During the Snowstorm

A training room - full of snooker tables.

It's all... acquaintances.

6 red ball snooker is a new type of snooker, which reduces the original 15 red **** to 6 red **** and improves the speed of the game. Therefore, the Asian Games became a women's event.

Because there were no good players in this project, Yin Guo took a place and was going to fight for a medal.

And retired Lin Lin also made a decisive comeback, took another place, and wanted to fight for an extra medal for China. After all, she played snooker when she was a child, and she is better at it than the average female player.

The men snooker are naturally Lin Yiyang and Meng Xiaodong.

They are also in the team competition. The third person is tentatively named Jiang Yang. Because Jiang Yang has just completed the operation for a month, it depends on the recovery before the competition, so Li Qingyan is the candidate.

So in this training room, it has been extraordinarily "lively" from the first day.

They are all acquaintances, and they are all complicated.

When Yin Guo arrived, Lin Lin and Jiang Yang were chatting in the rest area, while Meng Xiaodong was sitting by the door alone, resting.

"Yin Guo is here, let's start," Jiang Yang said to Li Qingyan when he saw her, "I will practice with you today."

Jiang Yang can't use a club for the time being, but he can train Li Qingyan. This is also one of his tasks. Try to make Li Qingyan make a qualitative leap in the 70-day training camp.

Yin Guo picked up his club, glanced at his cousin, and then looked at Lin Lin who was drinking water.

This atmosphere - or I fight with my cousin?

Behind her, a hand pushed her to the innermost table: "You and me."

Without looking back, I knew it was Lin Yiyang.

"Really let my brother fight Lin Lin?" she asked quietly.

Lin Yiyang glanced at her, and when no one could see the angle, he flicked her forehead: "Take care of yourself."

Lin Yiyang took his club from the club holder, it was a black all-in-one, specially customized club.

He bent over, took out the ball, and gave her a game of 6-ball snooker, "You played well in the qualifiers, so you're a beginner."

She is the No. 1 in the National Budget Competition... Entry? ?

Well, snooker is his main event, and he, who has become a monk halfway through the game, is indeed an entry-level player.

"You practice with me, won't your training fall off?" She picked up the smart powder, wiped the club head, and took a peek at her cousin while caring about him.

"My brother and I, as well as Jiang Yang, will discuss each other individually, so we won't be able to delay." He said, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It was because he found that Yin Guo was still peeking at Meng Xiaodong and Lin Lin, and the ball had already kicked off. Cousin didn't seem to let others down at all.

In front of her, the hand holding the white ball shook in front of her: "Girl, look at me."

Yin Guo pointed to the table with a guilty conscience: "You tee off first."

"I'll tee off, and you won't have anything to do with this game." He handed her the white ball.

It is true. As soon as he kicked off the ball, he might have collected it all.

As soon as she set up the pole, she heard Lin Yiyang say: "Snooker, Snooker, obstacle billiards. You have to learn to set obstacles for others." He completely regarded her as a novice. "Even if you are not in good shape, you must have the ability. , let the opponent lose the game."

Sure enough, it's all a scheming old man...

Lin Yiyang raised her chin slightly and let her start.

With a snap, she flushed the table full of balls.

***

The four-hour confrontation is over.

Everyone is resting.

Meng Xiaodong put a black ball in a tricky position, and suddenly said to Lin Yiyang, "Come on, serve everyone."

Lin Yiyang smiled.

He leaned over, clearly aiming at the bottom pocket. After a heavy blow, the black ball didn't go into the bottom pocket. Instead, it circled around the table for half a circle and went straight to Lin Yiyang's middle pocket. Bag successfully.

"Go ahead," Meng Xiaodong said aside, "let me see how many tricks you have."

The same black ball was placed in the same position. Lin Yiyang didn't stop at all and played more than a dozen pocketing routes. Some make a half circle around the shore of the ball, some make a circle, and some make a circle and a half. Six pockets, he could go into whichever he wanted.

It seems to be a single ball, but it has hit more than a dozen goal lines. This solid basic skill makes people who don't know Lin Yiyang amazed.

Yin Guo practiced silently in her heart. She could play six routes at most, and she might not be able to successfully land all of them.

This requires too much accuracy.

In the final blow, the black ball jumped off the table, fell, made a turn, hit the shore of the ball, and bounced into the bottom pocket.

"Almost there." He closed the shot.

"This is almost it?" Jiang Yang obviously didn't see enough, "Let's swing the ball and see."

"Let's see how lonely you have been over the past ten years." Lin Lin also said with a smile.

"I want to see it too." Meng Xiaodong answered.

...

Lin Yiyang smiled helplessly: "To watch the performance, you have to pay."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up." Jiang Yang didn't have time to tease him.

Lin Yiyang sighed, picked up 9 balls, and placed an equilateral triangle on the table.

This is a common problem for professional players - entertaining yourself and swinging the ball.

Usually practice is too boring, this is also a way of entertainment, put the ball into a good-looking shape, and then close it all in one stroke. The viewing experience is very high, and the performance is also high.

With a snap, the equilateral triangle was knocked apart, and there was no suspense in the 9 balls, all of which were collected in one shot.

Yin Guo also likes to play like this in private, placing the **** in various shapes, her limit is 9 balls.

So when Lin Yiyang hit 10 balls, she held her breath...

Everyone in Dongxincheng has seen Lin Yiyang's strength when he was a child. He can collect up to 12 **** at a time and place them in a quadrilateral.

After waiting for 13, Jiang Yang and Lin Lin also took it more seriously.

At this time, Yin Guo was already thinking about how lonely he had been in the past ten years when he practiced alone. So many patterns can be made...

13 balls, which are an oval.

14 **** are two symmetrical arcs.

When 15 **** were placed, everyone gathered around involuntarily.

The 15 **** were coded into regular waves by Lin Yiyang, with double-layer waves.

Lin Yiyang aimed at a certain position, and in the silence of the room, he hit one shot, the waves were instantly knocked away, and all the **** were flying around the table "without rules", 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... ...Finally, the 15th ball stopped at the mouth of the pocket at an extremely slow speed, and then, with a soft sound, it was successfully pocketed.

Yin Guo saw his blood boil and applauded with everyone.

Before Lin Yiyang stopped, he took out 16 more **** and placed a four-pointed star on the table.

"This one has only been played once," Lin Yiyang said, correcting the position of the four-pointed star to make the shape more perfect, "It didn't work last time, try it today."

Lin Yiyang picked up a smart powder and wiped the club head.

After setting up the white ball, leaning over to aim, suddenly he slammed his arm and slammed it out—

The room was quiet.

Yin Guo held her breath, the sound of **** being dropped in her ears, and there were fewer and fewer **** on the table... Really all in!

16 **** in one shot, so beautiful!

Everyone couldn't help applauding for him, and there was laughter in their ears.

Li Qingyan, Nizi, and the two people from Beicheng had mixed feelings. They all thought of last year, the first time they met Lin Yiyang. No one knew what this strange man was called, where he came from, and how to impress him. Profound dismount... But look at today, really convinced.

Not only did they play well in the game, but even their own entertainment was an absolutely crushing existence.

Just like what the coach said at the beginning - people just looked at Meng Xiaodong's face and made fun of them.

***

At the beginning of the welcome banquet in the evening, the female players and the male players were divided into two tables.

Lin Yiyang was whispering to Jiang Yang, and when he picked up the chopsticks, he glanced over and caught her eye. There were two long tables with dozens of people, and the leader was speaking enthusiastically there, but he was looking at her.

Afraid of being seen, Yin Guo moved away for a few seconds with a guilty conscience, and then came back to find that Lin Yiyang was still looking at him... Behind him, a coach patted Lin Yiyang on the shoulder and called him away.

Yin Guo looked back, but found that Lin Lin had been watching with a smile for a long time.

"You two look like puppy love, sneaking." Lin Lin whispered.

Yin Guo was embarrassed and explained softly: "This was agreed before coming here. He is the captain, so he can't openly fall in love."

Lin Lin smiled and gave her a chopstick dish: "Did you know about your brother's abandonment when he was 13 years old?"

"Ok."

According to Meng Xiaodong's public information, he won the championship at the age of 14, but he entered the arena at the age of 13, but his performance was not ideal, and he withdrew from the game in the middle of the game.

"I guess there's something you don't know," Lin Lin said softly. "They all signed up for the competition at the age of 13. Your brother lost to Lin Yiyang in the group stage, so you gave up. The next year, your brother was rude. Jin, winning the championship is officially famous."

...

It's no wonder that my cousin "has a special liking" and "can't forget" about him. The frustration of abandoning the race in the first year is estimated to be remembered for a lifetime. It is no wonder that the coaches in the club always say that Lin Yiyang and Meng Xiaodong are players of the same period.

Lin Lin glanced at Jiang Yang and Meng Xiaodong on the opposite side, and said with emotion, "Jiang Yang also started playing in the national competition at the age of 13. In the years when they had an intersection, your brother retired in the first year, and Lin Yiyang retired in the last year. It’s also really interesting.”

Born in the same year, Lin Yiyang was a few months older than Meng Xiaodong, and he was the sixth in the rankings. They were all talented players.

It is no wonder that although they are strong enemies, they also sympathize with each other.

After dinner was over, Lin Yiyang didn't come back.

Yin Guo deliberately stayed until the end, wanting to see him before going to bed, and left the cafeteria disappointed when everyone was gone.

She walked out of the door of the cafeteria, and by the moonlight, she saw a few girls who came out ahead, just about to catch up, when she heard his voice calling her: Yin Guo.

Not only was she the one who stopped, but several girls also turned back subconsciously.

"Send you back to the dormitory." He walked over to her.

The girls immediately turned their heads back, trying to hold back their gossip, but the laughter couldn't be stopped.

"You came back specially?" She was laughed at with a guilty conscience.

My boyfriend, I don't know what's wrong...

Lin Yiyang did not deny it, suggesting that she was walking towards the playground, and Yin Guo followed in his footsteps.

In the end, the two walked around the playground twice and basked in the moon for a while. Yin Guo also thought that it would be good to walk around like this, so Lin Yiyang pulled it to find a hidden shade and hid it.

Yin Guo stood under the tree and looked up: "Isn't it going to drop bugs?"

Lin Yiyang put his hand on her head: "Are you still afraid of bugs?"

Yin Guo said "um": "I was bitten by a bug when I was a child, and it was bitten by a tree in the playground." She put her hands behind her back and touched a spot. "Have you not seen it? There is a scar here."

He laughed and said in a low voice, "I really didn't pay attention, I'll take a look next time."

She ignored the old hooligan's "hint", pretending she didn't understand, and played with the zipper in front of his training suit.

"What's wrong with pulling the zipper as soon as we meet?" He chuckled softly.

But since the old hooligan gave a hint, of course he wouldn't do nothing, so he finally found a place to back him. Lin Yiyang put his hands on the tree trunk and bowed his head to kiss her.

Suddenly something jumped out of the grass.

Yin Guo's heart skipped a beat, and she saw a small black shadow running out, unable to see what it was... Her heart was still beating so fast that her eyes were blocked by the shadow, and it was Lin Yiyang who kissed him again.

...

When they parted again, he was next to her lips, still kissing slowly. But she thought about dinner: "Lin Lin said that my brother quit the competition because of you? I admit it after hearing this, you are really better than my brother."

He nodded: "Your brother admitted it when he was 13 years old."

"...It's really not humble."

"On the field, there's no such thing as modesty," he said.

The two didn't have time for more dates, and ten minutes later, he sent her back to the dormitory.

After Yin Guo finished taking a bath, the lights were turned off at eleven o'clock. She blew her hair for two minutes in the dark and acted like a thief, took the makeup bag to the bed, and chatted with Lin Lin while applying skin care products.

Being able to live in the same room with Lin Lin was the biggest surprise, because I could hear a lot about Lin Yiyang's childhood from her mouth. However, there is also a downside. Lin Yiyang's family background casts a haze no matter how flamboyant those years were. No matter what Lin Lin said, she was heartbroken.

At about half past eleven, Lin Lin fell asleep.

Yin Guo turned off the notification sound and wanted to send him a WeChat message saying good night. With the phone in his hand, Lin Yiyang got news at the same time.

Lin: Enough talking?

Fruit in the forest: ...how did you know we were chatting.

Lin: Guess.

Fruit in the forest: Can you guess what we were talking about?

Lin: Most of the time, they are selling out for me.

Fruit in the forest: ... the guess is so accurate.

Lin::)

Lin: Open the window.

Yin Guo was startled when he saw these two words, and thought he was outside the window.

After thinking about it, it was impossible. The eleven o'clock break was a rule, and he would definitely not violate it as the captain. But still with an unstable heartbeat, he quietly got out of bed and opened the curtain.

The window opens slightly and pushes to the left.

Outside the window is a green bush, the leaves swaying slightly by the early morning wind. There was no one outside, but on the windowsill, there was an unopened piece of dark chocolate.

When did he put it on? When taking a bath?

Yin Guo quietly took the chocolate back, closed the window, and locked it.

Fruits in the Forest: When did you put it in?

Lin: Before leaving.

Lin: I stood outside the window for two minutes.

She guessed that he thought that this row of rooms were all girls' dormitories, so he didn't call her for fear of being seen after standing for a long time, and just put the dark chocolate with him on the windowsill. When it was a little surprise.

Fruit in the forest: Whoever you wanted to chase in the past, it is estimated that you can catch it all.

This is a word from the heart.

Lin: ?

Lin: Ask Lin Lin more about what I was like in the past.

Lin: It's impossible to chase anyone except you.
