Chapter 14 Lights
Chapter 14 Lights
The post-match replay went on until two o'clock in the morning. Nan Ke densely wrote more than a dozen pages of notes, and two people, the data analyst, carefully analyzed the nearly three-hour game. Qu Yi listened to himself Yes, while keeping an eye on his teammates, he also had to take into account the rhythm of the entire game. After listening to five games, he was really tired.
KM's next game is a week later. After the resumption, the coach didn't train again, and let everyone go back to the room to sleep. Qu Yi stayed in the training room and planned to watch a few more games. He just sat down and planned to turn on the tablet. , Nan Ke pushed the door open and came in. He directly took the tablet from Qu Yi's hand, and said in a non-negotiable voice, "Go to sleep."
"Coach me..." Qu Yi stretched out his hand to snatch the tablet from Nan Ke's hand. When he raised his head, he happened to bump into Nan Ke's gaze. The gaze was calm but undeniably strict. Forgot what to say.
Qu Yi stood up and confronted Nan Ke for a moment, then he lowered his head and took half a step back: "Okay, I'll go to sleep."
Qu Yi shuffled out, always feeling that Nan Ke was not normal today, he even looked at him a few times before going out, but found nothing.Nan Ke kept staring at his back, and didn't turn around until he went upstairs.He put the tablet on Qu Yi's countertop, and then carefully swept over his desk, tidying up the messy things thrown on it one by one, collected the garbage, rubbed his temples, it was late at night, he really didn't care Great for staying up late.He turned off the light and walked up the stairs to his room. Every time he went up a step, he felt powerless. He really wasn't young anymore. He was thirty. How long can he wait? Can he afford it?
Back in the room, the girl who just had a blind date a few days ago sent him a good night message. It was more than two hours ago. He closed his phone, thought about it, and sent another message to the girl. Replay with the team, good night.
Maybe there will be a time to get together and part in life, maybe the fate has not been done, who can explain it.
The days of training, day after day, are boring and boring.
Just after lunch, the aunt at the base greeted Qu Yi with a box in her arms: "Captain, captain your delivery."
Qu Yi gnawed half of the apple. While thinking about what he bought, he wiped his hands and went to his aunt. The courier waited aside, looked at Qu Yi's team uniform and said enviously: "This is what you usually train. It’s a place where I often watch your games, and this dress is so pretty.”
After signing the form, Qu Yi slightly turned his body to let the courier boy's eyes widen: "Thank you, thank you for liking."
The courier boy didn't delay, he took the order and waved his hand, and hurried to the next place. Everyone is busy with life, good or bad is life.
Qu Yi took the package from his aunt, and tore open the courier bag roughly as he walked. However, he was dumbfounded the moment he tore it open. On the delicate white velvet bag, there was a small logo printed on the lower right corner——AEssar .K, Qu Yi was taken aback, a top trendy brand with a starting price of [-]?No matter how rich Qu Yi is, he never spends money in these places on weekdays. The only few items at home are all brought back from abroad by Qu Sheng. , Confirming that the authentic product is undoubtedly true, I thought to myself, could it be that Qu Sheng bought this one again?
He disassembled half of it and didn't dare to dismantle it again. He casually put it in his arms, grabbed the mobile phone on the dining table and went upstairs.
Behind him, 23 even called him without a wink, but Qu Yi ignored him.
There was no one in the dormitory, so Qu Yi took out the contents of the package and carefully looked at the express delivery note. The delivery information was from China, but the place was very strange.He stared at the things on the bed, the pure white and smooth outer bag, sealed at the top, brand new.After thinking for a moment, he sat down and opened the seal, peeling off the packaging bag to reveal a well-crafted box with the brand name neatly printed on the box and tied with a dark blue gift knot.Open it again, and there is a neat white and gray shirt, which looks clean and fresh, which matches Qu Yi's temperament very well.He rummaged through the box, and took a closer look at the clothes, and found that the tag had been cut off, and there was nothing in front and back. He threw the things on the bed, and called Qu Sheng first.
It was just dawn over there, but Qu Sheng woke up. She was a little surprised when she received a call from Qu Yi: "Hey, handsome guy, you called me suddenly, what's wrong?"
Qu Yi cut to the chase: "Have you bought me clothes yet?"
"Huh? Shopping for clothes?" She was probably doing something, ping-pong-pong, "No, I'm so poor that I can't get rid of it. What are you buying? Has someone bought you clothes?"
Qu Yi held the phone, and he had a bad feeling in his heart, so he confirmed it again: "You really didn't buy it?"
"No, I'm really poor. Hey, tell me, who bought you clothes? You don't know how to fall in love, do you? You..."
"Hang up." When it comes to gossip, he only obeys Qu Sheng, but now he is anxious to find out who gave it to him, and he doesn't have the heart to listen to Qu Sheng's nagging.
Lin Yihan's number in the address book was lying quietly. Qu Yi stared at it. The more he stared, the more he felt that his mind was not clear. What if not?more embarrassing.
He packed the shirts intact and stuffed them into the closet. Finally, he threw a few more clothes on top so that no one would see them.
In the next two days, Qu Yi received backpacks, sweaters, necklaces, and watches one after another.Rao is that Qu Yi occasionally buys something online, but such frequent purchases inevitably make people suspicious, and every time, after Qu Yi receives it, he will not open it in public. He does not dare to ask others if he does not open it. Think again. When he got up, Qu Yi had already hidden those things somewhere, not even Chu Tian, who was in the same dormitory with him, knew.
Another evening, just after the training match, Qu Yi went downstairs to get a glass of water and was about to go upstairs when his aunt stopped him again. What Qu Yi feared most now was hearing his aunt's voice, so he turned around with difficulty. , once again, I saw the courier brother who I met frequently recently, the courier brother was not very emotional, he smiled and waved and called Qu Yi: "Team Qu, your courier." People called Qu Yi and Qu Team like people, but the voice was too loud. The eyes of the people sitting and resting downstairs immediately gathered and stared at Qu Yi. The courier boy rushed out, he took the form and pen, and carefully read the sender and address on it, but it was a completely new address, and there was no duplicate of the one he received before.His hands were trembling when he signed. Every day, he received some expensive international brands, but the sender hadn't contacted him for a long time. Could it be that there are people who do good deeds without leaving their names?He must not have been secretly sold by someone, to some rich woman or something, I was terrified to think about it.Qu Yi originally thought that the enemy will not move and I will not move, but if he continues to send it like this, he really can't explain it.
What I received this time was a box of imported snacks. The moment I opened the box, I finally felt relieved. Finally, he didn't have to sneak around hiding those things. He called someone over: "What do you want to eat?" Take whatever you want."
23 draped Fei Yu's shoulders and joked, "Captain Qu has found out with conscience, planning to bribe us to hide the evidence?"
Qu Yi understood what he meant, but he really couldn't say anything. He grabbed a bag of potato chips and poked them into his arms: "Eat yours, nothing can stop your mouth."
A group of people were having a good time eating, when Fei Yu suddenly took out a black velvet box from the box, he thought it was some kind of small object, and opened it without thinking, but the moment he opened it, he was dumbfounded, he was stunned After a while, he patted Qu Yi's leg beside him: "Team Qu, here, there is a ring inside."
For a moment, the whole room was quiet, and everyone looked at Qu Yi blankly as if the pause button had been pressed.
Qu Yi's heart rose to his throat in an instant, he turned his head, a beautiful men's ring stood in the middle, behind the ring was Liuguang's logo - ONElove. He snapped the box shut, snatched the ring and put it on in a hurry Lou, the crowd behind him stared at him dumbfounded, without reacting for a long time.
Qu Yi locked the door of the dormitory, and dialed Lin Yihan's phone number directly. The other party seemed to be waiting for him, but he was picked up as soon as it rang. Lin Yihan's voice was calm: "Hello."
The surroundings were quiet, Qu Yi stood in front of the window, it was already dark outside, and when the lights were turned on, he was straightforward, with a bit of anger, looking aggressive: "What do you mean?"
Lin Yihan over there suddenly fell silent, and there was only a faint sound of breathing on the phone for a while, even if Qu Yi was angry, he would not be able to vent at this moment.
His intuition was not right, and he was about to speak when the person over there said solemnly, "I want to see you."
Qu Yi's breath stagnated, he restrained his emotions, and softened for a while: "Are you okay?"
He knows Lin Yihan's character, and the relationship between them has always been unclear. Although Lin Yihan hinted at it intentionally or unintentionally from time to time, he has never made too many excessive demands. Even if Qu Yi didn't mean that, as a friend, he suddenly became depressed , I should also say a few words of comfort.
"All right?" he asked again.
"You, where are you?" Qu Yi stuttered suddenly, and he didn't know why he stuttered.
"I'll let the driver pick you up, okay?"
Qu Yi wanted to refuse in his heart, but he couldn't say it when he got to the point of his mouth. When he recalled this passage later, he always felt that he was ridiculously kind and innocent at that time.
"it is good."
Qu Yi and Sister Yang asked for leave in a hurry, they didn't say what to do, they only said that they had some personal matters, Sister Yang was considerate and didn't ask any further, she approved the leave for him, told him to pay attention to safety and come back early, Qu Yi simply changed He put on his clothes, put the ring in his bag, and as soon as he went downstairs, Lin Yihan's car arrived.
The car stopped at the corner of the base, not at the door. Qu Yi and Nan Ke, the sister Yang who sent them out, waved and walked over quickly. In a black suit, he was sitting in the car and looking at him.The eyes of the two people collided suddenly, and it seemed inappropriate to advance or retreat for a moment. Qu Yi subconsciously looked at Sister Yang and Nan Ke who were still standing at the door, gritted his teeth, and got into the car.
He can't strengthen himself, he thought.
The fact is that Lin Yihan did not do anything out of the ordinary to him, he took him to a western restaurant, the whole process was unexpectedly quiet, only the tiredness in the corners of his eyes and brows was shaking vividly.
From the base to now, Lin Yihan only said three short sentences, one sentence to him, one sentence to come, another sentence to the driver, the location, and the last sentence to the waiter, two.
Today's Lin Yihan's abnormality surprised Qu Yi, even though he was thinking about how to speak to Lin Yihan all the way, but the atmosphere was so weird that he could only swallow the words.
After all, it was Lin Yihan who spoke first, rubbing his brows: "Today is the anniversary of my parents' death."
In an instant, all the words fell from his throat and fell into his stomach. Qu Yi sat there blankly, his mind went blank. He used to wonder why Lin Yihan worked so hard for four seasons. Now, he seemed to understand a little bit more.
"Are you ok?"
The person on the opposite side looked up at him, the corners of his eyes were a little red, but his expression was indifferent, as if the past had been a long time ago and no longer mattered: "It's okay, they passed away for many years, and they came back from other places today, just want to see you."
"see me?"
The man paused: "Well, I miss you."
Qu Yi swallowed choked, and took a sip from the water glass in embarrassment. He still couldn't accept a man saying such strange words to himself, and his body was covered with sticky goose bumps.
Lin Yihan probably saw his resistance, so he changed the subject directly to what Qu Yi wanted to hear: "Did you get a ring?"
Qu Yi blinked a few times, and finally regained his senses. He silently took out the small box from his bag and handed it over. Lin Yihan took it, opened it, and explained, "This is from the brand owner yesterday. It should be It accidentally fell into it while packing snacks." He took out the ring, "reach out."
"Huh?" Qu Yi reacted quickly, should he bring it for himself?this......
Before he finished thinking, Lin Yihan directly grabbed Qu Yi's wrist, pulled the man's hand over, and then put the ring on Qu Yi's will.The moment he put it on, the ring fell loosely on the ring finger, which was obviously inappropriate. Lin Yihan held his finger, and when he understood it, he took off the ring and threw it into the box: "Believe it now."
The plot reversed too quickly, the strength on the wrist was still there, there was a burning sensation for no reason, and the fingers hurt a little from being clenched, Qu Yi withdrew his hand, feeling mixed feelings in his heart for a moment.
"As for those clothes and fashion brands, they were all sent to me by the brand. Some of them are not suitable for me to wear. I don't have many friends, and I can't give them away. If you don't like them, just throw them away." He kept holding back Looking at those valuable things, talking about throwing them seems to be just throwing some useless small objects, which is so calm that it makes people feel angry.Qu Yi also had to admit that the things Lin Yihan gave him, the size, color, and even the temperament of wearing them, all fit him very well, as if they were tailor-made, it would be a pity to lose them.
So far, Lin Yihan has explained everything Qu Yi wanted to ask.
Throughout the night, Lin Yihan seemed unusually quiet, with a cold and alienated air about him. Qu Yi wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak or where to start, so he had to give up in the end.
And the weird atmosphere between the two has also rapidly intensified from the previous unknown embarrassment to a real embarrassment.
After eating, the two of them sat in the restaurant for a while, Kuncheng looked a little deserted in the night, from the transparent glass of the restaurant, the lights were dim, but there were very few people with warmth, Qu Yi squinted his eyes , For some reason, I thought of Lin Yihan who was on the side. The city was brightly lit, but none of them were lit by him.
"I want to go out to smoke a cigarette, do you want to go with me?" Lin Yihan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, his voice hoarse with exhaustion.Qu Yi nodded, took the bag on the chair and followed him out of the restaurant.
Lin Yihan stood in the rest area not far from the side of the restaurant and lit a cigarette.The transparent glass window reflected his appearance, he squinted his eyes, let the smoke spread over his face, and remained silent.
Qu Yi leaned on the sofa in the rest area, and followed him to look outside.
"Do you have someone you like?" After a long time, Lin Yihan shook off the cigarette ash, held the cigarette between his fingers, and asked abruptly.
Qu Yi propped his hands by his side, not meeting the man's gaze, his voice was distant and light, without the slightest hesitation: "No."
The smoke drifted over from Lin Yihan, Qu Yi raised his hand and fanned it, and after a while, Lin Yihan wringed out the cigarette in his hand.
"I have."
Qu Yi's heart suddenly felt as if he had been hit by something, he lowered his head, as if he had already guessed what Lin Yihan was going to say next.
Lin Yihan's eyes fell on the unclear shadow in the glass. The man with his head down seemed to have closed his ears, and his body was covered with thorns. If he opened his mouth, he would stab you bloody and bloody, and then he refused cruelly.
The little hope in his heart was put away after all, Lin Yihan smiled self-deprecatingly, the long-lost seriousness in his eyes was sealed again, he turned around, and patted Qu Yi on the shoulder: "Let's go, I'll see you off." go back."
Another peaceful breakup.
