Chapter 6, The Boxing King
Ah. Chen Cheng was taken aback, completely not expecting that he would actually want such a photo. He clicked his tongue twice and moved the computer back, casually adjusting the exposure—after all, this photo was beyond saving.
Since then, I have never stepped into the boxing ring again
Luo Youqian slightly frowned, lifted the door curtain, and walked in. He had spent most of his days in the boxing gym since he was very young, and he was quite familiar with the various equipment inside.
The new boxing gym opened by the coach is located on the street side of the sports center. Upon entering, there is a boxing ring, and the walls are adorned with illuminated signs featuring several striking English words.
Coach he shouted
Every action and movement flows with a kind of intense and unspoken primal power
Luo Youqian is a typical example of broad shoulders and a narrow waist. With his shirt removed, he reveals a large expanse of muscular lines that are extremely pronounced and evenly defined across his chest and abdomen. His facial features are sharp, and when he furrows his brows, his eyes appear fierce.
Luo Youqian raised his eyebrows, leaning lazily against the back of the chair as he doodled a few lines on the draft paper: "Why?"
Hearing "senior year," Chen Cheng poked his head out from behind the computer. Initially, he wanted to ask why a senior was still coming out from home, but then he considered that the person might not want to talk about it, so he changed the subject: "Senior year is quite exhausting, isn't it? I was also worn out during my senior year as an art student, and I switched to the liberal arts only in my senior year."
"Tomorrow evening, the challenge match," the coach said
Well
The sounds of mouse clicks and the scratching of pens across exam papers filled the room
Chen Cheng shifted his gaze away from the screen: "Luo Youqian?"
His voice is very deep, unlike what one would expect at this age, yet it is unexpectedly pleasant to hear
She said it casually that she chose to study science because she heard it would lead to better-paying jobs, but when she found it difficult to keep up, she switched to studying art. She could only score in the thirties on the physics exam
In the wheel battle, the strongest contender is selected as the champion each month, and the strongest contender of the following month challenges the champion. If the champion successfully defends their title, they can be called the boxing king
Luo Youqian let out a light laugh and glanced at her
No, I study acting and have been honing my skills on my own
In front lies hope, behind is the abyss, and she is often compelled to move forward
POWER
Luo Youqian's lips curled into a barely noticeable faint smile, which quickly returned to normal as he took out his phone: "Add me on WeChat."
Therefore, in the last few months, Chen Cheng slept only four to five hours almost every day, just to memorize the comprehensive subjects.
After sending the photo to him, Chen Cheng opened the photos that Luo Youqian had taken of her today. Although it cannot be said that the photography was technically skilled, it was indeed very evocative.
Growing up in the boxing ring, he is well aware of how to instill fear in his opponents and how to breach their psychological defenses even before the battle begins
Luo Youqian tidied himself up, picked up his phone, and went out. Chen Cheng from the next room was already gone.
Many boxing clubs not only provide opportunities for training during the day but also host challenge matches in the evening. Only those who have won city-level medals or higher are eligible to participate in these competitions
Coach: "So, are you still continuing to box?"
She glanced at the exam paper again; it was a physics test: "A science student, huh?"
As soon as he steps onto the boxing ring, he becomes the king here
Luo Youqian's eyes were deep and mysterious, and after a moment, he chuckled lightly and said, "I have moved out of my home, so it doesn't matter now."
Chen Cheng has an indescribable feeling about this set of photos. Throughout her life, she has never had it as easy as her peers.
I know, I know. The coach waved his hand and sighed, saying, "But that mistake was not your fault; you don't need to take it upon yourself."
If I say, "The coach looked straight over and said, 'Song Qi will also come to this challenge match.'"
"Do your parents still not like you boxing?" the coach asked
He sat there and finished a cigarette, the smoke a bluish-white, as if a tranquilizer had been injected into his bloodstream
He turned over, opened the fence, bent down, stepped inside, and looked at the coach: "Let's begin."
Luo Youqian crossed his legs, casually glanced at the screen, and curled his lips: "Alright."
Bare-chested, with a body full of muscles, the veins on the thighs are prominent and fearsome
FIRE
The man sitting on the bench with his back to him is his coach, who once won the club league championship, later was selected for the national team, but could no longer play due to a serious injury.
The new boxing gym is set up similarly to the place where he used to box, and he easily found the lounge.
Your physics is quite good, isn't it? Chen Cheng engaged in casual conversation, simply unable to sit still
Hmm, the third year of high school
Talking with Chen Cheng for a while has indeed calmed Luo Youqian's restless heart these days. Whether intentional or not, she always avoids your privacy, making the conversation quite pleasant.
The light in the bedroom has not yet been repaired, so he is studying at the dining table in the living room, with an exam paper in front of him. Chen Cheng is sitting opposite him, with a computer in front of her, editing photos, one leg resting on the chair
"Here he comes!" The coach was very pleased to see him, as he was indeed a proud protégé.
The first picture is a close-up of Luo Youqian's face. As soon as Chen Cheng saw it, he started laughing and pushed the computer in front of him, deliberately asking: "Hey, do you want it? I can fix it and send it to you."
Your speed in solving problems is dozens of times faster than mine back then she shrugged
Luo Youqian listened quietly until the end, then raised his head to look out the window. The sunlight was dazzling, and he gently squinted his eyes, smiling淡然地.
Luo Youqian has settled down here
I have never fought because of them" Luo Youqian looked at him, his jawbone unconsciously tightening
His fingers rested on the battle robe, and his pupils were tinted a light color by the light, as his fingertips gently caressed the fabric of the robe
After listening to Luo Youqian, the veins in his arms suddenly bulged, and his prominent Adam's apple rolled up and down. When he turned his head to look, there was a flicker of dark light in his eyes
Then, leaning down, a kiss was placed upon it, with reverence and solemnity
Sunlight bathes the entire body, with one side of the face illuminated and the other shrouded in darkness, embodying hope and the abyss
Chen Cheng scanned the QR code to add him as a friend, and it was quickly approved. The WeChat name is a period, and the profile picture is of a basketball star, neat and tidy
"By the way, I still don't know your name?" Chen Cheng looked at the screen, "Lord Luo?"
Luo Youqian moved forward, sat down beside him, facing the sunlight outside the window, and casually remarked: "Is the opening tomorrow?"
Studying art is more expensive
After staring for a while, she logged onto Weibo using her computer and selected four pictures to post
Luo Youqian pushed the exam paper over, with his name written at the top
However, the champion here is not a champion in the true sense of the word
I just spoke with the coach the day before yesterday, and he still insists on meeting in person. Today is the scheduled time.
Coach, I will not play anymore
Line
Distant mountains separate us, yet there are paths ahead
The coach gave him one of the locker room keys, which was his old number, specifically reserved for him.
KING
He didn't even make it to the podium, and thought these items should have been discarded, but unexpectedly, they were all kept by the coach
Luo Youqian has not participated in the club's challenge matches, as they are not formal competitions. Some individuals cannot be restrained even with dirty tactics. However, he has participated in several national competitions at the youth level
Luo Youqian had a bandage wrapped around his wrist in circles, and he raised his hand to tear it open with his teeth
Come
How should I send it to you? Chen Cheng asked
Luo Youqian recalled what the neighbor lady had called her last night, referring to her as a "big star," but seeing her current living situation, it was clear that she was not doing well, so she did not ask further.
The items in the cabinet are also ready, the boxing gloves are of his model, and there is a red and black battle robe, which is one of the prizes he received when he won the gold medal at the national competition
Passion, strength, king.
Generally
Upon waking, a splitting headache assailed him, his mind felt as if it were rusted. Luo Youqian sat at the edge of the bed, pressing his fingers against his forehead.
"After all, I used to be his coach, so it is only proper to support him." The coach observed his expression and timely asked, "Shall we practice?"
How could he come
At the age of 16, won the gold medal
He quickly wrote down the steps on the exam paper, and for some simple questions, he could arrive at the answers through mental calculation. In no time, he turned the page over
She finished editing the landscape photos, packed them, and sent them to Manager Fan's email. Then she stretched widely and reopened the other photos taken today
