17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎"Just want to say goodnight to you."◎

Deng Chang was stunned for half a minute. During this half minute, Lu Xi had been standing in front of him, looking at him eagerly, looking aggrieved.

Although this grievance seems unreasonable to Deng Chang, there are many things in the world that cannot be justified at all.For example, when Lu Xi is new to the national team, it should be Lu Xi's initiative to ask to add WeChat, rather than waiting for him to add it.

Deng Chang took out his mobile phone, called up the QR code and handed it to Lu Xi: "Then add it."

Unexpectedly, Lu Xi stared at the QR code for a few seconds, pushed Deng Chang's phone, and said in a temper: "No, you add me."

Deng Chang: "..."

"Then give me the QR code." Deng Chang gave in.

Lucy said frankly, "I don't know how to do it."

This man was drinking and talking nonsense, but his face was sober, and he felt sorry for trying to fool him.

Deng Chang couldn't speak, and sighed for a long time: "Give me your mobile phone."

Lucy was quite obedient this time, and handed over the phone, Deng Chang pressed the side button, the screen lit up, and six small squares representing passwords appeared in the middle of the screen.

"Your password." Deng Chang said, wanting to hand back the phone, but before he gave it back, Lu Xi had already said a series of numbers directly.

Deng Chang was stunned.

He thought that no matter what happened tonight, he wouldn't be surprised, but when Lucy, who was standing in the light, gave him the mobile phone password without any defense, he still couldn't describe his inner feelings.

"You really can't drink for nothing." Deng Chang unlocked Lu Xi's phone, "otherwise you would sell yourself without knowing it."

Lu Xi blinked, obviously he didn't understand Deng Chang's words, but he didn't struggle, instead he asked suddenly: "Do you know what my password means?"

...and bring out the exam questions.

Deng Chang sighed: "Your birthday."

The examiner nodded in satisfaction, completely ignoring why Deng Chang knew the correct answer to the super-outline question: "That's about the same."

Deng Chang didn't answer the call, so he switched to Lu Xi's WeChat, called out his QR code, added it after scanning, and handed the phone back: "You pass by yourself?"

Lucy gave a "hmm", clicked through, and said, "Say hello to me."

Deng Chang petrified again for a few seconds.

Forget it, he won't feel strange about what happened today.

Deng Changshun opened the chat box from the location, and typed "Hello" to Lu Xi.

A sliding box popped up in the chat box instantly:

- Lucy: [Hold fists];

Deng Chang: "..."

He decided not to go back.

He was afraid that Lucy would quit the national team immediately when he woke up tomorrow morning and saw the chat records.

"Let's go." Deng Chang tried again.

Lu Xi didn't pick any faults this time, nodded, turned around, and walked along the alley in the direction of Shouti.

-

Although he drank too much, Lu Xi still knew his way and talked a lot on the road.

"Going to shoot tomorrow, right?" Lucy asked.

"Yes." Deng Chang said.

"How much can you give me?" Lucy asked again.

This Deng Chang really doesn't know, he himself has won the silver medal in the Four Continents Competition in recent months, and with the help of Lucy, his net worth has doubled, and this advertisement has more than 1 yuan.

He doesn't know the price of Lu Xi, but Lu Xi is the champion of the World Youth Championship, and the popularity is much higher, so the price is estimated to be much higher.

"At least tens of thousands." Deng Chang said, "Six figures are also possible."

"That's great." Lucy said, "I didn't know that being an athlete could make money."

"When you become famous in the future, your income will be dozens or even hundreds of times what you are now," Deng Chang said.

"That would be great." Lucy said with a smile, "Then I'll invest in improving the food in our team cafeteria. My dad writes reports every year to apply for funds until he gets bald."

After Deng Chang realized that "our team" referred to Crane City, he first thought that Huang Bin's baldness might have nothing to do with writing the report.

Then I thought, what Lu Xi wanted to make money was actually to improve the food of the Crane City team...

Deng Chang was actually not surprised.

In his heart, Lucy was such a child.

-

Lu Xi walked into the small garden in the dormitory area of ​​the first body without incident, and finally relieved Deng Chang who followed him, fearing that something would happen to him.

There is actually no difference between walking in the dormitory area and walking in the school. Most of the people passing by are teenagers and girls in their teens.

It's getting late now, and some couples are secretly hugging and kissing in the dark.

Lu Xi didn't care when she saw it, Deng Chang pretended not to see it, there was a loudspeaker on the side of the road, playing music.

Figure skaters have a special art appreciation class, which is a Scottish folk song, "Auld Lang Syne".

The pure music version was played, and Lu Xi hummed along. Deng Chang was surprised to find that his English pronunciation was accurate, and the melody he hummed softly was also very nice.

After singing along for a while, Lu Xi suddenly turned around and looked at Deng Chang.

The evening wind and music swayed together, and Lucy's dark pupils shone with the tiny waves of stars falling into them.

Deng Chang stopped very consciously: "What's wrong?"

"If you think about it, we've known each other for so many years." Lucy said.

Deng Chang guessed that it was because of the background music that he started the association, so he echoed: "Yes."

Lucy clicked her tongue quite dissatisfied: "I've known you for so many years, but you haven't treated me any better."

Deng Chang: "..."

-

Now Deng Chang sincerely hopes to turn back the time, he will not hesitate to fork out Bao Zhongjie who came over with a white wine glass, and now he can't stand this Lucy.

But there was no Bao Zhongjie in front of him, only Lu Xi who was waiting for him to answer after speaking, and who would be dissatisfied if he answered poorly.

Deng Chang could only ask: "How can I treat you well?"

Lucy held his chin and thought for a while: "I sincerely congratulate me on winning the championship."

Deng Chang: "..."

Fortunately, for a moment, he really thought that Lu Xi could say something, but in the end, the words turned back.

Facts have proved that Lu Xi is still the same Lu Xi, but a Lu Xi who is too drunk so his words are not amazing and endless.

"Okay." Deng Chang said, "I sincerely congratulate you on winning the national championship."

Lucy thought for a while, "Not very sincere."

He is also picky.

Deng Chang's head was so big that he couldn't choose what to say: "Then I will congratulate you again in the postscript of the weather forecast tomorrow?"

-

Coincidentally, as soon as Deng Chang said this, the music on the loudspeaker played to the chorus, and there was a distance between Lu Xi and him, so Lu Xi couldn't hear clearly, only heard "Congratulations again .”

He frowned: "What?"

"I said, I will send a WeChat message to congratulate you again later." Deng Chang said after being silent for half a second.

Lu Xi felt that Deng Chang didn't seem to say this the first time, but he knew that he had drunk too much and might have misheard, so he nodded: "What you say means what you say."

Deng Chang's expression always felt a little more speechless than usual in the night, but he still said cooperatively: "It counts."

Lucy was finally satisfied and nodded: "Let's go."

Deng Chang hummed, Lu Xi saw that he was falling behind her, and ran to his side in two steps, shoulder to shoulder with him, Deng Chang glanced at him.

Deng Chang always looked at people like this, indifferently, and coupled with his cold personality, it seemed that he was not happy to see anyone. Normally, Lu Xi would not recruit him again.

But today, Lucifer had to let this iceberg take care of him, so he raised his face: "What are you looking at? You can't walk side by side?"

Deng Chang looked at him silently for a while, then turned back to look at the front: "OK."

This "OK" made Lu Xi feel very light. When he went up the stairs, he was in a good mood to think about his victory today: Deng Chang added him on WeChat, said hello to him, and sincerely congratulated him on winning the national championship .

Look, people who always have a cold face are not so difficult to get along with.

Aren't they already friends?

If you are a friend, you should talk more.

So when he walked to the door of the dormitory, after Lu Xi unscrewed the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Deng Chang."

Looking back, he was stunned for a moment, because he found Deng Chang standing at the door without even taking out the key.

Deng Chang was also obviously taken aback, took out the key and twirled it between his fingers before asking, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Lucy smiled, "I just want to say good night to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Deng Chang glanced at him. He usually looked very calm, but today his eyes were probably stained with moonlight, and his pupils were reflected lightly, making him look a little soft.

Lu Xi suddenly felt a subtle strangeness in his heart. He didn't know what his reaction was. Before he had time to investigate further, Deng Chang had already said, "Well, good night."

Satisfied, Lu Xi waved to Deng Chang with a smile, and went into the room to rest.

-

"Tom tom tom!"

"Tom tom tom!"

The knock on the door made Lucy struggle to open his eyes.

My head hurts so much that it's going to split, and a sip of white wine is really strong aftertaste.

With a hangover and being woken up, Lu Xi got up so angry that he yelled at the door, "Who!"

Outside, Deng Chang's voice was much calmer than his: "Me."

When Lu Xi heard that he was an acquaintance, he calmed down and rubbed his eyes: "Ah, wait a minute, I..."

I……

The switch was turned on, and fragmentary memories flooded into my mind.

Hold.

Lucy shivered and sat up.

He is actually a bit fragmented, but he vaguely remembers some scenes, for example, he asked Deng Chang "Why didn't you add me on WeChat".

But thinking about it carefully, I think it should be a dream.

If it wasn't a dream, it would be hard to explain the scene of Deng Chang taking his phone and scanning his QR code.

It is also difficult to explain that he repeatedly forced Deng Chang to congratulate him on winning the championship.

But if it's a dream, isn't it a little too real?

Lu Xi stared blankly at the opposite bedpost until Deng Chang knocked on the door again.

"Wait a moment." Lu Xi squeezed out a sentence through his teeth, and then quickly searched in the bed, found the mobile phone that had fallen somewhere, and quickly opened WeChat.

At the top of the WeChat interface, there is a bright landscape profile picture with a nickname of "Deng Chang" and an unread message.

-Congratulations on your national championship.

Lucy:"……"

-

Ten minutes later, Deng Chang waited outside the door for a well-dressed, well-behaved and cute Lucy with a particularly dull expression.

"I didn't say anything yesterday." After Lu Xi opened the door, that was the first sentence he said to Deng Chang.

Deng Chang didn't want to mention what happened yesterday, but based on what he knew about Lu Xi, he knew that Lu Xi would be entangled until his death.But I didn't expect Lu Xi to take the initiative to mention it.

Deng Chang couldn't help asking: "Who said that?"

Lucy was silent for a second, and replied blankly: "Father of Otto."

Deng Chang: "..."

-

Although he just wanted to pretend to be dead now, he couldn't hide from the shooting. Lu Xi carried an ice bag under Deng Chang's reminder, and the two went downstairs. Deng Chang's attitude was very natural, so he pretended to have amnesia with a paralyzed face.

After leaving the dormitory area, there was already a car waiting. In the car were coach Chen Qi, Wang Lili, and a very friendly man with a round face.

Today's national championship competition is still going on, but Chen Qi only has men's singles players in his hands. Today is the pair and ice dance events. He doesn't need to be present, he just goes with the shoot.

After getting in the car, Lu Xi and Deng Chang were in the last seat side by side. Wang Lili turned around from the front row and told them about today's shooting situation.

Today I want to shoot a promotional video for a new jacket series of a domestic sports brand, and shoot some on-ice content. I could have shot it at the first event, but there were no venues available during the championship, so I rented an ice rink from a skating club.

"The content of the shooting is very simple, some easy skating, and then two or three axels." Wang Lili said, and distributed a brochure to each of them, and then looked at the round-faced man, "Brother Liao."

The round-faced man who was the only stranger in the car smiled kindly, took out a stack of documents from his briefcase, and handed it to Lu Xi: "Xiao Xi, this is your agency contract, which is independent of the athlete contract. After signing, we will The company will be responsible for helping you operate and contact business.”

The stack of documents was immediately handed over to Lu Xi with an undeniable momentum, along with a signature pen with the cap removed.

Lu Xi was actually a little dizzy, and he was still hungover, and the scene of the social death last night was still lingering in his head. He subconsciously took the pen and was about to sign, but suddenly Deng Chang touched his arm very lightly.

Lucy was taken aback.

It's amazing to say that he has never worked with Deng Chang before, and he doesn't know where the trust and tacit understanding in this person come from.

But anyway, Deng Chang touched Lu Xi's arm, and Lu Xi put down his pen knowingly.

"Does this have to be signed?" Lucy asked.
