The five Olympic rings were faintly visible under the white ice, and applause and cheers mixed together and exploded in my ears.
Lu You maintained the Ending Pose while bending down, and was pulled by Xie Yunjun, so that her whole body was pressed against the boy's hot and heaving chest. She raised her hands and wrapped her slender arms around her male companion's neck.
The overwhelming applause is not as loud as the sound of the hearts beating closely and strongly at this moment.
A season of running around, limit-pushing training, and sleepless nights of pain all seem insignificant at this moment.
Made it!
At the Olympics! We performed a flawless short program together!
This was the only thought left in Lu You's mind at the moment. She suddenly felt her nose sore. When she looked up, she met Xie Yunjun's eyes filled with a myriad of emotions.
Her eyes became hot and tears welled up in them.
Xie Yunjun touched her face: "What's wrong?"
"I'm so excited that I want to cry," Lu You sniffed and laughed out loud, "but I'm afraid that I won't cry well and someone will take ugly photos of me."
When she said this, the girl's red eyes were already full of tears, as if stars were falling into them.
Under the camera, Xie Yunjun raised his hand to cover Lu You's eyes, kissed her lightly through his palm, then pressed his female companion into his arms, tightly blocking the camera for her.
Two pools of water spread out on his chest.
At this moment, Li Yan in the audience had gone crazy. She screamed and threw dolls and flowers onto the ice rink like a pea shooter.
Then a female voice, even more ecstatic than hers, came from the side. Yamamoto Nanako's shutter flashed a phantom, and the Japanese lady kept muttering: "Sparacis! Sparacis!"
Li Yan, who was very into the second dimension, naturally understood that this meant "awesome" in Japanese. She couldn't help but say, "Modo Modo!"
After saying that, she even nudged Ren Chengfu who was sitting in front of her. She looked so excited that she was about to faint: "Uncle, what are you standing there for? Throw the doll! You are so strong that you can definitely throw it accurately!
When Yamamoto Nanako heard this, she immediately came over and said, "I'll leave these two headbands to you as well!"
"Don't worry, sister, leave it to me!"
Ren Chengfu patted his chest, followed suit, and swung his arms.
Snap—Snap!
The two headbands bounced on Lu You's forehead one after another, knocking back the hot tears that she had not yet shed. Lu You was no longer sentimental, wiped her tears on Xie Yunjun's chest, picked up the two headbands that fell at her feet, and chose one to put on her head.
Before she could speak, Xie Yunjun had already grasped her waist and lifted her straight body up. The young man raised his head slightly, resting his chin on the girl's belly, and said lazily: "I don't want to bend over after doing Bellman, so just help me put it on like this."
Lu You laughed muffledly twice and stuck the little monster headband on the boy's head.
When her fingertips stroked his earlobe, a hint of pink appeared there, which Lu You ignored.
After being lifted up, Lu You's vision became wider. She quickly found the location of Yamamoto Nanako, waved towards her and blew her a kiss.
Yamamoto Nanako: "Hehehe, he is indeed mom's caring little cotton-padded jacket. He can always find mom no matter where she sits!"
Li Yan: Damn it! Tears are streaming down my face! I must create a few more fanarts when I get back, so that my childhood sweethearts will also recognize me!
Lu You, who didn't know that he would have more fan art in the future, was being held, so he simply used his sleeve to wipe Xie Yunjun's sweat. As a result, he heard Xue Chengze's roar as soon as he got off the ice: "Lu Xiaoyou, don't use Kosten as a rag! What if he wants to pass it on to your junior sister!"
Lu You touched her nose. She always felt that after the head coach had been with her uncle for a long time, his speech began to roar.
Besides, the General Administration has allocated a lot of funds to figure skating this year! When will the tradition of taking the old coats of the seniors to the dry cleaners and giving them to the juniors to continue wearing stop?
Although Lu You complained in her heart, she didn't continue to abuse Kosten. She was put down by Xie Yunjun. She took the knife sheath and towel handed to her by Jiang Yang, wiped the sweat off her face and neck, and stuffed the towel into Xie Yunjun's hand.
Xie Yunjun picked up the towel very easily and continued using it.
Lu You squatted down and pressed his heel. He felt uncomfortable in his skates and said to the coach, "My feet hurt a little again. Let's change into sneakers."
Xue Chengze hissed and hurried to turn over Lu You's shoes. Jiang Yang raised his neck and looked around: "Xu Yangbing! Xu Yangbing, come here quickly!"
Xu Yangbing's eyes were dead: "I'm sitting behind you."
"Change your shoes and go get your share first," Xue Chengze handed Lu You's shoes over, "Don't delay Margaret and Fei Qi from going on stage."
Both kids got a four for all the rated moves and did not make any mistakes in the difficult jumps. Moreover, this SP has become a mature program after a season of polishing. In order to understand the characters, they have watched the movie so many times that it is no exaggeration to say that when the movie is broadcast on TV, Lu You can seamlessly connect to the next line.
As long as the referee can score with conscience, today's score will not be too low.
When Lu You was holding a piece of paper and blowing his nose in front of the camera without caring about his fairy image, the score was finally announced.
Jiang Yang read it line by line.
"Technical factor score: 48.15. Wow, so high. Is it finally time to show off today?"
"Program content score: 37.71, sloppy, still the same familiar formula."
"Total score for short program: 85.86. Hey, why are there a few letters at the end? PB stands for personal best, yeah, that's right. What is WR? It looks familiar and strange at the same time..."
Xue Chengze looked at him with disdain: "World Record, world record, you don't even know this?"
"I don't know what happened," Jiang Yang said, "I've never taught a student who broke a world record. Hey, maybe you don't know, this is the first time I've seen a world record live. But how come WR showed up now?"
Xue Chengze: "That is to say, Jiang Ran and Yu Botao wanted to break the world record this year, but they were intercepted by someone else..."
As the two coaches spoke, their voices became lower and lower, and then they looked at each other.
Xue Chengze: "The person who broke the record..."
Jiang Yang: "It seems to be us?"
Coaching team: pupil earthquake.jpg
Xu Yangbing: I see you guys are not quite awake, shall I give you both an injection on the forehead?
Lu You ignored the coach who was standing next to her with an expressionless face. She seemed to be calm as she picked up the water cup and brought it to her lips, but in fact, her lips were trembling slightly when they touched the rim of the cup.
Xie Yunjun held her hand, and when she felt the familiar body temperature, Lu You felt that things were a little more real.
She knew their score would be good this time, the best ever, but she didn't expect it to be this good.
Lu You secretly pinched the palm of his hand.
Yeah, it hurts.
It means she wasn't dreaming.
The original short program world record was 84.57 points, set by Russia's Apollova and Biman at the European Championships a month ago. No one would have thought that just one month later, the world record would be raised by one point!
Moreover, the ones who broke the world record were not the top favorites to win the championship, but a pair of young athletes who were not yet adults!
There were sounds of people gasping for air at the scene.
Guan Lin was stunned for a few seconds, then excitedly approached the microphone: "This is a big surprise! Lu You and Xie Yunjun broke the world record for the short program! This is their first time participating in the Olympics!"
"We all know that setting a world record requires both technical and performance points. There has never been a world record with a difference of ten points between T and P, but they did it in excellent condition! This is a world record that was achieved with technical difficulty! Incredible!"
The male commentator then said: "It is understood that the AB combination of the big goose will also use the difficult 3ATh throw jump in this year's Winter Olympics. This competition is destined to be a collision of top difficulty. It's so exciting!"
Figure skating is a precise sport, which not only refers to the athlete's condition but also to the calculation of scores. Sometimes a difference of a few tenths of a point may mean missing out on the podium.
Margaret, Feiqi and the next group of American and Russian players took a deep breath and their expressions became solemn.
Ren Chengfu turned around and asked Li Yan: "This has broken the world record, and you say this is not the best in our country, so it's not too much for these two kids to win a silver medal, right?"
Li Yan had just recovered from her shock. She shook her head and said, "In the free skating, you can do a quadruple move. Russia's AB and our Jiang Yu both have the ability to do a quadruple twist and quad throw at the same time. As long as they perform cleanly, 90% of the gold and silver medals will come from these two combinations."
But the bronze medal is uncertain.
This year, the favorites to win the bronze medal in pairs skating have been between Italy and the United States. Both pairs have been in the adult category for more than seven years and are veterans of the previous Olympics. Therefore, although the General Administration's target of "securing the gold medal and striving for the bronze medal" has not changed, it is just a slogan and they do not really expect Lu You and Xie Yunjun to bring back an individual medal.
But now that this world record has been released today, this indicator is likely to be truly implemented.
After all, Lu You and Xie Yunjun have always performed very stably, with the highest clean rate among all pairs players. This year's short program also proved to everyone that using technical difficulty to fill performance points, which sounds like a fantasy, is actually feasible.
When the music of Margaret and Fei Qi's short program sounded on the field, Lu You and Xie Yunjun left Kiss&Cry with the coaching team.
Nanako Yamamoto's camera has been following the two of them and never left. She looked at Lu You, whose steps were obviously one deep and one shallow, and felt distressed but helpless. Injuries are something that every athlete will experience. Ordinary people cannot avoid various diseases, let alone athletes who have to diet and train intensively at the same time.
They are not gods. Without the uniforms of athletes, they are just two children who have not yet reached the legal age of adulthood.
Lu You had Achilles tendonitis in her right foot, which happened to be the foot where she landed on the ice. She was very excited on the field just now and had been moving around a lot, so it was still within her tolerable range. However, when she sat in the KC area for a while and then stood up again, she gasped in pain.
"Old Xu, follow me."
“Here I come.”
When Lu You and Xie Yunjun entered the exit passage, Xu Yangbing, urged by Jiang Yang, also pushed the door and followed in.
Their figures disappeared into an invisible place. When Yamamoto Nanako was about to move the camera away, her breath caught when her eyes caught sight of several figures.
Several people wearing the same uniform followed closely behind, showing their work ID cards to the volunteers blocking the contestants' passage.
"WADA World Anti-Doping Agency, we need to follow the regulations and conduct post-match drug tests on Lu You and Xie Yunjun who just finished the show."
