Ping Pong Life

Chapter 445 Luo Jiu proposes marriage
"Brother, can we leave today?"

"No hurry, wait another day, wait another day."

"Oh."

Putting down the phone, Wang Chao felt a little helpless.

Three days ago, the Huaping team returned from Budapest, Hungary with honors and won all the gold medals. They returned to the Huaping base in the imperial capital, and there was no celebration ceremony afterwards. Everyone immediately devoted themselves to the follow-up training.

After all, there is a saying in the table tennis world: the World Cup is a quiz, the World Table Tennis Championships is a major test, and the Olympics is a college entrance examination.

So the time is actually very tight, and the tasks are heavy. Athletes are not stars. There are not so many glamorous occasions to attend, and there are not so many complicated interpersonal relationships to maintain. Maintaining combat effectiveness is the only thing they have to do.

But Luo Jiu experienced some subtle changes.

Today is October 10th, and three days later, on October 5th, there will be a Platinum Open in Peacock Country. According to the plan at the cake distribution meeting at the beginning of the year, the men's singles gold medal in this Open will go to Luo Jiu scrambled for.

But after Luo Jiu came back from Hungary, he took the initiative to find Cai Guodong and applied for giving up the opportunity to play in the Open. The reason he gave was that he was too tired to prepare for the World Table Tennis Championships recently and needed to rest.

Cai Guodong didn't insist on this, and just nodded in agreement.

After all, at the beginning of the year, the head coach was under a lot of pressure because he felt that the building of Huaping might collapse, so he was obsessed with every gold medal and every opportunity to prove himself.

But in the next six months, Wang Chao and Fan Xiaodong's performance was too good. They have helped Huaping completely get rid of the haze of last year, and even made the world table tennis world even more desperate. Therefore, Cai Guodong is full of confidence now and doesn't care about the end of the Peacock Country Open. Who will win.

Cai Guodong is convinced that even if a foreign association wins the championship, it will never dare to publicly question the strength of Huaping.

Therefore, sometimes there is a very similar characteristic between the overall wind direction and personal wind evaluation. When you are weak, you need to do your best to prove your strength, but when you are really strong, you don't care what others think. look at you.

Huaping looks calm and everything is going well.

But Wang Chao was keenly aware of subtle changes in his senior brother.

The cause of the incident was that Luo Jiu took the initiative to find him and asked him to wait for him and return to Jiangcheng City together.

Wang Chao was thinking about the Table Tennis Super League in his heart, and he had already promised Fan Xiaofan that as soon as the World Table Tennis Championships were over, he would return to the Q of Spades and help the team play well in the Table Tennis Super League for more than a month. Spade q was relegated, so he actually planned to buy a high-speed rail ticket and leave the next day after returning to the Huaping Base. He was in a hurry because there was a match the next day, and as long as he went back overnight, he could catch up.

But Luo Jiu told him to wait.

"I still have some personal matters to deal with, just wait for me, let's go back together."

Of course Wang Chao agreed, and he also hoped to have a companion on the road.

But Luo Jiu said to him the next day: "Don't worry, I'm not done yet, wait for me."

On the third day, Wang Chao went to the dormitory to find someone but failed to find Luo Jiu. He called Luo Jiu, but Luo Jiu said, "Don't worry, wait another day, the last day, I promise."

Wang Chao could only continue to wait.

In the past three days, he has not been idle, and has been accompanying Tang Yuanyuan to consolidate the mixed doubles level. The reason is that in the mixed doubles final of the World Table Tennis Championships, they did not complete a clean sheet against the Bay Island team, but scored 4:1.

Although the opponent only won one game, Tang Yuanyuan still blamed herself very much, because she could see that the problem was all on her side.

After Lin Zijun's evolution, the Wandao combination is indeed very strong, but no matter how strong it is, there is a problem that cannot be concealed: Lin Zijun is not good at attacking, and Zhen Jing's attacking power is obviously insufficient.

So in essence, the Tang Dynasty team only needs to follow the previous style of play, and it is enough to keep an eye on Zhen Jing.

But the problem was that Tang Yuanyuan couldn't guarantee that Zhen Jing would be killed, on the contrary, she ate a lot of Lin Zijun's serves.

Although she is careless, she is extremely strong in front of Wang Chao. Even though Wang Chao has been comforting her, "This is normal, there is no such thing as a sure victory when a girl beats a girl", but she still forces herself to practice more. The goal is to To fundamentally crush Zhen Jing.

"Unless Lin Zijun really changes his partner to Che Songxin, I will definitely beat Zhen Jing's mother until the next time we meet!" In the training ground, Tang Yuanyuan swore: "Our combination, I, Tang Yuanyuan It can't be the one who lost the chain."

Wang Chao had no choice but to drag Xiao Fei and Liu Wen to practice with her.

On the first day of practice, Wang Chao discovered that his brother Luo Jiu was not in the arena.

Luo Jiu was still not there the next day, so after practice in the afternoon, Wang Chao went to the dormitory to look for Luo Jiu, and found Luo Jiu lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone, but what was playing on the mobile phone was not a game video, but an entertainment video. lol.

At noon on the third day, he wanted to go to lunch with Luo Jiu, but found that Luo Jiu had already eaten and still smelled of alcohol.

When he went to find Luo Jiu on the third night, Luo Jiu was not in the dormitory.

Wang Chao felt something was wrong, so he called Luo Jiu, but what he heard was the noisy background voice on the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Junior Brother, I'm fine. I'm singing outside. Don't worry, I'll be back in a while." Luo Jiu was grinning, with a big tongue, obviously drunk again: "I asked Lao He for leave, don't worry Well, it won't violate discipline, is your senior brother such a disrespectful person?"

Wang Chao felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the "click" sound of the phone hanging up.

The senior brother is naturally not degenerate, even if he goes out continuously, he still knows to ask for leave, which shows that his sanity is still there.

But obviously, the senior brother really suffered a big blow after the World Table Tennis Championships. Whether he talked about relaxation or leisure these days, in the final analysis, he still meant to drink away his worries.

But what Wang Chao didn't understand was why the senior made him wait.

If it's just a matter of spending time in self-imposed exile, then what can I do if I go back to Jiangcheng City first?

He waited until the morning of the fourth day, when Luo Jiu took the initiative to call: "Junior brother, let's go, I've booked the ticket."

The two returned to the imperial capital on October 10nd, but they finally arrived in Jiangcheng City on October 2th. After that, Luo Jiu did not return to the Jiangcheng University Club Base, but followed Wang Chao to the spades q training base .

At this time, Wang Chao vaguely guessed some clues.

The gate of Spade Q's base was very solemnly built. The two watched from a distance across the street. After a long time, Wang Chao said: "Brother, let's go."

"Oh, good." Luo Jiu responded, but still looked a little timid, he hesitated for a while, and then crossed the road together behind Wang Chao.

But after crossing the road, he quickened his pace and walked to a place ahead of Wang Chao. He walked all the way to the gate and smiled at the gatekeeper: "Old Huang?"

Lao Huang was getting old and his eyesight was poor, so he took off his reading glasses, stared at him for a while, and then asked uncertainly, "Xiao Jiu?"

Luo Jiu laughed loudly: "Let me just say, I was a man of the hour with the Q of Spades back then, you must know me."

He hugged Lao Huang's shoulders vigorously, and turned his head to greet Wang Chao: "Come in, junior brother."

Lao Huang was more familiar with Wang Chao, so he smiled at him and hurried to open the door.

Luo Jiu was a chatterbox himself, but today he was especially talkative. Ever since he entered the gate of the base, he hadn't stopped talking.

"I'm familiar with this place. Back then it was a small sapling, but now it's so tall. Haha, junior brother, do you know that I used to pee here secretly."

"Oh, junior brother, look, there is an iron gate around this small pond, and there is a small abandoned garden through it. There is a stone table in it. Brother Fan wanted to learn how to play, and I taught him there."

"Hey, is this a warehouse now? I remember it was a leisure activity center at the time."

"Hey, Spade Q is developing well. This gymnasium should be renovated. I remember it was still in tatters when I came last year..."

Luo Jiu talked more and more, and the speed of his speech became faster and faster, but the more this happened, the more Wang Chao could feel the tension in his senior brother's heart.

He listened as he walked, without interrupting, until the two of them came to the gate of the base training hall, he said: "Brother, if I guessed correctly, as soon as we come in, Lao Huang should call Sister Xian." phone."

Luo Jiu's voice stopped abruptly.

"Sister Xian should be waiting for you inside." Wang Chao smiled and pushed him: "Go, I will accompany you in."

Luo Jiu was silent for a while, and said, "Okay."

There was no one practicing at the base, because Spade Q had an away game today, and all the players had already left for other cities ahead of time, only Fan Xiaoxian, the coach and team leader, did not go, standing alone in the training hall, Luo Jiu Walking in with Wang Chao, what I saw was Sister Xian standing alone under the light.

Mature, glamorous, strong, Yujie, this is Fan Xiaoxian's consistent image, but maybe the venue is too big and the lights are too deserted, so Fan Xiaoxian at this time is a little less strong and a little more delicate.

Luo Jiu quickened his pace, rushed to Fan Xiaoxian in one breath, smiled, and looked like the sun was shining again, opened his arms, with the air of a domineering president, taking advantage of his height, and squinted at Fan Xiaoxian, saying :"hug?"

Fan Xiaoxian glared at him fiercely, then leaped forward lightly, and threw herself into his arms.

Standing on the side, Wang Chao could clearly see the surprise, astonishment and confusion in Luo Jiu's eyes. His domineering president, Fan Er, suddenly collapsed and became at a loss.

Luo Jiu was confused for a long time before she opened her mouth and asked tentatively, "Marry me?"

At this moment, Wang Chao saw Luo Jiu's body tense up suddenly. He gently hugged Fan Xiaoxian and stroked Fan Xiaoxian's back with both hands. He didn't dare to use force or make any unnecessary movements. A wood carving.

Fan Xiaoxian didn't hesitate, and said as a matter of course, "Okay."

Luo Jiu's whole body relaxed, and she slumped down as if her bones had been taken out. She sat on the floor until she looked up at Fan Xiaoxian who was squatting down with him, and said, "Why?"

Fan Xiaoxian didn't answer, just gave him a hard look, and cursed: "Idiot."

Luo Jiu: "Huh?"

At this moment, the gymnasium was very quiet. Luo Jiu didn't ask any more questions, and Fan Xiaoxian didn't answer any more. The two sat on the floor, their postures were awkward. Luo Jiu tentatively grabbed Fan Xiaoxian's hand, and retracted it into his embrace. Fan Xiaoxian didn't refuse, it's just that in this posture, holding hands like this forcibly, the movements looked a little clumsy and cute, obviously a couple of men and women rushing to three, but they just showed a bit of stupidity that only ignorant boys and girls have.

As the only bystander, Wang Chao only felt a little funny.

By this time, of course he already knew what Luo Jiu was here for.

Luo Jiu was probably afraid that Fan Xiaoxian would anger Wang Chao because of the World Table Tennis Championships, so he insisted on letting Wang Chao wait for him.

For the past three days, he wasn't really drinking to soothe his sorrows. He was probably trying his best to muster up the courage again and again, planning to come back and do one of the most important things.

He drank, just to embolden himself.

He dragged on for three days, just struggling to adjust his mentality.

But it's really difficult.

He bet too much on the World Table Tennis Championships, but he still lost in the end. At that moment, he should have been desperate. He practiced with Wang Chao because of the friendship between seniors and juniors, but in his own career, he has already Come to an end.

The road ahead is broken.

If you can't even pass Wang Chao's level, then why study Sun Tianlong?
So Luo Jiu gave up the Peacock Country Open, and maybe the Olympic Games later, but this matter is too important, he dare not mention it at all now, he is afraid that Cai Guodong will be furious.

Things can only be done one by one.

There have always been two most important things in Luo Jiu's life, one is table tennis and the other is Fan Xiaoxian.

He has persisted in table tennis for seven years, and now the road ahead is broken, and he plans to come back to complete another thing.

But what he had expected was an almost unbearable storm.

"You made my sister wait for seven years, and this is the end?"

"You let the children of our old Fan family wait for seven years, and this is the end?"

"Why are you?"

"Are you worth it?"

"Are you worthy?"

"Do you know how many people have chased her over the years?"

"Do you know how good my daughter is?"

"Do you know how many seven years there are in life?"

"Do you know how precious a girl's youth is?"

"My younger sister doesn't like table tennis at all. She stayed at Spade Q all the time just because of you, and rejected the much more glamorous job that the family arranged for her than she is now."

"You are guilty!"

Smile just so you don't get hurt.

The hippie smiley face is just to pretend to be strong.

Luo Jiu followed Wang Chao to the spade q base. He had no intention of losing face. He planned to beg for nothing. He must coax and deceive Fan Xiaoxian into his hands.

He would not let down a good girl for the sake of face and dignity.

But he felt that Fan Xiaoxian must have resentment, and he might blame Wang Chao, after all, it was Wang Chao who ruined his dream.

So, don't look at his walking posture as if he was dragging two to five to eighty thousand, but at that moment he felt uneasy like a little sparrow after the rain. He deliberately acted like that in order to give Fan Xiaoxian a fuse, so that Fan Xiaoxian It is logical to scold him, beat him, reject him, mock him, and vent all the grievances in my heart.

So, he actually came to make a tree hole.

But Fan Xiaoxian's reaction was completely unexpected by Luo Jiu.

So Luo Jiu was confused.

After being confused, he could only continue acting according to the original plan and propose directly. This action itself was used to stimulate Fan Xiaoxian.

It would be even better if the uncle Fan Xiaofan was there, he could enjoy a good meal of mixed doubles.

However, Fan Xiaoxian said "OK".

And so everything went haywire.

Luo Jiu found that he could no longer play.

He held Fan Xiaoxian's hand, and smiled foolishly for a long time. He didn't look like a smart person with "the number one talent in Huaping"?
When he finally woke up from the dizziness, the only light bulb, Wang Chao, had disappeared.

So Luo Jiu cheekily asked Fan Xiaoxian, "Don't you blame me?"

Fan Xiaoxian said: "Weird."

Luo Jiu: "Huh?"

"I blame you for underestimating me." Fan Xiaoxian withdrew his hand, stood up, folded his arms, stepped on high heels, and squinted at Luo Jiu from a height, and the aura of a big woman returned at this moment: "You think I Want to get angry with Wang Chao? So you don’t even go back to your own base, just accompany him here, and you want to give me eye drops?”

Luo Jiu only smiled apologetically, "How can there be..."

"Do you know?" Fan Xiaoxian sneered: "Also, I heard that you have even stopped training these few days, and you don't plan to play in the Open?"

Luo Jiu: "Huh?"

He was very confused, he didn't know why Fan Xiaoxian knew about such things.

"Is it strange? Coach He called me on the first day. He first advised me not to be angry with you, and then asked me to persuade you. He called me three times a day and reported your whereabouts throughout the whole process. Is what you do very secret? Do you pretend that I don't know what you are going to do?"

When Fan Xiaoxian said this, he couldn't hold back the fierce gesture he made on purpose, so he softened naturally: "Xiao Jiu, let everyone save some time."

Luo Jiu blinked, feeling indescribably complicated for a while.

When he came back from the World Table Tennis Championships, he quietly adjusted his mood and quietly made a decision that he thought was great. After traveling thousands of miles to accompany Wang Chao back, he felt in his heart that "the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man is gone forever." "The tragic emotion, he felt that a man should be vigorous, either shrouded in horse leather, or humiliated in the crotch, but in the end, it turned out that it was all just self-moving, and it turned out that the future wife would have seen clearly his every move.

A 27-year-old middle school boy.

She shouldn't think I'm a fool...

And the teacher, why is he just... meddling in his own business... Oh no, is he caring?
Fan Xiaoxian pulled him up from the ground: "Let's go."

Luo Jiu: "Where are you going?"

"Go to my house." Fan Xiaoxian glared at him again: "If you don't propose marriage, how can you marry me?"

She paused, and added: "Let me tell you the truth, I got the news as soon as you got in the car in the imperial capital. Today, all the relatives of our old Fan family are here, and they are all waiting for you to come."

Luo Jiu was stunned. At this moment, he really turned into that little sparrow after the rain. Not only his heart, but also his body shrank together.
