Mr. Incompetent Bodyguard

In the dressing room, Ji Jin straightened his back, spread his hands, and stood like a clothes hanger.There are three or four people busy around him at the same time: the make-up artist is doing the final touch-ups for his makeup, the hair stylist is helping him with the curvature of his bangs, and the stylist is arranging the accessories on his clothes.

The entire backstage was as lively as a market, with people constantly coming in and out.People hurriedly yelled and shouted, completing their work links.

Su An ran over after docking with the organizer, anxiously urging: "Hurry up, the show will start in the last 5 minutes!"

Ji Jin has not experienced this kind of war-like work rhythm for three years.This feeling was both familiar and strange, which made it difficult for him to adapt.His ears were filled with loud voices, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether the source of the sound came from the backstage staff or the eager audience outside.

"Not yet? Hurry up and hurry up!" Su An urged again.

Boom boom boom... da da da...

The sound of messy footsteps and the collision of various props seemed to be the prelude to the drumbeat, and his heartbeat unconsciously began to follow this extremely fast rhythm.

nervous.sweat.

The more hectic, the harder it is for Ji Jin to concentrate.His thoughts began to wander.He was worried whether the audience outside was full?I don't know how Shen Qingyu's game is going?Will you forget the words when you sing for a while?If today's performance fails, will the performance continue tomorrow...

"Fixed? Hurry up, the band above is ready!"

Su An and a large group of staff surrounded Ji Jin. Ji Jin couldn't even tell whether it was he who opened his legs or was pushed away by someone. When he came back to his senses, he was already standing on the ground on the lifting platform.Soon he will be promoted and appear in front of all the audience.

nervous.Even more nervous.

Why isn't Shen Qingyu here?If Shen Qingyu was here, there might be a way to relieve his tension and anxiety.But now no one noticed his emotions.

He began to want to run away.

The noise around him gradually died down.The staff who were arguing and assigning tasks just now suddenly became quiet.They didn't even breathe lightly, and only gestured and looked at each other to signal to each other.

After half a minute.

"Boom!"

The first drum beat.Immediately afterwards, the voice of guitar and bass joined together.In the darkness above, the accompaniment orchestra began to perform the prelude.

The foot lifting platform vibrated for a moment, and then began to lift up.In the darkness, no one could see what Ji Jin's expression was.

When the lifting platform was running halfway, with a snap, the dazzling spotlights above the stage came down from all directions, making Ji Jin's figure unreservedly appear in front of everyone.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Facing countless cameras, Ji Jin kept his head down and remained motionless.Until the lifting platform came to a complete stop, the accompaniment sound was also paused.

The screams of the audience gradually died down, and they waited with bated breath.

Da da da.

Counting the beat, Ji Jin stepped on a few dance steps, quickly raised his eyes, and finally revealed his face.The photographer who had been prepared for a long time immediately switched the lens, and a close-up of his expression appeared on the large screens on both sides.I saw the expression on his face confident, relaxed, with a confident smile.

——When the music sounded, all the anxiety and distracting thoughts in his heart disappeared miraculously.Music awakened the sleeping cells in his body, and music injected him with strength.

At the same time, the dance fireworks that had been arranged before him exploded brilliantly behind him, setting off the opening atmosphere to the extreme!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa then!"

Today, the king returns!

……

Inside the octagonal cage, the two boxers fought fiercely.

Although Ji Jin was not present today, Shen Qingyu's relatives and friends filled the seats reserved for relatives and friends by the organizer, and many people came to watch by buying their own tickets.Those coaches who have brought him up since he was a child, his colleagues in the club, his past brothers, and even many opponents who have played against him have come to witness this crucial game for him.

Outside the octagonal cage, the cheers for Shen Qingyu continued for a long time.

This time Shen Qingyu's opponent, the defending champion Ye Fugeni, is a master wrestler.It is said that his parents were hunters who once caught a bear and kept it in the backyard. He used that bear to practice wrestling since he was a child.Later, he studied orthodox Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for many years, thus possessing a strong fighting ability.

In the arena of mixed martial arts, there are people from all schools of martial arts. It stands to reason that there is no first in literature and second in martial arts. There is no "strongest" martial art in the world.But if you interview all standing masters and ask them which style of opponent they hate to compete with most, most of them will answer "Jiu-jitsu master".

Since Shen Qingyu's professional career, although he has met many players with Jiu-Jitsu background, none of them has such strong control ability as Ye Fugeni.So far, Evgeny's professional record is 20 wins and 20 losses, and he is an absolute rival!

On the ring, Li Nian asked his father worriedly: "Dad, do you think Brother Xiaoyu can handle this guy?"

Li Rongguang didn't answer directly, and followed the figures on the stage with his eyes: "I just heard today that just last month, your Brother Xiaoyu already got a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu."

"Really?" Li Nian widened his eyes in shock. "I remember that few people who have learned jujitsu from a junior high school can get it. It seems that there are only a dozen people in China? Is Brother Xiaoyu so awesome?!"

"Of course it's true." Li Rongguang was quite proud, "Can the apprentice I brought out not be amazing?"

On the ring, Yevgeny suddenly made a feint of bending over.Just when everyone thought he was going to hug and wrestle, he straightened up and punched Shen Qingyu's chin with an uppercut!

Unfortunately, this punch failed to succeed.His uppercut directly hit Shen Qingyu's hard elbow, even with the protection of gloves, his phalanges were almost numb with pain.

A look of astonishment flashed in Yevgeny's eyes.

Shen Qingyu seized this opportunity and counterattacked with a straight punch, hitting Yevgeni on the bridge of the nose, causing Yevgeni's nose to bleed instantly!

You must know that most of the masters of the standing department "fear" the masters of the jujitsu department, because jujitsu players not only have strong control ability, but also have a strong deterrent effect.Standing players are used to putting their hands on both sides of their cheeks to prevent their opponents from attacking their jaws; but if they want to prevent falls, their hands must be placed on their waists, so that they can catch the opponent's hands holding their thighs in time.Therefore, when standing players face jujitsu players, they often act as if they don’t know where to put their hands, and they are very indecisive. However, jujitsu masters don’t even need to work hard to bring their opponents down, they only need to do a hug and wrestle The fake action tricked the opponent to release the arm of the face shield, and then a punch aimed at the chin can quickly end the game.

This was the trick Yevgeny wanted to use just now, but Shen Qingyu didn't fall for his trick - if it was three years ago, he would definitely fall for this trick.Because he has fear in his heart and scruples in his actions.But now, strength has given him enough confidence, and he no longer has any shortcomings.

Three years of experience made him a true all-around fighter.He has outstanding skills, rich experience, and a good grasp of the opponent's mentality.

"Admit defeat." Shen Qingyu took advantage and continued to add fuel to the flames, "I'm not as weak as a Russian bear."

Yevgeny's eyes lit up with raging anger.

……

The spotlights on the stage went out, and the elevator slowly descended, sending Ji Jin backstage.

A group of staff came up again in an instant, handing water, wiping sweat, and applying makeup.

"How do you feel? Can you bear it?" Su An was the one who wiped his sweat.

Ji Jin didn't bother to say anything, just nodded.He opened his arms like a coat hanger again, and the costumer came to help him take off his coat and change his costume, and the hairstylist came to help him respray his hair.

At this time, the progress of the concert was more than halfway through, and now it was the guests he invited to help to perform on the stage, so that he could have a few minutes of intermission.

His body was being manipulated by stylists and he couldn't look at his phone, so he asked Su An, "What time is it?"

Su An glanced at his watch: "It's almost eight forty."

"Help me check my phone," Ji Jin said, "Is there any news about Shen Qingyu?"

"Uh, I'm afraid of losing your personal belongings, so I put them all back in the car."

"..." Ji Jin was at a loss for words and could only say, "Then help me see if he has finished playing? Has the result come out?"

Su An quickly took out the phone.However, the background signal in the dressing room was extremely poor, and the guests on the stage had almost finished singing a song, and she hadn't opened a page yet.The staff had already come to urge her, so Ji Jin had no choice but to give up.

……

Ten p.m.

Many parts of the city have quieted down, and the streets have become less crowded, but the stadium is still in full swing.

After a vigorous song and dance performance, Ji Jin was drenched in sweat.Tired to the extreme, he didn't feel tired, and felt a hearty pleasure.

The backup dancers from the previous song left the stage one after another, leaving only Ji Jin and the accompanying band on the stage.The fans in the audience realized that the end was drawing to a close, and immediately shouted "Encore".

Ji Jin looked around the front row of the auditorium, but still did not see Shen Qingyu, so he frowned slightly: Is his game over?Why haven't you come yet?Is it too late to come here, or is there some other reason?

After a while, Ji Jin withdrew his gaze and made a palm down motion towards the audience.The fans understood his gestures and quickly fell silent.

Ji Jin supported Li Mai and said, "According to the arrangement, the next song will be the last song tonight..."

Before he finished speaking, the audience immediately shouted.

"Don't end!!" "Sing a few more songs!" "Encore, encore, encore!"

Ji Jin made another move to make everyone boo, but the sound of encores continued for a long time.

Ji Jin could only say: "Before singing the last song, I hope everyone can give me a few minutes, I have something to say."

Only then did the audience gradually quiet down.

Ji Jin licked his lips, collected his thoughts, and then slowly said: "First of all, I want to thank all the fans and friends who came here today. You don't know that after I came to the stage today, I saw that the audience was really full. How happy I was when I found someone. I haven’t taken a job for almost three years. So when the company told me to help me arrange a comeback concert, I was very worried. I was afraid that I would take too long If I didn't come out, no one would come to see my performance..."

"How is it possible?!" "We are all willing!" "Ji Jin, I love you!!!"

The fans in the audience responded loudly, and soon, people began to call Ji Jin's name in unison.

Looking at the flickering lights, banners and fluorescent sticks in the audience, Ji Jin couldn't help but feel his nose sore.He let go of Li Mai and bowed deeply to the audience.

"Thank you, thank you."

The support from the audience lasted for a long time.

After a while, he went on to say: "Secondly, I want to take this opportunity to thank my agency and all my staff. They have worked very hard to prepare this performance. In order to be able to do this important concert well , I made a lot of requests, and they all - helped me fulfill my wish."

"I know, in fact, I am not a very easy person to get along with. I have a bad temper and a very irritable personality. But there are still many people who have never left me for so many years. I am really grateful."

There was a warm applause from the audience, which was given to all the staff.

Ji Jin looked at the auditorium in front of him again.He wanted to let that person hear what he was going to say next, but unfortunately, that person still didn't show up.

He paused for a while, then spoke again: "Finally, I would like to thank the most important and special...friend to me."

Sensitive fans already guessed who he wanted to talk about. Someone wanted to scream excitedly, but suppressed the scream back into the chest cavity.

"I think everyone knows that I suffered from bipolar disorder before. I don't want to be brave. I want to say that this illness is actually very hard, really hard. It's so hard...I thought about giving up, and more than once want to give up."

"But fortunately, I met that person."

"He accompanied me and encouraged me in my darkest time. Before I met him, I never knew that there could be such a gentle person in the world. He will always treat me with the greatest patience and listen to my useless nonsense , tolerate my unreasonable actions..."

Speaking of this, Ji Jin choked up a little.The sympathetic audience under the stage also had red eyes.

"More importantly, he is not only gentle, he is also a very strong person. Life has given him a lot of setbacks, but he will never be knocked down, let alone give up easily. I saw how he tried his best Going all out to fulfill his dream, he set a good example for me, and made me discover that many things in the world are not that difficult, as long as you persist, there will be rewards."

"So, I will work harder in the future, trying to become a better person, and trying to be a role model and motivation for others." Ji Jin adjusted his mood and smiled again, "The last song tonight, I want to send To all of you."

Amid the excited cheers, Ji Jin picked up the guitar.The band played together, and he began to sing softly.

"The world is frozen/crying and laughing are the same/

Who is not naked and empty-handed/Come to carry a century of sorrow/

Destiny makes people kneel and bow their heads / also teaches people to hold their heads bravely /

The most difficult thing to comprehend is /the preciousness of being based on the world/

People have quenched love and attachment/

People have the ignorance of not being afraid to scrape their bones/

People have persistence without seeking results/

There is also a promise passed down by tens of thousands of mouths/

There will be a time when the leaves of the phoenix tree will wither / There will also be a time when the flowering period will flourish again /

Depend on each other in the mortal world/

After the ups and downs and being separated / embrace each other again /”

……

……

The encore sound gradually extinguished after reaching a climax, and the reluctant crowd lingered for a long time before finally leaving.

Backstage at the performance, Ji Jin quickly changed his clothes and couldn't wait to go to the car to get his mobile phone.It was Su An who was beside him who suddenly picked up the phone.

"What? You're already here?...Then you go straight to the parking lot."

After hanging up the phone, Su An turned to Ji Jin: "It's Xiaoyu's call, he's already arrived, I asked him to meet in the parking lot."

Ji Jin almost ran all the way to the parking lot.

Shen Qingyu was already waiting by his nanny car.

Because he was afraid that there would be paparazzi squatting in the parking lot, Ji Jin restrained himself and waited until he got into the car and closed the door before hugging Shen Qingyu forcefully in the car.

"Why are you here now? Has today's game been played for so long?"

"No." Shen Qingyu hugged him back, "I finished playing in one round today. But after the game, Brother Wang took me to meet a very important person, so I was late."

He added: "Actually, I entered the stage when you sang the penultimate song. I heard everything you said on stage."

Ji Jin's eyes widened in surprise: "You entered the arena? Then why didn't I see you in the auditorium?"

"When I came in, the audience was so excited that they all stood up and blocked the way. I couldn't get through, thinking that it was almost over anyway, so I simply stood in the back row and watched."

Ji Jin understood.

Shen Qingyu pinched his nose with a smile: "Are you confessing your love to me in front of more than 1 people today? I'm so embarrassed to praise you."

He said embarrassing words, but his whole body was full of vigor, and there were stars in his eyes.

Before Ji Jin asked, he knew the result of tonight's game just by looking at his expression: "Did you win the world championship tonight?"

Shen Qingyu did not answer, opened his schoolbag, and took out a pair of heavy gold belts from it—this is the boxing champion gold belt representing the Warrior Glory Cup World Champion.

"Wow!!!" Ji Jin was blinded by the golden light.He took the gold belt and found that it was so heavy that he could barely hold it, "Is it made of real gold?"

"Gold-plated. Rewards are mainly bonuses."

Ji Jin said "Oh", still looking carefully at the belt representing honor, and touching it carefully - this is the testimony of honor that Shen Qingyu spent three years of sweat in exchange for, even if it is gold-plated, it is more precious than real gold .

It took a long time before he returned the golden belt to Shen Qingyu: "You just said that you finished playing in one round today? Did it go well?"

"It went very smoothly, and there must have been a bit of luck. I irritated my opponent and disrupted his rhythm. As soon as he made an opening, I caught him and quickly KO."

"How did you provoke him?"

"I insulted the Russian bear."

"?"

Shen Qingyu and Ji Jin described the process of tonight's game, and Ji Jin's blood was surging with a few words.Shen Qingyu said again: "Do you know who Wang Haiyang took me to meet after the game?"

"Who?"

"The executive of the UFC organizing committee, he also came to see my match today. The club has not told me for fear of putting too much pressure on me. They have already negotiated last month. As long as I win the gold belt tonight, UFC will sign with me."

Ji Jin was surprised: "UFC contract? Are you going to fight UFC?"

"Ah."

UFC is a hall-level event of mixed martial arts, and it is the event most yearned for by MMA fighters all over the world. UFC's threshold is very high. In the past two years, in order to obtain the Chinese market, it has begun to sign Chinese fighters one after another.Those who can be selected by them not only have absolute strength, but also are outstanding in all aspects.After joining UFC, Shen Qingyu will be able to gain world-class attention!

Ji Jin was happy for Shen Qingyu, but also worried: Shen Qingyu's opponents will become stronger in the future, so wouldn't he be more likely to be injured?

"The dream you said before was to win the world championship. I thought you planned to retire after you got it..."

"I am in very good shape now, and I am still on the rise. One world championship is not enough, I want to win more. I have thought about it, and my next goal is the UFC lightweight championship. After I win it, I can still fight If so, I can go up and challenge for the welterweight and middleweight gold belts. That will be more difficult."

Ji Jin was taken aback: "Why does it sound like there is no bottom line?"

Shen Qingyu smiled.He embraced Ji Jin and placed a kiss on his cheek: "As long as I still have the strength, I want to keep fighting for the cause I love. This makes me very happy... Besides, every full stop is the beginning of a new paragraph Well."

Ji Jin was taken aback by what he said, nodded, and couldn't help complaining: "You are an athlete, how can you say such polite words?"

"Ha ha……"

The night scene outside the car window continued to reverse, and the car moved forward all the way, driving towards their home.
