associates with?Control the world, control the boss?

Once Celine went to the bathroom, as soon as she left, Fan Shang moved to Gu Xuyang's back, shaking his legs impatiently, looking very anxious.

"Smart people don't say dark words, what is the relationship between you and Celine?"

Gu Xuyang wanted to say that we have nothing to do with each other, but Fan Shang's tone was strong, as if the feudal patriarch in the old society wanted to accuse the children of free love, Gu Xuyang couldn't help but sneer: "We are a legitimate relationship between men and women! Do you have an opinion? ?"

An emoji automatically appeared in his mind: a man and a woman are a natural match, so it's your turn to object, a monster?

Fan Shang gave Gu Xuyang a sympathetic look: "It seems that you don't know anything. Listen to my advice, if you just want to have an affair, you'd better stay away from Celine, otherwise..." He wanted to speak but then stopped.

"Otherwise what? Tell me clearly! Does Celine have a boyfriend? Or is she already married? Or... Could it be..." Gu Xuyang was shocked, "Do you like Celine?"

"Where did you see that I like Celine?!"

"If you don't mean that to Celine, why do you care who she associates with? Can you control it?"

Working under such a beautiful boss as Celine, it is inevitable that there will be dissatisfaction, but Fan Shang is speechless, it seems that he really does not have any disrespectful thoughts towards Celine.Why?Could it be... Could it be that Fan Shang is gay?ah!That makes sense!Gay guys don't like women, that's why Fan Shang is indifferent to Celine!

Gu Xuyang was once again impressed by his superb reasoning ability.

But why does Fan Shang, who is gay, object to their being together?Could it be... Could it be that Fan Shang is not interested in Celine, but him?Gu Xuyang's chrysanthemum tightened immediately.Just about to ask, Celine came back.

"What are you guys talking about? You look so happy, can I join too?" She inserted between Gu Xuyang and Fan Shang with a smile.

"Talking about the game." Fan Shang lied without changing his expression.

"Ah, my dear Fan Shang! I didn't expect you to be interested in the competition! I thought you didn't like Chinese Kung Fu!" Gu Xuyang didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Celine's smile was a little dangerous.

"I just want to see if I can make money. Someone on the Internet opened a bet."

"I hope that one day I can compensate you myself." Celine smiled, but the words that came out of her mouth were chilling.

She sat down beside Gu Xuyang.Across Celine, Fan Shang gave Gu Xuyang a look of "you understand": The conversation just now is a secret between us, don't tell Celine!

It's okay, I won't say it.Gu Xuyang thought sympathetically.I heard that there are many homophobes in foreign countries, so I will keep it a secret for you for the time being!

If Fan Shang knew what he was thinking at this moment, he would probably be arrested for assaulting the police.

***

Gu Xiaofei was in full swing in the competition, making great strides all the way, and successfully reached the group finals.And his opponent is none other than Qi Chong, the young master of the Qi family who had stern words in the hotel to fight him.

On the eve of the competition, Gu Xiaofei was so nervous that he couldn't sleep, so he ran to the rooftop alone to blow the air.

Unexpectedly, Qi Chong also reached the final.He agreed to fight with Qi Chong, it was only because of impulsiveness, who let Qi Chong hit Xiao Xuechen with his mouth, Gu Xiaofei wished he could vent his anger on Xiao Xuechen's behalf.

But he always thought that he and Qi Chong would be eliminated early, but he didn't expect that both of them would persevere to the end... The gold content of this amateur competition is not very good. People like him who have never learned martial arts can make it to the finals. How much water is there?

It is also possible that he was lucky and the opponents he encountered were all weak.Since Qi Chong was able to fight to the end, it meant that he was either very lucky or had real kung fu.No matter who it is, Qi Chong is an opponent that should not be underestimated.

Fang Xinhe took pictures of Qi Chong's matches before, and Gu Xiaofei borrowed his phone to watch them.Qi Chong's eyebrow-level stick is fierce, fast, and flexible, and the opponent often falls down after a few rounds.Confronting him, Gu Xiaofei has no idea at all.

"Xiao Fei? You still up so late?" Xiao Xuechen's voice came from behind.

Gu Xiaofei turned his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I can't sleep, I'm nervous. Mr. Fang said that my mental quality is not good, and it seems that I really can't. Why don't you sleep?"

"I got up in the middle of the night to check on you and found that you were not in bed."

Xiao Xuechen sat cross-legged beside him.

Gu Xiaofei wanted to ask you why you didn't sleep in the middle of the night and got up to watch me?But after thinking about it, Xiao Daxia really cared about him!In the past, the dean's grandmother often patrolled at night to see if the children were sleeping well, and would tuck the quilts for children who slept badly, or tell stories and sing songs to children who couldn't sleep.

Xiao Daxia cares about me, just like the dean's grandmother cares about the children!Gu Xiaofei suddenly realized.

"I'm worried about tomorrow's game...Qi Chong must be difficult."

Xiao Xuechen wanted to say don't worry, with your skills, even ten Qi Chong would not be enough to fight, but it is not easy to tell the truth directly, so he could only comfort him and said: "It doesn't matter if you lose to Qi Chong, he is the second-generation rich young master." Since childhood, various coaches have been invited to instruct martial arts. It is incomparable with ordinary self-taught people, and it is not ashamed to lose to him. Just relax and play freely."

Gu Xiaofei sighed and hugged his knees.Xiao Daxia put it lightly, if everyone can relax their minds, there will be no nervous stage fright people!He has already reached the finals, even though he has always had no desires, but he still has a little competitive spirit after all!He doesn't want to lose to that arrogant rich second generation!

His uneasy expression aroused Xiao Xuechen's concern. "You have watched Qi Chong's matches a few times. Who do you think is faster, his stick technique or my sword technique?"

Without hesitation, Gu Xiaofei said, "Of course your swordsmanship is faster!"

"Then what are you afraid of?"

Gu Xiaofei slapped his thigh, what Xiao Xuechen said was true!He can even follow such a fast impermanent swordsmanship, so he is afraid that Qi Chong's eyebrow-level stick will fail?

"Hearing what you said, I suddenly feel so confident! Tomorrow I will definitely make him look good!" Gu Xiaofei jumped up, ran a few steps, stopped, and turned around shyly, "Hero Xiao, that, can you come tomorrow too?" Watch the game?"

"Didn't you say you wouldn't let me go for fear of embarrassment?" Xiao Xuechen turned his head and asked.

"It's the finals, just this one time, I'm not afraid of losing face. And if you're here..." Gu Xiaofei tugged at the corner of his clothes, "I'll be more confident!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Xuechen to answer, he ran back to the house like flying.

Even if he didn't say anything, Xiao Xuechen would go.If Gu Xiaofei knew that every time he played these days, he would sneak away to watch the match against the agreement, would he be happy or angry?Xiao Xuechen imagined that the young man turned from embarrassment into anger like a disturbed little beast, and felt that he should be a little more shy.

Gu Xiaofei has deep internal strength and excellent lightness skills. The other moves in the No.18 National Broadcasting Gymnastics for Middle School Students are also quite strong, but he lacks on-the-spot experience. Once he encounters experienced veterans, he may be at a disadvantage.The players in the amateur group are basically rookies like him, and everyone has the same experience, so it is difficult to expose Gu Xiaofei's weaknesses, but what about the future?When he advances to the regional preliminaries, his opponent will be the top players in the entire competition area. How far can his radio gymnastics allow him to go?

Xiao Xuechen couldn't help feeling worried.Strange, he cares more about Gu Xiaofei than his own game.What's wrong with him?

***

The group finals were scheduled for May 5st, which happened to be the Labor Day holiday. There were a lot of spectators who came to watch the game. It was hard to find a ticket in the stadium, and the front row seats were even priced high by scalpers.

Fang Xinhe showed great kindness: "It's not easy for Xiaofei to reach the final, Xiaoqi, I'll give you a day off, let's watch Xiaofei's match together!"

Xiaoqi was so happy that she danced and prepared a food basket full of snacks, fruit and sushi sandwiches on the day of the competition.Fang Xinhe flipped through her food basket and said, "Are you a primary school student on a spring outing? You also brought your own lunch?"

"Boss, how can you say the word 'bento' casually! You are so clumsy, what if Xiaofei gets a bento! Don't say unlucky things today!"

"You don't say 'Bento Bento' non-stop! If you don't say 'Bento' then what should I say?"

"Well, let's call it 'the source of obesity'!"

Fang Xinhe felt that the next time Xiaoqi went to the staff for a physical examination, she should take a CT scan of her brain to see if there was any abnormality in her brain circuit.

The boss and employees of the cat cafe are not there, so who will take care of the cats becomes a problem.Fang Xinhe originally wanted to ask Shi Mantao, but Shi Mantao also wanted to go to the game, so he had to entrust all of them to a nearby pet store. Anyway, it was only one day, so there should be nothing wrong.

The cat and coffee trio drove to the stadium with Xiao Xuechen.Since it was the final of the amateur group, the media in Yinghai City also paid close attention to it. Different from the cold reception they received in the previous competition, several groups of reporters came to the final, and cameras were set up inside and outside the hall.

Gu Xiaofei trembled when he saw the camera. Unlike some people who like to show off in front of the camera, he is the kind of person who is ashamed to be on camera. When he sees the camera, he wants to cover his face and run away.Seeing this, Fang Xinhe opened the umbrella he was carrying to cover Gu Xiaofei, and walked into the gymnasium from the VIP entrance with his arms around his shoulders.

As a player who survived to the finals, Gu Xiaofei has his own dedicated lounge.Fang Xinhe went in with Gu Xiaofei on the pretext that he was the coach, and Xiao Xuechen and Xiaoqi were driven into the auditorium by him.

In the corridor where the lounge is located, Gu Xiaofei bumped into Qi Chong unexpectedly.

Qi Chong is dressed in a yellow bunt today, which is the costume of a Shaolin monk.Taking off his fashionable attire of a dandy, he actually looked a bit clear and handsome.

He glared at Gu Xiaofei, and grinned: "You are lucky enough to make it to the finals, but no matter how lucky you are, it will be the end if you meet me! I will show you how to write the word 'strength' today." !"

"I have received nine years of compulsory education, how could I not know how to write the word 'strength'? Don't you know?" Gu Xiaofei said and looked at Qi Chong sympathetically, "You must have stayed abroad for too long, I even forgot how to write Chinese characters. How about I buy a "Modern Chinese Dictionary" for you before the competition is over?"

Qi Chong was so angry that his face turned green, but he calmed down quickly, thinking that Gu Xiaofei was provoking him on purpose, he couldn't be fooled by such a childish trick.

"No need! Keep it for yourself!"
