young with you

3. Unfamiliar

From that day on, Zhang Yining could see Ai Fukuhara who arrived earlier than her every morning.

She would teach every day, and the two of them only focused on practicing the ball, and would not talk about anything else.

Until one day Zhang Yining got up a little early and saw Ai Fukuhara who had recklessly left the dormitory and trotted all the way.

She was tall and long-legged, and took two quick steps to follow.

After finding out that the girl went directly to the training room, she started warming up without eating anything.

She frowned and opened the door.

Ai Fukuhara was used to hearing the sound of the door opening and turned her head to call Ning Jie.

Zhang Yining used to feel happy when he saw her smiling face, but today he couldn't feel happy at all.

With a cold face, she didn't go up to teach her, but stood at the door and said, "Come with me."

Ai Fukuhara hurried to the front of Zhang Yining, just planning to be alone for an hour or two.I want her to feel that she is diligent and willing to teach herself.I even want Zhang Yining to allocate this part of the time to herself, without anyone else.

She was still young, and she simply felt that she liked this person and wanted to stay with her.Not sure if there's anything wrong with it.

She stared at Zhang Yining's back in a daze for a moment, feeling very sad by her cold eyes.

So sad, I almost want to cry.

Zhang Yining was wrapped in a large sportswear, walked two steps but did not wait for Ai Fukuhara to catch up, and looked back in doubt.

As soon as she turned her head, Fukuhara Ai ran up to her as fast as a rabbit and almost ran into her.

She supported Ai Fukuhara and took a step back to distance herself.The porcelain doll watched her push herself away, her eyes were reddened by injury.

Zhang Yining didn't know where to put her hands, she said anxiously: "Don't cry..."

"Sister Ning, don't you like me?" As soon as the porcelain doll opened her mouth, tears burst out of her eyes.

"I don't dislike you."

Ai Fukuhara grabbed her sleeve and leaned closer: "But you were so fierce just now..."

In front of Zhang Yining's eyes was a cute and pitiful baby face. She clenched her hands tightly in her pockets, suppressing her urge to pinch her face.

She held her breath, and said helplessly: "I saw that you didn't eat, so I told you to have breakfast... You don't eat breakfast every day, do you? You are an athlete, do you even want someone to tell you about this?"

"But you just avoided me..."

"I was afraid of knocking you, what should you do if you break it?"

Fukuhara was so crying that he was out of breath, and gradually couldn't hold it back: "But...but..."

Zhang Yining patted her on the shoulder and coaxed her patiently: "What else?"

"Ah, sister Ning, you don't even smile at me!"

"It's just this habit of mine, and I can't change it all at once." She felt that her head was getting bigger now, and she didn't have such a hard time playing table tennis, so she asked her in a compromised way: "Then what should I do?"

"I want... I want Sister Ning to give me a hug."

"..." Zhang Yining didn't expect to solve it like this, and she didn't know how to answer the conversation, but felt that the porcelain doll was becoming more and more unbearable, so she could only embrace her and hug her.

Ai Fukuhara's hairy head rubbed against her chin, itching.

"Good, don't cry."

Ai Fukuhara blushed as she buried herself in her arms, it was rare to hear Zhang Yining coaxing her so patiently, nodding obediently when he saw it was good.

"Eat well in the future."

"it is good."

Zhang Yining sighed: "I will teach you later."

"Ah."

There have been some rumors circulating in the team recently.

One of the protagonists of the rumor is Ai Fukuhara, and the other protagonist is a young man who ranks above 80 in the team.

In fact, for a pretty and lovable little girl like Ai Fukuhara, even though the team expressly forbids dating, some people still can't help but like her.

When playing in the morning, Zhang Yining asked casually.

"Oh, talk about him." Porcelain doll drank water with a smile, and didn't care too much: "It's not familiar, it's just acquaintance."

Zhang Yining lowered his head to play with the ping pong ball in his hand, without looking at her: "How did you meet?"

Ai Fukuhara frowned: "It seems that he took the initiative to contact me, and I also find it strange."

"do you like him?"

"It's okay." Ai Fukuhara tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "But I like Sister Nan better..."

She quietly glanced at Zhang Yining who lowered her head, saw her clear side face, fair and slender neck, and whispered, "With you."

Zhang Yining was stunned for a moment, and her words stirred up ripples in her heart—it wasn't enough to set off a stormy sea, but it made people feel confused.

She felt like she had gotten something from Ai Fukuhara, but it seemed like she hadn't got anything yet.

When Ai Fukuhara was resting under the tree, the 81 people who had always been close to her came over.

She wasn't used to getting too close to him, so she moved a little to the side calmly.

"Have you been tired from training recently?"

"A bit."

"Actually, your skills are already very good, you don't have to force yourself to be like Zhang Yining and the others."

Ai Fukuhara frowned a little unhappy: "I came here to become like Sister Ning and Sister Nan one day."

The 81st ranked with some inadvertent contempt: "That's not something that can be achieved with hard work."

Ai Fukuhara became more and more unhappy, she stood up abruptly: "That's better than not working hard!"

After finishing speaking angrily, he left.

The 81st members wanted to keep up, but Fukuhara Ai turned around and yelled "Don't follow me", so they could only keep their distance in desperation.

Zhang Yining returned to the dormitory with a cold face.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that he was unhappy, Wang Nan walked over and pinched her face gently.

Zhang Yining let out a long breath, and looked at his comrades fighting side by side with some vulnerability.

This made Wang Nan's heart tighten. She hugged Zhang Yining's shoulders, with a worried look on her face: "What's the matter, who has the ability to provoke our family, Aning?"

"Nan Nan, I'm in a bad mood." Zhang Yining leaned against Wang Nan, looking extremely tired.

"Can you tell me why?"

Zhang Yining shook her head: "I don't know what to say."

Wang Nan sighed: "You are about to compete, don't let excess emotions affect you."

"Well, I'm adjusting."

The two were silent for a moment, and Wang Nan said again: "Xiao Ai is not in a good mood recently. She will come to ask me at that time."

"...ask you what?"

"She said she wanted to prepare a unique gift for someone she liked very much, and asked me what would be better."

Zhang Yining listened but didn't speak.

"I asked her how much she liked it. She said she liked it a little more than she liked me." Wang Nan smiled helplessly: "This girl has really grown up. Don't tell me who I am..."

"I'm going to sleep first." Zhang Yining heard her rambling, stood up with her shoulders, and went back to the room with her shoulders slumped.

Ai Fukuhara has not waited for Zhang Yining who arrived early for several days.

She always came to the training ground with Wang Nan and walked together, and when they met and said hello, they passed by without looking back.

Ai Fukuhara feels that Zhang Yining doesn't want to see her very much recently.

After enduring it for a few days, I made a special trip to their dormitory and knocked on the door.

Wang Nan opened the door and saw a white and tender porcelain doll with a ball head, standing at the door and smiling at her.

"Sister Nan!"

"Little love, come quickly."

Ai Fukuhara was pulled in, and looked around carefully, but she didn't see the person she wanted to see.

"Is Sister Ning not here?"

"Oh her, she went out with her boyfriend."

Ai Fukuhara's face turned pale, her pupils opened slightly, and she repeated the question in disbelief: "Sister Ning...boyfriend?"

"Yeah." Wang Nan pulled her to sit down: "Ah Ning is going to compete in a while. She has been in a bad mood recently, and she is a bit negative in playing. Give her two days off to rest and reflect."

"She never told me..."

Wang Nan looked at the little girl and smiled: "Xiao Ai, you, sister Ning, are like this. You are bored in your heart and don't want to say anything."

"But after getting along with her for a long time, you will know that she is actually a girl who needs company and love."

"She has never told anyone about how much hard work she has endured for so many years to become what she is now."

"Wake up earlier than me and go to bed later than me every day, don't say anything when you are injured, and play the game without changing your face when you are injured."

"She is not good at expressing. Sometimes if she gives you a cold face, you must not take it to heart."

Ai Fukuhara lowered her head: "Well, I know. I just haven't talked to her for a long time..."

"Then when she comes back from the game, let's celebrate her together."

"it is good."

It's not too early to say something celebratory.

Zhang Yining shaved his opponent's head many times with a cold face on the field.

The coach reminded her of her style of play, and she looked helpless: "But then I'm really afraid that she won't be able to play."

It looks arrogant and arrogant, but it is so natural.

In the past, Zhang Yining seldom did this kind of shaved head. Later, the coach asked her, and she said: "That guy keeps asking me to pick up the ball. I don't like it. If I want to shave, I shave it."

With the current strength of the Great Demon King, it is indeed difficult to find an opponent.

When Zhang Yining hugged the coach wearing a medal, and stood on the podium wearing a flag, he was really the unparalleled demeanor of a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses.

Ai Fukuhara watched the live broadcast while eating biscuits on the other end, feeling proud and envious.He even wanted to be the first to stand there for her to hug when she won the victory.

She watched Zhang Yining standing in front of the camera with a smile on her face for an interview, and the media suddenly asked herself.

Zhang Yining's smile paused for a moment, and she said politely and politely, "I'm actually not very familiar with her."

"Last time, I didn't say anything about letting the water go. Normally, we can't play eleven to zero, so I gave up two."

"I'm not very familiar with it, so ask something else..."

Ai Fukuhara's expression was stiff, and then she cried uncontrollably.

not too familiar...

It turned out that she and Zhang Yining could only say "not very familiar".

Tears wiped more and more, and he simply buried his head and cried neatly.

It's so sad, Biscuit can't be coaxed anymore, and Zhang Yining can't be coaxed anymore.

She held tightly the carefully selected presents that she carried with her, not knowing when she would be able to send them out.
