[Short track speed skating] From academic master to Winter Olympic champion

At that time, his mother was gesturing on him with a sweater, when someone beside him suddenly called his name: "Gu Ran, is that you?"

Gu Ran turned her head and saw that it was a young lady who was enthusiastically waving to him: "Come on!"

Gu Ran nodded, smiled and said thank you.

Xu Mei asked him, "Do you know him?"

Gu Ran said, "I don't know."

"That……"

Gu Ran pushed her to go out: "You don't look online, your son also has fans now, and many people like me."

Hearing that many people liked him, Xu Mei was quite happy: "I often saw you on short videos during this period, and I thought it was because I always liked those videos about you, so I always gave I recommend videos about you."

Having said that, Xu Mei's expression moved, and before Gu Ran had time to ask, two more girls came over and asked him if they could take a photo.

It's okay to take a photo together, Gu Ran readily agreed, and Xu Mei also acted as the photographer.

Gu Ran laughed and said, "I never thought that one day I would be asked to take a group photo when I was walking on the street."

Xu Mei dragged him into a coffee shop. Gu Ran used to like to drink iced Americano, but now he only ordered a cup of freshly squeezed juice.

The World Anti-Doping Organization has strict regulations on the content of caffeine in an athlete's urine, which should not exceed 12 micrograms per milliliter, which is equivalent to 6-8 cups in one breath. It is not a big problem for him to drink a cup.

It's just that Gu Ran has strict requirements on himself in terms of diet, he will not touch any risky food.

The mother and son chatted for a while, and Xu Mei was concerned about her son's life, training and study recently.Gu Ran is also concerned about the health of her grandparents and grandparents.

Xu Mei suddenly asked Gu Ran: "Discuss with your coach, can you not be interviewed in the future?"

Gu Ran said: "Our coach doesn't care about this matter, we have a staff dedicated to this aspect, and the team leader usually informs us."

Xu Mei said again: "Then discuss it with your team leader."

"Mom!" Gu Ran laughed, "Why do you suddenly care about this? We have regulations, we must cooperate with post-match interviews, and we have training on how to answer questions."

Xu Mei glared at him: "Then you still say that in front of the reporter. Mom feels very sad when she sees some people's evaluation of you."

It was only then that Gu Ran suddenly realized that although the majority of people praised him online, it was inevitable that some of them were savages and made some strange remarks.

As a mother, Xu Mei was naturally happy to read those words that praised her son in the same way.She would gladly accept some kind reminders.

However, what really made her hard to let go were those malicious comments.She didn't know why, but Gu Ran won the gold medal, which was considered a glory for the country.He was repeatedly violated by his opponents on the field, and if he made an emotional comment in front of the media, he would be maliciously misinterpreted by these people.

His son is not yet 16 years old, and he is a minor. Since he was a child, he has never been full of praise when he saw him. Why should he be maliciously evaluated by these people?

Gu Ran patted the back of her mother's hand: "Mom, it's okay, don't take those comments to heart. These people are like this. They like to magnify and fabricate other people's shortcomings and attack them."

"But my mother was very sad when she saw the remarks that attacked you."

Gu Ran smiled and said, "Then don't read it."

Xu Mei asked: "You saw it too, didn't you?"

Gu Ran nodded: "I've seen some."

"Then tell mom, do you feel wronged?"

Gu Ran shook her head: "Not at all. I know exactly what I want, and my goal is to win the Winter Olympics. These unimportant people and things can't affect me at all."

Over the years, their mother and son have always been together less and more often. At some point, Xu Mei realized that her son was no longer the little brat who asked him to do something by himself and asked for pocket money.

He grew taller and grew up, where he couldn't see.Although she still has a hippie smiling face at ordinary times, she is well-behaved and can act like a baby.But the lofty belief of "winning glory for the motherland and the nation" has long been rooted in his heart and cannot be shaken.

Gu Ran still had to go to class, and didn't have much time to spend with her parents. Gu Changfeng and Xu Mei were relieved to see their son was healthy, and went back after staying in Beijing for two days.

In April, it is the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and it is also around the Ching Ming Festival, which is just right for outings.

Athletes just entered the offseason, came back from a long vacation, and just started recovery training.

Cheng Sen and Director Zhang from the figure skating side figured it out, it was all training anyway, and taking advantage of the good weather, they took these kids out to climb mountains as physical exercises.

In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the team members, they also made a special trip to change the name that sounds exciting-spring outing.

They also took great pains to choose a route that is very suitable for hiking.During this period, there are cement roads, dirt roads, asphalt roads, step roads, gravel roads, big stone roads, and mountain climbing.

As soon as Chi Lang heard the word "traveling on foot", he was very excited, feeling as thrilling and exciting as crossing Lop Nur or the no-man's land in Hoh Xil.

Gu Ran also told him a supernatural story about the Pisces jade pendant, and Chi Dali came to his room that night with a pillow and quilt in his arms, strongly requesting to sleep with him.

Gu Ran let him sleep on the floor, and Chi Lang threw his quilt directly on the bed.A 1.2-meter single bed is just right for one person, but it is very cramped for two people.

He insisted on squeezing together, but Gu Ran had no choice.However, when the lights were turned off, Chi Lang became dishonest, and kept asking Gu Ran about the follow-up of that story, and strongly urged Gu Ran to tell him another one.

Really, the more cowardly you are, the more you have to listen.Gu Ran wished he could kick him under the bed, and finally took his mobile phone and earphones, and found him a series of audio novels about tomb robbery, and asked him to listen to it himself.

Sleeping until midnight, suddenly a hairy head touched his back, and his arms were still tightly wrapped around his waist.

Gu Ran kicked over in a daze: "Let go, I'm sweating!"

Chi Lang said: "Wow! That blood corpse is so scary, I'm afraid."

"..."

Gu Ran was so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open, so she could only let him use herself as a pillow.

There was no need for morning exercises the next day, and Gu Ran didn't open his eyes until after seven o'clock. He was still woken up by the heat, and the T-shirt he wore as pajamas was soaked.

Opening his eyes, he saw that the quilt Chi Lang rolled to the ground together. Gu Ran recalled, he didn't know whether he was kicked down by himself, or the bed was too narrow and he rolled down by himself.

Gu Ran hurriedly woke him up: "Go back and wash and change clothes. We have to set off at eight o'clock and have to go down for breakfast."

After he finished speaking, he went into the bathroom by himself, tidied himself up as quickly as possible, and when he came out, he found that Chi Lang had already moved to the bed, sleeping like a dead pig.

Gu Ran went up and patted him awake without saying a word, Chi Lang suddenly sat up from the bed, gasping for breath: "I dreamed that I was chased by two zongzi for a long distance."

Gu Ran said: "The Ching Ming Festival is not the Dragon Boat Festival. Today, the cafeteria eats Qingtuan instead of Zongzi."

It was only after I finished speaking that I realized, no, what I found for him last night was a novel about tomb robbers.

When the two left the room, they met Liang Kexin in the corridor. The latter looked at them with a surprised face: "You two...shouldn't have slept together last night."

Chi Lang wanted to go back to his own room to wash and change clothes, so he replied casually: "Yes, I slept with him last night."

Liang Kexin opened his mouth halfway, thoughtful.

So, after two hours of dissemination, on the bus to the spring outing location, the version Gu Ran heard changed to: "Last night, my junior brother put Chi Dali to sleep."

Gu Ran strongly protested: "You guys should be human, the younger brother is still underage."

Liang Kexin smiled and said, "I'm also underage."

Gu Ran quickly explained: "It's because of Chi Dali..."

Before he finished speaking, Chi Lang covered his mouth from behind and whispered in his ear: "There are beautiful ladies from the figure skating team in the car, save me some face."

Gu Ran pulled his hand away: "You should let the little sister see your true face. You are tall and thick, and your courage is only as big as the tip of a needle."

Chi Lang reached out and fumbled in his jacket pocket: "Lend me the earphones, I'll continue to listen!"

"Get out! The earphones are out of battery, and they are charging in the room."

Chi Lang said, "It's wired."

"I want to listen to music."

Gao Ziyi on the side was about to die of laughter from the two of them. In order to prevent Chi Lang from harassing the younger brother, he donated his earphones.

After arriving at the destination, the team members got off the car and assembled.At this time, Cheng Sen announced the real purpose of this spring outing: "The weather is good today, it is a good day for outing. The environment here is also good, I hope you have a good time!"

At this time, the team members were still booing: "Happy, happy! Director Cheng, Director Xu, Director Zhang, if you don't follow, it will be even more enjoyable."

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, you don't want me to follow me."

Director Zhang said: "It's getting late, Director Cheng will announce the discipline."

Cheng Sen cleared his throat: "The journey is a bit long, and we still need to climb a mountain in the middle. To ensure everyone's safety, there are exactly 28 of you, in groups of 4, and divided into seven groups. The change of route is 22.9 kilometers in total, and the requirement is within four hours. Done. It is still 10 minutes away from nine o'clock, one o'clock, we will gather here."

"!!!"

It's a 23-kilometer journey, and the completion time is stipulated. Is this a spring outing?This is clearly a different place for physical training!

The team members were all dumbfounded. At this time, a male player on the figure skating side asked, "What if...it doesn't finish?"

Their guide Zhang said: "Pointing to the temple behind us, today we will be vegetarian at noon, and the meal will be served at 12:30. You will be there at one o'clock. If you don't come back...you will be hungry."

"!!!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone consciously divided into groups and set off immediately!

Gu Ran, Chi Lang, Gao Ziyi, and Meng Yuqiao naturally stood together. They all knew that the four of them had a good relationship and were partners in the relay race, so no one else came to join in the fun.

Gu Ran pulled off Chi Lang's earphones: "Hurry up, I won't have anything to eat when I get back late."

23 kilometers, four hours, is really nothing to athletes.Along the way, the grass grows and warblers fly, and pear, apricot, and cherry blossoms bloom in patches. The female team members still have time to stop and take pictures.

Although it is said that it is a group of four, everyone walked and played one after another, and the division was not so detailed.

Liang Kexin and Yang Shanshan often came over and asked them to help take pictures.

Shen Jia will also come to look for Gu Ran, and the two chat while walking.This figure skating cutie is also an Internet addicted teenager.Although he has reached the age of 18, under the supervision of Director Zhang, he does not play games every day.

Like Gu Ran and Chi Lang, he only has one hour to play games on Friday and Saturday nights.

He is a typical dish and loves to play. Gu Ran took him to the school twice. From then on, every Monday when the time came, he would come to Gu Ran with his mobile phone in his arms.

In the past, two people got together and chatted about training, but now it's basically games.

Shen Jia said: "I still have four kings on the stars."

It happened that an apricot blossom floated down and landed on Shen Jia's shoulder.He is a very handsome, slender and well-proportioned boy, whose appearance is as lovely as his personality.

Without even thinking about it, Gu Ran picked up the apricot flower and pinned it behind his ear: "I'll take you to the top."

Shen Jia took down the apricot flower, rolled her eyes mischievously, and whispered something in Gu Ran's ear.

The two hit it off!
