The Gold is Yours, You Are Mine

Chapter 100: time

The venue was set up early, and the referees were already in place. Yin Jiayi glanced at the stands. The coaching staff were all there, but Wan Jing was missing. She felt sad, knowing that she suddenly decided to retire this time. The person is him, and it is only strange that he can come.

HD cameras are set up on the edge of the playing field.

Xie Shi'an came over and said, wrapping his racket and hand glue.

"Can you still fight?"

Yin Jiayi smiled, forcing back the glint in her eyes.

"Yes, let's start."

The commentator looked excitedly at the picture sent back from the scene.

"Today's warm-up match can be said to be a battle between dragons and tigers. It is very exciting. The last time I saw Yin Jiayi and Xie Shi'an competing on the same stage was at the national competition."

Commentary B: "These two people are currently number one in the world, a figure at the ceiling level of women's badminton, and a rising star in the world badminton world. In a very short time, they have rushed to the top ten in the world. Let us wait and see who can win!"

Xie Shi'an took the lead to serve, and Yin Jiayi defended at the net. The two sides exchanged an overshot at the beginning of the game.

The commentator was amazed.

"As expected of Team Yin, she didn't lose out against Xie Shi'an's continuous backhand slashes. As we all know, her ball speed is very fast. If you don't pay attention, you will get points."

Commentary B: "Why do I feel that Captain Yin still has the meaning of suppressing the top of her head."

Commentary A: "The distance between the two people in front of the net has been widened!"

Commentary B: "Yin Jiayi is going to counterattack! Beautiful! The forehand smashed the diagonal line, hitting the backcourt where Xie Shi'an had no time to return to defense."

Commentator A&B: "Let's congratulate Team Yin for scoring the first point!"

Xie Shi'an gasped slightly.

Yin Jiayi smiled.

"Don't underestimate the enemy."

There was a wanton smile on the boy's face.

"Ang, I let you go just now."

Before she finished speaking, the person moved. Yin Jiayi's pupils shrank, and she saw only a white meteor flying over. She didn't even see her gesture clearly. It was just such a moment of hesitation, and the ball fell to the ground.

The commentator also applauded: "Beautiful! A sudden counterattack!"

"Xie Shi'an's ball speed is really too fast!"

"Let the on-site director teacher give us a replay."

The slow-motion replay came out, and everyone could see clearly that Xie Shi'an's smash just now, and the quick step to the net was a fake move. It looked like he was going to push a straight line, but in fact, it was a backhand with a diagonal kick, and Yin Jiayi was not given any reaction time at all. The contest of top players is often in the blink of an eye.

Yin Jiayi looked at her with emotion in her eyes.

"During the national competition, you still don't know how to use fake moves."

Xie Shi'an raised the corners of his lips.

"How long has this been going on, how can people stand still forever."

During the Asian Cup, she not only had to play games during the day, but also trained with Yan Xinyuan at night. From on-court skills to off-court techniques and tactics, Yan Xinyuan had no reservations about the valuable experience he had left over from his forty-plus years of professional career. taught her.

The feint was also mastered by her at that time.

Yes, time is passing, how can people stand still forever.

Yin Jiayi looked at her, as if she saw her former self, a genius girl who became famous in the first battle, probably the brighter the meteor, the more dazzling it will be when it falls.

She is playing this game as if it were the Olympics.

The same is true for Xie Shi'an, because she knows that this may be the last time she will fight Yin Jiayi.

The first round of the two sides ended with Xie Shi'an's 21:19 victory.

The second game was very crucial for both of them, so from the very beginning, they played inseparably, performing extreme saves again and again.

They were sweating on the field.

The crisp sound of hitting the ball echoed in the stadium.

This is undoubtedly the top contest among active female badminton players, and the battle was once very tense.

Jian Changnian was sweating for the two people on the field, and even the commentator exclaimed frequently.

"Oh my god! I thought the match between the two of them in the national competition was already exciting enough, but I didn't expect that the wonderful thing is yet to come!"

"This is no longer wonderful, this is amazing!"

"Now the score has come to 19:20, Yin Jiayi is leading temporarily, the last ball is up, who will win this game?!"

"Come on Team Yin, Team Yin, win this game to equalize the score and enter the final game."

"Although it is a warm-up match, it is not counted in the points ranking, but both sides are working hard, and no one wants to let it go."

"This last ball is related to the direction of the game. It can be seen that both sides are very cautious. Yin Jiayi retreated to the backcourt. It seems that there will be another round of multi-shot competition."

"Yin Jiayi's head area has always been her strong point."

"But Xie Shi'an, she didn't want to let it go! She directly backhanded her face and hit the net! She broke the boat and evened the score!"

There was a sudden burst of cheers from the audience.

Jian Changnian also stood up from the stands and cheered them on loudly: "Good job Shi'an, Team Yin, come on!!"

It seems that he has returned to the national competition again.

It's the first time to play against a national player. It would be a lie to say that they are not nervous. What's more, that game is related to whether they can get the only qualifying spot in the Eastern Division. If she loses, the hard work of so many people on the team All in vain.

Before the game, Xie Shi'an sat alone in the lounge for a long time holding the mineral water bottle, the bottle was opened, and the water flowed all over the floor.

Yan Xinyuan knocked on the door and came in.

"Shi'an, the game starts in five minutes."

Xie Shi'an looked up at him and smiled wryly.

"Coach Yan, I... What if I lose?"

Yan Xinyuan walked over and touched her head.

"Don't be afraid, remember, when you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins."

When they fought each other in front of the net, they all had the same sharp eyes, Xie Shi'an raised the corners of his lips slightly, and took a few steps back.

The ball flew over.

Xie Shi'an raised his right hand high.

boom-

The force was so great that even sparks splashed out.

Falling like a white meteor.

The commentator exclaimed: "Oh my God! Xie Shi'an's ball speed is too fast, you can only see an afterimage with the naked eye!"

"Can Yin Jiayi hold it? Captain Yin, hold on, Captain Yin!"

At the moment when his voice fell.

The scoreboard lights up.

The audience broke out into warm cheers again.

"At 21:20, Xie Shi'an scored consecutively when he was behind, and even overtook Yin Jiayi. This is the last goal!"

The commentator and the audience at the scene stared at the screen and held their breath. Jian Changnian and her teammates from the national team also stood up.

Everyone is eagerly waiting for the final result.

Under the eyes of everyone, Xie Shi'an leaped high and slashed with his forehand!

The audience was silent for a few seconds.

Like a slow-motion replay, the sound of Yin Jiayi's footsteps echoed throughout the venue.

She tried her best to save the ball, but after all, she was 0.5 seconds too late, and the ball touched the edge of her racket and fell.

Yin Jiayi put down her racket and laughed.

"I lost."

"Captain Yin—" Xie Shi'an also lowered his arms.

She went all out during the fight, and when she finished the fight, seeing that she was obviously smiling, she felt a little unspeakably sad.

The look in Yin Jiayi's eyes was inexplicable, she seemed to be a little moved, but also a little relieved. If it is said that she narrowly won the national competition, and there was some luck in it, then this time, Xie Shi'an has proved herself with her strength, her growth speed , is really amazing.

Even if she doesn't retire, give her another two years, no, if she keeps such a fiery touch, at most one year, she will be able to surpass her in the IBF rankings.

Yin Jiayi walked over, patted her on the shoulder lightly, and said earnestly, "Shi'an, I'm not mistaken. Come on for the Olympics. I'll leave the burden of the Grand Slam to you."

After she turned and left, Xie Shi'an's eyes were slightly red.

At the post-match press conference, Yin Jiayi announced in public that she is about to retire.

The reporters looked at each other in blank dismay, and for a while, the spotlights flickered randomly.

Sitting here, facing the camera, her eyes were slightly red, and she just said: "I'm sorry for my coach, I'm sorry for my teammates, and I'm sorry for the fans and friends who have always supported me."

"In fact, I have been suffering from illnesses for so many years. Whether it is physical or mental, it is time to say goodbye to the game. I am already 26 years old. For professional players, I am no longer young. Now, it's time for me to pass the baton to young people with more potential."

A reporter asked sharp questions below.

"There is only one singles gold medal in the Olympic Games. Is it because Xie Shi'an came, so one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, so you chose to retire?"

"Captain Yin, what are your plans after you retire?"

"I'm already engaged. After retiring, I plan to marry my fiancé and live a normal life."

The reporters were asking questions while writing the draft. Not long after, the news of Yin Jiayi's retirement became a trending search.

"Captain Yin, is your fiancé also an insider?"

"No, please skip the question about my fiance, he doesn't like to show his face."

"Captain Yin, Captain Yin—"

The reporters raised their hands and wanted to ask questions.

Yin Jiayi stood up, bowed deeply to the camera, and ended the press conference, which was painful for her.

"I debuted at the age of twelve, joined the national team at the age of fifteen, and fought for decades. The person I am most grateful to is my teacher, Coach Wan. No matter where I am, I will always sincerely wish you peace and health."

"I also wish our team a prosperous future and greater success in the London Olympics."

When Yin Jiayi held a press conference, some reporters stopped Xie Shi'an and his party outside the venue.

"May I ask what you think of Team Yin's retirement?"

Xie Shi'an pulled the corner of his lips contemptuously.

"Didn't you all see the results of the match just now? Isn't it right to abdicate to give way to Xian?"

When she said this, she was so arrogant that she didn't look like herself. Jian Changnian gave her a strange look, but it was difficult for her to ask any questions since the reporters were all present.

The reporter wanted to ask more questions, but Xie Shi'an took her hand and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Jian Changnian was taken aback for a moment. In midsummer and July, her palm was as cold as a piece of iron.

She came back to her senses, nodded, quickly followed her pace, held her hand tightly, and followed Xie Shi'an through the crowd.

She later realized that Xie Shi'an's actions at that time were subconscious, and she wanted to find someone to rely on.

It took many years for Xie Shi'an to realize why he subconsciously grabbed her hand among a bunch of people.

But that's not important anymore, they have always been like this during the years when they were struggling to cross the river with stones, supporting each other to go on.

Xie Shi'an's short interview, combined with what she said before the game, pushed the public opinion to the climax.

Some media criticized her for being young and frivolous, and many netizens thought that Yin Jiayi's 0:2 loss to her was really embarrassing, and the opportunity should be given to someone who is more prepared. In addition, the fans of both parties were arguing on social platforms. After searching for a whole day, let alone her sexual orientation, no one even cared about her fiance.

After all the dust settled, the two people in the middle of the storm were walking in the sunset. Xie Shi'an sent them to the door of the training center.

"It's really thanks to you this time. If you didn't deliberately say those words to smoke bombs for the media, I'm afraid they would have to dig deeper into the reason for my retirement."

Yin Jiayi stopped in her tracks and involved her, making people scolded for nothing, and she felt very sorry for it.

Xie Shi'an shrugged.

"It doesn't matter, you can say whatever you like, it's just... isn't there any better solution?"

After learning the news of her retirement, Jin Nanzhi contacted the news, so he would inevitably blame her. In addition, Yin Jiayi was forced to retire because of the interference of the Korean team, Xie Shi'an also had a suspicion in his heart.

When she thought of the time when they gave each other gifts, there was a trace of sadness in her eyes. No matter what, she would never go back to that time.

The next time we meet on the field, the enemy will be extremely jealous when they meet.

Yin Jiayi also knew what she was thinking, sighed, and patted her on the shoulder: "This is the simplest and most effective method. I don't want to implicate Teacher Wan or the entire national team."

After she finished speaking, she mustered up her courage again and smiled brightly.

"That's good, I haven't had a good rest for a long time, I can do some things I want to do, such as travel or something."

Xie Shi'an didn't want to make the parting atmosphere too sad.

"I am envious of what I said."

The car has arrived and is waiting for her.

"Shi'an, I... have one last thing, I want to ask you, don't look at Mr. Wan, he usually scolds people very badly, but in fact he is very good. I am leaving, he must be very sad, you have time to do more for me Be with him and ask him to take care of himself."

Yin Jiayi's eyes were slightly red as she spoke.

Xie Shi'an nodded: "Okay."

Jian Changnian rushed up and hugged her.

"Captain Yin, I miss you."

Yin Jiayi touched her head and glanced at Xie Shi'an.

"You also have to spend more time with your senior sister, she...is very lonely, and you need to support each other and walk together in the future."

Behind Jian Changnian, many people ran out, and everyone who finished the game rushed over.

Looking over one by one, both eyes are red.

They embrace each other.

"Captain Yin, come back often."

"Captain Yin, thank you for taking care of me for so long."

"Captain Yin, I said I would beat you, but you have to leave before the fight."
