It's better to fall in love with an old enemy

The United States has always demonstrated their importance to human rights everywhere.A room of tens of square meters in the dormitory of the Olympic Village can be forcibly separated into two bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom, so as to preserve personal space to the greatest extent and also take care of social needs that may arise.

Xiao Chengnei also left a small night light for Xiyuan Temple in the small living room, of course he was already fast asleep in his bedroom.It was already 01:30 in the morning when Xiyuan Temple returned to the dormitory, Xiao Cheng naturally wouldn't wait for him so late.

Xiyuan Temple took a closer look and saw a cardboard box under the night light, with a note pressed under the box.Only then did he realize that Xiaocheng was not waiting for him alone under this lamp.

"ToMySWEETY: According to the usual virtues of the testing team, they will definitely not let you back too early. You will definitely be hungry when you come back, so I asked Xiao Chengnei to help me bring this sandwich to you. I took it from the athlete's restaurant, and Xiao Ye also Staring at me from the side. Although I know you trust me very much, but the game is about to start, there is nothing wrong with Ono to be careful. Remember to eat before going to bed, good night. FromyourloverD.W."

Under the English message left by Dylan, Xiao Cheng also quietly left a few words. "I think you should trust me too. I never opened the lid! Bring it up as it is, and put it here as it is!"

Xiyuan Temple's calmness and calmness throughout the day collapsed under the still-on nightlight in the small living room.He is used to solving sudden problems rationally, which makes him basically not show his emotions in front of others. It seems that all problems can be properly handled by him and passed smoothly.

He has seen many ice fans, media people, and even players and coaches in the circle describe him as Japanese tea, the snow of Mount Fuji, tall and straight bamboo, fresh wind, quiet water... Xiyuan Temple He does not reject these literary and artistic descriptions, and he admits that these indeed represent a part of his character.But sometimes he always feels that these images, which often represent aloofness, are a little too cold, so that he begins to reflect on whether he is too cold in the eyes of others.

Xiyuan Temple knew that he was really not like this.The team doctor tried his best to express his gratitude and admiration to Xiyuan Temple when he was doing other things with him in front of the player's building area. After all, it is really rare for a player to be so calm and composed in front of the excitement/drug testing team.At the end, the team doctor said to him: "Speaking of which, since you entered the adult group, I have worked with you for so long, I really don't think I have seen you get angry."

Xiyuan Temple was dumbfounded, and finally responded with a polite thank you.

It's not that he hasn't been angry.As a child, he was locked in a locker, smashed with skates, and skated.He also went to the coach at the time or the staff in charge of player coordination angrily, but they were all fooled by them.Many times he went home holding his breath, and when he saw his mother, he rushed over and cried loudly.Michiko never comforts her son in a hurry, or scolds those who bully him with him.Michiko gave him enough time to vent his emotions, and then helped him figure out how to deal with these things and how to get rid of these people.

Gradually, Xiyuan Temple knew that making himself stronger was the best way.He won gold medals one after another, and the club valued him more and more, and those children with bad eyes also left the club one by one.Afterwards, Xiyuan Temple was also excavated by Ono Matsudaira, which propped up the sky.

Childhood experience made Xiyuansi develop the habit of thinking before venting when he encounters difficulties, but the higher he went, the fewer and fewer people could listen to him vent, and he began to learn to digest his emotions by himself.Ono once talked about Xiyuan Temple with his friends. He said that his apprentice was lonely and courageous.Xiyuan Temple didn't know that the coach had commented on him like this, otherwise he might have nodded in agreement.

The sandwich that Dylan helped him with was not big, and Xiyuan Temple finished it in three or two bites.He lay in bed unable to sleep.The darkness in the early morning is the thickest, and the surroundings are also the most silent, with no sound at all.Xiyuan Temple felt that he was overwhelmed, his eyes were dry and his nasal cavity was sore.He knew the day was terribly unfair, and he knew why it was unfair, but he still couldn't bring himself to accept it.

Xiyuan Temple turned over and sat up, took the mobile phone, found Dylan's number from the address book, and wanted to call him.But his finger was hanging on the dial button, he hesitated for a long time and did not press it.He flipped through the address book from the beginning to the end, and found that his life was really cramped. At this time, his friends were either preparing for the competition in the Olympic Village, or they were in the same circle of ice and snow events. There are no friends who are worried about disturbing the opponent's preparation status.

Night is the time when you are most prone to cranky thoughts.Xiyuan Temple feels that he is proving this point by himself.He calculated the time difference with the remaining slivers of reason, and made a call to Japan across the ocean.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Michiko Xiyuanji had just checked the project plan of a classical drama experimental club in the theater when she received a call from her son.

Michiko just said "Hello", and heard sobbing and uncontrollable crying from the phone.She worked hard to piece together the voice on the phone, and finally spelled out a complete sentence.

"Mom, I really miss him."

Michiko, who was more calm than her son, finally became flustered.

The next afternoon, when Xiyuansi appeared on the ice rink at Hele training before the game, everyone who had seen him the day before could see that he was visibly haggard.

But Xiyuan Temple is haggard and haggard, and Hele's state is not greatly reduced at all.He didn't go through every move when he was having fun. Axel's four-point jump around Sahov's four-point jump, plus a single jump around the hook, three sets of jumps were confirmed. , interspersed in the middle is a short section of squatting and spinning that is prone to problems with the position of the legs and a short section of grading footwork that is easy to confuse with the blade under the feet.There is nothing wrong with the Hele in Xiyuan Temple.

Fans who bought OP tickets gave Xiyuan Temple the warmest applause from the audience.They didn't know what happened to this fairy the day before, all they could see was his reckless appearance on the ice.

Ono Matsuhei was a little uneasy.Xiyuan Temple's handling of jumping in, sliding out, and footwork connection is not as detailed as in previous training.Although these tiny details do not affect the integrity of the program, the level of sophistication will still be reduced by half a point, and Xiyuan Temple will basically not allow itself to do so.

Xiyuan Temple finished his fun part, skating along the outer circle of the ice rink twice to adjust his breathing rhythm, and returned to coach Ono to drink water and rest.

Ono tentatively asked, "How many hours did you sleep last night?"

"I didn't sleep all night."

Ono looked disapproving.

"It's not all because of what happened yesterday, but because of yesterday, all the emotions seemed to explode," Xiyuan Temple touched the edge of the cup cover with his fingertips, and said in a self-deprecating manner, "Before coming to Pittsburgh, there were seniors who followed me. I said that the Olympic Games is sacred, but sometimes it is like a black hole, negative emotions will be magnified by it, be careful not to be swallowed by it. I didn’t take it seriously at the time, but now it seems to have come true. I still don’t have what I imagined So powerful."

"Then how do you feel now? I heard that each event group has a professional team of psychological counseling. I can go and ask for you."

"No, I'm in a good mood now. It's a little embarrassing to say it, you might think I'm a child," Xiyuan Temple pursed his lips and smiled, "I called my mother in the early morning and cried for a while. field."

Hearing what he said, Ono felt relieved: "I was a little worried that you would have to bear it by yourself again. Fortunately, you were released in advance. If you hit the two days of the competition head-on, you might really have a big problem. .”

In the field broadcast, the announcer announced the name of Dylan White. He drew lots and got the last place in the last group, and the OP also played last.There were still the most local audience in the auditorium, and there was another wave of cheers.

Xiyuan Temple put down the water glass, and moved the soles of his feet twice: "I'll go there two more times."

"Actually, it's okay for you to recharge your batteries a little bit." Ono suddenly said this in an incongruous way.Xiyuan Temple has slipped away, I don't know if he heard this sentence.

Compared with other competitions, the Olympic Games leave more time for the players to train together before the competition, public and non-public, grouped by country and intercontinental group by lottery, media and audience are allowed to enter the stadium Yes... All kinds of pre-game training can last for several days.The preparation status of the players can be seen at a glance.

Whether it is due to competition or personal relationship, Xiyuan Temple pays special attention to Dylan's status.Dylan is playing together, "Out of Africa: Clarinet Concerto in A Major", Mozart's work.Both Xiyuan Temple and Di Lan himself liked this work very much.Xiyuan Temple can almost remember every technical movement and trajectory of Dylan in this short program.He took advantage of this last chance to have fun together, while skating to maintain his skating sense, while sneaking to the best spot to observe Dylan's movements.

With his experience of suddenly losing control, Xiyuan Temple began to worry about Dylan.He was under much more pressure this time around.

Dylan has two alternative compositions for the short program. The composition submitted to the referee team and the ISU official website is a four-week composition for Axel, and the other is a three-week composition for Axel.

The skating at the beginning was omitted by Dylan, and he went straight to point 4A with two steps on the ice.He slid out the last few seconds of this short sequence of footwork to the music.The outer edge of the left foot helps to slide, and the forward kick of the right leg borrows strength.Xiyuan Temple's heart tightened suddenly.Dylan hesitated at the moment of jumping.

The OP's 4A deposit week turned around.

If Xiyuan Temple had to give him any advice, he wouldn't think Dylan's 4A in the short program was a good idea.Dylan himself is not considered a player who wins entirely by technical difficulty.There is no room for mistakes in every movement in the short program, let alone the A jump with only one chance.

It's a pity that in this competition, Xiyuan Temple couldn't give him any advice on the composition of the program.

At the end of the public training, Xiyuan Temple took a few steps back and thoughtfully followed the US team.When passing by the bathroom of the arena, Dylan informed his companions, and then turned in.Xiyuan Temple went back and forth in his head a few times, and followed behind.

There was no one else in the bathroom, and Xiyuan Temple could only hear the sound of the faucet spitting out water.When he turned the corner, he saw Dylan propping the sink with both hands, his head bowed, and the hair on his forehead was dripping continuously.

"Hey." Xiyuan Temple called out to him.

Dylan heard a familiar voice, raised his head suddenly, and turned to face him.

Xiyuan Temple walked towards him, and when he was about to approach, he suddenly accelerated.He slammed himself into Dylan's arms.

"Let's secretly recharge."

The author has something to say:

I don’t know if you have experienced insomnia in the middle of the night. If you are facing a particularly serious matter, you will really think wildly and get deeper and deeper.I have had similar feelings once or twice, but I can still fall asleep at that time, but I also deal with those things in my dream when I fall asleep (cover my face)

PS: Why is Ms. Michiko in a hurry? According to the special message sent back by Xiyuanji's father: this lady thought her son was going to break up with her boyfriend.
