Chapter 17 Prove it to yourself
Walking alone on the way home, An Sheng didn't feel anything at first, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He knew that he was still affected by Xia Yutong's words after all.

Back home, An Sheng ate dinner hastily, and then devoted himself to training, but just at the beginning, he felt very bored.

"Maybe I should think of a way to adapt myself to the new racket as soon as possible and restore my strength. Otherwise, the practice tomorrow morning will still be very difficult like today."

Immediately doing what he said, An Sheng immediately took out his mobile phone, and sent a message about the ball in the wechat group of golfers they had just formed.

But what made him depressed was that although many people replied to him, none of them had time to practice with him.

However, he can also understand. After all, these golfers in the group are basically middle-aged uncles, and they are usually very busy. Even after work, don't they still have to take care of their families?

In desperation, Ansheng planned to practice ball alone, but when packing his things, he suddenly remembered a person, and without thinking much, he called him directly.

"Hello, who are you?"

"Uncle Song, I'm An Sheng, I played with you before."

"..."

"It's you, why, want to ask me to play ball?"

Song Jinhui on the other end of the phone was obviously a little surprised. He was stunned for a moment before replying.

"Yes, Uncle Song, are you free now?"

"Okay, you go to the community court first, I will be there in a while."

"okay!"

After finally getting an appointment, An Sheng didn't dare to delay, and rushed to the stadium in a hurry. Seeing that Song Jinhui hadn't arrived yet, he started practicing on his own.

But he waited and waited for almost half an hour, but Song Jinhui hadn't arrived yet.

An Sheng was a little anxious and wanted to call him, but he picked up the phone, and when he was about to dial, he put it down again.

"Forget it, I think he must be delayed by something, so let's not bother him." An Sheng thought so.

In addition, An Sheng at this time has actually come to his senses. He is now in the embarrassing stage of a "novice", and he can't even do the basic return of the ball well. Play.

In this way, it may be better for him not to come.

After figuring this out, An Sheng no longer expected it, and continued to practice on his own, but at this moment, Song Jinhui came.

"Xiao An, I'm sorry, I was delayed by something, and I'm late."

Song Jinhui ran over in a hurry, already sweating, and he didn't intend to procrastinate on purpose, otherwise he didn't need to trot all the way here.

It can be seen that he came, but An Sheng was a little embarrassed. After thinking about it, he still confessed directly, and honestly explained to him that he became unable to play because of the change of racket.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Song Jinhui's face darkened, and he was obviously a little unhappy.

"Forget it, since you're here, I'll be your training partner for once."

To An Sheng's surprise, Song Jinhui didn't turn around and leave, but chose to stay. This was quite a surprise for An Sheng.

At the beginning of the training, An Sheng was still a bit scrupulous, but after half an hour, seeing that Song Jinhui didn't show any signs of impatience, he was relieved, and immediately devoted himself to the training.

As time passed by, An Sheng felt very tired.

This is actually as it should be, after all, he has been training for a whole day, and no one can bear such a large amount of exercise.

However, Ansheng did not stop there. In addition to his urgent need to adapt to the new racket and regain his strength, more importantly, he already had a premonition that he was about to succeed.

The fact is also true, under An Sheng's unremitting persistence, and after more than an hour of hard practice, he finally got used to his new racket.

And his strength has also been restored, and because of the addition of a professional racket, his strength is obviously stronger than before.

"It's finally done!"

An Sheng, who was already exhausted, finally couldn't hold on after achieving his goal, and lay down on the ground with a smile.

And An Sheng probably didn't expect that Song Jinhui, who was at the other end of the field, let out a big sigh of relief after seeing him stop at this time, because if he continued, he might not be able to hold on.

In fact, Song Jinhui felt very tired as early as more than an hour ago. After all, at his age, his physical strength was not as good as that of young people.

He wanted to ask for a break several times, but when he saw that An Sheng was still practicing meticulously, he was a little unable to speak. This was to support him and persist until now, which was really embarrassing for him.

"Hehe, it's nice to be young!"

Seeing An Sheng lying on the ground without any image, Song Jinhui couldn't help but sigh with emotion, then walked to the sidelines to get two bottles of mineral water, also came to An Sheng's position, and sat down directly on the ground.

"Drink some water."

An Sheng closed his eyes and shook his head.

But for some reason, An Sheng suddenly wanted to chat with him and hear his opinion.

"Uncle Song, do you think I can become a professional tennis player?" An Sheng suddenly sat up, looked at Song Jinhui, and asked seriously.

"Ah!"

Song Jinhui laughed as soon as he heard it, but did not reply clearly.

"Uncle, you must also think that I can't do it, right?"

"It's not so absolute, but to be honest, I don't think you have much hope." Song Jinhui didn't flatter him on purpose, nor did he encourage him for no reason, but told the truth.

"it is as expected."

An Sheng was not disappointed, because the answer was indeed obvious, but after he heard it, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

And then, he also briefly told Song Jinhui about Xia Yutong.

"That's why you trained so hard today to prove it to her?" Song Jinhui asked with a smile after listening.

"No, Uncle Song, I didn't want to prove it to her. In fact, I just met her. Of course, I don't need her approval, but I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart."

"Hehe, this is very normal. No matter who you are, if you are not favored by others, you will always feel uncomfortable."

"Then what should I do to get rid of that uncomfortable feeling? Should I just ignore them?"

"Xiao An, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you not to be influenced by other people, right? Otherwise, you won't feel uncomfortable now. It's not just you, I think, as long as you are not the kind of person who is particularly closed-off, it will be inevitable be influenced by other perceptions."

"so what should I do?"

"It's very simple, just prove it to them. As long as you succeed, they will naturally shut up."

"But I don't want to prove it to them. I have nothing to do with them. Why do I have to prove it to them?"

This is also a point where An Sheng feels very uncomfortable and contradictory. He feels that whether he can achieve his goal is his own business. What right do others have to dictate, but he still cannot ignore the other party, making himself instead It's very upset.

"Then to put it another way, you can prove it to yourself!"

"It's the goal you set yourself. Don't you need to prove to yourself that you have the ability to do it? If you can't do it, why don't you give up as soon as possible?"

"Prove it to yourself?"

An Sheng repeated a sentence subconsciously, and suddenly, he suddenly realized that the discomfort in his heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.

In the end, he made an effort for himself, and found a reason that he could accept, and it was a very good reason. He wanted to prove to himself that he could do it!
