During the Snowstorm

Chapter 19: The Great Tide of Time (1)

Chapter 19: The Great Tide of Time (1)

Yin Guo didn't understand at first.

After pondering for a few seconds, I understood. In fact, it seems that he doesn't understand, after all, Lin Yiyang said it very vaguely.

Lin Yiyang stretched out her right hand and asked her to give the bag of coffee beans to herself, Yin Guo to him, the beans and the hand. He took the paper package and threw it into the drawer, but he didn't let go.

When Lin Yiyang dragged her, what she thought was, no, she hasn't brushed her teeth yet.

"It seems that you can turn off the fire for your coffee." She made an excuse to avoid him.

"The pot is not well cooked," he whispered. "It will be poured out in a while."

Yin Guo was still struggling, no, she still had to brush her teeth.

She shook her head and ducked again.

The two people at the beginning were still subtly shy, so it was not easy to tell him, wait for me to brush my teeth first. Yin Guo's tangled expression was thoroughly seen by Lin Yiyang.

He turned his head and looked into her eyes: "repent?"

The bathroom door suddenly opened.

Wu Wei strolled out sleepy and saw such a picture: Lin Yiyang glanced at himself uncomfortably, turned off the fire, and waited for the expensive pot of coffee to cool down. Yin Guo leaned against the bar, a step away from Lin Yiyang, staring at the empty bar table in a daze.

Wu Weite wanted to look around to see if the legs of the two were next to each other under the bar.

By the way, I recalled that before I called him last night, where was Lin Yiyang?

Lin Yiyang pushed the drawer back with his legs, making a loud voice, reminding Wu Wei to put it away when he saw it.

Wu Wei coughed and rubbed his neck: "Morning."

Yin Guo looked up and smiled friendly.

"Didn't I disturb you yesterday? My sister's call." Wu Wei said.

She shook her head: "I didn't hear a few words."

"It's Lin Lin, have you heard of it? He also played nine goals."

"I heard," she said, "I have a game in Hangzhou at the end of April, maybe I can meet her as a referee."

Lin Lin, a senior in women's nine-ball, has always been ranked among the top in the world. In a certain year, he won three consecutive major tournaments. After fulfilling his wish, he directly announced his retirement and retired behind the scenes as a referee. It was said that the main reason for retiring was Lin Lin's poor health.

Yin Guo exudes thinking...

Could it be that Lin Lin and Lin Yiyang have an extraordinary relationship?

"Has your brother mentioned her all these years?" Lin Yiyang asked suddenly.

Afraid that Yin Guo would misunderstand him, he had no choice but to betray Meng Xiaodong.

This thought jumped too far, Yin Guo was stunned for a few seconds: "Is my brother familiar with her?"

"It's more than familiar," Wu Wei said when he saw Lin Yiyang, and he didn't have to hide it. "Lin Lin chased your brother for many years."

Yin Guo looked bewildered.

"Lin Lin is... your sister?" She remembered Wu Weigang saying this.

"It's a joke," Wu Wei said, "but the feelings are no different from that of a real sister."

Lin Yiyang explained: "Wu Wei was good at reading when he was a child, and he was a coward. He was often beaten by hooligans at the school gate. Lin Lin always protected him, and Wu Wei always regarded her as his sister."

"She's trying to protect Meng Xiaodong, right?" Wu Wei lifted up half of his sleeves and pointed to the position of his back shoulder, "Lin Lin has a tattoo here, which was left by a hooligan when he offended someone for your brother when he was sixteen years old. Scar, she finds it ugly."

What kind of gossip is this?

"My brother really didn't mention a word." She tried to recall the two people, but they didn't meet at all.

Lin Yiyang and Wu Wei looked at each other.

"Did my brother like her?" she asked softly, afraid of being heard by her cousin sleeping in the room.

Lin Yiyang shook his head: "I don't know."

He poured three cups of coffee, one per person.

Yin Guo looked at Wu Wei.

Wu Wei also shook his head: "What the **** is your brother thinking, you know." After speaking, he said indignantly, "Your brother is only the fifth in love, and he has been suppressed by Jiang Yang this year."

Yin Guo reflexively protected his brother: "Jiang Yang is the fourth this year, and he was beaten by my brother the year before."

Seeing her serious face, Wu Wei was amused: "Yes, yes, let's not be serious about their achievements, how many years have we fought."

Lin Yiyang listened to them, squeezed the mouth of the white porcelain cup with two fingers, and took a sip of coffee.

As if none of this had anything to do with him.

Wu Wei didn't say anything else, thinking that he "should go", so he took a few sips of coffee, took the key, and left.

When the two of them got along alone, they returned to the original atmosphere.

"Would you mind listening to us talk?" he asked.

Yin Guo shook his head and asked him: "Will you be annoying if you listen to my childhood?"

Lin Yiyang also shook his head, anything would do, but unfortunately no one told him.

The beginning of a relationship is the most beautiful.

I don't know you, you don't know me, and I long to know all, all of you, and you too.

Everything he said to Wu Wei was new and interesting to her, about Lin Yiyang, about the past of the man in front of her. She listened carefully to every word.

Lin Yiyang pushed the coffee cup to her and let her drink it. Yin Guo was alert again to the fact that he hadn't brushed his teeth: "I'll brush my teeth before I can eat." After speaking, he ran into the bathroom.

When the door closed, Lin Yiyang couldn't help laughing.

So cute.

When Yin Guo came out, Meng Xiaotian was already awake and chatted with Lin Yiyang there.

Lin Yiyang saw that the coffee was cold, and re-brewed a pot for Yin Guo, but it had not boiled yet. The two stared at each other for a few seconds across from their cousin.

"Wait a minute." Lin Yiyang pointed to the coffee pot.

She said "um".

While waiting, I thought of another thing: "I'm going to move out today."

Lin Yiyang looked at her.

"It was the club's army that came, and the coach asked me to stay at the hotel," she explained. "Everyone has to gather."

"Let's go now?" Meng Xiaotian was surprised, "My brother really did, and tied you back as soon as he came."

Yin Guo's words were reasonable and reasonable. Lin Yiyang didn't think much about it, and said directly: "Pack up, I'll take you there."

"Aren't you going back to school?" She remembered that he was going to catch the train after lunch.

"Send you first," he said.

It really doesn't work, change the train back to DC.

"Then I'll clean up first," she said immediately.

In this way, I can pack it up before lunch, and after delivering it to the hotel, I can go to the train station in time.

Lin Yiyang nodded: "Go."

Meng Xiaotian found that no one was arguing with him, so he glanced left and right.

Just as Yin Guo took a step forward, Lin Yiyang grabbed her wrist and pulled him back.

This time the coffee is really good, and it is the most satisfying to be able to catch a sip.

I haven't let go of my hand since I pulled it back...

Meng Xiaotian understood it completely, and let go of his short hair: "What, sister, you clean up, I don't want to see my brother. When he is gone, I will go to the hotel to see you. I'm hungry, I'm starving, I'll go eat first. Now, don't wait for you two."

Cousin did not delay and walked quickly.

Unexpectedly, the front-footed cousin left and had a face-to-face with a voter from Dongxincheng downstairs.

The people of Dongxincheng like to practice in the morning. A group of children train in the morning, and they insist on coming to the club where my uncle worked as a part-timer for private training. As a result, all came early in the morning, the training of the younger generation, the meal of the older generation...

Yin Guo didn't want to be looked at by all of Lin Yiyang's friends several times within an hour on the same day, and hid in the house and cleaned up. Lin Yiyang was absent-minded outside, sipping his second cup of hot coffee.

Jiang Yang wanted to chat with him: "Help me have a drink too."

Lin Yiyang didn't hear it: "I didn't sleep all night last night, you stay by yourself, I'll go get some sleep."

Half a good face is gone.

Yin Guo wanted to go out halfway, afraid that he would run into a few men alone, so he sent Lin Yiyang a WeChat.

Xiaoguo: When are they leaving?

Lin: We will go first.

Xiaoguo: ...I dare not go out.

Lin: ?

Xiaoguo: I feel embarrassed.

Lin: I let them go to the bathroom, you go out, they come out again.

Xiaoguo: No, no, we won't be able to meet again in the future.

Xiaoguo: Forget it, I'll bite the bullet and go out.

Lin::)

Lin: Let's go.

Xiaoguo: Hmm.

After Yin Guo packed up and was ready to go, Lin Yiyang found a spare key and threw it to Jiang Yang: "I'm back to school, you can do whatever you want."

He carried Yin Guo's suitcase and went out first.

Yin Guolin stepped out of the apartment door, his back was burned by the eyes of a group of people, he worked hard for a long time, maintained his composure, turned back, and waved to the people who ordered takeout and gathered together to eat, which was considered goodbye.

When the apartment door collided, several big men looked at each other: Lin Yiyang went back to school, the girl followed with a suitcase?

As expected of Xiao Yang, who never abides by the rules and acts out of common sense, it is the same when it comes to love.

Quick, accurate, ruthless.

"Prepare for a red envelope," Jiang Yang commented, "don't embarrass Dongxincheng."

"How much is enough?" Fan Wen is a real person, took out his mobile phone and checked online banking.

Chen Anan thought for a while: "This year's bonus."

Jiang Yang has no objection, thinks it is a good luck, and celebrates finding his brother.

Fan Wen hurriedly looked at No. 4 in the world without any objection... Silently put away his mobile phone, anyway, I'm far worse than you, who is ranked in the top ten. I just complained silently in my heart. Anyway, I gave you so many red envelopes, and my future wife will not give it a second look. Sorry, I didn't really look at it. Sorry, I'll take a closer look at what it looks like next time.

***

The Open has designated hotels that offer discounts for guests.

Therefore, most foreign players here will choose to stay in the same hotel, train in the hotel ball room, or train in two nearby ball rooms. Yin Guo checked in and found that the coach and the people from the same club were in the hotel ball room.

Seeing that Lin Yiyang didn't reject him, she took him to the third floor.

The people from Beicheng just arrived today, so Meng Xiaodong directly let him book the venue, so that everyone could practice their hands and adapt to the local time difference.

When Yin Guo pushed the door open, the eight nine-ball tables and four snooker tables outside were full, and they were all standing there. When everyone saw that the little junior sister was coming, they waved and greeted each other.

"Why are you all here?" Yin Guo looked at the people beside the snooker table strangely.

Someone replied: "I was going to tour the championship, but the sixth brother said that he would come to the United States first, probably because he was worried about your first professional tournament."

In Beicheng, Meng Xiaodong is the sixth oldest, so he is naturally the one who is talking about him.

Yin Guo nodded: "Is my coach inside?"

She just answered the phone and said it was in the lounge.

"Yes," replied the other, "go in, it's waiting for you."

Yin Guo looked around and saw a row of chairs by the window.

She beckoned to Lin Yiyang, Lin Yiyang lowered her head, and she whispered softly, "Twenty minutes at most...or half an hour."

Lin Yiyang nodded, and by the way, patted her head: "Don't worry."

Yin Guo smiled at him and ran away reluctantly.

To be honest, Lin Yiyang's action was intentional.

He is different from Yin Guo, Yin Guo entered the ball room on this floor, like coming home, everyone is acquaintances, and he will not notice how many differences and scrutiny. But Lin Yiyang knew from the moment he stepped into the door that everyone in the audience was looking at him.

including now.

He walked to the window, didn't sit, just leaned against the glass window, watching the players in Beicheng practice ball, especially the snooker side.

He has not paid attention to the competition these years, but because Wu Wei is still playing, he has mentioned several new seedlings in Beicheng many times, and showed him a few video of the game. The evaluation is: It is the same as Meng Xiaodong.

One of the people Lin Yiyang has seen in the video is now beside the green table of snooker, wiping the club head with smart powder, and staring at himself and Yin Guo without hesitation since entering the door, without a second The man who looked away seemed to be called... Li Qingyan.

From entering, Lin Yiyang watched the man take a few shots. Like Meng Xiaodong, the rhythm was steady, and the shot was strictly controlled within 25 seconds. That day, after Lin Yiyang discovered Meng Xiaodong's new habit, he checked the rules of various competitions.

It's the rules of the Super League and they're harsh.

Many other international events do not have this 25-second requirement. However, Meng Xiaodong is obviously training himself, including his players, with the strictest rules of the game.

A minute later, the two big boys on Jiuqiu's side who were familiar with Yin Guo crossed a safety line between everyone present and Lin Yiyang with a smile.

"Brother, it's a pleasure meeting." The taller leaned on Lin Yiyang's left and stretched out his right hand.

Lin Yiyang stretched out his right hand and shook it symbolically.

"Do you play ball?" asked the shorter one next to him.

If it is a professional, no one will know him, so everyone thinks he is a layman.

Lin Yiyang saw that these two were quite friendly, with a lot of curiosity, so he leaned there and said casually, "Occasionally."

With ears pricked, everyone understands: amateur.

Therefore, Yin Guo came to New York first, and inexplicably let an amateur catch up. These people don't dare to think about it, but what does Brother Li, who grew up with Yin Guo's childhood sweetheart, think?

Beside the snooker table, the opponent who has been practicing with Li Qingyan, Nitro, picked up a ball and pointed at the green table in front of him with a smile: "Entering our Beicheng private court, according to the rules, you have to take a shot. "

Lin Yiyang shook his head: "Don't play snooker."

No one could make him break this rule, including Meng Xiaodong, who only made him take a half step back.

"Nine balls?" Someone pointed to the blue ball table not far away.

Lin Yiyang thought about it, and let it go.

The Nine Balls are young and energetic, and they are the contestants of this Open. It's impossible to let yourself not play well and let go of water, but you have to play seriously. It's not very kind to play such a game with a professional player before the open competition.

So, he shook his head again: "Don't fight."

Everyone looked at each other, and it turned out that they were playing Chinese eight-ball.

"Give him a middle eight," Glass said, "use a nine-ball table."

After Nitro finished speaking, everyone was looking at Li Qingyan.

Li Qingyan finally opened his mouth, and he spoke very politely: "The place where we can enter the reserved venue is either my own person or a friend. If you want to be a friend, just take a shot, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

Glass finally answered: "Unless you say that you never touch or understand this, we won't force it."

Lin Yiyang looked at the situation and knew that it would be unreasonable not to go through a scene today.

He could see that this Li Qingyan was a key figure, and it was estimated that he had either chased Yin Guo in the past, or had been together before, and at least he was still thinking about it to this day.

He left the window, walked straight to the snooker table where Li Qingyan and Nizi practiced, and patted the edge: "That's it."

In the ball room, it gradually became quiet.

"Don't you not play snooker?" Li Qingyan smiled at him across the table.

"Yes, don't play." Lin Yiyang looked around, looking for a public club.

"Nitrogen, give it to him." Li Qingyan said.

Glass handed Lin Yiyang his personal club: "I still want to play, so take it easy."

Lin Yiyang took the cue and patted Glass on the back shoulder: "Thanks."

There were still three **** left on the table, Lin Yiyang used his hands to completely clear the table, leaving only one red ball and one white ball.

Lin Yiyang pointed to the red ball: "You can place the red ball as you like, I'll play it."

This sentence, all the people watching the fun were shocked.

Too crazy, dare to play with a ball?

Lin Yiyang picked up the smart powder on the edge of the table, and said again: "Fifty balls, three times I missed the bag, I lost."
