17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎You are the only one◎

There were exclamations from the auditorium, and Lu Xi almost jumped onto the ice to help Deng Chang.

In fact, he really did this, but he was dragged to death by Chen Qi and Cui Xiao.

After all, it seems that Deng Chang just stumbled, and figure skaters stumbled during the thank you stage, not many, but not uncommon, and you can find a bunch of collections.

Deng Chang kept kneeling on one knee and slowed down for a second or two. With his eyes closed, there seemed to be little golden stars spinning in his vision.

I can feel the warm blood flowing around my head, so that the blackness in my field of vision seems to be faintly red.

However, the feeling of losing the center of gravity soon became better. Deng Chang stood up, smiled at the audience, and saluted again.

Everyone saw that he was fine, so they laughed happily and continued to applaud.

Lucy and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. Lucy changed from being tense and ready to rush onto the ice to grabbing the wall of the ice rink wall and staring at the field intently.

As before, Deng Chang fished a puppy on the ice, thanked him, and left.

When he was off the ice, everyone from the national team rushed to help him. Chen Qi asked nervously, "Is there anything uncomfortable? Should I call the team doctor?"

Deng Chang shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a little weak."

Lucy handed over a bottle of peach-flavored sports drink.

From the age of 16 to the present, the best way for Lucy to express all positive emotions such as goodwill, comfort, and concern to others is to hand over a bottle of sports drink.

Deng Chang looked at it, his eyes were bent, he was obviously smiling, and then he took it.

Together with Chen Qi and Cui Xiao, he walked up to the first-class seats.

Deng Chang ranked second after the short program, so he was the penultimate in the free skating. In front of him, Jayers got a total score of 300.51, temporarily ranking first. Deng Chang needs to win To 195+ free skate score.Judging from the performance of Deng Chang's program, this is not impossible. His free skating score this year has been around 210. The difficulty has been lowered, and some execution points will be deducted because of falls, but this may It is something that can be smoothed out of the 15-point difference.

When the on-site referee scored, Deng Chang's performance in the difficult free skating was replayed on the big screen. The final score came out. Deng Chang scored 197.1, beating Jayers by 1 point, and securing the silver medal in the World Championships ahead of schedule.

When Deng Chang saw this result, he smiled at the camera, waved the puppy in his hand, and then went off to rest.

When he came down, Lu Xi could clearly see that Deng Chang's condition was still not good. His face was very pale, and his wrist muscles trembled uncontrollably when he walked, which was a sign of excessive physical exertion.

Most athletes don't like to show themselves like this to outsiders. Fortunately, when they returned to the locker room, it was already a closed area of ​​the team. The team doctor immediately came up to give Deng Chang a slow release. Lu Xi stood aside and couldn't get in.

After thinking about it for a while, he jumped onto the stool decisively, and with the athlete's excellent balance ability, shrank into a pine cone that only needed a small fulcrum, squatted beside Deng Chang, and rubbed his hands.

The team doctor looked at Lu Xi in astonishment, as if he wanted to say something, but Chen Qi waved his hand, which meant to stop talking, so the team doctor shut up obediently and continued to massage Deng Chang.

Deng Chang was so tired that he couldn't speak. After completing a series of procedures to pay tribute to the fans, he was completely exhausted, and he kept sweating. Lucy took another dozen tissues to wipe him.

Team doctor A looked at Lu Xi who completely treated them as nothing, only Deng Chang's expression in his eyes: "..."

Team Doctor B: emmm;

The two team doctors looked at each other, unable to grasp the situation in front of them, so they looked at their leader, head coach Chen Qi at the same time.

Chen Qi: The Gaze of Wisdom.jpg;

Team doctor A and team doctor B:! !

They were keenly aware of something in the dumb conversation, and immediately lowered their heads and pretended to be dead. They couldn't see or think about anything other than giving Deng Chang a massage.

In this process, Orihara Chisato completed his free skating performance.

Orihara Qianli player has been in a very hot state since Varichenko retired. In addition, Deng Chang and Lu Xi, the three of them dominated the men's singles for a while, and let the European and American men's singles represented by Geers and Kadok After the loss of Lao Wa, the Russian men's singles were all eclipsed. In the past few seasons, Orihara's world ranking has always been No. [-], and his real-time ranking at the end of the short program is also No. [-].

In this free skating performance, Orihara accomplished it perfectly. He took the highest difficulty. After Deng Chang lowered the difficulty, no one in the audience could match him, and his performance was almost flawless, or there was no problem with zero flaws.

In a classic Japanese song, Chisato Orihara's performance is sometimes like the quiet bamboo grove around the high-level steps when climbing a shrine, and sometimes like the strong waves of the island when the sea breeze blows by. Even as an opponent, Lucy has to admit that this is The best performance of his career.

The final score of this program is 218.33 points.

Refreshing the world record of 2019 points in free skating set by Lucy at the World Championships in 210.

Chisato Orihara won the gold medal in the World Championships without a doubt by virtue of her high scores in the short program and free skating.Deng Chang won the runner-up despite his illness.

With a silver medal in the World Championships, a gold medal in the Grand Prix, and a silver medal in the Four Continents, the national team has successfully completed its mission this year and officially entered the preparations for the Olympic season.

But after returning to China, the first thing the athletes do is to go back to rest.

During the competition, Deng Chang relied on his willpower to survive a season. After returning to China, he lay in bed for three days. During this period, people came to see him with flowers and nutritional supplements, which made Lucy have no time to come. meet him.

Deng Chang was discharged from the hospital on the fourth day.

The sunset glow in the capital that night was very good, the sky was red with burning clouds, the spire of the nearby stadium, the high-rise office buildings in the distance, and the TV station in the distance were all coated with a layer of pink in the red clouds.

One thing that is particularly good about the figure skating season is that at the end of the season, spring has just arrived, which makes people feel that no matter what time it is, there is a renewed vitality in everything.

"It's as if I haven't been out of the house in my life." Deng Chang sighed, "When I was lying on the bed, I saw double images, and when I opened my eyes, it was full of flowers, or it was just snacks. I thought I was dead."

Lucy:"……"

He was surprised at first that Deng Chang made such a joke suddenly, and then he was amused to laugh. Deng Chang looked at him sideways, with a smile in his eyes.

The two walked side by side on the way home, until they entered the corridor, no one looked at them, and they immediately turned into arm in arm.

When they entered the room, without saying a word, Lu Xi hugged him first, and Deng Chang put his arms around him. The two of them pressed their faces together, and Lu Xi buried his face in Deng Chang's neck.

Deng Chang has lost five catties in the past few days, which doesn't seem like a lot, but considering his own small base, the feeling of weight loss is still obvious.

"You've been great this year." Lucy whispered.

"You're great too." Deng Chang felt the uneasiness in Lu Xi's words because of his illness, and comforted Lu Xi's hair, "Our little Xi is back."

"Ah." Thinking of this, Lu Xi felt a little happy again, "Let's work hard together next year."

"Yes." Deng Chang said, and gently kissed Lu Xi's forehead, "Thank you for always being with me during the World Championships, thank you for always being with me."

"Aren't we mutual?" Lucy said, "Why are you being so polite all of a sudden?"

"It's not the same." Deng Chang said. After saying this, he looked into Lu Xi's eyes and was silent for a while, "I don't have my parents looking at me."

Lucy was stunned.Since Deng Chang's parents "sold" him to Bao Zhongjie, because of the burden of their own lives, and perhaps guilt, they have never appeared in Deng Chang's life. They are not blaming anything, but in comparison. , Huang Bin and Gu Qianqian gave him too much love.

"I..." Lu Xi didn't know what to say, and looked at Deng Chang in embarrassment, his eyes were dark.

"I didn't want you to feel sorry for me." Deng Chang smiled, looked at Lu Xi, then closed his eyes and leaned over, kissing Lu Xi's lips.

The twilight covered the bright sunset outside the window, and when the young man's lips touched softly in the room, Deng Chang whispered:

"Only you are looking at me. I mean, to me, you are the only one."
