his little cutie

Chapter 16 Chen Zixia: The person I like is a hero
1.0
Chen Yu'an felt that her relationship with Xia Ji was exposed not only in Xia's house, but also in her house.

Otherwise, she really couldn't figure out what kind of mentality her father had. Before Xia Ji was about to set off for the competition in X province, he gave her a student and asked her to help him with English tutoring every day. Come to her house to make up.

This made it impossible for her to find an excuse to live with Ren Tian's family like last time, and then slipped away to find Xia Ji.

The coincidence of this timing and the abnormality of the supplementary subjects made her head full of ellipses.

"Dad, you know, I was the worst in English in the subjects of the college entrance examination, so don't drag other children down!"

She played coquettishly with a long ending, and Dad Chen rolled his Adam's apple. After struggling for a while, he shook his head resolutely: "No, it's settled like this."

Chen Yu'an secretly said badly.

Chen's father is 13 years older than Chen's mother. After Chen Anan was born, Chen's mother always laughed at him for being an old girl.Father Chen has been a grassroots policeman for many years. Although he is a bit serious, he treats this daughter very dearly.

His daughter was so small and so soft, for the first month, as long as she looked at him with big black grape-like eyes, his heart was so soft that he could cry out.

Chen Yu'an grows up to be cuter, Chen's mother has a bad temper, and the father and daughter form a small alliance, often squatting outside the community to eat ice cream, you take a bite, and finally caught by Chen's mother who throws garbage Facing the wall and thinking about it.

So such father Chen forced his precious daughter to stay at home in such a disregard of her wishes, there is probably only one possibility - to be angry that the little cabbage he raised at home was raped by a pig from outside.

Chen Yu'an didn't tell Xia Ji about this conjecture, but only said that the family's favor couldn't be shirked, and he must make up lessons for him.Xia Ji didn't say anything, just let her stay at home, and when he came back, if she wanted to watch the game, it would be the same on the live broadcast platform.

Chen Yu rushed downstairs with a bag of garbage like she did when she was a child. Xia Ji waited at the exit on the first floor wearing a white down jacket, took the garbage in her hand, went out to throw it away and folded it back. The body of the rabbit pajamas.

The oversized down jacket made her look even petite and cute. Xia Ji poked her face, and then measured her height: "Why do I feel that you are growing shorter and shorter? You shrink when you heat up and shrink when you cool down every winter." If it shrinks, will it germinate and grow back in spring?"

Chen Yuan opened his hand with a puffy face, seeing that he was only wearing a white shirt and a gray knitted vest, he moved over like a ball, took off the down jacket and put it on for him, opened the front of the jacket, got in by himself, and hugged his waist.

"It's so warm!"

Xia Ji rested her chin on the top of her hair: "Xia Ji's body heater, it will give you warmth and love."

After hugging for a while, Xia Ji said: "It's freezing cold outside, and I don't want you to follow me around. It won't be good if you get sick later. It's almost Chinese New Year, and I'll come back with a medal so I can face the future father in law."

Chen Yu'an was hit by the words "future father-in-law", blushing, and kept pushing into his arms.

After a while, she realized that his topic was very abrupt, and he must have seen what Father Chen meant... Well, as expected of Xia Huilang, he is just scheming.

The phone rang suddenly, and Chen Yuan looked at the screen and answered the phone frantically.

"Did you throw yourself out when you threw out the trash?"

"No, no, I'll go right back."

Chen Yu'an reluctantly pulled Xia Ji's finger, and he kissed her lips: "Let's go!"

She bounced far away in his line of sight, then stopped suddenly, and took a few steps back.

"Brother Xiaoji, come on!"

His throat was choked, and it took him a long time to remember to wave his hands, but she had already gone up.

"Okay, I'll do my best."

2.0
The student of Mr. Chen, the new English tutoring teacher, is a boy in the first year of high school. Like her, he also has the surname Chen.

At first, Chen Anan was still a little nervous, but after testing Chen's English level a few times, she was no longer nervous.If the English proficiency level of a normal freshman student is one meter high, then Chen is only about three centimeters.

"Come and read the word with me, honest, honest, honest, upright."

"Honest, Ernest, honest, upright."

"It's ao, not ou, come on, read it again."

Classmate Chen pushed the glasses thicker than the bottom of a beer bottle. He was dull and simple: "Teacher, I have a bad memory. Please read it ten times in a row for me to deepen my impression."

Chen Yuyan smiled and read it ten times in a row.

Chen still didn't understand, so she read it ten times.

……

In the end, classmate Chen succeeded in misleading Chen Anan, and her pronunciation became "Ernest". Classmate Chen looked at her with puzzled eyes: "Teacher, don't you read it differently from me?"

Chen Yuyan: "..."

Chen Yuyan updates the daily routine of the irascible teacher Chen in the dormitory group every day.

【Chen Keai: I suspect that he was sent by God to punish me. How could there be such a terrible student?In the past few days, my world view is about to explode!After seeing him off every day, I stayed in the room in a trance, and it took three hours to recover. I felt sorry for the teacher in his class every day. [Candle][Candle]]

[Chen Keai: And Lao Chen is indeed an old policeman who has worked at the grassroots level for decades, with first-class prevention methods.Every day, classmate Chen came before Xia Ji's competition. In order to ensure a strong academic atmosphere in the classroom, my mobile phone and other communication devices were confiscated by Lao Chen.After classmate Chen left, the game would have ended long ago, so I could only watch the score.After waiting for a few more hours to regain my energy, my head is already swollen, and I don't have the strength to watch the replay of the game!Did I pick it up when Lao Chen was picking up trash? ! 】

[Chen Keai: What should I do?Tomorrow, Xia Ji will have a single semi-final, it's a very important match, what should I do to make Lao Chen let me go?Waiting online, very urgent. 】

[Call me Master Qingyang: What a modern version of "Romeo and Juliet", you let Xia Ji knock on the window glass of your house with a stone like Romeo, then you jump out of the window and elope to the moon with him . 】

[Wow, woof, one, two, three, hold hands; four, five, six, look up; seven, eight, nine, we elope to the moon...]

[Chen Keai: My house is on the ninth floor, besides, Xia Ji won't be able to come back! 】

[Call me Lord Qingyang: My god, just Sheng Qinshou floated over and saw our conversation, and said that he wanted to try the elopement play, and my waist was aching. 】

【Wow, woof:...】

【Chen Keai: ... Forget it, I can't count on you guys, let's go. 】

[Call me Lord Qingyang: The benefactor stays away. In fact, Uncle Chen hates you more than opposes you, otherwise he wouldn't be so secretive. It's cute to say it.Is this where your cute genes come from?I can only tell you that this matter should not be rushed. If you are in a hurry, it may hurt uncle's heart.Wait, after Xia Ji goes back, find time to have a heart-to-heart talk with Uncle Chen, he loves you so much, he won't make you feel bad. 】

Chen Yu'an's eyes were moist, and he sighed softly.

Dad has never been her enemy, for the sake of his precious daughter, he can be the enemy of the whole world.

Half an hour before Xia Ji's semi-final, Chen entered the gate on time.

Chen's father floated slowly to the living room with tea in his hand. Chen Yuan welcomed classmate Chen into the room and closed the door.

Chen Yuan sat down with a transparent plastic box in his arms: "Come on, first write down the five words I learned yesterday, and give one candy to each other!"

She grabbed five candies, and the colorful confetti lay on her white palm.

"Are they all written correctly?"

"Write everything correctly, then I'll give you this box."

Classmate Chen glanced at her, pushed his glasses, covered the emotions in his eyes, paused the tip of his pen, and began to write.

"Bang bang bang..."

There was a knock on the door outside. It was not so much a knock as a slamming of the door. Chen Yu'an felt that the ground was shaking.

Chen's father went to open the door, and Chen An'an vaguely heard a familiar voice.The door was opened, Ren Tianyi panted heavily, and said intermittently: "Xia Ji is injured, Jiang Li is at the scene... call you and turn off the phone, she will notify me to come to you, she didn't tell me the specific situation ...Ecstasy you..."

Chen Yu'an's mind went blank, and tears flowed down in a "shua".

She walked out with her lips trembling, and Father Chen stood outside, as usual, it was her big mountain and her big tree.

"dad……"

"Go and pack up, I'll drive you to the airport."

In the room, classmate Chen finished writing the words silently, and turned out a pair of word lists, all of which were written correctly.

Not only did he write correctly, but he also wrote beautifully in cursive English, completely unlike the handwriting of primary school students before.

He took off his glasses, stared at the candy box with sharp eyes for a while, stretched out his hand, peeled off two candies and threw them into his mouth, chewing them to pieces.

3.0
When Chen Anan and Ren Tian took the nearest flight to X, it was already dark.

Jiang Li picked up the person at the airport, took a taxi and went straight to the emergency department of the Central Hospital. On the way, Chen Yu'an drove the traffic to watch the video of Xia Ji's game.Xia Ji's trump card is that he has a fast attack speed, and defense is weak compared to offense.

In the video, Xia Ji's figure was 1.5 seconds slower than before, and the slower attack speed gave the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of.

The opponent stabbed sharply, forcing Xia Ji to the edge of the confinement fencing line. Xia Ji's right hand holding the sword visibly shook, almost relying on the subconsciousness of these years of competition, he broke through the opponent's attack and hit the scoring point .

Amidst the cheers at the scene, Xia Ji took off the mask with his left hand, his face was pale, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

His figure swayed, and then he fell down...

After that it was chaos.

"I was far away, so I didn't see it clearly. It should be a wrist injury. Athletes, injuries and the like are inevitable. Don't worry, our Boss Xia has been excellent for so many years. God sees that this is too disrespectful to others." It's fair, let's just create a small twist..." Jiang Li babbled, choked for breath, covered her face in collapse, tears slid down her fingers, "How can the boss get hurt? If he is good What can I do..."

Chen Yu'an turned his head to look out of the car window, the lights receded rapidly in front of the misty eyes, looking blurred and mottled.

When several people arrived, their eyes were red one by one, and they lined up like three silly rabbits.

Xia Ji has already been transferred to the high-grade ward, leaning comfortably on the sofa to watch "A Chinese Journey to the West", she was startled when she turned her head and saw them: "Why are you here?"

Chen Yuen stared at his face... and his hand, without saying a word, while he raised his bandaged right hand: "Because of this? It's not a big deal, just twisted it, and the doctor pressed it and wrapped it up That's good. The bronze medal match will be played first, and the final will be two days later, so I just need to take a rest."

Jiang Li, who was crying so hard, stopped crying and grabbed Ren Tianyi's arm: "No, I can't hold back my emotions, woo woo woo...but it's too silly to cry here, you can accompany me outside to finish crying Come back."

Ren Tianyi: "..."

The light bulb that was in the way walked away with insight, Xia Ji stretched out his arms: "Come here, give me a hug."

Chen Yuen walked over slowly, instead of throwing himself into his arms, he carefully held his right wrist and sat beside him.

Her complexion was very bad, and her mouth was tightly pursed.

Xia Ji sighed secretly, and teased her with a smile: "Do you miss me, miss me so much that you hide in bed and cry every day? Oh no, do you want to soak yourself in tears so that you can germinate and grow taller as soon as possible?"

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and he couldn't laugh anymore.

"Xia Ji, don't go to the finals. Even if you don't go, you can still get a silver medal. You have already won the medal, and Lao Chen will not target you."

She has also been exposed to fencing since she was a child. According to the advanced design of fencing uniforms today, the probability of twisting her wrist is about the same as that of Chen's mother agreeing to her keeping a dog, which can be ignored.

Before coming to the hospital, all she saw was the scene of Xia Ji collapsing under everyone's attention.

She never thought that Xia Ji would also fall down one day.

Nor is he omnipotent.

It's just that in front of her, he is trying to be omnipotent.

On the TV, Fairy Zixia, in a bright red wedding dress, fell into the arms of Monkey King, saying this line that countless people regard as a classic: "The person I like is a hero, one day, he will step on the colorful auspicious clouds. Marry me."

Xia Ji leaned over and kissed her tears.

"If I don't go, I will target myself. I don't want the last game of my life to end in this way."

"Yuan, you can accompany me in the final!"

Chen Yu'an unconsciously grabbed his collar. She didn't break down on the way of confusion and ignorance, and she didn't break down when she saw him in a bad state.

But at this moment, beside him, listening to his usual simple words, her tense nerves suddenly loosened, and she hugged him tightly and cried loudly, crying hoarsely.

4.0
In the afternoon of the next day, Sui Yang, Guo Minghao, and the Minister of Literature and Art came over.

Chen Yu'an pushed open the door of the ward, and was startled when he saw a row of black heads.

"Why did you buy candied chestnuts for so long?"

"That online celebrity store is so popular, I waited in line for a long time."

"Yuan is so polite. Knowing that we have traveled a long distance, he even bought something here." Guo Minghao just washed his hands and came over, and took out the paper bags. The few people formed a circle, unceremoniously, one by one, Happily.

Xia Ji couldn't move his hands, and his long legs, which had no place to rest, were still nimble. He kicked each of them: "Are you here to visit a doctor, or to hold a tea party?"

Guo Minghao pondered for a while: "It's all there!"

Sui Yang peeled off the chestnut shells, piled the chestnut meat to the hand of the Minister of Literature and Art, and looked up at Xia Ji: "The Buddha said, what can you do if the disaster has lasted for a thousand years? We made an appointment, but we just found an excuse to come out and play." , otherwise, in this new year, who can let him go."

The Minister of Literature and Art closed his eyes and praised his boyfriend: "Yangyang, you are so witty!"

In a room of comedians, the honest man Chen Yu'an said with difficulty: "I'll go down and get a few cups of milk tea."

There is a milk tea shop opposite the hospital. It has a small facade and only three small tables inside.

Chen Yu'an sat at the farthest position, and the conversation between him and the doctor that she overheard when she was looking for Uncle Xia just now was echoing in her ears.

"According to Xia Ji's current state, if there is another match, what will be the worst outcome..."

"The triangular fibrocartilaginous disc of the patient's right wrist was injured, which was caused by repeated injuries for a long time. Fortunately, it is still type C. It can be cured by surgery, and the recovery period is very short, which will not affect the future life. If the patient wants to continue the game, the condition Aggravation is inevitable, but it will not be too serious."

Uncle Xia breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, doctor."

"I still want to remind that after the recovery period, if the patient wants to continue training, he must do it slowly and take protective measures in advance."

Uncle Xia's voice sank: "He won't train anymore. He has planned to retire a long time ago. This game is his last game. Xia Ji doesn't want to join the provincial team for closed training. He has people he can't let go of. and also……"

Chen Yu'an couldn't hear the words clearly after that, she walked downstairs like a wandering spirit, and almost forgot her mobile phone there when she paid for the chestnuts.

"Little girl, your milk tea is ready."

The clerk's voice pulled her out of her memories, and she sat back in her seat with the milk tea, drinking one cup after another, the heat made her eyes moist and uncomfortable.

Xia Ji had never told her before that she was going to retire, nor did she say that she was going to enter the provincial team, nor did she say that she worked hard to achieve a good result in the last game, but she was repeatedly injured because of it, and finally won After narrowly winning in the semifinals, he fell.

Hearing about such an important matter from others, she felt a little disappointed, but the one who made her most sad was not Xia Ji, but herself.

Xia Ji has been on the fencing field since she was four years old, and it has been 17 years now.

Fencing is part of his life and his passion.

He was the teenager who would shine on the fencing ring.

But suddenly one day, he chose to stop, and she became one of the reasons.Even if she wasn't the main obstacle, she was the factor that made him give up.

She could accept that she could do nothing to help him, but she couldn't accept that she would hold him back and be his stumbling block.

5.0
On the day of Xia Ji's competition, several people sat in the first row.

Fencing is still an unpopular event, and it is a domestic competition, so there are not many spectators in the venue.

But Xia Ji was injured in the semi-finals, and everyone guessed that Xia Ji, who was about to retire in the finals, appeared, but still received thunderous applause from the stadium.

Guo Minghao and the others lost their previous hippie smiles, and each looked more serious than the other.

They were laughing and laughing on purpose before, in order to save Xia Ji from any psychological burden.If they were not worried, they would not have traveled thousands of miles to come here.

Chen Yu'an even had some difficulty breathing, and suddenly the back of his hand felt warm, and it was Jiang Li, who had been red-eyed since entering the museum.

She held Jiang Li's hand with her backhand, and the other hand grabbed the hand of the minister of literature and art. Several people held their breath and waited for the game to start.

Xia Ji's opponent was the runner-up who was defeated by his sword in the last championship match. Now that the two meet again, it is natural that they are enemies.The opponent's swordsman showed no mercy at all, and attacked Xia Ji's weakest defensive part on the right after he was injured, scoring consecutive points.

Xia Ji's arm holding the sword was stiff, and he dealt with it with difficulty. With a counterattack, he gritted his teeth and pulled back a city.

His whole body was shaking, and his right hand was shaking even more violently, like an old lion, unwilling to leave in front of the new overlord of the territory, trying his best to fight.

Jiang Li cried out: "Don't compare, stop! Boss, don't compare..."

At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 15:12.

Xia Ji took off the mask with difficulty, knelt on the ground, and rested his forehead on the field.

Although he did not win, he has no regrets. He is worthy of being a swordsman and worthy of the past 17 years.

Chen Yu'an had already burst into tears, rushed up, helped him up, and helped him walk down slowly amidst the cheers in the stadium.

The hero will not give up, but the hero will also end.

"Actually, it's a bit regrettable. I still want to take a gold medal to my future father-in-law. If I take a silver medal, will he think I'm useless?"

City A, Building 3, Building 901, Xingfu Community, Mother Chen watched her daughter and future son-in-law walking side by side in the live broadcast, crying and laughing.Father Chen put down his cell phone silently and walked into the bathroom. Mother Chen listened to the sound of water flowing for 2 minutes before the old man came out.

He looked quite normal, but his voice was uncontrollably tense and hoarse: "That kid...not bad."

"Aren't you going to cry?"

Father Chen remained silent, turned around and walked into the bathroom again.

"Why are you going again?"

"...I didn't wash my face clean."

Chen's mother wiped away tears, and smiled coldly: "Heh, I don't think my body is upright."

Uncle Xia made arrangements in advance, and Xia Ji entered the operating room as soon as the game was played.

When the patient's family members signed the consent form for the operation, several young people surrounded the doctor and asked questions in a hurry.

"Will there be any sequelae of this operation? For example, poor speech, inflexible legs and so on. Then he won't be able to hate me."

The doctor replied calmly with professionalism: "The patient injured his hand...and the success rate of arthroscopic TFCC debridement in our hospital is [-]%, so you don't have to worry about it."

"There are a lot of meridians in people's hands, and the main artery is also there. What if it is injured, what should I do if I hang it inside?"

Doctor: "This..."

"Nowadays, many hospitals are unreliable. Surgery will be performed in a short time. What if the anesthetic is not enough and Xia Ji is crying in pain?"

doctor:"……"

"Okay, all of you step aside." Uncle Xia drove the little ones away after signing, and said apologetically, "They are all Xia Ji's best friends, but they are too nervous."

"They have such a good relationship!"

Uncle Xia nodded, and when he turned his head, he saw Chen Yu'an standing with his heels together and his body in a line by the wall, looking in the direction of the operating room, his eyes were a little numb.

She was just like every time she was afraid of training when she was a child, she was nervous and fearful from head to toe.

Uncle Xia patted her shoulder lovingly with his big hand: "It's okay, Eucalyptus, it's just a minor operation."

Chen Yu'an's tense nerves eased a little, pursed his lips, and asked: "Uncle Xia, Xia Ji...why do you want to retire?"

"Actually, ever since he took the college entrance examination, I knew that there would be such a day. Most of the physical education students were enrolled in the Department of Physical Education, or departments with relatively less heavy workload, but he applied for the Department of Medicine. In fact, Xia Ji was in fencing. As long as he works hard, there is no problem for him to go to the national team after entering the provincial team. He was in the team all the time and couldn't go out, he didn't want to."

Chen Yu'an's heart sank to the bottom: "Is it... related to me?"

Uncle Xia nodded: "That's right, but it's more because of my mother."

"Grandma Xia?"

"After my father passed away, my mother moved back to the old courtyard alone. We were not allowed to live with her, and we could only visit her occasionally. When Xia Ji was seven years old, my mother asked her eldest brother to send Xia Ji to the old courtyard. Wait, it was only at this time that we found out that she was ill. In the last days, she wanted her favorite grandson to spend more time with her... Xia Ji is very sensible, and he matured earlier than other children since he was a child. It's a pity in life. After his mother passed away, Xia Ji became taciturn, and he didn't say anything when he was injured. He was so stubborn that he didn't look like a child. Only on the anniversary of his mother's death every year, he would reveal the fragility in his heart."

"Speaking of which, his state didn't get better until he entered high school. Although he doesn't like to laugh very much, he still has the vigor of a young man." He took a deep look at Chen An'an, and he saw that she wanted to find a crack in the ground. go in.

Uncle Xia sighed: "Xia Ji likes grandma, and regrets not knowing about her condition earlier, and spending more time with her. After the college entrance examination, he enrolled in the medical department. He wants to be a doctor rather than a swordsman. Eucalyptus, everyone has the right to choose their life. Xia Ji's retirement is not a retreat, he just made the right choice from the beginning."

"But he..." Chen Yuyan sniffed, his voice trembling, "He is such a shining person, why is he willing to leave like this?"

"He told me that he didn't want to be the sun, he wanted to be a star. There is only one sun, but the stars are in groups, and they can accompany each other. He enjoyed the eagerness after being alone, and he never wanted to be alone again."

Family, friends, sweetheart, he wants to accompany him as much as possible, so as not to let the regrets of the past recur.

Xia Ji was still that shining boy.

It's just that teenagers will grow up eventually, bid farewell to the glorious past, and move towards the reality that tends to be ordinary.

But someone will definitely remember them, because they were as hot and bright as fire.

Chen Yu'an will always remember the 21-year-old Xia Ji who was injured but still stood on the fencing field.

He is her ideal person and also her unrivaled hero.
