After a long time, the young man's eyes finally focused. When he spoke, his voice was hoarse with sleep, gentle and slow.
"No one's outside?" he asked. "How strange that you found me."
"Yeah, no! This year everyone is snowboarding, we're all going to be out of work!"
When the snowboard coach was asked this question, he looked back at his colleagues who were idle in the lounge, and immediately started to talk, muttering, "Really? Haven't you heard the widely circulated saying, 'Skiing will eventually return to snowboarding'? Have you seen a few people jumping out of a helicopter wearing a snowboard? Hey!
, why don’t these young kids understand…”
The people around him were chattering, Shan Chong listened to half of what they were saying, and then he stopped listening after he realized it was just some complaining nonsense.
Take care of yourself and put on your coat;
Then he slowly pulled up his face shield, covering most of his face, leaving only a small section of his nose and a pair of eyes;
Climbing up, his legs dropped from the edge of the bench;
When he stood up, he supported his waist.
The person who was chattering beside him stopped immediately.
"What's wrong?" The ski instructor stared at his hand on his waist nervously, "Does your waist hurt?"
Shan Chong followed his gaze, lowered his head, paused, and took his hands off his waist: "The chair is too hard, it's tiring to sleep on, can you get a cushion next time?"
"..." The big brother of the double board coach said it was ridiculous, "How about asking the leader to put a bed here for you?"
Shan Chong paused, hesitant but also excited: "Is it okay? It's not okay, right?"
Wanted to curse at the double board coach: "..."
At this time, Shan Chong bent down to put on his shoes, stood up, and stretched his head over the storage box to look outside——
From a distance, I saw two young girls standing outside the coaching lounge. They didn't look very tall.
……fine.
Tall people have a higher center of gravity, so snowboarding always takes more effort. Even though Dan Chong is 178cm tall, he still has to take more turns than others.
"Two people." Shan Chong said briefly, turning his head to look at the big brother who was calling him, "Newbies? I'll lead them all? One against two?"
There was a gleam of condemnation in his eyes, which read "You want to tire me to death?"
The snowboard coach immediately felt guilty: "How can that be possible! Isn't Lao Yan also skiing at our resort today? Can you call him up?"
"What if I can't call you?"
"Is there anyone you can't persuade? Does he still want to learn how to jump? ... Besides, it's almost two o'clock now, and the snow outside is slippery. What can I do by myself? Wouldn't it be nice to teach a newbie before going home and earn some money for dinner and ski tickets?"
“That makes sense.”
"Yes!"
"You can go sell insurance after the snow season ends," Shan Chong said as he took out his phone from his pocket, looking for someone, "You might become a top seller. It's a waste of your talent to be a ski coach."
While he was on the phone, he looked out at the two little girls waiting outside.
This time I watched it with some purpose.
There are two people outside.
One of them was thinner, wearing a gray and white one-piece ski suit, with short hair and a clean and neat look. She took off her mask and held it in her hand. She was quite pretty.
The other one was wearing black ski pants with a light pink sweater underneath. She had a white down jacket on her elbows. Her hair was tied into two small braids on both sides of her ears. Her hair was a bit messy and fluffy...
She giggled at what her companion said.
My eyes are filled with laughter.
Shan Chong didn't hesitate much. After notifying Lao Yan to hurry down the mountain for class, he hung up the phone and made his choice.
"I want the one in overalls."
"Well," the ski instructor glanced outside casually, "she laughs so well, which is quite cute, isn't it?"
"No. The other one is too thin." Shan Chong said, "He has more flesh and a good personality, so he can resist falling. He can't stand the annoying and pretentious ones."
“…”
…
If Wei knew why she was chosen, her dignity would make her give up skiing right now.
But she didn't know.
So when the front desk lady told her "your coach is here", she looked up and saw the young man wearing a black snow suit, a black face protector, and holding a snowboard walking towards her. She was so handsome that she immediately cursed him in her heart.
The benefits of skiing are reflected here——
Everyone wears a face mask.
Just show a pair of eyes.
How ugly can a pair of eyes be?
So as long as you have a slender figure and dress coolly, everyone is Takashi Kashiwabara.
Some people say that chatting up people at the ski resort is like opening a blind box.
As long as you don't open the face mask, there's a chance that there's a hidden item inside.
"Hello, I'm your coach."
The voice had the hoarseness that comes with just waking up.
Wearing a face shield, Kashiwahara Takashi stopped in front of her, lowered his head slightly, and said politely but somewhat awkwardly, "Your friend's coach is on the way here, please come with me first to get the snowboard and snowshoes..."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Wei Zhi had just enough time to yell "Ah!" and turned around anxiously to look at Jiang Nanfeng, who was staring at the back of Kashiwahara Takashi wearing a face shield and said, "Your coach looks unusual."
Wei Zhi: "What can you see with a face shield on?"
Jiang Nanfeng: "Outline, outline! Can't you see how high the nose is?"
Wei Zhi said in a reserved manner, "Tsk."
Jiang Nanfeng was not used to her tricks, and said with a frown: "You don't know the real thing, do you? You sneer at me, right? Then let's--"
Wei Zhi: "No, bye."
After saying that, the little girl fluttered her wings like a little chick, and hopped to catch up with Kashiwabara Takashi who was wearing a face protector... She turned around to look at Jiang Nanfeng and said that she was the one who lost.
Wei Zhi took two steps forward and rushed to the freshly-made coach, asking as he walked, "Brother, what's your name?"
There was no response at first.
Wei Zhi was very puzzled. After a while, he was about to ask again when he heard the person next to him squeeze out a sentence from behind his face guard in an awkward tone: "...Coach?"
Weizhi: “Ah?”
This time the voice was unequivocal: "Just call me 'coach'."
Weizhi: “…”
…
Skiing requires special equipment, including helmets, gloves, goggles, snowboards and snowshoes, all of which are professional and indispensable. Some ski resorts even rent ski suits for tourists who just want to experience the sport of skiing.
Weizhi was taken to use the QR code on his mobile phone to get the ski ticket and ski card, and then he went to rent equipment.
At this time in the afternoon, there were few people in front of the equipment rental counter and there was no need to queue.
Wei Zhi turned around and looked at the "coach" brother.
The "coach" was very helpful: "First, take the snowboard, snowshoes... helmets, goggles and gloves. They are in the other window."
Weizhi said "Oh" and pulled his head back, flicking the ski card in his hand. The ski card contains information about the rental items, deposit, and the card is also required to get on the cable car.
She was fiddling with the cigar in her hand.
"How high?"
Weizhi heard a slow voice coming from the back of his head, which sounded a bit muffled through the face guard.
She blinked once, turned around, looked into the eyes of the person behind her, and blinked again.
"1.62 meters...about that."
"Depending on height and weight, the length of the board used by each person is different. Generally, the height is reduced by about 15cm to 20cm." The person behind her walked forward and took her place in front of the rental counter without leaving a trace. "Don't lie to the doctor when you get to the hospital."
A light and floating sentence.
Shan Chong rested one hand on the counter, leaning against it, staring at a stain on the wall in a daze, without even noticing Wei Zhi's expression.
The staff in charge of equipment rental came and first glanced at the newbie Weizhi who was holding a snow card and was obviously here to rent equipment. He moved his lips and was about to ask "Rent snowboards or double boards"... At this time, a hand reached out, took the snow card from the newbie's hand, and handed it to the staff.
"143's board."
The staff member seemed to have just realized that there was someone beside him, and he shifted his attention, looking up and down in confusion at the young man in front of him who was covering his face tightly.
Burton AK457 snowsuit, Burton Custom X snowboard, Deeluxe snowshoes, Avith X The northface co-branded snow goggles...
This outfit is not particularly professional, but it still costs about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
He was fully equipped, but he wasn't wearing the jacket that ski coaches wear.
The ski resort prohibits private instruction by anyone other than the ski resort coaches and special partners.
This guy is covering himself so tightly, I can’t even recognize which big shot with special cooperation authority he is!
………………Not even wearing a teaching identity sleeve!
Just when he was full of questions, the man leaning against the counter spoke again: "Get me a pair of 143-inch sneakers. What size do you wear?"
He turned and asked Wei Zhi.
"36 and a half, or 37."
He turned his head back.
"Get size 36 shoes."
The voice sounded familiar. The staff member was stunned for a moment, then he stepped forward and carefully looked at the person in front of him. After staring at each other for more than ten seconds, he exclaimed, and slapped the table: "Brother Chong, who am I looking for? It turns out to be you! Which mountain was so windy today that it blew you out of the mountain?"
"Well, there are too many people these days, and there are not enough people inside, so they were arrested." Shan Chong glanced at the clock on the wall behind him, and then tapped the table with his fingers, "143 board."
The staff member said "OK" and was about to turn around to take it, but then he glanced at the lucky girl who won the jackpot today. He saw that the elementary school girl was standing there at attention, like a wooden stick, and smiled: "This girl doesn't look tall either. Is 141cm enough?"
Weizhi: “…”
Can I talk to you?
Shan Chong glanced at her again and said firmly: "Take the 143 one, it will be suitable."
Wei Zhi: "Yes, I'm 1.62 meters tall!"
Shan Chong: “It has nothing to do with this.”
Weizhi: “?”
Shan Chong looked at her deeply.
Weizhi: “?”
[Depending on height and weight, the length of the board used by each person is different...]
height.
and weight (stress).
Weizhi: “…”
I was offended.
When Wei Zhi looked at her coach with resentment, the latter completely blocked her emotional gaze, bent down and took out a crumpled coach armband from his pocket, shook it open, fiddled with it for a long time, and then casually put it on his arm in a wrinkled manner.
Wei Zhi looked at him for a while and suddenly asked, "Are you really the coach?"
The man who was trying to smooth out his coach's armband raised his eyelids and glanced at her when he heard her.
Wei Zhi: "Why are you wearing different clothes from other coaches? They all have the same jacket, but you don't."
As soon as I finished speaking, I felt the air around me become quiet for a few seconds.
Under Shan Chong's calm gaze, Wei Zhi began to worry whether he had asked something he shouldn't have asked. Could this person be a temporary worker who hadn't been hired yet? Otherwise, why was he the only one left when all the other coaches were out teaching? What should he do? Would he be hated and bullied for asking so many questions?
At this point, he looked away.
A light, floating laugh came from behind the face mask.
“Because I’m awesome.”
He said.
…
When the "coach" was carrying two boards and walking towards the locker, Weizhi followed behind him with his snowshoes in hand, head lowered, and feet turned inward.
The "coach" brother is not wearing a ski coach uniform, and his snow suit does not have a name card like other coaches, but wherever he passes, everyone seems to know him and want to say hello to him——
Either call him "A Chong", or call him "Brother Chong", or even more extreme is calling him "Grandpa Chong".
That scene...
Have you ever seen the villain Scar in "The Lion King" standing on a high platform, with his chin raised and watching the coyotes and Shiba Inus bowing to him?
That's the taste.
Wow.
Weizhi took out her cell phone in panic, looking for her friend like a small boat that was overturned by a storm and was lost looking for a safe haven.
[Girl Ji: My coach is Scar!!! The one from The Lion King! 》
But Haven ignored her.
【Girl:……】
【Girl: Where are the people???】
It was not until the "coach" put down the board, pointed at a chair and simply ordered "Sit down and put on your shoes" that Wei Zhi, with a confused look on his face, sat down on the chair as instructed.
The safe haven finally responded.
【Ginger Juice: Oh, my coach is here.】
【Girl: And then? 】
【Ginger Juice: Do you know Mitsui Shou? 】
[Girl:? ? ? ? ? ? 】
【Ginger Juice: So from now until the ski resort closes, there are two and a half hours, please don't disturb us.】
【Ginger Juice: See you outside the door when the show is over.】
[Girl:? ? ? ? ? ? 】
[Girl: Why don't you bother me anymore? ]
[Girl: No! Wait! ]
[Girl Ji: Mitsui Shou is not a basketball player???]
[Girl Ji: Have you met a cross-border skier at a domestic ski resort? Ask him to show you his health code.]
【Ginger Juice: You don’t allow people to be both virtuous and talented? You can ski and play basketball at the same time?】
【Girl:……】
【Ginger Juice: "Coach, I want to practice skiing." 】
【Ginger juice: Really delicious.】
【Ginger juice: Don’t bother. 】
【Ginger juice: Debt. 】
"Put down your phone and stop playing." A calm voice floated from above my head, "Put on your shoes."
Immersed in the same warm atmosphere dominated by the homeroom teacher in middle school, Weizhi put the cell phone back into his trouser pocket the first second.
