Chapter 638: Decision to withdraw from the national team
Yan Chi shook his head, "I don't know."
Although he is almost 15 years old, he is not yet an adult after all. He is still a little confused and doesn't know what to do. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept it in his heart for so long, leading to such a big change.
Lin Yuzhu did not make a decision for him, but asked again: "If you continue to stay and fail to achieve good results, will you be willing to take medicine?"
Yan Chi said without thinking: "I don't want to, I won't eat it!"
Lin Yuzhu nodded, "That's good, but what if the coach insists that you eat it? Can you refuse?"
Yan Chi was silent. In fact, the coach had asked him to eat more than once. After he refused, the coach did not punish him, but he also stopped training with him. He had been training on his own during this period, so his grades improved very little. That was why his parents were called to the call.
Lin Yuzhu knew from his expression that he was unwilling, so she asked again: "If I asked you to quit the national team, would you be willing? Or would you feel reluctant?"
Yan Chi shook his head and said, "No, I am willing to quit. In fact, I have been thinking about this before, but I don't know how to tell you. After all, you were all very happy when I first joined the national team. I am afraid that if I quit before I have achieved any results, you will be disappointed."
"How come?"
Shuyao touched Yanchi's head and said, "How could mom be disappointed? Your dad and I are happy because you are happy. We respect your choice, but have you really thought it through?
If you quit, you won't be able to participate in the Olympics again, and you may face obstacles in future competitions. Are you willing to give up after training for so many years? Will you regret it in the future?"
Yan Chi nodded seriously, "I won't regret it, Mom, I know what you mean, but I never participate in swimming competitions to win, I just like the feeling of being in the water, it's very free.
Even if I don't participate in the competition, I will still be able to swim in the future and I won't regret it. I just let my parents down by not being able to participate in the Olympics."
Lin Yuzhu smiled and said, "What's the big deal? You are already very good. Even if you don't participate in the Olympics, you are still a good son to your mother. We won't be disappointed."
After hearing this, Yan Chi finally felt relieved.
So, the family decided to go to the national team the next day to discuss withdrawing from the team.
Yan Chi put his worries aside and finally went back to sleep relaxedly.
On the contrary, Lin Yuzhu and the other person who returned to the room were in a complicated mood. Zhao Yanshu sighed and said, "Why do you think they did this?"
Lin Yuzhu knew what he was asking, and just sighed: "Maybe our country is still too weak."
"So, do you think our country will be strong in the future?"
"It will definitely happen!" Lin Yuzhu said firmly: "It will definitely happen. Our country will definitely be very powerful in the future. It will become a superpower and a sports powerhouse. We will never rely on these tricks to win again."
Seeing how determined she was, Zhao Yanshu also smiled, "Well, you're right."
Then, the two of them stopped talking.
That night, Lin Yuzhu had a dream. She dreamed that decades later in her previous life, she saw on TV that China won 40 gold medals and hundreds of medals in the new Olympic Games, ranking first in the medal table, becoming a veritable sports power...
And among the athletes from those countries found to have taken doping, not a single one was from their country...
