17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎Have you finished your homework again? ◎

Coach Lin Yingsu, who suddenly had a stomachache because he ate spicy Chongqing noodles at night, rushed back from the toilet and saw such a horrifying situation:

Lucy had a sullen face, and the naked eye could see the words "unhappy" written on his face.

Deng Chang stood not far from him, arms folded, expressionless as always.

"Hey! Don't be awkward!" Lin Yingsu immediately raised Erkang's hand, actively performing the duty of maintaining the relationship between the team members, "What's the matter?"

Lucy said with a stern face, "Ask him."

Lin Yingsu glanced at Deng Chang, with the same cold face. For some reason, the difference in attributes between the two was so obvious that he blurted out: "Did you bully him?"

Deng Chang: "No."

Seeing a row of question marks floating above Lin Yingsu's head, Deng Chang added: "Watch the video."

Lin Yingsu couldn't understand these two bad boys who didn't talk well, but he followed Deng Chang's suggestion and went to the coach's room to adjust the video.

The cameras are turned on 24 hours a day in the competition venues, and the coaches can call them at any time. There is no sound in the video, but the movements can be seen clearly.

Five minutes later, Lin Yingsu came out of the coaching room with an expression between wanting to laugh and pain, and the muscles on his face were all terrified.

He patted Lu Xi on the shoulder: "Forget it, Xiao Xi, it's okay to go up to the difficulty level. Let's go back a little bit."

Lucy: "Oh."

Lu Xi really wanted to sue, but it was too embarrassing to sue, so he could only give Deng Chang an angry look.

You are just like the father of Ultra!

Deng Chang lowered his eyes, as if he didn't receive Lu Xi's anger at all, but made a gesture on the side twice, which was also a movement similar to opening his hands, but not as big as his own movement.

Lin Yingsu noticed, and laughed and teased: "Why, you also want to reorganize the dance?"

"No." Deng Chang withdrew his hand and replied calmly.

-

Three days later, the national team participating in the World Championships returned home.

Because Cui Xiao did not participate in the national championship game, the season ended, and he directly transferred back to his hometown after landing.

Chen Qi heard that Lu Xi really jumped around the back and outside, and didn't rest after landing, so he ate his lunch in a hurry, and went straight to the venue with his bag.

Lin Yingsu also came along. He and Chen Qi are brothers and have a good personal relationship.

And these days, Lu Xi was taken by him, and he felt like offering a treasure in front of his senior brother.

The time is two o'clock in the afternoon. According to the schedule, it is land training, but the two weeks before the competition is the preparation period, and the training time is arranged by the coach.

Lu Xi skated twice on the ice, stretched his hands and feet, and then slid in front of Chen Qi.

-

"Have you overheated?" Chen Qi asked.

Chen Qi looks gentle and elegant, but he is actually a natural stress monster. His eyes are very serious, and when he looks at people, he can't help but start to reflect on whether he has done anything wrong.

When he was a player, this kind of temperament allowed him to avoid being pressured by the referee, and when he became a coach, he could make his players docile with just one look.

Lu Xi played back a little in front of Lin Yingsu and Huang Bin, and immediately huddled in front of Chen Qi, even standing in a standard T-step, nodding obediently: "It's time to warm up."

Chen Qi said "hmm" and said, "Let's dance."

So Lucy assisted the slide and started the back and outer four weeks.

It wasn't accidental that he made the back and outer four sides before, so he really knew the movement, but the success rate was still not high.

Three-quarters of the way around the field, Lucy took off for the first time, stepped on the outside edge of his right foot, and had a rhythmic downward pressure and left spin on his hands and shoulders, flying into the air.

Snapped.

fell.

"Huh?" Chen Qi stared at Lu Xi and frowned slightly.

"It's normal to fall, but it's quite difficult around the back and outside, and this jump is a full circle." Lin Yingsu hurriedly smoothed things over.

"That's not what I'm talking about." Chen Qi still frowned, "His jumping...does it look familiar to you?"

Although the general posture of the athletes is the same when they take off, there are indeed subtle differences in small movements. Lu Xi's take-off posture around the back and outside is good, but...

"Familiar?" Lin Yingsu was puzzled, "I don't think so."

Chen Qi clicked his tongue, and his eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters: "It's very familiar, but I can't remember who it looks like."

At this time, Lu Xi had already got up, and looked towards Chen Qi, probably feeling a little guilty after falling, and anxiously waiting for his order.

Chen Qi gestured for Lu Xi to do it again, and the child immediately slid up again.

The second time I landed on the ice with one hand, the third time I finally landed well.

You can't do too many quadruple jumps, the momentum of landing on the ice is too great, and the players' knees and waist are very heavy. Chen Qi watched Lu Xi do it three times, and his level is almost acceptable.

The success rate is really not high, and it's not stable in the arrangement, but it's been a week, so it's not impossible to put it in.

Still have to think about it.

"Let's think about it, you relax first." Chen Qi said to Lucy on the ice.

Lucy responded, and obediently walked around the field to relax. Relaxation is a very important step after high-intensity exercise, which can avoid injuries caused by excessive muscle fatigue.

Some athletes like to get off the ice to relax, but Lucy obviously likes to stay on the ice. He slid slowly around the field, bent down to beat his legs, held his calves with his hands, and massaged the sore muscles.

This habit is exactly the same as that of Deng Chang.

Thinking of Deng Chang, Chen Qi patted Lin Yingsu: "How do these two children in my family get along?"

-

Chen Qi has always been very concerned about the relationship between Deng Chang and Lu Xi, because if there is no accident, they will compete in the same field for one or two Olympic cycles in the future.

Two players of similar age and strength are in the same team. If they get along well, they promote each other. If they don't get along well... Chen Qi doesn't dare to think about it.

In Chen Qi's heart, the relationship between the little twin stars is much more important than this national championship match.

"It's not good, but it's not bad either." Lin Yingsu thought for a while, "Basically he doesn't talk, but he hasn't quarreled."

Seeing Chen Qi's expression of concern, Lin Yingsu comforted him and said, "The two you brought, the eldest child is just like an iceberg, and the second child is not very talkative. They didn't train together before, so they don't know each other. You can't count on it. Everyone is familiar with Cui Xiao."

"That's right." Chen Qi nodded.

Take your time, the two kids are both arrogant and of the same age, a World Youth Champion and a silver medalist in the Four Continents Championship, and because they are one year apart, they haven't competed in major competitions yet, so they are temporarily dissatisfied with each other. Competing is also normal.

At that time, organize a team building to promote the relationship between the two children.

In fact, Lucy is easy to deal with, mad to mad, in reality he is just a child.

Deng Chang is a bit of a headache, because his mental age is obviously mature, and Chen Qi doesn't know what he is thinking, especially recently, he is deeper than before.

-

Chen Qi was thinking about it when the automatic door outside the ice rink opened with a "squeak".

The competition hall is not open to the public during the preparation period for the competition, and a key card is required, so Chen Qi looked over and was a little surprised when he saw who was coming.

"Talk about the big baby, and the big baby will be there." Chen Qi clicked his tongue.

It was the first time that Deng Dawa at the door raised her eyebrows and looked over when she heard this nickname.

"I didn't call you." Chen Qi was keenly aware that Deng Chang would not like the nickname, so he decisively fooled the child, and opened a new topic by the way, "It's so early today, have you finished your homework?"

"Yes." Deng Chang nodded.

Deng Chang was carrying an ice bag, but he was wearing a school uniform, with his sleeves rolled up a bit, revealing half of his thin and cold arms.

He should have come all the way from school, jogging along the way to warm up, with thin sweat on his forehead, his figure is as tall and straight as a young poplar.

Every time Chen Qi sees him and Lu Xi, he has to sigh in his heart, youth is so beautiful.

But now, in fact, Chen Qi is mainly puzzled: "Aren't you a sophomore this year? There are so few homework for the city's key sophomores?"

"I write fast." Deng Chang sat down, opened the ice bag, and took out his neatly folded training clothes.

"Oh." Chen Qi nodded, Deng Chang seemed to have been doing pretty well.

He suddenly felt something was wrong again, he reacted, and looked at his watch, "No, it's only two o'clock, so you're leaving school now?"

Deng Chang paused.
