C6 Zhou Shuyao

Zhou Shuyao was actually very tired, but she didn't want her teammates to see it.

She combed her hair that had spread out from her temples. Her hair was already completely drenched in sweat and somewhat sticky. Zhou Shuyao simply took off the hairpin on her head and let her hair fall down.

Only then did she feel a little relaxed, because. . . This meant that another tough training class had come to an end.

Especially in front of Wang Xiaoqing, the youngest member of the China female platoon, Zhou Shuyao could not even show a trace of exhaustion.

After all, Wang Xiaoqing would use Zhou Shuyao as an example every day - this 29-year-old female platoon captain as an example. Whenever Wang Xiaoqing slacked a little during training, Zhou Shuyao would remind her loudly before Xu Zhenguang, encouraging her. And often, as long as Zhou Shuyao said Wang Xiaoqing, Xu Zhenguang would no longer talk about her.

Zhou Shuyao was already 29 years old, and she knew that as a professional volleyball player, She was no longer young, and she was no longer as tireless as when she first joined the China female volleyball competition a few years ago. Especially the meniscus on her right knee. As she squatted, jumped, moved, and changed to these technical movements day after day, constantly wear and wear them down, wear them down, and wear them down, she became weaker and weaker. Finally, she could not hold on and fell apart.

Zhou Shuyao didn't say anything, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart at the heartlessness of time.

This was also the reason why her heart suddenly jumped so violently when she suddenly saw Wei Xindi standing at the side of the field today.

Seven years felt like yesterday.

. . .

Seven years ago, when Zhou Shuyao first stepped into the China female platoon's training base, she was arranged to stay in the same dormitory as Wei Xindi, who was in the team at that time.

Zhou Shuyao still remembered that when she timidly pushed her large suitcase into the dormitory, Wei Xindi had hurriedly helped her pick up the luggage, tidied up the bed, and arranged the equipment together with her. Wei Xindi, who always had a smile on his face, instantly made Zhou Shuyao, a new member of the China female platoon, feel less restrained and estranged.

In the next two years, Zhou Shuyao practically became Wei Xindi's "Little Follower Class. " The two of them comforted each other and encouraged each other on the training ground. In their daily lives, they were "inseparable from Meng, Meng, and Jiao. " Even Wei Xindi's boyfriend, Yang Fei, came to visit her on the team every time and brought her some snacks from her hometown. Wei Xindi wanted Yang Fei to bring more snacks so that he could give them to Zhou Shuyao.

At that time, Wei Xindi was close to his age. Whether it was the accumulation of experience or technical proficiency, he had already reached the peak. Every day, Zhou Shuyao would try his best to secretly learn Wei Xindi's technique during training or competitions. Wei Xindi would happily and unreservedly share his ideas and perspectives on volleyball and the second pass technique with Zhou Shuyao.

Zhou Shuyao had often thought that if one day, she could also reach Wei Xindi's height, how good would that be! However, she had never dared to think that she would one day surpass Wei Xindi, even if the environment she was in had undergone a tremendous change.

This change had suddenly occurred. However, it seemed like it had suddenly happened, but it had indeed been accumulated over a long period of time.

The intensity of the training that day was very great. After watching Wei Xindi do a few sets of training, she sat on a bench at the side of the field in a very rare discomfort.

Others might not know, but Zhou Shuyao knew that Wei Xindi had been enduring the pain caused by the meniscus injury on his knee for a very long time. At night, in the dormitory, Wei Xindi's injury was unbearable. She tossed and turned, unable to sleep. During the day, she had been through tough and high-intensity training day after day. In fact, she had already gritted her teeth and endured for a long time.

Zhou Shuyao was surprised to see that Wei Xindi had slowed down. He stood up and walked to the head coach, Xu Zhenguang. Zhou Shuyao could not hear what Wei Xindi and Xu Zhenguang were talking about. He only saw the conversation between the two. Wei Xindi placed the volleyball in the volleyball cart next to Xu Zhenguang. Then, Wei Xindi walked to the side of the training ground. Carrying his bag, he walked out of the training ground.

Zhou Shuyao was stunned. She couldn't imagine why Wei Xindi would make such a shocking and decisive move.

"Wei Xindi! If you walk out of this door today, then don't ever come back! " Xu Zhenguang roared on the training ground.

His voice was deafening. It was obvious that he was extremely furious.

Zhou Shuyao saw that Wei Xindi, who had already walked to the gate of the training center, seemed to be stunned for a moment. However, in just a few seconds, Wei Xindi still stepped out of the gate of the training center.

Zhou Shuyao immediately ran towards the training center's door, wanting to chase Wei Xindi back. However, after running two steps, she heard Xu Zhenguang's stern voice again. "Zhou Shuyao, you are not allowed to chase! No one is allowed to chase after him! I have already said that the person who walked out of this door today will never come back! All of you are the same!"

Zhou Shuyao turned around and saw someone. A few old members were also like her, preparing to chase Wei Xindi back from the entrance. However, since Xu Zhenguang said so, no one dared to chase after him anymore.

"Zhou Shuyao, you go to Team One and fight the second spread! Take her place!" Xu Zhenguang said.

Zhou Shuyao was truly stunned.

However, from that day onwards, she, Zhou Shuyao, became the second strongest female platoon in China, all the way until today, five years!

. . .

Today's training had come to an end. Zhou Shuyao saw Wei Xindi and Xu Zhenguang finish their conversation with a smile and walk towards the door of the training center. She hurriedly picked up her bag and chased out of the training center.

The training center of the female platoon in Huan City had a total of two floors, and the China female platoon always occupied the topmost floor. Zhou Shuyao shouted as he ran downstairs. "Sis! Wait for me!"

At the corner of the staircase, Zhou Shuyao saw Wei Xindi stop in his tracks.

Wei Xindi turned around and saw that it was Zhou Shuyao. She smiled. It was the same smile as the first time they met in the China female platoon dormitory seven years ago.

"Shuyao, it sounds like you. " Wei Xindi said.

Zhou Shuyao. He walked down the stairs and stood in front of Wei Xindi.

"Sis. . . I heard that you came back to China a long time ago, but. . . Your phone has been shut down. " Zhou Shuyao said.

Wei Xindi felt a little guilty and explained, "When I was overseas, I didn't use the number in China for a long time, so I went to the telecom company to apply for a shutdown. When I came back last week, I was also busy with the team matters in Beijing. I only took the time to return to my hometown in Runzhou during the weekend to recover my phone number. Oh right, are you alright? "

Zhou Shuyao nodded and said," I'm alright. . . I only have my knees. . . "

As he spoke, Zhou Shuyao pointed at his right knee and the ice bag wrapped around it. After the training ended, the team doctor helped her put the big ice bag on her knee to relieve the pain. Then, he wrapped the ice bag tightly with a few layers of preservation film and wrapped the ice bag tightly around her knee. It did not hinder her movement.

"What's wrong?" Wei Xindi asked with concern.

"Cough, it's the same as you at that time!" Zhou Shuyao pretended to be relaxed.

Wei Xindi frowned and recovered his smile. He asked, "The old man is still practicing so hard, right?"

Zhou Shuyao nodded and said, "Actually, he also knows that everyone's old arms and legs are not nimble. He also cares about us, but there's nothing we can do about it. If we didn't practice like this, what would we do in the next Olympic Games!"

Wei Xindi sighed and felt his heart ache. He pulled Zhou Shuyao's arm and said," Let's go, I'll help you downstairs! "

Zhou Shuyao was a little embarrassed. He pulled his arm back from Wei Xindi's hand and half-jokingly said, "There's no need. Sis, do you really think I'm disabled?"

Wei Xindi knew that Zhou Shuyao was very strong, so he did not insist and slowly followed Zhou Shuyao.

Zhou Shuyao asked her: "Sis, you are not going back this time, are you?"

Wei Xindi shook his head and said, "I don't know. The contract that the China volleyball Association signed with me was only one year. After all, the World Championship is held once every four years for women under the age of 23. After the competition this year, I wonder if China's female volleyball Team Two will retain their system next year. . . "

"Then you're willing to come back just like that?" Zhou Shuyao was shocked. He was puzzled that Wei Xindi actually accepted such a job invitation.

"Then what should we do? Director Chen and Old Man Tan came all the way to America to look for me. I can't let them return empty-handed no matter what. If they get excited and find an American coach, our China volleyball coach will lose face. " Wei Xindi said half-jokingly.

Seeing that Zhou Shuyao still had a puzzled look on his face, Wei Xindi sighed. He said seriously, "Actually, I thought about it for a long time. I even said that I wanted to ask myself what you asked me just now, 'Then you're willing to come back like this'. But in the end, Director Chen's words moved me. He said that he had seen as much of the video of me coaching in the United States as possible. . . At that moment, I was really touched. How should I put it. . . Just like. . . I left my hometown to work alone, and my family saw my hard work. . . It also confirmed my hard work, and finally recognized me as a person. . . My family is always my family. Even if others approve of me, But hearing the approval of my family makes me have an impulse. . . I can't help it. This time, let's call it a spur of the moment! I'll give it my all. . . "

When Zhou Shuyao saw Wei Xindi say this, he seemed to be a little agitated. She gently pulled Wei Xindi's hand and comforted him. "Sister, she said. No matter what, it's good that you're back. Even if you don't play any youth competitions under the age of 23 next year. . . Otherwise, you can come back to the national team. If you continue to play games, I'll play substitute for you! I don't believe it. With the configuration of our second best, it would be strange if our China female volleyball won't be the champion of the next Olympic Games!"

Wei Xindi was amused by Zhou Shuyao's joke. He quickly said, "Come on. I'm going back to the national team? You are so young and strong, yet you still call yourself 'old arms and legs'. I can't even fight you now. Besides, Didn't Director Xu say that I went out that door? I will never return to the national team again. I saw him today, but he didn't let it go. . . Haha, Jokes are jokes, I think. . . The young girls in the country were all very aggressive. They were staring at the national team and secretly trying their best. The new generation of the Yangtze River was pushing the previous generation. Oh right, the new generation of the Yangtze River was pushing the old generation forward. You know that Gu Weiyang from the Binhai Female Racing, right?"

Zhou Shuyao nodded. The new server from the league had competed with her, and Zhou Shuyao had a very deep impression of Gu Weiyang.

Speaking of the athletes under his command, Wei Xindi immediately became excited and said, "I think she's pretty good. Although she's not very tall, she has a good temperament and looks quite smart. If I'm not wrong, this year I plan to train Weiyang Gu and try to send her to the China female platoon next year. "

Wei Xindi looked at Zhou Shuyao with anticipation and said, "Shuyao, if I send her to the national team next year, help me look after her, help her, and take care of her. I believe that she will do well. "

"She will! Sister, just like how you helped me and took care of me back then!" Zhou Shuyao blurted out.

She saw Wei Xindi's eyes flash with light.

. . .

Reuniting with Wei Xindi was the happiest thing Zhou Shuyao had experienced in the past few days. He had a good sleep. Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhou Shuyao and the other female platoon members gathered at the entrance of the apartment of the female platoon training base in Huan City. They were preparing to take a bus to Egret Island Airport and embark on their training journey.

As usual, the leaders and staff of the base came out to bid farewell to the female platoon.

Just as they were about to get on the bus, Zhou Shuyao saw Wei Xindi walking out of the apartment building with quick steps.

Zhou Shuyao went up to him and said goodbye to him. Wei Xindi gave her a big hug.

"You know my phone number," Wei Xindi said. "Shuyao, no matter where you are, just tell me if you need anything! Oh, right. Nowadays, everyone in the country uses WeChat. We can contact each other anytime on WeChat. "

Zhou Shuyao nodded, turned around, and got on the bus. He sat by the window. She took out her phone and sent Wei Xindi a message on WeChat: Sis, I'll take a look at the training ground later.

At this moment, she suddenly saw a group of young girls in the national team's bright red uniforms running out of the apartment building in twos and threes. Some of those faces were recognized by Zhou Shuyao, some by Zhou Shuyao. She saw that these girls ran to Wei Xindi's side and lined up in two straight lines.

A strange sound came from the bus. The coaches and the members of the China female platoon were also confused by the scene under the bus.

"Lu Ming, isn't that the two-meter tall little assistant attack of your team?"

"Jia Hui, that little guy is your team's second disciple, Gu Weiyang, right?"

"Yeah, 'Great Qing' is also standing there. This must be the team members of Team Two. That's right, isn't that Team Two's head coach, Wei Xindi!?"

" What are they doing here? "

"They're here to see us off, aren't they?"

"There's no such thing as this in the past!"

The team members discussed with each other, looking out of the bus curiously.

However, the bus did not stop and slowly started up. Through the window, Zhou Shuyao heard Wei Xindi say loudly to her team members, "Ladies, say goodbye to the big sisters of the national team!"

The members of China's female platoon number two lined up neatly and waved at the bus.

So that was it!

The coaches and members of China's female platoon were sincerely excited. They squeezed to the window of the bus and waved at the members and coaches of China's second female platoon. The bus drove out of the base compound and merged into the traffic in the morning.

Sitting on the bus, Zhou Shuyao was a little disappointed and disappointed, but also very happy. After a while, her phone rang. On WeChat, it was a photo sent by Wei Xindi.

The photo was taking the scene in the training center. In the clean and tidy center of the field, there was a large heart-shaped pattern made of volleyballs. There were two big words in it - "Come on!"

It turned out that Zhou Shuyao had eaten dinner last night and quietly came to the training ground alone. He arranged the pattern with volleyball.

She wanted to use this special method to cheer up the younger sisters of China's female volleyball Team Two and encourage them. She also hoped to cheer and encourage her old teammate and sister like Wei Xindi.

And she especially hoped that this year would not be the only year Wei Xindi returned.

"Sis, this time, you must not leave again. . . " Zhou Shuyao suddenly muttered to himself.
