As the saying goes, there are thousands of beauties in sports, half of whom are in figure skating. Sports fans are tired of saying this, as rhythmic gymnastics, synchronized swimming and figure skating have produced beauties since ancient times.
If someone asks what sport is both highly entertaining, visually challenging, and also very attractive, then regardless of gender, age or status, figure skating is the right choice.
The coaching staff reacted surprisingly calmly to the incident of Xie Yunjun being approached. Since he grew taller, this boy has completely shed his youthfulness. His stunning facial features are well complemented by his height of over 1.8 meters. Compared to his previous simple beauty, the boy now has a more handsome look.
As a result, every time Xie Yunjun goes out to compete, he receives a lot of flying kisses and flirtatious glances from the female contestants and some male contestants.
After Xie Yunjun made his debut on the ice after puberty, ice fans even built an 800-story building on the forum to compare Xie Yunjun with Japan's Yoshimaru Hyuga to see who is the most handsome male athlete in Asia.
Because there is such a group of contestants with good looks and good figures, when the youth and adult groups gathered at the Grand Prix Finals and appeared at the opening ceremony, the scene was comparable to a large-scale talent show.
Ice fans used all kinds of methods to support their favorite players, and all kinds of cheering banners densely covered the entire auditorium.
Of course, the most prominent presence was Japan's super popular men's singles player Yoshimaru Hinata. At the opening ceremony where fans could cheer as much as they wanted, Yoshimaru Hinata's fans almost turned the scene into a fan meeting.
When the Chinese ice fans watching the Grand Prix live broadcast channel saw that they had lost in momentum, they became anxious and wanted to go through the Internet to the scene to cheer for the Chinese team.
Everyone can only type frantically in the barrage.
[Calling Sister Yamamoto, why didn't I see Sister Yamamoto supporting Lu Xie today? Did the head of the mom's fan club not go? ]
[How is it possible? On Lu Xie Information Station, Yamamoto just updated yesterday's pre-match OP.]
[You can always trust that the lady sister will not miss any of Lu Xie's games. ]
[I was at the GPF (Grand Prix Finals) site. I seemed to see Sister Yamamoto when I entered the venue just now. She was carrying her cannon, but she didn't buy a VIP seat today. It seems that she only bought a B-class ticket.]
[No way, the lady sister has become poor from watching the game? ]
[Hahahahaha fuck! No wonder Sister Yamamoto didn’t take the VIP seat today! Everyone, look at those two big posters! ]
In the audience, Yamamoto Nanako turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside. She wore a baseball cap and carefully adjusted the camera. She took out two pieces of folded cloth from her backpack, shook them, and waved her hands -
There was a loud bang in the sky, and the lady sister made a brilliant appearance.
【Lu Xie Xiaolin! Invincible! 】
【Flower planting representative! Strive for excellence! 】
Two huge cheering banners appeared, printed with photos of the Lu Xie group and Lin Yinian, plus these two cheering slogans.
As for why Jiang Ran and Yu Botao are not there... it's because the lady sister knows very well that the world number one no longer needs her special support, and many international ice fans will spontaneously cheer for him.
For example, the ice fan sitting in the middle of the first row of VIP seats, don't think I didn't see that your banner is double-sided! After Yoshimaru Hinata skates past, you can flip it and turn it into a banner for Jiang Yu!
There are three levels of tickets for the Grand Prix finals, namely VIP ice seats from the first to third rows, A-level seats in the stands from the third to fifteenth rows, and B-level seats on the high platform after the fifteenth row.
The B-level seats have a low attendance rate because you can't see the players' faces and movements, and you can't throw flowers and dolls into the ice rink at the end of the show. But this is undoubtedly the most spacious and most eye-catching highest point in the entire venue.
Therefore, as soon as these two three-meter-long cheering banners appeared, they immediately became the most conspicuous presence in the entire venue.
"Whose ice fan is this?"
"Who is printed on the poster?"
Yoshimaru Hinata, who was interacting with his fans, burst out laughing, pulled over the three Chinese players, and said in a friendly manner: "These are the new generation of players from China. I hope everyone can cheer for them when the time comes."
After doing all this, Nanako Yamamoto lifted her delicate curly hair, sat down gracefully, and took out her newly purchased telescope, pointing it at the center of the ice rink.
It was the first time that Xue Chengze had seen such hardcore support. He stared at the stands with an expression that said, "There is such a thing." Jiang Yang picked up the thermos cup, took a sip of water, and responded with an expression that said, "There is such a thing."
Then he continued to calmly fold bath towels for the three little players of the Chinese team to wipe their sweat later.
After Lu You and Xie Yunjun finished their appearance, they took Lin Yinian with them and waved towards the poster.
Nanako Yamamoto curled her red lips, hiding her achievements and fame.
In this Grand Prix finals, the youth group competition was arranged before the adult group. When the staff member walked up to Lin Yinian with a small cloth bag for drawing lots, the kid touched it casually and found that it was the lucky draw for the third appearance.
- You don't have to bear the pressure of being the first to appear, nor do you have to face the ice surface full of scratches and ice pits left by the tough players.
As for the last person drawn in the youth men's singles... Arturo took a look at his draw, without any sense of being a loser. He felt that he was lucky. He happily rubbed against Lu You, took off his cross pendant and placed it in her palm.
Lu You looked at Arturo and said, "I heard that last year, with the recommendation of Coach Eugene, you officially became a naturalized Canadian athlete. Congratulations."
Arturo took Lu You's hand affectionately and said, "Thanks to you and everyone's help, otherwise I might have given up figure skating."
Lin Yinian looked at Arturo, then at Xie Yunjun who was standing beside him with a calm demeanor, and thought that this was probably the calmness of a wife.
Lu You stroked the slightly curly black hair of the young Colombian boy, and smiled at this brother who was two or three years younger than him: "In just one year, he was able to pick up all three spins and even trained 4T to enter the JGPF. That's amazing."
Arturo looked at Lu You's motherly smile and felt a little frustrated. He lowered his head, sighed helplessly, and let go of Lu You.
Then he pointed to the cross pendant and said, "You, I'll lend this to you. I'll take it to church every Sunday. God will surely grant you great luck."
Seeing this, the young Japanese players Anjo Haruna and Yoshioka Kentaro also took out a small amulet and shyly handed it to Lu You: "The most powerful god is enshrined in Sensō-ji Temple. If contestant Lu doesn't mind, please let it help you."
Lu You: It’s a sure thing, I will definitely draw an extremely good lot today!
So, Lu You wore the red rope that Liang Jie had blessed in Mount Wutai on his hand, a Catholic cross around his neck, and a Sensō-ji lucky charm in his pocket. With the blessings of gods from three different countries, he turned negatives into positives and came out in first place in the short program.
Lu You: “…” Cheating consumers, right?
Anjo Haruna: "Hmm... um... the god-sama of Sensō-ji Temple might still be on his way."
Arturo: "Well, Allah probably doesn't understand the rules of figure skating very well."
Lu You pursed his lips, returned the things one by one, then walked up to Xie Yunjun, hugged his waist, and raised his little face: "Your hands are so black."
Xie Yunjun touched the top of her head, and a red string appeared on her bony wrist: "Next time, I'll lend you my luck."
The two returned to the rest area and told the coaching staff the bad news. Lu Tingsong's eyebrows twitched, but he still comforted them, "It's okay. There is only one group in the finals at most. The order of appearance will not have a big impact."
Lu You: But I’m still angry.jpg
The schedule of this year's Grand Prix is relatively tight, with the youth group in the morning and the adult group in the afternoon. The short program will be completed on the first day.
The men's singles in the youth group was the second event in the morning.
Lin Yinian took off his down jacket, revealing a light lake blue coat underneath. The sequins on the hem sparkled with shimmering light. Although he was not tall, he had a well-proportioned body, with a slender figure, a graceful posture, and a hint of cool temperament. Standing there, he looked like a bunch of slender magnolias.
His short program this year is "Water Flower Moon". I heard that the clothes he is wearing were made by his mother.
Xue Chengze stood behind Lin Yinian and tried to comb up her ear-length hair, but it turned out to be crooked. Finally, Lu Tingsong couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "Teacher Xue, you don't want your child to play like this, do you?"
Even if Lin Yinian is good-looking, she can't be so casual!
Xue Chengze coughed twice and said, "In the past, there were always female coaches who would help. Aren't all the leaders this time men?"
Lu Tingsong said, "Let Xiaojun do it. He has been combing Youyou's hair since he was a child, so he has experience."
Upon hearing this, Lu You nodded and immediately contributed his rubber band and comb.
Xie Yunjun walked over to Lin Yinian, looked at her for a while, and said, "Your hair can't be tied up completely, can I tie it up in a small bun for you?"
Lin Yinian was not picky: "I'm fine with either."
So Xie Yunjun braided two small braids for Lin Yinian, just like she did when she braided Lu You's hair when they were children, and then half-grabbed her hair together with the rest of the hair to make a small ponytail.
Lu You rummaged through her precious dressing bag and found a lake blue ribbon.
Xie Yunjun took it and tied it on, tying it tightly, leaving a ribbon tail fluttering in the wind at just the right length, which looked good and would not cover the eyes when jumping.
"Xiaojun's cooking skills are really good." Xue Chengze praised.
Lu Tingsong answered for Xie Yunjun: "Practice makes perfect."
In the following competition, Lin Yinian received unanimous praise after his appearance in this look.
As for his styling consultant Xie Yunjun and styling assistant Lu You, they had already gone to eat early so that they could come back early to warm up before the game.
The short program of pair skating comes right after ice dancing and is the first event in the afternoon. If you don’t finish your meal and digest it in advance, you will easily get diarrhea if you are nervous before the competition.
Huai City, China.
When Nie Hanhan walked to the sofa and sat down with the help of a walker, Han Feiyang just came out of the kitchen carrying a basin of washed winter dates.
Nie Hanhan smiled and picked up a winter jujube and put it in her mouth: "Are the winter jujubes on the market this year? My coach didn't let me eat them before, but now I want to eat as much as I can!"
Han Feiyang looked helplessly at his female companion, oh, of course she was now his girlfriend, he asked: "How are your legs, can you use them?"
"It's OK. I think I recovered pretty quickly," Nie Hanhan said while chewing dates. "But Brother Yang, are you really determined to retire with me? The team said they can pair you with a female partner who switched from women's singles. I think you can skate for at least another two years."
Nie Hanhan just had surgery on her waist last month and had steel nails inserted in the fractured area. She will need another surgery to remove the steel nails a year later. Although it has little impact on her basic life, Nie Hanhan can no longer perform high-intensity training related to figure skating within this year.
If a player doesn't train for a year, he will basically be useless. Apart from retiring, Nie Hanhan has no other choice.
If Nie Hanhan had not come out of her low period with Han Feiyang's guidance, she wouldn't be as healthy and enjoy eating as she is now.
Facing the persuasion of his female companion, Han Feiyang was very firm: "Didn't I say that you are my only female companion in my career? If I want to slide, I will slide. If I don't want to slide, I won't slide."
Nie Hanhan: "Yeah, but I still think it's a pity that you don't skate, and Sister Ranran and Brother Botao are about to retire. If you don't skate, then our country will really only have Lu Xie and this pair of little doubles left."
Han Feiyang patted her head and said, "Don't underestimate Lu You and Xie Yunjun. They are competitive players who can perform better under pressure. Moreover, their difficulty reserves are not worse than ours. If I team up with others, my results may not be better than theirs."
"And even if I win a gold medal with others, it won't be the gold medal I dream of."
After listening to this, Nie Hanhan pulled Han Feiyang over, hugged his head and kissed him.
Facing the stunned Han Feiyang, she threw another date into her mouth: "Nothing, I'm just a little touched, I want to kiss you, Brother Yang."
Han Feiyang didn't know where to put his hands.
"What? No way, are you still shy? Except for the fact that we didn't have a legitimate relationship before, everything else was pretty much like being in a relationship, right?"
Han Feiyang thought about it and felt that what Nie Hanhan said made some sense. Except for the fact that they did not express their feelings to each other and did not officially stamp their relationship as lovers, they were really like lovers in other aspects.
After realizing this, Han Feiyang's slight confusion caused by his change of identity quickly disappeared.
As the Winter Olympics approached, figure skating competitions, which had rarely been broadcast, also benefited and received attention from CCTV. When Nie Hanhan was transferred to CCTV-5, the ice dance competition had just ended and the adult pair skating competition was about to begin.
Nie Hanhan held the dates in one hand and her boyfriend in the other: "I want to see which unlucky guy gets to be the first to appear..."
"The next, form China, You Lu & Yunjun Xie!"
Nie Hanhan: “…”
Well, they are the unlucky ones.
