Swimmer of Rebirth

On the night of Ye Shuwen's return, Liu Yang and the others asked for leave to go out to celebrate. Naturally, they drank a little wine to meet the occasion. Liu Yang made a rule before ordering the wine. He and Ye Shuwen had a bottle of beer. , just don't get yourself drunk.

The three of them repeated the topics discussed in the afternoon, Zhang Weijia patted Liu Yang on the shoulder and told him to cheer him up when he heard the news that Liu Yang might go abroad up.

Zhang Weijia is only 17 years old, not yet old enough, but everyone knows that although the star athletes did not participate in this ranking competition, the ranking of the adult group is not accurate, but Liu Yang is the first in the overall score of the youth group after all. He and Xu Han have never won this ranking before. Once they go abroad this time, their results will definitely improve by leaps and bounds, and they should not be underestimated when they step into the adult group in the future.

In another year, everyone will really stand on the same starting line to compete, and the competition will be even more fierce by then.

When I went back in the evening, the doorman told Liu Yang that Yao Ye had called three times. Liu Yang listened and didn't know what it was like. After saying yes, he put his arms around Ye Shuwen's shoulder.

Ye Shuwen asked him why he didn't reply.

Liu Yang used the time too late to call tomorrow to explain.

But when he was really lying on the bed, his heart was swaying from side to side. Yao Ye's mind was guessed horizontally and vertically, but he didn't understand what Yao Ye meant by calling at this time.

Did he figure it out?Or did you know that he was going abroad, so you called to congratulate him?And will he return the call?After all, if there was no important matter, how could Yao Ye call three times in a row.

Liu Yang thought about it for a while, and finally decided to call back after 11 o'clock. When he went out, he said hello to the doorman uncle, saying that there was something urgent to tell his family, and asked him to close the door later.

At the end of April, it was still a bit cold, Liu Yang stood in the cold wind and called Yao Ye's dormitory.

Almost a second after it rang, the other end was picked up.

"Liu Yang?" Yao Ye called out affirmatively.

"En." Liu Yang responded, and after hearing this voice again after half a year, his heart trembled, and he suddenly felt flustered.

"Just came back?" Yao Ye asked him.

Liu Yang hummed, it can't be said that he came back a long time ago, he has been thinking about whether to return your call in the dormitory.

There was a pause on the phone, "It's past 11 o'clock, so late?" Yao Ye said something, feeling unhappy, but didn't ask him why he came back so late.

Liu Yang felt guilty and didn't want to entangle in this topic anymore, so he asked directly, "I heard that you called a few times tonight, is there something wrong?"

"Did Ye Shuwen come back today? Have you seen Mr. Power?" Yao Ye asked with certainty.

"Coach Luo told you?" Liu Yang asked him, thinking that the relationship between their uncle and nephew seems to have always been very good, and they are often in contact, so they are very sure of the question.

"Well, congratulate Ye Shuwen for me, and... that... you're going to go abroad with Mr. Power, right?" Yao Ye said the first half of the sentence very easily, but for some reason, the latter seemed very cramped.

Liu Yang pondered for a while. He and Ball will study abroad for at most two months. After all, he will come back to participate in the Youth Games. Yao Ye should also be very clear. So what is he fussing about?

Probably because Liu Yang was silent for too long, Young Master Yao waited for a while, and then simply opened his mouth again, "Are you going?"

"Yes, how can we not take such a good opportunity." Liu Yang replied simply, no matter what Yao Ye was struggling with, he would know the answer sooner or later.

"Is that why you rejected the invitation of the national team?" Yao Ye asked.

"Well, I decided to go in after participating in the World Youth Championship."

Yao Ye chuckled, "Okay, you're good now, and you're still picking and choosing. I heard that your results in this ranking competition are very good, so don't be too proud."

Liu Yang pretended to be disdainful and snorted, "I'm proud of this achievement? No matter what, I have to be number one in the world."

"Well, if you can really keep this heart, maybe I'm really old, and I don't have as much ambition as you."

"Okay, you old man is the seed player of the Asian Games, so let's leave it here and scold me. Hey, speaking of it, the Asian Games are about to start, are you training now?"

"Fortunately, there are still five months to go. Now I focus on daily training, and usually it is the last three months of intensive training, so I..." Yao Ye paused when he said this, and the pause was very short Before Liu Yang could react, he pretended to be relaxed and continued, "I may go abroad with you. Mr. Ball is also my foreign teacher. His coaching skills are very good. I also hope to take this opportunity to improve myself. .”

Yao Ye spoke quickly, and Liu Yang yelled out in surprise when he finished speaking, he blushed, and was suddenly happy, "That's great, I'm still worrying about what to do when I go abroad alone, the place of life is not good. Familiar, but I don’t understand the language, haha, I really didn’t expect you to be there, please take care of me, I must take care of you a lot.”

Liu Yang said a lot, and Yao Ye seemed to be infected and laughed out loud, "It should be about two months to go abroad this time, you should pack up your things in these two days, and you'd better take your camera with you. I’ll take you around when you’re here, and don’t worry about the passport, your coach Luo has used the reason of academic exchange to help you apply for it a long time ago.”

"Eh!? Why didn't I know?" Liu Yang was surprised, and it was the first time he remembered that there was such a thing as a passport.

"Everything waits for you to think about it. Then you can't leave the country. The Provincial Sports Center actually has a lot of places to go abroad every year. Coupled with the reason for going abroad for competitions, it is not troublesome to handle."

Passport, Liu Yang blinked and smirked. In his previous life, he had maintained his identity as a poor and lower-middle peasant. Let alone a passport, he had never even seen a Hong Kong and Macau Exit Pass. Liu Yang was excited when he thought that his name would be filled in that little book. The goosebumps came out layer by layer.

Yao Ye naturally didn't know the chicken blood in Liu Yang's head, so he said worriedly, "You're still trying to catch up on everyday English, at least you have to learn how to ask directions and eat. do you know?"

Liu Yang nodded humbly, grinning wide all the time. It was only at this moment that he really realized that he was really going abroad.

It's a pity that when he went to bed at night, Liu Yang began to toss and turn and couldn't fall asleep.

One is that the chicken blood is too strong, and the other is that Yao Ye wants to go abroad with him, eat and live with him for more than two months, what is the situation, that is a wolf, he must protect himself after all The front or the back, or this heart...

The next day Luo Xinhua formally introduced Liu Yang to Bauer. Standing closer, Liu Yang secretly looked at the coach who was going to guide him for two months.

Bauer was a bit fat, and he didn't look very tall. He had thick black hair combed back neatly, his beard was cleanly shaved, his clothes were buttoned up neatly, and his hem was straightened. Yes, he looks like a rigorous and meticulous person, but he has a friendly smile, and his eyes have been lingering on Liu Yang curiously.

After the official introduction, Ball participated in Liu Yang's daily training for the next few days, stood side by side with Luo Xinhua, followed Liu Yang's situation, and occasionally had a low-pitched conversation with Luo Xinhua.

He can speak some Chinese, and Luo Xinhua can speak some English. Both of them are half-baked and awkward, but they can barely communicate.

When Liu Yang arrived at the shore, if he met Bauer's eyes, he would smile and nod politely, but it was hard to see whether he was satisfied with him, and his emotions were well hidden.

Unable to see what was going on in his heart, Liu Yang was rather apprehensive, fearing that he would look down on him and finally decided not to bring him.

Of course, this is Liu Yang's unfounded worry. Even if he can't meet Ball's request, for Luo Xinhua's sake, he will guide him for two months.

Finally, a week later, on May 5th, Liu Yang left the Sichuan provincial team with his foreign teacher.

The day before he left, Liu Yang's mother came over again and brought some special dishes from his hometown to Baoer and Luo Xinhua. , Looking back and forth at the oil-based meat, bacon, sausage, pickles and other things in the bottles and cans, I like it very much.

In the evening, Liu Yang's mother cooked a meal at Luo Xinhua's place. She made a large bowl of dumplings and invited Baoer and Ye Shuwen. The meal was lively, and the relationship between Baoer and Liu Yang became closer. many.

I got on the plane in the morning and arrived in Beijing at noon. It was Yao Ye who came to pick me up. When I was in the airport lobby, when Ball saw Yao Ye from a distance, his face was full of smiles. After shouting Beloved of Water, he boarded Before giving Yao Ye a big hug.

Liu Yang wrinkled his eyebrows behind and smiled, this nickname would make him shocked every time he heard it.

Yao Ye was facing him, seeing his expression, he bared his teeth and glared at him.

The two people in front let go, and Liu Yang didn't pretend to be friendly like a handshake, but directly gave Yao Ye a big hug, and Yao Ye immediately smiled flattered.

Because of the need to stay for one night, Yao Ye took them to open a room and then went around Beijing. Because of time constraints, it was just a quick tour. When Liu Yang came to Beijing to participate in the competition a few months ago, these places In fact, I have been there too, but I don’t know if it’s because people feel refreshed on happy occasions, but I feel that Beijing seems to be more beautiful this time.

In the evening, when Yao Ye said that he wanted to treat guests to dinner, Quanjude Roast Duck popped into Liu Yang’s head immediately. Unfortunately, he didn’t know it was a snack street until he got there. Stomach.

When they left the snack street, all three of them did the same thing, holding their waists, touching their stomachs, straightened their necks, and burped for a long time.

Ball gave Yao Ye a thumbs up and nodded, extremely satisfied.

Liu Yang took the opportunity to ask Yao Ye why he didn't eat the most famous roast duck in Beijing.

Yao Ye winked and smiled, "Want to eat? I'll take you there in the future, and you can eat as much as you want."

This tone immediately made Liu Yang think of the first step in picking up a girl—feed you, and then kill and eat.

So Liu Yang started to have a headache again.

After eating, Yao Ye sent them back to the hotel and left.

Liu Yang and Baoer lived separately. The first thing Liu Yang did when he entered the room was to take out a bag of dumplings from the suitcase, look at them for a while, and throw them into the trash can.

As a result, I got up in the middle of the night and turned the dumplings out of the trash can, opened them layer by layer, sniffed them, took a bite, spit them out, and they were broken.

The next day Yao Ye appeared in front of his eyes full of energy.

Wearing a white sportswear, holding a suitcase in his hand, and wearing a tennis cap of the same color on his head.

Tsk, this taste.

Liu Yang smacked his mouth and sighed, it's too fucking sunny.

Ball is British, and their destination is Plymouth, England. Liu Yang seemed to be able to smell the water in the air when he got off the plane. Here, Plymouth has a wide coastline. Surfing, diving, and skateboarding are the most famous places here. Sports is a city of water.

Yao Ye has been here several times, and he introduced Liu Yang non-stop along the way, and Liu Yang opened his eyes greedily to see the exotic scenery.

Foreigners with deep outlines are in sight, different from Chinese buildings, this novelty almost made most of the film in his camera.

Yao Ye pursed his lips and smiled, looking at him almost dotingly, occasionally pointing out distinctive buildings to him.

Bauer was driving in front, and when he heard the interaction between the two young people behind him, he also smiled.

Bauer is a professional swimming coach and has the title of special coach in the UK. He is currently working in a swimming club. He also has many students under him, and two players who have achieved good results in the world.

Before arranging rooms for them, Ball first brought them to the training hall. There are still many players training in the swimming pool. It seems that the atmosphere is very relaxed. The players on the shore talked and laughed softly, but when they were about to set off, they were instantly solemn. .

What surprised Liu Yang the most was their underwater training, which felt very chaotic. Some swam desperately, some just practiced hand movements or leg movements, and some even dived underwater and swam all the way to the shore. of.

Yao Ye elbowed him and said, "Today should be technical training. They generally take a large proportion of technical training here, and there are different training methods for everyone, which can be used for reference."

Liu Yang nodded and remembered something, "What do you think we belong to? Are we exchange students?"

Yao Ye chuckled, and patted him on the head, "You want to give money, do you think others teach us for nothing? But your coach Luo applied for the training allowance for you, so it's not your turn to get the money, but I , This time I came out at my own expense, Coach Huang wouldn’t let me go, and my uncle was worried, so you forced me to come out with you, but the deposit was severely reduced.”

"I don't think you're very happy." Liu Yang complained. Others couldn't find well-known foreign teachers, and he was still poor here.

Yao Ye's smile froze for a moment.

If Liu Yang didn't know Yao Ye's thoughts, maybe this expression would have been enough, but now he knew it clearly, and immediately knew that this sentence was poking at Yao Ye's sensitive point, so he hurriedly added a sentence here. , "Haha, but I still want to thank you for coming. After all, I am really confused here, and I don't even have anyone to talk to."

Yao Ye smiled, and climbed up the pole, "That's right, although you seem to be able to take care of yourself, but after all, you have traveled so far abroad, and there is no one to follow. Not only my uncle is worried, but your family is also worried." no."

Liu Yang nodded, knowing that Yao Ye wasn't making excuses, it was the truth, after all, he was only 14 years old on the outside, and he was still a child, so he didn't worry about having such a big child, but who said there was something wrong inside? With some other intentions, after all, he Yao Ye didn't run a charity hall, and just for the sake of being a junior, he would spend money to accompany him, and he wouldn't do it for anyone else.

To be honest, Liu Yang was really touched a little.
